Will wasn't the least bit surprised by this answer.
He had noticed there was something off about the Golden Fish Female back in the Vortex Sea Area. Considering her feelings were for the Prince Merfolk of the Undersea Kingdom, it all made perfect sense.
Countless females in the Deep Sea Empire had secretly lost their hearts to him; any who had seen Prince You Sen in person would be haunted by dreams of him.
The black-robed man lit his cigarette and chuckled. "Don't say I didn't warn you. A Merfolk's heart is given only once. They never fall in love with a second person."
"Not necessarily." The old man, for once, seemed inclined to chat. "Where I'm from, we have a profession called Gu Master. The highest level Gu Masters can concoct something called a 'Wind Moon Cicada.' It can slowly devour and rewrite memories of love."
Will took two puffs from his cigarette and didn't reply.
