When Li Qiang awoke, he was back in his and Wang Wei's room.

[Good job Li Qiang. You have acquired one fragment of master's soul.]

"Do I receive skills from the body I'm transmigrated into?" Li Qiang asked when he saw some unfamiliar skills in on his status screen.

[Yes.]

"I see... that's rather convenient."

[Do you need to rest?]

"Nope. Let's go to the next world~"

[As you wish.]

"Hah hah ha-hah..." Hai Hung ran while breathing heavily.

"There he is! Around the corner, I saw him go into the alley!" His pursuers ran into the alley only to see an empty lane.

"Didn't you say he ran in here?!?"

"Y-Yes! I saw him run in! B-But I don't know where he went..."

"Retard! You should've ran after him!"

"Y-Yes... I apologize..."

Those men searched the alley and the garbage dumps but they still couldn't find Hai Hung.

"Tch. Let's look around for clues."

"Yes!"

"Fuuuu... They left." Li Biming released a breath of relief and looked at the injured man next to him.

Why is my hubby hurt every time I meet him...

Li Qiang, who was now Li Biming, is in a world where merpeople existed.

In this world, the humans ruled the land while the merpeople ruled the seas. Because of their treasured bodies, almost every merperson to be seen were hunted down by humans.

Eating their heart granted immortality, digesting their flesh gave youthfulness and drinking their blood cures any illnesses.

Since the merpeople had tails instead of legs and feet, they couldn't come on land. But that didn't mean humans couldn't go in the water.

However, she had been fished up from the sea. She got caught in a net and was sent to a laboratory to be experimented on. After testing various things about her, they discovered the miraculous effects the mermaid's body had on humans when digested.

At that time, the merpeople who lived in the Kingdom of Atlantis could care less about one messing mermaid. But when the number of merpeople that disappeared started increasing, they knew something was up.

The royal family of Atlantis realized that the humans had discovered them and hunted them down for their bodies. This infuriated the King who then decided to flood many of the humans' lands in return.

The two were at a stalemate with one capturing the other and the other compensating with disastrous actions.

The protagonist of this world is a human girl named Maria Sizer. She had captured the isolated prince's heart when she saved him as a child. The two met again later in the future and strengthen their love, planning to end this war for the sake of their love and world peace.

However, being the protagonist, nothing goes smoothly for her.

Maria's parents were hunters and they wanted to capture the prince she was dating. Using Maria as bait, the prince was captured by her parents without anybody knowing and was tortured with no limit. All the pain and suffering built up in the prince's body caused him to murder Maria's parents with ruthlessness after someone had finally saved him.

As the male lead, the prince, who was Hai Hung, never lost his love for Maria. Although he avoided her for some time, after he found out that she had no clue of her parents' actions, he forgave her. Maria, on the other hand, had no clue that her parents had been murdered by her loving boyfriend.

Together, they decided to 'save the world' by stopping the war between humans and merpeople.

As if stopping a war was that easy.

Hai Hung died while protecting Maria from his own kind and Maria grieved over his death. Maria was determined to fulfill Hai Hung's dying wish but she had failed to convince both the humans and merpeople to stop the war, eventually leading the world to its destruction.

Seems like the female lead in this world is a pitiful person...

"So who am I?"

[You are the person who had saved Hai Hung from Maria's parents in the original plot. You are also her adopted brother, Li Biming.]

Li Biming looked at the man next to him. The hubby detector on his ear was pointing at him. This person is clearly his hubby.

Then he looked at himself.

There was a puddle on the ground and it reflected Li Biming's gentle facial features.

He had glossy round obsidian eyes with fluffy brown hair. His skin was quite pale since this body had a sickly constitution.

Did the parents capture Hai Hung for this child..?

Li Biming wondered if this was the parent's real intentions. But he hasn't met them yet so he couldn't confirm whether or not this speculation was true.

"Argh..."

Hai Hung frowned and opened his eyes. He remembered that those vicious humans were chasing after him but he was suddenly pulled into an alley and hit his head. Hai Hung scanned his surroundings and saw a child next to him. Based on his appearance, he was most likely a human child and definitely not one of his own.

"... Who are you..?"

Li Biming watched his hubby stare at him with a strange look on his face and answered with a bright smile on his face, "Your savior."

Stunned, Hai Hung was speechless at this child who gave him a dazzling smile and a ridiculous answer.

Although he wasn't wrong, Hai Hung didn't know how to respond.

"Thank you for saving me. What are your intentions?" Hai Hung gave the child a sharp look, hoping to show his dominance towards the person in front of him.

"Pfft-- hahahahaha!" Li Biming bursted into laughter until his tears came out.

Ahhhhh~ he looks so cute trying to intimidate me! Hehe!
