Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 871 Extermination Plan

While the strongest defenders of that surrounded city wondered what had happened to one of the strongest demon hunters there, Lothur arrived at his destination alongside a level 25 old man.

Lothur let go of the level 25 Sage's neck as he appeared on the top of a mountain thousands of miles from the city, floating in midair as he looked at the old man.

From Lothur's perspective, he could see 10 vibrant essences of spiritual energy in the body of this demon hunter from the Seraphim Church.

Meanwhile, the old man looked around, not understanding what had just happened.

But sensing Lothur's powerful aura, this old man with more than 80,000 Soul points couldn't focus on anything but the hybrid.

"That... What happened? Why are we here? Why did the Senior bring me here?" He asked as he looked respectfully at Lothur.

Even though this young hybrid was much younger than him and had been an enemy until recently, age didn't determine seniority in Concordia. Power was all that mattered, and Lothur currently had much more power than this old man.

Aware of this, the old man didn't dare to rise to speak at the same level as Lothur but looked up as he waited for the answer from the probably second most powerful man in the world.

Lothur pondered for a moment, seeing two Soul Bones in the old man's body, compatible with two of his women.

'If I take these bones and add them to the ones I already have, I'll be able to help Rebecca, Elke, Annaliese, and Viktoria reach 90% of their Spirit Bodies.' Lothur pondered, regretting that the old man's Diamond-grade bone came from a part of the body he didn't have room to assimilate.

Fortunately, Viktoria could absorb that bone!

As for the other one, it was Platinum grade, good enough for Lothur's other women.

Lothur then closed his eyes and said in a solemn tone. "Forget this city and everyone there. With the Demon Emperor, they will all die. Those who don't die in battle will be devoured. As for their bones, they will be destroyed."

The old man swallowed his saliva as he thought about the fate of all those living beings but also how much the coalition would lose from all of this.

He became angry at the thought and shouted. "Senior, may I ask why you brought me along? I understand that someone of your stature must try to become stronger in order to defeat the Demon Emperor. But this old man here was willing to die fighting the demons! I didn't want to be saved!"

"I didn't save you, old demon hunter." Lothur opened his eyes. "I saved your Soul Bones, which would have been destroyed if you had stayed behind."

"Uh?" The old man opened his mouth, realizing what Lothur was really up to.

"Old man, I'll give you a chance. If you still want to fight the demons, I'll turn you into a conscious spectre with almost as much soul power as you have now.

However, I will take all your Soul Bones and your freedom. You will never be able to reincarnate, and you may be considered an enemy by your friends. But you will have the chance to continue fighting or even see the demons end." Lothur said as he drew his Darkness Scythe, raising his aura to prevent the old man before him from doing anything to harm him.

Lothur had long held a grudge against the Seraphim Church, as well as some of the continent's beast races, for the destruction of the precious Diamond-grade Soul Bone he had nearly absorbed months ago.

He still wanted to receive equal compensation from the Seraphim Church. Yet, given the current situation on the continent, he hadn't acted against that old man because of it.

The Demon Emperor was too powerful. Not only that but from what Lothur had seen in the group that was about to attack the previous city, the enemy was getting stronger and stronger.

Therefore, he wanted to help his women reach level 26 as soon as possible so that together, they could put an end to the demonic threat before it was too late.

He said to the old man, seeing him turn as pale as a sheet of paper.

"Old man, I will use your bones to create four 5th Catastrophe Sages. With them at my side, I can leave them in charge of Concordia while I personally go to Demon Island to exterminate the enemy race.

That will make me stronger, but it will also draw the Demon Emperor to me, which could ease the tension on the continent and help us win the war. But for all this, I need your bones." 

Lothur said, explaining to the old man what was about to happen. "The choice I've given you is only to help you see the end of the demons or the end of mankind. One or the other will happen soon, so this is your last chance.

Either you will never have the chance to see the end of the demons because they will have been eliminated by the time you reincarnate, or there will be no humans to reincarnate because the demons will have won the war. 

Your only chance to witness the final confrontation between humans and demons is through the alternative I've presented to you. Either way, I will take your Soul Bones, so don't get your hopes up."

The old man's trembling hands suddenly became firm while the look in his eyes changed.

He didn't want to give his bones to this hybrid. But after hearing Lothur's motives, he couldn't doubt the hybrid's words or even his plan.

Lothur didn't have to tell him any of it. But by doing so, he demonstrated his genuine interest in destroying the demons, which was the life goal of this old man, one of the strongest elders in the Seraphim Church.

Then he said. "All right, let's do what you suggest. I was going to die anyway. As for becoming a spectre, given the current state of the Wheel of Reincarnation, that was a certainty.

However, even if it didn't, I would still choose that path a thousand times over if I had to. Better to become your spectre than miss the chance to see the end of the demon race!" His eyes lit up as he remembered things from more than 40,000 years ago when he had started his journey. 

"Hmm, you made the right decision, old man." Vicente moved his Darkness Scythe and landed a swift blow on the neck of this level 25 man.
