Chapter 242 His Differences

• Celine’s POV
• I sense them before I see them, the familiar presence of Jonathan and Dolton making their way back. But something feels… different.
• When they finally step into view, my eyes widen. Jonathan looks completely like a merfolk, his skin iridescent, shimmering with the faint glow of his magic. But unlike every merfolk I’ve ever seen, he still has legs instead of a tail. The webbing along his arms is more pronounced, his entire form radiating with something new, something that wasn’t there before.
