Hermes, the god of commerce and thieves.
In future storylines, this first god to return to the human world will reopen the path between the divine realm and the human world.
After the gods returned to the human world, believers sprang up everywhere.
Like a grassland reborn from ashes, they unearthed their hidden faith and prayed once more for the return of their gods.
Although believers are different, so too are the gods.
Despite being considered a god, Hermes may not be a god.
But clearly, as a god who protects businesses and thieves, he doesn't have much fighting power.
After all, he was merely a messenger of the gods, guiding them on their way.
If it really was this deity who came to earth first...
Viktor thought for a moment.
If you were to fight this god, it wouldn't be a complete rout.
At the very least, he certainly wouldn't suffer a loss at the hands of the other party.
The problem is that Victor currently has no way to temporarily retain any of the gods.
Even a god like Hermes, who seems to have little fighting power, is still a troublesome opponent as long as he is labeled as a "god".
Because of its unique mechanics, individual bosses like gods are quite difficult to defeat.
Even if you can barely manage to cope, if the other side doesn't have the intention to fight to the death.
Once Hermes returns to the heavens, Victor can only watch helplessly as Hermes departs.
However, he was somewhat surprised.
If Ribod is really Hermes, why would he appear here beforehand?
According to Duke Riviera's description, this deity apparently traveled among humans under the name Riboot long ago.
With all the gods gone from the world, why is he still able to remain on earth alone?
These are all storylines outside the game that players cannot explore.
"Fine, as long as he doesn't provoke me."
Victor had no reverence whatsoever for the gods of this world.
It's not that he disrespects the gods, it's just that he really has no interest in showing respect to these old geezers he's beaten countless times.
At this moment, Vega looked up and glanced at Viktor.
"You just thought of a very interesting name."
"Is his name Hermes?"
As I said before, there are differences even among gods.
Evil gods like Vega, who never even appeared in the game and only existed in the background with a few words,
That's what Viktor fears most.
After all, he'd never fought one.
Fortunately, these are our own people.
"You don't recognize him?"
Viktor had a silent conversation with Vega in his mind.
The crow closed its single, deep, black eye again, gently shook its feathers, and gracefully lay down.
"I don't need to remember the names of these petty thieves."
That's true.
They've already started using commercial insurance to protect thieves, why bother recording him?
Even the name of the goddess of justice was initially unfamiliar to Vega.
However, after thinking about it carefully for a while, Victor felt that he should notify the Mage Council first.
After all, they are the ones who least want to see the gods return.
But for now, we should finish the tasks at hand first.
"I see."
"You can mention it to your father when you go home tonight."
Victor stood up, his mysterious and deep eyes gazing confidently at Erica.
Like a giant rock in the ocean, it remains steadfast and unmoving.
"I will handle everything."
After hearing this, Erica sat there in a daze.
She felt a series of distinct beats emanating from the left side of her chest.
A sense of peace rose from my heart and gradually spread throughout my body via my limbs.
After Victor had been gone for a long time, Erica regained her senses and hurriedly said:
“I understand. I will pass on your words to my father.”
She pursed her lips, her gaze darting to one side, unfocused, and stammered in response to Viktor:
"I...I'll be leaving now."
Erica quickly stood up and strode to the teleportation array in a corner of the space.
At the same time, it activated the magic power within the body and awakened the magic array beneath the body.
Blue waves surged and crashed against the surrounding space, flowing back towards the center and engulfing Erica's body.
In the blink of an eye, the surging waves gradually subsided, and Erica disappeared from the spot.
After Erica had completely left, Victor's gaze turned to Henney in the distance:
"It seems you also have something you want to tell me?"
Seeing Erica leave, Henney returned to Victor's side.
There were some things that obviously couldn't be said in front of Erica when she was there.
Her expression was somewhat serious as she spoke to Viktor:
"Professor, I have some ideas about what you mentioned to me before."
That night, Victor mentioned Saphiros.
After all, he called Saphiros back so that he could make contact with Henney.
When Saphiros appeared in front of Henney, Henney was very surprised.
Although she didn't quite understand why Saphiros's wings had disappeared.
But this is a good thing, at least Hene doesn't have to worry about Saphiros continuing to be looked at with those strange eyes.
Victor offered an explanation for her.
"Safirose is not human."
Sephiroth possesses a host of monster genes within her, which allows her to even utilize the instinctive abilities of those monsters.
That is, their 'skills'.
Most importantly, Sephiroth achieved this condition by devouring various magical beasts.
