Do you know why I don't allow any adventurers to enter the abyss?
Upon hearing this, the adventurers standing behind him immediately felt a chill run down their spines.
Hearing Victor's indifferent voice, the adventurers naturally knew that Victor was speaking to them.
Even though the man's voice was devoid of any emotion, they trembled uncontrollably with fear and cold.
If they had another chance to choose, they would never choose to enter the abyss at this time.
After all, Viktor was too powerful for a human.
At this point, they finally understood how Victor had acquired his impressive-sounding title of senator.
At the same time, Hera slowly walked out from the crowd.
Her posture was very elegant, and a calm and composed aura emanated from her.
She covered her mouth with her fan, and the patterns in her eyes gradually returned to their original state, like flowers slowly blooming.
"You were prepared all along to fight that monster here, weren't you?"
Viktor neither spoke nor nodded, but this reaction was tantamount to acquiescence.
"Is that so?"
Hera lowered her head, her eyes slightly raised, and the flowers that had been gradually blooming were now in full bloom.
A gentle, melodious sound gradually drifted out.
"You are truly powerful, yet kind."
Victor listened to Hera's praise, turned around, and glanced at her.
His gaze remained indifferent, seemingly unaffected by Hera's praise.
"Kindness? I've never thought of it that way."
The events between him and the Raiser family had spread throughout the entire empire; everyone knew about them.
Judging solely from Victor's outburst of anger at the Raiser's house, it's hard to believe he's a kind person.
But Hera laughed unusually, her eyes narrowed, and the patterns gradually faded.
A mysterious aura suddenly burst forth from her eyes.
"Please don't misunderstand, Senator Clavner. I'm praising your kindness, not... the useless mercy of the weak."
Her eyes, which seemed to bloom like flowers, kept swirling around, as if a wild beast had emerged from the dark gray flowers, opening its gaping maw.
“You didn’t need to notify them specifically, but you did it anyway.”
Viktor listened to her words indifferently.
"It was just something I did on the spur of the moment."
"But it was just a casual act, not enough to cost them their lives."
"This is already an act of kindness from you."
Hera smiled softly, her smile carrying an alluring quality.
As she said, if Victor hadn't given them advance notice, the adventurers in the rift might have been wiped out in the battle.
Even though they were all fourth-tier adventurers, they were only able to safely watch the battle as spectators thanks to Victor's special care.
But Victor can't control everyone.
At this point, Hera glanced intently at the blonde girl in Victor's arms.
He doesn't look very old and poses no threat whatsoever.
Perhaps Victor sealed the rift to conceal her existence.
After all, after a terrifying and powerful monster was defeated, a human girl appeared inside its body.
Once news of this kind of thing gets out, it will be a huge shock in any place or country.
Upon hearing this, Viktor slowly raised his head, glanced at Hera again, and his voice turned cold.
"So, who sent you?"
Upon hearing his question, Hera lifted her enormous skirt, bowed slightly to Victor, and wore a particularly mysterious smile, appearing exceptionally refined.
"Your Excellency, we are the Adventurers' Guild."
“We are free, and no one can persuade me to move.”
"unless……"
At this point, Hera licked her lips and looked at Victor expectantly.
“There are people who are stronger than us.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Victor couldn't help but look at Hera and the fourth-tier adventurers behind her again.
Although it seemed that the adventurers, apart from Hera, were displaying a level of strength that made Victor feel quite uneasy.
But they are, after all, fourth-tier adventurers, and would be among the top in any place.
Victor happens to know about the Beast Guild.
While the Crown Prince was still alive, the South was under his personal control.
Because of the existence of the military, the guild's space for survival is extremely small.
Even the most powerful Beast Guild is subject to strict regulations in the Adventurers' Capital.
For this reason, adventurers themselves have extremely scarce resources.
Basically, in the South, they have little chance of getting ahead.
Therefore, Hera's words already hinted quite clearly.
"A commendable ambition."
He turned around, holding Erica, and looked directly at Hera.
"Then what price should I pay if I need you to obey my orders?"
Upon hearing this, Hera paused slightly, as if she were filled with anticipation.
Her eyes became somewhat glazed, and her face flushed slightly.
The roaring beast in her eyes receded again, and the patterns began to spin rapidly, revealing two dark, ashen hearts in her eyes once more.
She looked at Viktor as if he were a perfect treasure.
“You don’t need to pay any price, you don’t even need to move.”
"I only hope that you can be with me..."
"Give birth to a child."
