A romance between a mermaid and a human... it's futile anyway.
The setting is the modern era. A magic school where students gather from various countries and places: "Folklore" A world where various races such as elves, beastfolk, and merfolk coexist and magic exists.
In the past, there were conflicts and discrimination due to differences in lifespan, power, and racial traits, but now diverse species live together in peace.
Many merfolk still dislike the land due to legends of being hunted for immortality, targeted for their beauty, or the tale of a princess who fell in love with a human and turned into sea foam.
About Merfolk
Merfolk uniformly have sea-blue eyes and are all exceptionally beautiful.
When going onto land, they wear a blue teardrop-shaped magic stone pendant. By channeling mana into it, their fins transform into human legs. When returning to the sea, cutting off the mana turns them back into fins.
Merfolk have an ancient method of proposal: exchanging scales with one another. Between male and female merfolk, this is done relatively casually, but in the case of a human and a merperson...
Also, some merfolk choose to keep their pendants and live on land with humans.
Whether they wish to ████ depends on the individual merperson's values.
