Mixed Blessing System



Before the Demon Emperor, the Demon Island was a forested area where various tribes, such as animal tribes, lived in separate groups using the most inferior and rudimentary technologies.

They lived by hunting the animals and beasts of the island, as well as the sea creatures that occasionally appeared alive on their shores.

Eventually, humans exploring the seas would catch up with them. They would become food for the demons when they arrived on the island.

But most of the demons rarely left Demon Island, and they didn't understand much about where these humans, who were so good for them to devour, came from. Only a tiny fraction of those who left the island made it to the mainland alive to wreak havoc in those lands and become much stronger.

In short, the demons lived isolated in that place, in the dark about various possibilities.

Then, one day, an Emperor demon came into contact with the Lost Tree and used its power fruit to reach a new level and become the strongest of the race.

He did this in Concordia after being exiled from his tribe. 

The one who would one day be known as the Demon Emperor created his own group on the continent. Then, when he reached a high level for his time, he returned to the island, where he eventually started a revolution that united all the demons around him.

After that, everything would change for the demon race. From that point on, the demons would see the continent as a big "box" of food, where they would go on expeditions to make meals and become stronger.

Those who were compatible with some human technologies learned several things and, in a few centuries, revolutionized Demon Island.

But the more they grew, the more they wanted!

This eventually sparked a sense of unity among the various races of Concordia, leading to the formation of the alliance that would eventually succeed in defeating the Demon Emperor and separating the Seven Singularities.

After understanding a little from the comments of Fabienne and some of her subordinates, the women of Lothur realized why this individual was so dangerous.

Demons united were strong, while separated were weak!

"So that's it..." Viktoria muttered, seeing that many of Concordia's problems wouldn't exist without that individual.

"But if he reappears in our world, expect nothing less than chaos and destruction." Fabienne became more serious. "The Demon Emperor reached a very high level before his powers were separated. He's definitely not dead, and if he's reunited, he'll be much harder to stop.

What happened thousands of years ago has not been forgotten. The tribe's actions will become more aggressive and difficult to counter once he returns.

At that time, the tribe will once again seek supremacy."

"Supremacy? They want to take over the continent?" Annaliese asked worriedly.

So far, she and her group only knew superficial things about demons and the Demon Emperor. They didn't know what this tribe's plans were and what they would do once they achieved their goals.

Fabienne shook her head negatively and smiled bitterly at them. "The Demon Emperor's plan was much more ambitious.

According to him, there was one level beyond the 5th Catastrophe of a Sage. If the most talented of our tribe devoured all the humans in Concordia, some of us could break through that limit even without the Seven Singularities or other magnificent items."

"What?" Viktoria opened her mouth to shout. "But that doesn't make sense. What would they use to strengthen themselves if they wiped us all out? Like it or not, we are beings that should be valued among the demons. If we disappear, they will no longer be able to devour us to quickly strengthen themselves."

This was a question that the Demon Emperor's own generals had asked back then, trying to understand the logic of their leader's ambitious plan.

Fabienne and her companions understood Viktoria's question, but the Demon Emperor's plans didn't stop at Concordia.

The white-haired woman closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "What if there is life beyond the sea?"

"Oh?" Lothur and everyone in his group understood what that meant and opened their eyes and mouths with even more interest.

She continued. "I can't say for sure how true what I'm about to say is because it's not in any of the tribe's records. However, some disciples of the Demon Emperor's generals have spread a certain rumor that the supreme leader of the race, after reaching the peak of cultivation, said that he felt something.

According to them, after raising the race as high as Concordia could take us, the Demon Emperor's plans were focused on the oceans. He wanted to explore the mysterious seas of our world and perhaps reach places where other forms of life existed."

"Is that possible?" Lothur asked in a grave tone.

In tens of thousands of years of recorded history, there had been no reports of humans attempting to explore the dangerous seas of this world and returning alive after traveling a certain distance.

For the people of Concordia, those who did not return met their own end.

But never in all of history had anyone publicly hypothesized that any of these beings had actually reached new lands.

So even Lothur couldn't help but wonder if there really was anything beyond Concordia and the nearby islands of this continent.

For the people of this continent, the world was finite, and beyond the continent lay only stormy waters, where one would encounter extreme spiritual phenomena that could threaten the lives of even the strongest experts.

No one had ever written in a book or recorded a hypothesis that there was something beyond.

"I don't know," Fabienne said. "But the tribe has plans for the sea. Right now, the navy is one of my people's most developed areas. 

Although we've learned a lot from the humans, our ships are currently among the most advanced in the world. Also, many of the tribe's most renowned experts are working together to develop useful artifacts for naval exploration.

So, I believe that at least the goal of exploring the seas after conquering the continent is real. Beyond that, I can't say. Perhaps the disciples of the Demon Emperor's generals used an excuse to justify their own interests."

With that, Lothur's group fell silent for a moment, each looking at the other, each pondering the implications of all this.

But as complicated as it was, they had learned from Fabienne some important points to pay more attention to.

The Demon Tribe wanted to bring back their supreme leader and then try to exterminate the human race to raise the level of various demons. What was beyond that didn't matter. What mattered was the threat that this tribe posed to the world and to humans in particular!
