Chapter 84-Belle (2)

Dave smirked, realizing that the Turtle King must have placed great confidence in this formation, assuming not many in the beast's world knew of formations.

The water formation around the holy tree, designed to drown or kill intruders, posed no challenge to Dave.

He didn't need to deactivate the formation; loopholes in this shabby defense were apparent to him.

He realized how important to know formations.

"Hehe."

As Dave confidently approached the tree, he heard a cry and noticed a cage nearby containing a woman.

He was taken aback by her beauty, feeling as though his soul was being drawn towards her, only saved by his strong willpower.

Dave checked his status.

Description: The missing princess of the Mermaid Clan.

===================

Dave was shocked to see a beautiful mermaid there.

In his previous life, there were many shows on TV about mermaids.

They said that mermaids were all beautiful and alluring.

Their voices could soothe your feelings and emotions.

Dave looked at her and was curious why she was there. She was beautiful even when she was crying.

She didn't have a foot, but she had her mermaid tail.

She had smooth brown hair and crystal-dark green eyes. Her skin was white, and she emitted an otherworldly charm.

Dave saw that she was 200 years old and guessed that she could still be considered a teenager in the beast world.

.....

Belle was stunned as she never expected that someone would come here other than that old turtle.

She looked at him and was stunned to see how handsome he was. She stopped crying, wiped her tears, and looked at him curiously.

In her clan, there were many handsome men, but none of them could compare to him, and he had the aura that could make any woman fall for him.

Even she was attracted to him at first glance.

Even so, she looked at him warily and asked, "Who are you? Are you that bastard turtle subordinate?"

Dave knew that she was imprisoned here and replied, "I am not his subordinate, and you can see that I am a human."

"I'm just here to steal this tree because that turtle already left."

Belle was stunned and didn't expect that someone had the guts to steal this tree.

She looked at him and saw that he was not lying. The Mermaid clan had the skill to decipher whether anyone was lying or stating the truth.

Dave asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Belle introduced herself.

"I am Belle, the princess of the mermaid clan. When I was a kid, I liked to play outside everywhere in our Mermaid empire. We, mermaids, can be classified as a Royal Sea race as we rule many parts of the sea. One day, an old turtle was recruited by my auntie and said that he would be my bodyguard for now. But when we went outside, he abducted me and brought me to his turtle kingdom. My family didn't know where I was and thought that I died together with the turtle bodyguard."

She paused and continued, "When I woke up, I realized that I was abducted by the turtle and plotted by my aunt for her daughter to be in the next line in the ruling. I didn't have any siblings, so they were sure that I would be the next queen."

"The old turtle abducted me to get a mermaid tear from me to fasten the ripening time of the holy tree. I can only produce one drop of tears every 10 years, and he imprisoned me here for many years."

"The strength of the turtle clan is stronger than the monkey clan now, but the 1st turtle king didn't tell this to anyone as he was secretly accumulating powerful subordinates in the shadows. Now that they are at war, I guess that they are planning to kill the monkey clan for good."

Even though she was locked here, the turtle was telling her some story about what happened here as they were the only ones there.

The turtle bastard didn't dare to take advantage of her because he knew that the mermaid princess would kill herself, as the purity of a mermaid is important to them.

They can only lose it if they get married, and it is a tradition for them. They can't get married until they reach 200 years old.

She didn't know why she told Dave a lot about her because she wanted to talk to someone too. She was lonely here, and she could not escape this place.

"Can you help me escape?"

Dave was amused at how cunning the turtle king was and sighed as the monkey clan would suffer their demise.

Looks like he didn't need to personally avenge Olivia and her clan, as their death was set in stone.

He looked at her and said, "I can take you out of here, but what can I get from it?"

He was not a saint, so he would not do things without benefiting from them.

Belle knew that he couldn't help her without exchanging something.

She didn't have anything right now, as she was imprisoned here for a long.

"I don't have anything in me."

She sighed as she was pitiful, being locked here for so long.

Dave's passion for helping beautiful girls rose again, but he stopped himself and saw if he could get some benefits.

Even if she didn't say it, he would help her because she looked pitiful.

Being imprisoned for many years was torturous for such an innocent lady.

Dave smirked and replied, "I can take you out of here if you become my wife. What do you think?"

Dave's face was thick as he said it directly. Since she was beautiful, it was a pity not to take advantage of the situation.

She was truly beautiful, and her charm was different from other women he had because her eyes could suck souls if you stared at them.

Belle was stunned by his words and looked at him with a wary look.

'I thought that he was a good person.'
