I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 448: Chapter 353: Shy Risa

Looking at the now silent King of Bodich lying on the ground, Lis gave a few glances before losing interest.

“He’s dead, Mom…”

Helen, on the other hand, watched John Bertic slowly lose his life with unwavering determination in her eyes.

She had thought that avenging the perpetrator would bring her satisfaction, but after it happened, Helen felt an unexpected sense of relief, with only the memory of her mother left in her heart.

Lis touched Helen’s little head and said softly:

“It’s over, he’s dead. From now on, you need to live for your mother and for yourself.”

“Don’t let hatred consume you anymore.”

“Yes, Teacher!”

Helen responded in a low, hoarse voice.

Feeling the warmth from her teacher’s palm, she tightened her grip on the hem of Lis’s clothes with the hand that had put away the dagger, as if being close to her teacher could provide her the most solid support.

I’m lucky to have met you, Teacher…

Lis looked at Helen, whose emotions were now stabilizing, and signaled to Basel to take care of all the attendants who had followed the King.

These men were most loyal to the King of Bodich and had done numerous dirty deeds for His Majesty in secret. Knowing this, Lis naturally showed no mercy.

Go to

Casually freezing the body of John Bertic, Lis planned to hand it over to Bevis and the others when he found the right time.

If Lis had captured or personally killed the King of Bodich, he would have received even more rewards and benefits. But compared to that, Lis was more concerned about helping Helen break free from her hatred.

Otherwise, it would have been a regret that lasted her entire life!

Even though in the past life Helen became the Pirate King and gained enough strength, the Bodich Kingdom had already completely fallen, and there was no chance for revenge anymore.

Although players didn’t know that Helen was the princess of the Bodich Kingdom, the usual demeanor of this Pirate King was that of an unapproachable ice beauty, and Lis didn’t want the future Helen to end up like that.

Now, the outcome seems quite good!

Lis crouched down, wiped away the tear from the corner of Helen’s eye with his right hand, and slid an exquisite golden ring onto her small finger.

This was the storage ring Lis had just taken from John Bertic, and upon checking, it contained a vast amount of Gold Coins and other precious treasures.

The Space Ring had the size of a vault, containing several hundred thousand Gold Coins, with the rest being various Magic Gems, Magic Equipment, and other items.

This must have been part of the Boditch Royal Family’s foundational wealth, carried by King John on his person, and the rest of the wealth must have already been moved elsewhere.

This fortune, albeit precious, held little significance for Lis at the moment.

Now, perhaps only powerful special items and Legendary Equipment could significantly enhance his strength!

However, with access to the Boditch Royal Family’s foundational wealth, Helen could now be considered a bona fide wealthy “little princess”!

Lis took a precious and ornate silver crown from the storage ring, set with a pure blue sapphire the size of a pigeon’s egg amidst its intricate and elaborate patterns, and gently placed it on Helen’s head.

Helen’s fair and rosy-cheeked face looked exceptionally adorable under the embellishment of this luxurious crown.

“There you go, say goodbye to the past. From now on, Helen is our little princess!”

Lis said with a smile, taking Helen’s hand and walking out.

After Basel had dealt with the attendants, he quickly followed the two out of the small house.

Who would have thought that this ordinary and dim little house would become the burial place of the King of Bodich.

…

At that moment, outside the small house’s window, several figures were stealthily moving in the darkness.

“Damn, this is thrilling!”

A voice suddenly emerged from the dark, belonging to the player [Shrimp and Turnip Stew],

“Who would have thought that the King of Bodich would die here, and at the hands of Lis, no less. This is too exciting!”

For Radish, the thrill of witnessing such secretive events in the game was enough to stimulate his pleasure nerves.

“Hey, hey, who do you guys think that cute little girl with Lis is?”

Scoundrel was also curiously peeking out. Earlier, the three of them had been carefully watching the events unfold through the window, not daring to make a sound, fearing they might disrupt the storyline.

They only dared to show themselves after Lis and the others had left.

In truth, they didn’t need to be so cautious; the fact that they had made it here was also arranged by Lis, or else Helen and Basel, who were the first to arrive, would have chased them away long ago.

“Didn’t you hear what the old king said? That little girl is his daughter, so she must also be the princess of the Boditch Kingdom.”

Radish’s eyes sparkled with a strong desire to explore, speaking with conviction.
