1. This is a transaction

This is a world that completely lacks a “protagonist,” and I, unfortunately, was labeled as the “big villain” the moment I arrived in this world.
Although there is no “protagonist,” which prevents me from being “stabbed to death by the protagonist” no matter how hard I try, from another perspective, this also leads to a very serious problem: without a protagonist, there will be no ” protagonist halo” to protect me from the threat of a death script.
What? Ke Fei Er? Who is she? I’ve never heard of this person’s name.
Nilu? She’s not the main character either~ I remember she is the queen of the newly emerging Rodema Empire in the center of the continent, and she has nothing to do with the main character.
As for me, I am now forced to stay in the Great Ying Empire for some profound reasons. This reason is called… I was discovered by the queen here, Louise IV, in my true form.
How this queen, who has no “truth” in her entire being, discovered my identity, I really have no interest in investigating. But even if she found out my true self, I have ways to counter her. After all, she knows my secrets, and I know her true face~ If you dare to “do me in,” I dare to expose your “true face” before I die; let’s see who has the guts for a passionate exchange!
It’s obvious that Queen Louise IV doesn’t dare to, and besides, she doesn’t seem to want to “silence” me either. I haven’t even seen her script for my death, so it has turned into the current situation in the script.
【Oujili and Louise IV are getting married.】
I married Louise IV, and I’ve latched onto a thigh that could kick me out at any moment, because: although the marriage is real, we actually haven’t done anything. This is merely a way for us to reach an agreement based on our mutual “concerns” and demands. I need Louise IV’s identity as queen to ensure my safety, and she seems to want to utilize my so-called “prophetic” power. We need each other while being wary of one another, so. .. using marriage as an excuse is just perfect.
At this moment, I am accompanying this queen to an event where she is notifying the various nobles of the Great Ying Empire about our marriage. This sparkling young idol is quite shrewd; she says we are getting married, but she hasn’t specified ” which day,” perfectly ensuring that I don’t gain even a tiny advantage, even though I wouldn’t dare to take advantage of her.
After all, a queen like Louise IV is like a rose with thorns; one careless move… and it could draw blood.
Looking around, the queen of the Great Ying Empire’s “notification,” especially regarding “marriage,” is definitely not a trivial matter. Almost all the nobles in the city have come to congratulate us, the “newlyweds.”
Their congratulations to the queen are certainly genuine; after all, who would dare not congratulate the queen? But… as for my “congratulations,” they don’t seem so friendly to me.
“What’s wrong?”
The queen, holding onto my arm, quietly leaned in. Don’t be fooled by her current delicate demeanor, perfectly showing our affection and deep feelings; in reality… all I could hear was Louise IV’s suspicion.
“How can you even ask what’s wrong?”
In such a situation, I couldn’t turn against the queen. I could only maintain a smile that I had painstakingly practiced and whispered back, “What’s the difference between you dragging me here and throwing me into a den of wolves?”
I looked at the majority of people in front of me, who were all aware of my “death script,” suppressing my inner tension, and complained to the queen beside me.
Queen Louise IV of the Great Ying Empire, though a queen, is actually a young girl. With an idol-level figure; unparalleled power; and a seemingly “innocent” personality, even one of these traits would be enough to attract a large number of sycophants, let alone that Louise IV possesses all three.
Even though, in my view, all three of these traits are just a facade to disguise her true self, this woman is essentially a “ruler” more dangerous than a tyrant. But those foolish admirers don’t care! Seeing the queen so perfect , they foolishly think they are the special ones who could win her affection, completely ignoring the queen’s “inner self.”
Now that I have become the queen’s fiancé, the young noblemen naturally direct their anger and resentment towards me.
Clearly, my maneuvering is indirectly saving them.
“I did it on purpose~ Aheihei☆~”
This woman’s innocent laughter was mixed with pride, but to others, it appeared as a display of affection and banter between us, which only made them gnash their teeth in frustration, adding more to the death script.
“I’m just curious about what you saw, Oujilide~”
“Death. Is that answer perfect enough, my queen?”
“Hmm~ Even if you describe it that way, I still can’t imagine what your ‘prophecy’ actually looks like~”
Louise blinked, “If you want to go back early, it’s not impossible. Or, why don’t you try begging me?”
“Go meet that one called Zerola.”
It’s absolutely out of the question to beg this woman! That’s a “creed” I’ve already established; otherwise… do you think I ended up in a situation of “marrying the queen of the Great Ying Empire” by chance?
This woman is currently so clear and lovely, innocent and naive, yet her true nature is so insidious and cunning. Maintaining a relationship of exploitation with her, I feel like I’m already playing with fire.
I directly rejected the queen’s temptation, watching her display a pout that only a young girl would have.
“Tsk~ So, when will you prophesy for me next?”
I need her to “guarantee my safety,” to keep me safe from the threat of the death script. After all, the queen isn’t the main character in the script, but she has enough power and means to ensure I live well.
And she needs my prophetic power; to survive, I can only cling to her.
That’s our relationship: whoever messes up first will just wait to die.
“All I see now is ‘death.’ If you cover for me once, I’ll help you take a look. No, let’s be honest, if you don’t bring me along, this wouldn’t even happen, right? “
This time, the queen seemed much more serious.
“Ah, don’t disappoint me too much, Oujilide. Do you think I would gather all the decent nobles in the city just for fun to let you meet them?”
I was taken aback, but the script immediately provided me with an explanation.
【Louise IV wants Oujilide to be aware of the danger in advance!】
Such content…
Could it be: the queen is giving me an early “heads-up,” letting me be aware of the dangerous figures in the Great Ying Empire in the future!? After all, she doesn’t have any scripts and doesn’t know what the death script is. Using this method to “remind” me is the most covert and clever! It has nothing to do with whether I can see the death script or not!
Before I could react, the girl beside me tightened her grip on my arm, her chest… completely pressed against me.
“Let’s think about it slowly tonight; for now… don’t embarrass me, okay~”
“Darling~”

Everyone, the side story is starting now~
The content of the side story is about the queen, don’t ask, asking is just my resentment.
