I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means
Chapter 1058 - 622: Risa Steps into the Legend!_2

In fact, as a Legendary Mage, the extraordinary materials that Steven uses in his daily research aren't a small expense.

However, compared to the value of the magic equipment and tools Steven makes, it's well worth it.

The high-level magic equipment and tools crafted by Steven, aside from a portion kept as reserve materials for the Floating City, are all excellent goods for trading with other extraordinary forces.

In this regard, Steven's output far surpasses Lis', both in quality and quantity.

Lis could only "reluctantly" hand this task over to Steven.

As for the compensation to Steven, Lis claimed there was no such thing.

Doesn't Steven live in the Floating City without paying rent or meal costs?

Moreover, the extraordinary materials needed for Steven's magical research are all covered by him, isn't he the most conscientious boss?

And Steven didn't have any other thoughts; he actually felt this kind of life was quite good.

There weren't too many people seeking him out to disturb his research; whatever materials were needed, the Black Cat would directly deliver them. Could there be anything more suited to a homebody like him?

"Steven, how's the thing we talked about last time?"

The Black Cat glanced at the high-level magic equipment and tools casually piled in a corner, then commanded the Elemental Magic Statue to move them all to the Floating City warehouse.

The Black Cat's projection appeared beside Steven, watching him intently use the abundant Magic Power of the Floating City to enchant a golden ring.

When Steven paused his work, she said:

"Steven, have you started on the Elemental Magic Statue you promised to make for me last time?"

During this period, because Lis asked the Black Cat to keep an eye on Steven, the Black Cat had frequent contact with Steven and even led him on a brief tour of the Floating City.

At that time, Steven learned that the Black Cat was the magical intelligent life of the Kane Floating City.

And indeed, the two homebodies quickly became familiar with each other and got along well.

Only Risa was always in the Library and at home, rarely going out, otherwise, the three of them could form a homebody group.

The Black Cat, after becoming the controller of Kane Floating City, finally fulfilled her idea of operating an Elemental Magic Statue.

However, it's unfortunate that the current Elemental Magic Statues in the Floating City are mass-produced by the Magic Statue Factory, intended to protect the Floating City, and not quite suitable for the Black Cat to take anywhere she pleases.

Although Lis could also make Elemental Magic Statues, the Black Cat knew Lis was quite busy lately, so she didn't want to bother Lis with her own whims.

In a casual chat about this matter once, Steven just offhandedly mentioned that he could also make Elemental Magic Statues, and the Black Cat discovered a whole new world.

Lis is busy, she won't disturb him, but Steven is quite "free" right now!

Why not let him do it?

The Black Cat proactively offered to satisfy more of Steven's requests if he'd make a Magic Statue shaped like her current appearance.

After Steven agreed, the Black Cat frequently visited Steven's Magic Workshop.

"It's done, here you go."

After thinking for a moment, Steven remembered what the Black Cat was talking about.

With a casual wave, a cat-eared girl magic statue appeared in front of the two of them.

The appearance of the magic statue was as exquisite and detailed as a real person, possessing warm, white skin that was pure and flawless like the first snow.

Her short black hair was neatly groomed, with cat ears playfully standing upright on either side, adding a touch of liveliness and cuteness to the girl.

The girl magic statue wore a black maid outfit, its hem light and flowing, exuding an elegant and mysterious aura.

"How is it?"

Steven gestured at the magic statue, speaking with some self-satisfaction:

"I told you, with my ability, the magic statue I make would certainly be of better quality than those from the Magic Statue Factory!"

The Black Cat looked at the magic statue in front of her, her eyes shining, nodding repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, I shouldn't have doubted you, this is much better than the magic statues I used before."

"Worthy of being a Master of Magic Statues!"

The Black Cat circled around the magic statue a few times, eagerly saying:

"Quick, give me control!"

Upon hearing the Black Cat's praise, Steven nodded in satisfaction and transferred the control of the magic statue to the Black Cat.

"You can use it first; later on, I'll make some more for you."

As the Black Cat eagerly entered the magic statue, feeling the tactile sensation of having a physical form and beginning to enjoy herself, Steven handed the Black Cat a storage ring, saying:

"Inside are matching clothes that you can change into. Clothes formed by condensed magic can't compare to the marvelous touch of real clothes."

"If it weren't for my ring being taken by Lis, I would have shown you my collection."

Finally meeting a like-minded person, Steven didn't mind the trouble and enthusiastically recommended to the Black Cat.

The Black Cat took the ring, looking at the various styles of magnificent clothes in it, nodded in admiration and said:

"No wonder it's you!"

...

Meanwhile,

Lis was not in the Magic Workshop of the Floating City at this moment but had arrived at a deserted island deep within the Treasure Pearl Sea.

This place is far from the normal merchant ship routes, and hardly anyone comes here.

Lis came not for himself, but accompanied Risa here.

Six months after Lis achieved legend, Risa was finally preparing to break through to legend.

"It's okay, don't be nervous."

Lis looked at the serious expression of the girl before him, smiled as he ruffled her hair, and comforted her with a smile.

Due to Lis, Risa became a disciple of "Judgement Flame" earlier than in the previous life, and also encountered Kane Floating City sooner.

These two supports helped Risa, who possessed the legendary talent of "Elemental Torrent Controller", touch the Legendary Realm earlier than in the previous life.

Moreover, with Lis's help, Risa's strength has improved all-around, and she is now a powerful mage on her own.

"Mm."

Risa felt the warmth from Lis's palm, and at this moment her previously tense heart calmed down.

Being by Lis's side, she always feels incredibly secure.

Also for this reason, Joyce did not come this time, entrusting Lis with the task of guarding Risa's breakthrough.

"Lis, I'm going now."

Determination flickered in Risa's eyes.

"Good luck."

Lis nodded, then stood up and retreated outside the island.

Though knowing it was almost impossible for anyone to come and disturb Risa, Lis still set up a concealed array around the island, hiding the entire island.

Lis watched Risa standing on the flat ground at the center of the island; she had already closed her eyes, brewing something.

This state of Risa's lasted for a day, but Lis was not in a hurry.

He could feel Risa's aura gradually strengthening, approaching the critical point.

When the aura emanating from Risa broke the boundary, a sudden change occurred.

The azure sky was suddenly torn apart, and four multi-colored beams of light piercing the sky fell with a crash, and the rocks around Risa exploded into powder in the violent magic flow.

Endless tidal waves of elements seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand, frantically surging towards the figure standing in the center of the island.

The Earth Element transformed into brown-golden crystal sand, accompanied by the roar from the depths of the earth's core, shot up into the sky, covering Risa's exposed skin with the patterns of the earth.

Each grain of sand reorganized between her bones into the backbone of mountains, ancient rock layers whispered into substantial runes, imprinting the authority of the earth onto her spine.

The Wind Element transformed into a blue wind tearing through the clouds, forming a spiral staircase reaching the heavens.

Risa's robe rustled in the airflow strong enough to cut through steel, yet countless wind blades transformed into docile silver finches at her raised hand, merging into her body.

The Water Element surged in the nearby ocean, transforming into a storm and falling around Risa.

Under her feet, a starry liquid-like sea spreads, and the water elemental power fluctuating in the tides transformed into azure starlight permeating into Risa's body, constantly strengthening her.

The Fire Element finally ignited the entire island, lava erupts from the volcanic crater formed by the ground's fracture.

Risa opened her arms in the crimson rainfall, the flickering tongues of flame licking her body but leaving no scars, growing veins flowing with golden-red magma on her skin, emitting strong and powerful waves.

At the moment when the four elemental torrents converged within Risa, they transformed into a gigantic four-color elemental vortex, making the entire island moan under the overwhelming pressure.

Risa floated at the center of the four-color vortex, the surging magic around her twisting the air into rainbow-like distortions.

The passage to the Four Elements Plane opened behind her, with endless elemental magic pouring into Risa's body.

And Risa, like an infinite black hole, greedily devoured all of the incoming elemental magic.

After completely surpassing that barrier, the last trace of ordinariness within Risa turned to Annihilation in the elemental chant.

Risa has achieved legend!
