I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 660 - 430 A Somewhat Special Daphne_2

Chapter 660: Chapter 430: A Somewhat Special Daphne_2 Chapter 660 -430: A Somewhat Special Daphne_2 While enjoying the food, Lis, Cendelle, and Daphne talked about some of their experiences during the journey.

Daphne seemed to really like this fruit wine. After drinking a bit more, her little face turned red, and she soon fell asleep on Cendelle’s lap.

Cendelle looked at Daphne somewhat helplessly.

The alcohol content in this fruit wine was very low, which is why she did not restrict Daphne.

But unexpectedly, Daphne got drunk anyway. It seems that she shouldn’t be allowed to drink in the future.

After thinking for a moment, Cendelle said to Lis,

“I actually wanted to invite you to my place today, but with Daphne like this, it might not be possible.”

“Her elder is there too. Earlier, they mentioned wanting to thank you.”

“No worries, I’ll visit another time when I’m free!”

“Aren’t Daphne and the others staying in Jade City for a while longer?”

Lis waved his hand and said with a smile.

During the conversation, Cendelle did not avoid Lis and briefly shared some details about Daphne.

Daphne came from the secret realm of Elf Land in the Elf Kingdom, and her identity was not ordinary. Being a Moon Elf, she seemed to be highly regarded and was closely watched, which is why she snuck out this time.

Cendelle found it strange when she learned that Lis was going to the Elf Royal Court, given that the Elf Royal Court must have been in trouble; otherwise, they wouldn’t have sealed themselves off.

However, such matters, if the Elf Royal Court did not request help from Jade City, Jade City couldn’t intervene directly.

To her surprise, Lis had decided to go with the Illiser family’s team to enter the Elf Royal Court.

Cendelle could only warn Lis to be careful, as she wasn’t able to share too much about the internal disputes of the Elf Kingdom with him.

Lis had been prepared for this and took the moment to thank Cendelle for her concern.

On the way to Cecil’s house, Lis pondered over what Cendelle had said.

For some reason, Lis always felt it was odd how Cendelle talked about Daphne, as if Daphne’s status was sensitive, and certain things weren’t convenient to discuss with Lis.

And although Cendelle had a good relationship with Daphne, she seemed to regard her highly.

It made sense; from his prior interactions with Daphne, she referred to Elf Great Sage Adela as her sister—an absolute strongman in legends, an emissary of the Elf Gods. Daphne’s status was certainly not ordinary.

Moreover, whenever Lis interacted with Daphne, he always felt an inexplicable attraction from this Elf girl.

Lis could confirm that this feeling was not lustful, and although the Moon Elf Daphne was indeed youthful and beautiful, his soul had been well-tempered and was not so easily swayed.

Indeed, Daphne, this Elf girl, was very special!

However, Lis wasn’t currently focused on exploring this; the issues at the Elf Royal Court were more urgent.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lis headed towards Cecil’s place.

When Lis saw Cecil, the girl’s eyes were red as if she had just cried.

“Is something wrong?”

Lis paused for a moment before asking.

“It’s all right now, let’s head back,”

Cecil shook her head and said to Lis.

She hadn’t seen her father for a long time and today, she finally had the chance to have a good talk with her father, Igley.

After telling her father, Igley, about the events at the Elf Royal Court and the preparations by Elder Ricardo, Igley was very worried.

Clearly, someone was targeting the Illiser family in the shadows, and Cecil was completely caught up in it.

Igley wanted Cecil to stay in Jade City and not go to the Elf Royal Court.

But Cecil refused.

Although she knew her father was acting for her benefit, Cecil felt that this wouldn’t solve the problem.

Having already been attacked on the road from Nelin City to Acot City, it meant she had been targeted by those people.

If someone dared to take action in the Elf Royal Court, how could they give up just because of Jade City or her father’s sake?

Of course, if Igley stayed by Cecil’s side all the time, there would be no problem.

After all, the title of Gale Sword Saint was a title Igley had earned fighting with his sword, but strength alone could not solve everything.

Otherwise, how could those Legendary Strongmen of the Elf Royal Court be helpless and passively beaten in the face of such sudden events?

Cecil did not want to delay her father’s affairs by making him stay with her all the time.

Moreover, she felt that the serious and cautious attitude of Ricardo throughout the journey proved that this elder of the Illiser Family was indeed doing his best to protect them.

After all, with so many attacks happening upon the Sun Elves, the Illiser Family was now focusing all its energy on ensuring their safety.

So, Cecil felt that going to the Elf Royal Court should ensure their safety.

The Elf Royal Court, being the most important place in the Elf Kingdom, surely couldn’t have problems, right?

Apart from that, another reason Cecil persuaded Igley was to visit her mother who lived at the Elf Royal Court.

Although her father’s resistance had granted Cecil the precious freedom, Igley’s wife, Cecil’s mother Ariana, had not had such a chance.

She had to stay in the Elf Royal Court to maintain the dignity of the Illiser family.

For her husband and daughter’s safety, Ariana eventually chose to comply with the family’s demands.

Igley had the chance to see Ariana at the Elf Royal Court only occasionally, and Cecil had not seen her mother since she left the Elf Royal Court.

Cecil missed her mother very much; this was also why she was not much resistant to going to the Elf Royal Court in Jonor City this time.

Igley, reluctantly, had to respect Cecil’s choice.

Although many things had happened that made Igley very concerned, the Illiser family as one of the three major Sun Elf families in the Elf Kingdom was still quite strong.

Otherwise, he would not have struggled so much in his resistance before.

After giving several pieces of advice to Cecil, Igley turned to Lis and said,

“Mr. Lis, I am entrusting Cecil’s matter to you.”

For Lis, although there had been some embarrassing misunderstandings before, Igley still trusted Lis’s abilities.

More importantly, Cecil’s high evaluation of Lis had somewhat made Igley a little uncomfortable.

“Of course.”

Lis nodded, not saying much else.

Frankly speaking, the most eventful and opportunistic place in the entire Elf Kingdom was Jade City. Lis remembered that in his previous life, almost all the plots involving the Elf Kingdom were related to Jade City.

Jade City was also where Lis had stayed the longest, so he was quite familiar with Igley, the leader of the Elf Guard, and getting on good terms with him was quite beneficial to some of Lis’s future plans.

However, in his previous life, Igley was not as usual, perhaps because his wife, Ariana, and his daughter, Cecil, both died due to the destruction of the Elf Royal Court, almost becoming his obsession later on.

All Lis could do was to protect Cecil as much as possible.

Frankly, Lis was somewhat pessimistic about the current situation of the Elf Royal Court.

From any perspective, under Demogorgon’s scheming, the destruction of the Elf Royal Court was almost irredeemable.

Especially since the legendary vampire Benfica appeared in the Bolin Kingdom and attacked him and Angela, many signs indicated that he was related to the anomaly at the Elf Royal Court.

But with Benfica leaving the Elf Royal Court to appear in the Bolin Kingdom, was Demogorgon’s plot against the Elf Royal Court nearing its end?

Lis always felt like a corner of the curtain on Demogorgon’s plan was being lifted before him, but there seemed to be some greater horror hidden behind the curtain.

Lis did not discuss these matters with Igley, but just walked with Cecil toward the Illiser family’s residence.
