Mixed Blessing System

“You said I release something easy to trace and recognize when I use my bloodline, right?” Lothur asked.

“Yes.”

“So when I’m not doing that, I’m invisible?”

“Not entirely,” Fabienne said. “An average person couldn’t use the sensation you release when you are not using your bloodline to track you. But a Saint near you would recognize what you are, even without knowing your position by their senses.

So they could identify you if they were near you, even if you don’t use your powers.”

“But away from me, it would be impossible for them to come to me as long as I don’t use such a thing, right?” He insisted.

“That would be the case… But what is your plan?”

“I have another question.” He still did not answer his mother. “Are there areas that I can use my abilities without this feeling you speak of reaching my enemies? When I got my soul back, I was in a Secret Realm. But that place is not totally separate from the outside world.

But the Imperial Prison contains formations that can contain spiritual energy outside of itself. It probably also works by preventing an insider from feeling the power of people outside of there and vice versa.”

“Oh?” Lothur’s mother understood what he was getting at. “Do you want to go to the Imperial Prison to use your bloodline ability safely?” She asked as she gave the matter some serious thought.

The demons in the surrounding area understood Lothur’s thought and started talking among themselves as well.

“Is it possible…”

“Formations like the one in that place prevent internal and external spiritual fluctuations from exceeding the boundaries of each part.”

“Yes, it wouldn’t make sense that such a place would be so good at containing prisoners if their fluctuations could be felt from the outside… If it weren’t, then their cronies would probably have invaded that place by now.”

“That makes sense. Some men in that prison are supposed to be high-ranking people in states as strong or stronger than this empire.”

Lothur’s mother then said as this young man listened to all that, “Your theory must not be wrong. A Secret Realm doesn’t contain internal spiritual fluctuations to itself. Some of them go beyond the spatial barriers of these regions and reach the continent.

This prison has formations that trap those fluctuations, so using your bloodline inside probably won’t signal your position to enemies. But why would you stay in that place?

Even if you can hide and use your ability, you will never be able to escape there. Plus, the emperor and his family will try to kill you.”

To Fabienne, Lothur was like other hybrids of humans and demons.

These hybrids before Lothur were not able to absorb the powers of cultivators in the same way as this young man. Instead, they had to literally devour the bodies of their victims and then slowly absorb their powers, using spiritual energy from the surroundings to consolidate these new powers.

In short, this had to be done through spiritual meditation, something difficult to accomplish in a place practically barren of energy!

Hence, in this woman’s view, Lothur would never achieve much in that prison and would be in the hands of people dangerous to him.

He said. “I have my own plans. I feel that running away toward Demon Island will only cause me more trouble, and it would be much harder for me to get stronger…

Anyway, I plan to use this remaining person to secretly take me there.

Suppose I enter the imperial prison using a different name. In that case, I can use this situation to forge my escape and direct those people in search of my head away.”

“Oh? That sounds like a good plan.” A level 17 demon said, sensing that his young master was very clever.

“So you want to enter as an ordinary prisoner in the Imperial Prison, directing whoever is after you away from Leopoldine…” Fabienne did not hate this plan, feeling it would be less dangerous for Lothur.

He couldn’t have a great future in the Imperial Prison, but there he should be fine, considering his current strength. Meanwhile, the Seraphim Church men could investigate his disappearance and move on to other states.

She and her men could create tracks leading the Church away from Leopoldine, and in the future, when she becomes a 4th stage demon, she could break into that prison and free him.

She thought about it and said. “Very well, I agree with your plan. I will help you forge your escape. But how do you intend to get into that place without causing suspicion? It won’t be easy to do that.”

Lothur had already recovered some of his strength after ingesting some pills. He walked over to that pentagram formation, which was controlling that level 17 cultivator.

He saw her status.

[Name: ***]

[Soul Cultivation: level 17]

[Body Cultivation: level 12]

[STR: 95] [CON: 110.9] [DEX: 95.2] AGI: 95.6]

[INT: 141.7] [PER: 143.5] [WIL: 122.2] [SOU: 928.9]

Immediately after seeing the status of his enemy, Lothur activated one of his abilities, causing black flames to appear in his hands.

He then floated towards where this woman was under the influence of these formations and placed one of his hands on her forehead.

Those flames entered that woman’s body and, considering her current situation, quickly eroded her mental structures to bring her under Lothur’s control.

After a few moments, having convulsed a bit, that woman’s eyes gained a subtle trace of darkness as Lothur finished conquering yet another slave.

Currently, his mental attributes were too strong for this woman to withstand his domination, so in less than two minutes, she became his slave to obey him.

The demons in the surroundings followed Fabienne’s signaling and deactivated that demon formation, freeing that woman to test if Lothur could control her.

“Master!” Immediately after that, she knelt at Lothur’s feet, showing him her inferior position.

“I want you to take me to the Imperial Prison and register me as Kaiser Krause, an outside invader of the empire.” He ordered before taking a potion capable of changing the colors of his hair and eyes.

After this, his eyes and hair became black as night, enough to make him considerably different and drive away curious onlookers.

Fabienne liked what she saw, noting how prepared Lothur was for this plan he had just come up with. “Okay, fellas, let’s create a fake escape route!” 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

“Okay!” Those demons began to alter the remnants in the surroundings while Fabienne bid Lothur farewell.

“My son, you must go now.” She smiled at him. “But don’t worry, one day I will return to free you from that bad place!”

Lothur said nothing, and after his new slave took a special ID from one of the dead men and put on a mask, she flew off in the direction of the Imperial Prison, leading the way.
