I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic.

Chapter 480 [Laurel Leaf Crown of the Elven Sage]

Emerald City, Temple of the Elves,
The usually sacred Elf Temple now looks completely different.

The Elf Council of the Emerald City has already issued an announcement in advance, and this is also a matter of interest to many people in the Emerald City.

How long has it been since a new elven sage appeared in the Elf Kingdom?

Moreover, this time the ceremony to award the honor of the Elf Sage was not held in the Elf Royal Court but in the Emerald City, which made many elves quite curious.

In the past, such events were very important rituals in the Elf Kingdom!
However, when some elves discovered that the person who was awarded the title of elven sage this time was named Lis Kane, they couldn't help but become quite curious.

This name
It doesn't sound like an elf's name, but more like a human's name?

Could it be that the one who becomes the Elf Sage this time is a human?
This has never happened in the history of the Elf Kingdom, right?
Many elves asked the official who made the announcement about the identity of the elven sage, but the official of the Elf Council did not respond and just left.

This also aroused many people's interest in the newly emerged Lis Kane.

Especially for those caravans and traveling merchants from the human kingdom, if a human really became an elf sage, it would be a great novelty!

Anyway, the Elf Council did not restrict others' qualifications to spectate the Elf Sage's Awarding Ceremony in the Elf Temple, which is why many people came here today, waiting for the awarding ceremony to begin.

In these days, there are rumors that this human named Lis Kane was in the Elf King's Court when the Demon Prince destroyed it.

It also prevented the Demon Prince from extending his evil hands to other elven cities.

It is also for this reason that he, as a human, was awarded the honor of elven sage by the elven gods.

This would explain why a human could become an elven sage.

But many people, even those merchants from the human kingdom, do not quite believe this rumor.

After all, it was said that this Sage Li Si was just a gold-level professional, not even a legend. It was too absurd to believe that he could stop the terrifying and powerful Demon Prince.

Many people came here today to see what this legendary elf sage looks like.

Even though the ceremony had not yet begun, the Elf Temple had gathered more people than usual.

Fortunately, this is the Elf Temple, a hall specially used for holding various ceremonies and celebrations, and not a place to worship the elven gods.

Therefore, the servants of the Elf Temple did not stop the noise from the coming and going people.

It just so happens that the Emerald City also needs such a grand ceremony to eliminate the anxiety and fear in people's hearts about the destruction of the Elf King's Court.

The ceremony of bestowing the Elven Sage upon the Elven Master was held in the largest hall of the Elven Temple, and many elves had been busy preparing for it for several days.

In addition to being filled with the natural and sacred atmosphere of the past, every corner of the temple has been decorated with various exquisite and gorgeous decorations, as if even the air is dyed with festive colors.

Under the high dome of the temple, there are dazzling gems inlaid, like the brightest stars in the night sky. The sunlight shines through the glass into the church, illuminating the entire temple with splendor.

The light veil hanging from the top of the hall dances in the wind, white as snow and light as mist, adding a touch of softness and fantasy to this solemn holy place. Wreaths and vines are entwined on the stone pillars and arches, and the blooming flowers exude a faint fragrance, attracting colorful butterflies to dance.

In the center of the hall, there is a shining altar made of pure gold, inlaid with various gems, as gorgeous as a rainbow. Around the altar, there is a huge wreath woven with flowers, each of which is carefully selected, colorful and exudes a refreshing fragrance.

All these things show that the Elf Temple is concerned about today

The gentle laughter and conversations of the elves and humans participating in the ceremony intertwined together, making the originally quiet atmosphere of the temple instantly much more cheerful.

The sound of music sounded melodiously. It was the melody played by the elves on ancient musical instruments. It was melodious and pleasant, as if it could cleanse people's souls.

After the music started, everyone quickly fell silent.

They knew that the ceremony was about to begin!

Thump~thump~
Crisp footsteps were heard, and two figures walked out from the passage at the back of the hall.

Everyone looked over and saw two figures slowly walking towards them, surrounded by several servants.

Many people recognize the elf-like old man with gray hair and a smile walking in front.

This is Lord Julian, the Speaker of the Elven Council of the Emerald City.

He is also an important figure in the Emerald Capital.

Walking side by side with him was a young and handsome human youth, whose aura was no less impressive than that of the Elf Speaker.

Human youth?

Many people reacted instantly and stared at him.

This should be the new elven sage, Lis Kane, right?

Feeling the gazes of countless people present, Li Si continued to move forward under the leadership of Julian without changing his expression.

Are you kidding? He has seen grand scenes like those in the Elf King’s Court. What’s this situation now?
Following Julian's footsteps, Li Si soon arrived at the altar.

Julian and Lis walked up the steps of the altar side by side, stopped and turned around.

Looking at the elf servants who were saluting respectfully below, as well as the humans and elves who were staying obediently in the distance with curiosity in their eyes.

Julian showed a hint of emotion in his eyes, and then spoke loudly.

"Quiet!"

Julian's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.

The last trace of noise in the hall completely dissipated, and it was so quiet that one could almost hear the breathing of the people around him.

But this solemn atmosphere made many people hold their breath, as if they were worried that they would be impolite if they were not careful.

Julian looked around and said in a deep voice:

"I, Julian Yunus, am honored to be here today and preside over the awarding ceremony of the honor of Elf Sage on behalf of the Emerald City Elf Council."

“May the Most High Corellon lead the future of the elves and show us the way!

"May the gaze of the goddess Fenriya grant us wisdom and protect us as we move forward!"

Julian softly chanted the names of the gods to show the formality and solemnity of the ceremony.

As Julian finished speaking, all the elves present bowed their heads and prayed, offering their faith to the elven gods.

Seeing this, Li Si also lowered his head in unison.

If you really count, he is at most a shallow believer of the goddess Fenriya. However, because he is the favored of the world tree Yggdrasil, the elves don't care about this.

There is a special reason why Julian mentioned the names of these two gods.

The name of the elven god Corellon appears in all ceremonies related to the elven gods, which represents his supreme status and power in the elven pantheon.

As for the moon goddess Fenriya, it is natural to mention this elven goddess because Li Si's title of "Elf Sage" was bestowed by this deity.

In the world of Gaia, mentioning the names of the gods is not disrespectful to the gods.

Like the ceremony currently held in the Elf Temple, mentioning the names of the gods is, on the one hand, an offering of the believers' faith to the gods, and on the other hand, it is directing the target of the ceremony to these two gods in order to obtain special blessings and protection from the gods.

Gradually, dots of emerald green and white starlight appeared in the air above the temple, as if covering the entire temple with a layer of sacred veil.

Under the influence of the power of gods, many people felt much more relaxed physically and mentally, and their faith in gods became more firm.

Li Si didn't have any special feeling. After all, as a follower of the World Tree, ordinary blessings had no effect on his body.

"Here today, the goddess will crown Lis Kane with a crown of wisdom, put on a cloak of victory, and grant him the honor of [Elf Sage]!"

"Les Kane, he bravely stepped on the thorny journey and created an immortal legend in the city of Drano."

"His courage and wisdom are like the bright stars in the night sky, illuminating the lost path in the darkness, defeating the evil plot of the demon prince Demogorgon, and ending destruction and death in the Elf King's Court!"

"His achievements are as magnificent as an epic, forever recorded in the annals of the kingdom, forever embedded in the sky of history, illuminating the path of those who came after him, and becoming a spiritual beacon that inspires countless elves!"

Julian narrated Li Si's achievements in a hymn-like tone, giving people an invisible sense of grandeur and sacredness.

It seems as if one can see the tiny figure of Li Si standing alone in the Elf King's court, fearlessly facing the evil and terrifying Demon Prince, and boldly swinging the sword in his hand in a tragic scene.

This solemn atmosphere dispelled the doubts of those who doubted Li Si and made them feel secretly ashamed.

Since the Speaker said so, it must be true!
This is equivalent to admitting that Li Si, as a human, played the most important role in the destruction of the Elf Royal Court, while other powerful elves did nothing at all.

In such a formal occasion, which could even be regarded as a guarantee for Li Si with the honor of the elves, how could anyone doubt the truthfulness of what Julian said?
But others didn't know that what Julian said was true, he just told only part of the truth and used this part to cover up another more important part of the story.

Li Si stood quietly aside without showing any special reaction.

He realized that the rumors about him in the Emerald City a few days ago and the grand and formal ceremony in the Elf Temple today were all aimed at eliminating the negative impact of the destruction of the Elf Royal Court and dispelling the panic in the Elf Kingdom as much as possible.

Is it Julian's idea, or the idea of ​​the great elf sage Adela?
It seems that the destruction of the Elf King's Court has brought a severe impact on the Elf Kingdom.

Even now, the top leaders of the Elf Kingdom dare not let everyone know the whole truth.

Otherwise, the resulting despair may lead to more serious consequences.

Otherwise, how could those corrupt followers of the evil god who worship destruction and chaos not be completely eliminated?

But Li Si didn't care, which was also good for him.

This is equivalent to directly raising his reputation in the elven kingdom to a quite exaggerated level.

From today on, Li Si may be the most respected human among the elves.

Julian stopped talking, took a step forward and took the tray from the servant beside him.

On it lay a folded emerald green cloak, with tiny magic gems sparkling like brilliant stars.

Julian gently shook open the emerald green cloak, and Li Si saw the silver world tree emblem embroidered on the robe.

Then, Julian personally put the emerald green cloak on Li Si.

Li Si felt a special magical power surging into his body, making him feel much more energetic.

Ok?
What a good thing!

Just as Li Si was expressing his emotionless admiration for the generosity of the Elf Kingdom, Julian said:

"Please put the crown of the sage on Li Si!"

In the eyes of everyone, all the emerald green and silver-white light rushed towards Li Si's head and continued to converge.

When the light faded, a crown made up of silver-white branches and emerald green leaves appeared above Li Si, slowly fell towards Li Si, and was placed on his head.

This laurel leaf crown is a masterpiece of exquisite craftsmanship, perfectly combining elegance and nobility.

The silvery-white branches serve as the skeleton, like a stream flowing under the moonlight, shimmering with a cool and mysterious luster, tough yet soft, lightly outlining the contours of the crown.

On these silvery branches, emerald green leaves grow luxuriantly, and each leaf is like a carefully carved jade, crystal clear and full of vitality.

These branches and leaves are intertwined and arranged in an orderly manner, forming pieces of emerald green clouds that lightly cover the crown, adding a bit of freshness and vitality to this noble headdress.

The laurel leaf is regarded as a symbol of victory and glory by the elves. Every leaf on the crown seems to speak of endless glory and splendor.

The crystal-like green leaves on the crown seem to sway in the wind, which is nature's noblest hymn to the wearer.
