Chapter 11: The lovesick consort
Tang Yue grinned from cheek to cheek as she completely finished the small basket full of poisoned fruits.
She had even drunk the tonics like gulps of water.
Her thin invisible stomach now had a tiny little bulge indicating that she was already full.
But it still wasn’t enough.
Tang Yue repeatedly checked her status screen but even after gulping down the entire basket, the poison resistance didn’t budge from Level 6.
Although, this small set back didn’t really deter her from completing the mission.
The snake woman licked her lips and smirked as the wheels of her mind rolled in the shameless direction.
It was time to pay a personal visit to all of the esteemed crown prince’s private concubines!
If by any chance, all the consorts were equally jealous, then she might just be able to finish her quest for the day.
And thus, a shameless little snake happily whistled and adjusted her appearance.
After all, for what she was planning, looking good plays a very important factor.
She really had to tug at their heartstrings and bring out the evil green-eyed jealousy monster, even if it was buried deep within.
Just as the elves are known for having a noble angelic appearance, the snakes are known for having a sensuous lustful appearance.
And Tang Yue was no exception.
Her meridians might have been crippled but she still very much retained her curvy charms.
She casually donned a silky dark green robe that clung to her voluptuous body. The deep dark green complimented her exquisite blue skin.
She then used one swift motion and untied her long bouncing black curls to freely dance in the wind.
Checking her appearance one more time, she called out to her aide Lotte.
“Accompany me. Let’s visit my new sisters.”
Lotte was stupefied. This morning his master looked utterly enchanting.
She was not like the elves who looked elegant and gentle. Her beauty was dark and twisted, capable of turning anyone into her slave!
“Yes, your highness.” Lotte nodded absentmindedly.
“I already met our mesmerizing queen consort. Who is the next in the ranking?”
Lotte was confused. “Ranking?”
“Heh. I don’t want to offend the elder sisters by visiting them in the wrong order.”
Lotte nodded. That was, of course, an important matter to consider.
It would be a huge slap in the face, if her highness by mistake visits the third consort, without visiting the queen consort or the second elder sister.
The duo quickly got down to business.
Tang Yue picked out some flowers that were a snake clan specialty and neatly arranged it as a gift for each woman.
They were after all helping her so much! The least she could do was give this small return gift.
Next to the queen consort, the lady who occupied the highest status in the harem was the precious daughter of the elven General Luis, Isabella.
Just like Charlotte, Isabella had an enthralling demeanor and was very soft-spoken. She invited Tang Yue in with wide open arms and was very friendly.
Her only quirk seemed to be talking about the crown prince Xander at excruciating lengths.
She was completely lovelorn and talked about his highness and his conquests for almost an hour, while Tang Yue fidgeted around restlessly.
She was endlessly singing praises about the otherworldly crown prince, whose single glance can tear down mountains and plow through volcanoes.
“Does that monster not favor any woman in his harem? Why are they all fighting for his attention so desperately?” Tang Yue bit her lips and continued putting on a gentle facade.
She waited for some more time, but this lovesick woman didn’t seem to voluntarily offer anything poisonous. She didn’t seem to hate her at all.
Tang Yue almost wanted to give up on this one and visit the next, when a sudden thought struck her bored brain.
The crown prince so obviously hadn’t paid any amount of attention to any of these poor women.
So, if she lied blatantly about something trivial like him visiting her, wouldn’t this kind and lovelorn woman instantly hate her??
With a glint in her eyes, Tang Yue smiled and waited patiently for the gentle elf to finish her narrative of the crown prince’s outstanding cultivation prowess.
Once she was done, the snake who was silently nodding until now, suddenly let out a coy chuckle.
She acted like a blushing new bride and mumbled incoherently, “Yes, sister. You are absolutely correct.”
“His majesty is so talented! In fact, I am deeply ashamed to admit that I wasn’t even able to breathe in his majesty’s presence.”
“Ha Ha… He had to completely hide his aura just for my comfort. How kind of him… Ha Ha.”
Tang Yue chuckled like a small pampered child.
She then poured some more oil into the fire, “We should indeed work hard on our cultivation so that we don’t inconvenience his highness when he visits.”
And kaboom!
Just like that, the friendly chat suddenly changed its color into something tyrannical and earth-shattering.
That small nudge from Tang Yue seemed to have had a huge effect on the enchanting and kind Isabella. She didn’t even seem to slightly suspect the blatant lie.
The gorgeous grace in her facade instantly disappeared and she shifted in her posture.
As the light in her eyes slowly faded, she slowly stuttered, “You… Did you meet his highness? You actually met his highness?”
