Growlanser III The dual darkness
Although Victor is an important figure in the spacetime fusion project, he doesn’t seem interested in traveling to another world through this project.
When the enemy troops attacked the Magic Barrier Generator, he asked the Featherian Queen to continue this project without him, then Victor immediately headed for Magic Barrier Generator No. 3 to ensure the project can run safely.
After the space-time fusion project was completed, he asked for the next research location and research theme, So he joined the party at the invitation of Annette who would provide a research site and asked to find a way to grow plants with minimal sunlight.
However, even when the party is disbanded, there is no special event for him, and player can only increase his affection by requesting item creation. Each item creation request requires story progress for one mission, and development will stop while Victor himself is added to the party.
On a mission in collaboration with Kenneth‘s troops, Victor made a communication device so Kenneth’s troops and Slayn’s party could work together remotely.
He asked Slayn and the party to check the Central Gate. After that, he played an important role in activating transgates in various areas that required him to be in a party when the party visited the transgate for the first time.
On a mission to infiltrate the library located in Bibliostock, Victor actively volunteered himself to become a party member.
He played an important role in making a homunculus body for Slayn which was one of the conditions for getting all good endings.
