Hogwarts Lion Girl

Salina propped herself up and realized something was wrong.

What caught my eye was indeed the boy's delicate chin, smooth muscles and fair skin.

But further down, what was visible were not the legs of a human boy, but a beautiful fish tail covered with ice-blue scales.

The huge tail fin stretched out, occasionally sweeping across the ground, bringing up a burst of bubbles.

This young man seemed to be the mermaid she had been expecting.

The mermaid boy gracefully swung his blue tail and took Salina and Cedric through a transparent light curtain.

They left the temple and the view suddenly became clear.

Countless colorful coral reefs sway in the sparkling water. A huge shell-shaped building stands in the center of the coral reef, emitting a soft light.

The mermaid boy led them to swim towards the shell building. Along the way, countless colorful fish swam and played, forming a fantastic and magnificent underwater picture.

Entering the shell building, a white-haired mermaid elder warmly received them.

The elder handed two crystal clear pearls to Salina and Cedric and explained, "These are water-repellent pearls that can help you breathe freely underwater."

Salina took the water-repellent beads and looked around curiously.

The architectural style of the mermaids is completely different from that of humans and is full of the dreamy colors of the ocean.

The walls are inlaid with luminous corals that emit a soft light, and the ground is covered with soft seaweed, which feels like walking on clouds.

The mermaids warmly entertained Salina and Cedric and prepared a delicious seafood feast for them.

During the dinner, the elder introduced them to the history and culture of the mermaid tribe.

It turns out that this is the legendary mermaid sanctuary, where a grand Poseidon Festival is held every year.

In order to avoid humans on land, the mermaids have been secluded from the world for many years. They set up a powerful barrier outside their habitat to hide themselves.

On weekdays, those who are looking for the mermaids can only see the ancient city ruins outside, but cannot find the entrance to the mermaids' territory.

But every year during the Sea God Festival, the gate of the barrier will be opened briefly. Only at this time will it be possible to enter the mermaid's territory through the teleportation array in the temple.

By accident, Salina and Cedric happened to catch up with the annual Poseidon Festival, and were able to enter the holy land of the mermaids.

The mermaid elder said that the Poseidon Festival would last for seven days, during which time they could all leave through the passage of the temple.

So Salina and Cedric calculated the time and decided to stay here for a few days before leaving.

Under the leadership of the mermaid boy, they began this fantastic underwater journey.

The colorful coral reefs are like carefully carved gardens with various shapes, some like deer antlers, some like mushrooms, and some like blooming flowers.

The sunlight shines through the sea water, casting mottled light and shadows on the coral reefs, and countless colorful little fish swim among them, chasing and playing.

A giant sea turtle swam leisurely by, with one or two clownfish lying on its back, seemingly hitching a ride.

The graceful jellyfish are like transparent umbrellas, swaying gently with the ocean current and emitting a dreamy glow.

Huge seaweed forests sway in the water, forming green mazes.

All kinds of strange marine creatures were shuttling around. A giant octopus stretched out its tentacles, rolled up a shell, stuffed it into its mouth, and began to eat it with relish.

The mermaid boy took them to swim freely in the underwater world. Salina felt as if she was in a fairy tale world. She was dazzled and amazed by the sight.

As night falls, the underwater world becomes more mysterious and dreamy.

Countless glittering phosphorescent creatures illuminate the seabed, dyeing the colorful coral reefs with exotic colors.

Mermaids gathered from all directions on the shell-shaped square. They were dressed in gorgeous clothes woven from seaweed and pearls. Their fish tails swayed in the sparkling water, making them look like sea elves from myths and legends.

In the center of the square, a huge statue of Poseidon stands tall. The statue is carved from white coral and has a solemn and kind expression.

In front of the statue, the mermaid elder lit a torch made of rare deep-sea coral. The flame emitted a faint blue light, illuminating the entire square.

Melodious singing came from the mouths of the mermaids. Their singing was like the sound of nature, clear and ethereal, echoing in the sea, as if praising the gift of the sea god.

The young mermaid told Salina that the Poseidon Festival was the most important festival for the mermaids. They would sing and dance during these seven days to thank the Poseidon for his protection and pray for good weather and a good harvest of fish and shrimp in the coming year.

As the singing rises and falls, the mermaids begin to perform an ancient sacrificial dance. Their graceful dance moves rise and fall like waves, full of the rhythm and beauty of the ocean.

Salina and Cedric were deeply attracted by this dreamy scene. They seemed to be integrated into this grand festival, feeling the mermaids' piety to the sea god and their love for the ocean.

After the Poseidon Festival ended, the mermaids dispersed in groups of three or four.

The underwater world is covered with starlight, which makes it more mysterious and romantic than during the day.

Salina and Cedric walked hand in hand in the quiet coral garden.

The moonlight filtered through the sea, casting a dreamy halo around them.

The colorful coral reefs look even more charming under the soft light.

All kinds of strange marine creatures seem to be infected by this romantic atmosphere and become docile and cute.

Cedric picked a glowing sea-moon flower from the underwater garden and solemnly placed it on Salina's ear.

Salina's cheeks flushed and the starlight was reflected in her eyes, which was more moving than the night view under the sea.

"Thank you, Cedric, these are the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen." Salina's voice was soft, like the sound of sea breeze blowing over coral.

"As long as you like it." Cedric stared at Salina, his deep eyes full of tenderness, "Every day with you is as beautiful as a fairy tale."

They continued their stroll and stopped at a trench full of glowing shells.

Salina was deeply shocked by the scenery before her. Countless shells sparkling with strange light decorated the seabed as bright as the Milky Way.

Cedric gently put his arm around Salina's shoulders, pointed to the distance and said to her: "Look, those are the mermaid's tears."

Salina looked in the direction of Cedric's finger, and saw a piece of crystal clear sea crystal not far away. Under the moonlight, it emitted a faint blue light, like crystal tears.

"Legend has it that mermaid's tears can make wishes come true. Do you have any wish, Salina?" Cedric asked gently.

Salina looked into Cedric's eyes and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

She shook her head gently, smiled and said, "My wish is that this moment can last forever."

Cedric's heart was deeply touched by Salina's words. He bent down and kissed Salina's forehead, and whispered, "Me too."

In this beautiful underwater world, on this romantic night, Salina and Cedric's hearts are closely connected.

The relationship between them also quickly heated up during this fantastic adventure.
