Hera.
This woman possesses an absolutely beastly mindset.
In the society of wild beasts in the jungle, the strong are naturally worshipped.
Hera took this psychology to an extreme.
Hera would only favor men who are more powerful than her.
Hera's admiration for strength was for a very simple reason.
She wants a child.
From a very early time, Hera had this idea: she must find an extremely powerful creature and have its seed completely merge with hers.
In fact, if she is strong enough, the object she seeks does not have to be human.
Because she is not human.
The Adventurer's City is often frequented by all sorts of powerful adventurers.
The reason she established the Beast Guild here was to find a male whose strength was enough to surpass her own.
Her journeys to the monster rift and exploration of the abyss were all in search of male monsters who might be stronger than herself and with whom she could communicate.
This is why, after the Crown Prince informed her that an exceptionally powerful monster had appeared in the Demon Rift.
She immediately organized a team and rushed here.
She did see a powerful monster, but she also saw a man who was even more outstanding than that monster.
Victor Clevina.
If you get this man's seed, you will surely give birth to the most outstanding offspring.
but……
"Are you worthy?"
That merciless, icy voice echoed across the land.
The surrounding adventurers all froze on the spot, their mouths agape as they stared at Victor.
Hera is also included.
The dark gray heart in her eyes began to crack, and a flower bud broke through the cracked heart, remaining in Hera's eyes.
She stared blankly at Viktor, her voice trembling slightly.
Perhaps it was because her first attempt to woo him was rejected on the spot that she found it hard to accept.
"What's the meaning?"
Victor shattered Hera's last illusions with just one sentence.
"Literal meaning."
Hera is not human; she always acts and thinks like a beast, and her perception is no different from that of a beast.
Powerful beasts will watch their offspring kill each other, keeping only the strongest survivor to raise.
To ensure the superiority of their bloodline, they continuously cultivate outstanding next generations through selection.
She herself was born in such an environment.
As a member of the "Beasts," Hera killed all her brothers and sisters when she was young, just to prove that her bloodline was the best.
Under the constant indoctrination of these ideas, only one concept remained in her mind.
That is it.
No matter what, she was determined to raise offspring who would be better than herself, and even better than anyone else.
To pursue the strong, to worship the strong, and in the end...
Surpass the strong.
However, as Victor said.
You are not worthy.
On the one hand, Viktor would not allow his bloodline to survive in such an environment, and on the other hand,
Victor spoke slowly to Hera in a very casual tone:
Do you consider yourself very strong?
The moment the words left his mouth, the saplings that had just sprouted were gradually covered by a green foliage starting from their roots.
In the blink of an eye, it grew into several towering giant trees.
The lush greenery seeped into the giant tree, and even the bare branches sprouted abundant green leaves and blossoms that were about to open.
The raindrops falling from the clear sky gradually calmed down, gliding over the leaves and striking the earth, forming puddles that reflected the lush greenery.
Lush green grass had sprouted on the ground, and a gentle breeze rustled through the trees, causing waves of green grass to roll outwards with a rustling sound.
Hera stared in disbelief at the rapidly changing environment around her.
Anyone who witnesses this miraculous scene will be awestruck.
Her mind went blank for a moment, but soon, she regained control of her consciousness.
At this moment, Hera fell into self-doubt.
Is she... very strong?
Before meeting Victor, she was indeed able to make very confident pronouncements.
She is very, very strong.
From the moment I grew up and became stronger until I entered the territory of the empire.
Hera has never met anyone more powerful than herself.
There may be some who are her equals, but merely being equals is not enough to make someone Hera's choice.
Even when Hera heard about Victor, the new member of the Magic Council, she was not moved in the slightest.
How much power can a mere member of parliament have?
Until I saw it with my own eyes.
That powerful magic, capable of changing the world, could even defeat monsters strong enough to destroy an entire land.
And the user of that magic.
It was the man standing right in front of me.
Victor.
Elegant, powerful.
He only suffered minor injuries at the start of the battle.
After that, he fought him for almost a whole day without being injured again.
Viktor's voice rang out calmly as always.
"There is a significant gap between you and me, and you should be more aware of that than I am."
"Then what makes you think you're good enough for me?"
Hera listened to Viktor's every word in silence.
