Huge eyes floated in the chaotic sky, and drops of pitch-black mist oozed from the edges.

Angus felt a chill on the back of his neck and jerked to the sides.

At some point, the earth was filled with indescribable strange things.

They are like people, but they are not people.

The limbs seemed to be misaligned and constantly distorted, and each person's facial features were also mechanically performing strange rituals under the giant eyes.

Angus stood up and looked behind him.

The darkness that spreads for thousands of miles is all terrifying and ominous.

Soon, the inhuman creatures stood upright, and they reluctantly pulled their decadent bodies, and began to dance in opposite circles in circles, like welcoming the gods who observed the world from above.

A huge crow flew in the air, its beak slowly opened, and several whirling tongues fluttered in the air, engulfing the black smoke seeping from the sky in its mouth.

An eye flashed with all sorts of frenzied scenes.

Angus was held down by a huge ethereal hand, and he snapped it back, and his eyeballs looked at the crow as if he had been pinched.

The moment he looked into the picture in the crow's eyes, Angus's sanity began to crumble.

Everything seemed to rise and fall in front of them, and the obscure cries from the mouths of the believers became clearer.

His eyes seemed to be eroded by smoke and became cloudy, and he slowly muttered:

"God."

......

The monotonous black of the old trees covered the room, and only a few beast pelts added a little color to the room.

Kevlar sat in a chair, leaning back and holding a teacup in front of an emaciated man.

The man in front of her was her younger brother.

Jathew Delin.

The man is relatively delicate, with upright and three-dimensional facial features, and always has a kind smile on his face.

His body also did not have strong muscles, and in the knight family, it seemed that he was excessively thin.

Kevlar was a little agitated, and the teacup in his hand was placed on the table from time to time and picked up again.

The conference hall had been quiet for so long, and she didn't know what her father had been talking to Victor.

"Sister, don't be impatient."

Jia Xiu seemed to see Kevlar's fidget, and he smiled and reassured.

Kevlar looked at Jia Xiu, adjusted his emotions slightly, shrugged his shoulders, and said to his brother:

"Looks like you want to talk to me about something?"

"Tell me, what do you and your father want to do?"

Call Gwen back, talk about the marriage, and even call Victor along.

All Kevlar could think of was a marriage contract change.

But her father excluded her again, so Kevlar was even more confused.

What exactly do they want to do?

Jia Xiu took the cup of Kevlar's remnant tea, replaced it with another one, refilled it with hot tea, and smiled.

In this extremely cold place, it is simply good to have a cup of warm tea.

He pushed the hot tea in front of Kevlar, and said as if he had brought it up casually.

"Sister, what is your standard for judging justice?"

Kevlar frowned, a little confused.

Why do you ask this?

"You are older than me, so you should know better than me what kind of character my father was back then."

Hearing Jia Xiu's words, Kevlar lowered her head, as if she had fallen into a long-lost memory.

When she was very young, the Delin family was not in the northern frontier of the empire, so she was very fond of her childhood.

At that time, Saul VIII had just succeeded to the throne, and it was the time when he needed to win the hearts of the people and consolidate his position.

At that time, Angus was also one of the right-hand men of Emperor Oberly.

But his justice is even more paranoid than today's Gwen.

That's even to the point of being morbid.

There is no room for evil in his eyes.

Once there is an existence that does not meet his righteous standards, it will only be completely erased by him.

As a politician, Kevlar naturally knew a little bit about the aristocracy.

There are those well-meaning aristocrats who do charity and help the poor, and there are also many nobles who exploit peasants and workers and do all kinds of evil things.

If you want Kevlar to make a yardstick for goodness.

Regardless of the deeds.

But Angus was different at that time.

Even those nobles who do charity, once Angus knows that their motives are not pure.

Then this powerful knight, will let them taste the sharpness of the blade.

So this bigotry can no longer be called justice.

But Kevlar didn't understand these things when she was a child, she was like a very ordinary daughter, adoring her father.

Until Emperor Oberly decided that Angus's paranoid justice was out of control.

So he moved the Delin family to the north and sent them to this cold place to guard.

Although guarding the northern frontier was still a very important position, for Angus at that time, it was tantamount to the emperor's distrust of him.

As a result, Angus felt that his faith had been dealt a heavy blow.

He agreed that everything he did was right.

But even the monarchs who followed him thought he was wrong, so what was the point of him maintaining this justice?

Angus, who moved to the north, began to keep to himself, where he recruited many apprentices, carried forward his knightly school, and did his best to defend the northern frontier.

His justice is no longer so paranoid, and he even seems to have forgotten the justice in his heart.

Later, Kevlar grew bigger and bigger, and his younger brother Jahew gradually showed his talent and edge.

Finally, Gwen was born.

Kevlar likes her sister very much, but for some reason, both her father and Jahew seem to avoid this sister.

Until Gwen grows up and shows her unusual abilities.

Righteous Heart.

So much so that Gwen has never been cared for by her parents since she was a child.

The righteous Angus was no longer righteous, so Gwen's birth was more like a mockery and shame for Angus.

At least, that's what Kevlar thought.

"So what are you talking to me about?"

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Gwen's engagement with Victor."

Jia Xiu shook his head and said with a smile.

"No, of course it is."

"The marriage contract between the two cannot continue any longer."

Hearing Jia Xiu's answer, Kevlar was a little puzzled, and she looked at Jia Xiu, looking at this amazing brother, as if she wanted to get a suitable answer from him.

"Why?"

The atmosphere plummeted to freezing, and it seemed that even the air could form ice crystals.

Jia Xiu sighed.

"Now it's time for you to know something."

"Do you really think Gwen's righteous heart is just an ordinary natural ability?"

Listening to his brother's words, Kevlar's face suddenly sank and he was extremely serious.

Jia Xiu still said indifferently.

"If you've ever read the description of the Goddess of Justice, then you will feel how similar that Goddess is to Gwen."

"The same paranoid justice, the same ability to examine good and evil."

Jia Xiu's cold words came to Kevlar's ears word by word.

Kevlar understood everything.

Why, father, he, has been silent to Gwen.

Why, did they break Gwen's engagement with Victor?

"Because Gwen needs to maintain this justice all the time, no one must affect her."

Victor is the one who might affect her.

Gwen can't like anyone, she can't aspire to anyone.

Once those unnecessary feelings arise, then the justice in the heart will be deviated.

So Gwen has not been exposed to family affection since he was a child.

As for that ethereal love?

Oh, her marriage partner is Victor.

If it was the former Victor, it wouldn't hurt if this marriage had been maintained.

Because Gwen, who hates Victor, will not be affected by Victor at all in her heart.

And now Victor is subtly influencing Gwen.

Anyone can see that Gwen's feelings for Victor have gradually changed.

"Therefore, she must always maintain absolute justice in her heart."

“…… Yes. ”

Kevlar was silent for a moment, then glanced at Jia Xiu playfully.

"You and your father, do you want Gwen to be the goddess of justice?"

"It's not me, it's my father."

Jahieu corrected the error in Kevlar's words and smiled indifferently.

"From beginning to end, Father has always been a believer in that goddess."

"It has never changed."

……

"It's funny."

Kevlar burst out laughing, and there was some sadness in the laughter.

"In my eyes, he hasn't changed."

"Although I know that he is not acting for profit, but now, his behavior makes me even more disgusting."

Swish!

A silver-white dagger pressed against Jia Xiu's neck in an instant.

Jia Xiu sat in his chair and did not move at all, as if he was not the one whose life was restricted.

Kevlar's slightly trembling voice rang out:

"Gwen is his daughter, his sister, a living person!"

"Just because of that ethereal legend, she lost the love and life that a normal girl should have."

"Jia Xiu, aren't you even human?"

Jia Xiu pulled out a hand and slowly pushed the dagger against his neck away slightly.

"Sister, the proportion of family affection in your place is too much."

As if he was extremely sure that Kevlar would never make a move, he said lightly:

"There are some things that my father should do for the rest of his life, and as his heir, I should share his worries too."

Kevlar's hands were a little weak, and she tried to grip the dagger and put it back on Jahieu's neck, but she couldn't.

As Jia Xiu said, family affection is too much here in Kevlar.

But......

"I'm sorry, you've fallen short."

Kevlar put away the dagger, her expression not sad or happy, but explained slowly.

"Gwen's heart for justice has failed."

“……？”

Suddenly, there was an astonishing explosion in the conference room, and the powerful wave of air shook wildly against the glass of Kevlar's house.

The loud explosion completely attracted the attention of the two.

Kevlar was stunned.

What's the situation?

Did Victor get into trouble with his father-in-law?
