Years later, Erica became even more lively than before.

Perhaps it's because she's no longer in that hellish environment as she was back then.

Without the pressure, Erica returned to her original mood.

Or perhaps it was because she was with the person she liked that she gradually opened her heart.

Of course, there is another crucial factor.

Viktor is now Erica's age!

She had long since graduated from the academy, and with the past ten years, Professor Victor's age had hardly changed.

Why should she feel restrained when facing someone her own age?

Only a few spectators nearby heard Erica's voice and looked over in the direction of the sound.

Seeing that she seemed to be talking to thin air, the audience members backed away, their faces filled with surprise and fear.

Why is she talking to thin air?

Sure enough, Viktor's suitors were no normal people either.

They might have already been assimilated by the evil god, and their brains have been damaged.

Of course, because everyone was afraid of Victor, they also began to be afraid of Erica.

Therefore, there were almost no people in the seats around Erica, so naturally no one could clearly hear what she was saying.

Just then, a burst of amazing cheers suddenly erupted from the audience.

"oh--!!!"

This chorus of shouts was deafening, like a mountain collapsing; the powerful sound waves shook the entire earth, causing it to tremble endlessly.

The enthusiastic cheers also attracted the attention of Victor and the others, causing them to look down.

But the scene before him suddenly caused Victor's once calm, obsidian-like eyes to lose their composure.

His black pupils suddenly widened, as if he were seeing an incredible sight.

Not only Victor, but also Aurelion in the distance and Erica beside him.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their pupils trembling, their expressions filled with astonishment.

"How...how could this happen?"

When Vega, perched on Erica's shoulder, saw the newcomer, he gave an almost human-like, mocking smile.

"Hey, Viktor, looks like things aren't looking good."

"In your plans, have you considered that she might also join in?"

Viktor's lips twitched stiffly, his gaze fixed on the visitor, seemingly unable to look away.

because……

As the armor struck the ground with a crisp clang, a female knight clad in battle armor slowly walked to the center of the arena.

Her silver hair flowed freely, and the white frost and mist she stirred up as she walked were extremely cold.

Her helmet, which concealed her eyes as the 'Goddess of Justice,' had been removed.

But her eyes, filled with sacred majesty, still revealed her current sacred identity.

That is the goddess of justice.

However, for now, she still looks like Gwen.

Aside from those who knew Gwen, no one could recognize her.

As she walked to the center of the arena, her steps gradually came to a stop.

The arrival of the female knight stirred up a fierce, cold wind in the surrounding space.

It felt as if thousands of sharp swords were constantly slicing across the skin of the audience.

Although the cold season had passed, the cold winds and swirling frost and mist caused by the female knight raged through the space like a harsh winter.

The rocky arena itself became icy cold, its surface covered with a net-like layer of white frost.

She slightly raised her head, and her icy gaze suddenly flashed forth, fixed on the location of Victor Raven.

To be precise, she was looking at the invisible Viktor.

Immediately afterwards, 'Gwen's' lips moved, and a pale, cold breath emanated from between her lips and teeth, carrying a slight chill, swirling and dancing in the air.

Then, a completely emotionless voice slowly rang out from her lips:

"The most beautiful woman in the world."

"Teacher, do you think I am beautiful enough?"
