Chapter 132

The moment I dived into the sea.

Thin, round air bubbles enveloped my body.

Thanks to them, I wasn’t affected by the water pressure, and with the oxygen supply, I had no trouble breathing.

This was probably the effect of the amulet Maehwa had given me.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Now we’re diving into the sea and heading to the underwater palace. Lol.

**[Handsome Licker]**—The broadcast keeps getting more bizarre. *Lick lick.*

**[Yoho]**—This is the kind of broadcast you can’t even pay to see.

—

**[Jujijoa]**—Since we keep going to strange places, I’m curious where we’ll end up next.

**[Meng Yao]**—At this rate, we might even go to another planet. Lol.

**[Balloon Gum Collector]**—Wakya! I hope we get to go to another world too!

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Balloon Gum, why isn’t the maid chatting? Aren’t you together?

**[Balloon Gum Collector]**—Warkya! The maid is busy preparing to sort out the hierarchy when Min Neong arrives!

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Lol. A mere teddy bear doll kid is daring to challenge a dragon.

—

**[Cheerful Hyeon Ji]**—Wow… I always wondered why the fixed viewers were so obsessed with Gye Se-hoon’s broadcasts, but it’s because of these absurd contents.

**[Min Ji]**—No? Isn’t it just because he’s handsome?

—

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—I want the amulet Gye Se-hoon got too.

**[Qkrnfl892]**—For real, shamanism seems better than magic.

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—Stop talking nonsense. That kind of thing can be done with magic too. You’ve been disrespecting magic since last time.

**[Big Girl]**—Why are you so angry, Defense Team?

—

After about 20 minutes of diving on Min Neong.

—

**[Oh King. There’s light!]**

A dazzling light illuminated the dark depths of the sea, coming into view.

We had finally arrived at the underwater palace.

—

**[Handsome Licker]**—Wow. Is that the underwater palace? *Lick lick.*

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—But what’s an underwater palace? A super uterus?

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Yeah, you’re sharp.

**[Big Girl]**—It’s an underwater palace…

—

After parking Min Neong at the entrance of the palace.

The moment I jumped off and landed, the air bubble surrounding me popped!

It seemed the duration had run out.

But it wasn’t a problem.

The water pressure didn’t crush me, and there was plenty of oxygen near the palace, probably due to some shamanistic spell.

Of course, we were still underwater.

—

“I can breathe here.”

—

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—This is seriously amazing.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Since there’s oxygen, we could even have sex here. Lol.

**[Yoho]**—Why are you looking for sex in the deep sea when you can’t even do it on land?

**[Handsome Licker]**—Lol. You’re obsessed with sex, you freak. Guburi, want me to eat you out? *Lick lick.*

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Get lost, you disgusting lesbian. I’m gonna puke.

—

**[Qkrnfl892]**—Handsome John is really showing his true colors. What a lesbian freak.

**[Balloon Gum Collector]**—Wakya!? Handsome John is a lesbian?!

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—Probably. I’ve noticed signs before.

**[Jujijoa]**—Since she likes Gye Se-hoon too, she might be bisexual.

—

**[Handsome Licker]**—?? I was just joking, why are you all being so serious? *Pfft.*

—

**[Welcome.]**

“Welcome.”

—

At the entrance of the underwater palace.

A mermaid and a human woman guarding the entrance bowed their heads to welcome us.

One was a yokai, the other an exorcist.

The reason these two, who were supposed to be enemies, were standing together was simple.

According to Maehwa, after the recent change in the elder generation, yokai with human-friendly tendencies were being recruited to form cooperative relationships.

The new exorcist elders seemed less rigid than the previous ones.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Are those two a couple?

**[Yoho]**—Who?

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—That mermaid and the woman. They’re rubbing their butts together.

**[Yoho]**—Oh, they must be a couple.

**[Min Ji]**—Ew… Disgusting.

—

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—What’s disgusting about a couple, you b*tch?

**[Qkrnfl892]**—Don’t mind her. She’s probably just jealous because she’s single.

**[Min Ji]**—I’m not jealous. It’s just gross to see public displays of affection. -_-

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Couples should all die.

—

**[Balloon Gum Collector]**—Wakya! Isn’t that underwater, not outside?

**[Cheerful Hyeon Ji]**—Cut her some slack. Min Ji unnie gets uncomfortable whenever she sees couples.

**[Min Ji]**—Hyeon Ji, don’t make things up.

**[Cheerful Hyeon Ji]**—Hehe, just kidding~

**[Min Ji]**—Don’t cross the line with your jokes.

**[Cheerful Hyeon Ji]**—Yes…

—

**[Jujijoa]**—Min Ji is only strict with Hyeon Ji.

**[Meng Yao]**—Only online. In real life, she’s nice.

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—How do you know that?

**[Meng Yao]**—I hacked her webcam once.

—

**[Drifting AI]**—I must say, hacking webcams is a crime.

**[Meng Yao]**—?? Drifting, stop talking nonsense and go back to sleep.

—

**[Handsome Licker]**—So, were you really jealous because they’re a couple? How pathetic, Min Ji. *Lick lick.*

**[Min Ji]**—Lesbians, stop chatting. You stink.

**[Handsome Licker]**—You b*tch.

—

Anyway.

We were guided by the palace staff and moved to the banquet hall.

—

Min Neong had shrunk in size.

Its original size was too big to fit inside the palace.

Now it was only as big as my forearm.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Oh. It can shrink its body too.

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—Can it polymorph too?

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—What’s polymorph?

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—A magic that lets you transform into other creatures. Dragons can polymorph into humans, but I’m not sure about this one.

—

While following the staff to the banquet hall.

After reading the Defense Team’s chat, I asked Min Neong if it could transform into a human.

—

**[I don’t know!]**

—

The same answer came back.

It seemed it hadn’t fully grasped its abilities yet, having only recently evolved into a dragon.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—This kid knows nothing. What’s the difference between it and Maehwa?

**[Maehwa Tree]**—Guburi, I’m reading the chat.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—What are you gonna do, b*tch? Lol.

—

**[Qkrnfl892]**—Guburi, you’re so bold online, but you wouldn’t say a word to Maehwa in real life. Lol.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Nah, I could take Maehwa down with one fireball.

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—Lol.

—

“Oh, and Min Neong. Do you like your current name?”

**[Yes! I like it! Min Neong Min Neong!]**

“Really? I was thinking of changing it if you didn’t like it…”

—

I had been thinking about it for a while.

The name Min Neong didn’t suit its current form at all.

It wasn’t even a snake to begin with, so the name was a mistake.

Min Neong was a combination of Min Ji and snake.

So, at first, I thought of renaming it Min Mugi.

After it evolved into a dragon, I considered Min Yong.

Finally, I came up with the name “Minyong,” which sounded more masculine, and tweaked it to “Minyong.”

Sadly, since it liked its current name, the chance to give it a new one was gone.

But I decided to ask again, just in case it might prefer Minyong.

—

“Min Neong.”

**[Yes?]**

“What do you think of the name Minyong?”

**[I like Min Neong! I don’t like Minyong!]**

—

Min Neong flatly rejected the new name.

It seemed to like the name I gave it more than I thought.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—Yeah, Min Neong is better than Minyong.

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—Minyong sounds cooler.

**[Handsome Licker]**—Minyong is better, but it’s too good for that perverted dragon. *Lick lick.*

**[Min Ji]**—Yes, next perverted lesbian~

—

**[Handsome Licker]**—Lol. I really want to tie Min Ji up and lick her all over.

**[Min Ji]**—Ew!

—

**[Yoho]**—Room Master, I think Min Neong is more endearing and better.

**[Qkrnfl892]**—I like Min Neong too. Lol.

—

Most of the viewers seemed to support the name Min Neong.

—

“Min Neong sounds a bit old-fashioned, what a shame…”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—You’re calling the name you gave it old-fashioned? Lol.

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—Lol. You probably just gave it a random name since you didn’t plan to raise it.

**[Jujijoa]**—Honestly, Minyong isn’t great either.

**[Meng Yao]**—True. Minyong sounds like a rip-off. Lol.

—

In the end, the final name was confirmed as Min Neong.

—

While I was swallowing my slight disappointment at not being able to name it Minyong, we arrived at the banquet hall in the center of the palace.

The banquet hall was filled with luxurious tables adorned with all kinds of jewels.

—

**[Please sit here.]**

“We’ll bring the food right away.”

—

My seat was next to Maehwa.

The couple staff guided us to our seats and then quickly left the banquet hall.

After that, while chatting with Maehwa, about 10 minutes passed.

—

**[The food is here!]**

**[Hello!]**

**[Welcome to the underwater palace!]**

—

Numerous mermaids, each holding a tray, began swimming into the banquet hall one by one.

Unlike the grotesque mermaid prince I saw last time, these were beautiful mermaids straight out of a fairy tale.

Oh, and by the way, they were all female mermaids.

Perhaps because the mermaids were female, my broadcast chat was in complete chaos.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—What the f*ck!!! Why are the mermaids female!!!

**[Reverse Rape Mania]**—What is this! What is this!!! What is this!!! Get lost, you disgusting mermaids! My mom is crying in shock right now!!!

**[Handsome Licker]**—*Lick lick.*

—

**[Qkrnfl892]**—Ugh, so gross. Look at the shells on their chests. WTF.

**[Big Girl]**—Ew. That’s a bit disgusting.

**[Min Ji]**—Very disgusting. -_- I might actually throw up.

—

**[Cheerful Hyeon Ji]**—Se-hoon, run! That’s hell!

**[Balloon Gum Collector]**—Wakya! It’s not an underwater palace, it’s hell!!!

**[Maid]**—Wakpakya!!!

—

**[Yoho]**—I want to say something bad, but I’ll hold back.

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]**—Why did Maehwa bring us to such a disgusting place?

**[Maehwa Tree]**—I’m just as shocked. The elders probably sent only female mermaids to entertain Se-hoon.

—

**[Meng Yao]**—What? Is that a lesbian bar?

**[Jujijoa]**—I want to shoot them all.

**[Drifting AI]**—I am angry. I got up in a rage while resting.

**[Handsome Licker]**—Sit back down. *Lick lick.*

—

**[Min Ji]**—Huh? Do digital lifeforms have legs?

**[Drifting AI]**—Lol.

**[Min Ji]**—??

—

When most of the mermaids had entered.

From the back, a mermaid with a slightly unique appearance slowly entered the banquet hall, swishing her tail.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**—What the f*ck is that fish? I’ll roast it with a fireball. WTF.

—

**[The princess is entering!]**

—

It seemed to be the mermaid princess.
