Love In Sirens
Gloria's Vision

After successfully taking over the ship 0AS-Ship 5389, Gloria gave further orders to Arios to appoint the ship's in charge and the members who would board the ship to be placed at one of the docks closest to the location of the lake siren. Acquiring the edict, Arios chose Cleo and about 50 other red sirens to board the ship.

After transformation, still their physical state is very striking and will certainly have a bad impact if met with humans later. This has been anticipated by Gloria and Gladius by creating a perneutral herb so that the physical condition of the drinker becomes more like a human, even with the condition of the red iris that can not be changed.

"Give this potion to Cleo." Tell Gloria to Arios, "make sure all members drink the potion even if only one drop," while thrusting a pitcher containing a lot of ingredients.

Arios lowered his body to take the jug while nodding, "well, Gloria."

Arios walked away from Gloria, who appeared only partially on the ship, looking for Cleo's whereabouts and giving a message in accordance with Gloria's orders.

Cleo picked up the jug and immediately moved towards her subordinates who were the crew of that ship. He ordered them to line up to get the droplet of the potion turned, to be more orderly and evenly distributed. Those who had already obtained the potion were required to enter the core deck to look for clothes that could cover their upper body, as they had to act and behave like humans in general.

Which people are in the ocean not wearing clothes? They will die of cold.

"Line up, if you can turn directly to find clothes for you to wear."

Strictly Cleo gave the instructions that the other red sirens were capable of. Once they get the drops of the potion, their originally terrible and even disgusting forms finally change for the better. Getting better is what is a challenge for them, very inversely proportional to what it should be.

Arios looked at the sirens that changed shape intensely, "eugh, it's not very suitable for you to be so good-natured. I almost threw up."

"We really want to?" sergeant Cleo grumbled.

"It's fate, just accept it" said Arios as he patted Cleo on the shoulder.

"Cih," Cleo grumbled as she turned her back to Arios annoyed.

Had it not been a direct order from Gloria as their queen, Cleo would have surely rejected this order outright. It is a red siren that holds true to the natural hatred of a very dirty and selfish human nation. The offspring of destructive and greedy who are very inappropriate for life, precisely at this time he must turn into a disgusting creature. His soul and body were very unwilling to do that, but on the other hand he did it for the sake of the nation and its pride.

There was no other shortcut, he still had to do it. Even with this very forced condition.

"Well, what's there to disguise yourself as that disgusting creature?" said one of the sirens that was in the back row babbling, he still had not got a drip of potion turn.

Cleo unintentionally heard the remark, she could also see the same look of unwilling face as she showed at this moment. He agreed with the sirens, only they still had to follow the boss.

Going back to the beginning, all for the sake of joint pieces must at least be able to sacrifice. That is how fighters are raised, educated, nurtured and shaped.

Cleo did not answer the curse, she just silently heard the words of her subordinates without judgment. He again gave drops of potions from Gloria to his subordinates one by one, along with those who changed their form and continued the follow-up as already conveyed.

Netra Cleo glanced at the line before her, intending to count the remaining men who had not gotten a share. Not much else, before sunset it seemed like this mission would be completed.

"Erio, replace me with this potion. I have to meet Arios and His Majesty Gloria for a further mission," Cleo told the siren beside her who had also changed form since then, he was Cleo's right hand.

Erio nodded in response, "good."

Arios saw Cleo's movements approaching him, his human form made him look cleaner, friendlier and his field body was no less gallant with his siren body. The sea breeze blew his long hair, making him have to squeeze his hair behind his ears. His red eyes looked straight at Arios who was slightly taller than his human body.

Cleo waited before Arios, "after the potion, what we did next. Did you go ahead with the incognito plan?" asked Cleo directly.

"Has everyone been given the potion?" Arios.

"A little more done. I've given orders to my subordinates to continue administering the potions until everything is discovered" Cleo replied.

Arios nodded, "well. Let's report to Gloria, we should discuss the continuation of our movement with her."

Cleo followed Arios who first walked ahead of her. Arios' long strides were very difficult to balance with Cleo's human body, so he had to run small to equalize his steps.

As Arios moved closer to the edge of the ship, he then ordered Cleo to wait for him there while he went into the water to summon Gloria. The potion made by Gloria and Gladius not only changes the outside of their bodies, but also to the function of organs.

To eliminate that function, they had to slash their wrists with a knife so that their form would return to what it was, the real scary red siren.

Cleo was still standing at the end of the ship, staring straight at the surging sea as waves and wind awaited the appearance of Arios and Gloria. Almost ten minutes, but Arios has not yet appeared, inexplicably Cleo's premonition says something is wrong down there.

Arios went into the water, leaving Cleo waiting on the boat as he could not dive as he should. His tail moved leaving a fine froth pushing him forward towards Gloria who was.

A few meters from where Gloria was, Arios could clearly hear a deafening shrill cry. The painful howling sound that only a few elite red sirens had, especially their leader, Gloria.

Yeah, Arios sure that's Gloria's voice. The sound was truly heartbreaking and extremely dangerous if not stopped immediately.

With a bang on his tail, Arios moved closer to Gloria who was holding her head up with perfectly red eyes. Her eyes had completely turned red, not just her irises. His body also stiffened vertically, his long hair growing apart along with the light from his increasingly dazzling scales.

"Y-the noble suddenly shouted like that after seeing his black gemstone, master Arios," replied one of Gloria's bodyguards.

Arios pressed his ears, "we have to stop him. You take all the sirens around here to come up to the surface!" his words were amidst the frenzy of Gloria's screams.

The bodyguard nodded, "well, sir."

Along with the execution of the order by Gloria's bodyguards, Arios began to approach Gloria again. The only way to resuscitate her was to press Gloria's back neck, and only Arios could do that.

Another siren immediately rose to the surface according to Arios' orders, trying to stay away from the range of Gloria's howl. Strangely, however, the sound of the screams was not heard as they had already brought their heads to the surface.

What the hell happened? What has he seen before? arios' inner still trying to get close to Gloria.

Gloria's howl managed to make a great vibration around her, so there would be a strong push that made it difficult for anyone to approach her at this time. Only a siren with a strong tail batter could approach him at this moment.

"Gloria! Did you hear me?!" arios yelled loudly against his tail to bring his body closer to Gloria.

"Gloria!" another scream that was even muffled with that howling sound.

Arios crashed up to 10 meters away from Gloria, not desperate he again approached Gloria. This time with his gun in his right hand.

"Gloria!" shouted again.

There was no answer, Gloria was still in her subconscious.

Arios was finally desperate. There was no other way, he had to smash his weapon into Gloria's nape. Empty hands will not arrive from the waves around Gloria, whose body will be blown away again.

"Gloria, I'm sorry but I have to hit you" cried Arios again.

With a bang on his tail, Arios' body speeded towards Gloria and then slapped his weapon at Gloria's nape.

Succeeds.

The howling stopped, along with Gloria's consciousness which also managed to knock her unconscious in Arios' current arms.

...****************...

Gloria blinked her eyes slowly, her consciousness finally returning. He could see the shrunken face of Arios staring at him at this moment.

"Arios?" call lirih.

"You're sober?" ask Arios while releasing Gloria's body until she moves back on her own with the help of her tail.

Gloria held her head, "ugh, it hurts."

"It's better to just rest first. I'm sure it's not just your head that hurts" Arios said.

Gloria held her throat, Arios was right. His current impulse felt like breaking up, he also repeatedly coughed because the pain was very painful.

"What do you see?" ask Arios to vent.

Gloria looked at Arios, "what about Cleo? Is the mission over?" gloria asked to switch the conversation, but she still seemed reluctant to tell Arios.

Arios let out a sigh of resignation, "it's done. I'm here to pick you up to the surface, discuss the continuation of our plan. Cleo can't come back here because of her human body" he replied.

"Okay, we'll get to the surface." Glori stomped his tail, moving first.

Arios momentarily looked at Gloria who had moved the bottom first, then resignedly he followed her back.

Gloria sighed, while trying to recover her strength. He must return to neutralize the soul of his body for the ambitions of their people.

"Herculas, I think this conversation should I keep secret from Arios for a while" he murmured softly to himself.

Who is herculas?
