Blurb:
Qiyin, the ninth prince of the merfolk, fails in his bid for power.
After his supernatural ability is stripped away, he is exiled to the deep sea.
He makes a decision that shocks the entire merfolk race: bargain with a witch for a pair of legs and go ashore.
After coming ashore, he applies and successfully enters the Academy for Ability Users.
All kinds of classmates gather around him.
He doesn't know that two seemingly unremarkable classmates are alts used by powerful big shots.
As it happens, he's using an alt too.
His main account was banned, after all.
Until one day, a big shot's main account takes over their alt and makes him take responsibility.
The leader of the most unruly, terrifying criminal organization in the galaxy
curls up in his arms every night, acting pitiful and sweet. "Brother, you said one fewer thing to me today than yesterday. Do you hate me?"
The strongest ruler, who possesses abilities of every element, pats his head. "You shouldn't be buried in such a tiny place. Go forward without fear. Whenever you look back, I'll always be right behind you."
After enduring countless hardships, he finally becomes a top-tier water-element ability user.
Then he returns to the sea to settle the score.
This time,
his most devoted fan on the surface says to him, looking pitiful, "Brother, welcome home."
His top strategist, who once betrayed him, says, "This time, I won't let you go."
Qiyin: ...Seriously, guys, I'm trying to build a career, and you two are trying to build a romance with me? Are you kidding?
