Mermaid Raising Guide

Mu Chen, as the last merman baby on Blue Star/Blue Planet, was classified as an SSS-level protected species. The baby looked cute, had a soft and sweet voice, blue eyes, and silver hair. When he smiled, two small and sharp canine teeth were revealed. He resembled a delicate porcelain doll. One look was enough to make people fall for him; the entire empire was crazy for him. In order to continue the reproduction of his kind, the empire arranged a marriage between Mu Chen and the Eldest Prince, who achieved numerous military achievements and had a great reputation at a young age. Thus, he was brought into the palace and groomed as the future imperial consort. In order to let the interstellar people familiarize themselves with the imperial consort in advance, the royal family specially sent someone to broadcast the daily life of raising a baby in the palace— The Minister of Ceremonies taught him to play the piano. Mu Chen sat behind the piano with a serene side face and long hair draping over his shoulders, like a respectable little prince. A sea beast competed with Mu Chen in swimming, but he lost. He sat alone on the edge of the pool, wiping his tears, his little face flushed. The prince came to see him. Mu Chen raised his little face and looked at the prince who always had a stern face, and said with grievance, “I want a hug…” Then, the entire interstellar became impassioned— “Too cute! Tell me, how long is the sentence for stealing a merman!” “Wuwuwu, baby don’t cry, mommy loves you!” “Ahhh, do it! Hug him! Prince, if you can’t do it, I’ll do it!” After Mu Chen reached adulthood, the live broadcast stopped. He only appeared again in the public eye on the eve of the wedding. On that day, they saw the water surging in a beautiful pool in the back garden of the palace, and a silver-tailed merman jumped out of the water. His physique was like a Greek sculpture, with wet silver hair draping over his body. His long and narrow eyes exuded a seductive aura, like a siren from the deep sea that could enchant people. Interstellar citizens: Damn it! I don’t want to be a mommy fan anymore! I want to have his babies! Then, they saw Mu Chen slowly emerging from the water, swimming bit by bit towards the prince standing by the pool. He stretched out his slender arms to embrace the man’s lean waist, the water droplets wetting the man’s shirt. With a flick of his silver tail, he smashed the camera, and the live broadcast turned into a black screen. Audience: Ahhh, why did it black out? Keep broadcasting! At worst, I’ll pay to watch. On the other side, Mu Chen pulled the man into the pool with his long arms, his fish tail curling up. He leaned close to the man’s ear, his voice seductive, “Your Highness, they want us to have babies.” “So…should we?” The prince’s Adam apple bobbled. He put his arms around Mu Chen’s neck, his own nape flushed red. “Let’s do it.” Three months later, people saw the beautiful prince consort again at the prince’s wedding. He smiled with his hand around the prince’s waist, and the prince’s lower abdomen was slightly bulging… Serving Guide: 1. Gong does not fall in love before adulthood 2.

## My Thoughts on Mermaid Raising Guide Alright, let's dive into "Mermaid Raising Guide." This one definitely took me on a bit of a rollercoaster, and I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about it. It's a blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and even a dash of mecha, which is either a recipe for brilliance or a confusing mess. Luckily, it leans more towards the former, in my opinion. ### First Impressions Initially, I was intrigued by the premise. A futuristic setting combined with mermaids? Sign me up! The androgynous protagonist, Mu Chen, and the handsome male lead, Wright, immediately grabbed my attention. The whole livestreaming aspect added a unique flavor to the world-building, making it feel fresh and modern. ### What Works Well What I found most compelling was the relationship between Mu Chen and Wright. It felt genuine and captivating, with a rhythm that kept me hooked. The world development is pretty engaging. The author clearly put thought into the intricacies of this futuristic society, and it shows. I also appreciated that the side characters, while not always perfectly fleshed out, had unique qualities that made them memorable. The plot itself offered some unexpected twists and turns, keeping me guessing and invested in the outcome. ### Areas of Concern I felt that the villains were dealt with a little too hastily toward the end. It felt like the story was rushing to tie up loose ends. The pacing could have been more consistent, allowing for a more gradual resolution to the conflicts. ### Final Verdict Overall, "Mermaid Raising Guide" is a worthwhile read if you're looking for something a little different. It's not without its flaws, but the unique blend of genres, the engaging central relationship, and the intriguing world-building make it a memorable experience. I would recommend this novel.
