"Who broke into the palace?"

Jiang Li continued to ask, could this matter be related to the necklace swap?

Rain glanced around, pulled him to a deserted place, and whispered quietly.

"It's the Demon King."

"Cough cough!"

Jiang Li almost choked on his own saliva.

"Who are you talking about?"

He asked in disbelief.

"Devil!"

Rain shrugged her shoulders, also with an expression of disbelief.

"Last night, the intruder showed up at the palace unnoticed, claiming to be the Demon King and that he was out to take the princess. Then he vanished, and we couldn't find him anymore."

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Jiang Li shook his head repeatedly.

joke!

Don’t I know whether I entered the palace last night and whether I wanted to snatch the princess?

I clearly went to the residence of Grand Duke Senfornia last night and didn't even enter the palace!

Who the hell ruined my reputation!

"What's the outfit of that guy who calls himself the Demon King?"

Jiang Li continued to ask, I just don’t believe it, is there really someone pretending to be me?

"Full armor and a mask, that's what the guards said."

Rain gave the description of the guards.

Wow, this is an invader who has done his homework!

This description is exactly the same as Jiang Li's demon king posture. It must be that someone deliberately disguised himself as him and then appeared in the palace to cause trouble!

But who exactly?

"After hearing about this, His Majesty the King and His Royal Highness the Prince were teleported back from the front lines overnight. Most of the kingdom's forces have been gathered in the palace. Now the entire palace is under martial law. No one is allowed to see Her Royal Highness the Princess. Only Claire and I are allowed to take care of Her Royal Highness's meals and bedtimes."

Rain recounted the situation in the palace.

His Majesty the King is a daughter-con, and His Royal Highness the Prince is a sister-con.

Jiang Li already knew this when chatting with Alice.

The person who should not be provoked in the entire ancient Kingdom of Belzer is Alice. Once she is wronged, the king and the prince will be like a dragon whose reverse scales have been touched. They will plow the entire country to find the criminal.

As soon as they knew that their good daughter and sister were targeted by the devil, the two of them didn't even care about the front line and ran back to the palace overnight.

What could be more important than protecting my daughter and sister?

No!

"So I definitely won't be seeing Alice today?"

"Yes."

"That's fine."

Jiang Li thought about it and gave up the idea of entering the palace.

Taking a step back, since only a few people like Claire and Rain can see Alice now, then the noble who offered the necklace as a tribute certainly cannot see Alice now. At least there is no need to worry that she will turn into a greasy uncle at some point.

"In that case, I'll leave first."

Jiang Li planned to say goodbye and he would find a way to solve the problem of the imposter later.

Hey, once you become famous, all kinds of troubles will come to you!

We must let that bastard know the price of pretending to be the devil!

"Please wait a moment."

When he was about to leave, Rain called him again.

"To defeat the Demon King, the power of the black-haired adventurers is indispensable. Therefore, the King will send someone to the guildhall this afternoon at the latest to invite you to serve as guards in the palace... When I leave, Her Highness Alice asked me to convey this to you."

"I understand."

Jiang Li suddenly understood after hearing this.

Humph, what a smart little princess.

After leaving the palace, Jiang Li returned to the guild hall.

Not long after lunch, an envoy from the palace came over and invited the four black-haired adventurers who were still in the guild hall to enter the palace to serve as the princess's guards. The remuneration was quite astonishing.

"Go! You must go!"

"How can we allow the princess to be snatched away by the Demon King? Don't you care about our dignity as reincarnated people?"

"My sword has been thirsty for the blood of the devil for a long time!"

Everyone agreed immediately, and Jiang Li had no objection.

"I'm not going."

The witch drew her hood closer.

"Then wait for me in the hall."

Jiang Li nodded in agreement.

It would be inconvenient to bring her into the palace. With her identity as a demon, if she was discovered in the palace, she would definitely be labeled a spy, and even Jiang Li would be implicated.

The four of them boarded the carriage and drove towards the palace.

"Thank you all for coming here. Alice's safety is in your hands these days. Please protect her at all costs!"

His Majesty the King roared in a tough-guy manner.

He was a tall, bearded uncle with blond hair and blue eyes, and he looked intimidating without even being angry.

It’s strange. How could this ape-like man give birth to such a petite and cute daughter like Alice? Is there something wrong with his genetic factors?

After instructing a few people, the king left in a hurry.

It seems that he doesn't know that Alice invites Jiang Li into the palace every day.

Otherwise, they would probably have started fighting by now.

"I'll go patrol Alice's nearest post."

When the captain of the guards guarding the city appeared, Jiang Li took the initiative to recommend himself.

"Mr. Nanxiang? That's fine. You are the most powerful and have experience with close encounters with demon kings. You are indeed the most suitable person to protect Her Highness the Princess!"

The captain of the guard thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

The layout of the palace is composed of many palaces of different sizes surrounding the huge castle in the center. The castle is the core of the palace, and the royal family's bedroom is in the castle.

Alice lived at the very top of the castle, one floor higher than the king and the prince's bedrooms, which shows the king's preference for her.

Jiang Li’s patrol position is on the top floor of the castle.

"Why are you here too?"

Claire stared at him with visible hostility.

"If you don't want me to come, you can take care of the demon king yourself!"

Jiang Li looked at her with squinted eyes, with an expression that said, "If you can do it, go for it."

"cut!"

Claire snorted in dissatisfaction, but her expression soon improved.

"Listen carefully, you can only guard outside and cannot enter the room! According to the rules, only Rain and I are qualified to contact Her Highness Alice!"

I have no idea what she is so proud of.

This woman seemed to regard him as an imaginary enemy, as if she was afraid that he would take Alice away. In fact, he had no such idea at all.

"It's great, isn't it?"

Jiang Li smiled quietly.

"No, nothing like that..."

Claire started to stutter and seemed to be lacking in confidence.

"There's no one else here, just admit it honestly."

Jiang Li looked at her with disdain.

"I know. You must be giggling every night when you look at Alice's sleeping face. You can't help but want to lick the spoon Alice uses to eat. And your mouth will be dry when you take a bath with Alice, right?"

Someone will definitely ask Jiang Li why he knows so much, and it’s all thanks to Tiona.

"We've never taken a bath together."

Claire whispered.

"So peeping into someone's sleep and wanting to lick a spoon are real?"

“…No, that’s not the case.”

Claire looked away guiltily.

"You can't even admit your feelings, and you still dare to say you love her? I really despise you!"

Jiang Li gave him a cold and disdainful look.

"Who said that! I admit that I love Her Highness Alice, so what?"

Claire suddenly became anxious, and since there was no one around, she announced proudly.

"I recorded it and will play it for Alice later."

Jiang Li took out the student handbook and played it once to prove what he said was true.

From "It feels great, right?" to "I admit that I love Her Highness Alice," the entire conversation was recorded.

"Ahhhh! Destroy this magic item for me!"

Claire screamed like a groundhog and pounced on the student handbook with her teeth and claws bared.

"Ah."

Jiang Li sneered and easily avoided her entanglement.

"If you don't want me to play this in front of Alice... you know what I mean, right?"

"W-what do you want to do?"

Claire swallowed and hugged her body tightly with a look of fear.

Jiang Li whispered a few words in her ear, and Claire's expression changed several times.

"Claire, what happened? I heard you screaming in pain."

After a while, Alice came out of the room.

"Brother Li, are you here too?"

As soon as the little blonde girl saw Jiang Li, she came over with a look of surprise.

"I'm getting the top-tier security job, and from now on I can stay here forever!"

Jiang Li immediately greeted her with a gentle smile, leaving Claire, whose face was dark, behind.
