Cannon Fodder To Villainess

🏮48. Sly Vision

While laying down on the little bed with her eyes closed, Amber rubbed her pinky finger, which the little snake had bitten. It felt warm, like warm water was being poured over it. After a minute of rubbing her finger, she was filled with surprise when her vision suddenly slipped into the point of view of slithering incredibly low across the ground. Everything around her appeared to be overly huge and she was flying by it at incredible speeds.

She pulled her hand away from her finger and her vision was restored to the room where she was laying down. She looked at her hand, and there wrapped around her pinky finger, was a little silver snake ring. She touched rubbing it once more and was instantly brought back to the little snake's vision.

Sly was zipping through the halls of the First Prince's estate, speeding along the wall past many maids, unnoticed. Everything in the estate was light blue and white with a gaudy amount of gold accentuating everything. Amber had never been to his estate before, but recalled the 'uniforms' described in 'Duchess Dash' as quite revealing and provocative.

All of the maids that Sly passed were wearing short black dresses with ruffled light light blue aprons, barely long enough to cover their butts that poofed out due to many layers of light blue lace. They had low cut necklines that displayed a generous amount of cleavage. Every one of his maids was cute, wearing their hair in pigtails with glossy pink lips. They wore platform sandals and walked around delicately, cleaning as they went.

A deep part within Amber ached at seeing all of those scantily dressed women in the First Prince's estate and she frowned. She didn't desire the First Prince in the least, he was too full of germs for her taste. What's the point in having a man who could easily give her a disease and almost any random attractive woman could have?

Amber would never desire a publicly available man.

Jenna was truly deluding herself if she believed for a moment that she could keep him to herself. His harem alone would probably grow to monstrous proportions some day. Nevertheless, Amber felt a strange foreign ache within her. She frowned, but pushed the feeling aside as she saw Sly easily slip past armed guards, who were walking around the First Prince's manor, undetected.

Amber chuckled, thinking about the fun that was soon to come.

Finally Sly reached a secluded room at the end of a side hallway, in which there was one guard stationed at the door. He easily slipped into the crack under the door without alerting the guard who was sitting down in a chair with a bored look on his face.

Amber watched as Sly entered a lavish room covered in light purple and gold. There was a plush seating area in the front room. Past the first room, was a second room that held a white table set large enough to seat six people. There was a chandelier above the table made from spirit beast stones. Along the right wall, was a side table covered in golden trays full of snacks.

Past that room, was another room that held an enormous plush canopy bed with numerous light purple pillows, high quality comforters, and silk curtains.

Sly continued slithering towards a side door connected to the bedroom. That door led to a large walk-in closet where beautiful dresses, shoes, and jewelry were displayed. Further into that room was the door to a bathroom. In the bathroom, there was a large luminescent pearl embedded into the ceiling. Water was sprinkling down from the ceiling using a magic tool above a pool sized, in-ground, round tub. There were light pink bubbles over the surface of the water.

Sitting shoulder deep in the water, was Jenna leaning back cradled comfortably in a seat within the pool. Next to her, were bottles of bathing oils and a tray full of berries. Every once in a while, she chuckled in-between eating berries with a satisfied look on her face.

'What a good prison. Very good, I will see who laughs last. This cheap garbage couple,' Amber thought.

As Sly slipped into the corner of the tub, the bottom of Jenna's feet came into view. Luckily, below the surface of the water was murky, and so Amber could only see her feet. Amber watched as Sly's fangs pierced Jenna's left heel and then he quickly licked the puncture marks. Jenna screeched and pulled her foot back to have a look at it while Sly quickly slithered away. The speed at which he was moving was dizzying. Amber pulled herself out of Sly's point of view and sat up from the bed feeling somewhat motion sick. She gathered her things and headed back home, slipping out along the servants route.

Outside the gate, Fluffy was waiting for Amber, disguised as a normal cloud. As soon as he saw her, he came down with Ena, who was taking a nap on its back. Fluffy wiggled, jostling Ena, who yawned loudly, while rubbing her eyes. As soon as Ena saw Amber, her eyes widened and she flew to land on Amber's shoulder. Her little arms wrapped along the side of Amber's neck in a hug. Amber absent-mindedly reached up with her other hand and petted the top of Ena's head. She felt the little odd sensation of being cloaked once again in shadow as Fluffy floated down next to Amber's feet. She stepped up onto Fluffy and sat down, comfortably seated on the cloud.

[What happened, Master? You're back early and your hair is shockingly long,] said Ena.

"Much, we'll discuss our next moves when we get home. For now, I wanted to let you know that you all have a new companion. A little magic snake that I've named Sly. I've sent him to poison Jenna and he's currently on his way back. I will tell you more about him later, but know that he's a bit different from the rest of you."

[I've never liked that impertinent maid of yours!] Ena shook her head in approval.

Ena bounced on Amber's shoulder excitedly. [In what way did you poison her?]

"Pfft! Look at you! I believe that I've become a bad influence on you," said Amber.

Ena flicked some of her hair back that had flown into her eyes and had a large grin on her face. [Or a good one,] she said.
