Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 401: Beauty From Back, Ugly From Front

The Golden Crow Crown Prince had watched as his own lower body was crushed into a bloody paste. A psychological scar had already formed. Many times, he jolted awake as soon as he closed his eyes.

He had even begun to wonder if he had lost ’that’ ability, so he needed to quickly prove himself. Normal palace maids couldn’t get him excited, but the incredibly beautiful Medusa Queen was a different story. She would undoubtedly be able to restore his powerful masculinity.

When he saw the Golden Crow Crown Prince’s excited expression, Elder Bastion felt a bit troubled. He said, "Crown prince, I was unable to bring the Medusa Queen back."

"What?" the Golden Crow Crown Prince exclaimed, his expression turning sinister. He was just about to act out when he remembered Elder Bastion’s grandmaster status, so he could only swallow the curses back down. Instead, he asked, "What happened?"

Elder Bastion thus told him about what had happened just then in the Snake race’s residence. The Golden Crow Crown Prince was shocked, asking, "The Peacock King race, Elf race, and even the ocean races, as well as the Demon Race all spoke up for her?"

"That is right," Elder Bastion said with a grim smile. That was something he couldn’t figure out at all either.

"That slut actually has relations with so many people? Was it purely because of her beauty?" the Golden Crow Crown Prince wondered. Because of what had happened in the Snake race territory, he hated the Medusa Queen.

"These great clans have already expressed that they are going to protect her, and there are many smaller clans that have good relationships with her. Doing something to her has really become quite difficult," Elder Bastion said with a frown. "I fear we will be unable to force out that assassin under her."

"That might not be so," the Golden Crow Crown Prince said with a sneer. "The All Races General Assembly will be held in three days. At that time, every single race will send their people to fill those representative seats.

The Snake race used to be a great clan, and with her return, the Medusa Queen will not be content with just a single seat. She will definitely send powerful cultivators to participate.

We can just use the stage to find a way to cripple her powerful cultivators. The more miserable, the better. This crown prince refuses to believe that the person under her will not act."

"That is a feasible plan, but would it not be a bit too overt? It might affect your distinguished self’s reputation," Elder Bastion reminded him out of concern. If forcing out the assassin led to the various races’ dissatisfaction, the losses wouldn’t make up for the gains.

"Who said this crown prince would do it myself? According to the intelligence, the Lion race has a grudge with the Snake race too, right? We can just rig the system a bit and have them fight over the same seat. That should do the trick, right?" the Golden Crow Crown Prince said with a sneer.

He had heard that the Lion race’s little prince Lucas had been seriously injured from a conflict with the Snake race, and still hadn’t woken up. Lucas was a rising star publicly acknowledged by the Lion race, and he was doted on greatly by his brothers and parents.

Now that something had happened to him, the Lion race was furious. Given the opportunity, why would they show the Snake race any mercy?

"What a wonderful plan!" Elder Bastion’s eyes lit up. He had been worried that the crown prince would be embroiled in rage after his defeat in the Snake race, and perhaps even infatuated with lust, thus completely losing the wise and heroic nature needed to become the future emperor.

Now, he completely felt at ease. This young man was still the same crown prince he remembered deep down.

Afterward, the Golden Crow Crown Prince gathered some people and arranged various things. That naturally wasn’t something he had to trouble Elder Bastion with. He could stay in the palace to help him recover faster.

Meanwhile, in the Snake race’s residence, Diana sought out Sharky and said, "Get up. Let’s take a look around the Fiend King Court. After being cooped up inside these past few days, I’ve been feeling really stuffy."

She had wanted to go for a stroll the previous day, but Sharky had disappeared, and then the Fiend Emperor had released his powerful presence.

Worried that Sharky was the assassin in the palace, she hadn’t gotten any rest the entire night. She hadn’t been in the mood to look around the city at all. Of course, there was no way she would talk about any of that out loud.

Charlotte couldn’t help but frown slightly, saying, "He has gone through quite a lot all night. Let him rest for a bit."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you’re sounding like a young maiden who’s just joined the Sharky household or something. Stone cold woman, are you feeling alright?" Diana replied, reaching out toward Charlotte’s forehead while speaking, as if she didn’t recognize her.

Charlotte’s face heated up. She was worried that Diana might notice something and quickly explained, "Do you think I am like you who makes decisions without thinking about others? Firstly, he is too tired, and secondly, his arrest has already been ordered. It is really not too good for him to be moving around right now."

Both were again going to fight each other, but then Sharky stood up and said, "You both should shut up. And there is no harm in familiarizing ourselves with the Fiend King Court. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle. Furthermore, we can take the chance to look for that place recorded on the map."

The women were stunned. Only then did they realize that he was talking about the map of the Unknown Region. With that, none of them voiced any more objections.

When they left, Charlotte and Diana remembered their experience by the city gates. The masks could hide their appearance, but they would easily make others curious.

That was especially true with their incredible physiques and presence; they were clearly incredible beauties.

They were in the Fiend King Court, where there were many powerful cultivators. Even though they weren’t scared, they didn’t want to make things complicated for no reason and provoke unnecessary trouble.

Furthermore, they were going to help Alina fight for the three seats in three days. They were going to show themselves in front of everyone then. They couldn’t just keep masks and cloaks on forever, right?

Using their original appearance obviously wouldn’t be a good idea. In the human world, the two women were famous grandmasters. Some people from the fiend races would undoubtedly recognize them too. If they were recognized, in their current state, they could end up dying without even knowing how.

As such, they each asked for a face mask from Sharky, turning themselves into ordinary-looking women to get used to the sensation.

When they looked into the mirror, they could only describe their new look as extremely plain, but they didn’t mind it at all. With their temperament, they had long since stopped caring about how they looked.

Sharky sighed in amazement, thinking that if these two were to enter his world as they were right now, they would definitely be mocked as women who looked stunning from behind but had unattractive faces. They were goddesses from the back, but their faces...

As for Alina, she was a well-known person. Furthermore, with her identity as the Snake race’s clan leader, she naturally didn’t need a mask. Just a face veil was enough.

Then, the group walked through the city. Despite the assassin attack the previous night in the imperial palace, the various races’ representatives were all gathered at the Fiend King Court. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

There was no way the royal family would hold a lockdown with so many influential figures present. That was why, after the entire city had been searched, it had been opened up again.

Even though the Fiend King Court wasn’t as bustling as the human capital city, it was still up there.

It was a place where all kinds of different races’ talents gathered, each with their own specialties. When all those specialties came together, it made for quite the exciting place.

Along the way, many fiend disciples blew catcalls when they saw the women’s figures. The fiend races were much more direct than others.

When they saw what they liked, they were always very proactive. However, when they saw Charlotte and Diana’s faces, they immediately felt their appetites being ruined, quickly running away.

As for Alina, because she was Charlotte and Diana’s companion, they all figured that she probably wasn’t much better. They weren’t even interested in undoing her veil.

Sharky couldn’t help but chuckle, remarking, "I didn’t expect even you two to be avoided for being ugly."

"It is actually quite interesting," Charlotte said. She was used to being flattered wherever she went. She found the experience quite new and novel.

"I didn’t expect being ugly to have its uses," Diana said. Despite that, she was still upset. "Hmph, if this were the human world, I would have already gouged out their eyes, chopped off their limbs, then had them used as fertilizer."

Alina clicked her tongue. The Devil Sect Master really was fierce, as expected. However, their group had gotten along quite well as of late.

The women weren’t preoccupied with that for long. Their attention was soon drawn by their strange and bizarre surroundings.

Diana was excited. Even though there were quite a few imported goods from the fiend races in the human world, to the point that there were all kinds of specialty shops opened by the fiend races, compared to the real deal, they weren’t nearly as authentic.

In contrast to Diana’s excitement, Charlotte’s interest was quite lacking. She usually liked peace and quiet, so not only did she not find the bustling surroundings that interesting, she even felt that the place really wasn’t for her.

Instead, she unwittingly glanced more at Sharky. She was a bit confused. Why was it that she had felt so happy and carefree when she was strolling through Cloudcenter City with him, and yet today, she felt really annoyed? Was it because there were others there too?

"Is there something on my face?" a playful voice called out. Charlotte jumped in fright. Only then did she notice that Sharky was looking at her with a smile, walking right next to her.

Diana was distracted by all of the new sights, and Alina was also busy. Only Charlotte was walking with him.

"Who is looking at you?" Charlotte replied, looking away quickly.

But then he held her chin and said, "Why are you telling lies, you weren’t supposed to lie."

"You," Charlotte was speechless. This guy really was annoying! So you knew I was a nun, and yet you still did that kind of thing to me?

Alina seemed to have sensed something. She turned around and asked, "Sharky, what are you two talking about?"

"Just some love talk," Sharky replied. Hearing it, Charlotte became more embarrassed.

While Daina and Alina started laughing.

The group wandered around the Fiend King Court while secretly studying the place’s topography, comparing it to the Unknown Region map.

Eventually, they moved farther and farther away, arriving at a forest to the north. It wasn’t a wild, desolate area; rather, it was still inside the Fiend King Court’s city borders. They could vaguely make out buildings and lights scattered around.

"It seems to be around here," Sharky said, comparing the surroundings to the map. They followed a limestone path up a nearby mountain.

Suddenly, a fierce shout came from up ahead. "Halt! Up ahead is the imperial tomb! All those who trespass are to be executed without exception!"
