A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 277

The entire room was silent, except for Yara, who calmly puffed on her cigarette.

She hadn't expected Calliope to be that impressive, but considering Silas vouched for her, it wasn't all that surprising.

The rest of the crocodiles, though initially stunned, were starting to get restless again.

One particularly daring alligator took a cautious step forward. In an instant, Calliope had its head pinned under her foot. The alligator tried to open its mouth, but all it managed was a pathetic creaking sound as Calliope's foot kept it firmly shut. Its little legs flailed desperately, but eventually, it gave up the fight, completely exhausted.

Calliope lifted her foot, gazing down with feigned innocence. "Oops, did I step on you? Does it hurt?" she asked as if genuinely concerned about the alligator's well-being.

Terrified, the alligator rolled its eyes up at Calliope before awkwardly retreating back to the pit, its gaze never leaving her. Once submerged, it dived deep and disappeared from view.

Witnessing this, the other alligators seemed to have a silent conference, exchanging glances before coming to a new consensus.

"Wow, did you see that alligator? Scared stiff!" someone exclaimed.

"Seriously? Is it even possible for someone to be that strong to pin down an alligator?"

"What kind of woman is Calliope? Her strength is scary!"

"Mind-blowing, ladies!"

"Suddenly, I don't think alligators are all that terrifying anymore. Am I imagining things?"

"If you can be as tough as her, then yeah, maybe the alligators should be afraid of you instead."

"Calliope is terrifying."
