I've Already Become a Demon God, and You Want Me to Be a Villain?

At the same time, they felt a faint sense of unease.

"Hey, Li Fei, if the Queen and the Count of Inkstone Territory are close, aren't we in danger here?"

One protagonist asked the other.

"Don't worry. No matter how close they are, how close can they really be? Besides, the Queen of the Crescent Kingdom isn't stupid. The Count of Inkstone Territory's exploitation is so obvious. Once she realizes it afterward, she'll definitely hold it against him."

The other protagonist reassured him.

"That's true. The Count of Inkstone Territory can't interfere in palace affairs anyway. Let's not go out for the next few days and give him an opportunity."

The first protagonist said.

Although the two protagonists were somewhat uneasy, they still decided to remain in the palace.

They would rely on their Golden Fingers to grow stronger first.

"Stand properly. Her Majesty's carriage will arrive shortly."

At that moment, a Guard Captain's voice rang out.

The two protagonists quickly straightened up and stopped talking.

Soon, the Queen of the Crescent Kingdom's carriage slowly entered through the palace gates.

After her carriage entered, another carriage followed close behind.

Once inside, the Queen of the Crescent Kingdom's carriage came to a stop.

"Cathy."

The Queen of the Crescent Kingdom's calm voice sounded.

"Your Majesty, your orders?"

Cathy asked.

"Send an additional squad of guards. They will be responsible for the Count of Inkstone Territory's safety tonight."

The Queen of the Crescent Kingdom said.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cathy accepted the order.

"Captain Yimo, bring your men and follow me."

Cathy quickly made the arrangements.

The two protagonists happened to be among the squad of guards she had summoned.

At this point, the two protagonists still had no idea what their assignment was.

The two carriages proceeded down the palace avenue.

Several squads of guards followed behind them.

At last, they arrived before a Palace.

"My lord, we've arrived."

Female Official Aria said.

After entering the palace, Su Mo had brought only a few people with him, and Female Official Aria was among them.

Aria lifted the carriage curtain for Su Mo.

Su Mo stepped down from the carriage.

The Queen of the Crescent Kingdom likewise stepped down from hers.

"You'll stay here for the next few days. This is a Token. You may enter and leave the palace freely."

She handed a Token to Su Mo.

Su Mo accepted it.

"I'll be going back now. If there is any news, I'll send someone to inform you."

The Queen of the Crescent Kingdom gave Su Mo a sweet smile before getting back into her carriage.

She still had quite a few matters to handle.

"What's going on? Why is he in the palace?"

The moment one of the protagonists saw Su Mo, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

The two exchanged a glance.

"Don't worry too much. Isn't it normal for nobles to enter the palace to pay respects to the king?"

The two quietly began chatting through the Protagonist Panel.

By then, the Queen of the Crescent Kingdom's carriage had already left.

However, their squad of guards did not leave with it.

The two protagonists were puzzled.

Then they saw Su Mo cast a faint glance in their direction.

"He noticed us."

"So what if he did? Does he really dare make a move against us in public?"

"Learn from the lesson. Don't provoke him."

The two protagonists were not overly worried.

But neither did they use their gazes or expressions to provoke Su Mo like that protagonist from Holy See Headquarters had.

Sure enough, Su Mo withdrew his gaze.

Then Su Mo walked toward the Palace and soon disappeared inside it.

The two protagonists breathed a sigh of relief.

"Stay alert. Count of Inkstone Territory is the Queen's guest. If anything goes wrong, none of us will have an easy time," the captain of the guard shouted after Su Mo entered the Palace.

"What? He's staying here?"

The two protagonists were immediately shocked.

"Captain Yimo, are we... are we supposed to keep guarding this place?"

The two protagonists found the captain of the guard and asked.

"Of course. We are responsible for Count of Inkstone Territory's safety. Whatever orders Count of Inkstone Territory gives, we must carry them out immediately. Understand?"

Captain Yimo said sternly.

"Understood, Captain."

The two protagonists could not help exchanging looks.

They had never expected Su Mo, a Villain, to move into the royal palace.

It had long been a rule that the royal palace did not accommodate guests.

Yet now, Su Mo had become an exception.

Although this was only the Outer Palace, it still proved that Su Mo's relationship with Queen of the Crescent Kingdom was far from ordinary.

That alone would have been one thing.

But the two of them, still weak protagonists... had actually been assigned to guard Su Mo's safety!

Damn it...

Life was truly unpredictable. The intestines wrapped around the large intestine!

It was like sending two little lambs before a wolf, then making those two sheep responsible for protecting the wolf...

"What do we do? He'll most likely take this chance to make a move and kill us."

One protagonist panicked.

The other protagonist had remained calm before, but now he panicked as well.

Divine Talent! Demon God's Letter!

"Talent..."

Inside one of the Palace's rooms, Su Mo looked at the unconscious protagonist and murmured.

After entering the Palace, Su Mo had set up a small Magic Array in his room using a Demon Disc he carried with him.

The Magic Array did not cover much ground, limited only to Su Mo's room.

However, its level was extremely high, having already reached Forbidden Spell level.

As for Magic Arrays of an even higher level, it would be difficult to set them up in a short time using only the Demon Disc.

Especially when Su Mo could not use his Demon God's Power.
