This scene left the entire audience wide-eyed and stunned.
What happened?
Could it be that...
Another... another instant kill!?
...
at the same time.
Athena watched Poseidon and Aubrey exchange blows on the arena, launching a series of probing attacks.
She glanced at Viktor, who remained calmly observing the battle, and his nonchalant attitude inexplicably made her a little angry.
This finally made her unable to hold back any longer.
So Athena simply asked directly:
"Didn't you hear what that old guy said?"
"I heard you."
Viktor answered slowly and deliberately.
This unhurried attitude made Athena even angrier.
"Then why don't you come out and clarify things!?"
She didn't believe that Poseidon's statement, "If you lose, the gods will no longer fight," was an instruction given by Victor.
If Viktor truly wanted to win, he would never have so easily uttered words like "giving up his advantage."
This is tantamount to using one's own advantages as bargaining chips to gamble with humanity on the outcome.
If they lose, they will lose a huge advantage.
Besides, would Poseidon listen to Victor?
You should know that Poseidon, that old man, went to find Zeus as soon as he arrived.
I wonder what those two old men were plotting when they were together.
In any case, Victor had almost no interaction with him.
Therefore, it is absurd for Victor to trust that Poseidon could defeat the human who instantly killed Ares.
As the goddess of wisdom, she was quick to notice something amiss on the field.
However, Viktor remained silent, which Athena found difficult to understand.
After all, it's impossible for the other side not to see the current situation.
But why?
Is Viktor really that confident and unafraid of failure?
Then why did he summon the gods to participate in this battle?
As Athena's question rang in his ears, Victor turned and said to her in a tone that seemed mocking:
"Oh? Are you worried about me?"
"Are you still worried that I will fail?"
Athena gave a cold laugh.
"At a time like this, you still have the mind to joke?"
She crossed her arms over her chest, frowned, and continued:
"But you're right, I am indeed very worried that you will fail."
"Don't forget your previous promise."
Why did Athena reluctantly agree to participate in the war of the gods with Victor?
Part of it was because she was infected with the virus and felt she had to obey Victor's orders.
On the other hand, Victor had already made her a promise.
As long as she participates and wins the battles she deserves to win.
Victor would then lead them to the birthplace of the gods—the Empire of Karencia.
There, they will have the opportunity to return to their homes.
Therefore, Athena didn't care what Victor's plan actually was.
She just wanted Victor to win so they could get home quickly.
Upon hearing this, Viktor gave a faint smile.
"Don't worry, I promised you, and I will definitely do it if I can."
"But you don't need to worry too much."
"He's not qualified to affect my plans."
