I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means Chapter 311: 284: Extremely Rich Harvest!

Chapter 311: Chapter 284: Extrely Rich Harvest!

Ice Peak City, Kenne Simon’s residence.

This forr Finance Officer’s ho was on the west side of Ice Peak City, so it was not damaged in the recent “Demon’s Gate” incident.

“Ugh… my head hurts.”

Lis slowly opened his eyes, unsure of how long he had been asleep in bed.

Although he was still quite exhausted, he could no longer sleep.

The wounds on his soul had significantly healed, and the rest would have to slowly recover over ti.

...

As Lis sat up, he suddenly noticed a familiar person standing by his bed.

He hadn’t sensed any presence and was about to grab his magic wand outright.

But after seeing clearly who it was, he let out a sigh of relief.

“Mr. Stephens, what are you doing here?”

Stephens smiled slightly and nodded as he said,

“I’ve captured that person, but sadly, his soul was very deft at escaping, leaving behind no useful information.”

“However, it must be that Demon Prince Demogorgon without a doubt.”

Lis nodded, not particularly concerned.

It seed that although Demogorgon had successfully infiltrated the Gaia World, he must be facing significant limitations. Surely he was no match for his teacher.

“I’ve already taken his body back to Bright City, and what’s left here is a fragnt of my consciousness.”

“A fragnt of consciousness, you an like Uncle Joyce’s?”

Lis asked curiously, having not realized until Stephens ntioned it that the person before him was a fragnt rather than the man himself.

“That’s far from it.”

Stephens seed contemplative, as if he had been studying this mystery recently.

“Although my consciousness fragnt can exist for a long ti, it has hardly any strength.”

“Enough about that, I specifically left this fragnt here because there are so things I need to entrust to you.”

Seeing Mr. Stephens’s serious expression, Lis promptly sat up straight and respectfully said,

“Please, teach, speak.”

“No matter which Abyss Lord has possessed Dillon King, it certainly isn’t one mired in madness.”

“In the past couple of days, my cursory investigations have failed to uncover any clues beyond the ‘Demon’s Gate.’

“But sothing is very wrong here. That being has ticulously plotted all this, surely with far-reaching sches, it’s just that I haven’t discovered them yet.”

“Moreover, I have so bad premonitions.”

Stephens furrowed his brow as he spoke, Lis noticing for the first ti the look of his ntor encountering a tough problem.

“You’ve involved yourself quite deeply in this conflict!”

Stephens looked at Lis with a hint of pride in his words.

The truth was, “Judgent Fla” had grown increasingly fond of his disciple.

Composed in crisis, boldly making conjectures, he had shown no hesitation or panic in critical situations and inford his teacher rather than acting recklessly on his own.

Acting within one’s abilities is the mark of maturity.

Moreover, Stephens had noticed Lis’s destruction of the “Demon’s Gate” and was naturally quite surprised.

He imdiately recognized that the imnse power ca from the Dream World.

But the mysteries of the Dream World were elusive and hard to grasp; though Stephens had so understanding, it wasn’t his area of expertise.

It must’ve co from the inheritance in the ruins of Snow Ridge Town!

Impressive!

Nonetheless, Stephens had no intention of asking Lis for the inheritance.

At his stage, his accumulation was already substantial enough; what he needed was to break through in his areas of expertise.

“I will, I’ll be more careful next ti.”

Lis nodded, acknowledging his mistake.

To be honest, at the sight of the na “Demogorgon,” Lis had broken out in a cold sweat.

After all, that was a being standing at the pinnacle of both the Gaia World and the Bottomless Abyss.

Counted among the All Gods in Gaia, he was a Main God System of gods; even within the Gaia Main World, killing him wouldn’t be difficult.

It was a case of being a bit too complacent!

Since coming to this world, relying on the system, talent, and mories from a past life, Lis had faced relatively smooth sailing.

In fact, with his Silver Level capabilities, many of his previous actions were akin to walking a tightrope, relying more on the life-saving asures provided by his teacher “Judgent Fla” and Uncle Joyce.

It was during this process that Lis had let down his guard, thinking he could control the situation and stir up trouble.

Most importantly, he had lost his reverence for the unknown.

This was the Extraordinary World after all, and with his abilities, he couldn’t act so recklessly.

Constantly relying on those two pillars, without experiencing hardships on his own, would only cause him to miss the chance to reach greater heights.

From now on, caution was key!

Lis made a silent resolution to himself.

Seeing the resolve in Lis’s eyes, Stephens felt reassured and simply nodded with satisfaction.

A bright student was indeed a joy, only needing a slight hint to catch on. So easy.

“Since you’ve noticed, I won’t say more.”

“I’ll keep an eye on Demogorgon’s actions, and you should too; after all, he’s an Abyss Lord, and he might beco aware of your existence.”

“Yes, teacher.”

Lis nodded, feeling a bit heavy-hearted.

He had actually considered the connection between Demogorgon and the “Demon’s Gate.”

But having knowledge of past events, he had assud the instigator was that Demon Envoy, never considering the possibility that Demogorgon could be secretly pulling the strings from the shadows.

This was also due to being misled by Demogorgon’s long-standing low profile, a point Lis had subconsciously overlooked.
