Chapter 45: Perfect Snakeskin Clothes

So he had really caused pain to the female. But he had merely poked softly for a few times. Why did it become so red?

Cortis’s heart ached as he reached out to rub Bai Qingqing’s soft breast. He was about to say something when his hand was slapped off.

“Hooligan beastman!” Bai Qingqing had become thick-skinned after being bullied for so long. She glared at Cortis angrily.

“What’s a hooligan?” Cortis asked, feeling puzzled.

Bai Qingqing then wrapped her hands around her breasts. “You’re the hooligan! Are you still going to make clothes?”

“I’ll make them for you right now.” Cortis smiled. He picked up the snakeskin at the side and gestured to Bai Qingqing’s body. Bai Qingqing also cooperated, putting down her hands.

After the measurements were done, Cortis picked out a part that had a thickness that was fitting to Bai Qingqing’s bust size. He then used his nails to cut off a chunk of tube-shaped leather that was the length of a tube top.

“Try it on.” Cortis put the snakeskin tube top around Bai Qingqing’s neck as he said this.

Bai Qingqing shrunk back her neck. “Just like this?”

“Try it on and see.”

Displeased, Bai Qingqing quickly put on the snakeskin around her chest. It really felt quite comfortable.

Snakeskin had some elasticity. It wrapped tightly around her soft breasts, yet it was not suffocating. It brought out the beautiful curves that could cause men to have nosebleeds at the sight of her.

Its air permeability was also quite good. It was like a layer of skin on her body, and it felt as if she wasn’t wearing anything.

Bai Qingqing also knew that this snakeskin didn’t absorb water. Even if she were to swim in it, it wouldn’t get wet. When she came out from the cave the other day, she had gotten quite a lot of muddy water on her, and it became clean with just a wipe.

The only downside was that Bai Qingqing’s bust size was too big, and this leather wasn’t as elastic as compression stockings. Therefore, there were some ripples on the top and the bottom.

Cortis let go of her and stood up, waving his snake tail as he swam out of the cave, sliding into the water.

Bai Qingqing threw him a glance and then lowered her head to adjust her new tube top. She furrowed her beautiful brows and mumbled, “It’d be good if there were thread and needle to tighten it a little.”

“Splash—”

The sound of splashing water came from outside, and Bai Qingqing immediately looked over. Cortis had come up from the river while holding onto a fish that weighed about 1 to 1.5kg.

“What are you doing?” Bai Qingqing asked, feeling puzzled. Why did he catch a fish? This fish was so small that it would definitely not be satiating for him. And she was full.

Cortis said, “Fishbones can be used to alter clothes.”

It was only at this moment that Cortis suddenly received the legacy for making clothes. Snake beastmen were experts at making clothes for their mates. They were born with the knowledge of using beautiful clothes to get into the females’ good books. Everything came very naturally, and even the shedding of their skin was related to making clothes.

Of course, every snake beastman would only have one perfectly shed snakeskin. It was the most difficult shedding they experienced when entering maturity from their adolescent phase. They would only go through shedding later on after they mated with a female. The shedding would be once a year so that they could make nice clothes for their mate.

Cortis slit the fish’s stomach open, extracting a thin, long, and semi-translucent bone. He then threw the fish that hadn’t died completely back into the water. He cut off a fine thread from the snakeskin with his nail, bent one end of the fishbone, tied on the thread, and then swam towards her.

Bai Qingqing understood what he was trying to do. Before he could get close, she turned and took off the half-completed tube top. “There! You don’t have to come over.”

“The alteration can be done while you have it on. But since you’ve taken it off, then so be it.”

Bai Qingqing was spurting blood in her heart.

Cortis curled up his body and stayed next to Bai Qingqing. He was about to get to work when the tip of his tail suddenly felt itchy, and he couldn’t hold back. He ended up pulling her over as well.

Bai Qingqing was forced to sit next to Cortis, feeling angry about it but not daring to say anything. Thankfully, her back was facing him. This allowed her to barely be able to sit still.
