Victor appeared to everyone's surprise, and his dark red windbreaker made people feel even more dangerous.
"Your Majesty, Victor Cravener has arrived."
The eunuch reminded Emperor Aubrey.
The surrounding mages looked at each other and asked each other:
"Victor Cravenna? Is that the head of the Cravenal family?"
"Didn't it mean that Victor wanted to cause a volcanic eruption and eventually died inside the volcano?"
"He didn't die, but came back?"
A mage suddenly asked Victor:
"Victor! You sinner! How dare you come to the palace to see His Majesty!"
When Victor heard the man's words, his tone was cold.
"Crime? What crime have I committed?"
He glanced back at the source of the sound.
The cold eyes were like an ice spear, piercing the mage's heart, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
But soon, a burning resentment spread throughout his body.
As if he was immersed in the scene, in the next second, he fell to the bottom of Mount Vesuvius.
The intense heat actually made him breathless...
Is that magic?
There is someone who can master the oppressive feeling of magic to such a terrifying degree!
Suddenly, Victor withdrew his eyes and looked at the king again.
"Ha! Phew..."
The mage pinched his neck and breathed heavily, crazily craving for the gentle air.
Revenge, that's revenge from Victor!
He was panicking and sweating profusely.
But even so, he still needs to stand up and question Victor.
"You... the sinner who almost caused a volcanic eruption!"
"Even if you are not dead, you have committed the grave crime of absconding in fear of crime! How dare you come back!"
"Ah."
Victor smiled contemptuously and never looked at him again.
"I came here under the emperor's will, but you asked me again and again why I dare to come back?"
"Could it be said... that you are more powerful than His Majesty?"
The mage hurriedly shut his mouth. There were some things that he needed to introduce, but he didn't dare to respond to this matter.
But his goal has been achieved.
Others will help him say some words.
The other mages quickly took over the conversation, and their words were full of hostility towards Victor.
"Your Majesty, the head of the Cravenna family is simply messing around!"
"He didn't mention his crimes at all, and he still slandered the ministers and His Majesty!"
"I beg your Majesty to convict you!"
Emperor Aubrey waved his hand, and the eunuchs around him immediately shouted.
"quiet!"
Everyone in the hall obediently shut their mouths.
But they still stared at Victor with hatred in their eyes, wanting to peel off his skin and drink up his blood.
It can't be helped, because he is Victor Cravener.
It's inherently hateful.
The second prince, who was among the crowd, shook his head.
It was a pity that Victor was not forced into a desperate situation.
But...he didn't die in the volcano.
The second prince still remembered the descriptions among many mages at that time.
The crater of the volcano burst out with amazing energy, instantly suppressing the volcanic eruption.
If Victor was really inside the volcano at that time, he was trying to make the volcano erupt.
Then under that energy, there is no possibility for him to survive.
"Tsk, what a pity."
The emperor stretched out his hand and hooked Victor, and the eunuch beside him immediately shouted from the hall:
"Victor Klevenner! Come forward and hear the trial!"
Victor walked to the position closest to His Majesty and waited for questioning.
The emperor opened his eyes and stared at Victor, asking: "Did you cause the eruption of Mount Vesuvius?"
Hearing this question, everyone present could not help but stretch their necks, wondering what Victor would answer.
In other words, what they hoped for was Victor's quibble.
Gwen was equally curious, and she hoped Victor would tell the truth.
Tell the truth that this matter has nothing to do with him.
Gwen can stand by the emperor's side not just as his majesty's bodyguard.
Her role is crucial. She has a righteous heart and can easily distinguish between true and false lies.
Therefore, when the emperor asked Victor, Gwen's eyes stayed on Victor.
The heart of justice has been activated.
"The abnormal movement of the volcano is indeed caused by me."
"hiss--"
Victor admitted frankly.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they heard the truth, and Gwen's heart also skipped a beat.
She couldn't believe it was true, but her righteous heart told her the truth.
"Victor, you didn't lie."
Gwen spoke and pronounced Victor's authenticity.
And these words almost ignited the emotions of everyone present.
They were like a volcano that suddenly erupted in silence. They pointed at Victor and began to output wildly, yelling:
"Asshole! Do you know what you did!"
"You are the murderer who almost killed everyone!"
"A volcanic eruption, a natural disaster of this magnitude, do you know how much responsibility you have!?"
Gwen also felt an unbearable emotion in her heart.
Victor became the murderer who caused the volcano to erupt. She was the most difficult person to accept.
Gwen felt extremely guilty.
If a natural disaster strikes, then she is the biggest sinner.
She did not refuse Victor's companionship, and in the end, it almost caused disaster.
"But I was also the one who stopped the volcano from erupting."
Suddenly, Gwen raised her head, and an obvious look of horror flashed in her eyes.
"Victor, you didn't lie..."
Duke Levi, who had been kneeling on the ground expressionlessly, suddenly raised his head.
When Victor aroused everyone's anger, his next words silenced everyone.
Accompanying the judgment of Gwen's righteous heart, these words were like a piece of thousand-year-old ice sealing the volcano, causing everyone present to fall into boundless silence again.
All the mages present clearly saw that scene.
At the moment when the volcano was about to erupt, that astonishing white light shot into the sky and ruthlessly suppressed the volcano.
That is definitely not magic power that humans can possess.
At this moment, Victor actually said that he prevented the volcanic eruption.
Even the volcano wouldn't dare think of such a thing!
But, Gwen actually said, Victor, you didn’t lie?
Aubrey looked at everyone's reactions, looked at Victor again, and asked.
"Victor, what is your reason for doing this?"
Victor knew that if he told lies, Gwen would find out.
He didn't think too much and simply told the truth about the volcano.
Sincerity is the greatest nirvana.
"Your Majesty, there is a terrifying monster sealed under the volcano, named 'Gullerton'."
"If this monster is not dealt with now, in a year and a half, the monster will break through the seal and cause the volcano to completely erupt."
"By then, the scale of the natural disaster will be enough to engulf the world."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, stared at Victor and asked:
"So, you killed that monster?"
Victor put his hands on his chest and bowed slightly.
"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."
At this moment, even if Gwen did not come forward to confirm his authenticity.
The mages were all anxious.
"Your Majesty! Don't believe Victor's lies! He must have made up a lie to shirk responsibility!"
"It's pure rumour! How could there be a monster under the volcano! Even if there is, how could Victor himself be able to deal with such a powerful monster?"
"We have all seen the magic at that time. That kind of magical energy is simply not something humans can possess!"
"At least it's not what a third-level mage of Victor's level can do!"
The surrounding mages once again targeted Victor.
"In our opinion, Victor is lying!"
Only a few third-level mages remained silent, including Count Baker.
He lowered his head and looked at the few mages he was friends with around him. They were also looking at Baker at the same time.
At the same time, they remembered the crazy old woman in Sancher Town.
'The legend of the volcano god...is true. '
The king turned to look at Gwen, who nodded, indicating that Victor was not lying.
"Knight Commander Gwen, if I remember correctly, you are engaged to Victor, right?"
The second prince said as he walked out of the crowd.
Gwen was stunned for a moment when she heard his question, and then nodded.
"Even when we went to investigate the volcano, the mage Miss Gwen applied for was Victor."
"And Victor has been missing for seven or eight days. Do you really not know what he did?"
The second prince smiled, but his words were obviously heart-wrenching.
At this time, many mages reacted.
Not to be outdone, Gwen stared at the second prince forcefully and said, "Your Highness, are you questioning me?"
The second prince smiled slightly when he heard this and nodded.
"Please understand that this is reasonable suspicion."
The emperor spoke at this time and said: "Gwen's heart of justice never goes wrong."
The second prince saluted the emperor:
"Father, please allow me to speak frankly. The heart of justice can indeed distinguish the truth from falsehood in other words."
"But who can tell the truth from falsehood in Gwen's words?"
The other mages' eyes suddenly lit up when they heard this.
"Yes! Gwen is Victor's fiancée!"
"I was almost deceived by this insidious couple!"
"What the Second Prince said makes sense, how can we tell the truth in Gwen's words?"
The mages were extremely lucky. If the second prince hadn't suddenly appeared to save the situation, they would have almost been overturned by Victor and his wife.
Sure enough, the second prince was extremely smart.
Gwen opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but faced with the questions raised by the mages around her, she was too anxious to say even a single word. Even her eyes turned red with anger.
As a knight, she can protect her family and country and go into battle to kill enemies.
But if she were to talk, she would never be able to compete with these articulate mages.
"Then, Your Highness, are you questioning my strength?"
At this time, Victor spoke.
He did not look back at the second prince, and none of the mages behind him could clearly see his expression at this time.
The second prince squinted his eyes and smiled, looking at ease.
"Sir Victor, I think everyone here is aware of your talent."
"But in order to hide your actions, you had to make up a so-called monster."
"Sir Victor, you are just a third-level mage."
"Isn't there a lack of thinking in boasting about Haikou like this?"
These words of his are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
With so many third-level mages present, no one would believe that Victor alone prevented the eruption of the volcano.
They couldn't do it, and Victor, who was also a third-level mage, couldn't do it either.
Because the pride of these mages does not allow Victor to be stronger than himself at the same level.
So they won't believe it.
But at this moment, Victor, who was standing where he was, disappeared.
Everyone stared with wide eyes, trying to find any trace of Victor.
But instead, a ball of flame rose into the sky.
"Victor, where have you been?"
In an instant, countless exquisite magic circles were formed above the second prince's head, and they continued to rotate.
The large number made it impossible for all the mages present to see a clear path.
"What...is this formation?"
"Why are the lines so messy...that's not right! The lines are too complicated and cannot be understood at all!"
"What's going on?"
The mages present were all shocked. They tried to stop it and take a closer look, but the temperature in the room suddenly rose sharply.
At this moment, they couldn't even calm down to release their magic power.
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
"Quick... look! Then, is that Victor!?"
A mage pointed to the sky in horror.
Victor's body was bathed in flames, and a flame demon that touched the roof gradually appeared in his body, burning like the sun, dazzlingly dazzling.
The intense heat caused the walls around the hall to begin to burn, and even the ground above the hall began to crack due to the high temperature.
His eyes stared coldly at the second prince, with such condescending pressure that the second prince did not even dare to take a breath.
"You said I'm not strong enough?"
Out of nowhere, the clothes on the second prince ignited a flame.
The smoke gradually rose, but under the strong temperature, he couldn't even feel that he was burning among the flames.
Gwen stood in front of the king, using her enchanted armor to block Victor's blazing light.
"Then let's let our strength speak for itself."
Buzz-buzz-buzz-
Various sounds rang out from countless magic circles, drowning out the doubts of everyone present, and gradually merged.
An unknown mage suddenly looked at the sky in horror and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"That's...fourth level magic!"
