As such, the instant the Gorgon released the snarling and hissing red snakes at her, she spewed out another river of fire. The damp, foggy environment was lit up in red-gold flame, as the painful shrieks of the snakes reverberated in the cell.

Within less than five breaths of time, the wriggling swarm were reduced to crisp lumps of snake meat, their burnt stench, sickening and stomach turning.

”No...no...no. Impossible! How is this possible? How can you easily burn my immortal snakes?” The Gorgon stood trembling as she stammered, her hideous gray face, turning an even uglier shade of grey.

”Hmph! There is no such thing as impossible in this realm. Just never done before. Now, prepare to obediently accept your fates or else.” Nonchalantly shrugging her shoulders, Versailles smirked.

”Or else, I will make your lair, your nightmare!”

Shivering, the Gorgon fearfully stepped back, an ominous feeling settling into her heart.

”You...you....what do...what do you...want to...do?” She was scared out of her wits, screeching in fear as she moved even further back, trying to place as much distance between them as she could.

She could sense the serpentine was about to do something terrible to them. So terrible that they might never be the same again.

Before today, she would have never believed that a serpentine in the Nar realm could challenge all three of them at once. Not only was she able to defeat them. She did it so effortlessly, as if she was playing with pets, rather than dealing with a dangerous specie.

'In her eyes, maybe we are no more than pets.' She thought dejectedly as she recalled the arrogant and haughty appearance of the serpentine when she first showed herself.

There was neither fear nor apprehension as she faced the three Gorgons sisters.

Right from the beginning, it was them who had overestimated themselves, leading to the current situation.

Her coming prepared was within their expectations. After all, every race in the Nar realm was aware of what the Poison Fields represented. Her coming alone, only meant she had full confidence in her preparations.

However, they never expected the nightmare that appeared before them to be so overwhelming!

”What I want to do is none of your business. What you should be concerned about, however, is how you are going to please me, going forward.” A dark smile on her face, Versailles held the red-green python eyes she specifically hunted down, in her right hand.

Swinging her left arm, three blurs of red-gold light flew out, cutting respectively on the three Gorgons wrists. Raising her right hand, red-green radiance filled the damp cell, flowing through the path of the red-gold light. It flashed onto the cut wrists of the Gorgons.

Instantly, howls of pain and cries of agony, filled the cell. Red-gold-green lights flashed in and out. At times brightening, at others dimming. The heart-rending scream continued for half an ice night, before slowly weakening.

Half an hour later, the painful shrieks stopped.

Versailles was covered in sweat, her violet-gold eyes rimed with red as she tremblingly lowered her right hand. Her serpentine figure weakly swayed back and forth, the strength in its powerful form, completely sapped.

”Huff, huff, huff.”

Breathing laboriously, she protectively curled her golden tail around her body. Sweeping her violet eyes around the damp cell one last time, she could no longer keep them open and fell into a deep slumber.

”Ahhh!” Waking with a scream, Versailles abruptly swept her gaze around her surrounding.

What entered her eyes, was damp stone walls and poisonous miasma. A light flashed in her mind, and she remembered where she was.

”The Ancient Fortress of the Poison Fields. Oh, yes. My great deed! Was it successful?”

Unfolding her golden coil, Versailles transformed into her human form and raised her hands. A bright red-gold flame appeared, lightening the place as bright as day.

Sweeping her vision over the areas where the three Gorgon's last were, her eyes instantly brightened with joy, as her cherry lips stretched into a wide smile.

”Yes, it worked!”
