"If my father knew about this, he definitely would not tell anyone," Veyra said confidently. "As for the Mermaid King, he has lived for hundreds of years and knows better what to say and what not to say, so he won't say anything either."
"Celeste, go get some rest, do not worry so much. As long as no one knows, everything will be fine," Lucien suddenly said.

As always, the system remained silent.
