Chapter 732 Shocking Level



"So Verna must have died? Is that so? There's no way she could have lasted any longer?" Lothur insisted, noting that he could only get more clues to this family's whereabouts by insisting on her name.

"That would be impossible. As far as I know, Verna was only a high-level Transcendent when she was involved in an incident with the royalty of the Ancestral Region." The Elder said, certain of his theories. "So she was already relatively old when she got involved in that trouble. After that, even if she found valuable resources, her fate wouldn't be good.

At most, she could recover a little and live for a while longer. But it would be impossible for her to become a Sage.

In that case, she must have died some time ago."

"Do you know why he entered the Ancestral Region after being banished from it centuries ago? I mean, for someone who has been away for so long, something must have happened for her to agree to risk entering the area again." Lothur said.

The elder thought for a moment. It was not easy to remember things from over 3,000 years ago, from when he was just a young boy.

"Hmmm, maybe something happened to her and her family." He murmured. "I can't tell you for sure what her motive was. Her family didn't talk about her in the village, although they still loved her.

When her father died, everyone knew it was because of the news about her. After all, he was fine, but when he heard that the royal forces were pursuing his daughter, he quickly fell ill.

But even then, his family never mentioned her name or made any announcements about her. So there are many possibilities behind this."

He hesitated for a moment but finally said, "But as someone who committed the same sin as her, I would only return to the Ancestral Region in two cases."

"What would those be?"

"One, if I had news that my family members were in danger." He pointed with his finger. "Two, if my children or new family needed something that I know is in this region and it can be used to save the life of one or more of them.

So if you want to know what I think of her action, I would say something has happened to her family of hybrids." The elder finished his thought. "The family she descended from was doing well before her action... If I were you, I would search for her in other regional hybrid villages.

In particular, look for an incident about three thousand years ago involving hybrids and an Ancestral Folk woman. Maybe that will help you find her."

Lothur agreed with the elder, judging that this was indeed the most likely reason behind Verna's move.

'I will do that. I'll look for such incidents in the next village I pass.' He was thinking about it when he noticed something. "Isn't there any such information in this village?"

"No, this village was founded 2.5 thousand years ago by an Ancestral Folk woman. I came here 150 years after her, so I'm sure we don't have the information." The elder replied, making Lothur sigh.

If he knew exactly where Verna and her children had lived, he could use his ability, One With Nature, to try to understand what happened to them.

With this ability, he could feel everything that the vegetation in a given space had felt and even see things that had happened centuries ago.

But there was no point in using it without knowing what the spiritual fluctuations of the people he was looking for were like, let alone where they had been.

It would be much more tedious and time-consuming than following what he had already done.

With the information from this elder, he could only rely on the knowledge of people like this person to get closer to Mathias' descendants, or at least the truth about them.

After hearing all of this from this elder, Lothur left the residence of the village's Ancestral Folk elders to join the people who had welcomed him earlier.

Soon, a great feast would be held in his name, marking the end of the threat of the area's spectres and the beginning of a new era for this village.

When they heard what he had done, the other village elders thanked Lothur once again and ate and drank with him.

One of them even approached him and gave him a pendant from another nearby village, a place that this person said was even older than this village and where he would have a better chance of getting his questions answered.

With this in hand, Lothur would leave this village at the end of the day and head north, where the oldest and most powerful villages of hybrids in the Petha Empire were located!

...

As Lothur traveled through the Petha Empire, news of a recent massacre between the borders of Norid and Rablus began to circulate.

An entire village was reportedly found abandoned, with signs of battle and many dead from some sort of creature.

A few days ago, when demon hunters investigated such a place, they found signs of the most terrifying creature in the world!

A hybrid was behind such a massacre!n0velUsb.c0M

With such news, the already worried people of Rablus, where the Church was supposedly hunting a hybrid, were now aware that there really was a hideous creature traveling through their state.

Amidst this, the Seraphim Church was agitated by the news coming into their headquarters, not quite understanding what was happening.

They were following the tracks of the cursed hybrid that had appeared in Leopoldine, but out of nowhere, a village that such tracks did not even come close to had been massacred by such a creature.

Were they really hunting one hybrid? Or were there two hybrids on the continent?

With this shocking possibility, the Church's ghost group was about to go into action for the first time in a long period!

...

At the headquarters of the Seraphim Church in Norid...

"Elder, welcome back."

A group of level 21 men was kneeling in front of a large open coffin in which a skinny person was standing in front of this urn, dressing.

His skin was extremely pale, and his lips were bluish, like a corpse's. But his heart was beating in his chest, faintly, but still, beating as it would for living beings.

"Two hybrids, huh? You woke me up just in time. With these two Diamond-grade bones roaming the continent, I'll be able to reach the 3rd Catastrophe alongside one of those old men!" He said in a low voice, looking at the tombs in front of him in a large crypt.

If Lothur were there, he would be shocked to see someone with over 9,000 Soul attribute points!
