Mixed Blessing System

While the High Priest of the Seraphim Church was taking action in Peters City, Lothur’s mother moved separately from her subordinates in Leopoldine.

After creating a scenario of Lothur’s escape, this woman’s men immediately began their northward journey, creating the escape route for that young man.

They could do this alone, so Fabienne quickly separated from them to focus on improving her son’s chances of survival once he left the Imperial Prison in the future.

For all she knew, the Seraphim Church should already be investigating Lothur’s situation, as they were the most interested in ending him. However, there were eight possibilities from that organization’s point of view for the one they were pursuing.

Until they were investigated, no one could with certainty say that Lothur was the damned half-breed hated by everyone in this world.

So as someone who had information about the Secret Realm from each of the provinces in this state and kept up to date on Leopoldine’s news because of her son, she was moving into the Holland Province.

The Holland Province was where Leopoldine’s most powerful noble families and the empire’s capital were.

From there left, 4 of the 6 youths from outside the Linn Province had entered the Secret Realm, of which 2 had returned alive from that place.

They should be returning to their homes by now, so she was quickly moving to intercept them.

Her goal was simple, to finish them both off and create escape trails to split the Church’s search!

Lothur’s situation would still be the most problematic, given how he had left Peters City and fled Transcendents. But such a thing would give him some breathing room once he left the Imperial Prison in the future.

That was the goal of this woman, who was very proud of her son’s will and determination but also furious at Daemon’s ability to refrain from helping their son.

‘Daemon, you pay me for this!’

That was what was on her mind as she moved.

…

While Fabienne was thinking about him, Daemon was moving through the shadows of Leopoldine, preparing for his actions against the imperial family of this state.

Several of his men were also moving to bring chaos to this state, among them the person who had gone to Peters City to warn Lothur about what would happen.

Unfortunately, this person had arrived late in that place, and the men of the imperial family had already taken Lothur.

With that fact in hand, such a person immediately used the high-level communication formation he had to speak to his leader.

“Chief, I am in Peters City.”

The voice of that person who had met Lothur in the past to give him the teleportation formation that took him to the Three Great Lakes Region sounded in the crystal in Daemon’s hands.

Daemon looked at that item as he stood on a tree branch, resting next to three other men.

“Where is Lothur? Did you warn him of what is about to happen?”

“No, when I got here, Lothur had been taken into custody by imperial family guards. It seems that the Third Prince has armed himself against him…”

The three men beside Daemon looked at him in surprise, not expecting Lothur was going to be taken by the people of that family.

At the moment, there should be Saints in search of Lothur’s head, so for an instant, they had forgotten that this young man had problems with the local imperial family, given his connection to Daemon.

Daemon heard that and clenched his fists, seeing the Third Prince’s face in his mind, planning to teach this fool a lesson.

“But I have some good news…” The voice said.

“What is it?”

“The Church already has someone in Peters City investigating him. But they don’t yet know the identity of Lothur. Perhaps Miss Fabienne can free him and take him to Demon Island.”

“Hmm, that’s really not bad news…” Daemon commented before giving some orders.

“Alright, since my son has a small chance and being harmed because of me, let’s create a small distraction in the capital. Attack our enemies and show everyone what happens to those who defy me!”

…

When it was dawn in Peters City, the High Priest of the Seraphim Church finished his investigations in that city.

After verifying that all the young people he had met in Peters City were humans and did not know about the half-breed, he promptly left that place to search for the remaining survivors of the Secret Realm.

He now had three suspects, one who was heading for the Imperial Prison south of Leopoldine and two who were supposed to be heading for Holland Province.

Since Holland Province was closer to Linn Province, this man was moving to that place, interested in checking those two out.

If neither of them was the half-breed, everything would be easy for him, for only Lothur would be left to be associated with such an abomination.

But as he moved, he was already communicating with his people coming to hunt the hybrid of a human and a demon.

“To all coming to Leopoldine, I have good news.” He said into the communicator connected to the communicators of the Saints leading the hunt groups.

“Oh? What are they? Have you found him?” One of those men asked while the others stood silently waiting for the High Priest’s answer.

“No, but I only have three suspects. The good news is that this half-breed is young and weak. His strength must be between the end of the 2nd and the beginning of the 3rd stages, much weaker than we had thought.”

“That’s really great!”

“With such a small cultivation, it will be easy for us to conquer this Diamond-grade Soul Bone!”

“The Supreme Pontiff will be extremely happy with that! Perhaps he can advance to the 5th stage after absorbing such a Soul Bone!”

Those various Saints sent their thoughts through their communicators.

Throughout the history of the Seraphim Church, they had fought against hybrids of humans and demons a few times. However, these beings were usually a bit stronger than Transcendent Soul Core level individuals when they revealed themselves.

Half-breeds of humans and demons were extremely chaotic and violent. Still, their survival instincts were excellent, and it was unusual for them to show themselves through their bloodline power when they were weak.

Usually, the people of this Church only discovered them early on because of the killing these hybrids caused, not because of their spiritual fluctuations, as in Lothur’s case.

So this time, they had thought they were up against someone powerful.

They were all satisfied when they found out they were wrong, seeing that their task would be much simpler!

The High Priest then said. “Let’s discuss this later… For now, I’m going to the Halland Province. One of you who is closest goes to the Imperial Prison, where one of the suspects had been sent. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃ𝚘𝚖

Let’s settle this quickly!”
