Chapter 246: The Miss mermaid Who Turned Dark Before It Even Began
“Eh? What’s wrong with Hoshino? Her complexion seems off?”
The audience below, belatedly realizing something was amiss, began to look at each other in confusion as they observed Hoshino Seiya, who stood frozen and silent.
“Is she feeling unwell?”
“Wait… doesn’t she look a bit like…”
Damn!
Seeing Hoshino Seiya biting her lip, as if enduring something, Yagi Miyuki was taken aback.
isn’t this going a bit too far? This is on stage!
After a moment of being stunned, Yagi Miyuki muttered a few complaints and then hurriedly approached Hoshino Seiya.
“Yagi-kun—”
However, before he could speak, Hoshino Seiya had already pounced on him, tightly hugging his waist.
She seemed to still be rational, understanding that she couldn’t do anything too outrageous here, so she didn’t take any further action.
“What should I do…”
Yagi Miyuki was also bewildered.
He remembered Hoshino Seiya mentioning her condition had worsened, requiring only brief contact with him before, while it took nearly five minutes to recover in the forest last time.
As he stood unsure of what to do, the audience below was already indignant, uniting in condemning Yagi Miyuki.
“Yagi, you jerk, be a bit more mindful of the situation! Or did you threaten Hoshino to do this?”
“Let her go, I’ll handle it!”
“Should we call the police? It seems like Hoshino is really being coerced.”
It’s not me! I didn’t do it! It’s not my fault!
Yagi Miyuki was somewhat frantic!
Maintaining this state with Hoshino Seiya on stage for five minutes was definitely not okay… Right!
A sudden inspiration struck Yagi Miyuki, his face showing a desire for survival.
If he now announced that he was taking the unwell Hoshino Seiya to the infirmary, leaving the stage to Shion-senpai, wouldn’t that smoothly extricate him from this situation?

Misfortune comes with a blessing, the ancients did not deceive me.
“Are you okay?”
However, just as Yagi Miyuki raised the microphone, Shion-senpai approached, looking concernedly at Hoshino Seiya: “Hoshino, do you need me to take you to the infirmary?”
Yagi Miyuki: “…”
“Hm?”
Yagi Miyuki paused for a moment, clearly feeling that the grip of Hoshino Seiya’s hands around him had loosened, no longer like she wanted to strangle him before.
“No, I’m sorry.”
Hoshino Seiya seemed a bit slow to react but, remembering they were on stage, she instinctively pushed Yagi Miyuki away. Although her face was still red, the trembling had ceased.
“Has she returned to normal?”
Yagi Miyuki was in disarray.
The method he had just thought of to save himself had instantly gone bankrupt. Speaking of which…
Yagi Miyuki looked curiously at Hoshino Seiya and Shion-senpai.
Wasn’t it supposed to take at least five minutes to recover? How did it settle down so quickly when Shion-senpai came over? Was it deliberate? But it didn’t seem feigned.
“Go to the back for now.”
To resolve the awkward situation, Yagi Miyuki signaled Hoshino Seiya to stand at the back, then exchanged a look with Shion-senpai, saying a few words to ease the atmosphere, barely calming the boiling audience.
Although he was somewhat suspicious that Hoshino Seiya did this to take advantage of him, what troubled him more was that a rare opportunity to leave the stage had slipped through his fingers.
Yagi Miyuki looked at the script, falling silent and feeling increasingly distressed.
The next contestant was the real challenge. He hoped she didn’t bring a kitchen knife; otherwise, he would learn the true meaning of “sincerity” today.
…
“You did that on purpose, right?”

Hoshino Seiya, head down, walked to the back of the stage, joining the line of contestants who had already appeared. Facing her were Michako and Manyu with unfriendly looks.
“That was… irresistible.”
Hoshino Seiya wanted to cover her face.
“Irresistible?”
Michako raised an eyebrow but didn’t pursue further, instead turning her gaze to the entrance of the stage.
She remembered… the pink-haired girl was the only one among them who had prepared a talent performance.
Although she could pass with her looks alone, preparing such an item seemed redundant. But what kind of performance could the naive-looking Narase Mero have prepared?
…
“Next, senior high school first-year student Narase Mero.”
Yagi Miyuki looked at the script with a face full of helpless complaints.
In the talent performance section for the mermaid, it was strikingly written: Solo singing – “Love Song”.
He knew the song, a popular piece of music at the moment, often heard at weddings, fitting the competition theme.
But he didn’t believe it was Narase Mero’s own decision. If it were up to her, she probably wouldn’t even know how to wear a wedding dress, let alone prepare a performance.
And he seriously doubted Miss mermaid’s musical ability, given she didn’t seem very bright.
“Finished, I’m done—”
When he saw Narase Mero, with her pink hair cascading down her shoulders, slowly walking onto the stage, Yagi Miyuki’s face drastically changed! He almost dropped the microphone.
Not the normal mermaid…
Though Narase Mero was wearing a pure white bridal gown, her aura was dark. Her usually bright eyes were now dark purple. What really broke Yagi Miyuki was her morbidly curved smile.
Turned dark?
Yagi Miyuki admitted he was panicking.
Turning dark upon stepping on stage? Was it because he had been neglecting her these past few days? Was today’s grueling trial really the “end”?

Yagi Miyuki swallowed hard, looking at Narase Mero, who smiled and introduced herself without any excessive actions towards him. He was more alarmed than relieved, shakily raising the microphone, “Next, please enjoy Narase Mero’s solo – ‘Love Song’.”
As the accompaniment softly began, the moment Narase Mero started singing, Yagi Miyuki’s breath involuntarily stalled, his gaze gradually becoming vacant, then he sharply shook his head as if awakening from a trance, alert.
This voice… isn’t right?
Listening to the crisp female voice echoing through the gymnasium speakers, Yagi Miyuki looked at the instantly quiet audience below. He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but he felt their eyes becoming frenzied.
“Wait—!”
Yagi Miyuki’s face suddenly changed.
He remembered, in the novel “Mermaid and the Priestess,” apparently written by Ms. Moon, it was mentioned that mermaids could enchant humans with their singing.
This ability was described in the book as not very powerful, with a strong will being enough to immunize against it. In his constantly tense and alert state, he seemed immune, but the students below looked like they had turned into crazed fans!
Continuing this way, could Narase Mero end up as the final winner?
Yagi Miyuki was astonished.
He always thought Ninomiya-senpai would win easily, given her popularity and unmatched beauty. Now, it seemed… the situation was not good.
