Chapter 992 - 592: Return to the Floating City
Danerluo Port, Kane Castle,
Lis felt the warmth in his arms and quietly talked with Risa about recent events.
Although Risa was a bit shy, she still responded to Lis’s inquiries softly and truthfully.
It was at this moment that Lis felt Risa’s strength had improved a lot since he last returned.
Risa, unlike Lis, had her path to strength improvement planned out by [Judgement Flame] Stephens, which was perfectly suited to her situation.
So, Risa only needed to stay at Danerluo Port and steadily accumulate power.
Thanks to the presence of the Four Elements Tower at Azela Floating City, Lis had also set up a Hidden teleportation array from Danerluo Port to Azela Floating City, and Risa would go to the Element Tower for element blessings regularly.
Due to this, Risa’s power was increasing faster than in her previous life.
Now, Risa mastered the Extraordinary Domain related to the Four Basic Elements, and her power level had reached 180 in Gold High Order, not too distant from Legend.
Seeing Risa at home lying down doing nothing, with the Four Elements Plane nurturing her strength like a daughter, Lis didn’t feel too envious.
Firstly, Risa belonged completely to him, like a dish from his own pot; secondly, while Risa’s path to power was unimpeded, making her advantageous pre-Legend, post-Legend power improvement wouldn’t come solely from Magic Power enhancement.
Combat experience, Law Comprehension, and other aspects Risa neglected required more strength to make up for.
But Lis wasn’t too worried; he had noticed this, and every time at Danerluo Port, he would train with Risa to help her catch up.
Moreover, reaching Legend is a dream that most Extraordinary Professionals dare not even dream of; as a Legendary guaranteed student, Risa will have plenty of time to address her shortcomings.
Everything still hinges on Risa’s breakthrough to Legend, as that’s what [Judgement Flame] Stephens also thought.
After a tender moment with Risa, Lis didn’t continue to linger and directly walked towards a corner of the castle.
Opening the door, he saw Joyce in black housekeeper attire sitting by the window, on the chair, with opened red wine and glasses, along with some Danerluo Port specialty snacks on the table.
Joyce glanced at Lis unhappily and then gestured for him to sit down.
Lis naturally understood why Joyce wasn’t pleased; he sat opposite Joyce with a smile.
Since Rebirth, Joyce had been quite considerate of him and provided a lot of help.
So, Lis respected Joyce from the bottom of his heart.
Lis sat in front of Joyce and looked at the red wine in front of him.
The dark bottle was embossed with a red eagle head, which was Wind Eagle Wine unique to Luou Peninsula.
Since Luou Peninsula became Lis’s domain, Mora started gathering these unique industries, selected the best, and through White Dove Chamber of Commerce, launched specialties like Wind Eagle Wine, which was quite welcomed by traders from other regions, procuring a lot.
Mora did this following the commercial model of brand establishment and sales Lis had suggested from his previous life.
Supported by the whole Duke Domain, Mora really did well.
But the fact that Uncle Joyce chose this newly emerged Wind Eagle Wine just showed how concerned he was about the development of the territory!
Lis didn’t say much, poured Joyce a glass of wine attentively, and said with a smile:
"Uncle Joyce, why aren’t you happy about me breaking through to Legend?"
Joyce took up his glass, swirling the red liquid within, and said helplessly:
"Of course, I’m happy; after all, I didn’t expect you to reach this step so quickly."
"Faster than I did back then,"
Joyce shook his head, saying with some emotion.
Though life was tough for him as a child, after joining the Kane family, he received the family’s support.
Since then, he became an Extraordinary Professional, even breaking through to Legend, without experiencing too many major upheavals.
Even so, he only achieved Legend in his forties.
Among Legends, his breakthrough age wasn’t too old.
But he couldn’t compare to Lis!
Now Lis was only in his twenties, a Legend in his twenties!
Before, Joyce didn’t even dare imagine this, which also indicated that Lis’s future would absolutely be stronger, much stronger, than his!
Of course, Lis was already the World Tree Sage, and those who knew this secret wouldn’t doubt it.
Lis didn’t be modest with Joyce either, enjoying wine and fresh sashimi while sharing his recent experiences with Joyce.
When Joyce heard that Taya had also broken through to Legend, his brows raised, showing some surprise.
He was well aware of Taya’s existence, and when in Bright City, he even watched her closely to ensure Lis’s safety.
But never did he expect this kingdom’s little princess to become a Legendary Warrior too.
Taya was around the same age as Lis, and Joyce started doubting if he was getting old, having never seen so many talents gather before.
Perhaps this is the change brought by Gaia World’s era wave?
