Sea Siren, Yila

"Where... am I?"

The sea siren girl looked somewhat bewildered, her voice melodious.

Then her expression became exceedingly strange, and she began coughing violently.

It seemed some of the flavor from the Origin Brand Grapes she had eaten earlier still lingered.

"You're a sea siren?" A calm voice reached her ears.

The sea siren girl looked in the direction of the voice and only then noticed the young man beside her.

As well as the Octopus Monster some distance away, letting itself loose on the beach.

"Uh... that's right." The sea siren girl seemed to have only just escaped her state of madness, and her thoughts were still somewhat stiff.

But when she saw the shadow in Luo Chuan's hand, her pupils suddenly shrank, as though she was about to lose control again.

However, due to her physical weakness, that loss of control did not occur...

"You... how did you..."

The sea siren girl pointed at the shadow in Luo Chuan's hand, staring wide-eyed in utter disbelief. She could barely even speak coherently.

"You mean this?" Luo Chuan raised the hand holding the shadow. "This was what contaminated your soul. It crawled out of your shadow."

"Of course I know that..." The sea siren girl still could not quite believe that Luo Chuan could hold the shadow and remain completely unharmed. "How did you do it?"

"I just grabbed it. But it seemed a little afraid of me. Once I caught it, it stopped moving." As he spoke, Luo Chuan poked it. It felt soft and squishy, and still did not react.

Having only just awakened, the sea siren girl was once more greatly shocked by Luo Chuan's actions. It took her quite a while to recover.

She forced herself not to look at the shadow in Luo Chuan's hand.
