The Serpents' Lair 3

"Hiss."

"Hiss~"

"Hiss!"

"Now you know to say sorry? Hmph! I will not let you go today no matter what," Tanzi looked away from the three hanging snakes and started enjoying the view of the snowy white Pandanus flowers around.

But of course from the corner of her eyes she looked at the crestfallen faces of those snakes and smiled softly to herself.

'Snakes can get cute too,' she thought to herself but hid her smile from all the snakes around.

"Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.."

"Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.."

"Hiss.. Hiss.."

The snakes that were still cowering around her struggled a little and finally decided to seek forgiveness for their brothers' sake.

With one snake starting the 'begging', all the other snakes followed behind it and started begging for her to let their brothers go free.

With around a hundred snakes continuously hissing around her, Tanzi's ears were about to explode.

She raised her hands to stuff both her ears with her fingers. She closed her eyes and shouted, "Okay stop now."

Of course she can simply decrease her hearing senses enough to not irritate her ears.

It is not that she did not get the idea.

She just wanted a reason to let those arrogant and now cute snakes to leave.

But she can't lower her head in front of them while letting them free. So she had to do a little show, right?

When she shouted, all the snakes stopped hissing at once and took a few leaps backwards in fear that they would be the next ones hanging above the fire in the next round.

Tanzi was speechless looking at the scaredy bunch of all these snakes.

Just how did they all grow up?

Maybe no one had ever come here from the time all these snakes arrived here and they did not face any other specimens except the snakes in their lives.

Otherwise, how could all these snakes never attack her even after being treated by her this way for so long?

In general even if a single snake faced a person, it would try to bite them for their self defence.

But here there are about a hundred snakes and not a single one dared to face her.

Yes, there are these three snakes that went 'against' her but they were just like a bunch of punky kids that liked being smug in front of everyone.

They are the typical all bark no bite type of beings.

Though they went against her, they just simply questioned her about why she came to their territory but not once did they try to attack her physically.

It somehow looks like…

It looks like they do not even know how to attack to save themselves.

It looks like they were used to being submissive.

She sighed while looking at them, "Okay. I will let them go for all your sakes. It was because you all were obedient from the start unlike some punks over here."

She gave a look at the three hanging snakes when she said the last sentence.

"Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.."

"Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.."

"Hiss.. Hiss.."

All the snakes finally dared to move forwards towards her as they thanked her loudly in joy.

Tanzi smiled at all the snakes that looked like a bunch of kids that were jumping around with joy after getting their favorite candies.

Just how cute and innocent these beings here are?

Looking at her smile, all their faces brightened up instantly and they dared to take a few more steps towards her again.

Fenella's face has always been small and frail. It would look cute and innocent once she smiles.

Now that Tanzi smiled with this petite and cute looking face, she looked very friendly and approachable at once making all the snakes forget that she was the same person whom they regarded as a Demoness a few moments before.

Looking at their joy, Tanzi's face also softened a little more.

She thus helped the three snakes out of their 'danger zone' and let them free.

Once free, they wriggled their slippery bodies around and then stuffed their bodies inside the snow to cool their warmed up bodies caused by the fire.

Looking at their actions, all the other snakes started making fun of them while joking around like a bunch of good brothers.

"Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.."

"Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.. Hiss.."

"Hiss.. Hiss.."

Tanzi too joined them and started laughing along looking at the three buried snakes.

In a moment everything turned from a horror scene to a joyful party. There was cheerfulness everywhere around the air.

As everyone was enjoying their time, they suddenly heard a deep voice which instilled chills behind one's spine, "Oh! What do we have here? Are we having a party? You should have invited me to your little party too."
