Vast territories were thrown into turmoil by Victor's meddling, and even the united rebellious nobles began to fear him as a plague god.
But there was nothing he could do; Viktor was a powerful madman.
Although everyone loathed Victor, they had to suppress their feelings and endure his actions.
But the people's hearts never gravitated towards them; no matter how afraid they were, Viktor was always just a traitor in their eyes.
The residents began to yearn for the wise and powerful Empress Aurelion to appear soon and rescue them, bringing them back into the embrace of the Empire.
However, due to the Queen's severe injuries,
People could only watch helplessly as the territories that the empire had originally recovered were gradually taken away by Victor, bit by bit.
Until he returned to Bryston.
The Clevner family kept their doors tightly shut all day long, as if they had resolved never to open them for anyone.
Viktor stood in front of the family gate, hands in his pockets, and smiled to himself.
He didn't say anything more, but turned and left.
Even if he didn't personally take control of the area, Braxton would always have been Cleviner family territory.
But when Victor arrived in Brayston, he abruptly announced a ban on the rebel army advancing further into the front lines.
Continuing the battle would directly threaten the capital.
The capital is the last stronghold. If Victor succeeds, he will completely usurp the throne and become a true usurper viscount.
At this point, the empire had reached a point where the empress was powerless to change anything.
Despite her severe injuries and limited mobility, she remained constantly watching over Viktor.
She could not stand by and watch Victor destroy the empire.
However, he was seriously injured and powerless, and could only helplessly feel that he could not stop Viktor's ambition with his own hands.
Watching helplessly as the empire's territory crumbled piece by piece over time, her grief and despair grew ever stronger.
Their initial determination to stop Viktor began to waver, and they seemed to resignedly accept the possibility that the Empire could fall completely into Viktor's hands at any time.
Just as the Queen was grieving and her ministers were at a loss,
Gwen stepped into the dark and gloomy royal palace and appeared before the Queen.
Her arrival filled the entire palace with a sacred radiance.
The originally dark, golden palace seemed to be tinged with a layer of bright light.
Gwen stood still, performing the knightly salute, gazing respectfully and calmly at the deeply troubled Queen.
An aura of both holiness and chilling solemnity permeated the air around her.
It is as cold as the ice of the North, and as bright as a fire lit in the night.
“Victor is my fiancé, but he deserves to die.”
"Your Majesty, please allow me to settle things with him."
After saying that, Gwen turned and left.
Her cloak billowed, leaving a pale trail.
The light cut through the darkness, as if it were also cutting through the thoughts in her heart.
For a moment, only the Empress and her ministers remained in the palace, watching her resolute departure.
Aurelion's eyes were slightly pale, and her face, illuminated by the silver light, no longer appeared sorrowful or gaunt.
She watched Gwen's lonely figure shrinking into the distance on the horizon, clenched her fists, and suddenly stood up from the throne.
At this moment, the Empress regained her former majesty and sharpness.
Despite her frail health, her imperial aura invigorated the assembled officials.
With a wave of her hand, the Empress issued a final challenge to Victor to the entire empire.
Many warriors answered the call, including Grand Knight Commander Gwen, to go and defeat Victor.
Players were no exception, quickly taking on this monumental task that would go down in history.
After all, they can only advance the main storyline of the game by completing tasks.
Therefore, this main quest must be executed.
And so, the player also headed to Braxton.
As a result, because they did not travel with Gwen, the player arrived first.
Players stand on the vast land of the empire, gazing at a magnificent and spectacular palace in the distance.
The entire palace, like a colossal beast, sits on the desolate land, shrouded in dark clouds and shrouded in mystery and danger, with mysterious and dangerous runes floating around it.
At a glance, it is clear that this palace was entirely constructed by Victor using magic.
Because this enormous palace was unguarded.
The entire castle was silent and empty, save for the piercing wails that echoed from the black mist, as if warning any outsiders with trespassing intentions.
Moreover, this city is located near Brighton.
Once you enter this bustling city, you can immediately see the castle that soars into the clouds.
However, in the players' eyes, it seemed that Victor had been waiting in this palace for a long time.
This evokes an indescribable sense of destiny.
Even though players know that Victor is a story boss, a key enemy who will inevitably trigger NPC assistance,
But when they drew their weapons and resolutely stepped into the palace, they still felt a strong sense of tragic grandeur and excitement.
He burst through the dense black fog, smashed open the rune gate, and with a gentle push, opened the many heavy doors, stepping inside.
However, they found the palace interior empty and desolate, devoid of any splendor or gold, containing only a monotonous and vast ancient banquet hall.
It looked like a temporary magically constructed arena prepared for battle.
Victor stood in the center of the palace, his black trench coat billowing and swirling, seemingly blending into the surrounding darkness.
His obsidian-like, deep eyes flickered slightly in the hall, exuding an aura of authority and sharpness.
Like a terrifying shadow, like a demon king capable of devouring heaven and earth.
"You're very good."
