I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Lis looked at Ludwig with a puzzled expression, as if he was reassessing his knowledge of this Golden Dragon.

Although Golden Dragons were one of the strongest among the Dragon Clan, this did not mean they were the strongest in every aspect.

Actually, compared to them, Silver Dragons slightly surpassed Golden Dragons in the talent of spellcasting; Golden Dragons preferred to rely on their formidable physiques.

This was also why Silver Dragons often transformed into the brave companions in legends and tales.

There were also quite a few stories about Golden Dragons within the Human Kingdom, but they mostly existed as rulers, arbiters, and wise men.

Out of their noble disposition, if the person pleading with a Golden Dragon was upright and honest, the Golden Dragon would tend to agree to his request, but one must give it expensive gemstones as recognition of its splendor, for like all Metallic Dragons, the venerable Golden Dragon was both greedy and proud.

It was already quite special that Ludwig took an interest in magic, so why was he considering this now?

And the target was even more peculiar. Why would he set his sights on Mo Yun, a player?

"That girl, she seems quite ordinary?"

Lis pondered as he spoke, genuinely curious about Ludwig's reason for choosing Mo Yun, something unheard of in his previous life.

"She's beautiful!"

Ludwig stated affirmatively, without a hint of hesitation.

"...That's it?"

Lis was somewhat speechless, never expecting this to be the reason why Mo Yun attracted Ludwig.

"Of course!"

Ludwig stroked his chin, his golden hair and golden eyes shining even more dazzlingly in the sunlight.

"Aren't the heroes in those legendary stories all handsome and pretty?"

"I think, as a Golden Dragon with top-tier magic talent, the person I assist naturally can't be inferior."

"Don't all stories end with the brave hero defeating the Demon King or the Evil Dragon, and as time passes, the hero and his companion fall in love!"

"I am a male, so I should find a beauty!"

"More importantly, she indeed gives me a special feeling, I always feel a desire to be close to her."

In the end, Ludwig said with a serious expression, as if he was about to embark on a great enterprise.

A feeling of closeness?

If it had been earlier, Lis would have definitely thought that Ludwig had read too many legends and thus harbored such thoughts.

He had figured out that this guy was naturally a very confident and somewhat chuunibyou dragon, curious about many things besides the arcane.

It made sense, as Golden and Silver Dragons, by virtue of being more amiable towards Humans, often transformed into Humans and roamed the Human Kingdom for their growth before reaching adulthood; their long lives allowed them to understand interesting things and knowledge.

This experience was also part of their growth process.

This was precisely why the legends of Golden and Silver Dragons were the most abundant within the Human Kingdom.

But why Mo Yun?

Could it be because of his own involvement?

Lis felt a headache coming on, pondered briefly, and decided to put the matter aside and observe later on.

Who knows, maybe this guy was just a flash in the pan?

...

The two of them moved quickly, and soon entered Feis's Royal Magic Academy.

The Magic Students they passed by all bowed respectfully to Ludwig, who smiled and nodded in return.

This Golden Dragon seemed quite popular at the academy; one wondered if these people were aware that they stood before a formidable Golden Dragon.

"Welcome, Sir Lis!"

The cold and empty voice was heard again, coming from the Magic Intelligent Life of the First Magic Workshop, though its tone still sounded icy.

Lis felt a stir within him, and a Black Cat, as profound as the night sky, appeared on his shoulder.

The Black Cat clung tightly to the clothes on Lis's shoulder with its tiny paws, curiously eyeing this Legendary Arcanist's Magic Workshop.

The Black Cat usually followed Helen around, and since it couldn't cultivate, it naturally didn't bother accompanying Lis, who stayed in the lab all day.

However, today when it heard that Lis was going to visit Judgement Flame's Magic Workshop, it asked to come along out of curiosity.

Black Cat's creator was the Sphinx, a Legendary Arcanist at the pinnacle. It was quite keen to see for itself the abode of another Legendary Arcanist and compare it to its own temple.

Well, at least for now, the Magic Intelligent Life in Judgement Flame's Magic Workshop was far inferior to it.

Ludwig glanced at the Black Cat with curiosity, was this Lis's Magic Pet?

But why didn't he sense any special aura, it seemed like merely an essence of magic.

During the past few months, Ludwig had familiarized himself with the First Magic Workshop and was about to lead Lis upstairs to find their teacher.

Before he could speak, Mr. Stephens's voice lazily came over.

"Lis is back, come on up."

"Ludwig, continue with today's training, you aren't allowed to stop unless I say so!"

Upon hearing this, Ludwig's expression suddenly fell, but he said nothing and obediently headed toward the basement of the Magic Workshop.

Lis chuckled to himself; was this guy now under special training by his teacher?

He suddenly understood, perhaps this fellow was overwhelmed by Mr. Stephens's special training, so he sought out Mo Yun for something similar.

Do unto others as you would not have them do unto you, right?

Lis shook his head and directly went upstairs.

Upon entering the second floor, he saw Mr. Stephens seated on the sofa, wearing a long blue dressing gown. In front of him was a small table laid with exquisite palace desserts prepared by the Royal Palace's chef and steaming hot tea.
