I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means
Chapter 978 - 586: Declaration of Sovereignty

"Then this small world is my possession."

Lis looked at Delia in front of him, with a friendly smile on his face.

Yet in Delia's view, this smile carried a hint of danger and horror.

What does this man named Lis mean? Does he want to conquer the entire Cardiff Kingdom?

All by himself?

Delia looked at Lis in front of her, her face full of vigilance.

Regardless of whether the opponent has this ability or not, the terrifying strength just displayed wasn't something Delia could withstand.

Lis looked at the guarded Delia and didn't mind much.

From Delia's reaction, he could be sure that the strength of the transcendents in this small world wouldn't be too strong.

There shouldn't be any Legendary Ranked strongmen.

After all, it's just a small world that has been closed for many years, it's unlikely such a rare event would occur.

Even if there's a small chance, if a Legendary Crown does appear in this small world, Lis would choose to flee.

Being unable to fight against legends now doesn't mean he can't in the future.

When Lis breaks through to legend, he can come back to regain face; for now, Lis has the confidence to strategically retreat.

Faced with Lis declaring sovereignty, Delia's heart sank slightly.

"You want to conquer Cardiff Kingdom, all by yourself?"

Delia stepped back a few paces, preparing to call for help.

"Of course, it's just me."

Lis surveyed the surrounding room, until he saw the massive teleportation array on the ground, and shook his head slightly.

Indeed, it's truly an ancient version in demand; this teleportation array is too complicated.

Not only does the array require vast amounts of magic power to activate, it can't even maintain a stable long-term teleportation channel, only single-use teleportation.

In ancient times, this would be considered a 'rudimentary' teleportation array.

So this so-called 'Cardiff Kingdom' shouldn't be a strong force.

Delia frowned slightly, although Lis didn't show it, she faintly sensed his indifferent attitude.

As if ruling Cardiff Kingdom was a given for him, and they had no right to resist.

While Delia found it ridiculous, she also instantly became vigilant, crushing the warning tool in her hand, commanding guards stationed outside the secret chamber.

Lis naturally saw Delia's movements, but he didn't intervene to stop her.

Jokingly, he came here specifically to stir up trouble, right?

This secret chamber's protective measures cannot stop Lis's detection.

In his perception, there are many not weak presences in the building above, and those buildings resemble the specifications of a Royal Palace.

After all, the World Gate beneath Lis should be the most important place linking this small world to the outside; if the legacy of the kingdom's leaders who went into the small world for refuge years ago hasn't been broken, it's not surprising to build the Royal Palace above the World Gate.

Moreover...

Lis looked at Delia in front, who was on guard, smiling while waiting for her preparations.

The first step to stirring trouble is not to speak properly.

Delia looked at Lis, having already retreated to the door.

Clang clang~

The sound of clashing armor came. Fully armed Royal Palace Guards appeared outside the door.

"Delia, Your Majesty!"

The lead guard wearing silver armor addressed Delia, while sternly watching Lis inside the room.

Lis's appearance and attire clearly did not belong to the palace's interior, yet he managed to appear in the palace's most hidden place, even disturbing the majesty.

This is their failure as guards!

Precisely because of this reason, his expression looking at Lis was extremely unpleasant, as if he wanted to kill Lis on the spot.

Delia held the Magic Wand and lightly tapped the ground.

Immediately, the pre-arranged magic restrictions around the room emerged in mid-air, dense magical patterns outlined different magic models around Lis, all aiming at Lis.

Only at this moment did Delia slightly breathe a sigh of relief.

Though unsure why Lis hadn't acted and waited for her preparations, she had deployed all defensive measures.

No matter how strong the opponent is, as long as he's not the legendary strongman, he can't break through the defense here.

"Alright, tell me, what exactly are you here for?"

After a moment of silence, Delia asked Lis.

After all, this handsome young man claiming to be Lis is the first person in countless years to come from Gaia World to Cardiff Kingdom.

Delia is very curious about the secrets on Lis and especially about the news from Gaia World.

If possible, Delia wants to get a method from Lis to go to Gaia World.

Though she knows Lis's strength is likely strong, maybe even stronger than her, the Cardiff Royal Family's most talented in the past century, this is the palace's most heavily guarded place.

She still has the confidence to keep Lis here.

"Didn't I already say?"

Lis looked at Delia, smiling as he spoke:

"This small world is my possession now, you all are my spoils."

"You maniac!"

"Answer whatever I ask honestly; I might spare your life."

The Royal Palace Guard Captain angrily stepped forward and said:

"Surrender immediately, or you won't even know how you died!"

"Is that so, I'm so scared."

Lis said calmly.

Delia looked at Lis's composed demeanor, though she has confidence in the palace's internal defenses, seeing Lis's calm attitude, she felt inexplicably uneasy.
