Chapter 1180: Reunion (4)
The former crown prince was completely surprised by what the Merman King said. But he didn't make any mistakes on why the Merman King did this.
The former crown prince knew exactly what the Merman King was doing with this.
So after a moment of silence, he waved his hand at Zyra and Dicus as well and they came over to his side.
"Brother, this is my wife and my daughter." The former crown prince said with Zyra and Dicus by his side.
It seemed that the ice that had frozen their relationship had finally broken and they were reconciling with each other. They were introducing their families to each other and there was a reunion that was happening between them.
With the way that they talked to each other, it seemed like they were genuinely catching up after many years of separation. Though the relationship between the former crown prince and the Merman King seemed a bit stiff still.
The wives and daughters seemed to slowly open up with each other, but the husbands found it hard to talk to each other.
Still, it was better than nothing.
This at least meant that there was some form of communication between the two sides.
But after a while, they settled down.
It was that they had run out of things to talk about.
There were many things that they wanted to tell each other, but the former crown prince and the Merman King knew that this wasn't the time to talk about this. Rather, they were here for a certain reason which was what should take priority.
It seemed like he found it hard to believe because of the things that had happened in the past, but eventually his brows relaxed as if he was willing to listen. It wasn't that he was willing to accept everything just yet, but at the very least, it seemed like he was willing to listen to what the former crown prince was about to say.
That was at least a step forward.
The former crown prince went into different examples that he had prepared over the years. These were examples that he had been preparing just in case there was ever a chance since there was a part of him that didn't want to give up.
Though that part of him wanted to do this for his daughter rather than anything else.
The examples that he gave included things like kidnappings and pollution.
The truth of the matter was that they weren't kidnapped, but rather they had eloped because they were in love. Or the pollution was because of accidents that happened during the experiments that the sea witches did.
It was all because the Merman Empire was never willing to listen to them that these matters escalated out of hand.
The Merman Empire persecuted the sea witches without actually investigating the matters and then escalated it all before there were any explanations given. Though even if there were explanations, it wasn't as if the Merman Empire was willing to listen because of their prejudices.
When he was done, the former crown prince waited for the Merman King's response.
The Merman King didn't say anything at first, but he eventually said, "I can't say that I'll drop this matter, but at least I can say that I'll let my people investigate it. If it's true, then we can slowly move on rebuilding our relationship."
The former crown prince gave a simple nod in response.
He knew that this matter couldn't be rushed, it was a wound that had to be healed over time.
At least they had taken the first step.
All of a sudden, the Merman King asked, "What can you tell me about the experiments of the sea witches?"
