Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 858 Soul Bones for the Coalition (2)

Lothur quickly ordered the Koch patriarch to direct House Ritter's wing to spy on communications in Leopoldine and other states in the southern region of Concordia, looking for recent cases of cities being ravaged by demons.

Like a subordinate who knows the importance of following his leader's orders, the Koch patriarch wrote down everything he had to do and saw what Lothur was getting at.

Lothur's mission was similar to that of most demons at this early stage of the war. He wanted to go after weaker opponents so as not to draw the attention of stronger ones, devour his targets, and then grow stronger.

The demons were doing this to throw the continent into chaos and create opportunities for the stronger ones. At the same time, Lothur simply wanted to raise his level quickly. That was the major difference between the similar actions of each party.

Understanding how the beings of Concordia, especially Lothur's subordinates, could benefit from this, patriarch Koch placed the utmost importance on it.

'If he acts against these groups, the number of new Soul Bones for our group will increase, and we will become stronger to face the demons!' The old man thought to himself, satisfied at being under Lothur's command again.

"Besides, there's not much for you to do. Just distribute the Soul Bones in this spatial ring to our family members and most important allies." Lothur handed the man the spatial ring containing more than 600 bones.

None of them were compatible or interesting to him and his women, so Lothur didn't leave any of them in the ring.

When the Koch patriarch examined this space storage artifact, he almost had a catastrophic heart attack, feeling the richness of what Lothur had just placed in his hands.

'Fuck! All this?' He thought, seeing how many bones Lothur could pass on to the family in the coming weeks if he did his job properly.

Feeling something different in his being, an eagerness and willingness to work, this man said before returning to his work. "I will distribute these bones wisely. Meanwhile, we'll find the traces of the damned demons as soon as possible!"

...

As Lothur left the Koch patriarch's side to wait for the results right there in the Ritter family's headquarters, a group of demons had just appeared in the sky of Peters City a few hundred meters above the ground.

Ten demons had finished crossing a spatial distortion, and all of them were 5th-stage creatures, beings between levels 23 and 25.

One of them was level 25 and had been one of the people who had encountered Lothur on the fateful day of the young hybrid's death. Meanwhile, two level-24 demons stood next to the other seven level-23 beings.

It was a formidable formation!

But against the opponent they were about to face, such strength was really needed.

"Is this where you saw the human?" The level 25 demon, a woman, asked as she looked down and noticed this large human city.

"Yes, elder. We believe our target is the mother of some of the women of Lothur Ritter, the hybrid killed a few months ago." One of the level 23 demons that had been operating in this city earlier said, pointing in Mabel's direction.

"Oh?" One of the two level 24 elders was a little surprised to hear that name again, not expecting such strong connections from that guy in their path.

"That's not strange." One of the two commented. "The Demon Emperor's chosen one should have fantastic abilities. He probably used some of his powers to strengthen the women in his family."

The level 25 woman thought that was the only explanation for why some beings connected to Lothur were so strong and nodded in agreement.

"Since she's connected to him, we have another reason to capture her here!" She said as she walked towards the headquarters of the Ritter Motor Company, ignoring the various sages around Peters City.

Her mission there was very simple. Capture Mabel alive and bring her to the Demon Emperor for him to devour her!

When they realized where she was, all the demons moved and began their mission in Peters City without bothering the locals, appearing in the city's center as if it were nothing.

Immediately after the ten moved, the greatest experts in Peters City today noticed extremely powerful auras moving through the city, auras charged with darkness.

Mabel was their target, so she was one of the first to notice the arrival of the enemies in her city, and she did not hesitate to leave the Ritter Motor Company headquarters building to meet the group of demons there for them.

When the creatures arrived at the edge of the most beautiful building in the city center, the local Sages also appeared, creating a rather tense situation, each side moving their energies in preparation for an attack.

"Are you here for me?" Mabel asked as she glared at the strongest woman in the enemy group, who had a soul force many times her own.

"Surrender, and we'll spare the rest of your companions today." The woman from the demon tribe said aloud.

If there was a chance that they could leave with Mabel without having to fight, it would be great for the demons. As strong as they were, it wouldn't be easy to fight them.

They thought that Mabel had the high physical strength to be able to have a level 25 soul cultivation while her soul power was weak. As such, it wouldn't be easy to deal with her, and some of them might die or fail in all their attempts if they weren't careful.

Therefore, they didn't attack right away but rather tried to instill fear in their enemies and resolve the situation without too much bloodshed.

"Tsk! Fucking demons! They think we're going to take their word for it. If they want something here, they should fight for it!" A local level 24 Sage brandished before activating a skill from one of his bones, initiating the confrontation of experts over this city.

"If you want to die so badly, let us help you!" One of the level 24 demons glared at the human, also moving as he activated his skill.

Mabel didn't stay behind. In the situation she was in, in order to fulfill her goals of protecting the city and its future, she only had the option of fighting and defeating as many of these creatures as possible.

She then approached the level 23 demons and poured all of her soul power into the Strength attribute, determined to use her physical advantage against these creatures to weaken them.

Once they were weakened, even the late 4th-stage demon hunters in this city could endanger the lives of these creatures.

"Die!" She shouted as she moved much faster than anyone else in this area, making the level 25 demon tribe woman struggle to keep up with her in the initial moment of battle.
