Chapter 781: Almost 800 episodes in, and this "father-in-law" has finally been called out!



Therefore, she can only pass on her natural power from generation to generation.

When Victor travels to this timeline, Erica happens to be the goddess of nature in this generation.

However, the plot of 'Victor confessing his love to Erica' keeps repeating itself.

In other words, a new Victor will appear in each cycle.

He confessed his feelings to Erica on her seventeenth birthday.

So how could Victor at that time have known that Erica was about to become the next goddess of nature?

This is simply illogical.

Therefore, the problem became increasingly confusing in Viktor's mind.

He couldn't figure it out, and in the end, he had no choice but to give up looking for the answer.

Duke Reeves' words, however, made him reconsider the issue.

Of course, Duke Reeves had no idea what Victor was thinking, and naturally could not provide an answer.

He came here for something else.

"So, I want to know."

Duke Reeves took a deep breath, as if making his final mental preparations.

His gaze fixed seriously on Viktor, then he asked solemnly:

Do you like Erica or not?

Upon hearing this, both Lia, who was standing nearby, and Gwen, who had not participated in the conversation, focused their attention on Victor.

They all seemed to be waiting for Viktor's response.

After hearing this, Viktor remained silent for a short while.

He closed his eyes and began to think deeply.

He was pondering the true meaning of Duke Reeves' words.

Just as Duke Reeves had said before, Erica was definitely going to be unmarried.

Regardless of whether she acted on her own initiative or not, and whether she will regret it later.

From the current perspective, the impact of this incident is significant.

Unless Erica hides her true identity forever, she will always be known as Victor's suitor.

Whenever someone mentions Erica, they can't help but think of Victor, as if they are permanently linked together.

Therefore, the answer Duke Reeves was asking him wasn't whether he liked Erica or not.

It's not about attitude, but about attitude.

He can answer that he doesn't like Erica, but he must also take responsibility for his actions towards her.

Either refuse decisively and end it cleanly, without dragging things out.

Either accept it openly and don't keep her daughter hanging on.

Victor reopened his eyes and met Duke Reeves's firm gaze, which revealed absolute determination.

That was a father striving for his daughter's future happiness in his own way.

In fact, even Viktor himself knew this.

If you really want to be in a relationship, don't choose Victor.

Even before Victor appeared, he was already known by players as a "scumbag mage".

And now, he has almost continued that setup.

Looking back, there are so many female characters closely connected to me.

Erica is just one of them.

Therefore, if you're looking for a romantic partner or even a marriage partner, Viktor is definitely not a good choice.

However, Viktor would never say this outright.

He wanted to seize all advantageous means, regardless of the method.

Because he is Victor.

He is a ruthless victor.

Faced with the other person's serious gaze, Viktor's lips curled up slightly.

"Erica is a good girl, and I really like her."

"But, in any case, I will always respect her wishes."

This is completely different from the simple statement "I like her," and it hides two deeper meanings.

Firstly, the affection he expresses is not necessarily the traditional romantic feeling between a man and a woman.

This was enough to cloud the judgment of the goddess of justice beside her, and thus profoundly affect Gwen's thinking.

After all, there are many different forms of preference.

Perhaps he simply admired Erica, a smart and hardworking student, as an elder and mentor.

In his second sentence, Victor was telling Reeves that Erica had matured and become independent.

You should give her the freedom to have and express her own thoughts.

Sure enough, Duke Reeves's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing Victor's reply.

Then, as if relieved, he smiled helplessly.

"That's a very clever answer, Viktor."

How could he not understand Victor's implied meaning?

But what could he say in rebuttal to Viktor's words?

Just as Victor meant.

The children are grown up; it's time to let go.

He himself had once refused an arranged marriage personally arranged for him by the emperor.

How could Reeve possibly stop Erica from pursuing her own love?

After he finished speaking, under the surprised gaze of Liya, Levi took an item out of his pocket.

This is a gemstone with six colors interwoven, shining brightly and colorfully under the sunlight.

Inside, it seemed as if six colorful clouds were colliding, and the hard, transparent surface emitted a soft, flowing light.

It was as if even the surrounding space had been tinged with color.

“This was originally left to Erica by her mother.”

"I'm giving this to you as Erica's dowry."

As he spoke, he handed the gem in his hand to Victor.

Viktor took the gleaming gem, his expression calm, and without saying much, simply put it away gently.

Only Lia, standing to the side, remained confused, blinking her eyes.
