Cocote sat on the sidelines, his cheeks cupped in thought.

According to Erica, combined with the elemental riot she felt in the rift.

It is not difficult to see that Victor must have challenged the calamity again.

Although the probability of Storm Calamity taking the initiative to find a human girl is low, the probability is by no means zero.

Moreover, this is not an accident.

While in the Mage Capital, Victor also challenged the Wood Calamity.

Prior to that, Erica had also been in a strange situation.

She was covered with flowers, not a disease, but a manifestation of the thick element of wood.

Thinking about it this way, Kocot couldn't help but feel that Victor was outrageous.

The fact that this girl was able to be taken by the Wind Calamity from the north directly across the entire empire to the south shows that Victor must know something.

Perhaps, Victor did it on purpose.

Kocot is now sure.

This blonde girl must have something to do with calamity.

Kokot held his chin and squinted at the frail Erica.

It was at this moment that Aurelian stood up gracefully.

"I see."

She looked at Erica.

"Erica Du Chloe."

"First of all, I want to apologize to you for misunderstanding your relationship with the teacher."

"And, I want to thank you for the sacrifice you have made, it is your presence that has saved tens of thousands of inhabitants of the North."

Aurelian bowed slightly to Erica.

Erica was a little scared, after all, the person who apologized and thanked her was Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Empire.

And she didn't even know what was going on.

She wanted to get up and salute back, but her body was weak and her legs were weak, and she couldn't stand up at once.

But there was no need for her to return the salute, and Aurelian stood up again.

But this time, there was some subtle hostility in her eyes.

This made Erica stunned for a moment, a little incomprehensible.

"The teacher will save you, which shows that your position in his heart is important."

"But, I'm not going to lose."

Aurelian looked at Erica seriously, and her tone was very confident:

"In a short time, the Royal Academy of Magic will be opened, and by then, the academy will be accepting new students."

"That's when I enroll and join the teacher's class."

In Erica's stunned eyes, Aurelian looked up haughtily.

"I'll prove it to the teacher."

"Who's him, the best student?"

With that, she turned gracefully and walked away.

"Councilor Yard, if the teacher comes back, please tell me about it."

"I'll go back and rest first."

Kocott leaned on the clouds, yawned, sank his face into the clouds, and let out a low "um".

Gwen also glanced at Erica with a somewhat tangled look, and then followed behind Aurelian, escorting her away.

The Grand Prince has prepared a residence for Aurelian.

And Gwen, as Aurelian's personal knight, must follow Aurelian's side and protect her inseparably.

As the two left, Erica seemed a little dazed.

After all, she had just woken up, and she was a little confused when she encountered such a situation.

In the huge room, only she and Cocott were left.

The elf's former councillor is still drowsy.

Looking at her sleepiness, Erica's mind also became heavy.

She kind of wanted to go back to bed and lie down again.

When she barely stood up, the drowsy Cocott suddenly said something in a daze:

"Well, the power in your body should be put to good use."

"Perhaps, it won't be long before I see the youngest third-order mage appear."

Listening to Cocott's words, Erica froze in place for a second.

Youngest ...... Third-Order Mage?

This title, in the Empire, from the very beginning, was exclusive to Victor.

At the age of twenty, he became a third-order mage, and his reputation as a genius even spread throughout the empire.

And she, does she, have a chance to break Professor Victor's record?

Erica's heart was pounding with excitement at this time.

In this way, I will be able to close some of the gap between myself and Professor Victor.

“……”

No, it's not enough.

Erica thought of Victor's god-like power in the illusion.

The great power that Victor showed with all his might at the beginning was not much compared to the black dragon that appeared in the Far North.

And they said it.

Professor Victor, however, saved himself from the monster's hands......

At this moment, Erica clutched her chest.

The heart that is not angry beats faster.

I don't know if it's because of what Cocot said, which made her happy and excited.

Or is it because, for some other reason.

Suddenly, the sleeping Kocot woke up as if he had suddenly thought of something.

She looked up at Erica.

"Wait a minute, you're that Royal Academy of Magic student?"

Erica looked at Cocott's somewhat overly violent reaction and looked confused.

But she nodded slowly.

"Hmm...... That's right. ”

"The academy opened by Rachel Teal?"

"Mr. Rachel is indeed the dean of our academy."

Cocott blinked, as if he couldn't accept it, and covered his head, with an expression on his face that almost cried.

"Wait, that is...... The opening of the academy means that Victor will go back to work? ”

Erica was even more puzzled, tilting her head to look at Cocott who looked desperate.

"This ...... Shouldn't it be common sense? ”

“……”

She shoved her head straight into the clouds, looking like she was giving up on herself.

Because it suddenly occurred to Kocot that she promised Victor to become Victor's assistant coach.

But Victor only told her that the academy would be closed in just a few days, and that she wouldn't have to work then.

However, Victor never told her.

The academy will open!

“…… Why don't I find a way to blow up your academy? ”

"Please don't do that."

……

Victor stood on top of a tall tower and looked into the distance.

The howling wind whistled his black trench coat covered with white lines.

This is the first battle line of the Monster Rift, the city wall of the Imperial Border.

He passed the soldiers defending the city and came to the top of the tower.

With his hands in his pockets, he looked at the desolation in the distance.

After a long time, the sound of wings flapping the air rang in Victor's ears.

A black crow slowly flew down from the gloomy sky, hovering in the air for two weeks, and naturally flew to Victor's shoulder.

"I'm exhausted."

As soon as he landed on Victor's shoulder, Vega began to complain.

It had never imagined that the monster rift was so far away from the first front.

And if it wants to come here as an unobtrusive crow, it can only fly back with its wings.

"Still, something good."

"Something."

Victor didn't look at it, but just asked lightly.

Vega grinned and grinned.

"Do you want to have wings or a tail or something? Believe me, my surgery will be a success, not a single failure. ”

"Because I haven't tried it yet."

A slight cool breeze blew around, and unconsciously, the soldiers defending the city who were far away shivered.

Obviously, this bad joke is not funny.

Even the soldiers who couldn't hear Vega felt a chill.

Victor didn't speak, turned around and left with Vega.

The raven stood on his shoulder and grinned:

"Sometimes I really think you're quite human."

Listening to Vega's words of compliment, Victor was still expressionless and walked down the stairs.

"How?"

"After all, you came to pick me up."

The pace didn't stop, just slowed down slightly.

"I'm afraid that some birds will fly and they won't be able to find their way back."

"You're right, but I'm not a crow."

A gust of wind whirled across the sky, blowing layers of clouds into the dark and gloomy sky.

……

A few days later, news came out of the Empire.

The powerful monster that appeared in the northern part of the empire was a monster that seemed to be a dragon.

It flew to the south of the Empire, where it was killed by Victor Kravenna, a fourth-order mage of the Empire and the current councilor of the Mage Capital.

Easily, a crisis in the southern part of the empire was resolved.

In the whole incident, only one army carried by the second prince perished.

The second prince was seriously injured and recuperated.

And Viktor Kravenna, who is a party to the incident, is in the south of the empire at this moment.

Here, every day there is big news related to Victor.

The subhuman team led by Princess Aurelian enters the Monster Rift and excels in the adventurer team with outstanding achievements.

He even defeated the leader monster of the thirtieth layer of the abyss.

All of a sudden, the heat about the sub-team remained for a long time.

The sub-humans were as low as slaves in the empire.

And the princess was able to use subhumans to cultivate such a very powerful team, which couldn't help but set off a wave of public opinion.

At the same time, the strongest beast guild in the south of the empire took the initiative to announce that it had officially joined the Clevina family.

After a while, the Kravenna family was once again pushed to the forefront of public opinion.

……

North, Delin family.

The second prince lay quietly on the wooden bed, his body covered with bandages.

The crackling and burning stove nearby gave him a little warmth.

He barely leaned against the edge of the bed, holding a white piece of paper with black letters written in his hand.

The monster had left him badly injured and had to be forced to recuperate in the Delin family.

It is said that it is recuperating from injuries, but in fact it is no different from being controlled and placed under house arrest.

He read the newspaper and his eyes slowly swept over it.

When he saw the incident of Victor killing the black dragon, the pupils of the second prince suddenly contracted.

It's like, seeing what an unbelievable thing.

"Yo, what about reading the newspaper?"

A voice reached his ears.

The second prince's gaze followed the voice.

Kevlar was leaning against the doorway, tilting her head and looking at him with a smile on her face.

"Nothing impossible, after all, that's my brother-in-law."

The second prince smiled lightly, put down the newspaper in his hand, and then sighed:

"The eldest lady of the Delin family, how can you let me go back to the royal capital?"

"It's easy."

Kevlar's eyes narrowed, and there was a slight danger in his tone:

"Tell me, yours,"

"Why do you have a demonic aura?"
