I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 499 - 370: Recasting the Glory of the Battle Mage_2

Joyce pointed to the gathering polluted blood below.

"Yes, I understand now."

Lis nodded, knowing this was something he couldn't handle.

Expertise had its specialties; it was best left to the professionals of the Dawn Church.

Moreover, the plague on him was recovering too slowly on its own. The effect of regular healing magic was negligible against this kind of divine plague skill, so relying on the Dawn Church's purification divine technique was most convenient.

Joyce felt very assured leaving everything to Lis, and with a flash, left the place.

Lis looked down at the ominous blood pool below, gave up the idea of looting the corpses, and decided to hurry back to Bright City instead!

Even the body of the Golden Assassin Mei Lulan, who was killed by Lis, was now engulfed by the polluted blood containing divine power. If there were any relics, they were likely contaminated too.

Thinking about it made him feel distressed. He should have collected them at the time!

Lis thought to himself, somewhat heartbroken.

However, the gains from this time were substantial. He had eliminated Duke House, the deepest hidden agent of the All Beast Church in Feis Kingdom. The All Beast Church should be unable to trouble him in the short term.

As for the matter of Judgement Flame being attacked by two Legendary strongmen, Lis wasn't worried about his teacher's safety.

Jokingly, in the version's main storyline where Abyss Demons invaded, in the most crucial World Rift battle, Judgement Flame was surrounded by five Legendary Abyss Demons but had no trouble at all, even boldly killing one of the Legendary Balrog Flame Demons.

Lis didn't believe that two Legendary strongmen from the Evil God Church could harm his teacher.

Thinking that ambushing Judgement Flame would give them an advantage was wishful thinking on their part!

Lis applied another round of purification magic to himself, adjusted his status, and used Teleportation Technique to head directly for the Dawn Cathedral. Stay updated with novelbuddy

The next morning, at Kane Mansion,

In the bedroom at dawn, the sunlight gently crept through the white curtains like tender fingers, sporadically casting upon the soft bedsheets. The air was filled with a subtle scent of lavender, providing a calming effect on the mind.

Lis slowly opened his eyes, yawning lazily, suddenly feeling something heavy in his arms.

Looking down, he saw Risa's face peacefully resting on his arm, her petite body curled up in his embrace, her hair cascading down the blanket like a waterfall.

Risa's small hand clutched Lis's shirt tightly, her eyelashes fluttering slightly as if chasing something wonderful in her dreams.

The increasingly bright morning light coated Risa's jade-like white hair with a faint golden halo. Crisp bird songs came from outside the window, and the peace felt like time itself had frozen at this moment.

Lis didn't get up; instead, he pulled Risa's delicate and soft body closer to his chest and sighed deeply.

Last night had been relentless, whether it was being ambushed by the Plague Sect and the All Beast Church or resolving the aftermath upon returning to Bright City, all drained much of his energy.

Lis only found out after reaching the Dawn Church that not only were there attacks by the Evil God Church outside the city last night, but the city itself was also in chaos.

It wasn't like the Blood Sacrifice Chaos where Magic Beasts and Extraordinary Professionals slaughtered civilians, but a particular type of plague.

This plague spread very quickly. Although the Dawn Church discovered it promptly, over a hundred thousand people in Bright City were already infected.

Fortunately, the Dawn Church identified it quickly, Holy Light Lu Morris acted immediately to control the situation, and only a few hundred people died from severe illness, while the rest were saved by the Church's priests.

Lis didn't disturb Morris but instead reached out to a High-level Priest named Marcelo Sexton to address the plague on him, and after informing about the locations outside the city that needed purification, he directly went to the Royal Palace.

By the time Lis returned to the Royal Palace, the atmosphere in the banquet hall had been quite strange.

The assembled Nobles hadn't left yet, unclear about what had occurred.

Why had Marquis Kane attacked Duke House?

Why was Duke House said to be a part of the All Beast Church?

Especially upon learning that a peculiar plague was rapidly spreading in Bright City, none considered returning to their personal residences.

This special time meant that the Royal Palace was the safest place!

Upon Lis's return, he was immediately summoned by Duke Hade to meet His Majesty King Morton in the inner court.

Learning from Lis that Duke House was a part of the All Beast Church, especially about his plans to ambush Lis, and that two Legendary strongmen from the Evil God Church were currently battling Judgement Flame, the old king fell silent.

King Morton solemnly thanked Lis and, without concealing anything from him, directly started making arrangements to wrap things up.

The matter of the plague was handed over to the Dawn Church, while the Kingdom was more concerned about treating and comforting the civilians, as well as settling scores with Duke House and his supporters.

Lis stayed with King Morton for a while, then took his leave.

It was foreseeable that with the biggest malignant tumor, Duke House, removed, at least the Feis Kingdom could have a peaceful time to recuperate and consume the spoils gained from conquering the Boditch Kingdom.

After returning to the banquet hall, Lis paid no mind to the inquiries from other Nobles. He told them that he had reported everything to His Majesty the King and then left with Risa.

Watching Lis leave, a crowd of Nobles felt uneasy, but none dared to block his path.
