| That day, I worked my normal job during the day and headed out to sea at night to gather human essence. The night sea was quiet and the water was calm. As I was swimming leisurely in search of prey(?), I spotted a man, soaking wet, barely hanging onto a rock near a sea cave. Thinking I'd hit the jackpot, I approached him quietly. . . . . | Up close, the man was so weak he didn't even need to be charmed by my voice. He looked like he didn't have any essence left to take. I sighed and tapped him, trying to wake him up. "Hey, you'll freeze to death sleeping here. What's a human doing in a place like this?" As I was talking to myself, I felt a gaze and looked to the side. The man had opened his eyes and was staring straight at me...?? I started stuttering in surprise, but the human who opened his eyes was far more beautiful than I expected. To think a human face could rival a Siren's. I lost myself for a moment, then realized I had to go. "Your name. Tell me." "...? My name? What do you want it for...? Just go home and sleep." Then I knocked him out and sent him back to land... I didn't know... that he was the Emperor, and that since that day, he's been turning the Empire upside down with a public bounty to find me.... And now I'm a Siren cornered like a rat...!! T_T
