The streets and alleys of the entire northern border were all covered with red bounty notices.

The portrait on the bounty notice was Victor!

Many wanted notices were even waved in the air, with the heavy snow.

Because the person Victor beat was the great knight guarding the north, Earl Angus.

Rumors have spread among the people that Victor beat Angus into a vegetable, and he has not recovered after a day.

The heir of the Delin family was seriously injured and is still in a coma. This matter has caused a sensation throughout the northern border.

From the gentry of the northern border to the common people.

This matter was quickly spread to the capital by the spies, and in less than half a day, it spread throughout the capital.

The ministers naturally paid special attention to it, after all, this matter was too mysterious.

The fight between Victor and Earl Angus was not the point, but the problem was after this battle.

Victor actually beat Earl Angus.

Of course, it wouldn't be a problem if he won the fight.

But he actually beat the man to a state of insanity!

But insanity can be considered a small matter.

But Angus is Victor's father-in-law!

This, this is fucking...

When this news reached the royal family, Aubrey frowned slightly.

He had never encountered such a distressing thing in decades since he took office.

Aubrey looked at them and waved his hand, and asked:

"Does Gwen know about this?"

"Knight Commander Gwen is on his way."

A minister quickly answered.

After this, the whole court fell into silence for a long time.

In this matter, Victor did go too far.

Generally speaking, nobles who already have opinions about Victor will naturally take advantage of this juncture to smear Victor and pick on Victor.

But the problem is...

Victor is now in the limelight and is deeply loved by the emperor.

Little did they know that the Cravenner family had made trouble in the palace three times, and the old emperor just watched the incident with a smile and never intervened.

He didn't even protect his own son and nephew.

Moreover, the subject that Victor had just proposed some time ago, the thing called "copy", even the emperor himself expressed his full support and expectations.

So in this matter, even if Victor really did something wrong.

No one dared to go up and say that he was wrong.

Emperor Aubrey tapped his fingers wearing a heavy ruby ​​ring on the throne and sighed deeply.

"Angus leads the northern knights and is responsible for guarding the north."

"If he is really insane, then his title can only be inherited by his heir."

At this point, the others were silent again.

Heir?

Angus's heir is about to be beaten into a disabled person. Are you sure he can still inherit Angus's position?

So who can inherit the Delin family in the end?

Angus has three children, among whom Kefla is well known to many people.

As a politician, she is not a knight, and she certainly cannot lead those northern knights.

Who is the only person who is still qualified to inherit the Delin family?

Everyone thought of a name at the same time.

Gwen Delin.

"..."

For a moment, the ministers' faces darkened a lot, and they became more silent, and even their breathing seemed to slow down a lot.

They even wondered if Victor attacked Angus on purpose.

Gwen is Victor's fiancée.

If Gwen inherits the Delin family, then Gwen will marry Victor in the end.

The two earls become a family.

"This..."

Victor's power will become stronger, and if this foundation is obtained by one of the two princes, it is possible to directly lay the foundation for the future throne.

But the problem is...

Victor is the princess's teacher.

And there is another more important problem.

If Victor gets the knight background of the Delin family and becomes powerful, can the future monarch really suppress him?

They are not allowed to think about what will happen next, as it would be disrespectful to the future monarch.

They can no longer think about what is going on in the mind of this old and frail emperor.

"Your Majesty, the knight Gwen has arrived."

An eunuch hurried to the emperor and reported softly.

As soon as the voice fell, Gwen, wearing silver armor, had a slight cold glow.

She held the knight's helmet in her left hand, raised her chest and head, and walked into the hall with a proud look.

"Your Majesty."

All the ministers present focused their eyes on Gwen, but felt a cold majesty and awe from her.

His face was gloomyIncomparable, her eyebrows seemed to be covered with the extremely cold frost of the northern border.

She stood in front of the emperor and bowed slightly.

The emperor waved his hand indifferently and said lightly:

"Gwen, you should know about the northern affairs."

Victor's wanted order spread throughout the north overnight, and countless knights were searching for his whereabouts.

She had learned about this from Kefla's reply.

Gwen did not respond, but obviously, everyone knew that the knight knew everything.

The emperor looked at her and continued to ask;

"You are Victor's fiancée. Logically, this matter should be handled as a family matter, and I can't intervene."

Then, Aubrey snorted and laughed twice.

"However, after this incident, can you and Victor really keep this engagement?"

As soon as these words came out, many people couldn't help but think about the emperor's intentions.

He was letting Gwen make a choice.

Now you are Victor's fiancée.

Your fiancé beat your father. This is your family affair and it has not risen to a more serious level.

But if your engagement is cancelled.

Then, it is Victor who maliciously joined the northern barbarians to attack the northern knight Angus.

The empire can naturally send troops to capture Victor.

At that time, the royal family will investigate this matter thoroughly.

And after that, the engagement between the two will naturally not be maintained.

Angus can't wake up, and his heir is seriously injured and disabled.

Gwen returned to the North to become her earl and guard the North instead of her father.

As for Victor?

As long as the charges are not established, he is still the earl and the princess's teacher.

It seems that the emperor is still rational, although his life can indeed intimidate Victor.

But the future monarch may not be able to control two earls with military strength.

Many people thought about the emperor's deep meaning.

Then it depends on Gwen's choice.

Gwen responded without even a moment's hesitation.

Her expression did not change, as if she was narrating a trivial matter.

"Your Majesty, I come here to ask you to resign from my position as the Royal Knight Commander."

As soon as these words came out, the entire palace was filled with shock and a wave of shock.

Gwen herself has extremely strong strength and excellent ability, and the position of Knight Commander was even appointed by the emperor.

But now, she actually plans to resign?

Is she really planning to go home and inherit the inheritance! ?

The emperor smiled when he heard Gwen's answer.

"Oh? Tell me about it."

Gwen's face was cold.

"Victor is my fiancé. As long as he doesn't plan to cancel it, our engagement will still be valid."

"So, I will find him in person and ask him everything."

The justice in her heart makes her never cover up for anyone. Once Gwen finds out that this matter is really Victor's fault, then...

"I will challenge him, even if I can't defeat him at all."

Gwen's eyes are absolutely firm and unwavering.

"Even if I die at his hands."

Act for justice and be responsible for goodness.

Gwen is just, but her justice is never stubborn and absolute.

She will not judge others' good or bad, good or evil based on appearance.

Everything in the world has two sides, and she is willing to sacrifice her life for all injustice.

This is the little justice in Gwen's heart.

After saying this, she ignored the horrified eyes of the people around her, just dragged the heavy armor, and bowed deeply to the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Gwen turned around and slowly walked out of the hall. The bright but scorching light shone on Gwen's armor, flashing brightly.

At this moment, Gwen was like an angel who was cleansing the dust.

More like a stubborn beast, slowly walking towards the depths of a ray of light.

Just to implement that --

justice in my heart.

.......

The wind and snow in the north are icy cold after all.

Vega curled up his feathers dissatisfiedly. Even though he was not afraid of the severe cold, the violent wind always made his feathers messy.

Damn Victor was even unwilling to give him a windproof magic, even though he had helped Victor so much.

Suddenly, Victor stopped in the blizzard.

"Hey, why don't you leave?"

Vega shouted dissatisfiedly, but Victor ignored his tearing cry and just looked ahead quietly.

It was extremely dark in the distance, and under the snow and wind, there seemed to be a tribe with burning lights.

In this remote place with howling cold winds, there were actually places to set up camps and light fires.

The bright red flag was raised, with a giant sword burning with flames.

Vega also saw the village in the distance and was a little curious.

"Look at the flag above, that's the territory of [Flame Sword]."

Victor said lightly.

[Flame Sword] is one of the two largest barbarian tribes in the Far North.

This group of people is distributed in remote border areas. They are followers of the Flame Giant, the terrifying giant with demigod power.

They always believe in endless struggles and the power of burning flames.

As believers of the Flame Giant, the barbarians have the power to not fear the cold and fire because of the favor of the ancient giant.

This is why these barbarians can continue to live here for many years.

"It looks like just a small branch tribe."

Vega said with narrowed eyes.

"Barbarians are not good things, but I need them to find a way for me."

Victor said lightly, and a white formation suddenly formed under his feet, and a floating magic acted on him.

Victor slowly floated above the tribe.

At this time, Victor could see more clearly.

The tribe below was constantly burning with flames, and many animal skins were piled together. Even the roofs of the houses were made of furs stitched together with various animal skins.

Victor slowly pinched a red formation in his hand, chanting obscure spells.

Soon, a striking and terrifying red flame appeared between the clouds.

The heroism and high temperature seemed to burn the entire sky.

[Fourth-level magic: Burning the sky]

In an instant, the wind and snow above the tribe gradually stopped, replaced by an incomparable heat.

Giant flaming pythons kept falling from the sky, bombarding the huge village.

Suddenly, the flames ignited half of the sky, and the entire earth began to crack.

A large group of men with weapons came out of the tribe. They were covered with red hair, like uncivilized beasts.

They gathered together, mumbling something to Victor in the sky.

Victor waved his finger, and a ferocious giant python of fire suddenly fell towards the crowd.

Endless flames suddenly engulfed the crowd.

Groups of barbarians were burning with flames, running in all directions, trying to put out the flames on their bodies.

But, it was useless after all.

As the barbarians turned into charcoal one by one and fell in the wind and snow, the whole village fell into silence.

Only the crackling sound of the flames burning the buildings could be heard.

Victor looked at the tragic scene, slowly fell down, and stared at a barbarian shivering in the flames.

He curled up in the flames, staring at Victor, with endless fear in his eyes.

And those flames seemed not to burn him at all.

Victor looked at him coldly and said slowly;

"Lucky to find you in the first tribe."

"A qualified person for the temple."
