## Story

### The Azure Demonic Sea

He guided the Hero of Light's Party to Byrsa Queendom and prepared for a ship to Atlantia. He apologises and reports to the hero's party that the ship he prepared was attacked by mermen and he was looking for a replacement ship.

He guided the hero's party to meet with his father, Triden. He was in charge of entertaining the hero's party.

Melora and Turkissos' sisters objected when the weak Turkissos said he would go with Reiji and the others. Triden was moved by his dutiful son and he praised him. Turkissos has been escorted by the Triton elites. He received reports from the familiar that Dalaugon entered the town and there were people who weren't Murmilians.

Turkissos volunteered to follow Reiji into infiltrating Woguchi by disguising as a girl dancer. Chiyuki gave him an important role, he is the one who has to make sure that Reiji can retreat in case of emergency. Turkissos was the one who could move best in the mist.

He screamed when Crampon licked him. Turkissos shakes his head in disgust as he was licked in the face. Turkissos was about to cry when Crampon instructed his servant to take all the girl dancer except him. Toyotima pulls Turkissos' hand and holds him close, and he was stunned by the suddenness of the situation. After leaving Crampon, Toyotima let go of Turkissos and went to the room that had been prepared for her. Suddenly released, Turkissos was confused. When Toyotima introduced herself, Turkissos looked surprised and stares at Toyotima's face. And then Turkissos realized that he had called her by her name and hurriedly covered his mouth. Kuroki noticed there was still vigilance in Turkissos' eyes. Both Toyotima and Pipipolenna look at Turkissos with great interest, and he doesn't seem to know what to do when a non-human sees him. He looks at Polen, Kuroki and Putina and gives them a suspicious look. Toyotima asked Turkissos whether she should return to the other dancers. Turkissos replied that it's fine because he can't dance. He explained with a stutter and a troubled look on his face that he was an apprentice just to observe. Toyotima and Polen went back to the banquet room with Turkissos. Turkissos is indecisive whether to contact Chiyuki while following Toyotima. He guess that Kuroki, Polen and Putina are the unfamiliar people that were reported, and he wanted to make a report. Turkissos wanted to know more about Toyotima, that's why he didn't rendezvous with Reiji.

Turkissos choked on the smell of Polen's farts. He touched the conch ornament on her ear and didn't seem to be paying much attention to the other dancers dancing. He kept looking at the entrance to the banquet room as if something was bothering him. Chiyuki failed to teleport Turkissos in the escape plan. Turkissos was detained and was shaking in fear. Turkissos is trembling with fear when it is known he is related to Reiji. Turkissos thanked Toyotima when she guaranteed Turkissos' safety.

He was brought as a prisoner to Murmil, however Toyotima took Turkissos to her room. He was surprised that there were too many misconceptions to his beliefs, especially the revelation that Dalaugon had the strength to destroy them, even without the forehead band.

Turkissos revealed his true identity to Toyotima. He conveys she is beautiful. Turkissos pushed Toyotima away from Faegir's abduction and he was captured by him instead. Turkissos was suffering from Faegir's tentacles entanglement. Turkissos was petrified into stone.

Faegir kept the petrified Turkissos at his Ogre Rock Castle In the exchange, Faegir threw Turkissos for the Sead's forehead band. The mermaid princess caught Turkissos. Reiji and the others undo Turkissos' petrification. Turkissos has returned to his original form. He seems to be unconscious, but there seems to be no problem. He remains unconscious. He wakes up from Toyotima's singing. He joins his sisters and Toyotima to weaken Faegir.

He returns the Sead's forehead band to Toyotima.

He, his sisters and the hero's party returned to Atlantia. Turkissos apologizes to Melora, when Melora hugs him.
