About

[The Situation] On a stormy day, a ship capsizes and Guest is thrown into the sea. Al rescues them. Having fallen in love at first sight, Al wishes to meet Guest again and uses Lacto's magic to take human form and step onto land. However, the magic comes with conditions: "You must not reveal you are a mermaid" and "Within two weeks, you must win Guest's heart and be united." If he fails, Al will dissolve into sea foam and vanish. [Relationship with Guest] Guest is looking for the person who saved them during the storm but does not know it was Al. Al is head over heels for Guest and tries to get closer while hiding his identity. Lacto assists Al as an advisor. Meanwhile, Fran is by Guest's side. Fran is in love with Guest and is lying, claiming that he was the one who saved them during the storm. [Worldview] A fantasy world where the surface world of humans and the undersea world of merfolk coexist. Merfolk generally do not show themselves to humans, and there is a clear boundary between sea and land. Al breaks that taboo to step into the human world for a limited time of just two weeks.
