I Have Become A Demon God. Did You Just Ask Me To Be A Minor Villain? - Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Sanctuary Soul! The famous Earl of Blackstone!

“Being summoned…”

“The summoning has been completed,” on the villain’s panel, information appeared about Su Mo’s newly acquired sanctuary soul, Lois.

Su Mo had spent one hundred villain points to summon a sanctuary soul after upgrading his bronze ring to silver. With a silver ring, he could summon souls of much greater strength up to the level of a sanctuary.

As he felt the presence of a sleeping sanctuary soul in his silver ring, he realised that he had summoned a young woman, not the grandmother ring he had expected. He called out, “Grandma Ring?” but quickly corrected himself, realising that the sanctuary soul was not an old woman but a young girl named Lois.

After Su Mo swept through the ring, he withdrew and stored it in his spatial ring, equipped with a powerful seal. Even if the ring’s grandmother awakened, she couldn’t spy on the situation outside.

“It’s time to go,” Su Mo declared after summoning the sanctuary soul. He was now prepared to set off.

Soon, several airships carrying Su Mo and his knights set off from Su Mo’s territory and headed towards the capital.

According to the rules of the nobles in the world of gods, any noble who had the opportunity to receive the gods’ blessing couldn’t wait to broadcast it all the way through a loudspeaker.

However, Su Mo had no intention of doing this.

……

The airship quickly headed towards the capital, and Su Mo sat inside the cabin reading another magical experience book.

The items in the Krypton Gold System proved to be quite useful, as Su Mo’s human strength had improved rapidly over the past few days.

Most protagonists who possess the Krypton Gold System must work hard to earn money and then exchange it for things to improve their strength. Su Mo, however, had a completely different experience. He was able to clear out everything inside in a matter of seconds.

If it weren’t for his upcoming trip to the capital, Su Mo would have chosen to conserve some of his villain points and upgrade the Krypton Gold System first. After all, he couldn’t easily use his demonic power in the capital.

“My lord, we are approaching the capital,” the maid’s voice interrupted Su Mo’s thoughts as he sat on the flying boat in the afternoon.

The king has arrived.

Su Mo stepped out of the airship and gazed upon the distant city. It was the capital of the Crescent Kingdom, a vast city with a population of several million people. In the world of the gods, a city of several million people was considered super big.

Although the city lacked high-rise buildings, it had a wide area in the centre of the Crescent King’s Capital, a golden pyramid floating in the sky. It was the largest and most essential temple in the kingdom, and beneath it lay a vast square where people prayed to the gods every day.

The divine light was strongest at this square, making it a crucial location in the entire kingdom.

As Su Mo and his companions arrived, several flying monsters flew over the city, commanding, “All airships, stop at square three,” a warrior in uniform said.

Flying was forbidden within the capital, and designated parking spots were outside the city. Su Mo’s airship made its way there, and soon, all the airships stopped one after another.

Following this, Su Mo’s female officer released an exceptionally stunning carriage from her inter-spatial bag. Accompanied by five hundred knights, the carriage began moving slowly towards the capital’s inner part. The excitement filled the air in the capital as many children in the city spotted the guards and the procession of noblemen, “Look, Mom, look, there are some more noblemen coming,” they exclaimed.

As the convoy made its way through the city, some people recognised the flags and began talking about the Earl of Blackstone.

“This seems to be the convoy of the Earl of Blackstone. It is said that the Earl of Blackstone is incredibly rich. Even the Queen’s wealth can’t compare to his.”

Others said, “Wow, he invents the soap we use.”

“……”

In the Crescent Kingdom, the Earl of Blackstone was the most famous nobleman of recent years. His name was known to everyone.

“He’s here?”

Meanwhile, in the palace of the Crescent Kingdom, the Queen received the news of Su Mo’s arrival very quickly. She had been dealing with political affairs.

“Cathy, go there and invite Earl of Blackstone to the palace for dinner,” the Queen of the Crescent said.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

After receiving the order, a female officer named Cathy delivered the invitation. She quickly got into a carriage and rushed out of the palace.
