Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead's Counterattack Chapter 252

The chaos at the scene benefitted some . August led XunMi towards the cage at the center of the stage . With a flick of his hand, his mental strength cut off the chains . The door of the cage swayed open . Betti immediately transformed her tail into legs and ran out .

“Your highness . ” Before Betti could through herself at XunMi, she was held back . It was the man that had just saved her . So handsome!

August frowned . This deep sea mermaid's love struck expression was really ugly, it was an eyesore .

“Mi'er . Let's go . We've already found her . ” August led her through the chaotic crowd . As for that other mermaid…She has feet too, she can find her own way out .

Betti pouted . What was up with that man and her highness?

Anson stood to the side deep in thought . Although all natural mermaids were treated with respect in the empire, but there was never a tradition of a mermaid calling another mermaid 'your highness' . Especially since Thetis had said she came out to find her friend . Then, this mermaid shouldn't be referring to Thetis as her highness then .

Unless Thetis' identity was so honorable that even pure mermaids had to show respect . But how likely was that? Perhaps he really did need to go back and investigate the royal family annals .

“I heard Thetis calling you Betti . Then Betti, you can leave with me first . It's messy here . ” Anson Eyre warmly smiled . He protected her behind him and followed in XunMi and August's direction .

XunMi and August hadn't gone far from the auction house . They had both felt the slight vibrations from the ground . XunMi guessed that it had something to do with that large bug .

The reality was, because of the battle between auction goers and military men, the smell of blood had splattered . With only one floor separating them, the bug had probably smelled it too .

When Betti saw XunMi waiting for her outside, her good mood returned . She stepped forward and lightly called, “Your Highness . ” She had complicated feelings about this queen of the sea . As a twenty-first century person believing in equality, she was shocked to wake up in this world with social hierarchies and where power defined social class . In the beginning she was panicked . After she realized her new identity, she was then thankful . At least her identity as a deep sea mermaid was noble and received everyone's love .

As a normal person, Betti definitely felt a bit of vanity after going from ugly duckling to white swan . But reality was also cruel . When this sea queen told her of the history between deep water mermaids and humans, she didn't know what to think . She obediently learned how to control her powers from the sea queen . She also understood that this was no longer the world she was familiar with .

Here, you could lose your life at any moment if not alert, even if you were a deep sea mermaid . But the extended time living the underwater life bored her . She wanted to walk on land again . So, she ran away .

But as soon as she got to land, she was taken here . At first she panicked . When she discovered that her powers hadn't been obstructed and that those people only thought of her as a natural mermaid, and not a deep sea mermaid, she relaxed .

She thought that she could just use this as an opportunity to get familiar with life on land . After whoever buys her, she'll just run away . And then she'll find someone to back her up .

Isn't that what happens in the movies? As long as she had a backer, there was nothing to be afraid of . But before she could find a backer, the queen of the sea found her .

Betti didn't want to go back into the sea . Not only was it lonely there, but she was always envious there .

She had thought that she was definitely the most beautiful . Yet she saw a female that even shocked her with her beauty .

XunMi Thetis was the noble queen of the sea . She controlled all of the sea . Even though Betti was a precious and rare deep sea mermaid, she wasn't the only . She was just the number two . Betti really couldn't stand it there in the sea .

“Are you done playing around?” XunMi lightly smiled . Her expression was soft . She patted Betti's head . “It's time to decide whether to stay or to leave . Betti, you must know that this isn't a place we should be living . At least, not now . Do you understand what I'm saying?” XunMi still hoped that Betti could live well . After all, she had known her for over a hundred years . That's why she had never restricted her .

In the sea, besides XunMi, Betti was the one that was always treated with immense respect . But Betti still seemed restless, always looking for adventures . XunMi knew this but couldn't help her .

Betti raised her head immediately, excitedly she asked . “Can I not go back? Can I stay here?” She wanted to stay, so that she can finally be in the spotlight .

XunMi sighed . Of course . There was no way around this . “You can . But during this time, you can stay by my side . When you are done with Norma Empire, then you will leave . ” This will be her last time helping her . She'll have to decide for herself what future roads she wants to travel on .

Betti wasn't completely happy with this . But she still agreed .

August was even less happy about this . He immediately rejected . “She can stay with Anson . There's no empty rooms at home for her to stay in . ” His meaning was obvious . He won't allow anything that would take up his mermaid's time and attention to appear .

As a background character that was suddenly called on, Anson instinctively nodded his head in agreement . Only after nodding did he think something was wrong .

“August, what kind of joke! Your house has no more rooms?!” Who would believe it . Even if he didn't want to, he could just send her to the Mermaid Protection Bureau or find a better excuse .

“The rooms are going to be used to construct pools and resting areas for Mi'er . Also to store the things she likes . There's no more rooms . ” August very seriously . He had already planned everything out . The backyard had already been dugged up to start constructing the pool . He was going to bring in sea water for her . Besides the master bedroom, he planned on remodelling all the rooms in the home .

Anson, once again being fed dog food, now refused to speak with August anymore . Today was really his unlucky day . Anson kept reminding himself to stay calm, stay calm . If media agents were here today, the headlines for tomorrow would be:

#What has caused the warm and elegant big prince to break?#

#The Big Prince and Major General Ludovic have broken their friendship because of a mysterious mermaid!#

The other witness, Betti, tightly tightened her hands into fists by her side . It was always like this . As long as XunMi was there, no would notice her . She could understand it . After all, XunMi was beautiful, noble, graceful, and powerful .

But Betti still couldn't resist . Her eyes flashed with pain and unease .
