In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

After confirming the girl's physical problem, Maria immediately thought about how to solve her physical problem.

After a simple baptism of blood, the scales on its skin surface began to grow and it returned to its original appearance.

Of course, this doesn't mean it's been cured. It just means that Maria has suppressed it temporarily.

But this also gave Maria a wake-up call.

At least, in the future, her plan was not as successful as she thought, and these deep-sea hunters still had the possibility of erupting at any time... There might be such problems inside Dayan as well, and she might have to deal with it later.

"Wash yourself off and then come down... They must have been waiting for a long time."

"..."

Goletia said nothing, but just watched Maria leave in silence.

Then she looked at her body quietly.

Looking at her body gradually returning to its human form, she couldn't help but pursed her lips.

……

Gloria didn't make everyone wait too long. From beginning to end, it took only about five minutes before everyone returned to the table.

The ghost shark has not woken up yet and is still sleeping soundly.

Skadi was no longer as obedient as she was at the beginning, and was even a little afraid to look Maria in the eye.

Seeing this scene, Gloria also sighed.

Among the deep-sea hunters, except for a few people, most others do not know that Maria is not only their training instructor, but also the leader of their birth.

Most people still don't know that the Haisi genes in their bodies were also arranged by Maria...

That is why people like Skadi are still very worried that Maria will see through their current state.

However, Gloria didn't dwell too much on what was happening here. After taking a breath for a while, she silently looked at Maria in front of her.

He was silent for a few moments as he watched her have the puppet place a glass of bright red wine in front of her.

The puppet didn't say much, but continued to serve the prepared dinner to everyone, with drinks on the side.

Of course, except for Gloria's glass, the others were all real wine.

"What is this? A dinner party?"

Gladia grinned, her words a little subtle.

But despite saying so, Skadi next to him felt that his second captain was quite happy.

Ever since the Deep Sea Hunters were officially deployed to the battlefield against Kaiji, it had been a long time since they had such a relaxing meal together.

In most of my memories, it would be more accurate to say that everyone was just taking a short break rather than eating.

Compared to other hunters, they are actually quite lucky.

Thinking of this, Skadi's mood also dropped a little.

Maria and Gloria both noticed it, but neither said anything.

Gladia took the initiative to change the subject and looked at Maria.

"So... why did you call us here this time? It can't really be just for a meal, right?"

Maria doesn't spend too much time on this kind of entertainment-like activities... This is also the biggest reason why most Agor people feel that Maria is not one of them.

After all, even deep-sea hunters would occasionally hold dances or something.

"To be more precise, there are some things I want to ask you."

As had been determined before, Maria decided to face what was happening in front of her.

She was now certain that when Godan arrived, his body would be divided into several parts, and she would not be able to deal with them all by herself.

So she needed a group of people to temporarily delay those things while she was busy.

Deep Sea Hunter was obviously created for this purpose.

Maria also had to admit that from the fight with Gloria just now, she did show such a possibility.

Although each one is still very weak, if there are a certain number of them, they may be able to hold back Godan.

This also strengthened Maria's determination to go to Agor and participate in the Deep Sea Hunter Program in the future.

But before that, she needed to understand some things about the past.

"Where is Agor?"

"..."

"Ok?"

"I don't know... We've been away from Agor for a long time. Maybe it's moved somewhere else."

Gladia was a little hesitant about this topic.

Just as she said, the Deep Sea Hunter had left Agor for a long time after the last decapitation operation against Hai Si.

Among them, the biggest reason is that the deep-sea hunter has problems with its own existence.

The Deep Sea Hunters existed to fight against Hai Si. If Hai Si were dead, what would be the meaning of their existence? Would they have a chance to return to Agor society?

It doesn't seem that simple.

Of course, although they can now be sure that Haisi has not been completely destroyed, they still have too many problems if they want to return to the ocean.

"Is that so?"

Maria nodded, not too surprised by this.

Then he continued to ask questions.

"Then...why do you call me mother?"

Although from the perspective of blood relationship, it does make sense for this group of people to call her mother, Maria does not think it is natural.

At least, the deep-sea hunters we have seen so far usually have the blood of normal Agor people, Hai Si's blood and Maria's blood in their bodies.

This proves that these people are not artificial life forms created entirely from the blood of Maria and Hai Si. On the contrary, it is more likely that they are ordinary Agor people transformed with a mixture of Hai Si and Maria blood.

If that’s the case, then these people should have their own original lives...so why would they call Maria mother?

"That's not what everyone calls you... At least, among the deep-sea hunter community, only special individuals have the privilege to call you mother."

Gloria's voice was as calm as ever, but Maria's gaze fell on Skadi beside her.

If I remember correctly, Skadi explicitly called Maria mother.

"This one……"

Skadi seemed hesitant and didn't dare to speak.

She seemed to be hiding something.

But unfortunately, this hesitation was soon torn apart by another person.

"Because Skadi is afraid of the dark..."

"Goo!"

"Ha...you're still the same as before."

The clear female voice is as melodious as a ballad.

On the side, the ghost shark that had been sleeping finally woke up!

She slowly stood up and adjusted her seat.

The natural feeling in the madness gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a gentle feeling of a lady from a noble family.

She just sat there quietly, smiling and nodding at Maria with restraint.

"Long time no see, Mother Maria."

"Ah."

Although she was a little confused, Maria did not directly refuse. Instead, she nodded and chose to accept.

But she was still a little curious.

"Skadi...afraid of the dark?"

"...Yes, mother."

Compared with the stubborn Logos and the reserved and shy Skadi, the ghost shark Laurentina spoke so fluently about her mother that Maria felt a little confused.

But Skadi didn't think so.

She just looked at the ghost shark in front of her with an extremely complicated expression.

On the other hand, she was extremely happy that her compatriots could wake up.

But on the other hand, she was a little worried about whether the other party would reveal her secret.

The answer is definitely yes.

"When she was in the public care center, Skadi was afraid of the dark, so she was often the last one to stay up until she passed out from sleepiness. She was always energetic the next day. After meeting Maria, she was finally given some privileges and often rested with her mother, either listening to her tell stories or Skadi sing... Over time, Skadi started calling her mother."

Ghost Shark had a smile on his face as he gradually revealed Skadi's slightly shameful past.

This made Skadi's face turn red instantly.

Even Gloria beside him cast a hesitant look over.

Agor people...are there still some who are afraid of the dark?

what?

"Shark, how... did you know?"

Skadi couldn't hold it in any longer. Looking at Ghost Shark's smile, she just felt like dying.

But Ghost Shark spoke as a matter of course.

“Because I’ve been watching.”

"Gu..."

The two girls were happily chatting, while Maria was thinking silently.

Public foster homes...

The name of this organization gives you a rough idea of its function.

Judging from Ghost Shark's tone, Maria might have worked there for a while...

It was also during this period that she had some exchanges with Skadi. Only after gaining the other party's trust and favor would she be called mother?

If we look at it from this perspective, perhaps many things are not that simple.

At least, it would not be what Maria imagined, that she would directly launch the Deep Sea Hunter Plan as soon as she entered Agor.

Maria pondered.

Meanwhile, Goladia was looking at Maria.

It was obvious that something was very wrong with Maria at this moment.

Her questions, her every move, and all her reactions revealed her unfamiliarity and unfamiliarity with Agor and the deep-sea hunter.

just like……

She is nothing like she used to be!

Is this reasonable? !

is it possible? !

Gloria almost instinctively felt that this was a joke.

But unfortunately... neither the Maria in my memory nor the Maria shown now seems like the type of person who would joke.
