Chapter 510 - 373: The Secret Legacy of the Kane Family—Azela Floating City_3
Joyce felt somewhat sentimental, a rare occurrence.
Ever since he broke through to become a Legendary Mage, few things could disturb his composure.
Lis suddenly wanted to comfort Uncle Joyce but was at a loss as to where to start.
He couldn’t simply say that it wasn’t Joyce’s fault, could he? Saying that just seemed odd.
Fortunately, the sadness of the mighty Joyce was fleeting, and he could now face it all with equanimity.
Especially after discovering just how outstanding Lis was, he seemed to have transferred all his feelings for Brandon onto Lis.
"Afterward, I stayed with the Kane family to take care of you as you grew up. I truly did not expect your Talent to be so exceptional, Lis."
"Perhaps it’s through the accumulation of Knowledge over time that your Talent has been developed."
Faced with Joyce’s remarks, Lis could only smile awkwardly, taking it as an acknowledgment. He didn’t expect Joyce to rationalize it for him like this.
Truly, he used to be a complete novice!
Lis didn’t know that Joyce had previously examined his body and found no issues, naturally eliminating any suspicion.
With a wave of Joyce’s hand, a map appeared on the table in front of them.
Lis recognized it at a glance; he was very familiar with this map, mainly depicting the Treasure Pearl Sea and its surrounding regions.
Near the southeastern side of the Pearl Sea outer sea, close to the Endless Ocean, was a striking silver cross star symbol, marked with "Wave Island," and the name "Azela" was also written beside it.
"This is the Kane family’s Hidden legacy and the Secret we have been guarding."
"Now it’s all yours, and from here on, you are the clan leader of the Kane family."

Joyce’s face broke into a smile, and he spoke with a touch of emotion.
Lis was digesting this information, his heart inevitably filling with excitement.
At last, he knew the location of the Azela Floating City.
"Little Lis, don’t get too excited."
Uncle Joyce glanced at Lis and reminded him with a smile:
"As I mentioned, without the Strength of a Legendary Mage, you cannot take control of that Floating City."
"I won’t hide it from you; after breaking through to Legendary, I also revisited the Floating City for exploration, but ultimately, I was still barred from the core control room."
"Guarding the outside of the core control room were two Magic Energy Structures, also known as Demon Statues."
"Except, those were of Legendary Level."
Hiss~
Lis took a sharp intake of breath, contributing to the warming of Gaia World.
How Risa managed to seize control of the Azela Floating City, Lis was not sure, as this wasn’t part of the game narrative in his previous life nor was there any side quest that mentioned such intelligence.
When the Azela Floating City appeared, it was already completely under the control of Risa, who assumed the name Azela.
So Lis knew nothing about the current internal situation of the Azela Floating City. He really didn’t expect such protective Strength to exist.
No wonder Joyce hadn’t taken control of the Floating City yet.
"Who knows if there are other special arrangements after those two Legendary Demon Statues. Without the Strength of a Legendary Mage, one would definitely not be able to control the Floating City."
"Once you’re in charge of your territory, come with me to the Floating City. I’ll take you to familiarize yourself with the situation there."
"After that, it’s up to you. Whenever you break through to Legendary, you can try to take control of the Floating City."
Joyce said with a smile, not considering the possibility that Lis might fail to break through to Legend.
With the big boss saying that, what was there to hesitate about? Just do it!
Lis nodded earnestly and confidently said:
"I understand, Uncle Joyce. I will not disappoint you."
Joyce looked at Lis’s self-assured and youthful smile, as if he was seeing the shadow of Brandon.
Youth is wonderful!
Joyce exclaimed, considering that as a Legendary Strongman of only around fifty years old, he was also quite young among his peers.
All of a sudden, Lis remembered something and asked Joyce:
"Uncle Joyce, do you mean to go to my territory together?"
Previously, he had wanted to ask for Joyce’s opinion, but now it seemed...
"Of course!"
After discussing formal matters, Joyce, not sure from where, brought out an already opened bottle of exquisite wine, poured a cup for himself, and then poured another fresh cup for Lis.
"I am the butler of the Kane family, naturally, I should follow where the family goes."
After all, with Shadow Doppelgangers adventuring outside, it made little difference where he was. Staying with Lis wasn’t bad either.
He had also gotten used to the leisurely life of a butler.
Lis quickly nodded with gratitude; with such a strong personality staying in the Danerluo Port territory, there was less need to worry about its security.
Moreover, in Lis’s plans, he would not spend most of his time in his territory.
There were many Hidden treasures buried through countless time waiting for Lis’s presence!
Having learned about the Kane family’s Hidden legacy from Joyce, Lis felt an even greater urgency to enhance his Strength.
Since he leveled up using Experience Points, he did not have to worry about failing to break through to Legendary and dying, as his father did.
It was time to seize the moment. Although his Strength had already been improving rapidly, the stronger he became, the broader his horizons expanded, allowing him to uncover more World Secrets.
Now that he had been granted the title of Duke by King Morton and the territory of the Luou Peninsula, there was much Lis needed to prepare.
In fact, Lis had received many invitations to noble parties in the last few days, as many people wanted to get to know the newly appointed hotshot Duke.
