I Have Become A Demon God. Did You Just Ask Me To Be A Minor Villain? - Chapter 63
“Has the Goddess not woken up yet?”
“No, the Goddess said she wants to sleep a bit more.”
At the exit of the World of the Gods, the voices of two little angels conversing could be heard.
Inside the Crescent Moon, the Crescent Moon Goddess was entangled. The violation of a God’s Holy Son or Holy Maiden was a major event. It not only violated the rules but also affected the purity of the soul. If it were any other God, the Holy Maiden would likely be directly abolished, and in more severe cases, face judgment.
What should she do? Should she abolish the Crescent Moon Queen and Su Mo? But she had finally managed to make Su Mo her Holy Son, and abolishing him like this… was not something she could bear.
After thinking for a long time, the Crescent Moon Goddess didn’t have a good solution. If she followed the methods of other Gods, she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
A soul as pure as Su Mo’s was incredibly rare. To describe its rarity, saying it was one in a billion wouldn’t be enough. She hadn’t encountered one for many years. Moreover, she had made an exception for Su Mo. But if she showed no sternness… Would they become more outrageous in the future?
Thinking about this, the face of the Crescent Moon Goddess turned red. She quickly dispelled the thoughts that made her blush. She felt her heart was tired!
The Crescent Moon Goddess couldn’t help but feel a bit of a headache. She decided to stop listening to the Crescent Moon Queen’s prayers for now. It’s better to sleep again. Hmm, she didn’t hear anything!
In the Crescent Moon Palace, Crescent Moon Queen finally separated from Su Mo. The Crescent Moon Queen had finished praying. She thought the Goddess would surely cast judgment. However, after half a day passed, the Crescent Moon Goddess seemed to have no response at all.
How could the Goddess not respond to such a matter? She must be angry, right? Or perhaps the Goddess had already tacitly approved of the relationship between her and Su Mo, so she wouldn’t blame her?
With a restless and uneasy heart, the Crescent Moon Queen sat down again. She didn’t dare to look at Su Mo much. The courage she had just summoned had already been exhausted.
“Your Majesty, I’m going to visit my territory. I’ll come back to the capital in a few days. If possible, I’d like to build a portal between the capital and my territory, and I’ll cover all the expenses,” Su Mo said to the Crescent Moon Queen.
A portal! That was Su Mo’s purpose for this journey. Building a portal was not a simple matter, and it couldn’t be casually done without permission in the illuminated kingdoms of the Gods. This sophisticated device was beyond the reach of ordinary people. The energy required for each activation was enough to cover an ordinary person’s living expenses for an unknown period.
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, the blushing Crescent Moon Queen didn’t hesitate and agreed. In fact, she had long harbored such thoughts, but building a portal was not a unilateral decision. Now that Su Mo proposed it, the Crescent Moon Queen naturally supported it.
“I’ll cover the expenses,” the Crescent Moon Queen said, still avoiding eye contact with Su Mo, but she didn’t intend to let Su Mo pay.
“Sure,” Su Mo didn’t refuse.
The Crescent Moon Queen quickly made arrangements. Building a portal required a considerable amount of materials, involving high-level magicians, especially important runemasters and alchemists. The cost was also extremely high, comparable to building a high-speed rail before crossing.
However, the practicality of this device was not as widespread as the high-speed rail. In the Crescent Moon Kingdom, the portal would generally not be activated under normal circumstances. It was mainly used in emergencies, such as external invasions or demon incursions, to quickly mobilize high-level forces for support.
After leaving some personnel in the capital, Su Mo quietly left the city aboard an airship. He planned to make a trip to Koma City first, meet with Liana, hand over some things exchanged from the Flurogold System, and help her get to the Holy Level faster. Then, he would return to his territory.
According to the information sent by Vivian, there was a guest in the territory, and he had to go back to see. In addition, in the Abyss, that guy Long Nail wanted to see Su Mo. The last time, he suffered some losses, and even the Demon Lord Level demons in his Demon Dynasty were killed by the little angel summoned by the Crescent Moon Goddess who descended. This time, he wanted to see Su Mo again and who knows what he was planning.
Koma City.
This was a large city to the north of the Crescent Moon Kingdom. It was adjacent to the Holy Moon Kingdom, and the Holy Moon Magic Academy in Koma City was established by the Crescent Moon Kingdom to attract people with magic talents from the border of the Holy Moon Kingdom.
‘Magic knows no borders.’ It was once a very loud slogan.
In a mountain hollow outside Koma City, an airship quietly parked. Soon, another airship flew over, and the two airships parked side by side. On the airship, Liana couldn’t wait for the airship to stabilize, so she came to Su Mo’s airship and threw herself into Su Mo’s arms.
Alya silently closed the cabin door, standing guard outside. After more than an hour…
“Brother Su Mo, I’ve successfully joined the Magic Council. However, with my legendary strength, I can’t secure a high position. I’ll find a way to climb up,” Liana nestled in Su Mo’s arms, said.
Observing Liana’s rosy cheeks, Su Mo…
“Liana…”
Another hour passed, and Su Mo handed her a spatial ring.
“The items inside should help you quickly reach the Holy Level. Once there, don’t rush to impact the Demi God Level; cultivate deeply in the realm of the Holy Level,” Su Mo advised.
Upon hearing the words “cultivate deeply,” Liana blushed, her mind wandering.

“Brother Su Mo, don’t you need it yourself?” Liana inquired.
“No need, I have something better,” Su Mo responded.
Relieved, Liana accepted it. Then, reluctantly left the airship. After Liana’s departure, the airship took flight again and, after several hours, returned to Su Mo’s territory.
His territory was not close to the capital, a choice Su Mo made for his convenience. Additionally, the Crescent Moon Kingdom had a plethora of nobles, leaving scarce land for rewarding new ones.
“Master, you’re back.”
In the castle, as Su Mo appeared, both Vivian and Nancy came out to greet him, exuberant. Judging by their expressions, if not for Su Mo’s status, they would have wanted to rush over.
“Vivian, where are they?” Su Mo asked.
“In the guest hall, Master.” Vivian replied.
Soon, Su Mo met the visitors in the castle’s hall. They were two nearly identical girls. However, unlike human girls, they had cute cat ears atop their heads.
They were catfolk among the beastmen, a pair of twin cat-eared girls. The Continent of the Gods housed various races, extending beyond humans.
“Brother Count.” Seeing Su Mo, the two cat-eared girls rushed over, embracing him—one on each side.
“Mia, Mivi, you’ve grown.” Su Mo gently stroked the small heads of the two girls. These two cat-eared girls were brought by a slave trader from the eastern Savage Continent several years ago.
The Savage Continent were still part of the World of the Gods, but they housed a myriad of races. Apart from humans, there were various other races, creating a chaotic scene compared to the orderly Continent of the Gods.
This chaos made it a favorite area for some new Gods, as the Continent of the Gods had already been divided among the powerful Gods of the Heavenly Realms.
The new Gods had no means to compete with the established Gods for believers. Some newly ascended Gods could only seek followers in the Savage Continent.
At that time, their tribe was attacked by other orc tribes, and the entire tribe was scattered. During their escape, they encountered a slave trader, were captured, and transported across the sea to the Crescent Moon Kingdom, intended for sale to nobles.
Luckily, Su Mo saw them, rescued them, and took them in. However, they were still concerned about their tribe. After Su Mo helped them improve their strength, he provided them with numerous weapons and supplies. He also covertly assisted them in regaining a foothold in the area where the orcs were active, helping them rebuild a large tribe.
Speaking of it, it has been several years since they last met. Although they always wanted to visit Su Mo, the multitude of matters prevented their plans. This time, they made a special trip to see Su Mo.
Both girls have grown up, but perhaps due to their physique, they still appear incredibly petite. The two cat-eared girls, having not seen Su Mo for a long time, lingered in his embrace before finally leaving. Then, these two identical cat-eared girls stared fixedly at Su Mo, as if wanting to take in everything at once.
“Mivi, is your tribe doing well?” Su Mo asked.
Mivi nodded, “It’s okay. Brother Count provided powerful weapons, and other tribes dare not attack us.”
Once the two girls opened up, they surrounded Su Mo, chattering away. They shared their recent experiences and expressed their longing for Su Mo.
“Brother Count, the tribe is now on the right track. Mother can handle the tribe’s issues, so we can come to see you more often.” Mivi, holding Su Mo’s hand, said.
Su Mo patted her small head. Mia, seeing this, also approached, hugging Su Mo’s other hand, “Mivi, you stay here this time. I’ll go back first. A goblin tribe suddenly emerged in the east, waging war everywhere. Many tribes can’t defeat them. Several tribes are preparing to join forces against them, and I need to go back to check to avoid any issues.”
“A suddenly emerging goblin tribe?” Mia’s words intrigued Su Mo.
Mia’s cute nod confirmed it, “Yes, I don’t know where they came from. I remember there were no goblins there before. Now, their numbers are increasing, and they’re quite powerful. The weapons they use are not inferior to the ones Brother Count gave us.”
“Mia, do you know what they’re up to?” Su Mo asked.
Mia and Mivi detailed what they knew. The goblin tribe was initially small, with only a dozen goblins. However, in just over ten days, the tribe expanded to over a thousand goblins.
Although their numbers were still inferior to other tribes, every goblin was a fighter, skilled and brave. They easily defeated neighboring tribes, conquering several and growing stronger. Some medium to large-sized tribes were preparing to join forces against them.
After listening to Mia and Mivi’s account, Su Mo quickly understood and confirmed. There must be a mastermind behind this suddenly emerging goblin tribe. Moreover, Su Mo soon guessed the Protagonist’s golden finger.
This should be a Protagonist with the Lord system.
