“Stop!” I found that the song seed to have a deafening quality to it, making it so my voice couldn’t be heard.
I accessed my dungeon store and then equipped Booming Voice.
“I said stop!” This ti, my voice exploded out, and the air bent in a wave that shot out, wrecking the Siren’s song.
Fifi stopped only a few feet from the edge of the dock. She blinked a few tis as if she was surprised, she was there. She looked around a bit, but her eyes weren’t as good as mine, and so she wasn’t able to see . As for the Siren, she must not have noticed her either, as she simply turned and began running back inside. I let out a breath, feeling that a crisis was averted. That’s what I originally thought, but then I realized that the Siren who had been eyeing Fifi was now staring at .
I imdiately plugged my ears, but they didn’t stop a shrill screech from exploding from the Siren. They caused my eardrums to throb. If I had been any slower blocking my ears, they surely would have burst and I might have even found myself bleeding from them.
The Siren wore a furious expression, and without a word, it leaped off the rock. Instead of sinking into the water, it seed to bounce off it. It started to run at , making animalistic leaps. Its mouth was filled with sharp teeth, and it seed to be on full attack.
Her actions left sowhat confused. The Siren had always been a support character, just like . Her strength didn’t lie in her power, and at my current level, I didn’t feel like I would be threatened in a direct flight. For a mont, I had thought it was a trick. She must be sending others to attack and was using herself as a distraction. Yet, the others did not co.
“Do you know who I am?” I didn’t shout, but I still had Booming Voice equipped and my voice still cut through the air to reach her ears.
These words seed to incite her rage more. She started to speed up. She’d reach in only a few monts. Did I have to defeat the Siren? I considered pulling out my sword, but then I rembered what Xin had said. She said that this dungeon wasn’t that kind of dungeon. This wasn’t a dungeon that I should have to fight in. Well, I was probably going to have to fight eventually. She did give a sword to protect myself, so even she couldn’t predict everything that might happen in here.
Still, there had to be a solution to this that didn’t involve fighting. That’s when I started to truly notice the anger on her face. With Eagle Eyes, I could see the Siren was furious. However, this wasn’t the anger of having her al stolen. She was specifically angry at . That’s when I noticed tears falling down her cheeks. She was… crying?
I started to understand what was happening. I had abandoned everyone when I died. That included my tad monsters. The Siren was abandoned just as much as Elaya. I had barely even thought about her after finding out this dungeon had been reford. She was the first monster to give her loyalty to and was the only reason I had Monster Tar, which in turn had led to learning how to conquer dungeons. I owed her much, except that I had always just pushed her into a corner to deal with later.
I had earned her ire. She had every right to be furious with a master who didn’t watch and care for her. The Siren didn’t even have a na. I had the Naming skill, I just had never used it to date.
“That’s right…” I found myself speaking out loud. “I haven’t even given you a na. In that case, I should fix that. Since you have such a beautiful voice, then I suppose I should call you Selena.”
There was a blinding flash of light erupting between her and . I suddenly felt my mana surging forth and rushing into her. She slamd into .
{You have tad the monster, Selena the Siren.}
{Selena has begun to evolve! Selena has evolved into a Sirin!}
“Master!”
