A thin crack appeared on the shell and quickly spread throughout the entire egg.
Before Mag and Gina could even react to it, pieces of shell started falling off the egg, leaving only a layer of translucent lining.
One could roughly make out a figure of a half human, half fish under the thin lining.
There was a sudden strong breath of life, as though it was going to break out from its shell.
Several spatial interstices appeared around the egg but none could go near the egg that was left with only the thin lining.
Mag held his sword and hesitated, not sure if he wanted to make the first move.
“I can feel kindness and kinship from it. Even if it isn’t the God of the Sea, it should be something related to Lantisde. Please don’t harm it,” Gina told Mag sincerely as she took a step forward to stand between Mag and the egg.
Mag thought for a while before putting his sword down. He nodded and said, “If anything happens, I will bring you out of this place first.”
“Sure.” Gina nodded.
Just then, the crystal ball in Gina’s hands emitted a bright glow and flew without stopping towards the egg.
Gina watched nervously. The Magical Pearl of the Sea had never behaved so strangely before. At least in Lantisde’s recorded history, such a mysterious egg had not appeared before either.
What exactly was this mysterious giant egg that appeared at the traces of the God of the Sea? What relationship did it have with the God of the Sea and Lantisde? Why did it cause such a strange reaction in the Magical Pearl of the Sea?
The answer was in the thing that was about to break out from the shell.
Knock knock.
The Magical Pearl of the Sea stopped in front of the egg and knocked gently on the shell, making two knocking sounds.
The area of impact was suddenly broken by a little finger poking through.
It was a fair, tender, and plump finger. It poked around in the air and rotated once before slicing down.
Rip!
The thin shell was easily sliced open like a piece of paper. The shell split into two and fell down on both sides. A little mermaid dropped and rolled out from the shell.
Yes. It was a very mini mermaid.
She looked about two years old and had a beautiful blue tail. Her hair was blue and wavy and her features were exquisite and adorable. Her eyes were half closed and she staggered around, trying to use her fins to help her stay upright but she could not prevent her body from rolling over, just like a chick that just came out from its shell.
“Oh my, she is so cute!” Gina looked at that little mermaid in surprise. Why did it not cross her mind that a little mermaid would emerge from the shell and that she would be so cute?
Upon hearing the sound, the little mermaid opened her eyes and her gaze landed on Gina.
She had a big pair of clear blue eyes. It was like a beam of light shining through the deep blue ocean.
“Mother…”
The little mermaid made an incomprehensible sound as it stumbled toward Gina quickly.
Gina opened her arms wide subconsciously and went up to pick her up.
The little one raised her fair and tender little hands. She cupped her hands around Gina’s face and pouted her lips to give Gina a kiss on her cheek. After that, she let out a chuckle.
“System, what species is this? Do mermaids lay eggs?” Mag put away his Tian Du sword. He did not feel any evil aura or ill intentions from this little mermaid.
The System remained silent.
Bam!

Just then, the Magical Pearl of the Sea exploded and a blue beam shot towards Gina.
Mag frowned but still took a step back. He did not pull his sword out.
The blue beam enveloped Gina and materialized into a power that disappeared into her body.
Gina carried the little mermaid, her face full of question marks. She could feel the power within her increasing at a rapid speed and her understanding of water was also improving at an incredible rate.
Three minutes later, the blue beam disappeared.
A blue trident mark appeared on her glabella but faded away very quickly.
As the mark faded away, Gina’s aura shot up to the peak of a 10th-tier.
“Huh?!” Gina was in disbelief. She broke through the 9th-tier only less than a year ago. How could she suddenly become a 10th-tier powerhouse?
Besides, there were even powerful spells surfacing in her mind. They weren’t spells passed down in Lantisde. They were even more powerful spells.
“Is this a gift from the God of the Sea?” Mag looked at the little mermaid in Gina’s arms thoughtfully. This was his conjecture.
“Mother! Mother! Mother!” the little mermaid called out joyfully and seemed to have become closer and fonder of Gina.
Gina looked at the child in her arms, feeling conflicted and explained, “I… I’m not your…”
Mag went up and patted her shoulder gently. He shook her head and said, “Let’s bring this child with us.”
Gina thought about what Mag said. Although this little one looked rather intelligent, it was still a newborn child. Leaving her here amidst the dangerous debris was definitely a bad idea.
If she were to bring her away and back to Chaos City, she would have to continue raising her. Without a legitimate identity, there would be trouble.
As she looked at the cute little one and how she tried to get closer to her, Gina could not help but waver.
There were only two mermaids now, the both of them, left on the Norland Continent.
“Mm. Good girl.” Gina smiled and kissed the little one on her cheek. She thought for a while and said, “Shall I give you a name then? Should I call you… Kiddo?”
“Kiddo! Kiddo! Kiddo!” the little one chanted as she smiled happily.
“Kiddo? What a random name.” Mag raised his brow. However, that little one seemed to like the name a lot.
Kiddo turned and looked at Mag. She raised her arms and said, “Father! Huggies!”
“No… No, I’m not your father…” It was Mag’s turn to be stunned.
It was alright if he was a single youth. He could just take on the role of her father. However, he was a man with a family, and two daughters. He could not go around being someone else’s father.
Kiddo pressed her lips together and said, upset, “No huggies, Kiddo is going to cry…”
Tears were starting to well up in the little one’s large eyes. She looked like she was about to burst into tears as she waved her fair and plump arms in the air, asking for a hug. That made Mag give in.
He… really could not resist it.
“Alright, huggies, huggies.” Mag took the little one from Gina’s arms and helped her put on the custom-made skirt he ordered from the System just now.
Mag was not too surprised that the little one could speak after just hatching from the egg.
In comparison, it was more miraculous that a 9th-tier magic caster could suddenly become a 10th-tier great magic caster.
If this little one was the reincarnation of the God of the Sea, this would all make sense.
