That night.

Rainstorm.

Going upstream along the Chonghui River, the Shark Princess Witch entered the mountains through a tributary.

The clouds that Fomalhaut summoned in Skyreach City did not disappear even after she left. Although it did not snow, it brought down a rare and torrential downpour.

Because it was raining, she could unleash her full power away from the river, which was a great opportunity for her. She planned to use this opportunity to take down that lecherous wolf man.

The green-silver shark scales stood out against the dim jungle, and the moonlight filtering through the treetops shone on her, reflecting dappled light...

What about choosing another path? What choice did she have? Incompetence would get her killed, disobedience would get her killed, and the executioner would be the witch created by that magical girl skilled in assassination...

Even among magical girls, "Hunters" are considered outliers; even if they aren't assassinated directly, they might be poisoned while eating a meal sometime in the future.

Although the Shark Princess Witch doesn't need to eat.

Killing that Werewolf traitor would at least grant her recognition from the Other Side, offering a glimmer of hope for survival; choosing betrayal, however, would mean facing endless pursuit, a path to certain death.

"Um?"

I thought the Werewolf had gone into hiding in the mountains.

It turns out that a cluster of houses—no, a villa complex—was hidden in these mountains.

Each villa is unique, meticulously designed by renowned architects, clearly indicating a community for the extremely wealthy.

"A wealthy neighborhood, huh? That's really annoying..."

The Shark Princess Witch's memories come from the countryside of Japan. Chuanlang Bojiang's hometown is a small farm that makes fish cakes, and she harbors a natural hostility towards these wealthy people.

Although I want to tear this place down, it's unwise to cause trouble before achieving my goal. It would be better to fill his lungs with water while he's sleeping and drown him in bed.

The Shark Princess Witch knows the Werewolf's location.

The task assigned by "the Other Side" would surface in her mind, and that voice would guide her to find the target, which was unique and absolute to her, and all External Invader must obey this will...

Besides the flow.

The Werewolf were unaware of the impending danger. He sat on the second-floor balcony, watching the torrential rain pound against the trees, making a pitter-pattering sound, and let out a melancholy sigh.

He turned off all the lights in the villa, feeling that doing so would bring him closer to nature.

"... Can a cross-dressing pretty boy really catch a witch?"

A woman dressed in women's clothing...

No, now we should call him Liuzi.

Liuzi didn't know if he could be considered a pretty boy; he just felt awkward.

The skirt is soaked with emptiness underneath; are girls really that insecure?

He wore only a striped off-the-shoulder blouse on his upper body. He had drastically adjusted his physique, so the clothes didn't tear as they had before, and his muscle definition was no longer visible. He appeared slender and quiet.

His long hair was tied back, and he wore a black choker with a bow to cover his barely noticeable Adam's apple.

Calling her a pretty girl is more accurate than calling her a handsome boy; she would look even more beautiful if she wore glasses...

He was originally Infiltration Weapon.

This type of Monster was designed from the outset to infiltrate human society. In addition to transforming into the appearance of others, it can also adjust its body shape to a certain extent in order to disguise itself as people of different ages and physiques.

Of course, this applies only to men.

However, after transforming into a handsome young man, his strength will decrease, making it difficult to even drive the wolf-type armor in this state.

"If that shark-like punk girl were to call now..."

Call out--

Something whistling through the air grazed his ear and shattered the glass door of the balcony behind him. Liuzi instinctively rolled forward, only to crash headfirst into the glass railing in front of him—it was transparent, and he couldn't see it clearly in the dark.

Venus from the impact, and in pain rolled around clutching his head. He rolled onto the shards of broken glass, and then let out another series of howls.

Are you a comedian?!

The Shark Princess Witch rushed forward and kicked Liuzi in the stomach, sending him flying back into the house.

"Cough cough--"

Liuzi stood up, clutching her stomach.

"Miss Achernar? The rain is too heavy, I can't smell your scent... Um, are you unhappy with the nickname I gave you?"

Shark Girl.

Liuzi thought he was very apt.

"I've come to take your dog's life in exchange for my plane ticket home."

Despite the fierce threats from the Shark Princess Witch, Liuzi remained completely unfazed.

"Is that so? This is the path you've chosen?"

He sighed, then pointed to his head and retorted, "Then why didn't you blow my dog's head off in one blow? I didn't even move!"

"..."

"Hey, don't I look good like this?"

Afraid that she might step on shards of glass while barefoot, the Shark Princess Witch summoned rain to wash the balcony, piled the broken glass door in a corner, and then asked, "So, you've investigated Chuanlang Bojiang's interests?"

"Hmm~"

Liuzi deliberately used a feminine nasal tone, which made the latter shiver and hug his arms... Can scales get goosebumps?

"Since you say so, it seems you have indeed been influenced by her and captivated by my beauty, miss~"

"Huh? Give me a break! I'm just too disgusted by you to do it..."

The Shark Princess Witch surveyed the interior of the villa and asked, "Whose house is this?"

"Mine!"

Liuzi took out the villa key and showed it off in front of the Shark Princess Witch.

I don't believe it.

"Okay, it's Miss Sirius's."

"Sirius... is she still active?"

"Miss Sirius isn't human either, why can't we learn from her? Don't you want to live in a house like that, living a life of luxury every day...?"

In order to fully demonstrate his charm as a beautiful young man, Liuzi took the initiative to hold the hand of the Shark Princess Witch.

Such direct contact was extremely daring, and Liuzi was not unaware of the consequences. The Shark Princess Witch's magic caused his blood to flow backward into his heart, resulting in his immediate death.

"Miss Achernar, please follow me..."

The two went downstairs and entered the main living room.

Between the glass curtain walls that replace conventional walls, there is a vacuum interlayer, so although the villa is transparent, it has excellent sound insulation.

After all, the owner here is Sirius, the world's number one idol, so it's only natural to create a good singing environment. This villa isn't very big and doesn't have a professional broadcasting studio, so this large living room takes on that role.

Liuzi, who was already prepared, handed the microphone to the Shark Princess Witch.

"... What do you mean?"

"I'd like to ask you to sing, that's all."

"I'm here to kill you."

"If you've listened carefully to my proposal and are still not interested, then go ahead and do it. I won't resist."

The Shark Princess Witch clapped the microphone in her hand.

"... I am not Chuanlang Bojiang, her hobbies have nothing to do with me. If you think that making me sing can change anything, then you are being far too naive."

Like fingernails scratching a blackboard, like a microphone resonating on its own.

The Shark Princess Witch's voice is indeed unpleasant.

Liuzi ignored her and, talking to herself, selected an old song from the multimedia menu—an early single by Sirius.

"Hey, are you... tsk!"

The Shark Princess Witch hesitated until the prelude ended, then took a deep breath.

It resounded amidst the chords of the heavy rain...

It's heavenly music.

It is also the song of the Siren.
