What is it? Kaiden asked, eyeing the weird creature in renewed distrust. How could it be good for the reef when it was so damn annoying? Though maybe it was the reason that the spot had been flourishing with underwater flora in the past few weeks. The change had been gradual yet still noticeable. If the Aqueix was the cause, then the mershark might be able to forgive it. The extra barrier of kelp made the spot more secluded and cozier.
Hadama's comment made the mershark snort, If I'm not hunting it, why would I hurt it? Kaiden wasn't stupid enough to waste energy on such a thing. Nor was he petty enough to lash out at a sea creature for simply annoying him.
The offer for help, though unexpected, is taken warily. Yes. But I'm not paying you back for it. If the King tried to call Kaiden later to call upon a 'favor' from them, the mershark would turn tail and head to the ocean's depths. They didn't do debts.
