The sky was cloudless, and the sun shone brightly overhead.
A ray of clear morning light fell upon the capital, like a layer of golden waves spreading across it.
Sunlight gently ripples like ocean waves between the buildings of varying heights.
Pedestrians come and go in an endless stream. The shouts of vendors, the hurried footsteps, and the clatter of horse-drawn carriages rolling over the blue brick road in the early morning market create a symphony of the city.
Almost a week has passed since the battle in the waters off Padarum.
Although the horrific disaster shocked the world, the capital city seemed unaffected, maintaining its former prosperity.
Although during that period, the weather in the capital was stormy and rainy every day.
However, people's daily routines and the business of various shops were not affected in the slightest by the unusual weather.
Meanwhile, at Victor's mansion.
Lia stood in the study of the mansion, gazing at the mansion's main gate through the carved window lattice.
Another magnificent carriage stopped in front of the mansion, clearly indicating that someone had come to visit.
But soon, after a brief exchange, the guests were politely turned away by the servants.
Lia gently rubbed her forehead and sighed wearily, "Here we go again."
"This is the fourth nobleman today," she thought to herself.
Recently, the mansion has been frequently visited.
Moreover, these people who came to visit were not ordinary people.
They were either nobles of high status or ministers who could participate in court assemblies.
In short, they were all prominent figures in society.
Nobles from other cities in the empire even traveled thousands of miles just to see Victor in person.
Some people even went directly to Clevina territory—Bryston.
However, they all ran into obstacles and failed to even catch a glimpse of Viktor.
After learning that Victor had been away from home for an extended period, the ministers and nobles reduced the frequency of their visits.
However, a large number of guests still come every day.
Every day, Lia had to deal with these tedious visits and exchange pleasantries and social interactions with these nobles.
During this time, people from neighboring countries even came to her house to ask her questions:
When is it possible to allow Congressman Clevner to visit their country?
This question left Lia somewhat bewildered.
How come her jerk brother has become so amazing?
People are already begging him to visit other countries; what kind of international influence does that require?
Lia wasn't quite sure.
The last battle in the Padarunbu Sea was heavily publicized by the Mage Council to various places.
Viktor's strength was fully revealed to the world.
Previously, those who were not familiar with Viktor's strength had only heard rumors and thought that Viktor was all show and no substance.
But now, if you were to ask who the strongest mage is right now, no one would dare to challenge Viktor.
Countless fourth-tier spells, never repeated, are cast as easily as eating and drinking.
Even under such extreme circumstances, Viktor was still able to find the time to fight.
Apart from him, no other human mage could stand firm in that environment.
In the end, the magic that Victor used completely changed everyone's understanding of magic.
Its terrifying power, akin to the end of the world, seemed capable of destroying the entire world.
Even now, the incredibly dark, deep crater remains in the sea off Padarumbu.
Looking down from above, the entire ocean appears to be missing a large piece.
Fortunately, even so, it did not affect the normal flow of seawater.
No one knows how Victor managed to keep the ocean from ever being filled.
The Mage Council has been sending people there to repair the site and set up a magical barrier to prevent the ocean from flowing in, so that people who come to watch may accidentally fall into the deep pit.
They also continuously sent people to pour magic into the abyss, attempting to completely block it up.
Although that sea area has become a major scenic spot.
Viktor's spectacular battle scenes have also deeply resonated with the public.
The Mage Council also gained significant attention because of Victor.
After all, few people had ever thought that a mage's battles could be so elegant and breathtaking.
Lia turned and walked back into the depths of the study, sat gracefully in a chair, looked up at the ceiling, and sighed.
These days, Lia has started to give up, and whenever someone comes, she basically just says two words.
not see.
They all came looking for Victor, but Victor wasn't there. With just a brief explanation, these nobles would naturally leave on their own.
However, Lia was also curious about where Victor had gone.
Henney, who left with Victor, had already returned long ago, some even with Coco.
However, when it returned, the lazy former elf councilor seemed to be absent-minded for some reason.
I have no idea what happened during that time.
As Leah slumped in her chair, her mind blank, there was a light knock on the door.
"Miss Lia, someone has come to visit."
Upon hearing that someone else had come to visit, she became somewhat impatient, raising her voice several octaves.
"Didn't I tell you? I'm not seeing you!"
The servant outside the door continued respectfully:
"Miss Lia, the person who has come to visit is His Majesty the Duke."
Lia blinked.
Duke?
...
Levi stood in front of the exhibition stand in the conference hall, fiddling with an exquisite vase in his hands, examining it closely.
He looked at the vase with a slight smile on his face, seemingly quite pleased with it.
