Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 804 Back on the Hunt?

After Cykad had isolated himself for a while, he would finish sending out all the communiqués to his men scattered throughout the northern region of Concordia.

Not only would they have to locate and map the spectres, but they would also have to gather evidence of the creatures' actions.

At the moment, Cykad could do nothing to gather a force to defend Concordia. The enemy of the mainland forces at the moment was Lothur, so any contact he tried to make in the short term would end in more trouble for everyone.

But things could be very different once Lothur grew stronger and headed for Demon Island.

With Cykad doing this with an eye to the future and Lothur's women trying to focus on cultivation while he finished what he was doing, hours would pass in the blink of an eye.

With the end of the night, a new day would dawn, and once the day was half over, the young Ritter would finish his hours of alchemical production.

As he finished producing the last of the resources he would leave for his mother, he took a deep breath and realized that everything was as he had planned.

He said, drawing the attention of those watching him. "These are Platinum-grade pills and potions. They are possibly the most valuable on this continent.

With them, all the elements in the body of the one who consumes them will be strengthened by between 80% and 160%. But all the understanding regarding this world of the one who absorbs just one of them will also jump by a similar proportion.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that a Saint could reach the peak of this stage with these pills."

Upon hearing this, Fabienne's subordinates were impressed by how far Lothur had come, and they believed him entirely as they could feel the medicinal power of these resources.

Fabienne wasn't too worried about how far she would get, but since her son wanted her to take these pills, she would do her best to take advantage of the opportunity.

When she received them from Lothur, she thanked him. "Thank you for this, Lothur. I hope to show you the results of these pills and potions one day."

"Hmm." He nodded at her and prepared to leave. "What are you going to do now?"

"I will find a peaceful place to watch you from a distance." She smiled at him motherly.

Lothur then said. "You should look for Daemon. I don't know about your relationship, but he cares about you. He asked me to help you before I left on my journey."

Hearing this, Fabienne was surprised. "He did?"

Daemon and Fabienne had a long history. Having known each other for decades, they had lived together for a long time until one day she became pregnant.

As beings who had already committed a great sin just by venturing out sexually together, the primordial taboo was no big deal to them. On the contrary, they had become even happier and more in sync after the pregnancy.

However, things changed shortly after Lothur's birth when they considered what they wanted for their son.

As a hybrid, Lothur would only have a short time before he showed the bloodlust typical of these beings. Once that happened, there would be no turning back for him, and he would likely die pursued by demon hunters.

Not wanting that for Lothur but disagreeing on how to help him, the two lovers quarreled and finally parted before the young man was sent to Peters City with someone they both trusted.

Since then, Fabienne and Daemon had been like cats and dogs, battling many times over the years.

When she heard Lothur's words, Fabienne was taken aback and couldn't help but smile subtly.

"I will think about it. Now go, don't hesitate with your plans. You've got too many enemies to keep talking nonsense to me."

With these words from his mother, Lothur left the area with his group, heading for another of his demonic targets, the one closest to where they were.

"We have two targets in Norid that aren't being watched. As far as I know, there's no sniffer between them, so we shouldn't have any problems." Cykad commented to Lothur.

"This is good. What about the spectres? Were you able to talk to their people?" Lothur asked.

"So they heard us?" Cykad wasn't surprised to see Lothur nod in agreement. "Don't worry, my people are already searching for them. I've assigned more beasts to the task and raised their level of concern about the spectres. We should have some relevant information in the next few days."

At the moment, finding spectres on this continent was not as difficult as one might imagine. Although cases like the one in Peters City months ago were still rare, the appearance of spectres in forests and small towns was already common.

If one looked hard enough, it wasn't difficult to find reports and cases of demon hunters involved in the extermination of some spectral beings.

With that in mind, the group moved on to their next target without worrying that they weren't going after it themselves.

Trusting in the people of Cykad, Lothur, and his women focused on continuing their demon hunt!

...

In the blink of an eye, three more days would pass...

Lothur and his party defeated three more groups of 4th-stage demons in those days, leaving Norid and returning to Rablus after the second of those three groups.

With a few more Silver and Gold-grade Soul Bones in his spatial ring, Lothur was now a few miles from his women and approaching a group of Saints camped in a forest in Rablus.

With more than 30 Soul Bones in his ring, he and his people had no reason to keep accumulating these things.

Their journey was dangerous, and they could face a deadly battle anytime.

With such valuable things for their forces to prepare for the future, they had decided this afternoon that Lothur should find a group to send these bones to Peters City.

After fleeing the area where he had exterminated the last group of demons they had dealt with, Lothur left his people to rest and moved towards this group he had spotted.

Once there, he didn't give them time to realize who he was or that there was a newcomer among them.

Appearing amid this group of Saints, Lothur marked them with his Black Flames, took over their hearts and minds, and made them his slaves.

With this group dominated, he soon ordered them to take a spatial ring to Peters City with the Soul Bones he had collected so far.
