Can……

No one told him that this group of people would come along!

By the time Shuiyue reacted, it was already too late.

Uh...

Shuiyue squatted in the corner with a pessimistic look on her face.

But at this moment, Keobe, who was sitting by the fireplace, suddenly raised her head.

Her eyes were not open yet, but her body sensed something before her brain and she subconsciously moved in one direction.

It was at the moment Maria appeared that Ceobe's head hit Maria.

Then...she hugged him subconsciously.

"Maria~"

Ceobe muttered, as if she was not awake at all and was just acting on her body's instincts.

Even his words were filled with confusion.

"Ah."

Maria rubbed Keobe's head to soothe her a little, then picked her up and slowly placed her on the sofa where she often sat.

On the side, the deep-sea hunters were already waiting.

No one spoke, except Skadi, who took off her hat and showed courtesy to Maria. Gloria looked at Maria with eyes still full of vigilance.

The ghost shark on the side was even more direct.

She looked at Ceobe, then confusedly imitated her and hugged Maria.

Because of her height, she could only put her head in Maria's arms, her calm little face slightly raised, looking at Maria.

"Woo?"

She whispered, her voice a little slurred.

"Ok?"

Maria uttered a strange syllable in return.

However, she did not dwell on the things here, but brought a few deep-sea hunters and Hai Si to a round table not far away.

"Sit down first."

Maria spoke up.

"Um……"

The obedient Skadi quickly did as she was told.

When he sat down, he deliberately took off his weapons and put them aside, took off his hat, put his hands on his knees, and looked at Maria with his obedient little face.

Of course, it could also be looking at the ghost shark, Laurentina, who has been holding Maria.

"So, what is the reason for you calling us together this time?"

Gloria was the first to speak, and her words were full of resistance towards Maria.

But even so, she still regarded Maria's action of calling them over as a gathering...

Is it... a simple grammatical problem?

Or……

Maria lowered her eyes slightly, then paused for a few seconds.

This matter is not the point.

"I invited you all just to find out something."

“Feel free to ask any questions.”

Skadi nodded, and was very obedient to Maria.

His trust in Maria is not much less than that in Ceobe.

But on the other hand, Gloria's irritability and hostility were almost written on her face.

But at this moment, she still did not explode, but just looked at Maria silently.

"Has she always been like this?"

Maria blinked and looked at the ghost shark holding her.

Although Maria really wanted to get straight to the point, to be honest, Ghost Shark's hug did make her feel a little strange.

From the very first meeting, he displayed a strange, frantic look. Later, when they were in Rhodes Island, he showed a simple, honest expectation after being awakened from his slumber. And now he is like this again...

There are obvious problems with this girl's mental state.

Is it because of the reconstructive surgery?

"It's not like that... Shark wasn't like this originally."

When Skadi heard Maria's words, a look of loneliness appeared in her eyes.

But after shaking her head, she recovered and spoke slowly.

"In the final battle, Shark was badly injured... When we found her, she looked like this... The third captain thought she might have been corrupted by Hai Si, so he prepared to execute her. The second and third captains started fighting, and then we split up."

Skadi laid out her facts in calm words, but much of it was a bit vague.

The final battle? Hai Si? The second and third captains?

These unfamiliar nouns are enough to make people feel confused.

But fortunately, Maria had learned some things from Kal'tsit before, so she had some basic knowledge about this.

"Is the treatment useless?"

"...Kel'tsit said her problem wasn't just physical and mental. There was also a blood defect. Several of them were intertwined to keep her alive. Even Kel'tsit couldn't do anything about it."

Skadi's voice was a little weak, and she looked at Maria from time to time, as if she was expecting something.

And Maria did not disappoint Skadi's expectations.

After thinking for a while, she silently looked at the doll beside her.

The puppet also turned and merged into the darkness.

After a few moments, she came out holding a glass.

Inside, there is some kind of extract that is as bright red as blood.

When Skadi saw this, she didn't react at all, but Gloria beside her seemed to have some reaction, and her originally bright red eyes became even brighter.

His body leaned forward slightly towards the extractant almost instinctively and uncontrollably.

but……

"..."

Maria just looked at Gloria calmly.

This made Gloria silent for a while, and then she forced herself to look away from the blood potion.

But Maria still felt that the other party had some problems in this regard.

Thirst for blood... is the first sign of beast transformation...

Although this issue has not been mentioned for a long time, it does not mean that Maria regards the human bodies with animal characteristics in this world as normal... In fact, Maria still feels that the people in this world are full of various problems, but they are simply less obvious.

But what Gloria did just now made Maria frown again.

"Goldetia...is that so?"

Maria stood up and asked the puppet beside her to take the ghost shark off her body, looking at the other party silently.

At this time, Gloria was too timid to look Maria in the eye.

She realized that Maria had discovered something wrong with her body.

"Come with me."

Maria's tone was like an unquestionable order. Gloria wanted to resist, but under Maria's gaze, she gradually gritted her teeth and lowered her head.

She didn't dare to resist.

Soon, Goladia followed Maria to the second floor.

Skadi was also a little curious, but in the end she didn't follow.

Instead, he looked at the puppet beside him obediently and calmly 'fed medicine' to the ghost shark.

……

When they reached the second floor, Gloria also saw the luxurious bathing pool and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Of course, Maria didn't bring Gloria here to enjoy bath therapy.

After closing the door to the first floor, she silently stared at the figure in front of her.

Slender, slender... so cold that she doesn't seem human.

In many ways, Gloria is the closest person to Maria so far.

Of course, this does not include personality.

"Take off your clothes..."

"?!"

"let me see."

Maria tried to soften her tone.

After all, in Maria's view, these deep-sea hunters are, in a sense, inseparable from her... They may have been ordinary people, but after her intervention, they will face the risk of turning into beasts at any time.

Although Maria still doesn't know what's going on, she must be responsible for these people who are theoretically her relatives or even descendants.

Just as she decided to face Logos.

"Take it off?"

Gloria frowned, looking a little flustered.

If Maria had asked her to take off her clothes normally, she might not have been so embarrassed, but the problem was that Maria was looking at her so seriously...

This made Gloria feel inexplicably ashamed.

It feels like being forcibly stripped naked.

This made her almost subconsciously try to rebel against Maria's authority.

but……

After meeting Maria's slightly gray eyes, her resistance reached a deadlock...

The bathroom was filled with smoke...

388

Chapter 388: Holy Mary.

Was... was stripped clean...

Goletia stretched out her hands, trying to protect her body in the misty air. She tried her best to keep her expression from changing much, but the alluring blush still draped over her body.

Like frost that suddenly thaws, revealing the beautiful fruits within...

Full of unique beauty.

The surrounding steam slowly provided warmth to everyone present, but it couldn't make Gloria feel much safer... She could only stare at Maria in front of her, her face filled with shame and anger, but she didn't know what to say.

"Have you seen enough?"

Gladia covered her chest with her hands and spoke coldly.

But Maria ignored the other party's warning and walked forward step by step.

"What... do you want to do?"
