...
Victor, who became emperor, almost never participated in politics.
He never actually appears in the palace.
Aurelion, on the other hand, despite not being the emperor, has returned to the throne.
This left all the nobles completely bewildered.
What are these two up to now?
Those who became emperors did not participate in politics, while those who did not become emperors dealt with state affairs every day.
Where is the real emperor?
However, Viktor is best suited to be a hands-off manager.
He did nothing when he was the head of the household, how can you expect him to be diligent when he becomes the emperor?
Obviously, that's a bit impossible.
However, Victor becoming emperor did bring a lot of peace to the world.
No one has ever seen Viktor within the Empire, yet he is frequently seen all over the world.
There are always reports that Victor has appeared in some country and conveniently solved the natural disasters that are troubling the residents.
Whenever there is a landslide, a tsunami, or any other event that occurs in the outside world, news spreads that Victor has appeared and resolved the situation.
It seems that without realizing it, Victor's identity has become more than just the emperor of the Karencia Empire.
Instead, it became a legend.
He seemed to have no free time, and in the end, he even appeared outside with the Empire's Grand Knight Commander Gwen, who was also his former fiancée.
It is said that they attracted the world's largest cult and wiped them all out in one battle.
However, the sheer size of those cultists was astonishing; their final faith, along with the tokens of a host of gods, summoned the gods to descend.
The gods appeared in the world, but they hadn't yet had a chance to spread their fame and gather faith.
It suffered a comprehensive blow.
At the same time, people around the world declared that they would never accept the blessings of gods and would never have faith in them.
Human beings should strive to be masters of their own destiny.
These great gods, having just descended upon the world, were enraged by the world's rejection.
Anger fueled their violent emotions, causing them to break free from their "intermittent illusions."
Then?
And that was the end of it.
This time, the gods didn't even have a chance to exert their remaining influence, nor did they leave much of an impression on this world.
They then encountered Victor, the god of death.
In that battle, Victor fought nine gods single-handedly and killed them all.
The reason why there are only nine is the same as before.
Hermes died young, the goddess of fertility couldn't descend from the heavens, and Hera, the queen of the gods, was reincarnated long ago.
Zeus and the other gods thought they could return to the heavens and await resurrection, but what awaited them was the devouring of the evil god Habaka.
The virus itself took away the virus from Zeus and his companions.
That makes sense.
In the end, Viktor had only one enemy left.
The archmage who carries the Spear of Gungnir.
"Victor!"
"As expected, this battle between us has finally come!"
The archmage was in the sky, wielding the Spear of Gungnir, clad in armor, and transformed into the form of Odin.
A standoff with Victor in the sky.
This time, he did not summon his offspring.
He didn't even summon those heroic spirits.
Because he knew that even if they were summoned, Viktor could easily destroy them with his abilities.
As for Heroic Spirits, is there even a question?
In his Valhalla, there are two heroic spirits who can threaten Viktor.
One is Tisnato, and the other is Aubrey.
Tisnato is due to his nature as the Hellfire General, and he controls the entire army of Heroic Spirits on behalf of the Archmage.
Aubrey, on the other hand, is invincible in strength and can fight Victor.
However, it wasn't until Victor discovered the Goddess of Justice within the fake Libra and allowed Gwen to inherit the Goddess of Justice's power without any negative impact that things changed.
The Grand Master knows this.
Viktor had actually been aware of all his plans long ago.
Believe it or not, as long as he summons the army of heroic spirits.
The next second, Tisnato will lead these Heroic Spirits to launch a direct counterattack against Endymion.
Sometimes, the battle of wits is that simple.
Viktor had made all the preparations.
He was even able to withstand Endymion's fall.
From this perspective, Ragnarok was actually a failure.
The Grand Mage still has a slim chance of victory.
It's the [Gungnir Spear] in his hand.
Looking back now, Chaos may have been aware of Viktor's existence long ago.
Therefore, with the help of the Archmage, he used the Spear of Gungnir in an attempt to eliminate Viktor.
As for why Chaos doesn't use this rule-based weapon himself.
It's very simple.
As mentioned before, the effect of the Spear of Gungnir is a predetermined cause and effect.
It means that an event that should have succeeded will surely succeed with the blessing of the Spear of Gungnir.
To give a very simple example.
The Archmage is Loki, and Loki will trigger Ragnarok; this is an established fact.
But before this fact could be realized, someone who shouldn't have been involved in this event appeared.
That is, Victor.
Victor's appearance means that Ragnarok might fail, or rather, it is certain to fail.
But Ragnarok would certainly succeed for Loki.
This creates a contradiction.
Is Ragnarok destined to succeed, or is it because of Victor that Ragnarok is destined to fail?
The Spear of Gungnir came into play at this moment.
