Mixed Blessing System



Gulp!

"What?"

"He's a half-breed? How can he be?"

The people there were shocked by this revelation, not expecting to come across a creature as heinous as this in such a place.

Some doubted Arno's words, but as someone who had supposedly fought demons for over a thousand years before falling into this place, he was sure that his earlier feeling was not incorrect.

Lothur was a terrible being, and all lives in this place were at risk!

But Arno was still uncertain whether or not the ability of a half-breed would work in this place.

'Why would he do that here? His ability shouldn't be of much use in a place like this... It would only draw unnecessary attention.' He pondered as people in the surrounding area began to plan to unite against Lothur.

"If Senior Arno says so, we must pursue him as soon as possible!"

"Yes, the damned thing is a danger to the order of things inside the Imperial Prison!"

"He needs to die. That's a fact. But who's going to take the risk? Half-breeds are extremely difficult to fight against.

They have the cultivation speed of humans but the vitality of demons. They can awaken their own bloodline with ease and learn techniques with immense ease.

This young man has already killed several of our companions. How are we going to fight him?" Someone more concerned asked.

Arno said nothing, thinking it made sense to think that way.

He himself was uncertain if their group could kill this creature that was even harder to kill than demons.

'I'll let those fools attack first and deal with him when he is at his weakest state.' Arno thought to himself, as those who had lost their companions there made up their minds to join the attacks, even though it was dangerous.

"I will join the hunt! That bastard killed my brothers, so, of course, I will finish him off!"

"I've heard that half-breeds of humans and demons can generate a Diamond-grade Soul Bone. That will be the opportunity for one of us to get such a thing!" Another person said, knowing that many there were aware of this and would all vie for such a resource once Lothur was killed.

But for the moment, since he was alive, no one there saw themselves as competitors. On the contrary, for them, killing Lothur was a priority, and they would act as allies as long as this young man was breathing.

If they could kill him, that would be a problem for the future, not the present moment.

"Yes, we must unite to kill him and get that Soul Bone."

"Senior Arno, please guide us in this hunt!"

Arno heard that and smiled. "Very well. For those who don't know, killing half-breeds differs greatly from killing demons.

Unlike demons, half-breeds do not rely entirely on darkness to survive, so trying to destroy that elemental base will not kill him.

The only way to destroy a half-breed is to destroy their soul after destroying their Physique!"

All beings had their souls in some part of their bodies. But that part of living beings could be contained even in the smallest unit of the organism, within the micro-organelles of their cells.

In the case of a human, this would not help much because, without a heart and other parts of the human body, such a person would die because their regeneration was too slow and their lives depended on their bodies.

But in a hybrid or a demon, this was just perfect. Even if their bodies were destroyed to the point that only cells remained, they could still regenerate and survive.

Against a demon, the only way to solve this would be to destroy that being's elemental base, something quite difficult to do.

Against hybrids of demons and humans, even destroying the elemental base would not result in their death. The only way to do this would be to destroy the Physique, not the body, but the ability related to the body.

The Physique not only gave an innate ability to its owner. It also ultimately protected the soul of its owner.

So to destroy the soul of a creature with such ease of regeneration, one would have to destroy this defensive barrier before reaching the soul and eradicating it.

Until then, it would be impossible to guarantee the creature's death!

As for how to destroy a Physique, that was not a simple task, but it could be done by pushing the owner of that Physique to the limit of its use.

In other words, they had to drive Lothur to despair and make him use everything he had while they crushed him!

If they did this, they would eventually achieve the destruction of his Physique and have the chance to exterminate his soul.

The people in the surrounding area knew what destroying Physique meant, and after Arno's words, they began to prepare.

"I'll call my men, and my group will begin the search for this half-bread in no more than an hour." One of them said before several others said similar words.

Thus, a chase had been arranged in that place, something that would lead to immense trouble for Lothur in no time!

As these people began to move, he reached the headquarters of the Flame Faction.

...

"Friends of the Flame Faction, your leaders are dead. You are now under new command!" He arrived at this place speaking loudly, interested in taking this organization's resources.

At the same time, he wanted a place to train while recovering his bloodline skill.

After collecting several soul-skill-focused techniques, he wanted to learn at least one or two of them that were compatible with him.

His techniques focused on his body were not impressive and had low ratings. But some of the techniques he had just collected even had Gold-grade ratings, and he couldn't help but look forward to learning them.

His soul was still weak, but it would be much stronger when he left this place. As such, having good soul techniques would help raise his power even higher in the future.

With that, it wouldn't take long for him to dominate that place, where he would use the ability of one of his Soul Bones to enslave the strongest in the surrounding area.

Lothur's reign of terror was just beginning!
