When Kim Haru dipped his hand in to test it, the temperature felt comparable to regular tap water—not as biting as winter tap water.
If even Kim Haru found the water tolerable, the ducklings—equipped with mutated genes from the post-apocalypse world—certainly wouldn't mind. They cautiously tapped at the water with their beaks, testing for danger. Finding none, they flapped their wings excitedly and leaped in.
Sploosh!
One after another, the yellow ducklings tumbled into the water like golden dumplings, sending up small splashes.
At first, the ducklings seemed a little panicked, their wings and feet thrashing wildly on the surface. But when they realized they weren't sinking and were perfectly safe, they quickly calmed down. Soon, they found their rhythm and began to swim around with ease.
