I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 653: Smoke Before the War of Resistance



Small world [Swamp Lizard Man Nest],

In the Water Snake Tribe,

Lizardman High Priest Kuxue looked at Jasper in front of her and softly said:

"The entire world is facing a crisis now, and only you are the last hope."

"I hope to receive your help!"

Jasper looked at Kuxue, momentarily stunned.

In his eyes, this female lizardman, though not tall, had a dynamic sense, with a petite yet well-proportioned figure, like a little elf flitting through the forest.

Her skin had a unique watery pink hue, like petals moistened by morning dew, soft yet vibrant with life. In the sunlight, it glowed with a gentle luster, appearing extraordinary.

Kuxue's eyes were bright and spirited, resembling two dazzling gemstones, gleaming with wisdom and light. Those eyes seemed to hold endless stories and secrets; each blink as if narrating knowledge from history. Her eyelashes fluttered lightly like fine wings, adding softness and mystery to her bright eyes.

In Jasper's view, the High Priestess Kuxue exuded a wild yet alluring charm, irresistibly drawing one closer to learn more about her.

For a moment, Jasper felt his heart moved.

He swore he'd never felt anything like this before.

Jasper had traveled through many parts of Isaac Great Forest, seen all sorts of races besides lizardmen, experiencing many wonderful things.

Upon achieving hero status and returning to Water Snake Tribe, his brother Ymir had talked with him.

About whether he should end his travels, settle in the Water Snake Tribe, and marry a female lizardman to start a family.

To pass down the lizardman hero's bloodline in the Water Snake Tribe.

Jasper outright rejected Ymir's proposition at the time.

Because he felt, his body and soul already belonged to the whole Isaac Great Forest.

He preferred to go to various places in Isaac Great Forest, experiencing things he'd never seen before.

He didn't want to forever stay in some place, ending his life like that.

But upon seeing Lizardman High Priest Kuxue remove her cloak, Jasper felt his previous thoughts were too immature.

In his eyes, this pink-skinned lizardwoman before him was so beautiful, with an irresistible charm emanating from her entire being.

The enchanting pink skin, intoxicating eyes, the graceful adorable curves, all drew Jasper's gaze.

For a moment, Jasper was smitten.

He suddenly felt all he'd experienced before amounted to nothing, the most beautiful scenic view was now before him.

He wanted to lay eggs with Kuxue!

After Kuxue finished speaking, she waited for Jasper's response.

For instance, why he was sought out?

What is the crisis in the world?

Yet, she didn't receive Jasper's response for a long time, Kuxue looked at Jasper, a bit surprised.

The tall and burly lizardman stood stiff, mouth slightly open, eyes fixedly staring at her.

This?

Kuxue inexplicably took a step back.

But quickly realized.

This lizardman hero Jasper was different from previous lizardmen.

His eyes didn't show any aversion due to her special skin color, but rather, flashed with intoxication and heat.

Kuxue, who was prepared to respond to Jasper's queries, didn't know what to say for a moment.

Could only say, worthy as a hero appearing once in centuries?

Indeed different from other lizardmen.

Like this, Jasper and Kuxue remained silent.

The atmosphere between them suddenly grew awkward.

Not knowing how long went by, Kuxue finally couldn't hold back, put back the cloak she had taken off.

Kuxue looked at Jasper, her words carried slight annoyed undertones, saying:

"Lord Jasper, did you hear what I said?"

"I don't know what you're thinking?"

"... I imagine calling my son Clint, if it's a daughter, calling her Melina..."

At this time, Jasper realized what he had just said.

Noticing Kuxue's beginning-to-be-shy-and-angry eyes, Jasper hurriedly shook his head, waving his hands saying:

"Ah no no no, I didn't mean that!"

"I meant that you, High Priest Kuxue, are very beautiful... ah no, I meant your words made a lot of sense!"

Kuxue looked helplessly at Jasper, while slightly annoyed by Jasper's somewhat frivolous attitude, inexplicably she didn't dislike it.

Perhaps due to Jasper being favored by the world, but his eyes devoid of any dislike, filled with warmth even a somewhat solitary Kuxue found comforting.

It was now that Jasper truly understood the silly thing he'd just done.

Thinking to explain himself, but instead chose plain honesty, saying:

"Sorry, High Priest Kuxue, I didn't clearly hear what you were saying."

"Indeed because you're too beautiful, making me..."

"Alright, no need to say any more!"

Kuxue quickly stopped Jasper from continuing.

Continuing any further, forget Jasper, even she felt unbearable, her usually cold body temperature began to rise unusually.

"What I said earlier is, this time our world is facing a huge crisis. We need your help!"

Kuxue made efforts to calm down, continued speaking to Jasper.

"I understand now."
