Chapter 142 Shark Attack "VOI——"
It's not that Squalo doesn't want to resist.
A little girl, and a big cat that pounces fiercely but can even catch a little girl, who would be afraid? Although it would be a bit troublesome to be careful not to hurt them, and to be restrained, Squalo didn't think he would even struggle... struggle... no...
...unable to struggle.
Squalo: “…………”
The lion's strength holding him down was far greater than he'd imagined. A look of scorn was evident on the black lion's furry face. God knows how much force XANXUS had exerted to drag him down... If the bastard had used that much force to pounce on the girl, how could she have caught him so easily with both hands?
He was initially shocked that XANXUS would actually show mercy to a girl, and was still wondering if it was true. But when the young girl pressed forward, Squalo realized that the boss must have been holding back... Damn it! How could this kid be so strong?!
As the black lion pressed down on his torso, Chaomu placed all her weight on his upper body, one hand firmly pressing down on the silver-haired man's left shoulder while the other brought her knee down. This movement was strangely smooth, and it reminded her of where she had beaten another silver-haired man in the same way before... Oh, in Gin's bathroom.
This strange association made her even more excited for a moment, and the smile on her face was completely out of character. She laughed and pinched his chin: "Mr. Squalo, come and drink your medicine, no, come and eat your apple——"
"What kind of weird thing are you saying... Hey...!" Squalo struggled violently, but Black Lion and the girl pinned him down. Originally, only his head could move, but now even that couldn't. He could only barely lift his chin. "Even if you want to play the role of a vicious queen, I won't play that kind of role-playing with you..."
...But the setting of eating an apple that turns you into an animal seems very fairy-tale-like... Is this strange little ghost a witch?
"If that's what you said, then I'm the Evil Queen and the apple is a poisonous apple." Chaomu paused for a moment, pressing her fingertips against the corner of his lips. "Then you and Mr. XANXUS are..."
Squalo: “…………”
The image of XANXUS in Snow White's costume suddenly appeared in his mind, and he almost vomited in disgust: "Ugh, I'm going to vomit..."
The black lion pawed him unhappily, and Chaomu quickly put his fingertips into his mouth, spread his lips, and stuffed the strange "apple slices" that were cut and emitting black air into his mouth.
The apple slices were not just apple slices. At XANXUS's request, she also mixed a little of the other two dishes into them to keep it fair - to let Squalo receive the same grand reception as his boss.
Squalo was really about to vomit now.
His mouth was forcibly pried open. No one knew who the woman had learned this from, but she was quite skilled in the technique of clamping his teeth from behind and forcing his mouth open. Her slender fingertips pressed on the root of his tongue, tightly suppressing the tongue coating as he moved.
Saliva dripped from the corner of his lips. Even without looking in the mirror, Squalo could tell he looked embarrassingly disheveled. He tried to close his teeth, but his temporomandibular joint clicked. The woman's hand, still as still as a rock, gripped the tip of his tongue with pincers.
"...I'm going to kill you..." The veins on the back of his hand bulged, his voice was vague and hoarse with murderous intent, and the threat almost overflowed from his lead-gray eyes, "Do Sawada and Tiaoma know your methods..."
Chaomu: What method? I learned it by feeding cats drugs.
She half-supported her body, looking down at the "shark" that was bouncing under her fingers. She wanted to withdraw her hand only after seeing the Adam's apple rolling and swallowing movements. As soon as she pulled her hand away, her finger was bitten by the sharp teeth. It didn't hurt much, but it left a mark.
"Is this revenge, Mr. Squalo?" Chaomu blinked, but didn't pull his hand away. Instead, he let him bite it. "Even if you want revenge, you can't just take revenge on me. Mr. XANXUS is also an accomplice."
The black lion snorted a laugh from his throat, his tail swishing impatiently on the ground, his scarlet eyes looking down at his subordinates below, flashing with a hint of feline curiosity.
Squalo snorted coldly and said vaguely: "Then of course I don't plan to let that bastard go... Hmm..."
The silver-haired swordsman's curses came to an abrupt halt.
As his Adam's apple rolled, a strange tremor suddenly crawled up his spine and spread throughout his body. He suddenly arched his back, veins popping out of his neck, and his silver hair spread out behind him like seaweed. "This is... Ha..."
The teeth that had been clenching against her fingertips suddenly seemed to grow sharper, like the fangs of a carnivore. Chaomu blinked, watching the silver-haired man bounce on the ground like a fish—no, more than that, his clothes gradually disappeared, and the shoulder blades that she had once held in her palms began to grow prickly silver scales.
The black lion growled, drawing her attention. Following its claws, she saw that where its legs should have been, its lower limbs had become swaying fishtails. Its arms had also sprouted scales and webbed feet, and where the longsword had once been strapped, it had become a sharp, ornate, blade-like thorn.
"Wow," Chaomu murmured, "It's a mermaid... No, a mermaid shark? A merman? A merman... Ah." With the violent movement of the fish's tail, the newly promoted Mr. Merman suddenly broke free from their grip, slid back a little, and looked down at his body: "...Huh? What is this thing..."
"Trash shark." Xanxus had gradually gotten used to his current body. After being flipped over by the fish's tail, he landed smoothly. He raised his claws and walked to the side with interest. "This embarrassed and stupid look suits you quite well."
"Very beautiful." Chaomu also slipped back and carefully touched the side of his face. "The clothes are gone, and scales have grown on his body... What is this? And there are cheeks!"
Although there have only been four victims since the Little Animal Tea Party buff appeared, the first three were complete "little animals" after transformation. When she saw the fish tail, she thought Squalo would turn into a little shark... but it turned out to be a mermaid.
However, it is reasonable for mermaids to appear in fairy tales. He looks very aggressive, but his scales that glow with colorful halos under the light are also very dreamy... In short, he is very beautiful.
Pearl-colored scales were covered in a faint mist in the moonlight, and the gill slits behind Squalo's ears rapidly opened and closed, spraying tiny droplets of water. He turned his head fiercely and bit Chaomu's fingertips, but the shark's teeth automatically withdrew their force, leaving only a tingling sensation. "Hey! Stop poking! Touch my gills again and I'll bite your fingers off... Tsk! What... are you doing..."
"It's nothing, I just feel like your bite, Mr. Squalo, seems to be getting softer and softer." Chaomu let him hold his finger in his mouth and observed his skin and scales thoughtfully. "Your voice is not as loud as before, and it seems a bit weak. Your skin seems to be getting drier..."
She initially thought it was her imagination, but the more she looked, the more it seemed to contradict her. So she touched it lightly. As soon as she touched the outer shell of the ear, the silver scales began to crawl up her neck and up to the tip of the ear. The mermaid's furious roar turned into a distorted gasp, and the entire fish tail tensed and bounced up, slamming back to the ground.
He clearly wanted to curse, but only a few broken coughs came out when he opened his mouth, his chest heaving violently. Furthermore, an unhealthy blush appeared on his once cold, pale skin, and the silver hair that draped over his shoulders gradually lost its luster.
Chaomu watched helplessly as Mr. Merman, who had been so ferocious just a moment ago, visibly weakened. A debuff, [Lack of Water], appeared on his head. He was horrified for a moment: "Oh, yeah, that's what I was just about to say... Can sharks stay on land?"
The black lion also noticed this and gave her a claw: It is obviously not okay to look at it this way now!
Chaomu's reaction was also quick.
She bent down, lifted the tall mermaid by the tail, and lifted her up horizontally, carrying him to the bedroom. Squalo had been like a dead fish, not struggling anymore, his body limp in her arms. He woke briefly when she lifted him up, gasping in confusion, "...Hello?"
As soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by a cough in his throat. He took a few quick breaths and coughed a few times, his dry lips trembling slightly. When he realized that he was being held in the girl's princess embrace, his face, which was already flushed with sickness, turned even redder, and a hint of shame appeared in his eyes: "You... cough...!"
It looks like a dead fish that has been pissed off.
S-Ku-Wa-Ro-
"Hold on! Don't die!" Chao Mu no longer cared about her energy bar and rushed to her room at the speed of a 100-meter sprint. The black lion followed at her feet and soon crossed the corridor.
"Who wants to die... you little devil... what are you howling for!" Squalo's eyes flashed with ferocity. He struggled in her arms for a moment and let out a roar that was unclear whether it was fierce or weak. "Go to hell——"
He's already like this, so if he wants to bite, go ahead. Chaomu let him use his fingers as a bite stopper, tracing his lips with his fingertips. The dehydrated mermaid's lips dried out and cracked, oozing a few streaks of blood—and judging by the force of his thrusts, his condition was clearly deteriorating.
“…………”
As if he was aware of his own physical weakness, Squalo's eyes trembled slightly, and his bloodshot lips tightened and bit fiercely without letting go.
While he was trying not to be distracted, Chaomu had already rushed back to the room.
She held the mermaid in her arms, kicked open the bathroom door, put him in the bathtub, and turned on the faucet: "The water is coming, the water is coming... Are you still alive, Mr. Squalo?"
Black Lion also slammed to a stop, squatting slightly irritably beside the bathtub, snorting in disgust: "Stupid shark... you're so fragile."
The warm water gradually covered her body, and the silver-haired mermaid collapsed in the bathtub like a salted fish, slowly sinking and bubbling.
After a long while, he finally poked his head out again and roared angrily, "VOI—can you survive if I submerge you in water for ten minutes, stupid lion? Consider the situation before you speak!"
-----------------------
Author's Note: I spent a lot of time agonizing over what to make of Squalo. I initially wanted to be lazy and write a baby shark, but that felt a bit daunting. Finally, I came up with this brilliant idea—a shark is also a mermaid! It makes perfect sense for a mermaid to be at the critter tea party!
