"Eh?" the girl expressed doubts.

"If it is a star spirit magician who can open three star spirits together, it should be able to do it - summon the Star Spirit King!"

"Star Spirit King...but I don't have his key!"

"No key is needed! The key of the Star Spirit King... This kind of thing does not exist! What is needed to summon the Star Spirit King is the cost summoning technique! You can open the Star Spirit King's door by destroying a golden key..."

"Put the key..."

boom!

At this time, the sea water began to shake, and someone seemed to be attacking in the distance. The water under the mermaid also rushed forward like life, resisting unknown enemies.

"There's no time... destroy my key!"

!?

"That kind of thing!? How could I do it! I don't want it! No matter you or any of you, I can't lose it! You are my important family!!!" the girl shouted almost as she cried.

"Family? I didn't expect you to be treated like this... It's just that I'm a little nicer to you now..."

The girl was not affected by this sentence and was still staring at the mermaid stubbornly and sadly.

“…”

A unknown smile appeared on the corner of the mermaid's mouth and said calmly: "Don't you want to save your companion?"

“!?”

At that moment, the girl showed a very terrifying expression.

"Even if we can defeat these enemies in front of us, I... we cannot save your companions. In order to save them, you must do this. If there are other ways, I would not recommend you to do this. But... Only the Star Spirit King can help you defeat your enemies and save your companions."

"I don't want it! I don't want it!" The girl shook her head excitedly: "Why have to make such a choice!? I don't want to become like this!"

"I won't die if I destroy the key, I just become unable to meet... This is a relief for me." The mermaid said quietly.

The girl didn't speak this time, lowering her head as if she was tired.

"I won't die. I'm just back to the Astral Realm, but your companions will die, and there's not much time left for us."

“…”

The girl actually knew very well how to choose here. Although she would never see the mermaid again if she did not summon the Star Spirit King, she would not only die, but also her companion who treated her as her family. Although she was very sad, the girl still had to make a choice.

......wrong!

The mermaid was surprised to find that the key the girl took out was not hers, nor even the golden key she knew.

"Idiot, you got it wrong!"

"ah?"

The girl realized that although what she took out was also a golden key, it was not the kind that could be summoned... No, it was wrong!

"No! Didn't you say that you only need the golden key??"

"Idiot, I'm talking about our golden key, you..."

"But doesn't it contain very powerful power? Even the president said that the power contained in it is very huge! Although I can't use it to summon anything, this is what my mother left for me! As the best magician of the star spirit, the golden key left to me by my mother must also be related to the star spirit!"

Does the golden key related to the Star Spirit mean that the Star Spirit King can be summoned? Or summon a powerful Star Spirit... But no matter what, she has to give it a try, at most it will destroy a key that she can't use.
