"Found it."
"Although it's not the one I'm looking for."
He waited in his study for three days and three nights, but Vega still hadn't returned, and he truly felt a sense of powerlessness.
To be honest, Viktor began to harbor an extreme idea.
He simply wanted to destroy the world.
After all, this world wasn't real to him.
Whether it's him, Gwen, Lia, or anyone else in this world, it's all just a fictional drama.
He was in an unreal world, a world filled with NPCs.
Even he himself was no longer a player, but had become a real NPC.
Yes, this is a complete game world.
In such a world, Victor realized that he shouldn't have feelings for anyone.
So at the academy, he almost ruined everything.
That's right, everyone in the academy, including Erica and Henney.
Neither of them are real.
If it weren't for the archmage offering a possible solution—"going back a thousand years"—
Victor might really destroy the academy.
But even with this new goal, Viktor's view of the world remained unchanged.
To him, the world was still an illusion.
This is not the world he is familiar with.
But just as he was about to leave,
It was Hennie who suddenly called out to him.
Victor sat in the carriage, leaning back in his seat, with his eyes closed.
In his mind, he recalled what Henny had said to him after she had shown him around the entire academy.
...
"It's getting late, Mr. Victor, you should go home."
At that time, the sun was setting and the sky was dark. Henny's voice was gentle and concerned.
But at that moment, Viktor didn't want to go home.
So rather than Henne leading him on a stroll, it was actually Victor wandering aimlessly around the academy on his own.
It was just because of one sentence he said that Hene kept following him around.
Moreover, because of Viktor, Henney didn't teach her students all day.
Although she didn't understand why she cared so much about Viktor,
Even though the other person is already married.
But she could still clearly sense that the other person was down, and took the initiative to offer comfort:
"I don't know why you're so downcast, Mr. Victor."
"But if I don't go home this late, my family will definitely worry."
These words made Viktor slowly stop in his tracks.
He turned to look at Henne, noticing a slight blush creeping onto her face after she caught his gaze, though she still wore a gentle smile.
"Um... well, although I don't really understand, did you have a fight with your family or something?"
"But you should go home no matter what, shouldn't you?"
These words seemed to give Viktor some special inspiration.
"You can disregard other people, because in this world, no one will care about you for no reason."
"But what about your family? Don't you even care about your family?"
As Henny spoke, she seemed lost in some kind of fantasy, closed her eyes, and smiled as she said:
"If I were your family, I would miss you every moment."
"No matter where you go, I will always think of you and look forward to your early return."
"But if you don't come back, I will be very anxious and search for you all over the world, if I have the ability to do so."
After speaking, she opened her eyes, her gaze sincere, like a clear and lively lake reflecting Viktor's profound image.
"Because you are my family, the only bond I have in this world."
Finally, looking at the silent Victor, Henney suddenly realized something.
A blush immediately spread across her face, shyness covering her entire cheeks.
Realizing she had let something slip, she quickly closed her eyes and shook her head from side to side like a rattle.
"No, no, no, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant! I was just using an analogy, an analogy!"
“I never thought I would really become your family… Ah, no, I don’t mean I look down on you, actually I did think about it!”
"No, that's not right! Ah, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry, I have to go, goodbye!"
Finally, Henney left quickly because she was too shy.
Viktor was not given any chance to respond.
His ethereal thoughts gradually calmed down, and the image of Heni from before vanished like a bubble. Victor opened his eyes.
He turned to look at Gwen and found that she had been looking at him at some point, with a hint of worry on her face.
"You, you didn't just..."
Their eyes met.
Gwen was about to say something expressing her concerns when she quickly realized that she should be in an angry state.
So she turned her head back, deliberately putting on a cold and indifferent expression, as if she hadn't been coaxed yet, and snorted coldly.
Seeing this, Viktor couldn't help but smile.
Yes, Vega has not returned yet.
He should cherish the people who are with him now.
Even though they may just be data in a game, lifeless and emotionless entities.
but……
"That's what happens when you're Gwen."
Even if it's just to give them a perfect ending, and then choose to leave alone,
Sever all ties and seek the path back.
This is also why he returned to the volcano.
Since everything has to start anew, he must seize more power.
After all, this is a disaster.
"And you are my only remaining chance."
