I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means Chapter 32: 31 Desire

Chapter 32: Chapter 31 Desire

Since Lis had acquired the “All Martial Arts Mastery” Warrior Professional Specialization, nearly a week had passed.

During this ti, Lis had been very busy!

Joining the Yaya Adventure Group was unexpected, but Lis seized the opportunity to study and train hard.

After all, the chance to siphon skills from teammates for free was too good to pass up.

He gained many practical skills from Ya’er and Arsen, such as Charge, Soul-breaking Slash, Broken Tendon, and Thunderous Strike.

From Lunbos, he learned lifesaving skills like Hold the Line, Shield Wall, Iron Armor, and Physical Enhancent.

...

He even managed to snatch the Stone Statue Form race skill from a Black Iron Dwarf.

“Stone Statue Form: Once activated, immune to effects of bleeding, poison, and disease, increases armor value by 10%. Lasts 8 seconds, cooldown ti 3 minutes.”

As for Ailina, after getting to know Lis and realizing he wasn’t the kind of disgusting noble who keeps elves captive, their relationship improved significantly.

At Lis’s request, she showed him so Hunter professional skills, such as Tracking, Traps, and Wind Walking Technique.

Lis successfully learned them covertly.

As for the core abilities of taming beasts from the Hunter profession, Lis couldn’t learn them yet. He guessed that he might need to attain the Hunter Professional Specialization first to unlock these skills.

Compared to the family guards who were all iron-headed warriors, Lis felt he truly couldn’t compare, neither in quantity nor in quality. (Family Guard: Should I leave then?)

Although everyone was curious about Lis’s request to demonstrate the use of various professional skills, Lis explained that he had rarely encountered other Transcendent professions and wanted to familiarize himself with them to avoid being clueless when facing them in the future.

Lis did not want to hide this from his teammates, because his “All-Purpose” talent was too significant, and he had to be cautious until he had enough power to protect himself.

Being able to master skills from another profession was rare enough, but to master all professional skills would obviously indicate sothing unusual about him.

Lis planned that, when he acted using his own identity in the future, he could only use Warrior skills, and could just claim his profession was that of a Magic Swordsman!

Skills from other professions, if possible, would not be used for the ti being.

anwhile, after Lis had acquired nurous skills and the “All Martial Arts Mastery” Warrior Basic Specialization, the extra experience provided by the “All-Purpose” talent had also increased to 30%.

The strength of the “All-Purpose” talent was gradually being revealed.

Today, Lis was practicing with Ya’er again until late, sweating profusely and covered in dust on the villa grounds, still sparring with Ya’er with a longsword in hand.

It must be said that Ya’er, destined to be a main character in future stories, was young but her strength and experience far surpassed the forty-sothing-year-old Uncle Welf! (Welf: Should I leave then?)

“Alright, that’s enough, co in. Dinner is ready!”

Seeing the two had stopped, Arsen called out to them from the window.

The two stopped ssing around, put away their weapons, and went back inside.

Ya’er ran into the house excitedly, shouting,

“I’m so hungry, what are we having for dinner tonight?”

“Ordered food from Pascal Restaurant, might not be as good as what Lis makes, but it will do.”

Arsen said with a smile, waving to Lis.

“You flatter , I’m nowhere near as good as the professional chefs at the restaurant.” Lis modestly replied, having cooked many tis these past few days, nearly conquering the tastes of several mbers of the Yaya Adventure Group.

Arsen waved his hand, not adding anything more. In his view, Lis was indeed strange, being a noble proficient in cooking, and as a mage, practicing close combat with Ya’er.

But having interacted over the past few days, he found that Lis was a good person, not like so stingy nobles, always knowing a thing or two about many unfamiliar topics, making him easy and pleasant to be around.

Today, it was unusual for all mbers of the Yaya Adventure Group to gather together. As everyone enjoyed their al, Arsen tapped on the table and, once he captured everyone’s attention, cleared his throat and said:

“It has been a long ti since we completed the last commission, and with our new mber, Lis, having joined us, I think it’s ti we went to the rcenary Guild to pick up a new task.”

Being a rare Gold-level adventure team, the Yaya rcenary Group was naturally an important force for completing high-level commissions at the guild. The guild had already sent soone to inquire if Arsen wanted to accept a high-level commission, moreover, this was also the task assigned to him by his superiors.

Miss Ya’er had reached a certain level of strength, what mattered more now was enhancing her experience and exposure in various aspects.

That was also why Miss Ya’er frequently traveled around as a rcenary.

“Agreed!” Ya’er was the first to raise her hand, clutching a chicken leg. She was already eager, as staying in the city every day was incredibly boring.

“I have no objections!” Lunbos glanced at his mug of ale. The rewards from their last completed commission were almost entirely spent on his drinking, so he really needed to earn so more drinking money.

Ailina lightly tucked a few strands of her golden hair behind her ear with her right hand and gently nodded in agreent.

Lis, of course, had no objections!

Accepting a commission=Completing a high-rank task=A vast amount of Experience Points!

This was too tempting for the current Lis!

“Okay, then it’s decided,” said Arsen, nodding. He was generally in charge of the day-to-day affairs within the Yaya Adventure Group.

“Shall we go to the guild tomorrow morning then?”

At this point, Arsen turned to look at Lis and hesitated before saying:

“I think since it’s Lis’s first ti joining our adventure team, we should choose a simpler extermination task this ti, to integrate better.”

Lis nodded, as it made sense. After all, he was still only at the Bronze level, while his teammates were all at the Silver level, and Ya’er was even a Gold-level warrior. If the coordination wasn’t good, his presence could even be a detrint to the team.

Extermination tasks had a higher margin for error compared to exploring dangerous realms. After all, during explorations, dangers could co from all directions at any ti, which demands a higher degree of understanding among team mbers. Thus, Arsen’s consideration was quite thoughtful.

But Lis wasn’t worried about being a burden. He might not dare speak for others, but his practical combat experience with teammates was quite solid, a result of countless team wipes in his previous life.

Lis didn’t believe others could have experienced as many deaths as he had; ordinary battles could no longer disrupt his calm and collected combat ntality.

Lis’s situation was akin to a skilled cook without rice, possessing mature and skilled combat experience from his previous life but lacking corresponding strength.

His pace in enhancing his strength was still far from sufficient!

In these recent days of practical training, he was facing a chasm-like difference in strength between himself and Ya’er, who was the main character of the story.

Even if he used all his strength, he still couldn’t harm Ya’er at all.

Too weak!

Lis clenched his right hand as blood surged through his body and his spirit roared incessantly, his longing to enhance his strength had never been so fiery!

Even more so than the ti when he was just reborn as a Viscount and realized the threat of death he would face.

Yes!

Since he had co to this vast, heroic world, how could he be willing to fall behind others, to be swept up by the tides of fate, to simply go with the flow?

Even if it was the main character, it wouldn’t do!

I am Lis!

In this life, I must reach the pinnacle of this world, ensuring my na is rembered by all races of this world!
