She reached out to catch the diamond, held it in her hands and handed it to the person in front of her. There were scratch marks on the girl's palms, as small and dense as the scratches on the wooden floor.

Jason's attention was all on the diamond, and he swallowed subconsciously, with a flash of greed and heartbeat in his eyes.

If it weren't for Alice being here, he would definitely take over this task first.

Even if he only gets one tear diamond a week, sooner or later he will become a young rich man that everyone in the magic world envies!

You can eat when you want, buy when you want, play when you want... Who doesn't like this kind of life?

"Only the tears of mermaids can turn into diamonds." Alice said seriously, "But you look like a human now."

Her eyes are clear and bright, unstained by dust.

The girl was slightly startled, as if she didn't expect Alice's reaction to be so calm. Human beings in her eyes were not like this.

She hesitated for a moment, then held up the skirt with her injured fingers, revealing her white feet.

The feet are like white jade, smooth and delicate. The toes are like sheep, with only two.

Reluctantly pulling away from the attraction of the diamond, Jason lowered his head and looked at the deformed feet.

"oh!"

He subconsciously wanted to retreat, but as soon as he lifted his heels, he forced himself to hold back. The hands hanging by his sides clenched tightly, and he let out a low cry of surprise.

Alice said nothing, her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her eyes became complicated as she looked at the girl. It was like a palette of multiple colors.

"Is it ugly?" The girl laughed at herself. She looked at Alice bravely with a calm look, "This is the price of becoming a human being."

"Every step I take is like dancing on the tip of a knife...the pain is unbearable." Her smile was bitter, but her expression was calm and firm.

"In the eyes of humans, I am a monster."

She took a step forward, her toes trembling uncontrollably when she landed on the ground. Jason subconsciously stepped away to avoid getting too close to her.

"In the eyes of the same kind, I am an alien." The girl continued to whisper, not caring about the boy's reaction.

"But none of these things were enough to make me give up."

She stated in a low voice, came to Alice, holding the diamond in both hands, as if she was holding the last bit of stubbornness and persisted, "If you are willing to help me, I will make you the richest person in the world."

A long time passed, but it seemed like only a moment.

The corner of the blonde girl's mouth moved slightly, she picked up the diamond in the girl's palm with one hand, looked at it from side to side, and then showed a smile:

"I won't do such things as murder. Even if I sell my tears, it won't help."

"I'm just a nine-year-old girl, how could I let you do such a terrible thing?"

Seeing Alice shed tears, her hanging heart finally let go, and the girl smiled again.

Like an encouraged child, simply happy.

"You are only a nine-year-old girl, but you gave up your noble status among your own kind for the sake of mankind."

Alice put the diamond in the palm of her hand, gave her a thumbs up, and praised: "You are so brave!"

Jason looked confused, frowning and thinking hard, not knowing what they were talking about.

She seemed to be biting her lower lip in distress, and the girl's voice seemed to be sighing: "It seems that you have figured out my identity."

"I didn't mean it." Alice waved her hands quickly, "I just made a little guess. I didn't expect you to admit it."

The girl stared at her, her expression seemed a little angry: "You really don't know how to comfort people?"

Alice tilted her head and thought for a moment, then blinked and said with a hint of playfulness, "Maybe so."

"Then I'll tell you straight to the point," the girl picked up her skirt, tapped her toes, and bowed gracefully, "I am His Majesty the Seventh Prince of the Merman Monarch."

Despite enduring the sharp pain, her smile was still as bright as a gem, and she stretched out her right hand to the person in front of her:

"I want you to take me to the general's daughter. She is my only friend."

Holding the hand that was trembling slightly due to pain, Alice smiled seriously and said, "I'll take over this task!"

Jason's eyes were full of envy, his eyes widened, he grabbed Alice's arm and asked repeatedly: "No way? Alice, do you really want to become the richest person in the world?"

"No...it's not true, is it?!"

He felt aggrieved and angry, and stomped the floor loudly. Like a stock investor who had lost all his money due to stock trading, he complained tearfully:

"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!"
