Mixed Blessing System

The golden glow of Lothur’s inscriptions became so intense that everyone around that underground chamber shielded their eyes for an instant, thinking that it was going to explode.

However, as everyone prepared for the spiritual shock of that weapon, still under the effects of Lothur’s Gravity, the glow began to diminish significantly.

Looking toward the staff and crystal, one of those level 17 formations masters swallowed his saliva, and his eyes widened.

As others did the same, feeling parts of their bodies tremble, a new weapon appeared from the fusion with the Blood Crystal!

The crystal could no longer be seen, but from its fusion with the Elemental Staff, a weapon in a whole new shape appeared in that underground chamber.

At one end, this weapon still resembled Lothur’s staff, but with a black metallic body embossed with lighter shades of black, which gave the impression of being flames.

Going further up the handle of this weapon, little by little, the black of the weapon gave way to orange until the middle of the handle became completely red, where part of the Blood Crystal could be seen lodged.

However, the weapon did not end there. Following a little further down the handle, one would see the major change this weapon had undergone, where in place of another end similar to the first was now the connection of the handle with a curved blade.

This blade was by no means small and was half the size of the handle itself, originating from the Elemental Staff.

On it, there was also an embossing on its shining silver blade, following the same pattern of flames as on the underside of its handle.

Lothur saw it and smiled satisfyingly, quickly touching his creation.

[Darkness Scythe] [Rank: Platinum]

[Description: This item can manipulate the elements in repellent ways and create attacks based on the element of darkness, corrupt souls, and spectres.

[Feature: increases the user’s attack power by 100%.]

…

[River of Souls] [Rank: Platinum]

[Description: This ability shows itself in the form of a water wheel of darkness, which the user can use to force the reincarnation of lost souls as spectres.]

Upon reading all this about this weapon, Lothur was amazed! ｂ𝚍ｎｏ𝚟ｌ.

Weapons normally had no secondary abilities, even if they were of the highest level.

Abilities were characteristic only of living beings or unique natural artifacts, like the magnificent items of this world and Soul Bones.

The fusion of the Elemental Staff with one of the unique jewels of this world has given rise to such a powerful ability!

Reading this, Lothur was fully aware that the characteristics of this weapon had a lot to do with his own abilities because he had produced it.

He moved it around, familiarizing himself with the weapon.

‘Incredible! It’s very light!’ He smiled, feeling immense compatibility and desire to infuse his Black Flames into that item.

Meanwhile, all those men in that room were watching Lothur’s scythe move, feeling chills in their souls as they saw it.

They all had already realized who he was and his current shocking level of soul cultivation. But producing that weapon was an even more incredible feat!

Gulp!

“What are you going to do?” One of them asked in fear.

Lothur stopped what he was doing and looked at that person. “Nothing. I thank you for collecting that crystal for me. Now my weapon is complete. Goodbye.”

With those words, he left that place with a smile, crossing the ruins’ walls and soon arriving outside, where the battle between the emperor and Daemon had taken a new turn in the last few moments.

As Lothur produced his weapon, both sides on the battlefield realized that the Blood Crystal had been successfully fused into something!

Sensing that, as Daemon moved to grab his weapon, Emperor Leopoldine did the same to prevent anyone from using such a weapon.

But just as the two were about to enter the area’s ruins, they both noticed Lothur leaving from there with a terrifying scythe in one of his hands.

The two immediately stopped to look at him, who was not hiding now.

“Lothur!” They both shouted as they recognized this young man.

“Thanks for the gift, guys. Now I have some business to attend to. I hope you will still be alive when I return. We will talk then.” Lothur smiled at the two before spinning his scythe in the air and striking out in the direction of the two.

“Shit!”

Daemon and the emperor realized the intent of this shameless young man, and both of them circulated their energies to evade Lothur’s attack as quickly as possible.

As they did so, two black blades broke from the Darkness Scythe, making everyone on the battlefield feel cold in their souls as they looked with shock at that.

That was a terrifying blow!

‘Is that the power of a Platinum-grade weapon?’

Some wondered as they saw such attacks slicing through the space fabric towards the emperor’s and Daemon’s bodies.

Lothur disappeared from the area as his attacks to ward off those two took their courses, no longer delaying and setting off towards the north of Concordia.

It was finally time for him to leave Leopoldine and fulfill his mission!

As he moved, those two dealt with Lothur’s attack, suffering to survive but escaping the worst.

When that happened, the battle between the two sides was totally thwarted, and the people there no longer had any reason to keep fighting.

Both sides looked to where Lothur had fled, searching for traces of this young man who had not shown his soul power by showing himself to his grandfather and father.

Daemon clenched his fists, and his father looked at him, sighing. “It looks like we’ve both been tricked, hahaha.”

“If he had asked me, it would have been fine, but this ungrateful son simply stole my Platinum-grade weapon!” Daemon didn’t like that at all.

The Emperor, on the other hand, was delighted. Nothing better than Lothur taking that weapon away from Daemon!

With this, he would no longer worry about his eldest son causing chaos in the empire. As for Lothur, this young man had never been one to deliberately cause trouble, so with that weapon in his hands, the emperor was not so concerned.

The emperor liked his grandson’s personality a lot!

Then, he laughed at Daemon’s misfortune, looking at where his grandson had disappeared, greatly relieved.
