Mixed Blessing System

With the level 21 demon’s final attack, all the battles going on in the surroundings of that area were imperiled.

His final attack was so strong that all the trees for hundreds of meters were cut into countless small pieces while the wind blades indiscriminately attacked everyone there.

Even his allies were not spared, having their bodies sliced by this last attack.

The humans in Lothur’s group also suffered from this enemy move, with all of them having to raise their defenses immediately lest they perish without resistance.

Those closest to that level 21 demon suffered the most and soon emitted sounds of agony, feeling the severe injuries caused by the enemy’s desperate action.

Lothur saw this and swallowed his saliva, noting that this would probably be the end of the battle, but his group would hardly come out of it unscathed.

The level 21 demon’s attacks would not kill the remaining demons, but those creatures were already practically exhausted, and the group of Churchmen would only need to deal one more mortal blow to each of them for Soul Bones to form.

Whoever survived that moment would get the long-awaited bones from such a group!

However, Lothur was satisfied with the end of the fight, as he would survive to absorb at least one of those bones!

Unlike his teammates, he had demon-like regeneration. He quickly began to recover as he suffered wounds from those air blades.

When the end of the typhoon of chaotic winds came, apart from blood marks and cuts on his clothes and armor, no wounds were in sight on Lothur’s body!

The same was not true for the group of elders of the Seraphim Church!

When the level 21 demon’s attack lost its effect, and he fell to the ground with no more strength to continue, Sebastian continued screaming, now missing one of his arms and with half of his right leg cut off.

But he had not suffered the most. Beside him, the second strongest of the group was no longer breathing, having suffered a powerful mortal blow to his chest and lost several of his organs.

The second weakest of the group from the Church lost his head to the final attack of that creature, having had his body brutalized to the point that he looked like a crushed piece of flesh, not a human body.

The other three survived with medium-degree injuries, but the only woman in the group had lost one of her hands and had almost all of her body with small cuts.

She was covered in her own blood, barely able to stand.

“Damn you,m demon!” Sebastian saw the state of his group and cursed the creature with no more strength to resist.

Lothur saw this and moved. “Elder, the rest of the group is exhausted. Let us quickly eliminate these creatures.”

Appearing next to the level 21 demon, Lothur did not allow Sebastian to spend his remaining energy on this opponent. He moved his scythe and decapitated his fallen opponent on the ground!

Swooish!

By having his head cut off, that creature finally lost his life, starting to glow soon after with the formation of his Soul Bone.

Sebastian saw this but understood what ‘Liam’ had in mind.

Everyone was exhausted, but he, the strongest among the survivors, was the only one who could quickly kill all the other demons.

Lothur could try, but since the others were not exhausted like the level 21 demon, he might not be able to defeat them all.

To prevent this from happening, Lothur acted against the already exhausted demon, saving Sebastian’s strength for those remaining creatures.

Noticing this, even with a pained and angry expression, Sebastian moved towards the demons who were regenerating their bodies.

As he did so, the bones of the two Church experts began to glow and separate from their corpses. ．

Lothur saw it and sighed, seeing the resurgence of 11 Soul Bones in those bodies, 3 of them from Monarch demons, 5 from Generals, and 3 from Lords.

Besides those bones, soon all the demons there would meet their end, forming new Soul Bones, 2 from Monarch demons and 4 from Generals.

For the first time, Lothur saw so many bones in front of him!

Some of these bones he already had in his body, but others he had spare space to absorb them!

As he sighed in relief, Lothur suddenly looked up and saw in the direction of one of the mountains, where a beast was looking in the direction of his group.

Noticing the cultivation of that creature, he immediately said, “We have to get out of here. A powerful beast has its eyes on us. If we try to absorb these bones here, they will try to kill us and steal them from us.”

Beasts could not absorb Soul Bones, but these were valuable barter items!

Any creature, able to absorb them or not, would value Soul Bones!

Knowing this, Sebastian gathered the bones of his two dead men and stored them in his spatial ring to divide among his people later.

He took the bones of the dead demons there and said to Lothur, “Choose two, Liam. You did a lot in the battle, and if not for you, perhaps even more of us would have died.”

None of the survivors questioned their leader, and the less wounded soon collected the bodies of their two dead companions.

Lothur looked at those bones and regretted that the bone of the level 18 demon was a skull, one he already had.

Fortunately, the level 21 demon’s Soul Bone was one he didn’t have yet!

After taking the bone he had already chosen before the combat started, Lothur looked at the remaining 4, choosing the one he didn’t have either.

Lothur wasn’t sure whether or not he should absorb this bone, but he would rather have a Soul Bone with him like this than one he couldn’t absorb.

He intended not to absorb it right away and to study the possibility of giving that bone to one of his women. But if he encountered any difficulties on his way, he would not hesitate to absorb it.

Having chosen his two bones, Lothur stored them in his spatial ring, just as Sebastian did with the others.

“Time to go, guys,” Sebastian said to his group before taking a potion to regain some of his strength.

Lothur did the same before saying goodbye to the group. “Friends of the Church, until next time. I will now be on my way to settle an old quest.”

“You’re not coming back with us? Are you sure?” One of the survivors questioned. “It will be safer that way.” He looked sideways, indicating the problem.
