Chapter 508: Chapter 373: The Kane Family’s Secret Legacy – Azela Floating City

Kane Mansion,

Joyce looked at Lis’s sowhat excited expression and chuckled, “A still-operating Floating City holds a great temptation for Mages, and although your great-grandfather wasn’t a Mage, as a Gold-level professional, he recognized the Floating City at that ti.”

“That Floating City was underneath a small island in the outer seas of the Treasure Pearl Sea. Your great-grandfather discovered the Floating City alone; he knew the value of a Floating City, so he chose not to join with others but to explore it by himself,”

“Although your great-grandfather was a Gold-level professional, he was rely a warrior after all. He tried his best but could only explore the periphery of that Floating City. After all, the Floating City, as the highest crystallization of Mages’ Spell wisdom, was too much for a warrior to explore.”

“Your great-grandfather gained plenty of wealth but was seriously injured in the process and had to leave the Floating City,”

“However, during his exploration, he also learned the na of that Floating City…”

...

Joyce looked at Lis and softly said, “Azela Floating City!”

“The na of the Floating City your great-grandfather discovered.”

Indeed!

Azela Floating City!

It seed his previous guesses were not wrong; everything matched up!

Upon hearing this familiar na, Lis imdiately took it to heart.

In his past life, Risa had announced herself as “Azela” after becoming the Legendary Mage.

Now, it appeared it wasn’t that Risa had chosen that na and then nad the Floating City after herself, but that she had directly used the na of Azela Floating City as her title.

Joyce didn’t mind Lis’s thoughtful expression, which was normal; anyone hearing that their family had control of a Floating City would struggle to stay calm.

“Your great-grandfather left with the wealth he acquired from the Floating City, knowing that only a Mage could truly master it, so he chose to train your grandfather to beco a Mage,”

“To avoid suspicion, he didn’t stay in the Boditch Kingdom but moved to the western Feis Kingdom to focus on raising your grandfather,”

Joyce tapped the armrest of the sofa lightly with his right hand, sowhat sentintally saying, “Honestly, your grandfather was really impressive, and his vision was very far-reaching.”

“If he had been a regular professional, after receiving this news, he might have traded the information with the Legendary Mage and could have also obtained enough wealth to squander for a lifeti. But he chose to protect this secret and pass it down to his descendants,”

Lis nodded slightly. While he had just learned the na of his great-grandfather, he didn’t feel much for him, but he could imagine how much thought and preparation the Kane family ancestor had given for the sake of future generations.

“Your great-grandfather, because of the severe injuries sustained from exploring the Floating City, passed away after raising your grandfather, but not before he told your grandfather the secret of the Floating City.”

“Your grandfather’s Mage talent was actually quite ordinary,”

Joyce said with so respect, yet bluntly,

“Even with the assistance of those precious resources and treasures from the Floating City, he barely managed to beco a Gold-level Mage.”

Well, that’s true; in the eyes of this legendary figure, such talent really isn’t much.

Lis mused internally but continued listening carefully to Joyce’s recollections.

“Your grandfather explored that Floating City many tis and acquired quite a lot of resources and treasures, hence he obtained the title of Court Viscount in the Feis Kingdom,”

“Your grandfather has nothing else to say, guarding this secret until he died.”

“Then it was your father, Brandon Kane,”

Upon ntioning this na, Lis felt Joyce’s deanor beca sowhat softer.

It seed his father and Uncle Joyce had a really good relationship?

Perhaps this was why Uncle Joyce had stayed within the Kane family for so many years, taking care of him.

Joyce fell silent for a mont, then looking at Lis, said:

“Before, I wasn’t part of the Kane family; at that ti, my parents had died early, and I was forced to wander outside,”

“Sleeping under other people’s roofs, without even a straw hut to call my own, too thin and small to do any work, I could only pray everyday that soone might pity enough to give sothing to eat. Even then, others might have snatched it away,”

Joyce looked at Lis with a smile, sowhat nostalgically saying,

“Perhaps, Lis, you don’t know, but my childhood dream was to beco a noble’s butler, to be well-dressed and follow behind those nobles, not worrying about having no place to live or nothing to eat.”

“For that, I even secretly observed those noble butlers’ manners and words, just so I could have a chance to beco a respectable noble butler one day,”

“Perhaps it was the Lucky Goddess’s favor; I rember that day, I had just gotten a bit of food, was thinking about hiding it, when it was discovered by those exploiting beggars. Maybe to teach a lesson to obey, those people beat up, snatched the food, and threw directly into the mud in front of them.”

“It was a piece of dark bread!”

Joyce clenched his right fist in his left hand, subconsciously rubbing it.

“Very simple, very coarse bread, but even so, it was a rare al to at the ti.”
