Mixed Blessing System



Lothur said to his two strongest women. "There are elders in this tribe who might be able to identify me. So you two should go to Cykad and talk to him about me. He will understand what needs to be done and will come with us.

The two didn't question their man, and after nodding in agreement with what he had said, they moved toward the interior of the area where dinosaurs of various types and sizes lived.

The area where Lothur and the other two women were standing was the edge of this tribe, where no one was watching at the moment. So, the three of them stayed where they were, not taking any time to get used to the area.

Viktoria and Rebecca were naturally nervous to be in this legendary place. Still, Lothur calmly built a small fire as if he were in the backyard of his house.

Meanwhile, Elke and Annaliese entered the area under the observation of some 4th-stage dinosaurs and immediately alerted some beings to the arrival of specialists.

Even though they were weaker, some of the first ones to notice them didn't hesitate and moved to prevent them from approaching the core of their tribe without first justifying themselves.

"Humans, stop! What are you doing in our territory?" A level 21 dinosaur, the first to see them, appeared in their path and spoke Concordia's common language.

That dinosaur wouldn't have used the common language if they were low-level beings. He would have used his own language because it was the duty of those who entered foreign lands to know the local language.

If one didn't, that was their problem!

But before Sages, even this proud beast of his race had to show some modesty.

Annaliese and Elke didn't want any trouble, so when they heard that first dinosaur that had appeared in their path, they both stopped.

Elke said. "We're looking for Cykad, a Tyrannosaurus Rex. We have business with him."

"Cykad?" This dinosaur and other observers in the area heard this and were surprised because this Tyrannosaurus Rex was a guy who rarely received visitors.

Even when he did receive visitors, these beings were never of the same level or higher than him. They were always weaker beings who were part of his network of influence outside the Ancestral Region.

For people stronger than Cykad himself to come to this place, something had to be going on.

"Is this about the hunt for the human-demon hybrid?" One of the elders asked, knowing that such a guy was shamefully not participating in the hunt with the rest of the experts of his level.

Annaliese replied. "More or less. We have some concerns in common with him. Please, could you take us to him? We mean no harm to your tribe. We simply wish to speak with the elder Cykad."

Cykad was not well-liked within the tribe for his recent decisions, so if someone could help him change his mind, some would be sincerely grateful.

The tribe's goal was to reach the pinnacle, not to be destroyed by a threat like the hybrid. So everyone who could be used to hunt the Hybrid should be on the move. If someone could convince Cykad to do this, it would be good for the entire tribe, as another Sage would be on the lookout to prevent someone who could harm this tribe in the future from developing further.

With this in mind, the 4th-stage observers felt it would be no problem to let these human women come into contact with Cykad.

"Wait here. Some of us will notify Cykad, and he'll come to you if he's interested." One of them said.

They would not let two level 23 Sages they didn't know into their territory just because they said they weren't there to cause trouble.

As powerless as they were to stop them, some of their elders who were standing by to protect the tribe were already aware of the arrival of these two humans and were keeping a close eye on them.

If they dared to invade the tribe or do anything dangerous, even if they were 2nd Catastrophic Sages, they would be in trouble!

...

Meanwhile, inside the tribe...

Cykad was monitoring some of his groups around Concordia, who constantly sent him information about the demon groups around the continent.

He had the location of 45 high-ranking demons, Generals, Monarchs, and a few Emperors. In addition, he was personally monitoring the movements of the Sages, who had left the demon headquarters after the deaths of the four individuals who had confronted Lothur earlier.

But amid his observations, one of his subordinates suddenly rushed into his cave.

"Boss! 5th stage humans have just arrived at the tribe and are looking for you!" A 4th-stage Tyrannosaurus Rex entered the place where Cykad was standing, having rushed there after being told by one of the elders that he had encountered Elke and Annaliese a few moments ago.

Upon hearing this, Cykad took his eyes off whatever he had been doing lately and looked at his man strangely.

'Human Sages?' He asked himself, a look of doubt forming on his dinosaur face.

"What are you talking about? Why would humans of that level come to me?"

"Boss, two human women arrived in our territory a few moments ago, claiming to have something to discuss with you. One of them said that she had concerns in common with you." That creature with the dark scales said.

'Common concerns?' Cykad wondered.

The Sages' concern at the moment was the existence of the hybrid, Lothur. But he wasn't worried about that. What worried him was the rise of the Demon Emperor.

Thinking about that, he narrowed his eyes, wondering if these human women had confused his concerns or if they were worried about the demons moving freely across the continent.

"Did they say their names? Where are they?" He asked with interest as he put aside what he was doing, curious to come face to face with these human women.

"No. But they are standing on the south side of the tribe. The elders who were watching that area stopped them there."

"Okay, I'll go to them." He said as he took the lead from his man and moved quickly.

As his leader moved, this 4th stage Tyrannosaurus Rex shouted. "But be careful, boss. They're 2nd Catastrophe Sages!"

Cykad heard this, but more curious than worried, he made his way south of his tribe's territory, eager to meet these humans who were after him.

Given his speed, Cykad would reach the place where Annaliese and Elke were waiting for him in less than 10 minutes, seeing two women of Lothur but not recognizing them, as the difference in level in their favor allowed them to hide certain features on their bodies.

"Elder Cykad, it's good to finally meet you..."
