The merfolk who witnessed this scene were left dumbfounded, especially the guards in Lily's team who had their eyes set on the ship. "Why… why would the cursed clan attack them? Aren't they on the same side?!" The head guard demanded in consternation.
Too shocked by this sudden development of event, he did not even realize that the few people who fell from the ship was none other than the honored guests he had received earlier this morning.
He had wanted to leave as soon as the alarm was issued, but Lily stopped him, reminding him that he should focus on the task to save Princess Ariel. Bound by the King's order to obey the human's words, he had no choice but to stay put no matter how much he yearned to join the battle in the sea.
He had thought that they were doomed, besieged on all sides with no hope in sight, but all of a sudden, the cursed clan took the initiative to launch an attack on the Flying Dutchman?! What the hell was going on here?!
