Mixed Blessing System

After the previous conversation, Lothur departed that area under the gaze of the two beasts.

The big red bear stayed for some time in its neighbor's territory. Then, when Lothur had finally disappeared from its sight, it said goodbye.

But as it was leaving, the old eagle suddenly asked it. "Don't you find all this strange, Moomo?"

"What are you talking about?" This furry fellow turned around and questioned in doubt.

The bird said. "This human does not emit any spiritual fluctuations and does not seem to be affected by our auras."

Spiritual beasts released their auras during their sleep. So it was extremely uncomfortable and challenging for lower-level beings to be around them in a situation similar to Moomo's earlier.

They also did this during combat, so the eagle in question noticed that Lothur seemed unaffected by any of this.

"Even without being restricted by your aura and not giving off any threatening sensations, he managed to put you on alert, provoking you to chase him..." It said, as its eyes narrowed, seeing Lothur from afar due to its superior sight to that other beast.

"No." It did not let it finish and said. "He's too capable to make a mistake like that."

"Then what do you think?" The bear, who was not smart, questioned.

"I don't know. But it's bizarre..." This eagle looked at its surroundings, sensing that the situation was not simple.

...

Sometime later...

When it was night in the Three Great Lakes Region, Lothur and the demon had already traveled several kilometers from their previous position. Now they were heading towards the first lake in this area, near where they were.

He had decided to at least 'look' more closely at the kind of challenge he would have to achieve the breakthrough possibility that the eagle had told him.

In this way, he had already avoided several beast territories on his way there and was now at his rest stop.

According to those beasts, on the path he would follow, there were some places he should not be careless since the beasts were more active and more territory occupied. But in others, like the one he was in at the moment, there were more tranquility places, and he could stop to rest and even train.

Obviously, these places were not simply forgotten spots in the forest but the vicinity of the areas of more powerful beings, which naturally kept a lot of trouble away.

But there was danger everywhere in this region, so Lothur would rather take his chances 'under the wings' of one of these beings than in other places. So many there could kill him anyway...

When he finished training and saw the notifications from the system, he immediately started eating so as not to stay in the area for too long.

After seeing his status, Lothur looked at the demon and smiled, remembering that he had raised his resistance to the element of darkness to the limit of Iron-grade because of this being.

[Iron-grade resistance to the element of darkness.]

[Progress: 99%]

He was only one step away from improving his resistance qualitatively, which would give him a promotion bonus in his Perception.

So this man also had in mind to look for things that could help him raise that resistance in this area, as such a creature had already assured him that it would not help him.

The demon realized that attacking Lothur with the dark element earlier had only helped this human become stronger.

It was very perceptive and quite intelligent. So to it, it had not taken much to notice enough to convince itself to no longer attack this human in that way.

And even if it wanted to, in its state, it would take a long time before it would produce something strong enough to help Lothur raise such resistance. So even this man was not pushing it about it.

'The place I am in is hazardous, but it has all kinds of special resources...' He thought about it positively. 'I will try to get in touch with as many plants and fruits in this place as possible while I am here.'

'Maybe I'll find things useful for my purposes!'

While he was thinking about his plans for this place, someone was watching him from the shadows without emitting any distinguishable aura.

'Fate is tough to read...' The owner of a pair of red eyes thought silently from her position.

...

Meanwhile, in Peters City...

By now, the news sent by Elke's group had already reached this city, alerting the academy and the local post of the Seraphim Church.

Because of this, the whole city was on alert since it was unusual for this Church outpost to send men outside its domains.

Many of Concordia's demon hunters were totally committed to the Church's functions. Thus, most of them lived in seclusion within these posts and rarely went out to fulfill Church functions.

Hence, on this day, when a dozen such individuals left the local post in Peters City, the whole city was on alert that there might be demons around.

The Church posts that sent members to hunt demons were usually those closest to these threats.

So, soon, the whole city was discussing the matter, while people were becoming more reclusive, going out less on the streets.

But not only the local population was paying attention. But the academy's top experts were also moving since one of their missions had identified a demon in the Finn Mountains.

That was an institution that prized the welfare and safety of its students. So naturally, it could not stand idly by with the threat to its students in that mountainous region.

That was particularly true for the principal of the academy, who had already left for that location to help resolve the matter.

...

"What? Lothur and his group ran into a demon?" The people on the Ice Feathers council found out about such a thing from one of the academy staff.

When she heard that, Karen opened her mouth in shock, she readily thought about her friend who was in love with Lothur and the group she and her family connected to.

'Damn it!'

'Damned luck!' She ran from where the academy employee had given them such news, going to mail some letters.

'I hope nothing happens, or we'll have several problems in the coming months!'

...

Meanwhile, at Angelic Feathers headquarters...

Larissa had just heard about the rumor already going around Peters City and could not help but turn pale at such a thing.

She had just made a deal with Lothur, so she would have many of her plans messed up if something happened to this guy.

With this in mind, she went out to find Viktoria and try to understand what was going on and the risks to Lothur!
