I'm a villain, not a devil

The personal guards came over, and the others carefully stayed away from Illya.

"What did Ilia do?" someone asked in a low voice.

"Needless to say? Her sister was arrested that day and she led people to make trouble. Although the city lord's power was completely killed, before he died, the city lord also represented the face of Paradise City." Someone answered.

The scarred man pricked up his ears and listened to the discussions of the people around him, with a flash of light in his eyes.

This little girl actually still has such an identity... Then wasn't everything she did previously just helping Paradise City?

The discussion from the people around continued.

"Didn't you hear? The purge in the city is still going on. After all, there are so many people. I'm afraid Illya will also be remembered."

"That's right. Mr. Sean is not a reasonable person. He doesn't care whether you are against the city lord or siding with the city lord. If you break his rules, you will die."

"But then again, why wasn't Illya and her sister Elisa arrested?"

"We are working. Who knows if Elisa has been caught? Let me tell you, Elisa can't escape... Mr. Sean is too unreasonable... The city lord was killed to establish his authority, and probably among the candidates I need to kill some people to establish my authority.”

"Otherwise, he is a tyrant... Hey, tell me, if we do something, can we get some attention?"

Listening to the discussion of a bunch of people, the scarred man's eyes became brighter and brighter.

His strength is quite good and he can find a seat anywhere. He has been worrying about how to get on the line with Jin Gui before. Now it seems that there is no chance?

Seeing the personal guard coming over, the scarred man got the courage from nowhere, and immediately shouted: "Fugitive Ilia, I have been looking for you for a long time, how can you escape this time?!"

After that, he raised the weapon in his hand and pointed the back of the knife at Illya, intending to directly destroy the opponent's ability to move.

As long as you fall under the golden ghost's eye, isn't it much more satisfying than moving a corpse? !

A ferocious smile flashed across the scarred man's face, as if he had seen the glorious moment when he joined the Golden Ghost.

However, as soon as he jumped up, his vision suddenly went dark!

"Gala——"

The ear-piercing sound of fractures was accompanied by boundless severe pain. He only felt that he was hit with such force that all the bones in his body were broken, and then he flew straight away!

who? !

He hit the ground hard and could only use his blurred vision to scan for the person who attacked him.

In his hazy vision, the scarred man saw Sean's personal guard.

Why is it him? !

"W-Why..." The scarred man said in disbelief.

The guard looked at him strangely and said speechlessly: "Who the hell are you?"

"I, I..." All the bones in the scarred man's body were broken, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

Seeing this scene, Ilia, who was originally despairing, opened her mouth in shock.

To the bodyguard, this barely king-like guy was nothing more than a piece of shit that could be dealt with with a snap of his fingers. After kicking him away, he turned to Illya without even looking at him.

"You are Illya, right?"

Illya's throat trembled several times with difficulty, and she nodded stiffly.

The guard looked at the corpses around him and said helplessly: "I went to the residential area to look for you for a long time, but you brought the corpses here..."

"Is there something wrong..." Illya took a deep breath and made countless bad plans.

The personal guard took out a mutated scorpion tail from behind, then picked it up and waved it in front of Illya.

"The boss said, you must know this."

Know this? Boss? Why are you showing me the scorpion tail?

His boss...is Sean?

Scorpion tail?

Sean…

A lot of words rushed into my mind, making Illya's eyes dazzle with stars. However, all of them seemed to point to the most impossible possibility.

She stammered and pointed at the scorpion tail, then at herself: "Is it, is it him?"

The guard nodded and threw the scorpion tail to her.

"The boss asked me to ask you, do you want to be the city lord?"

City lord? Illya felt like her brain was going to shut down.

Everyone around him also felt that he was dreaming.

The scarred man who collapsed on the ground with only his last breath shed a tear from the corner of his eye - City Lord? What I just hit was the future city lord?

Seeing Illya in a daze, the guard asked doubtfully: "You don't want to? Then I'll leave."

Ilia didn't react to anything else, but after hearing the last sentence, she almost subconsciously uttered a sentence: "No, that's not what I meant!"

The guard nodded: "Does that mean you agree? Okay, I'll go then. It's getting late today. Remember to go to the city tomorrow morning. Brother wants to see you in person."

"ah?"

Illya looked at the other party blankly, was he the city lord?

But before she could ask any more questions, the guard returned to the aircraft with joy and flew off the ground in the blink of an eye.

There were only countless corpses left there that had been dead for several days, and a lot of people standing there blankly.

Illya looked at the scorpion tail in her hand, her head empty.

That Sean...this Sean...two Seans...no, actually one Sean.

She swallowed hard. The person she recruited carelessly... was the tyrant of Paradise City, Sean? !

The aircraft had already flown far away, and the people who had been talking in low voices finally dared to let up their voices.

"Lord of the City! Illya is the Lord of the City!"

"She knows...knows that Mr. Sean!"

"I told you that Illya was brave enough to fight against power before, and now she is finally appreciated, right?!"

"This is incredible, this is incredible, a city lord has emerged from our candidates!"

"Hey, you say, if we do something, can we get some attention?"

The scarred man with broken bones listened to people's discussions and flattery, shed his last tear, and closed his eyes forever with great regret.

You fucking... didn't you say that before...

...

In the early morning, in the city lord's mansion, Illya, who had changed into her best and newest clothes, stood awkwardly in the hall.

Until now, she was still confused. Last night, she couldn't count how many people came to flatter her, and her sister also told her a lot of things to pay attention to.

But she didn't remember anything, just drifted into the city.

It wasn't until she stood here that she felt a little bit real - she became the city lord for no reason just because she recruited the disguised Sean.

When footsteps came, she immediately tensed up and looked over nervously.

Sure enough... it was that Sean!

Seeing that the other party was about to faint, Sean walked over and patted her shoulder, smiling: "Relax."

His attitude finally calmed Illya down a little. After a moment of hesitation, she knelt on one knee: "Illya meets Mr. Sean."

Sean waved his hand casually: "Don't be nervous, I know you have thought a lot, and you also want to ask me why. After all, you can't be the city lord after just one encounter, right?"

Illya nodded heavily.

Sean clapped his hands, and two people came out of the side hall.

One was the first girl who trusted Sean and exchanged the qualification to enter the city from him that day, and the other was the old man who persuaded Sean to be a gigolo that day.

The two were better than Illya, but they still looked trembling.

Sean waved his hand, and stools flew under the buttocks of several people. After they rubbed half of their buttocks on it, Sean spoke.

"Okay, don't think too much. I just like you. You are right. You are here to be puppets."

For some reason, even though they heard that they were to be puppets, they still breathed a sigh of relief.

Sean narrowed his eyes and smiled: "What you need to do is very simple. Be obedient and don't betray my trust. Otherwise, you will die - simple, right?"
