Chapter 447 Lothur's Situation

"Okay!" One of the women in this group shouted as she noticed that Elke was not hurt.

With that, the other three became more confident in their actions, beginning to act with her as they attacked those beasts and animals more efficiently.

Swooish!

Elke once again moved her sword against one of those beings, striking in front of one of her allies, giving her space.

With that move by Elke, the level 10 young man used his spiritual art to trap that bird in a sculpture of earth.

Desert Coffin!

He clenched his fists and made those earth walls of the sculpture press against such a being.

With that, Elke moved quickly to help her next ally, displaying a speed similar to that of Lothur, surprising those beasts immensely.

She was so fast that she could help her four allies in time for them not to get hurt and still open up opportunities for them to mortally attack their enemies.

Due to the abilities of Elke and the relatively efficient combination of the group, they managed to kill more than two-thirds of these beings in the blink of an eye.

With this done, they wasted no time fighting the rest of the opponents and left this place, heading for the exit of this mountain.

They left through a different place than they had entered, so it took them a few moments to locate themselves. But as cultivators who had studied about the province and had valuable equipment with them, they soon found a way back to the previous village.

"You go to the village and send requests for help to the academy and the Church!" Elke shouted to her group mates as she found her way back to the cave entrance they had passed through earlier.

"Some people were chasing our group to help Lothur. So I will go back to talk to them and ask for their help."

"Okay!" They shouted in agreement, without questioning the group leader since they feared the demon from earlier.

Most likely, that creature would kill Lothur after a while. Then it would become stronger and could endanger all humans in the vicinity.

Therefore, it was imperative to get reinforcements and not waste time with unnecessary questioning.

So Elke separated from the four of them, heading for the place that had been destroyed earlier.

...

On the other hand, at the place where the demon had prepared explosive devices to close the entrance to that cave...

By now, the specialists there had managed to open a passage to the cave's interior!

After more than 15 minutes of working together, those Spiritual Warriors and the Transcendent had found a way to dig an entrance through those hard-to-crack stones.

Everyone was extremely nervous when this happened, feeling that it might already be too late for them to save young Ritter.

The young man's allies were trembling at the possibility that the Ritter Motor Company could not get off the ground and all their plans would go down the drain.

On the other hand, the Transcendent was afraid of what Lothur's grandfather and even this young man's father might do to him since he had an obligation to save such a person in this situation.

Considering that he was much weaker than both of these people, he was pale and sweating in fear as he ran in front of everyone into the interior of that cave.

However, as they moved, these people soon heard strange cries of pain coming from inside one of the cameras in that cave, sensing something strange.

The screams were not like those that humans would emit when in agony. On the contrary, such a thing sounded like a special kind of grunt, masked by negative energies and an incomprehensible hatred.

These cultivators made strange expressions and continued on their way, arriving at where those noises were coming from seconds later.

But when they reached that compartment, they all opened their mouths in shock to find only Lothur and the demon, with the latter suffering at the hands of young Ritter.

Lothur was slowly torturing the creature that had the size of a 10-year-old human child.

But despite its size, this creature looked extremely old, full of wrinkles, malnourished and fragile skin, totally different from what they had thought a few moments ago.

They had felt an intense negative feeling seconds ago. Still, when faced with this situation, the terror emitted by that demon was no longer the same. Now it seemed to feel more fear than to impose such a feeling!

Amidst their silence, Lothur realized that someone else was there with him and the demon.

"Uh?" He turned around on his back and saw a group of 5 people, 4 of them he already knew, but one stranger, someone dressed entirely in black.

Given this person's cultivation, he realized that this was probably one of the individuals who had acted against him over the past few weeks.

"You? Who are you?" He stopped torturing the demon and made a defensive stance while holding this being's neck with one of his hands.

The people there continued with their mouths open while that expert watched the situation cautiously.

'Something happened here!'

'That demon seemed much stronger a few minutes ago!' He felt that Lothur had probably done something that had finished that being off.

He was not a demon hunter, but this man knew that the techniques of these hunters did not leave demons like that. So he could not help but wonder what Lothur had done.

The demon had not died, which in itself was not good. But this being seemed so weakened that this man could not help but be impressed and curious.

'Does he have some kind of secret art that can do this?' He wondered when he finally decided to answer young Ritter.

"Easy, kid, I'm here to help you." He said, making a hand signal for Lothur not to think the worst of him. "I sensed that this Monarch demon was in this cave, and I ran here to try to help you deal with it..."

"I just didn't expect it wouldn't be necessary."

Gulp!

The people there swallowed their saliva, finding Lothur somewhat abnormal, seeing how he held that creature as if he were holding an ordinary animal.

"Lothur, what were you doing with it? Can't you kill it?" One of those men asked.

"Oh, about that, I was torturing it to make it tell me how to eliminate it. I want the Soul Bone from this creature, but it is too tough." Lothur said as he swung that body around and looked into the eyes of the creature.

'Did he want to break the demon's will and make it deliver such a secret?' The Becker family elder there thought about it, noting that Lothur was somewhat strange.

The Transcendent then said. "That is natural. A demon will never hand over such information to anyone, Lothur. But if you come with me, I will find someone to kill it and give you the Soul Bone."

"How about that? Come with me to meet your grandfather, and everything will be fine."
