A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 740 You are such a god! ?

However, Leon was still very thick-skinned. He smiled calmly and nodded to the mermaids who greeted him, responding to their greetings. He was quite graceful.

Helena enjoyed this atmosphere very much, so she hugged Leon more tightly, as if to show her sovereignty.

It was not until they reached an independent palace that Leon was surprised to find that the furnishings inside were completely different from the luxurious style of the mermaid he had seen before.

All the furniture in this palace is made of wood and is designed in the style of human beings. The most eye-catching one is a baby bed, which is placed in the center of the hall. There are many fish dolls and some exquisite wooden carvings of small babies on the bed.

"Where is this?" Lyon looked at everything here curiously, feeling inexplicably familiar.

"Mr. Barron used to live here, and this is where I first met you." Helena let go of Leon's hand, walked to the crib, and gestured with her hands.

"You were only this small then, and you looked super cute. My favorite thing to do was to hold you in my arms and watch you smile like a fool."

"Forehead"

Hearing this, Leon was actually quite embarrassed. After all, being able to hug his Helena was at least an adult gesture. It could be said that she was the one who watched him grow up, but now, the two of them had become the closest relationship.

This made Lyon feel like he was being raised, which was quite strange.

"At that time, Mr. Barron told me that you would become my future prince. Do you know how much I wanted you to grow up quickly?"

Helena looked at the crib with a smile in her eyes, and happy memories of that time emerged in her mind.

"I'm curious, why do you listen to grandpa?" Leon couldn't help asking.

"Of course it's because I like you too." Helena explained as a matter of course.

"But I was just a baby then," Leon added speechlessly.

"So what? Humans and mermaids grow up differently, and when we choose a partner, we don't look at appearance, but feelings."

Helena pulled Leon to a floor-length mirror and admired her and Leon's reflections in the mirror.

"From the moment I saw you, I knew that you would eventually become my prince, and now I am even more certain of this."

Hearing this, Leon continued to ask: “So, grandpa brought me here for this?”

"No, you were very small back then, but the condition inside your body was extremely bad. That's why Mr. Barron needed the mermaid's ocean hot springs to provide the best repair effect for your body and ensure that you could grow up."

Helena explained, then looked around the room.

"Mr. Barron lived here with you back then, and during that time, I would come to see you whenever I was free.

It was not until a year later when you had fully recovered that I took you away from the bottom of the sea. Although I was reluctant, I knew that you could not grow up in the palace after all. You still had to come into contact with human society and learn human knowledge.

So I have been waiting, waiting for you to grow up, waiting for you to return to Stardew Valley, planning to wait for you to appear in the winter night market and then meet you again in the most beautiful way. "

"Our reunion wasn't quite as romantic as it could be." Leon thought of his previous encounter in the Elemental City, feeling a bit of a headache. "Who knew I'd find you there by chance? I happened to be there too, so I didn't intend to hold back any longer and just scrapped my previous plans." Helena licked her lips and muttered, "After all, you're an adult now, and the allure and temptation you give me is even stronger than when you were little. I really don't want to wait any longer."

"If you had been a little more restrained at the beginning, perhaps our reunion would have been more peaceful." Lyon complained.

"No, you and that little witch have such a good relationship. I don't think you will be able to accept my sudden appearance. Instead of spending time getting you to accept me, it's better to be straightforward. After all, compared to that little witch, I'm the one who knew you first."

Helena shook her head and retorted, "Besides, I'm not human, so I don't have what you call human moral values. Mermaids don't want to miss out on choosing a partner once they've chosen one. Otherwise, where do you think the stories of sirens using their singing to lure sailors overboard came from?"

"Simple and crude." Lyon gave a thumbs up and exclaimed.

Only then did he realize the difference between the way mermaids think and humans.

After all, differences in civilization lead to different cognition and understanding among humans, not to mention that it is indeed inappropriate to use human values ​​as a benchmark to measure a non-human intelligent race.

The mermaid kingdom, which is composed entirely of women, is like the Kingdom of Women in Journey to the West, where women are respected, and I am like the royal brother who enters this kingdom.

It’s quite exciting to think about it. After all, when I was a child, I only knew how to watch monkeys. When I grew up and watched Journey to the West again, I found that the TM Tang Monk really didn’t know what was good for him.

Seeing Leon's thumbs-up, Helena proudly took Leon's hand and joked, "And I think it's not bad now. At least you're not so resistant to me now, right? The process is not important, as long as the result is good."

Leon did not answer this question. After all, his relationship with Helena was really complicated, but in the final analysis, it was because Leon was a healthy man.

Faced with the passionate and unrequited love of an incredibly beautiful woman, unless you are gay or a eunuch, basically not many people can resist it. In any case, Lyon believes that he can't do it.

"Now that we're done shopping, let's go eat. I didn't treat you well last time, so this time I'll let you experience the cooking skills of the mermaid clan's best chef."

Seeing that Leon didn't say anything, Helena took the initiative to pull Leon out of the room and walked in another direction.

Hearing about eating, Leon became interested and immediately asked, "What do you usually eat?"

"Similar to humans," Helena replied. "After all, mermaids are actually a branch of humans. However, in ancient times, the ancestors of mermaids did not stay on land, but returned to the ocean. Yu Ba gave us different characteristics from humans living on the ground, and also taught us a civilization and lifestyle that is different from humans."

"So, mermaids were once human beings?" After hearing this explanation, Leon felt like he had learned something new.

"Yes, of course. However, ancient humans were very different from humans today. You know, back then, there were no males." Helena nodded. As the queen of the mermaid clan, she knew many secrets of the ancient times, after all, they were recorded in the mermaid library.

"No males? Then how did humans reproduce and pass on?" Lyon asked with his eyes wide open.

"Guess." Helena asked Leon with a smirk on her face.

"Yuba?" Leon tentatively uttered an answer.

"How clever." Helena nodded.

But this definite answer made Lyon stunned. Yuba's lofty image completely collapsed in Lyon's heart.
