Mermaid Merchant

Mermaid Merchant, or Mink as a companion, is a monster in the second part of Monster Girl Quest: Paradox.

Monsterpedia Entry
''“Even among mermaids, there are those who actively engage in trading. Taking advantage of the maritime network, their trade has spread throughout the world. They are typically friendly towards humans, but there are some who attack travellers and merchant ships to rob them of goods and valuables.''

''Their magical power is weaker than a typical mermaid’s, but their physical strength is quite high. They are also very calculating and dexterous.''

''They speak with strangely accented words, but it is not known what this local accent is. Some linguists speculate that it is derived from western Yamatai, which is no longer in use, but the origin of this accent, including its principles, is unknown.”''

Strategy
She can deal quite a lot of damage thanks to her magic stone skills. They automatically hit, and their variety make building resistance quite annoying. Simply keep your team healed and, if you have the opportunity, boost the willpower with a support skill like the White Mage/Minstrel and you'll be fine.

As for every other sea monsters, use lightning attacks to take her down.

Evaluation
''“You had not only your semen squeezed out, but you had to pay for it as well. To have your social status exploited in such way. Mermaid Merchant is a different kind of enemy that uses various items. She likes to attack with elemental stones. She is weak to Lightning and Earth. If you strike her weaknesses this shouldn’t be a hard fight. Now go, oh semen-squeezed Luka. Defeat that unscrupulous merchant who sheds blood without cutting flesh.”''
