I, Seyi Falt, was currently vacationing on a deserted island.

That idiot master asked me to do a job, and I figured, well, what can you do, so I agreed to take it.

…But!

Why the heck do I have to work?!

I hate being a corporate drone, so I don’t want to work!

“So, today we’re all going for a walk on the seafloor!”

Wearing swimsuits, I made that declaration to the slave girls.

“““A walk on the seafloor…?”””

“Yes indeed. Just like it sounds, we’ll be walking along the bottom of the sea. There’ll be fish and all, so I think it’ll be fun.”

Oooh! everyone cheered.

“I want to walk on the seafloor!” “…………!”

Daphne-chan of the rabbit tribe and Sui-chan, the water spirit, both raised their hands in agreement.

I liked you two because no matter what I did, you were always the first to affirm it completely.

“I want fish too! I want to catch a whole bunch with a harpoon!!!”

Toka-chan the Fire Drakekin said, snorting excitedly.

If I remembered right, Toka-chan liked fish, didn’t she? Even though she was a Fire Drakekin.

“…However, if we are to walk on the seafloor, what about the water pressure? And also the issue of breathing.”

“Sui and I can operate in the deep sea, but the slaves cannot overcome either of those problems.”

The robot did not need to breathe, and Sui-chan could swim and did not need to breathe either because she was a water spirit.

“I’ve got that covered. Now is the time for a special-grade potion to shine!”

“““Special-grade?”””

The soft stone… that I snatched from that idiot master.

By soaking this in Magic Water, you could obtain an amazing solvent called Divine Water.

Using that as a base, you could make a potion with incredible effects.

Its name was the Special-Grade Potion!

“Ta-da. I call it the [Water Spirit Elixir]!”

“It has Sui-chan’s name in it!”

“…………!”

“That’s right. By drinking this, only while you’re in the sea, you can temporarily change your race to an Undine…!”

Zenith-chan looked stunned by my explanation.

“…A-a race change, something like that… isn’t that the work of the gods?”

“That’s the kind of thing special-grade can make possible.”

“…Amazing, amazing! As expected, Seyi-sama is amazing!”

Their affirmation felt so good.

Lately, that idiot master had been dragging me around and stressing me out nonstop, so interacting with these girls felt really nice.

“All right then, I’m handing out the Water Spirit Elixir. Drink up.”

I handed out the potion bottles. The slave girls drank them without the slightest bit of caution…

“…? Nothing has changed.”

“You’ll understand once you get in the water. Come on, let’s go!”

We splashed right into the water…

And then…

Paaah…! the slave girls’ bodies began to shine.

“Fwahhh~!”

“What in the—!”

“…My body is changing!”

The beautiful slave girls, and would you look at that!

“““We’ve turned into mermaids—!”””

That’s right, the lower halves of their bodies had turned into fish!

Just becoming water spirits would not make them swim faster. So I changed their appearance like this too.

By the way, I was in mermaid version too.

“Master, I want to become a mermaid as well.”

“You can shoot jet propulsion from your feet, can’t you?”

“Muu…”

What was she dissatisfied about, I wonder?

Well, whatever.

“At any rate, with this, we’re fully prepared to cross the sea! All right, let’s go!”
