Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Chapter 48: Murder to Silence

Shen Tang stared blankly at the bold font on the last line of the ingredient list.

Mermaid’s Tears?

What the heck is this?

Fortunately, there was an introduction beneath the ingredients.

[Mermaid’s Tears: The tears shed by the Deep Sea Merfolk during extreme emotional fluctuations, which condense into beads upon contact with air. They are as transparent as crystals and have magical effects.]

Shen Tang was utterly exasperated; there was indeed a pure-blooded mermaid by her side, and a noble member of the Royal Family at that.

But that mermaid’s attitude towards her was indifferent and dismissive, not even wanting to see her. The two hadn’t seen each other much since they returned.

Let alone acquiring his tears.

I wonder if such rare items can be bought on the black market.

Shen Tang planned to go out and search for the raw materials mentioned in the manual. They definitely couldn’t be bought on the ordinary market, so she could only try her luck on the underground black market.

The Beastmen she encountered along the way cast strange glances at Shen Tang, whispering and gossiping.

"Hey, who was that female just walking past? She kinda looks like that fat woman, Shen Tang?"

"What? You say she’s Shen Tang? I thought she was a new female at the shelter, and I was just about to go over and introduce myself."

"It really is Shen Tang. I’ve seen her wear that outfit before; there’s no mistake about it!"

"Oh my, am I seeing things? Why does it seem like the fat woman has become prettier, her skin is so fair, and she looks quite a bit slimmer, almost a bit sexy."

A Beastman nearby laughed and cursed, "You must be starving to the point of desperation to find that fat woman attractive!"

"But she really doesn’t look the same as before, such a big change. I can hardly remember what she used to look like... Was she really that ugly before? I can hardly recall. Maybe we were seeing her through tinted glasses."

Not paying any attention to the chatter around her, Shen Tang tried to go out as little as possible these days. And when she did, she chose times with fewer people around, just in case her sudden change would make others curious.

Time would gradually dull people’s impressions of the original owner, and even if they had suspicions, they wouldn’t think too deeply about it.

Not far away, Shi Yin was shopping for clothes with her Beast Husbands. Hearing the faint commotion outside, her good mood was spoiled. Upon seeing Shen Tang, her expression turned even uglier.

One of her Beast Husbands, You Yi, stroked his chin with interest in his eyes, "Huh, how did the fat woman become good-looking? That face looks much more delicate, though the nose and mouth are still ugly, those eyes are really pretty and lively..."

"Are you blind? How dare you say that ugly monster is good-looking! Or do you think I’m not as good as that ugly monster?" Shi Yin’s face turned dark and ugly, and in her anger, she slapped him.

You Yi’s handsome and delicate face instantly bore a red imprint of her five fingers. He grinned, not daring to retort, and placated her servilely, "Yes, yes, I am blind. That ugly monster can’t hold a candle to even a single one of your fingers! I deserve a beating!"

Only then did Shi Yin feel pacified, but when she looked at Shen Tang not far away, her face twisted with malice again. That Mole Beastman truly was unreliable, for how did this ugly monster survive and come back looking so much better?

Those eyes were incredibly enchanting, so much so that Shi Yin was insanely jealous, wishing she could gouge them out!

Walking along the road, Shen Tang suddenly sensed a venomous gaze, as if someone wished to tear her to pieces.
