Mixed Blessing System



The moment he activated his bloodline, Lothur felt the lives of over 20 creatures in the area under his control, taking their fates into his hands.

He had only 10 enemies there, but these other creatures in the area were witnesses he could not leave behind.

As someone merciless, Lothur spared no one and, in the blink of an eye, made his bloody energy reach everyone in that area, sucking their vitalities and all their cultivation comprehensions.

One of the humans closest to that cave where a red giant had emerged trembled at the sight of Lothur's silhouette, feeling the true terror of being against a Sage.

Not only was this a Sage, but also a hybrid who could steal everything they had.

'My Seraph, who have we provoked?' One of the old men thought to himself, shivering in pain but unable to move his body as a cloak of red energy circled him.

Meanwhile, even the people farthest away from Lothur felt a cloak of red mist over their bodies, sucking what they had like a parasite trying to kill them.

"Shit!" One of the women managed to scream, but her whole body was shriveling in the midst of it, losing the beauty she had to turn her into a mummy.

Not only were the humans suffering, but the four dragons were madly trying to escape from there.

But the aura restricting them was so terrible that even special creatures of powerful bloodlines and body features were achieving nothing.

They outlasted the humans, and after 20 seconds since the activation of Lothur's bloodline ability, they were the only ones in the area still alive.

All others, innocent or not, perished, leaving no bodies behind.

They turned to dust, leaving only their rings and Soul Bones!

Of the six humans, 5 had at least one Soul Bone, while one had two of these special artifacts.

After the deaths of these humans and the innocents in the area, the dragons could not hold on for long and also met their end.

In the midst of this, Lothur saw his characteristics improve significantly.

Seeing his improvements, Lothur smiled in satisfaction, ordering the system to distribute these points in Soul power.

[1,041 points added in SOU for the cost of 31,230 EVF.]

...

[SOU: 5,322 -> 6,363]

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]

[INT: 1,059] [PER: 4,215] [WIL: 2,213] [SOU: 6,363]

[EVF: 29]

Seeing his status with such high values, Lothur finally heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the danger to him had just greatly diminished.

With so many Platinum-grade features, the Darkness Scythe, his 7 Soul Bones, and such attributes, he could now hide even from Sages, use his bloodline ability freely, etc.

Thinking of this, he clenched his fists, feeling excited.

But still standing in that area, he decided to look up in the system the new skill he had acquired.

[Decomposition] [Rank: Platinum]

[Characteristics: skill related to the user's Soul. With it, the user can decompose all kinds of material by touching it with any part of his body or even with his spiritual fluctuation.]

[Progress: 8%]

'That's really a great skill, not only offensive but also defensive.' Lothur thought to himself, imagining the wonders he could do using it.

But besides Decomposition, his recently acquired skill, Storm, had evolved to Platinum grade, and now it could do much more than before.

If Lothur wanted to, he could now even send destructive storms for hundreds of kilometers. He could create a destructive phenomenon capable of hitting entire states if he wanted!

This was the true power of a Sage, which could not be measured in numbers!

Lothur quickly saw this through the system screen, but while he did so with satisfaction, he suddenly felt a strange sensation and looked south.

'Sages?' When he activated his sight skill, he immediately saw several 5th-stage cultivators approaching him.

'I must have attracted their attention during the battle earlier...' He quickly understood that this had nothing to do with when he used his bloodline ability.

Now, he could use it without worrying about alerting Sages to his position!

However, in the battle against the demons and then the escape from the humans, any Sage who looked at Lothur would have noticed that he was a hybrid!

'Before, I would have been afraid, but now I will just go on my way.'

Quickly realizing the problem, Lothur moved and opened a spatial rift to an area far away, near the center of Rablus.

As he disappeared from the area, the now completely gray surroundings of that place revealed themselves to the world. Still, there was nothing there to indicate where the cause of all this destruction had gone.

...

When he passed through the previous portal and arrived in Rablus, Lothur had his hair in its original color and felt safe enough to show his true appearance in public.

Without as many worries as he had recently, he looked at his spatial ring, which contained the six Soul Bones he had just acquired and six Gold-grade spatial rings.

'I now have 10 Soul Bones for my family.' Lothur looked at one of his hands and thought. 'But 3 of them are not suitable for my women. They are only Soul Bones of Lord demons.

Lothur currently had 1 bone from an Emperor demon, 4 from Monarch demons, 2 from General demons, and 3 from Lord demons.

He thought that the 7 bones could be absorbed by his women without hindering them too much in their journey, even if some of them were from General demons.

But the 3 most common bones would no longer serve them, who would soon have 3 to 5 Soul Bones each.

'I will give these to the Koch, Becker, and Frost families. They will each receive one of these bones.' Lothur decided before looking at the spatial rings and realizing how much wealth he had accumulated.

'Oh? Not bad...' He smiled and finished his brief analysis before returning to his previous interest.

'Time to go after the hybrid!'
