"Don't come any closer!" Si Yan shouted nervously.
Only then did Wang Dao realize where the problem lay. He calmly transformed his lower half into a serpentine form, scales covering all that should be covered.
Si Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she backed away continuously. "You're a snake—a Snake Beastman!"
"Mm," Wang Dao affirmed.
"I... I'm afraid of snakes. Stay away from me!"
Her fear of snakes was both physical and psychological.
She had been forced to stay calm just moments ago, but not anymore. With Wang Dao in human form, his oppressive aura had dissipated significantly.
Wang Dao blinked, took a step back, and then looked down dejectedly. "I know Snake Beastmen aren't popular."
"No one has ever liked me, from childhood to adulthood. That's why I was afraid to reveal that I'm a Snake Beastman to you."
"I was scared you wouldn't like me. I was afraid you... would hate me."
