Chapter 641: Don't worry, listen to me, next time
When Victor had just returned to the royal capital, he was taken away by the Knights led by Gwen.
At that time, Gwen, in order to verify his identity, entered a combat state in the martial arts arena.
A very powerful attack was used at him.
In the end, Victor managed to fend off Gwen's attack and passed her identity verification.
But because of this, he entered the combat mode, and saw the level emerging above Gwen's head.
Lv79γ
This level is undoubtedly close to the realm of the supreme god, almost equal to the invincible Valkyrie Gwen in the original world line.
Gwen, who was originally in the world line, existed as the invincible Valkyrie, and her level reached the height of eighty.
But this does not mean that the current goddess of justice is inferior to the supreme god in power.
As one of the gods who eventually left the world, she still left many fanatical believers in the world.
Its combat power is by no means inferior to that of the so-called supreme gods.
Victor speculates that the divinity of the current Goddess of Justice has not yet fully merged with Gwen.
Because Gwen still retains the last vestiges of humanity and emotion.
It is precisely because of this remnant of humanity that she still has the desire to marry Victor.
Otherwise, if Gwen completely merges with the goddess, all human emotions are lost.
How could she remember or care about the engagement with Victor?
In conversation with Kevlar, Victor learns more about Gwen's experiences over the past decade.
And that's what Kevlar told him.
"Before you died...... Well, shortly after leaving, Gwen left the Empire. β
Kevlar kept reminiscing, even though Kevlar probably didn't remember all the details of the decade.
But what happened ten years ago still struck her.
"Actually, I don't know where she went, she just told me to get her stuff back."
"Her first return to the Empire was on the northern frontier, when the northern barbarians tried to breach the frontier with the help of two awakened giants."
"And with a single sword, she cut off the heads of two giants."
Kevlar was very emotional when he told this history.
It was as if Gwen's heroic battle scene at that time was reproduced in front of her eyes.
"The heads of those two giants still hang on the northern city wall, serving as a warning that the barbarians dare not commit it again."
In fact, when he heard the front, Victor already had a premonition in his heart.
In the original plot, Gwen lost her last loved ones to Kevlar's death.
So she accepted the divine power of the goddess of justice and became a container without emotion.
In the official episode, the demons invade and Gwen leaves the empire.
Many years later, Gwen returned to the Empire and slew the demon with merciless justice.
Since then, she has become the ruthless and righteous knight of the Empire.
And in today's timeline, in order to prevent Gwen from becoming the ruthless knight of justice in the past, Victor saves Kevlar.
Today, Kevlar is still alive, which has changed the trajectory of Gwen's fate.
So the reason why Gwen became the way he is now, there is only one last possibility, and that is because of him.
From a gamer's point of view, Jogwen wants to transform into a ruthless knight of justice.
The premise for this condition to be fulfilled is to sacrifice one of the most important people in Gwen's heart.
Since Kevlar is still alive, in Gwen's eyes, the dead Victor is Gwen's choice to unlock this condition.
In the original story, it was in order to avenge Kevlar that Gwen gained her divine powers under the guidance of the Goddess of Justice.
In this way, once it comes to 'revenge'.
After Victor's death, Gwen also sought revenge for him.
Therefore, as in the original storyline, she has gained the divine power of the goddess of justice.
Once again, the timeline fits perfectly.
Thinking of this, Victor pondered and whispered:
"If nothing else, Gwen has obtained the true [Libra of the Goddess of Justice]."
Hearing this, Kokot was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes widened, his eyes full of shock.
Yes, that's right.
According to Victor, it all went right.
Why did Gwen suddenly become so powerful, and why did everyone think that her strength made sense?
Because Gwen got the power of the goddess of justice.
And Gwen, who does a righteous act, is like a real goddess of justice, and naturally no one questions her strength.
"Well, wait until Gwen and I are done with our wedding."
"That night, she might have ended my life."
Victor's tone was unusually calm, as if he didn't care about it.
However, Cocott was puzzled by this.
"Goose? What do you mean? β
Why is Victor so sure that Gwen will kill him after the wedding?
They love each other so much, and there are no irreconcilable grievances, right?
Could it be that Victor is a big bad guy in Gwen's eyes?
After all, the goddess of justice only executes the wicked.
She was starting to feel like her brain was running out of ideas.
But then, Victor frowned slightly, and glanced at Kokot with a look that seemed to be looking at the unreasonable.
"What do humans do when they get married, you don't know?"
After thinking about this sentence carefully, Cocott's face suddenly turned red.
She reacted.
"I'm sure Gwen will accept me, but I'm not so naΓ―ve as to think that a goddess would tolerate human desecration."
Viktor continued calmly:
"Even if I don't do anything that night."
Victor spoke calmly, but this calmness was particularly sad in Kocott's eyes.
She remembers that Victor and Gwen had been engaged since they were children.
It was clear that they both loved each other, but in the end they separated because of the intervention of the goddess.
In this way, Victor, who was taken advantage of by Leah, would suddenly be impulsive, and it seemed understandable to Corcote.
That's what those little yellow books write anyway......
Kocot thinks she's found the truth, or so she thinks and excuses Victor.
Sadly, she didn't know what was really going on.
Everything she thought was just what Victor wanted her to think.
The real reason, Victor did not say and would not tell her.
In terms of rank, Gwen has not yet fully incarnated as the Goddess of Justice.
Following the lines of the original plot, Victor has two speculations about the possible path of Gwen's complete godhood:
The first is the death of Kevlar, which made her completely lose her family affection.
The second is that 'Victor' was killed by Gwen himself.
In the original plot, although Gwen avenged Kevlar, she has not completely transformed in the direction of the goddess of justice.
In the second chapter of the plot, 'Victor' dies at Gwen's hands.
At this point, she completely blocked her feelings.
Become the Empire's coldest judge and the perfect embodiment of the Goddess of Justice.
Victor trusted Gwen not to harm him, but again, he never really trusted the power of the goddess hidden in Gwen.
Victor didn't dare to bet.
So there was another reason why he chose to leave that night.
If, just if.
Gwen really has murderous intentions, so ......
I'm going to be tempted to kill her with my backhand. β
Almost instantly, a majestic momentum erupted from Victor's body.
The terrifying killing intent and shocking power seemed to collapse the land thousands of miles wide.
Even the divine tree in front of him trembled slightly because of this.
The swaying shadows of the trees let the dappled sunlight shine through, gilding Victor's figure with a terrifying sheen.
Cocott was also shocked by this strong aura, and his face turned pale with fright, and he sat on the clouds, not daring to move in the slightest.
Even breathing has become a little difficult.
As a nature spirit, she is extremely sensitive to subtle changes in emotions and life.
She could almost feel the killing intent coming from Victor for the first time.
But why?
She had never felt such a cold and terrifying aura in Victor.
It's as if he's cut off countless existences and carries an unknown number of lives.
In this moment, they all poured out.
But soon, the breath was fleeting.
Perhaps sensing the fear of the elf in front of him, Victor calmed his emotions a little.
and then took the initiative to apologize for the first time:
"Sorry to scare you."
Instead of calming down at this simple apology, Kocott was even more panicked.
The feeling just now, not fake!
What changes has Victor experienced in the past ten years?
She couldn't imagine.
He couldn't even say half a sentence, and could only watch as Victor continued to say in a calm tone:
"I don't have to work today, let's go rest."
"It just so happens that I'm going to collect some other intel as well."
Cocott sat on the clouds in a daze, his mouth open.
She was tempted to say that if there was anything to ask her first.
As frightened as she is, she somehow wants to know more about Victor.
She wanted to keep Victor behind, eager to communicate with him more.
However, Victor's seemingly casual words overshadowed the words she wanted to keep:
"I need to know some information outside the empire, such as what happened to the Kingdom of Kanter next door in the past decade."
"If you know, you can be the first to tell me."
God, where would she know about what kingdom?
She was nothing more than a lonely elf who was busy teaching in the academy day in and day out.
On weekdays, except for occasionally reading the little yellow book to kill time, I sleep as much as possible.
She's a typical house elf.
Therefore, the words that I originally wanted to keep could only be said weakly:
"I ...... I do not know. β
"What if you ...... If it's particularly important, you can deal with it! β
After she said this, it seemed as if she had exhausted all her strength.
It's like this simple goodbye that pushes Victor even further.
But Victor ignored her strange appearance, just nodded, and then turned to leave.
Corcot stared at his fading back in confusion, and suddenly, his voice sounded again:
"Leah wants to keep it a secret, but I don't mind letting anyone know, not even Gwen."
"I was expecting her to come to me, which at least meant that she wasn't quite the goddess yet."
"Just."
At this point, Victor, who was slowly leaving, paused.
It was as if heavy thoughts were wandering in his mind.
"This time, I may not be able to accept her."
