Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Cheng Xiao, carrying Apas, used the Space-Time Divine Eye to pass through layers of space and stopped when they reached the fifth layer.

"That's my older sister, Trisina."

Apas pointed to a woman whose hair was covered in venomous snakes.

Her body was not that of a snake, but rather that of a scorpion, which was pomegranate red in color.

Those sharp, long scorpion legs actually resembled the long legs of a woman wearing high heels.

The scorpion tail behind him kept spinning in the air, as if it had a life of its own.

Apas's tone was filled with anger and murderous intent, revealing her deep hatred for her two older sisters.

"Where is your second sister?" Cheng Xiao asked.

"She's probably not here. Euryale has the Eye of Deception, which allows her to perfectly disguise herself. With that ability, she always likes to wander off and rarely comes home," Apas said.

The second sister has Euryale's bloodline and most of the Harpy Queen's bloodline. The Harpy Queen's most powerful ability is the Deceptive Eye!

Having the Eye of Deception allows one to perfectly mimic a person, from their voice and appearance to even their breath!

In the original story, even the Golden Dragon Eye of the Holy City's Light Dragon could not see through Euryale's Deceptive Eye.

However, the harpies are actually much weaker in combat compared to other demons of the same bloodline.

Their innate abilities are more geared towards support roles, which means their combat power won't be particularly outstanding.

However, it is an extremely useful skill for purposes such as disguise or infiltration.

Therefore, not only Euryale, but most harpies blend in and hide among other races.

"Your second sister is quite pragmatic; she directly sided with your eldest sister," Cheng Xiao remarked.

"She's trash, no threat at all. Trisina certainly doesn't care if Euryale affects her future status," Apas said.

"I am different. I have the bloodline closest to my mother and the Medusa Eye, which is the strongest under my mother."

"If it weren't for my mother's protection in the past, they would have gouged out my eyes and drunk my blood dry."

When she said those words, her anger was mixed with a hint of grievance.

After being hunted by her two older sisters for so many years, she had considered giving up the fight, submitting to them, and ending her escape.

Unfortunately, this is unrealistic. Her Medusa Eyes and the noblest human Medusa bloodline destined Trisina and Euryale to never let her go.

Cheng Xiao saw through her thoughts, and stroked her hair with a smile:

"I'll protect you from now on."

For some reason, Apas felt an unexpected warmth welling up inside him when he heard these words.

Since the deaths of her queen mother and human mother, no one has ever uttered the words "protect her".

Even though Cheng Xiao was enslaving her, she still developed such feelings for the person who enslaved her.

Apas curled his lip, disdainful of Cheng Xiao's words, which was also a mockery of his own "baseness".

How desperate for love must she be to treat Cheng Xiao, this human who forcibly enslaved her, with such affection?

"Let's go, I'll avenge you," Cheng Xiao said.

Apas was obediently held by Cheng Xiao as he appeared from the void.

The moment the two appeared, this space was instantly enveloped by a layer of silver spatial barrier.

The Eye of Time and Space possesses the power of supreme dimensional mysteries, silently unfolding a barrier that even the Mother of Medusa could not detect.

Of course, even though the now severely injured Mother Medusa has noticed this, she cannot break the barrier.

Trisina, trapped within the barrier, felt as if she were isolated from the world. She said in a deep voice:

"Who is it? Show yourself!"

Her voice echoed through the space, and eerie smoke rose from not far away.

A delicate and beautiful figure appeared in the smoke.

A serpentine shadow clung to her, making her resemble a female serpent goddess from ancient mythology!

She is stunningly beautiful, yet possesses an air of nobility and dignity that makes her untouchable!

"Apas?!" Trisina recognized it at a glance; it was her sister's complete form. She laughed excitedly.

"I didn't go looking for you, but you came to me of your own accord! My dear sister, you really know how to surprise your older sister!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a white-gold sword pierced her chest!

The sword moved with incredible speed, so fast that even Trisina, an invincible monarch-level being, couldn't see it and dodge it.

"What is this?!" Trisina looked down at her chest, her pupils widening.

A platinum longsword pierced her chest; her blood flowed onto the blade, but could not truly stain it.

The platinum longsword is protected by a faint layer of energy, from which powerful magical energy is constantly overflowing, robbing Trisina of her life force!

Not only her monarchical body, but even her soul could not escape the burning effect of this energy.

In an instant, Trisina's life force plummeted, becoming extremely weak!

As her life drew to a close, the platinum longsword regained its senses and flew back on its own.

Apas couldn't wait to charge at Trisina.

The serpent god's shadow behind her bit Trisina's neck, forcing Trisina's wide-open pupils to meet Apas's golden, powdery eyes.

"Sister, I've delivered myself to your doorstep, but you're too dead to receive me," Apas said with a mocking expression.

Trisina was completely incredulous. She looked in the direction the platinum longsword had flown, as if she understood something.

"You, you actually colluded with forbidden human spells! Apas, this should have been a struggle between our Medusa royal family, yet you willingly became a human's bitch. You are unworthy of being Medusa!"

Apas was completely unfazed by Trisina's insults:

"Didn't you and Euryale also become Khufu's dogs? We're in the same boat. Besides, it's my honor to be my master's pet snake."

After saying that, Apas looked at Cheng Xiao and said obsequiously:

"Master, I don't want to kill her yet. I want to repay her a thousandfold for the harm I suffered."

"Whatever you like." Cheng Xiao looked towards the spatial layer behind him and asked:

"What's the purpose of this completely empty sixth level?"

"Do you remember what I told you about the dimensional rifts between Mother's Evil Temple and the Evil Temple of the Serpent Ancestor? The sixth level of space was prepared for the Serpent Ancestor, the Serpent King Bemang!" Apas explained.

Trisina looked resentful at Apas's fawning behavior.

"Apas, you are despicable and shameless! You, who have been reduced to a human bitch, do not deserve it."

"Shut up! I'm talking to my master, what right do you have to interrupt!"

Apas immediately used Medusa's Eye, putting Trissina into a deep sleep.

She couldn't bear to kill Trisina now; she wanted to torture Trisina to the point of wishing she were dead.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to resolve the hatred she has harbored for so many years of being hunted down.

Cheng Xiao, unconcerned about the sisters' rivalry, continued to ask:

"The seventh floor?"

"That is where Mother resides!"

"."

Cheng Xiao seemed to be deep in thought, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips:

"Now that Trisina is on her deathbed, seize the opportunity to take power. I'll go and shield you from the trouble that follows!" (End of Chapter)
