Commemoration of Volume 2 Release Original Short Story [from Volume 2, page 13] ---------------------- Lucia: Wa-i! The story of our love and adventures is already up to two volumes! Hanon: That's not true. This is the story of my and Tarou- chan's forbidden love, isn't it? Rina: You're both mistaken. This is the story of the magnificent history of the mermaids. Nikora: Either way, the profits are going directly into the Pearl Waters managers' funds. Eriru: Wa~i wa~i. It's the second volume, I'm so happy. But, what does this "second" mean? Maria: Honestly! Whether it's the mermaids, or Eriru, they're all just idiots. Izuuru: Well, Maria is just a sexy idiot. And Yuuri is a bratty idiot. Yuuri: Izuuru has her own flavor, so there's that to consider, too. Gakuto: I wonder why I chose these four badly-mannered creatures to be my servants. It's a mystery even to me. Hippo: Everyone, from here on things will just become more and more difficult. Please give us your support! Kaito: Well, well. It looks as though Hippo's sufferings will continue, too. Hippo: What are you saying, Kaito-san! If you've got something to say, please say it clearly!! Yokote [Michiko]: And so, there will be more helpings to be served, and please enjoy volume 2. There are plenty of encores to come! [bold text] Yokote before a deadline, meditating so that she becomes like a tin can.
