Chapter 753 -475: Senator Lis_2
It remains unclear whether he, as a wavering light believer, could gain the recognition of the divine spirits to use Elf Divine Skill.
As for the last effect, “Sage’s Final Journey,” once the wearer dies, their soul will be led by Goddess Fenrir into Her Divine Country.
To Lis, this is utterly meaningless.
He has no desire to enter the Divine Country of that deity and become a prayer who ceaselessly contributes the power of faith for tens of thousands of years.
Even in death, having his soul fall into the Endless Abyss and be reborn as a demon seems preferable to becoming a prayer.
Of course, the best outcome would be not to die at all, and as Lis’s strength continually grows, so does his confidence in himself.
Overall, the “Elf Sage’s Laurel Leaf Crown,” this legendary accessory, is quite useful for Lis and could become a trump card for saving his life.
However, it is clear that the “Elf Sage’s Laurel Leaf Crown” is not as powerful as the “Sphinx’s Wisdom,” another legendary accessory.
This makes Lis even more curious about what the “Sphinx’s Wisdom” would be like when its seals are fully lifted.
Receiving a legendary equipment for nothing has put Lis in a good mood.
He feels no guilt whatsoever, as compared to the changes his actions have brought to the Elf Clan, a single piece of legendary equipment is nothing.
Having said that, he’s now acquired two legendary-level accessories, yet not a single legendary piece of equipment.
Even a legendary wand would be nice!
Lis makes a note of this and plans to recall later where he might find a legendary wand that suits him.
By the time Lis snaps back to the present, the ceremony is drawing to a close.
The Elf Sage’s Honour Awarding Ceremony appears quite solemn and elaborate to Lis, involving not only the initial grant but also prayers to the Elf Gods and offerings.
All these are overseen by Julian, and Lis is happy to stand aside like a post.
However, to the onlookers, Lis, draped in the Windwalker’s cloak and donning the bay leaf crown, appears calm, showing no sign of self-congratulatory pleasure; it seems as though all this means little to him.
Looking at Lis’s handsome face and his indifferent air, a unique and exalted sense of detachment arises in the hearts of the observers, involuntarily inspiring awe in them.
It is at this moment that Julian speaks up:
“I am glad to announce on this solemn occasion that Lord Lis Kain has become the Elf Kingdom’s new Elf Sage.”
“This is a fortunate event for the entire Elf Kingdom, and Sage Lis will join us in erasing the misfortunes of the past!”
Julian’s expression is somber as he stands on the high altar, looking down at everyone below.
It is now that the amiable elder elf reveals the dignified aura that he possesses.
“Now, here, as the Councilman of Jade City’s Elf Council, I formally declare Sage Lis will join the Elf Council of Jade City!”
“Let us hope that with the effort of us all, and under the protection of the Elf Gods, the future of Jade City will be even more glorious!”
Lis, standing next to Joey, blinks in surprise at this.
He wonders why there are so many unexpected developments at today’s ceremony, and why none of them were discussed with him in advance.
Becoming a member of Jade City’s Elf Council?
For Lis, it carries more symbolic than actual significance.
After all, the support that Jade City has already provided “Nature’s Wrath” is quite substantial, and Lis’s becoming a council member wouldn’t change much.
But it is also a gesture of goodwill from Jade City’s Elf Council, and Lis has no reason to refuse.
When the crowd below hears this, there is no significant reaction.
In their eyes, if Lis can become an Elf Sage of the Elf Kingdom, then his becoming a council member of Jade City’s Elf Council is not something to be considered exaggerated.
Julian smiles faintly; of course, this decision was not made on a whim.
Before today, the Elf Council had already decided to invite Lis to join as a member, they just hadn’t settled on how to announce it.
Watching Lis conversing with the representative of the Church of the Gods, Julian is amazed to find that despite being a relatively young human, Lis is extremely mature and sensible in his considerations, resulting in an outcome that is welcomed both by the Elf Kingdom and the Church of the Gods.
Perhaps for this reason, Julian appreciates Lis even more and is willing to give him further support.
Announcing this decision on this occasion is also to help Lis establish his credibility and status even faster.
After Julian’s pronouncement, the Elf Sage’s Honour Awarding Ceremony comes to an absolute conclusion.
The onlookers also began to disperse, marveling at the eye-opening experiences of the day.
Unseen, the fear brought about by the destruction of the Elf Royal Court also diminished significantly.
With Lis’s becoming an Elf Sage and the spread of news about his confrontation with the Demon Prince in the Elf Royal Court throughout the Elf Forest, the disaster of the destruction of the Elf Royal Court would eventually fade as well.
But none of this was of any consequence to Lis anymore.
After saying goodbye to Julian and the others, Lis walked toward the headquarters of [Nature’s Wrath] with Daphne,
Today, Daphne played a significant role in the ceremony as she presided over the offerings to the Elf Gods on behalf of Elf Land. The young moon elf girl exhibited a solemn and dignified manner, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor.
Lis even doubted for a moment if she had a dual personality.
When a personality switch occurred, even her aura seemed to change.
Lis furrowed his brow, turned around to face the empty street behind him, and said in a deep voice,
“Come out, I’ve already noticed you.”
As Lis’s words fell, a breeze blew by, but not a single figure appeared on the street behind him.
Lis was somewhat helpless but continued to speak:
“Please come out, Lady Gester.”
“How did you find me?”
Rosanara Guest, a follower of the Lucky Goddess, emerged from thin air, looking at Lis with curiosity.
She had used the Goddess’s Divine Arts to conceal her form, yet Lis had still detected her presence.
Even Legendary rank powerhouses might not be able to sense her, given that this involved a special Divine Art related to the concept of destiny!
“The Divine Power emanating from you is quite distinct.”
Lis nodded and said, as a Gold-level professional, he had encountered Divine Power more frequently than most Legendary Strongmen and was naturally much more sensitive to it.
When he felt a peculiar Divine Power following him, he didn’t act initially, fearing some Evil God believers might be planning an attack, wanting to avoid prematurely agitating the assailant and risking harm to Daphne, who was with him.
But once he realized his follower was Rosanara, he was somewhat speechless.
You are a favored one of the Lucky Goddess; in a way, you are a big shot. Can you not do these sneaky things?
“That’s your fault!”
Rosanara asserted with full conviction:
“Didn’t we agree that you would wait for me after the ceremony? Why did you just leave!”
“…It seems there was such a matter.”
Lis suddenly remembered his earlier promise and appeared somewhat embarrassed.
Having received new Legendary Equipment during the ordination ceremony, his mind was entirely focused on that, and he had completely forgotten about the other matter.
“Lady Gester, I was negligent!”
Lis bowed slightly to Rosanara, indicating his apology.
“May I know why you were looking for me?”
Rosanara, as a favored one of the Lucky Goddess, possessed rather miraculous and unique abilities, and Lis preferred not to offend such a being if possible.
“Just call me Rosanara, especially since you are a favored one of the great World Tree Yggdrasil.”
Rosanara nodded to Lis and then hesitantly said:
“Actually… it’s nothing important.”
“…What do you mean?”
Lis didn’t understand the implication of Rosanara’s words and looked puzzled.
“It’s just… I’m very curious about what kind of experiences you’ve had?”
“That make the aura of destiny around you so peculiar?”
