A Queen and a Maiden

"This is a special product from the silver moon kingdom, the ice crystal coral~"

In the hall of the palace, the queen asked her maid to present a dish to Su Mo.

Although she really wanted to sit in the opposite side from Su Mo, as a queen and a Holy Maiden, she has many restriction.

Su Mo looked at the Snow White coral presented by the maid with a slight smile, although it was a coral it's actually made of crystallization of magic energy which is really rich and can be eaten.

Usually only king and queens are qualified to taste it and just money isn't enough to buy it. On the end of the table, the queen looked at Su Mo expectantly.

Su Mo picked up his cup and took a sip.

"How about it, does it taste good?"

The queen asked with eyes that of a child who shared her own food.

"Um" Su Mo nodded which brought a smile on the queen's face.

"I haven't thanks you for what you did before, if it weren't for you who knows what would happen to this kingdom" the queen tarted to excitedly talk.

This happened a few months ago, at threat time the queen had just ascended to the throne. Although there were full support from the Holy See, there were still many factions in the kingdom that were restless.

Most of these factions were infiltrated forces under the kingdom of Horton. The Houghton kingdom also took the opportunity to make trouble, trying to pull the queen down from her throne and secretly instigated a rebellion from within.

It was at this time that Su Mo seized the opportunity to help the queen, he used his intellect and tricks to smash the conspiracies of the Horton kingdom before quickly stabilizing her rule.

At that time, Su MO's series of operation also made the queen admired him. What really made her interested in Su Mo was when he provoke a war between Horton Kingdom with his Allie's which led to two kingdom fighting.

The queen then took the opportunity to send a Saint to kill the Saint of the enemy kingdom that assassinated her father and brother. Since then, Su Mo had left a indelible mark in her heart.

Not only that, in her eyes Su Mo was completely different from other nobles. His temperament, demeanor, and mysterious origin Made the queen have a fatal attraction to him. However, she felt that Su Mo seemed so far from her and it made him feel untouchable, this feeling made the queen even more fascinated by him.

The queen talked a lot about the Horton kingdom before she told Su Mo about the blessing ceremony.

"Those who participated in the blessing ceremony need to be inspected by the Holy See to avoid being infiltrated by spies of other kingdom but I have already guaranteed you so you only need to go through the last inspection" the queen explain some details.

In this world, the Holy See attaches great importance to the blessings ceremony because if you accidentally let spies infiltrate, it will cause trouble in heaven. This kind of trouble is small but something the Holy See cannot afford to neglect.

The queen really does a lot for Su Mo, he's only been in the kingdom for a few years and his unknown origin. He is different from the other transmigrated because not only did he traverse ahead of time but also, unlike the others who traverse their soul into a native body, Su Mo transmigrated with his own body.

Because of this, if the queen didn't help him with her status as queen and Holy Maiden, it's impossible to enter the blessing ceremony with so many variable from him.

"The Holy Maiden newly trained by the Holy See will toon take office. When the new Holy Maiden take her place, I can be free from my status as the Holy Maiden and concentrate on being a queen" she revealed another piece of news.

While speaking she carefully observe Su MO's expression however, to her disappointment Su MO's expression didn't change much.

Kings cannot be without queens, even though the lifespan of kings are generally very long, they must have descendants in order to settle down and relax from being a king. The Holy Maiden of gods need to keep their bodies and mind pure. Don't talk about marriage, they aren't even aloud to touch hands of the opposite sex nor think about them.

The identities of queen and Holy Maiden themselves are in conflict. Therefore, the Holy See is already cultivating a new Holy Maiden so the queen can focus on being what she is, a queen.

Once she's no longer the Holy Maiden, she will have her right to choose her husband. Recently, there have been many great nobles who wants to become her husband after stepping down from her giantess position . These nobles were bigger then Su Mo and are basically all high ranking at the Duke level.

A queen's husband must be at least be from a duke's family to be eligible but those people…she didn't look down on them but she just suddenly fell in love with a small count named Su Mo.

This is her motive to inviting him to dinner, one is that she hasn't seen Su Mo in quite a while, the other is to see his reaction to her resignation as a Holy Maiden.

The queen hesitated a little thinking Su Mo might not be aware of this and wanted to ask him to be her husband but she her words got stuck in her throat. Ultimately, she made no further hints until dinner was over however, the idea of Su Mo being her husband became firmer.

She also wanted Su Mo to get recognition from the new moon goddess.

After the dinner was over, the queen send Su Mo out of the palace. As the carriage left, shortly after, several carriages came from the front and blocked Su MO's carriage.

"Who are you?" A knight stepped forward.

"Count of Blackstone , have you ever heart that two is better then one?" On the carriage, several people in noble attire got out and one of them said.

Two is better then one? Is this a code?

Su Mo glanced at his villain panel but there was no prompt of a protagonist being nearby so this person was a villain. After all, when a villain meet villain there will be no warning.

"Let them come over" Su Mo said lightly.

The escorting knight moved out of the way and the few nobles came in front of his carriage.

"Count Blackstone, can you step out to talk? Don't worry, we have no I'll intention" a young man spoke.

Su Mo gaze swept the few people outside the carriage and replied "Alright"

Let's see what what medicine these guys will offer him.

…

"This is the eldest son of Archduke Hill. Archduke hill is getting old and is ready to leave the entire family in his hands"

"This is…"

About half an hour later, in a magnificently decorated room with a large number of magic spells, a man was introducing other villains.

There are many villains here, moreover everyone's status is very high. There are three heirs and rulers of Duke family as well as several Marquis families.

In contrast, Su MO's title as count is the lowest in the room because the villain level of these people started off higher then everyone else. For example, several villains from the duck family are all silver level villains. Their level they had after crossing should be related to their identity, status, and power.

As for the protagonist it depends on their gold finger.

"The count should know that many protagonist are staring at you" after introduction a man name Jerol said.

This Jerol just inherited the position of Marquis.

As for the subject of Su MO's early crossing, he didn't bring it up.

"Oh?"

Su Mo looked at him with a calm gaze.

Jerol said "Some people might not know since the count is in the remote Blackstone territory. However, in the capital, the state of the Counts territory is like an open book" After speaking he watched at Su MO's reaction

He was disappointed because Su Mo remained calm. The products from the other world he invented and sell here are too obvious and it's impossible for a traverser to not recognize them.

Now, since the games had only started for only a few days, they are still adapting to this new world and aren't well inform. Some protagonist with a low start may not know the existence of Su Mo but these villains with high status does.

Moreover, these people were suspicious after all, it has been quite a while since Su Mo appeared in the new moon kingdom. As a traverser,a s long as they have a little brain they can see the problem.

"You all called my here late at night just to talk about this?" Su Mo asked lightly.

Jerol couldn't perceive Su MO's thought all all, he glanced at the few Duke heifers and said "of course not, the count should know the situation of us and the protagonist in the capital"

"If that's the case, why don't you get rid of them?" Su Mo said slightly bored.

Jerol showed a smile and said "If we could we would have gotten rid of them long ago. In fact, if they were not in the capital it would have been easier"
