Mixed Blessing System

When Viktoria and Annaliese left ahead of the group, Elke wanted to do the same and help as much as possible.

However, as she was about to move, Gomeric and Hilda stopped her.

“Mother, father, what is the meaning of this?” Elke asked without understanding as she saw most people in the surrounding area scattering to the outskirts of the Frost family headquarters.

Gomeric then said. “Not so fast, Elke. Those two are heading toward greater danger on that estate. People at our level can’t go there!”

“But…”

“Elke, the Duke of the Province, Miss Larissa, and the academy director are already going with them. That’s already more than enough to stop that threat. We wouldn’t make any positive difference.” Hilda said to her daughter.

As residents of Peters City, they had an obligation to stop what was happening so that it would not spread to their homes. But they didn’t have to get involved with the biggest dangers of that day!

So Elke stayed behind while Viktoria and Annaliese joined the battle.

Halfway to their parents’ residence, they faced several spectres that had already invaded the bodies of dozens of guards at the estate.

Simon’s spectre was commanding these beings, so it was obvious they would not allow help to reach Mabel anytime soon.

This could signal the end for him, hindering his revenge. So he had already ordered all his inferiors to defend his position against powerful people!

Viktoria and the people in her group fought their way through, crushing the enemies trying to stop them.

Annaliese and Viktoria knew that once possessed for a few moments, cultivators would have meager chances of survival.

Therefore, killing their opponents was the best way for them to make it difficult for these negative spirits.

“Viktoria, go ahead. I will hold off these enemies.” Annaliese said as she felt that her mother and father were showing increasingly worrying signs.

Hearing this from her younger sister, Viktoria clenched her fists, feeling frustrated by these beings in the vicinity. But Annaliese should be able to hold them off for a few moments while she and the rest of the group of Transcendents arrived at the place where the worst was happening.

“All right, but don’t try so hard!” She said before flying off in the direction of her parents’ residence.

Larissa, Luis, and Chris passed Annaliese quickly, following Viktoria to where Mabel and Aiken were.

These three were not so concerned about Annaliese, who was already very close to reaching level 16. Instead, they were worried about the situation of Mabel and Aiken, who were showing worrying spiritual signs.

Mabel was getting weaker and weaker, while her aura showed that something was wrong, preventing her from doing all she could against Aiken.

This man was possessed, and these people could feel it even from a distance.

Thinking of the misfortune that could happen that day, they hurried on, sensing that significant losses would victimize the Frost family today.

‘Sigh… Those poor girls.’ Luis thought to himself as he looked at Annaliese and then at Viktoria.

But soon, their group reached the interior of Mabel and Aiken’s residence. This place was already largely destroyed by the battle of the two.

Upon seeing the plight of that couple, these individuals reacted as Viktoria did, standing momentarily still as they saw how Aiken and Mabel looked.

Aiken had the sclera of his eyes completely black while a black fog left his body. At the same time, several injuries fatal to level 15 cultivators were all over his body as he continued to move against his opponent.

Simultaneously to this, Mabel was also seriously injured. Her armor was soiled with her own blood. Meanwhile, her aura was greatly weakened so that these people knew that once she stopped fighting, she would fall into a deep sleep state.

That is, if she survived this confrontation!

Viktoria was devastated to see her father and mother in this situation, understanding that this was not their fault but the spectre that had possessed her father.

And precisely because of this, she was doubly worse off, for the chances of her father surviving this day were practically zero. 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎ𝚎𝚝

Tears streamed down her eyes as she watched yet another clash of those two, flying at high speed as they tried to press each other.

Larissa then said. “Let’s immobilize the Frost patriarch! That’s our only alternative to trap the spectre inside him!”

Luis and Chris readily agreed and moved to the surroundings of those two, already using their skills to their fullest from the start.

Sensing more enemies against him, the spectre within Aiken’s body intensified its attacks one last time in an attempt to ensure that Mabel would perish at the end of this fight.

If he was going to fall to these people, he at least wanted to ensure that those responsible for his death would perish in this place!

“Viktoria, help us stop him!” Larissa shouted to her former rival, snapping her out of her momentary state of shock.

Viktoria swallowed her sadness dry and moved to join those three and her mother.

Sadly, sometimes one has to make difficult choices in life. It was not always possible to save everyone, and on this day, Viktoria had to choose to save her mother!

She and the other three Soul Core Transcendents were soon around Aiken, using their abilities to immobilize him, trying to trap the invading spirit in his body.

Amidst this, the last remnant of Aiken’s soul was consumed by that creature, raising his soul power a little more.

At that moment, Aiken had finally died!

Meanwhile, those in the surrounding area felt such a thing but had no time to mourn.

If they didn’t take care of the situation quickly, the enemy had chances to advance and reach level 17!

Mabel then shouted. “Let’s trap him in Aiken’s body. Then we can arrest him with a sealing formation.”

If he left Aiken’s body, it would be harder to confront him, even if he didn’t advance. At the same time, outside a body, he could at any time possess someone else.

Since Aiken was already dead, it was better to continue keeping Simon’s spectre inside him. If they were successful in this, they could use arrays to seal his soul cultivation.

It would be tricky for them to kill this creature that was showing signs that it would advance to level 17, so in the heat of the moment, when they didn’t know how to resolve the situation, her suggestion had been the best.
