Gwen showed little emotion after hearing Viktor's request.
After all, as he called himself.
Because she is a knight, she will serve Victor.
She walked at the front, with Viktor following behind her.
The two walked one after the other toward the lecture hall.
This scene was witnessed by countless people, who all expressed their amazement.
"That is... Commander Gwen?"
"Knight Commander Gwen is actually walking with Viktor. Are they really that close?"
"Of course they're engaged!"
The reporters from the newspapers all looked on with envy, and the constant exclamations of "wow" made Gwen feel quite uncomfortable.
Her earlobes turned bright red as a result.
"These reporters are really annoying."
This was the only thought in Gwen's mind.
However, the reporters paid no attention to Gwen's thoughts; they watched this rather sensational scene and kept recording it with magic stones.
The fact that Victor and Gwen were walking together naturally generated a lot of buzz.
After all, Victor is now both a fourth-tier mage and a member of the Mage Council.
Dressed in a gentleman's suit, he exuded a composed and mature masculine aura.
"Knight Commander Gwen and Professor Victor are such a perfect match."
"Yeah yeah."
Amidst the ongoing discussion, Gwen could only pretend not to care and quickly escort Viktor to the lecture hall.
Finally, the two entered the lecture hall together.
The previously noisy lecture hall fell silent immediately after Viktor appeared.
Viktor nodded to Gwen behind him, indicating that she didn't need to see him off any further, and then walked towards the podium.
The lights in the lecture hall suddenly went out, and several warm yellow lights focused on Viktor.
He was dressed in a black tuxedo, looking noble and elegant.
He straightened his tie and faced the crowd below the stage.
The entire lecture hall was packed.
Gwen stood in the dimly lit corner. She didn't leave immediately, but quietly watched Victor stand under the spotlight.
Seeing him receiving so much attention, I couldn't help but stare in a daze.
The Viktor she remembered had never been like this.
Confident, proud, and strong.
He has changed.
It has become less annoying.
It has become less sinister and ugly.
Finally, Gwen took one last, reluctant look at Victor, turned around, and walked toward the dimly lit doorway.
The entire lecture hall was eerily quiet; it seemed that every guest in the audience could only hear the breathing of those nearby.
The raven on Viktor's shoulder raised its head and surveyed the crowd.
Aurelion, Lya, Erica...
Many acquaintances.
The princess smiled and stared at Victor, appearing very gentle and refined.
Lia's eyes were also filled with excitement, and Vega could tell that she was cheering Viktor on.
As for Erica.....
Her eyes were full of admiration, and a hint of melancholy.
It could even see the two princes sitting among the crowd, surrounded by many nobles.
Behind the podium, Hennie secretly glanced at the audience below, making thorough preparations.
"Professor, please feel free to call me if you need anything!"
Viktor waved his hand behind him and looked ahead again.
Rachel sat in the front row of the podium, leaning on his cane, stroking his long beard, and smiling kindly.
"Professor Victor."
"We can begin."
Viktor straightened his shirt, raised his head, and his eyes shone with confidence, appearing so bright under the light.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all."
“I am Victor Clavner, the chief professor of the Royal Magic Academy, a current member of the twelve members of the Mage Council, and a fourth-tier mage who is proficient in all types of magic.”
The requirement to start by introducing oneself was written in the speech.
But this long string of content felt like a slap in the face to a large group of viewers, leaving them unconscious.
What is this thing?
Is this the kind of achievement that people of this age can attain?
Countless people were completely bewildered, but Viktor ignored the shock from the audience.
Even when facing thousands of people, he remained calm and composed, his indifferent voice ringing out repeatedly.
The topic is: "Feasibility of Training Using a Magical Environment to Create a Realistic Battlefield."
Whoosh—
The opening speech title alone was enough to amaze every audience member present.
Using magic to create a realistic battlefield? For training?
They had never even heard of such a novel thing.
Only a few students and professors who knew the inside story of that assessment showed knowing smiles.
"As everyone knows, I am a combat mage."
Viktor's voice rang out, and the quiet audience nodded in agreement.
The mages were divided into different factions.
Such as mages specializing in healing, or craftsmen mages specializing in construction...
However, a mage's strength must be based on their area of expertise.
Combat mages are a relatively common type because they focus more on destructive power.
Similar to Duke Rivi, he was a veteran combat mage.
Every noble present knew him.
The former Duke of Riviera single-handedly wiped out 300,000 members of a cult on the border.
His reputation for power was legendary, but compared to Viktor...
