"You still remember that you owe me a favor, right?" The Second Empress asked.
"Of course, I'll work like an ox to repay the empress' favor," Sharky replied, looking at her with a smile. While he started removing her garments also.
"Work like an ox?" the Second Empress replied, blushing.
"Of course," Sharky confirm her thoughts.
"But there is something else also, I need your help with."
"What is it?" Sharky asked. He didn't dare to show any carelessness. If the task was something even she couldn't take care of, it definitely wouldn't be easy.
The Second Empress lifted a corner of the curtain and looked in the direction of the altar.
"The succession ceremony is going to start tomorrow. The crown prince will become the new Fiend Emperor then. I heard about what happened in the arena today."
"The crown prince and the Snake race clearly do not get along with each other. If he becomes the Fiend Emperor, we both will not have a good end."
