I managed to stop the Nekomata from diving into the water after Merrick and brought her back up on the beach.
Granted, Emilia was screaming expletives all the way but it's a good thing her strength was lower than mine so she couldn't break free from my grasp.
"Ungrateful bastard! Stupid fish! When I get my hands on you, I'll fucking skewer you and grill you nyaa!!!"
The Sirens came towards us, looking quite concerned.
"What happened, Aster? Why are the ships on fire?" Allure asked.
Emilia screamed before I could, "We got betrayed, that's why!! That ungrateful little shit!! This is why I only need money and not all these little pieces of shit, nyaaa!!"
Odeta tilted her head at the Nekomata, "Hmm… Weren't the two times you got betrayed was both due to money?"
"No! It's both due to the people involved being absolute morons!!"
It's not even worth arguing over it, Odeta… Just let her be…
