Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 794 Destinations

When he saw Lothur again, Cykad breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling better after the weeks of worry he’d had.

If Lothur had died, he would have lost an important ally in the fight against the demons, someone who not only shared the same goal as him but also had great talent.

As much as Cykad didn’t move to help Lothur, he worried and thought about what his ally should be, hoping that one day he would return so they could continue their hunt.

Looking at Lothur, the dinosaur couldn’t help but smile.

“Hmm, it’s good to see you again, Cykad.” Lothur got up from where he was while Rebecca and Viktoria looked at this huge creature before them, seeing the ally their man had made.

“Well, I’m here to do what I promised. Are you ready to hunt demons?” Lothur asked, eager to get started.

Cykad said excitedly. “Of course I am! I’ve been looking for this for longer than you can imagine, young man!

I have the location of several groups of demons, including some high-ranking ones who can even help you with useful Soul Bones for you or your women.”

Lothur’s eyes lit up, and he asked. “Where are they? I’d like to hunt them down right now.”

“I understand your haste, but we can’t do that,” Cykad explained. “My friend, some human Sages are letting demons loose on the continent so that you will make the mistake of hunting them down to strengthen yourself.

If we go after the strongest ones at the beginning of our journey, we’ll not only attract the attention of all the demons around Concordia but also the humans and high-level beasts who are looking for you.”

A hybrid could strengthen itself by devouring the bodies of living creatures, using resources like humans and beasts, and absorbing Soul Bones. Therefore, there was nothing better for such beings to use to strengthen themselves than demons. 𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚕．𝚘𝚛𝚐

Thus, the Sages of the continent searching for Lothur’s tracks ignored the demons’ movements to force him to show himself when hunting these creatures.

Knowing how tempting these creatures could be to someone with space in their Spirit Body, Lothur’s enemies kept an eye out for some high-level demons that roamed the continent.

“Oh?” Lothur wasn’t shocked to hear this, as it was a strategy that made perfect sense to the group hunting him.

“Then what can we do? If we can’t hunt them, what can we do?” Rebecca asked.

But then Cykad smiled. “Who said we can’t hunt them? I just said we can’t start with the strongest ones that are being watched the most.

However, several other demons of lesser rank and cultivation are currently operating around the continent without being observed. I have the location of several of them, which we can use to strengthen him a bit more and better prepare for the ones that really matter.” He said, pointing at Lothur.

Lothur understood this Tyrannosaurus Rex’s plan and didn’t think it was a bad one. Even if he couldn’t absorb the Soul Bones that these less relevant demons would produce, he could still strengthen himself with them, which was better than nothing!

“But Cykad, I’d like to ask you to help me find someone as well.” He said, remembering what he had discussed with his father before leaving the Three Great Lakes Region. “I want to find my mother. She helped me, and maybe because of her, I’m still alive. Hence, I want to find her and help her.”

Cykad hated demons and obviously wanted this race to end. But as much as he disliked Lothur’s compassion for one of these demons, he couldn’t help but like his request.

Lothur was a hybrid of human and demon, beings usually known for their cruelty, usually capable of devouring their own parents when they reached a certain level. So young Ritter’s compassion and concern for Fabienne’s well-being was a better sign than it might seem.

It confirmed that he was different from the other hybrids!

Even though he would have preferred to eliminate all demons, Cykad accepted Lothur’s request. “I can help you with that. I may already have her location. I just need her information to find this if one could change one’s appearance or hide one’s aura.

After hearing this, Cykad promised Lothur to give him a result as out.”

“Hmm…” Lothur nodded before telling him what Fabienne was like, about her level and her aura, things that could not be changed even if one could change one’s appearance or hide one’s aura.

After hearing this, Cykad promised Lothur to give him a result as soon as possible. However, since this depended on his men finding out for him, it would still be a few days before they would know if they had her location.

In any case, even if they didn’t have her, Cykad promised to help Lothur find her, and as soon as he had the information, he would help him get to Fabienne safely.

Once that was settled, they decided to leave this demon-free area to finally begin their journey.

Lothur added another important point to his plans in the middle of their movement.

“I also want to take care of the spectres.” He said to the dinosaur as he ran through the forest alongside the creature and the four women. “Remember I said spectres were after my weapon?”

“Yes, you mentioned a castle of shadows…”

“Well, I want to deal with that problem as well. Spectres and demons are side by side, pursuing the same goal. If we’re going to fight one, we have to deal with the other, or nothing will come of it.” Lothur said seriously. “Then I want your people to search for at least 4th stage spectres.

I want to use them to get to the strongest of these forces and find their headquarters.”

“All right,” Cykad said.

Finding information about this castle and high-level spectres would be difficult. But finding traces of 4th-stage beings wouldn’t be so complicated.

Since Lothur had a weapon capable of destroying them and was already at the 5th stage, Cykad wasn’t afraid of the spectres the young hybrid would face.

Certainly, the creatures Lothur wanted to deal with were within his reach, which meant that the risks for him would be less now than they would have been before the young Ritter reached the 5th stage.

So they continued south, heading for the first of Cykad’s targets, a group of low-level 4th-stage demons that were not being watched by either humans or demons.

But as they moved, a group of beings from the Ancestral Region were already following in their footsteps, silently stalking them!
