"Liva, thank you so much for saving me and Mu Ma—twice."

"Huh? ...Well, it's okay."

After a moment of hesitation, he waved to Noa and Liva.

"I was almost washed away just now - as for the surveillance footage, I don't even have any recollection of it."

(…Guh, kill me.)

When Liwa thought of herself in the video who seemed to be crazy, she couldn't help but want to squat down with her head in her hands.

This was a bit...abstract to her.

“…Let’s go first.”

"Hurry and reunite—I hope they aren't affected by the sea water."

--------------------------------

"Boom!"

"Uh-huh!"

The strong water pressure held the Siren down tightly.

Under the rush, she was forced to drink a few mouthfuls of sea water.

"Gulu——"

A few bubbles escaped from the corners of his mouth.

A feeling of suffocation suddenly came over me.

She tried to struggle - however, the violent sea water did not let her go at all, and the violent movement gave the liquid a chance to pour into her nasal cavity.

"!!!"

Pupils are constricted.

Even a little bit of sea water brings a salty and acrid stimulation that is enough to cause the Siren to choke out all the air in its body.

Immediately afterwards, sea water rushed in.

(It’s over!)

No reaction at all.

Even with her reflexes, she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the huge waves rushing towards her from the other side of the corridor the moment she stepped out of the door.

As a result, the Siren, now pinned against the wall at the end of the corridor, lost her last chance to hide back in her room.

(Oh right... the panel!)

Use a tense consciousness to bring up the black panel.

However, Siren discovered with some despair that she couldn't reach it with her hands at all.

(Why…it’s a touch screen!!!)

At this moment, as her vision grew increasingly blurry, Siren couldn't help but think that this thought might be her last rant before she lost consciousness.

(It’s hopeless, I need to send it.)

His body instinctively spasmed to breathe, but only more fluid poured in.

She slowly closed her eyes.

……

She opened her eyes suddenly.

The blurred vision suddenly became clearer than ever before.

The suffocating water no longer felt like liquid, but like a void of gas.

The moment all the air left her body, Siren felt that her body no longer belonged to her - too light, too ethereal.

Some kind of switch in the brain is turned on, releasing the instinctive reaction hidden deep in the flesh.

The sea water is no longer salty but bitter - the sirens are breathing it.

"—!"

"Cough! Cough-cough-cough!"

A way of breathing that I have never been familiar with or experienced before.

This gave the Siren the illusion that "I am not breathing at all" - the sea water filled its "lungs", from which it circulated to extract the oxygen necessary for survival... No, at this moment its function was no longer called "lungs", but some more adaptable organs.

It's the gills.

Her long hair spread out in the water, and her pointed ears, which usually stuck to her sides and were hardly noticeable, now stood up again.

The purple agate-like eyes are even more crystal clear in the sea water - they are being polished by the sea water and they are shining.

Siren seemed unable to feel even her fingertips.

It's like it has turned into a fin, a fin used to glide over the waves.

This strange feeling from her heart was telling her that her body and her limbs were born to belong to water, to the ocean, and to the abyss at the bottom of the land.

A silver-white light flashed by.

“Hu…Ha…!”

In disbelief, the Siren reflexively spat out seawater, trying to relieve her "suffocation feeling".

However, she failed—to be more precise, she didn't feel any discomfort at all from the "liquid".

She was breathing, she didn't need to breathe.

The siren floated down from the wall and gently touched the ground.

"..."

(……what happens?)

She looked to her left.

There seemed to be a layer of blue covering it - just like the gauze decorating her mermaid costume.

She raised her right hand.

A one-handed sword appeared in his hand at some point.

The blade is slender and covered with glass-like decorations.

The hilt of the sword is inlaid with several hard objects in the shape of feathers.

The Siren had seen the sword.

This is exactly the same as the one-handed sword that Selene had - and it is also exactly the same as the one-handed sword that he took out from the card when he fought Selene.

(Celine...how is she?)

Siren suddenly thought of the gray-haired girl who had left with a determined expression not long ago.

(Never mind, why should I care... This is the business of Visas, the protagonist of their world.)

The sea water was still flowing in front of her, but Siren could no longer feel even a trace of obstruction.

"...Anyway, let's see what happened first."

Siren floated out of the corridor—more like swimming than walking.

Her body had completely adapted to the water.

Walking back to the door she had just walked out of, Siren tried to pull it.

Pulled a little.

However, when she noticed that seawater began to flood into the room, she immediately let go of her hand - Siren didn't think that the gamers could enter her current strange mode.

So, what we need to do now is obvious -

Comfort Yugi and the others, find Liva and Noa first, and find a way to solve this problem.

"Siren! Can you hear me?"

The vague sound of the game came from the room.

Even though it was like there was a very thick wall between them, Siren still heard the sound of the game with her excellent hearing.

"It's me! I'm outside!"

"Wait for me! I'll go check out the situation outside first!"

Siren shouted loudly inside.

The volume of her voice seemed different than usual - there was a noticeable obstruction in her voice as she spoke.

"Siren! We can't hear you from here!"

(really……)

Siren patted her head in annoyance.

It's difficult for sound to get inside.

"...?"

It's instinct again.

As soon as Siren thought about talking in the water, she felt her body could no longer control itself.

She found that her body seemed to know more than she did.

(All right……)

Suddenly I understood what I wanted to do.

(Singing...ah, this.)

Siren suddenly felt a little shy, which was rare... However, she decided to follow her instinct.

After all, getting things done first is the most important thing.

So she opened her mouth.

A sad melody came out of his mouth without any obstruction.

Unable to help herself, Siren hummed a tune that she didn't even know.

“Hmph—hmph—”

The sound waves spread smoothly throughout the water along with the song.

very clear.

The Siren followed her instinct and turned what she wanted to say into a beautiful song, spreading it behind her.

She herself left lightly, leaving only a blue silhouette behind.

"Please—wait—I—"

"I will be back soon—"

"Take—you—back—"

"Go this way."

Noa pointed to the road ahead.

Liva followed Noa up.

Looking at the surrounding walls, I found that many holes were blown open here for unknown reasons.

Moreover, for some reason, Liva always felt that this road was a bit like déjà vu.

(This is the path that the “I” took before… a bit violent.)

Liva touched under her left eye.

There was nothing... However, the previous video footage and the unanimous conclusion of Noa and Mu Ma told her that there had been something here.
