Chapter 969: This is…!
This wasn't a big warehouse which made the Merman Queen seem a bit disappointed, so I had to say, "There wasn't much material that could be brought back in the first place, so there was only so much that could be made."
The Merman Queen looked at me for a bit before slowly nodding in agreement.
However, the way that she looked at me made it clear that there was something else that she was waiting for me to say.
With a bitter smile, I shook my head to say, "The batch that you've brought should have much more ingredients, so we should be able to make much more for you to take back next time you come to deliver ingredients."
The Merman Queen gave a satisfied nod upon hearing this before pushing the door of the warehouse open.
It seemed like she really was impatient to see the lube.
Though there was a trace of doubt that was on her face as well.
She wanted to see if the lube really had the same moisturizing effect as the one that I had given her before.
I knew that if it didn't, then there would be hell to pay, but I was confident in the system's reports. It had given me very detailed reports on this matter, so I believed that the system's reports were correct.
After the warehouse door was pushed open, the shelves filled with lube inside of the warehouse were revealed.
There weren't that many shelves since with the amount of Glowing Seaweed that I brought back, it was only enough to make around a few hundred bottles of this.
It actually took quite a surprising amount of Glowing Seaweed to make this lube, it didn't even take that much of the other materials to make a bottle. It seemed that most of the lube was made up of the Glowing Seaweed.
That was most likely why the system had only triggered when I obtained the Glowing Seaweed.
The Merman Queen slightly knitted her brows when she saw this, as if she was dissatisfied with what she was seeing. It was clear that she wasn't happy about the amount, but she still accepted it and went forward to take a look at the lube.
She picked one of the bottles up and then turned around as if she wanted to use it.
But when the Merman Queen turned around, she realized that there was something wrong. It was that she couldn't actually use it since she didn't have a tail anymore.
She was on land and had taken the humanizing position, so there were only a pair of human legs under her right now.
Narrowing her eyes, she turned to me and said, "Let's go back to the river on the wyverns. I want to test this out right now."
There was a bitter smile that appeared on my face when I heard this, but I said, "There's no need to do that, we have prepared a place for you to test the product already."
The Merman Queen was surprised to hear this, but then she found that it was quite reasonable. After all, they knew that she was here to test the product in the first place, so of course they would have prepared a place.
So with a nod, the Merman Queen said, "Alright, lead the way."
As if they had received a cue, the other merman also came forward and picked up a few bottles of lube as well.
It seemed that they were also planning on running their own tests.
From the way that the Merman King looked away slightly, I could guess that he was the one that had given the signal to the others to come forward to take the lube.
It seemed that he also wanted to test the lube, but he didn't dare say it out loud in front of his wife.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
In that case, I would just turn a blind eye.
With a smile and a nod, I said, "Alright, please follow me."
The Merman Queen took one look at the others who were gathering up the lube. When she did, they suddenly froze as if they thought that being still meant that she wouldn't see them.
But the Merman Queen didn't care about them as she turned back and started following me. The rest of the mermen let out a sigh of relief before bringing the bottles of lube along. After walking for a while, they heard the sound of water splashing, which made them realize that they were close.
Only when they saw what was waiting for them, they immediately knitted their brows.
"This is a bit too small, isn't it?" The Merman Queen said right after seeing the pool that we had prepared.
There was an awkward look on my face when I heard this since this was the biggest pool that we could prepare and it was called small by the Merman Queen.
Though if one compared the pool to the ocean that they normally swam in, then it would be considered small.
No, even without comparing the pool to the ocean, they would have something to compare the pool to. They most likely had encountered some kind of pool that the Tide Empire had built for them before.
The Tide Empire was one of the four empires of human society for a reason.
The resources that they had at their disposal far surpassed the resources that would be available to a small kingdom like ours.
So I'm sure that they would be able to build pools that were much bigger than this.
We just couldn't compare.
After making this comment, the Merman Queen still pulled out the humanizing potion and went into the pool to test the lube.
Once she did this, the Merman King and the other mermaid royal guards did the same thing.
After entering the pool, they used the same water magic to pull out a bubble of lube that they used to surround their tail.
When they put their tails covered in lube into the pool...
"This effect, this is...!"
