This deity knew everything about the Nannard family.
In other words, the Nannard family was created by this god.
"The president of the chamber of commerce absolutely cannot be a monster."
Under such arguments, many people began to accept Lipoulter's claims and believe that he was the true leader of the Nannard family.
Most importantly, even Zola "believed" it.
"Because I have no choice but to believe."
Her fists were clenched tightly at her sides, revealing her inner struggle and pain.
Everything happened so suddenly, as if it were an irreversible fate.
Her biological father died at home, his body possessed by a monster, but she could only watch helplessly as he died, and...
'Coercion from the gods.'
After witnessing his father's death, Riboote's coincidences and his ruthless methods of eliminating flesh monsters.
This made Zola realize Riboot's true identity immediately.
'Hermes.'
She realized that the god had returned to Earth to seek revenge against the Nannard family.
Because that deity had made a harsh statement to the Nannard family.
'One day, I will steal all your money.'
Therefore, when other branch presidents confronted Ripoulter and questioned his true identity, Zola also considered stepping forward to expose his lies.
But in the end, she chose to remain silent and 'accept' Lipoulter's explanation.
Because she didn't know how the monster had infiltrated the Chamber of Commerce, nor did she know the true cause of her father's death.
Therefore, she could only suspect that the source of all the problems was Ripoultry.
After all, Riboo's appearance was such a coincidence.
She happened to appear just as her father was being invaded by a monster, and coincidentally, she also managed to defeat her biological father.
He used persuasive words to convince everyone of his identity.
Could he bring the same monster and replace the other branch leaders as well?
And so, Zola chose to swallow her anger and hypocritically call Riboot "father."
This made Lipoulter the natural father of hers and the head of the Nannard family.
During this time, she did not forget her original intention and went to the Kingdom of Kant to hold the kingdom's auction.
They also learned about Viktor and the power of this legendary mage.
His power, enough to bombard the entire commercial district of the Kingdom of Kant, convinced her that the Chamber of Commerce must rely heavily on Victor, a powerful ally.
"Therefore, I successfully came to the Empire by claiming to pay compensation and make a deal with the Clevina family."
"And they sought Mr. Victor's final assistance."
As he said this, a glimmer of hope flickered in Zola's eyes.
A slight smile appeared on her lips, and her tightly clenched fist gradually relaxed.
She still remembers what Victor looked like back then.
He was expressionless, yet he exuded an aura of absolute confidence.
He said:
“I have been to the gates of hell, where I angered your gods.”
"The gods have been so revered for too long that they cannot tolerate any provocation from humankind."
Even though the name of that deity hadn't appeared, he seemed to have absolute certainty about the deity's identity.
"Therefore, he will definitely come to the Empire to find me in person."
"After I've dealt with it, I think I'll go back to that hell."
These words reached Zola's ears, leaving him momentarily stunned.
“I will tell the gods that my ability to defeat them was never due to luck.”
Viktor's lips curled into a slight, defiant smile:
"It is an inevitable outcome."
...
After listening to Zola's description, Lia, who was sitting on the sofa, was slightly stunned, as if she was deep in thought.
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she leaned forward slightly and asked Zola urgently:
"So... what exactly did Viktor do to anger the gods?"
This question also puzzled Zola somewhat.
She touched her chin, frowned, and slightly pursed her lips.
Because she remembered that she had asked Victor the same question.
That's what Viktor told her.
He said…
"He stole the gatekeeper of Hell right in front of those gods..."
"A dog?"
