Mixed Blessing System



While some of Lothur's women were experiencing challenging problems in Peters City, he had used his bloodline ability once again, the third since the beginning of Battle Royale.

With this one more activation, he had already killed over 500 Imperial Prison inmates!

He still had a few hundred individuals left to decide their fate, but with the completion of this last absorption of powers, he would finally put an end to the battles that had been occupying the City of Darkness.

Finally, he would have the 100 strongest individuals who had survived this difficult selection to join his forces!

So, having finished absorbing the powers of his enemies and going through yet another spiritual cleansing due to the advancement of yet another one of his resistances, he headed towards the central square of this place where the winning interns were already waiting for him.

[Gold-grade wood resistance.]

[Progress: 1%]

On his way to those people, he saw how his resistance had stabilized at its new rank before looking at his status.

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]

[Bloodline: Life Devourer]

[Soul Cultivation: level 19]

[Body Cultivation: level 19]

[STR: 688.9] [CON: 1,689.7] [DEX: 621.5] [AGI: 759.8]

[INT: 374.2] [PER: 839.9] [WIL: 580.9] [SOU: 1,211.9]

[EVF: 0]

He had improved his Soul power a lot in the past few days, but it still hadn't been enough for him to reach level 20 of soul cultivation.

Considering this experience, Lothur was already aware that the difference between the 4th stage levels was even greater than he had thought before his breakthrough.

However, he was not surprised. The strongest enemy he had faced in this prison had an even stronger soul than his current one. So he had a long way to go to become a stronger soul cultivator.

In any case, his skills related to this attribute improved significantly, and Lothur couldn't complain too much.

So he was by no means dissatisfied when he arrived in the central square of the City of Darkness.

At that place, the 100 people who had won the Battle Royale were already kneeling on the outskirts waiting for him.

Everyone there could feel how strong the Soul power of this hybrid had become in only three days, and they thought it would not stop in the short term.

Because of how easy it was for Lothur to raise his soul power, some of the more skeptical ones before slowly began to believe he could escape from this place.

And with that thought, the desire to subordinate themselves to Lothur had risen many times over!

They were trapped in the Imperial Prison, where they would possibly spend the rest of their lives. If he could get them out, even if he were a hybrid of demon and human, it would be worth serving him and having all the possibilities of the outside world.

Just the fact that they could cultivate outside this place again would be good enough!

On the other hand, those thirsty for power in this place couldn't help but wish to join Lothur when they saw how talented he was.

The legends said that hybrids of demons and humans were everyone's enemies. But the truth was that if one of these were even remotely civilized enough not to attack their own group, many around the world would be willing to join such one.

Many enemies would stand in the way of people associated with such beings, but if he were not weak, as was currently the case with Lothur, many would love the opportunities of someone so powerful and talented.

Among those 100 individuals, at least 10 of them were genuinely happy about the opportunity they were about to receive!

'Next to him, I might become a Saint and still get revenge on the bastards who put me in this place!' One woman thought, considering the 90 years she had lived in this City of Darkness.

'This will be my chance! Next to a hybrid, I will certainly have opportunities to absorb the Soul Bones of the demons he kills and has no interest in!' A middle-aged man on the threshold of level 17 thought, remembering that Lothur already had 5 Soul Bones and would certainly try to complete the set to have a Spirit Body.

There were two ways to obtain Soul Bones. One by fighting demons and killing them and the other against powerful humans who had these bones.

However, the second option was somewhat more difficult to achieve since there were few such humans, and most of them were strong and scattered around the entire continent.

As for hunting demons, as much as there weren't many, there were tribes of demons around the continent. If strong enough people investigated them, surely finding a few of these beings would not be as difficult as fighting humans with good bones.

Lothur then said to those people, smiling in satisfaction at seeing them ready to subordinate themselves to him. "Congratulations, you are the 100 strongest of the survivors of this city! Rejoice, from today, you will be subordinates of someone destined for the peak of cultivation!"

As Lothur spoke, the flames of his second Soul Bone were circling the surroundings, quickly going towards the interior of each of these people.

These flames would not drive them mad, as they had done to others in the past, much less destroy or damage the souls of these 100 people.

By entering the bodies of these men and women kneeling in the surroundings, the Black Flames of Lothur merely corrupted the greedy part of them, removing certain virtues and forcing their loyalty to their new master.

They would not lose their rationality and could still have their own desires, but this could not conflict with their loyalty to Lothur.

At the same time, each of them had a new ambition, to reach the peak in order to better help their master!

Lothur's goal was still to live in peace one day without worrying about worldly matters. So the priority of these 100 new slaves would be to make that dream a reality!

"Master!" They all said after a few seconds, while their eyes had a new trace of darkness and genuine smiles appeared on the faces of the few still not-so-happy ones.

Lothur then gave his first orders to these people. "My people, scour this city and gather up all the items of value you can find. I want you to sort them out and count the quantity of each thing considering its type and quality.

Bring them to me when you have all these items."

"Yes, master!" Those people replied before a small group of them got together and sorted out exactly how they were going to divide up to do this job.

Lothur watched them for a moment, seeing how each of them seemed 100% committed to him.

'It's working well... That's good. I think stimulating their greed was good. It will make them think on their own and come to conclusions about things that I alone wouldn't consider if I were totally controlling them.' He considered, feeling that he had made the right choice.

With that in mind, he decided to go to Rebecca, who should be finishing absorbing her first Soul Bone.
