I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 569 397 The Descendants of the Day Elf
Chapter 569: Chapter 397: The Descendants of the Day Elf Chapter 569 -397: The Descendants of the Day Elf Mercenary Tavern, VIP Room,
“Such a matter is unknown to the Mercenary Guild—this person would know?”
Lis leaned back casually, eyeing Drogo thoughtfully.
Feeling Lis’s gaze, Drogo inwardly groaned.
If possible, Drogo didn’t want to discuss these matters with Lis.
Although he was unaware of his intentions, the fact that he was gathering information about the Navia Great Forest and the Elf Royal Court clearly indicated his plans against the Elf Clan.
Even though the man before him was unusually young to have broken through to Gold Level strength, Drogo didn’t think he could accomplish it.
After all, the Elf Clan was not short of legendary strongmen, especially at a crucial place like the Elf Royal Court.
...
Drogo believed that if Lis truly intended to plot something detrimental against the Elf Clan at the Elf Royal Court, he was simply courting death.
Better to send this lord away quickly!
A myriad of thoughts swirled in Drogo’s mind, but he wore a smile and said:
“That’s right, Lord Lis.”
“You know, we are the Mercenary Guild in Nelin City, so we receive many commissions every day.”
“Among them, there is a Gold Level commission to escort an elf to the Royal Capital of Acot City in the Bolin Kingdom.”
“The Bolin Kingdom?”
Lis suddenly thought of something and looked at Drogo.
“Yes, Lord Lis.”
“As you may already know, there is currently an envoy team from the Elf Royal Court Zhonuo City in the Royal Capital of the Bolin Kingdom, and this elf who posted the commission is preparing to go to the Bolin Kingdom to meet with the envoy team.”
After hesitating for a moment, Drogo added:
“This elf’s name is Cecil. She has been living in Nelin City for some time and is a gemstone inlay master.”
“It’s rumored that before she arrived in Nelin City, she lived in Zhonuo City for a while and might have the bloodline of the Illiser Family from the Elf Royal Court.”

The Illiser?
That one of the Sun Elf Families?
Lis was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected to stumble upon such information here.
It’s well-known among the Elf Clan that the number of Sun Elves and Moon Elves is incredibly scarce, and due to their exceptional talents, they are even referred to as High Elves.
Typically, the Elf King is succeeded by a Sun Elf, while the Moon Elves take on important roles such as priests.
To maintain the purity of their bloodline, Sun Elves and Moon Elves don’t marry other elves, generally choosing mates from within their own kind.
On rare occasions, an elf might undergo a bloodline ascent to become a Sun Elf or Moon Elf, but such beings are quickly absorbed into their families as a family member.
Because of this, offspring from Sun Elves and common elves within the Elf Clan are exceedingly rare. Their status is not as marginalized as Half-Elves, but they don’t receive the same respect and equal treatment from the Sun Elves.
And now there’s an elf who once lived in the Elf Royal Court and also has Sun Elf bloodline?
Although Lis hadn’t heard of Cecil before, he was now intrigued.
Most importantly, since Cecil had lived in the Elf Royal Court, it was quite possible she knew the situation in Zhonuo City.
In his previous life, before players made contact with the Elf Clan, the Elf Royal Court had already been destroyed, so Lis’s understanding of it was largely based on various reports and quite one-sided.
“Alright, I’ll take this commission.”
Lis nodded in satisfaction, not expecting to stumble upon such an opportunity at the first Mercenary Guild he visited; his luck was quite good indeed.
He had been prepared for the possibility of not gathering any information and having to use “Mirror Body” to forcibly collect intelligence from the Elf Royal Court.
“Very well, please wait a moment.”
Seeing that Lis seemed much more amiable, Drogo also relaxed.
It was good to satisfy this lord and incidentally solve a somewhat troublesome commission.
Though Lis hadn’t yet reached Gold Level as a mercenary, it would be no problem once he finished dealing with those Magical Beast Materials.
It wasn’t long before Drogo brought the Gold Level commission details and the payment for selling materials.
After confirming everything was correct, Lis left the Mercenary Tavern.
…
In Nelin City, along a secluded street,
Lis examined the map in his hands, confirming that the address left by the commissioner was indeed the house in front of him.
Is this the home of the elf Cecil?
Lis took a look at the house before him and its surrounding garden. Although the garden wasn’t large, it was a vibrant haven of life.
The grass was as green as an emerald, carpeting the entire garden, and a variety of brightly-colored flowers vied to outshine each other with their beauty. These flowers swayed gently in the breeze, emitting waves of enchanting fragrance, like a natural perfumer’s meticulously crafted scent, intoxicating to the senses.
The most eye-catching aspect was the central cottage, where vines offered a distinct view, entwining and covering the walls in a green barrier that sparkled with the vibrancy of life under the sunlight, adding a burst of energy and vitality to the dwelling.
Although decorated with an abundance of plants, there was no sense of chaos; instead, there was harmony with a hint of tranquillity, as if the cottage were not in a city but in a peaceful forest.
Knocking gently on the garden gate, Lis waited patiently, quietly anticipating the owner’s response.
Creak~
As the wooden door of the cottage opened, Lis noticed a young girl clad in brown leather armor step out, curiously observing him from beyond the gate.
