I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 1888: Chapter 1020: Holmes’s Advice

In the Dream Space,

Lis looked at Holmes in front of him, nodded, and said directly:

"I am equally honored to meet you again after so many years."

For Lis, being able to see the Great Arcanists of the Neserel Magic Empire again was also an extremely unforgettable experience.

In fact, besides the extraordinary knowledge and experience gained from the Great Arcanists, upon seeing so many Great Arcanists, Lis could feel their sense of perseverance.

This feeling is like witnessing, across countless ages, the spellcasters who paved the way for the future of magic through trials and rigors.

And now, Lis is also on the path to pave the way for all mages.

So now, standing before Holmes, Lis experiences a feeling of confusion through space-time in the silence.

Yet at the same time, this also makes Lis’s will even more steadfast.

"In seeking magic, there is nothing different about us."

"Moreover, I can sense that you have far surpassed me."

Holmes glanced at Lis and sighed, saying:

"It’s unimaginable, what so many of us pursued yet couldn’t achieve back then, we finally witness under these circumstances."

Lis said nothing, just listened quietly.

Undoubtedly, like the previous Great Arcanists, Holmes had also noticed Lis’s strength.

In their view, for Lis to break through to demigod status is simply a miracle of magic.

This was from the time of the Neserel Magic Empire when all gods were considerably antagonistic towards mages.

As leaders of mages, the Great Arcanists naturally wanted to change this situation.

Besides the Floating City, they needed other cards to counter the threats brought by the gods.

If one could ascend to godhood while persisting in the magical path, this would undoubtedly be the best scenario.

However, despite expending countless extremely precious materials and many Great Arcanists’ considerable time, no one achieved any results.

No one even managed to move a single step forward.

Thus, later, many Great Arcanists despaired, believing that divine power and magic could not coexist.

Afterward, the Great Arcanists gave up further researching this direction, choosing to continue strengthening the Floating City.

Holmes was also one of the Great Arcanists researching ascension, naturally understanding the situation within.

So, he was so surprised when he met Lis.

In fact, just as Lis had guessed, he differed from the other Great Arcanists who jointly sealed the Orofen Floating City.

As the one overseeing and mastering the entire seal, Holmes had maintained clarity of mind for countless years, continually upholding the seal’s stability and balance.

This was something only he could do.

But likewise, the pain and fatigue brought by countless ages also ravaged his spirit.

Thanks to Holmes having a stronger, more resilient soul and will than other Great Arcanists, along with the support of others’ spiritual power, he was able to endure.

Truth be told, Holmes didn’t know how long he could persist, or how many more lengthy ages would pass in the future.

To prevent the [Great Magic Net Collapse] event from recurring, for the future of all mages, he was willing to do so.

However, he had noticed a new situation earlier.

The dreams unchanged for countless years suddenly underwent new changes.

He could feel the dream spaces belonging to companions disappearing one by one.

Yet, to Holmes’s surprise, he didn’t sense any anger or hatred from the disappearance of those dream spaces.

The thoughts left by companions were ones of joy, relief, and fulfillment.

This led Holmes, prepared to confront enemies, to remain inactive and quietly await Lis’s arrival.

Indeed, Lis’s arrival gave him a great surprise.

Perhaps, the [Magic] Divine Position that he’d sealed and guarded for countless ages was in anticipation of Lis’s arrival?

Looking at Lis with deep aura in front, Holmes felt both gratified and regretful.

If only he could witness the day Lis truly ascends...

Haha, to see such a future for mages, perhaps I should be content.

After a moment of silence, Holmes looked at Lis and asked with a smile:

"Have you come here for Mistra and the [Magic] Divine Position?"

"Yes, Lord Holmes."

Lis nodded without the slightest hesitation and said:

"I want to try ascending, obtaining the [Magic] Divine Position should be a great help."

"So, I hope to gain your recognition."

"Haha."

Holmes smiled faintly, the fatigue in his eyes seemed to dissipate somewhat.

"I don’t know where you found the location of the [Magic] Divine Position, but reaching here means you’ve gained all our recognition."

"I don’t want to discuss qualification with you, just ready to confirm something."

"You should know the significance of exhausting everything, even our souls, to seal Mistra, right?"

Lis nodded slightly.

Holmes continued:

"In fact, I can imagine the current plight of mages."

"Without the presence of the Magic Net, mastering independent spellcasting is many times more challenging."
