I Have Become A Demon God. Did You Just Ask Me To Be A Minor Villain? - Chapter 14

Chapter 14: Melina! If you kill a thousand by mistake, don’t let one go!

After requesting Nancy to make the necessary arrangements, Su Mo put away the remaining gold coins. Then, he organised the numerous items that were exchanged from the Krypton gold system.

Su Mo intended to utilise some of these items himself while distributing others amongst his subordinates to enhance the strength of the human faction.

The human faction under his leadership was quite formidable. Even if he concealed his succubus bloodline, his physical quality was still impressive.

Now, it was a powerful sky knight, which was comparable to a curse-level existence, who swung a big sword at Su Mo, but he stood there without flinching and without even a scratch on his skin.

However, he knew that his human side’s physical strength alone was insufficient.

After the attack, Su Mo calmly stowed away his weapon and effortlessly dismantled the magic circle in the hall with a simple gesture of his hand. His whole body had now returned to its normal state.

Then, he left the hall and ascended to the height of the castle. There, he found Melina enjoying a cup of coffee. Seeing Su Mo coming, Melina greeted him with a charming smile.

“Brother Su Mo, have you taken care of everything ?” She asked.

Despite her stunning beauty, Melina appeared to be in her thirties, which was not too old for a magician above the cursed level. High-level magicians tend to have a longer lifespan than most. Although Su Mo looked like he was only in his mid-twenties, his age did not reflect his true experience and strength.

With Melina’s current strength and magical power,  it was not a problem for her to live for hundreds of years. Her aging process would also be much slower compared to regular humans. Although she was the goddess in the minds of countless people in the Holy Moon Magic Academy, but in front of Su Mo, she was still a teenage girl, vulnerable and innocent.

Su Mo replied, “Yes, it’s taken care of deal with.”

After speaking, Su Mo looked at Melina. As their eyes met, Melina blushed with embarrassment. She gently leaned into Su Mo’s arms and listened to the voice of his powerful heartbeat.

A look of satisfaction appeared on Melina’s beautiful face. She cherished these moments with Su Mo the most, as it reminded her of the tragic night when her parents were killed by horse thieves more than ten years ago.

When the horse thief attempted to rape her, Su Mo arrived alone with his sword and killed them all. After that, he held her in his arms like this and promised to be her brother from that day forward, forever protecting her.

“Brother Su Mo, I am currently serving as the vice president of the Holy Moon Magic Academy. Soon, I will achieve the status of a  legendary mage. When that happens, I want to continue by your side in the future, ” Melina spoke in a soft tone.

Su Mo gently stroked Melina’s hair and said, “Melina, things have changed. I still need you at the Holy Moon Magic Academy. If it’s possible, will you consider joining the Magic Council of the Gods Continent? Can you do that?”

“The House of Magic…Brother Su Mo, I can do it!” Melina replied without hesitation. Although she longed to be with Su Mo every day, she understood the urgency of his request and was willing to fulfil it.

“Brother Su Mo, since I can’t be with you all the time, let me offer myself to you tonight… willingly, “Melina’s voice trailed off.

…………

That night, time seemed to pass slowly.

Time, an uncharted realm that even Demon Gods like Su Mo hadn’t fully grasped, had a peculiar effect on humans and gods. At times, it could make seconds feel like hours, and at other times, it could make hours feel like seconds. This particular night, time dragged on painfully slow.

The next morning, time passed too quickly.

They were on the highest floor of the castle, in their warm and cozy bedroom that felt like a haven. Melina, who had only fallen asleep at dawn, was now sound asleep with a blissful smile on her face. Su Mo held her close and wrapped his arms around her gently.

Initially, Su Mo had treated Melina as his younger sister, but that changed after he returned from the abyss. Unknowingly, he had exuded an aura that was exclusive to succubi, and it had sparked something within Melina that couldn’t be ignored.

At that time, Su Mo was not yet a Demon God, but his strength was nothing compared to what it was now.

Unfortunately, their intimate moment was interrupted when several temple knights discovered them. Melina didn’t hesitate to use her power to shield Su Mo from the divine light that rained down from the sky.

In the ensuing battle,  Melina and Su Mo defeated the powerful Temple Knights, but not without sustaining injuries. Su Mo was hurt badly, and Melina took him and fled to the safety of the Holy Moon Magic Academy. The people from Holy See searched high and low for them, but they couldn’t find them.

How could they possibly think that Su Mo was right under their noses?

It was also in the Holy Moon Magic Academy that Melina gave herself to Su Mo.

Until now, every once in a while, Melina would sneak over here.

While at the Holy Moon Magic Academy, she was the goddess in the minds of countless people, but here with Su Mo, she became a little bird and was obedient to him.

She didn’t wake up until noon.

“Hey, Brother Su Mo,” she said, her face turning red upon seeing him.

Seeing her expression, Su Mo couldn’t help but feel a bit …

Over an hour later, he gave her some items he had exchanged from the Krypton gold system. Although these things would not improve his power, they should help her break through the legend faster.

“I’m leaving now, Brother Su Mo,” Melina said with a hint of reluctance.

She couldn’t stay with Su Mo for too long for fear of others discovering their relationship.

After Su Mo hugged her, Melina reluctantly boarded the boat and departed from there.

…….

“Master, I have found many suspicious things, but it will take some time to confirm,” Nancy reported after Melina left.

“Nancy, there’s no need to confirm. Take it down if it’s suspicious and the other party’s identity is not high. Bring it here, and we’ll talk. If not, put it back,” Su Mo said calmly.

“Yes, Master,” Nancy replied.

“Remember, it is better to kill one thousand by mistake than to let one go,” Su Mo emphasised.

Nancy lowered her head, acknowledging the lesson. “Yes, Master.”

For the Phantom, this kind of “killing” could be executed in another way. That was to kill all suspicious individuals.

Succubus was also considered demons and were considered evil by humans. In the Abyss, however, this kind of evil was not a derogatory term but rather an attribute of the Abyss itself.

In the abyss, the concept of good and evil didn’t exist. Hunting and being hunted were considered the normal state.

Discussing good and evil in the Abyss… would be seen as foolish.

If the Phantom had enough power, they wouldn’t hesitate to fulfil Su Mo’s order to kill all the people in the country. For them, God’s command is everything. Therefore, Su Mo’s orders were often very specific.

Su Mo left Nancy in the world of the gods because she understood his orders better.

He didn’t want to kill too many people who were not the protagonist or the Virgin in order to avoid causing too much commotion.

Thus, if the suspicious person caught was not the protagonist, Su Mo would allow  Nancy to let him go.
