"Dokimste to an boreite," (Try if you can) the scout replied to Thania's hissing.
With the force aided by the push of her tail, Thania managed to pull Zayn up. But two against one, of course he lost in terms of strength. As Thania understood her current heart, Aoi appeared from behind and helped Thania pull Zayn back to the surface.
Aoi also gave a fierce resistance that overwhelmed the scouts. Right now they have to get to the surface, before Zayn runs out of breath. The arrival of Aoi's help has been very helpful, because Aoi alone can be counted twice the siren until they easily pull Zayn.
The two scouts of the red sirens released their pull from Zayn's feet, due to the pressure Aoi and Thania exerted. When it was released, Aoi ordered Thania to bring Zayn to the surface while she confronted the two scouts.
Thania pulled Zayn up, "hold Zayn!" please, because he feels that Zayn is about to lose consciousness at this time.
Aoi spread out her hands by holding her flagship weapon which instantly shone along with Aoi's scales. His green irises were already shrinking, a mark he was targeting the opponent before him with a hiss that was shrinking his opponent.
"May you touch our Lord!" annoyed Aoi took out her shiny claws.
The scout said, "that man is also from?" it was clear that the eyes of confusion on both of them.
Aoi raised her head to look at the two scouts from below, "you guys think?" he said with a flat tone makes the listener goosebumps up to their tailbone.
The powerful aura was very clearly visible to Aoi, they realized they would not be able to win against her that there they would die.
"We're going to back off now. You're lucky today" said the scout trying to hold his prestige. They finally decided to retreat and left Aoi who had almost severed their neck stalks easily.
With no intention to chase them, Aoi simply stared at their departure in silence. He knew they would not act foolishly just to die in his hands without orders from their leader, Gloria. Although loyal, they still deny their own lives no matter the situation.
After making sure the scouts left, Aoi turned around and returned to the surface.
Audrina patted Zayn on the back who was coughing due to the water filling her lungs, while Thania helped hold Zayn's body on her lap to hold her warmer.
Zayn's face was already blushing perfectly with tears drenching around his eyes.
"Let's get Zayn into the villa!" aoi's word had already risen to the surface. He took over Zayn's body and took it bridal-style to make it easier and ran towards the Villa with Audrina and Thania running behind.
Audrina went ahead of Aoi, "i opened the door once in a while" she said, looking through the keys of the house tucked behind a large pot across the door.
Aoi went straight to the fireplace to warm up Zayn's body, then told Audrina to take a towel and change clothes for Zayn.
"Thania, turn on the stove and make warm water!" Aoi's orders.
Thania who got the strange order looked at Aoi with question marks. He never interacted with humans like himself, how a primitive lake siren like himself understood how to make warm water with a stove.
"That's right, Aoi. You told me to make warm water with the stove? I don't know what the stove looks like" Thania said, shaking her head in surprise.
Aoi who was aware immediately chuckled softly, "rightly so," she moved up and told Thania to hold Zayn's head to stay on top, "let me do it, please, you're here to take care of Zayn."
"Well," Thania answered and placed Zayn's head on her lap.
Aoi immediately went to the kitchen to make a warm drink for Zayn, while Thania who felt uncomfortable with Zayn's wet clothes immediately helped her take off her clothes so as not to get moist so that her body warmed faster. Zayn had just closed his eyes, though he was conscious. It was done to suppress the focus of his breathing that was slightly disturbed because it was too long in the water earlier.
Audrina finally came back down and approached Thania and Zayn at the fireplace, carrying towels and a change of clothes for Zayn.
"Thania, here's the towel" Audrina extended her hand with a thick towel to Thania and was received directly by her.
Zayn slowly opened his eyes, "alright," and he sat down with Thania's help from behind.
Audrina gave Zayn a dress, "it's a change of clothes, Zayn."
"Thank you, Na," said Zayn Lirih while receiving a change of clothes from Audrina.
Thania, who still could not bear the condition of Zayn, finally offered to help her change clothes.
"Want me help you replace it?" tanyanya direct.
The slightly strange question left Audrina speechless, plus Zayn who was embarrassed to the point that his face flushed red from Thania's sudden unfiltered offer.
Thania was a woman. Which man does not blush like Zayn if a woman offers to change her clothes? Zayn is a normal man who still likes women.
Zayn lowered his gaze, "t-no Thania, I can do it myself anyway," he exclaimed painstakingly swallowing his saliva.
"You sure?" asked Thania again, he tried to get close to Zayn this time but saw Zayn who was trying to stay away from him made him ponder his intentions.
"Yes, I can do it myself" he said, moving on from his seat, "I change clothes first."
Thania and Audrina nodded to see Zayn directly move towards the bathroom to change his already soaked clothes. A sigh was heard coming out subtly from Thania's mouth which then decided to help Aoi.
Aoi was heating the water on the stove and preparing a warm tea like Audrina had taught her long ago. When they are still separated by loot and can only speak from a pseudo-heart. Unable to touch, just looking at each other to remove the deep longing that had somehow appeared from nowhere.
Aoi painstakingly tried to demonstrate step by step in accordance with Audrina's teaching of sugar, water, and so on. Audrina was only monitoring Aoi from a distance without any intention to intervene, her teachings were not in vain apparently.
"That's what a stove is called?" tanya Thania who was curious about the shape of the Villa planting stove was unique and had never met before.
Aoi nodded, "yes. This is the stove, the bluish-red one is the fire. Don't touch!" his cry panicked as the look in his eyes saw Thania almost touching the flames coming out of the stove.
Thania who was being treated was surprised, "why?" her tanyanya panicked too because of Aoi's rising tone of voice.
"That's hot! Later you blistered," explained Aoi as she pushed her hand gently away from the stove, "you just sit there!" his orders.
Thania snorted in annoyance, "uh, alright," her posture then sat on the kitchen bar stool while tapping her chin with her hands.
The normal activities that occur Villa increasingly familiar. Despite the unfortunate incident against Zayn, they managed to return to the Villa before the sun sank perfectly.
Their initial mission went according to plan, next was their advanced plan after this. Let's hope that all goes according to their discussion with Vivian and the elders in the valley.
"I'm done" said Zayn, exiting the bathroom, wiping his hair with a towel.
"Good, it's a warm tea first" Aoi exclaimed as she placed the tea on the bar table.
Aoi not only made for Zayn, but for the four of them. Finally, they decided to take a short break by drinking tea together.
Rarely is there a siren who wants to drink tea, right?
