Merfolk Lord

Luo Yi transmigrates into a mermaid. Unable to stomach raw food from the water, he disguises himself as a human and goes ashore in search of a decent meal.

But the place where he lands is a barren region where the entire continent exiles its criminals. Here, people can't even eat their fill, let alone enjoy a good meal.

No, no. He came ashore to eat well. How can he do that with nothing to eat?

Luo Yi touches his throat, opens wide, and uses his mermaid powers to summon a school of fish. Pointing at the vicious criminals, he declares, "Whoever cooks me something delicious gets to eat fish."

And so these convicts, usually busy competing, fighting, and brawling, are forced to take up farming just to get fish to eat.

Luo Yi wants egg fried rice.

Raise chickens! Grow rice!

Luo Yi wants beef noodles.

Raise cattle! Grow wheat!

Luo Yi wants hot pot.

Raise all kinds of livestock! Grow every kind of vegetable!

What if there aren't any animals? Trade fish for them!

What if there aren't any vegetables? Trade fish for them!

Someone comes to steal the fish? Take them down!

Someone comes to steal Luo Yi? Beat them so badly their own mother won't recognize them!

And so, as Luo Yi indulges his appetite, he ends up becoming the ruler of the continent.
