Chapter 261: Chpater 261

Ibro wasn't stupid, as he got the hidden meaning behind the system statement. He asked at once:

'Does that mean if I helped you, you can destroy these seeds?'

'If you helped me, I can kill them. In return, you will get hit by the retaliation of these fiend demons. These demons are really hard to deal with even at death.'

Ibro recalled his past experience with Jognak the brutal demon. When he killed that demon, he got himself a curse.

'Do you mean their curses? I got one already but it didn't affect me much.'

The system took some time before saying:

'I inspected you and found a single weakened form of curses. The demon that gave this curse to you was in a weakened condition for too long.

That also occurred to you long ago. You had only one form of energy back then. Now, you have two types of energy. Any curse you will expose will make you lose a lot. Think again and choose wisely.'

Ibro felt the system itself was hesitating about this decision. That made him think again. His previous system could weaken the power of any seal by its seal function. He probed the current system ability to do so by asking:

'Can you seal these curses?'

'Unfortunately not. I didn't totally absorb your previous system, so I don't have what it takes to weaken the seal's effects.'

Ibro knew if he got cursed, then he would be exposed to the full power of the curse. He was worried about the possibility of his NPCs turning into demons at any time. He asked trying to know more about this point:

'Can any NPC having these seeds turn into demons anytime?'

'Yes, but that would require Domil himself to do that.'

'Who exactly is Domil? Is he like Jognak the brutal?'

'No, he is way higher in rank and power than Jognak. Each invading army of these fiends would have generals like Jognak the brutal and supreme commander which is Domil. Domil's numbers are few actually, but they can divide their souls to exist into many universes as a whole.'

Ibro understood how strong this Domil demon was. But he felt from the system words that Domil wasn't the strongest demon, so he asked:

'Is there any stronger demons other than Domil?'

'Domil is just the tip of the iceberg. Domil is just a pet out there in the fiend true world.'

Ibro exclaimed in surprise:

'Domil has a master?'

'Yes, and his master has a master. You know nothing at all about your true enemy.'

Ibro couldn't refute that. He was about to ask more about these fiends but the system added:

'Don't ask for more info about their world. You are still too weak to know such truth.'

Ibro sighed. He then let this topic down and then thought again about his current situation. He had the option of not interfering and living always under the threat of this Domil at any time.

He also had the other option of killing all those seeds and eliminating their threat. In return, he would get cursed. It wasn't just a single curse, but a lot of curses. He was out of any clues here. he asked hopelessly:

'Isn't there any method I can use to erase these curses' effect on me or even reduce it?'

'I have a way, although no one had ever tried it before, I'm sure of its success.'

Ibro was speechless.

'If you have a way, then why didn't you tell me about it?'

'As I just told you, it's not a well-known way, it's just a theory that no one had ever tried before.'

Ibro didn't take his decision at once, but he asked trying to know more:

'Why didn't anyone try this theory before?'

'Well, you can say that the fiendish world was a mystery to us humans till we got into the great war of extinction. This theory was done by one of the great humans before his fall. No one had ever tried this theory as there was no time back then to test it.'

Ibro wasn't satisfied by this reason, so he pressured the system more:

'You could have suggested it from the start. What is your hesitation, real reason?'

The system didn't answer him immediately. Ibro was really impatient as he asked again:

'Why don't you tell me everything? I can't decide about using this way or not except you tell me everything you know.'

The system didn't delay this time. It said with a decisive tone:

'I will tell everything. This theory is about learning the type of energy these demons use. You need to interact with a demon using this type of energy and try to absorb it inside you. There are two stages for this theory to succeed.

The first one is to absorb the energy at the time when a demon uses this energy. I can help you in absorbing this energy. You can meet this condition by killing a demon seed. Before this demon death, it will curse you.

This curse is one form of their usage of their energy. After you absorb this energy, you need to start using it immediately. I don't know any curses, but I can provide you with another form that you can use easily. This form is called 'Spells'.'

Ibro's mind was processing all this info. He was trying to locate the source of danger. The system wouldn't hesitate for a simple reason. All the info related to this condition wasn't that difficult. So

'Tell me the second condition then? I bet you are hesitating because of it.'

'You bet it right. The second condition was about making this energy permanent. The one who put this theory had only thought of the first condition and he succeeded in it. what he described this energy back then was two words only Toxic and Rebellious.

This energy had caused him to die. At his dying moments, he set up the second condition. This condition is to stabilize this energy, you need to add a more powerful form of it once in a while.

That means you need to kill more powerful demons that you normally face. In other words, you need to kill fiends, not just demons. The only fiend here is that Domil.'
