Zongman: The only god killer adopted by the Nakano family – Chapter 410

“Eh?! No, that’s not the case! Mr. Nakano is just a friend I just met. He’s not what you think he is, Mary!”

As soon as the mermaid girl finished speaking, Lei’s face turned red, her ears felt hot, and she hurriedly explained.

What Mary just said was Rei’s dream. Different from the goal of letting heretics and adventurers coexist, what Mary just said was Rei’s selfish dream, a secret that Rei had always kept deep in her heart and only told Mary, the new heretic.

Because she is a bird-human monster, Lei has no arms, and the special structure of her wings also prevents her from truly hugging someone, so Lei has always hoped to meet her loved one, who will hug her gently, just a hug, Lei does not dare to hope too much.

I remember that when Lei told Mary this secret, she specifically told her not to talk about it carelessly, let alone tell it to anyone else.

At first, Mary agreed to it, but now she broke down the moment she saw Nakano Yuu? !

“Eh? Isn’t it?”

Hearing 22 words, Mary was stunned. She raised her webbed hands to cover her mouth in surprise, as if she had accidentally let the cat out of the bag.

“Really, you little girl… I don’t even know whether it’s good or bad to tell you this secret.”

Seeing Mary’s innocent face, Lei Yi lost the urge to lecture the mermaid girl. She sighed and said helplessly.

“It just occurred to me because I saw Sister Lei and Mr. Human walking very close to each other.”

Mary stuck out her tongue and spoke, her eyes moving back and forth between the boy and Lei. After thinking for a moment, she waved at Lei.

“Um?”

Seeing Mary acting mysterious, Lei Yi was also confused. She squatted down and put her arm close to the mermaid girl’s mouth, wanting to see what the girl had to say in secret.

“Well, I think Sister Lei’s dream can be realized in a human!”

After glancing at the boy, Mary tried to lower her voice as much as possible to avoid letting Nakano Yuu hear it. After she finished speaking, Lei’s face instantly turned red, but since Nakano Yuu was here, she couldn’t react too much.

Standing up straight, Lei cleared her throat and said:

“Ahem, anyway, we still have some important things to do. We need to take Mary to the upper level first. Everyone is waiting for you there.”

As she spoke, Lei’s eyes kept glancing at Nakano Yuu from time to time, and her mind gradually became active.

Nakano Yuu was the most fair-minded human being she had ever seen towards heretics. Even the adventurers in the Adventurer’s Guild had never been like this.

Lei was born as a heretic in the dungeon a long time ago, and her yearning for her dream has been deeply imprinted in her heart as time goes by. Just as Mary said, if it was Nakano Yu, maybe it would really be possible?

“Hey, Mr. Human, can you pick me up?

When Mary heard what Lei said, she knew that now was not the time for her to continue playing around, so she turned to look at the boy and stretched out her arms.

She still doesn’t know Nakano Yu’s name, so she can only call Nakano Yu “Mr. Human”.

“Just call me Nakano Yuu, no need to be so polite.”

Amused by the mermaid girl’s simple name, Nakano Yu bent down and was about to hug Mari, but suddenly remembered something.

As a mermaid, Marie cannot leave the water for a long time. Once she is away from the water for too long, her body and mind will become extremely weak.

“Mary, didn’t Reed and the others prepare a boat for you so you can go up the dark river?”

Seeing that Mary actually asked to be carried by Nakano Yu, Lei frowned slightly. The mermaids cannot leave the water, and after discussion, the heretics decided to row up through the underground river. Although it would be hard along the way, there would be heretics to pick them up on each floor, so they could divide the work and ensure safety.

“Yes, but the boat is broken down.”

Hearing this, Mary nodded obediently and pointed to a pair of broken wooden boards on the other side of the pond.

It was a ship that the heretics had built with great difficulty using materials they had collected in the dungeon.

It was destroyed just because the workmanship was so crude and the underground river would bring in monsters from time to time.

The boat was bitten to pieces by a LV3 sharp-toothed fish brought from the dark river. If she hadn’t swam fast, she would probably have been injured by now.

“The boat broke down?!”

Mary’s answer surprised Lei. If the boat was broken, she couldn’t take the underground river to send Mary to the upper level. But if she went by land, the distance between the two levels was more than ten. Could Mary hold on?

Thinking of this, Lei’s heart sank. The best way now was to find it back as soon as possible, let Reed and the others build another boat, and take Mary on it.

Seeing Lei’s expression, Nakano Yuya understood what she was worried about. After thinking for a while, he suggested:

“How about this, I’ll help you take Mary upstairs.”

“No, without water, Mary will become very vulnerable. Even a LV1 monster can kill Mary. There are many monsters on the way up. Without a boat to protect Mary… it’s very dangerous!”

As soon as the boy proposed, Lei Yi rejected it directly. It was too dangerous to do so, and it would be irresponsible to Nakano Yuu. What if Nakano Yuu got injured on the way? The medical level of the heretic was almost non-existent. If he was seriously injured, he would not be able to receive treatment in the first time!

“Just bring some water.”

However, facing Lei’s worries, Nakano Yu seemed very relaxed. After he finished speaking, a strong wind blew up, forming a tornado on the calm lake water.

The tornado continued to shrink and solidify, and soon formed a water ball with a diameter of 1.5 meters.

Using [Wind] to control the water ball, Nakano Yu threw the water ball directly at Mari. Before the mermaid girl could react, the water ball covered her.

“Well, this is not good.”

In front of Lei’s shocked gaze, the boy raised his hand, and the water ball wrapped around Mary floated up and hovered in front of Lei.
