Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

When it was over, the two of them both had satisfied looks on their faces showing that they had gotten what they wanted.

Once we saw this, both the Merman King and I let out sighs of relief.

We had been sitting there listening to them the entire time, but there were just too many technical terms that it had been hard to understand what they were talking about.

The only thing that I really understood was the price that they settled on.

It was actually a bit lower than the one that I quoted in the first place, but that was only because there were other conditions that were added into this. Along with the Glowing Seaweed, there would now be other things sent by the Merman Empire.

These would be things that would be used to trade for the lube.

These were precious products from the Merman Empire such as pearls and such that normally wouldn’t be seen above the ocean. That made them very precious and valuable among humans.

However, there were plenty of these things that were found under the ocean which meant that they had no value at all to the Merman Empire. They were things that were considered trash in the Merman Empire.

Of course, it wasn’t as if the Merman King and Queen didn’t know the value of these items in human society. They had their connection to the Tide Empire and had trades with them, so they knew how expensive these things could become.

It was just that it would take a lot of time and effort to turn these things into money.

It wasn’t as if they were lacking in money, what they needed more of was the lube that they were trading for.

So instead of spending all that effort to turn their trash into money, it was easier for them to just take this cheaper price to exchange for the lube.

In their eyes, the lube was worth more.

It was all about what an item was worth to each party.

After the deal was set, the mood was much more relaxed.

The other mermen had just been so focused on eating that they didn’t care about the negotiations that were happening. They trusted their king and queen to take care of everything after all.

And once this matter was set, the Merman King and Queen had more time to look around the table.

When they had arrived, they had been so focused on the lube that they hadn’t noticed a certain thing before this. But now that they had settled the matter of the lube, they realized that...

”A dwarf and an elf?” The Merman King and Queen were surprised to see Moon and Elsa sitting at the table with us.

The mermaid royal guards were also surprised to hear this as they had been focused on other things before this as well. When they looked up, there was the oil from the carpaccio that was on their lips which made them look quite strange.

Both Moon and Elsa had been sitting at the table the entire time, though they had been sitting on the other end since there wasn’t much for them to do here. But they were still at the table, so the group from the Merman Empire group should have been able to see them the entire time.

After the Merman King and Queen said this, there was an awkward silence that hung in the air. The way that they looked at Moon and Elsa, it was as if they didn’t know what to say.

It was almost as if there was some kind of awkward history that was between them.

The Merman King eventually said with a sigh, ”It’s been a long time since our races have had a chance to communicate with each other. The last time that this happened was during the racial wars.”

Both Moon and Elsa nodded, though they seemed a bit hesitant.

That was because they had never lived through the racial wars.

The only things that they had heard about this were from the stories that had been passed down through their race.

Though through those stories, they knew why the Merman Empire group acted awkward. After another long silence, the Merman King said, ”Though I wasn’t the one that ruled over the Merman Empire during that time, I do want to apologize to you on behalf of the mermen on how the racial wars ended.”

This time, it was Elsa and Moon that had awkward looks on their faces.

After all, it wasn’t as if they could represent their races to accept this.

But at the same time, it wasn’t as if they could just ignore what the Merman King was saying.

So there was another awkward silence that lingered in the air before Elsa said, ”Forget it. It’s not something that we can talk about here since neither of us has the authority to accept this. At the same time, this is something that happened a long time ago, so there’s nothing that can be done now.”

Moon just gave a simple nod to show her agreement.

The Merman King and Queen gave an awkward nod before falling silent again.

It seemed that something had happened between the mermaids, the dwarves, and the elves in

the past.

It seemed that it was related to the racial wars of ancient times.

Since they were all from other races, it was most likely that they had once been allies that had their alliance broken because of something.

Once they had finished with this, the Merman King and Queen turned to look at me as if they had a question to ask me, but they didn’t know how to ask me.

But seeing the way that they looked at me, I could guess what they were thinking.

I introduced both Moon and Elsa as my wives.

The Merman King and Queen were surprised to hear this since they had never heard anything

like this before.

Elves and dwarves choosing to marry a human...this was just too rare.

Not to mention marrying the king of a human country.
