Klea was one of the elders who oversaw the military of the city of Vant Jeroi, she was a young mermaid who had intelligence above all other merfolk and abilities that were almost equal to those of Irving and the other elders. One of the main problems after his appointment as an elder was her laziness in action.
She liked to fall asleep wherever she could, one of her best beds was the roof of the elder's palace. She was always punished after sleeping there. She became the youngest and laziest elder ever in this city, many motions to remove her from her position but the elders refused.
The elder believed in Klea and his strength, she once brought a large sea beast when the city of Vant Jeroi was short of food.
She was the one who devised the idea to deal with the legend of his rampaging leviathan. She was also the one who found the location of the sleeping leviathan with her army.
It was her achievements that made the elders refuse to kick her out of his position. After all that, Klea only focused on her sleep.
Moments after Ariel and John's arrival. Klea was summoned to go there but before she could see Elder Irving there as well. Klea stared at it with a smile with an idea creeping into her head.
Klea quietly entered the palace of the elders sat on her chair and fell asleep there quickly. She was soon awakened by Elder Irving yelling at her who woke her up from her sleep.
. . .
Klea tried to understand the code given by the elder Irving with a cool head. Elder Riving is a person who is said to be able to rival heroes who have come to the deep sea with ease. Elder Irving's danger code signifies that mass death can occur if he is not at fault.
I understand the elders and think Klea understands the code with her extraordinary intelligence. Klea looked at Ariel with a sharp gaze, she saw her long greenish silver hair, and her body that was larger than an ordinary human. She didn't have the protection of the water spirit king but was able to survive in this deep sea.
Humans are fragile creatures, they can't even dive to depths exceeding 100 meters without assistance. One of the heroes who has achieved this is a hero who once challenged Leviathan. With the help of the undine water spirit king, humans were able to get here.
Fortunately, no one has ever been able or knew about this city at all. Only the undine and the merfolks knew.
Looking at the human in front of her, he couldn't help but be fascinated by his slightly alluring appearance.
If Klea wasn't a woman then she would be fascinated by her. "What should I do here" Ariel was already getting bored and didn't understand why she was being sent here.
"I'm here to keep an eye on John, fulfilling my dad's agreement," added Ariel, who was getting more and more unsettled and felt confined here. Ariel released her dangerous aura as her words stabbed the elder Irving who was buying time for John.
"Calm down, John is going to fish for those fish you were promised for" Elder Irving was flanked by Ariel trying to win her over with a little panic. Klea who saw it happen couldn't help but have to intervene, she felt a huge burden would come if someone messed up this.
Elder Irving felt a sense of danger that he had never felt before. After a slight display of anger from Ariel, he felt his whole body tremble and chose to fight back. He could have locked Ariel in the current but the person he called Father would come to this city.
Elder Irving will ask Klea to drop Ariel off at her resting place first before she meets John again. "Klea, take our guests to the resting place first" Elder Riving spoke to Klea.
Klea heard the command and understood what she should do, after all, she was the owner of the tactical genius title. Elder Irving trusts him to accompany Ariel while he and John straighten it all out. Although this is a bad move according to Klea, it is the best option.
"I don't want to rest, I was ordered by my father to keep an eye on the little fish named John as he promised my father."
Ariel, who was about to be escorted, didn't even want to move in her place and insisted on keeping an eye on John. She knew something was going wrong, so if she kept up with their game then she would lose John.
"Miss Ariel, I'm klea. I am the one who accompanies you... about your agreement with John... Don't worry, we Merfolk are the ones who keep their promises."
Klea's gentle words persuaded the tense Ariel and all this time she was already sleepy, she didn't sleep for a few days to accompany her father. For some reason, Ariel could trust the merfolk in front of her right now.
Klea, good job, I know I can always trust you," Elder Irving said in his mind.
Klea walked accompanied by Klea who was being escorted into the left gate. Ariel walked in looking at the unique architecture of the Merfolk palace. The corals that became the pillars amazed her from now on and there are many things that she cannot express with the words about this architecture.
During his life as a snake, all he did was eat, sleep, and just get bigger. Ever since she became a high human, she was able to see something bigger. With her father, she felt nothing but obedience to him but after being separated like this.
She felt what the name of the beauty was, she was very amazed by this beautiful building, inhabited by many people and becoming a high place for many people. Derek who was asleep and Ariel who was very far away from the crane made Ariel's mind closed with natural obedience to her father open up a little.
[High Human Ariel has been synchronized with her]
[Ariel's high human natural talent will awaken]
[Unique skill Architecture (level 1) acquired]
Ariel, whose mind finally opened up from her past and the natural restraint of the transformation from a snake to a high human, finally opened. For the first time, she felt his name become human, something he had never thought of when she became a snake.
[Architecture (level 1): An ability that can make you build buildings according to your imagination and the materials you have collected. Let go of your imagination and gather the materials; active skills; MP cost : 700]
Ariel finally after her mind opened, she was able to see her status. She opened his status board, she was a high human, no longer a snake. And her status increased a lot after becoming a high human. And one thing that concerns her is that she is now able to get a job.
[Error] [Job can be selected when the user reaches level 10]
After these incidents, Ariel gets a new goal, she will level up and return to her father afterward.
"This is where you sleep"
Klea showed Ariel the room with the sponge as her floor.
"Thank you, forgive me for my rudeness before"
Ariel smiled at Klea as a sign of hospitality. Klea beside her was even stunned. She felt that Ariel had borne fruit from a statue that only followed orders until she became a gentle personality.
