Mixed Blessing System



As Lothur recovered in the Imperial Prison, hours passed, and slowly night was coming to Leopoldine.

But amidst the darkness of night taking the space of daylight, several experts were moving around this state in search of their enemy.

The men of the Church of the Seraphim were scrambling to follow the tracks left by Lothur's mother's subordinates and those she herself had left behind.

Some were already out of Leopoldine, but others were still investigating this territory for clues about their targets.

They had three suspects who were hybrids of demons and humans, so they were following every possible lead.

But they were not focused on finding out much about the past of these youngsters.

As much as there might be relevant things, most likely, what they would find out would be of little help or even a waste of time.

One might think it would be easy to decipher who was the true half-breed among the three since the nobles Fabienne had kidnapped were nobles with known fathers and mothers. Even if one or both of them were dead, people knew them and thought they knew the origin of those two.

But things were not so simple. One of the spouses could lie and have had an affair with a demon and brought a hybrid home.

Anything was possible in this world, so since the three were on the run, all three had been treated as suspects.

But undeniably, Lothur was the greatest suspect of all since few knew his origin.

The men of the Church already knew that Lothur was Daemon's son and that this man was a human, but no one knew about his mother's situation, which was a big warning sign.

On the other hand, Daemon did not look like the typical father of a half-breed, which also created doubts in these Church people.

For all this, they preferred not to place their suspicions on just one of these young men and were subdividing their forces equally in the search for the three!

...

After the time that had passed since the end of the Secret Realm, the Supreme Pontiff of the Seraphim Church had finally joined the search for Lothur.

At this moment, he was standing next to the High Priest, updating himself on the matter.

"So the three of them are on the run, huh?" That level 21 man, the strongest in the Church, asked as he finished listening to what the High Priest had just told him.

They were both standing in a small makeshift camp in the middle of a forest, where that man longest pursuing Lothur had stopped to eat after more than 10 hours of searching.

The High Priest nodded affirmatively, looking at the strong, blond man in front of him.

"One of them is the one we are after, and the others are probably being taken by force by allies of the damned half-breed." The Supreme Pontiff said, certain of his theory.

"But how do we resolve this situation? Those helping the damn half-breed seem to be very good at what they are doing... So far, my group and I haven't come up with anything useful that could deliver who the real one is."

The leader of the Church nodded and said. "That's demon stuff. Probably a damned demon Emperor is taking it to their headquarters north of the continent...

It will be hard for us to reach them. These people have many ways to escape and act against us.

Not to mention our strange times, which may help this escape even more."

Hearing his leader sigh, the High Priest couldn't help but feel bad, momentarily putting aside the subject of a low-level half-breed to think about his organization's big problem.

For a few decades now, powerful demons have been appearing more and more frequently on the continent, with various Monarchs and Emperors moving in strangely.

Normally demons lived in seclusion and would occasionally leave their territory to hunt humans, satisfy their hunger and get enough to cultivate until they advanced in level.

This created chaos, but it was controlled, and hardly an entire society would be put at risk.

Obviously, this could strike anyone, so the common people and cultivators were afraid when a demon appeared in their territory. But it wasn't something that would threaten the entire human species.

But for a while now, demon sightings had been reported all around Concordia, and these creatures didn't seem to be seeking nutrients but rather on missions.

They were not killing randomly; even near humans, they avoided causing great carnage that would draw too much attention.

Since there were no reports of this happening in the past, these Churchmen were naturally very concerned!

"I hope they are not after the Seven Singularities..." The High Priest said in a low voice, remembering the legends about an ancient Tree that had given birth to seven entities in the remote past of this world.

According to the legends about this Tree, it had arisen along with spiritual energy and laws, created the entire cultivation base of this place, and turned the first mortals into cultivators.

At the same time, a great danger struck this world, almost wiping it out. But at the crucial moment of this catastrophe, one person had killed the seven carriers of the singularities and absorbed all their powers into himself.

From the union of the seven powers, a supreme warrior had emerged, defeated the dangers, and stabilized the situation so that peace and prosperity returned to this world.

Eventually, that person disappeared, and the Seven Singularities were reported lost in this vast world.

To this day, large organizations persecute such remnants of the Lost Tree.

According to some of the stories, only by absorbing one of the singularities could one overcome the catastrophes of the 5th stage and one-day approach immortality.

These men knew these stories, and if these demon movements were because of these things, then a shocking future awaited the entire continent!

Therefore, as they talked about the matter, they couldn't help but worry about the safety of their continent!

The Supreme Pontiff then said. "I hope that's not it. The current leader of the demon tribe is said to be even stronger than me, so if he gets a single one of these singularities, we will face a calamity!"

After those words, the two went back to eating without speaking, trying to let the matter die down and regain their focus on the pursuit of a half-breed.

If a demon with one of the singularities was bad, a loose half-breed wasn't much better!
