Chapter 84 Snake Princess's Palace
With the sound of "lai lai lai," three figures, brimming with confidence, flew across the sky above the winding snake path.
"Hahaha..."
"Cyrus, Goku, come chase me!"
"Chi-Chi, wait for us!"
Amidst their laughter and cheers, Chi-Chi, full of pride, flew ahead, with Goku quickly trying to catch up.
Watching the two girls ahead, playing and racing, Cyrus couldn't help but laugh and shake his head before picking up his pace to join them.
It must be said that Chi-Chi's talent was impressive. Under the guidance of Cyrus and Goku, she had mastered her strength in just a few days. She had already become skilled with [Goku Jutsu] and could even launch the [Kamehameha Wave].
In the original Dragon Ball, after Chi-Chi married Son Goku, she stopped pursuing martial arts and shifted to supporting her family. As time passed, she gave up her warrior spirit and became a housewife, with her appearance slowly aging. This was, without a doubt, one of the series' regrets.
However, this time, Cyrus had no intention of letting Chi-Chi follow that same path.
With such remarkable talent, Cyrus was determined to train Chi-Chi as carefully as he had trained Goku, ensuring she would become a powerful ally in the future.
Not that Chi-Chi would necessarily become a warrior who dominates the universe, but dominating a small planet like Earth was well within her reach!
With Chi-Chi's combat power exceeding 500 points, she was more than capable of ruling the current Earth and claiming the title of "strongest Earthling."
As for Krillin, still following Master Roshi with his idle training—well, it seemed he would never have a shot at that honor or throne again.
"Cyrus, Goku, look ahead! There's a palace!"
Suddenly, Chi-Chi, flying in front, stopped and called out to Cyrus and Goku.
"There really is a palace!"
Goku, surprised, also noticed the palace and couldn't hide his amazement.
After flying for several days with nothing but the winding snake path and an endless sea of clouds beneath them, seeing a palace appear out of nowhere was truly unexpected and eye-catching.
Cyrus, however, was much more composed. His eyes narrowed, and a barely perceptible smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
If Cyrus remembered correctly, that palace should belong to Princess Snake.
Legend had it that the ruler of the Snake Path was not only the goddess of the path but also the most beautiful woman in the underworld...
"Goku, Chi-Chi, let's stop there and rest."
"Okay, okay!"
After a moment of thought, Cyrus made a decision, and Goku and Chi-Chi responded eagerly.
Though not particularly tired, even Cyrus found the continuous days of flight somewhat monotonous. A place to rest would be a welcome change.
Of course, Cyrus would never admit that he was also curious about the Snake Princess!
Not long after, the trio landed before the palace. Goku and Chi-Chi were about to run and knock on the door when, to their surprise, the palace before them suddenly morphed into a giant snake's head. The snake opened its enormous mouth and, with a swift motion, sucked them all in.
"Ahhhhhh..."
After tumbling through what seemed like a long and winding passage, the three of them finally landed in a grand hall.
Cyrus managed to flip through the air and landed gracefully on his feet. He then caught Goku and Chi-Chi, who were still falling with screams, and gently set them down.
"Hahaha... this is fun!" Goku laughed, thrilled by the unexpected turn of events. Meanwhile, Chi-Chi, still disoriented, shook her head and looked around in confusion.
"Welcome, honored guests," a maid, who had clearly been expecting them, greeted as soon as they landed. With a swift motion, she struck a gong and announced, "Three distinguished guests have arrived! Please, come in and rest."
"Thank you very much," Cyrus replied politely.
Chi-Chi seemed about to ask something, but Cyrus quickly answered with a smile, gently guiding Goku and Chi-Chi into the hall. They all sat down comfortably.
A few more maids entered, bringing an assortment of fruits, cakes, and tea for them. Cyrus thanked them graciously, and the maids bowed with smiles before quietly leaving.
"Woohoo…delicious, delicious!"
"Cyrus, where is this place? Those people are so strange."
Looking at the table piled high with fruits and pastries, Goku, unable to resist, started devouring them. Meanwhile, Chi-Chi, more cautious and thoughtful, tugged at Cyrus's clothes and whispered, "Where are we?"
"Since they've welcomed us, I believe the owner of this place will show themselves soon."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you're safe."
Cyrus gently ruffled Chi-Chi's head, offering her a reassuring smile.
Chi-Chi couldn't help but feel comforted by Cyrus's words. After all, if he said they were safe, she believed him. So, she, like Goku, eagerly grabbed the fruits and pastries on the table, beginning to eat.
Although they weren't particularly hungry after their time in hell, the food here was so delicious that they couldn't resist. And besides, who said you had to be hungry to enjoy something tasty?
While Goku and Chi-Chi continued to eat, Cyrus sipped his tea leisurely, a small smirk playing at the corner of his mouth, his eyes narrowing slightly.
He was waiting for the most beautiful lady in the Yellow Springs Hell—the legendary Snake Princess. He hoped she would live up to the legend.
Inside one of the rooms within the palace, a beautiful woman, with an elegant figure and adorned in luxurious clothing, was savoring the aroma of her own tea.
"Princess Snake, there are three guests outside!"
A maid entered the room, bowed respectfully to the woman, and delivered the message.
"Oh, there are three guests?"
Princess Snake's beautiful eyes sparkled, and with a graceful motion, she set her cup down gently.
It had been hundreds of years since anyone had visited, except for King Yama passing through on occasion. This unexpected visit piqued her curiosity.
"Yes, two little girls and a very handsome man," the maid replied respectfully.
Princess Snake's eyes widened, and she immediately sprang to her feet.
"A handsome... handsome man?!"
In an instant, she forgot all her previous composure and rushed to the window. She peeked outside, and as soon as her gaze fell upon Cyrus, sitting calmly and sipping his tea, she froze.
"Ahh... Ahhh..."
She gasped in disbelief, her heart racing. "What a handsome, perfect man!"
Her eyes filled with pink hearts as she covered her lips, her excitement overwhelming her, leaving her nearly speechless.
The maid beside her smirked, stifling a giggle. "Princess, you're too eager. You even thought that fat uncle King Yama was handsome."
Yet, even the maid had to admit—unlike King Yama's bloated figure, this man was undeniably handsome. She couldn't blame the princess; even she felt a little flutter in her chest.
As the maids quietly teased their princess, Princess Snake, as if struck by Cupid's arrow, finally regained her composure and eagerly said:
"Hurry, hurry up and call everyone in. I want to dress up nicely and then go to entertain that master in person!"
"Yes, Princess."
