When those present realized that Gwen's true identity was the Goddess of Justice, many of them froze, as if turned into puppets.
They couldn't believe that the goddess of justice had been in their sight all along, and had even participated in the arena of gods.
The intense shock, like ripples on a lake, quickly spread throughout the arena, touching the hearts of every spectator and challenger.
Ten years ago, after the Cleviner family made their official announcement, news of Victor's death quickly spread around the world.
The fall of that legendary mage was a major news story that shocked the world at the time.
With Viktor's death, much attention turned to Gwen at the time.
As a knight commander of the Karencia Empire, she has a powerful background and is also the current queen's tutor.
Her status was so prominent that people looked up to her.
Even her stunning beauty captivated countless young men and even young women.
Moreover, Gwen was engaged to the legendary mage Victor at the time.
With the added weight of these complex relationships, Gwen became even more revered and mysterious in everyone's eyes.
At that time, apart from the Empress, there were few women of similar age in the Empire who could be compared to Gwen.
That leaves only Lydia from the Clavenna family and the Duke's daughter.
One of them had never inherited the family business because his brother died, and the other was the daughter of a duke, so no one dared to mess with them.
So, just a few years later, many nobles who admired Gwen's looks or hoped to gain her support began to stir.
At that time, many people proposed marriage to this Grand Knight Commander.
The result is self-evident.
Even though these people traveled thousands of miles to the North to propose marriage.
Ultimately, they were either ruthlessly rejected by Gwen or killed in the freezing cold.
From then on, few people dared to propose marriage to this great knight.
This also proves Gwen's deep affection for Viktor.
Even after Victor's death, Gwen refused to marry anyone else.
Thinking about these things, countless people looked up and gazed at the sky again.
Their gazes were fixed on the distance, on a goddess in the sky radiating holy light and spreading out a pair of pure white wings.
They faced off against a figure on the other side, shrouded in darkness with jet-black wings.
How could this be?
The goddess who represents the world's most righteousness is actually married to the most evil villain, who is his mother?
At this moment, countless people felt their brains burning, their chaotic thoughts tangled together, creating utter confusion.
No, this amount of information is just too much; I need some time to process it.
And at this very moment.
The whispers that drifted from the distance of the arena, like wriggling insects, slowly pierced through the air and reached Victor's ears.
Viktor is satisfied with the current situation.
There are some things that people won't believe just because he tells them.
For example, if Victor were to tell others that Gwen is the goddess of justice.
Nobody would believe that.
Therefore, the only way to convince them is to let them see it for themselves.
The fact that the three departing masters have appeared at the same time is enough to prove that the true identity of the Goddess of Justice is Gwen.
Since the goddess of justice revealed her humanity and attacked Zeus, exposing her true identity.
Victor realized that the original slow plan was no longer applicable.
In the time it would have taken to plan slowly, the uncontrollable goddess of justice would have already thrown all his plans into chaos.
So why not be bolder?
After all, no one knows for sure the real name of the goddess of justice; most people simply refer to the deity by the authority of the deity.
But the situation is different now.
Anyone who believes in the goddess of justice, or even just sees her, will naturally associate her with the name Gwen.
If you intend to replace someone else, you must be prepared to be replaced yourself.
Did Gwen and Astraea's divine essence merge to become the goddess of justice?
Why can't a goddess of justice named 'Gwen' just appear?
This was one of Viktor's bold experiments.
Does a deity's 'name' have to be their original name?
Viktor was eager to know what exactly the restrictions were on 'names'.
Of course, it doesn't matter if the plan fails.
Even if she fails, it only means that Gwen cannot completely replace the goddess of justice.
But people's faith has shifted from 'Astria' to 'Gwen'.
The inability to draw upon the necessary power of faith indirectly weakens the power of the Goddess of Justice.
To prevent the opponent's strong faith from affecting one's chances of winning when challenging this goddess of justice again in the future.
Although the possibility is extremely small.
However, Viktor did not want to see such a low-probability event occur, so the best strategy was to address the problem in advance.
Having achieved his goal, Viktor naturally wouldn't hesitate any longer.
"Although I had a feeling that we would eventually come to this point."
"But when I'm actually facing you, I still can't bring myself to do it."
At this moment, Viktor slightly raised his head and looked at 'Gwen' in front of him.
His voice was heavy and deep, each word carrying a profound and sinister meaning, slowly entering the ears of everyone present.
Whoosh—
As soon as he finished speaking, a clamor arose from the crowd.
After all, just now, they had already prejudicially assumed that Gwen was the goddess of justice.
Hearing Viktor's suggestive words only strengthened their resolve.
