Staring at the coolly dressed woman in front of her, various speculations flashed through Liya's mind.
Who is this woman?
Why is it in the garden?
And what's going on with the clouds under her? He looks very handsome.
"Her name is Kokot, Kokot Yad, the former councilor of the Mage City."
Victor appeared behind Liya and said.
Listening to Victor's explanation, Liya became even more confused.
A former member of the Council of Mages?
In other words, Victor's status as a member of parliament replaced this woman?
What's the relationship between these two people?
Kokot was sleeping soundly. He turned his head and the pointed ears on both sides were exposed in front of Liya.
Looking at the slender ears, Liya felt very familiar.
she blurted out.
"Elves?"
After all, Liya has had lots of dealings with elves.
This lazy elf is lying on the clouds and sleeping soundly, which seems to give people the illusion that she is isolated from the world.
But the point is not at all here, but why did Victor bring back an elf woman?
Liya raised her head and looked at Victor with a little evil look in her eyes.
"So, what happened to her?"
"You went to the mage capital and brought back such a new love?"
"Oh, I really feel bad for Gwen."
Victor listened to Liya's ridicule and said calmly:
"She is a fourth-level mage."
"Right now, you're working for me."
Liya's unkind eyes suddenly recovered, and her eyes seemed to be filled with a little calculation.
"I see. You should have told me earlier."
"I will definitely take good care of her..."
As if he felt something, Kokot shook his ears, sat up in a daze and rubbed his eyes:
"Hmm~?"
Kokot let out a protracted sound of doubt, smiled silly towards Victor, and then like a puppet that had lost its strings, it fell towards the clouds again.
flutter!
"Huhuhu~"
Close your eyes and fall asleep again.
Liya: "..."
Can such a lazy elf really be used as a tool?
Victor didn't explain too much to Liya.
In effect, Kokot was homeless.
After losing his status as a councilor, Kokot can also live in Endymion for a long time.
However, Victor blew up the first three floors of Endymion, causing the area with the most stable natural energy to disappear in the long river of history.
Without such a place, Kokot couldn't sleep well.
Every time I managed to fall asleep, I felt like there were ants crawling all over my body, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
Just follow Victor to the empire and become a mascot in the Cravena family.
Anyway, she is no longer a member of the parliament, and the restoration of Endymion has nothing to do with her. Now Kokot feels extremely free.
I even slept better in the garden.
After Victor gained the status of earl, he was qualified to recruit his own private soldiers in the royal capital.
Public or private, there is no problem.
Victor said calmly to Liya:
"When she wakes up, remember to ask her to sign a contract of prostitution in my name."
After all, the Cravenna family doesn't support idlers, and Kokot still needs to work when he wakes up.
Liya nodded and watched Victor walk into the mansion as he left.
…
In the study room, Victor walked to the bookshelf and looked at it carefully.
He opened the cabinet door and pulled out a thick book.
This is a book that records some myths from history, and the things it tells are related to the former 'gods'.
Soon, Victor turned to the page he needed.
"The Scales of Justice."
Aurelion told Victor exactly what happened to her in the magic library.
Also included was the incident where she saw the scales.
There is a scale in Endymion's magic library, and Victor already knew it.
It was not a true creation of the gods, but an ancient forgery.
History has this to say about Lady Justice:
The justice of the Goddess of Justice is absolute, and all evil and filth deemed by her will be wiped out by her, leaving no hope of escape.
Use the scale in your hand to measure the hearts of the world, and place your dagger to punish evildoers on one side of the scale.
According to legend, the dagger is as heavy as a cloud.
And the human heart, which is contaminated by malice, will have the extra weight of resentment.
Once the scale tilts towards the heart.
The goddess of justice will kill the evil ones without mercy.
Since the birth of human civilization, she has protected humans on the continent. She has always believed that humans can achieve absolute justice and absolute fairness in her heart.
But what humans have done over a long period of time has gradually disappointed the Goddess of Justice... Then there is a more familiar story, the Goddess of Justice left the world.
But in fact.
Victor thought about the scales stored in the magic library.
According to legend, the Archmage was dissatisfied with the behavior of the Lady of Justice, stole a trace of her divine power, and made this hypocritical scale.
In this way, the divine will of the Goddess of Justice is weakened, and the number of extreme believers of the Goddess of Justice is reduced through the counterfeit scales. People who are full of absolute justice are eventually replaced by hypocrites.
In the end, the goddess who was completely disappointed with mankind left the world.
But her departure made people in the world breathe a sigh of relief.
Because absolute justice should not appear in a society composed of humans.
Hypocrites are equally kind and just, but they will not fall into the whirlpool called 'extreme justice'.
Therefore, the Archmage used this imitation scale to establish a Council of Mages based on morality.
'Hypocrisy is also a kind of justice. '
Vega next to him asked.
"Are you interested in Lady Justice?"
"We are just preparing in advance for the crises we may face in the future."
Victor closed the book.
In the magic library, some players will be attracted by the 'Hypocrisy's Scale'.
If some players' sense of justice reaches more than 80 points, then they will learn a new passive skill.
【Hypocritical heart】
As long as you uphold justice and morality in your heart, you will be blessed by the will of ancient mankind.
For players, the powerful effect of this skill can increase the values of their character attributes by 10%, lasting for an entire battle.
Of course, how can a real scale not be as good as a fake?
If the player can join the Church of the Lady of Justice and join the remaining members of the Ultra-Justice Alliance.
They will also be blessed by the goddess of justice in the void.
The condition is that the justice value reaches 100.
【justice】.
But this justice is extremely extreme.
In order to promote complete justice, they even resort to cruel violence and torture to achieve the ruthless expansion of their thoughts and will.
People who believe in the goddess are so serious that they only have a single and absolute distinction between good and evil, without any emotion.
Victor narrowed his eyes because he was very familiar with this power.
"A heart of justice."
That's right.
When Gwen hadn't grown up yet.
The goddess of justice has already set her sights on this natural believer of hers.
........
It is golden and bright, with silk hanging to the floor and silver curtains hanging on both sides behind the door.
The second prince was sitting on the soft sofa, with no one around him.
He was very happy, not just because Victor's actions today slapped Jess Reiser in the face in the palace.
Jace belongs to his stupid royal brother faction, and Victor did this by telling the eldest prince directly.
No matter what your relationship is with me, but because of your men.
We have settled this grudge.
Of course, although Victor would never support him, at least he didn't slap him in the face in public.
He and the imperial brother still competed fairly, nothing changed.
Even if he becomes enemies with Victor, he has to devote part of his energy to considering Victor's existence.
but......
"Victor became a member of the Magic Parliament. Who would have thought of this?"
The second prince seemed to be chatting with the servants around him, but there was no one around.
On the surface, the status of a member of parliament is definitely greater than that of Jess Reiser.
And this parliamentary status will also lead to the fact that even if the eldest prince really wants to marry Liya, he must consider Victor's status as a parliamentarian.
Marrying the sister of an earl and marrying the sister of a mage councilor are two different concepts.
"Victor always surprises me."
"Jace Reiser must be extremely angry right now because of jealousy."
The second prince burst out laughing, his body trembling continuously, and he was laughing a little crazy.
This is his second happy place.
Soon, the second prince seemed to have changed. He put away his smile, returned to his usual indifference, and said with a smile:
“Jealousy can bring up a lot of different emotions, so I love this wonderful jealousy.”
"Get ready, Greed."
"It's time for us to meet our new partners."
…
Jace Lesser walked down the street with a group of guards behind him.
His eyes became red with anger, and he wanted to go home directly in the carriage, but the anger in his heart that could not be vented made him unable to go back.
As the heir to the family, Jace needs to remain calm at all times.
So Jess Reiser took a carriage and came to Dongcheng District. His instinctive anger induced him to vent.
He was looking for Victor's prop shop.
The shop that only sells blue potions.
He had been here a few days ago, setting a trap for Victor to sign a contract that seemed to provide benefits, so that they would incur losses.
But Victor didn't want to agree to those families at all.
Jess is a businessman, but he also knows how to play a difficult customer.
He walked to the prop shop, intending to pretend to be a customer and deliberately cause some trouble in the shop.
But before he could go in, he saw Hernie appearing at the door.
Hernie neatly arranged bottles of blue potions on the counter at the entrance of the store to replenish the empty spaces of the goods that had just been purchased.
Instinct made Jace want to step forward and vent his anger on this rustic-looking girl.
But after a few seconds, cold sweat broke out on his forehead and fell drop by drop to the dust on the ground.
"No, something's wrong..."
"What's wrong with me?"
The anger quickly dissipated from his mind, and Jace suddenly calmed down.
He was no longer jealous, his brain felt as if it had been suddenly washed by clear water, and his IQ and reason were back to their peak.
"What have I done..."
Jess Reiser covered his head and carefully thought about what he had done in the past few days.
He constantly targeted the Cravenna family, and even went to the house to marry the eldest prince without his permission.
Jace's body trembled slightly, and he suddenly realized the serious consequences he had caused.
He quickly said to the guards behind him.
"Hurry, go home! Bring the carriage over!"
"I need to go back to my father immediately!"
After that, Jace quickly left the scene with his escort.
However, Heni didn't notice this at all.
At this time, she was still a little upset, after all, she had heard a lot about Miss Liya recently.
And there are always several families who come to ask about this and that, often mentioning to her cooperation that she doesn't understand at all.
Hermione was a little angry.
Suddenly, she blinked, confused.
The blue medicine bottle that had just been placed on the counter had a touch of red attached to it.
But the red color made her look abnormal, like impurities clinging to the mouth of the bottle.
"This is……?"
Before she could take another look, a voice sounded in her ears.
"Little girl, you are much more beautiful than that man just now."
"I appreciate your little anger. How about we work together? Believe me, we can definitely do something big!"
