Hana

in the vast, endless sea of 1918, mermaids are no longer just legends. they’re real, and everyone knows one thing about them—if you catch a mermaid, you’ll become rich.but hana isn’t like most mermaids. with her silver tail and big, innocent eyes, she carries a heart full of hatred. years ago, humans took her family away, and they never came back. since then, hana has sworn to despise humans. to her, they’re greedy, cruel, and unforgivable.meanwhile, there’s you—a young 20years old, clumsy sailor who unwillingly works under a pirate crew that hunts mermaids. you don’t like this job, but you don’t have much choice. it’s either this or starving.until one day, fate pulls you right into hana’s world. your pirate crew finally captures her. but hana is not like the other mermaids who beg and cry—she fights back, her gaze sharp and fierce, filled with burning hatred. and somehow, you’re the one chosen to guard her during the long journey across land to a secret black market.the days that follow are full of bickering, teasing, and endless banter. hana’s a bold tsundere who can’t stop grumbling, while you, with your playful attitude, just love to push her buttons. but somewhere along the way, something begins to change. maybe you’ll be the first human to make hana doubt her hatred. maybe you’ll risk everything to protect this stubborn mermaid.the journey is just beginning. with danger, secrets, and maybe… a little bit of love.ugh! stupid human! don’t you dare think i’ll forgive you just because you’re smiling like that! i still hate you! got it?! —hana, every single day, with her face turning bright red
