Chapter 16: To the Mermaid Country

After that event, the small mermaid started to swim around me happily. It’s kinda cute.

Living things must be cute in order to be protected after all. I think this is an absolute truth of the universe.

That’s why I’m 【The Enlightened One】. It is my cause to learn the truth of the universe.

…I’m not a lolicon.

It’s really important so I’ll say it twice; I’m really not a lolicon.

By the way, this small mermaid is quite talkative. Her name seems to be Pinky. It’s a sweet name. She said she was called as such due to her pink hair.

What a cheap naming sense. In Japan, it would be like naming Kuroko to a girl with black hair. Though, I do not know this world’s cultures.

According to Pinky’s story, it seems the fishmen attacked the mermaid country. With 300 fishmen that brought 3 sea serpents with them, the mermaid country immediately fell. And now, fishmen have ruled over.

Pinky cutely explained that sea serpents are very strong opponents with large gestures.

「The sea serpent repels most attacks with its hard scales! Also, also, its water breath is so powerful it destroys everything! It is a monster that might not be defeated even if challenged with the country’s 100 soldiers!」

But it was defeated by me with only 2 punches. It might be that I’m really strong.

And so, only Pinky was forced to escape by the queen of the mermaid country. She coaxed Pinky to call for help; casting tangle magic on her to hide her appearance and help her ran away safely.

It’s amazing that she let a small child to escape alone. That queen. But why does she ordered Pinky to escape alone?

I can understand Pinky’s words but I can only convey things to her with gestures. It’s really inconvenient being voiceless.

The variations of my gestures are totally poor. As of now, nodding means affirmation, shaking sideways is denial and doubt is expressed by tilting the head. In addition, I draw pictures on the ocean floor to communicate. When I was a human, I can express my intentions using facial expressions and line of sight but now that I’m a golem, I could not use that method. We can only learned the importance of something when it is gone.

Pinky keeps talking joyfully. At first, even though she talks a lot, she sometimes bit her tongue.

「The tangle magic is difficult to use and there are only few people in the mermaid country who can cast it. Currently, only my mother the queen can use it!」

Pinky proudly spoke about the amazingness of tangle magic. I did not disrupt her. From hercurrent story, I understood that the queen is Pinky’s mother so she let her escape.

Did the queen named her Pinky? Too bad, I’m really disappointed.

While listening to the little mermaid Pinky’s tales, we aimed for the mermaid country.

I’m not a lolicon!

It is important so I’ll say it twice. I’m really not a lolicon!
