Mixed Blessing System-Chapter 453 Directions

Lothur was a little impressed to notice the change in the behavior of those beasts, but he did not question them. If these beings stronger than him were going to let him go, that would be better.

The great eagle saw him waving in its direction and began to draw on the earth with one of its claws. "We are in the Three Great Lakes Region, specifically near the final ridges of this area."

"We are here." It marked an 'x' near the easternmost side of the map it was drawing. "As for your Finn Mountains, it should be at that point." It indicated a location quite a distance from the 'x.'

"How do I get away from here? I would like to return to Peters City." Lothur commented as he paid attention to what that bird was doing.

It answered him. "I don't know where that city is, although I have heard of it. But if you follow this path..." It drew the common paths it knew in this great forest. "You will be able to avoid most of the beast territories nearby. Then you at least won't get into trouble like the one before often."

In this way, it spent the next few minutes telling Lothur the basics about the area, about the beasts he might or might not encounter on his way, the territories to watch out for, etc. Of course, this eagle gave no in-depth details. Still, what was necessary for this human to travel minimally aware of the local dangers, it made sure to teach him.

But since even it did not know about everything regarding this area, this white-feathered beast's explanations did not last long.

"Anyway, with someone of your abilities, you should be able to get out of our Great Lakes area in about 20 days. After that, just look for some human city and ask members of your species for help."

"20 days?" Lothur's eyebrows drew together since that was far more than he had to return to Peters City and accomplish his previous mission.

He had complete confidence that Elke and his teammates would finish the previous mission with the disappearance of this demon who was now with him. So, this fellow wanted to return to Peters City as soon as possible and complete the requirement to join Viktoria's faction. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

"Isn't there any way I can do this faster? I have an appointment in less than ten days in Peters City, and I need to be there."

"Ten days? Impossible." The red bear said. "Even if you run day and night at your maximum speed, it would take three days just to leave our forest. But, of course, that's considering you would not have any problems on your way, something pretty hard to accomplish, to be honest."

"Yet, you don't even have the capabilities to move at that speed for that long in a row... So you'd better forget about it." The white eagle completed its furry neighbor's speech.

"That..." He clenched his fists, unconsciously strangling the demon in one of his hands.

"Ouch!"

'Damn it!'

'I didn't think I would be sent so far away!' Lothur complained in his mind, not knowing what to do in this situation.

"Isn't any human group in this area to help me?"

The eagle and the bear looked at each other, and then one said. "There are, but we don't know how to find them, nor would we dare approach their place. They are stronger than us."

After hearing that furry creature's comment, Lothur did not press them, only sighed in defeat. 'I guess I'll have to do what I can and try my luck...'

'Tsk!'

'That's if I don't get into trouble in this place.' He laughed at his luck, remembering that he was in an area filled with beings like those two.

The eagle watched Lothur in silence, sensing that such a human was like them, focused on body cultivation, not soul cultivation.

They could sense this from Lothur's extreme speed coupled with the fear of them that he felt and had displayed a few moments ago.

If Lothur was a soul cultivator with such speed, he should have killed them with a swing of his sleeve!

But Lothur had fled with all his might and even suffered considerable damage that had not fully healed, even considering his regenerative power.

Considering this, this experienced creature would not mistake Lothur for a soul cultivator.

With that, it suggested. "It will be impossible for you to achieve what you desire at the moment. But if you are lucky, you may get some help to ease your way."

"What does that mean?" He looked at that creature with interest.

"In one of the lakes following the path I taught you, there is a place suitable for body cultivators. If you can get there, you may experience some physical improvements after a few hours under the effects of that... The problem will be just getting there." It said.

"Will I, by any chance, have to go through a beast's territory?"

"Not just one." The big bear said, knowing what that eagle was planning. "If I were you, human, I wouldn't go. You will die if you have to face the beasts on the way there."

The eagle and that bear were talking about a special place for beasts nearby, where these beings could get stronger depending on their levels.

Such a place was no longer so beneficial for them as to make them want to risk themselves. But for someone as weak as Lothur, such a place contained relevant opportunities.

That's why that eagle mentioned it to him. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

But like all wealth, the place in question was protected by some individuals stronger than these two, who enjoyed the benefits of the area. Because of this, the risks of a journey toward such a place were not small!

"So that's it..." Lothur bowed his head, thinking about the matter.

It was not worth risking his life so that he could join his wife's faction. But perhaps it was worth doing so if such an action would provide him with an opportunity for advancement.

Since he was already in this place, he decided to at least look the place over before he decided to risk everything to achieve such a thing.

"Tell me about this place. I might be interested." The human said, surprising those beasts that already thought he would give up the idea.

The eagle then explained a few things to Lothur until he heard enough to leave from there.

"What about this demon? Do you know anything more about it?" The bear asked before Lothur began to get ready to leave.

"No. I found it in a cave in the Finn Mountains. Then, after I defeated it, I came here, as I told you."

The two beasts looked at each other, thinking it unlikely that such a demon was related to the problem the area leader had faced weeks ago.

The distance between the two areas was not small, so the possibility of this demon having a connection to such a thing was small.

'Maybe it's not it...' The eagle thought, regretting that it would get no prize for locating such an individual.

Meanwhile, the demon was looking away from that area, remembering the chase it had endured before reaching that cave.

'Why are these beasts asking about this? Do they suspect something?'
