I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Jade City,

A slender figure appeared in front of Lis and the others, and a surprised voice sounded:

"Lis?"

Lis naturally recognized who was calling him.

The silver-haired elf girl before him was none other than the Moon Elf Daphne Gladys!

She looked at Lis with a hint of surprise and hurried over, waving her hand.

"Hello, Daphne."

Lis nodded and greeted the Moon Elf girl.

Daphne's identity was a bit special; hence, Lis had paid more attention to her before.

However, he hadn't expected her to still be in Jade City; had she not said she was only visiting Jade City for a while before returning to Elf Land?

"It's been a long time, Lis!"

Daphne approached Lis, greeting him joyfully as if she were meeting an old friend she hadn't seen in ages.

"Oh, hello, Cecil!"

It seemed she had just noticed Cecil following behind Lis, and Daphne greeted her as well.

"Hello, Daphne."

Because of her mother's passing, Cecil's mood had been quite somber.

So, Cecil just barely greeted Daphne before bowing her head and saying no more.

Originally, after arriving in Jade City, Lis had intended to first take Cecil to her father; he and Mil could handle the following matters themselves.

But Cecil had refused Lis's suggestion, insisting on doing something, contributing anything she could to future vengeance, even if she knew it was very unlikely that she would be of any help.

It would make her feel a bit better.

Lis did not refuse; perhaps being busy would temporarily help Cecil forget her sorrowful past.

As for her father Igley, Lis would accompany Cecil on a visit there.

After all, the Elf Sword Saint had entrusted him with protecting Cecil; the events of this journey had to be reported to him.

Lis believed that as long as his goal was to thwart the plot of Demon Prince Demogorgon, he would definitely receive the support of the Elf Sword Saint.

How could Igley accept that his deeply beloved wife had perished in the destruction of the Elf Royal Court?

From Igley's actions in past lives, it was clear how much he valued his family.

However, the biggest difference from past lives was that Cecil had survived, which was great fortune for this future Legendary Sword Master.

"Daphne, why are you here?"

Lis nodded and smiled as he asked:

"I remember Cendelle saying you were only staying in Jade City for a while before you had to return."

"Of course, there's a reason, and it's related to you."

Daphne nodded and said happily.

In her view, being able to stay in Jade City for a few more days was a good thing, as there were many novel things here that weren't available back in Elf Land.

"Related to me?"

Lis was somewhat surprised; could it be related to the affairs of the Elf Royal Court?

But seeing Daphne looking so cheerful, it seemed she was still unaware that the Elf Royal Court had been utterly destroyed.

As soon as they entered Jade City, Lis had noticed something off about the city's atmosphere,

Many people showed expressions of tension and urgency, especially those well-informed merchant travelers.

It seemed the events at the Elf Royal Court had already been secretly spreading.

But of course, it was an event that could affect the entire Gaia World; there was no way to keep such news hidden.

But what good would it do for Daphne to find him?

Lis was puzzled, seeing her carefree, joyful expression; she likely didn't know about the Elf Royal Court, did she?

Or could it be something else?

Wait, could it be...

Lis suddenly realized something and was about to inquire when Daphne spoke.

"Lis, Sister Adela has been looking for you!"

"Hehe! I told her I knew you, and at first, Sister Adela didn't believe me; it was only after Sister Cendelle spoke that she believed me."

Daphne said happily and then pulled on Lis, attempting to head east.

For some reason, Daphne suddenly felt much closer to Lis, as if there was something about him that made her instinctively want to be near him.

Lis stood still, unmoved, even as she tugged persistently.

But what had he heard?

Sister Adela?

Lis could be sure this Adela was the Elf Great Sage, Legendary Strongman Adela from Elf Land.

She was one of the strongest elves on the Fanor Continent, not at all inferior to his teacher "Judgement Flame" Stephens.

Currently, although this Elf Great Sage might be inconspicuous, in the future "Abyss Invasion" expansion, she would consistently stand at the forefront of the battlefield, killing countless Abyss Demons.

Even several Legendary Rank Abyss Demons fell by her hand.

She was also the possessor of the Legendary Talent "Heart of the Forest."

Was this dignitary now in Jade City?

And it seemed she had come specifically for him.

His previous guess was correct; the matters within the Elf Royal Court had been reported to Goddess Fenrir by him. After Demogorgon left, the Elf Gods urgently needed to know exactly what had happened in the Elf Royal Court.

At this moment, Lis became exceedingly significant.

And being the Great Sage of the Elf Kingdom, Adela was responsible for communicating with the Elf Gods.

So, it wasn't impossible that the Elf Gods had asked her to find Lis.

Realizing this, Lis no longer resisted:

"Is it the Elf Great Sage Adela?"
