3161 Monster Hunt (Part 1)

"That place is nowhere near Vidun's hiding spot. Lith must have traveled for thousands of kilometers aimlessly. Also, the report says he kept his Abomination form the whole time and doesn't even remember his own name.

"Lith butchered a group of criminals in front of three innocent people and according to the witnesses, he wanted to kill them as well." Kamila's voice dropped to a whisper at the last part and her face went pale.

The family gathered to read the report but, much to the children's dismay, they were sent to their rooms and forbidden to come out until called.

"By the Great Mother, this is bad." Valtak said. "I would love to help, but I'm still recovering. Without my bright violet core, facing an Abomination like Lith is too dangerous."

"Even if you had made a full recovery already, I wouldn't have let you go." Kamila shook her head. "First, we must capture Lith. Then, if nothing else works, we need you to treat his life force with your Immortal Flames again.

"You need to save your strength and focus on healing. You are our best shot at bringing Lith back. Can you send a few Fire Dragons?"

"To help someone they don't know or care about?" The Father of Fire replied. "That's a bad idea, Kamila. They would kick Lith's ass mercilessly and if one of my children gets hurt, the others would show him no mercy."

"What about your Phoenixes, Grandma?" Elina asked Salaark who was taking care of the newborns. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

"I won't order them to intervene but I won't stop them either." The Overlord replied. "The Blood Desert has no reason to get involved in the Kingdom's business but any of my children is free to help you in their free time."

"Thank you, Grandma." Kamila knew that with the Guardians' no-intervention policy, Salaark was doing the best she could. "I'll call Sinmara, then. Maybe she can call Surtr and they can help us."

Archduchy of Essagor, capital city of Verlam, Vastor Household at the same time.

"Thanks for coming here so quickly." Zogar Vastor had assembled his hybrids and the most powerful Eldritches of his Organization. "All of you should know that Lith Verhen is more than a student to me.

"He's a brother to Xenagrosh, a friend to Bytra, and also an Abomination hybrid, just like you. Even if he doesn't know it, he's part of our Organization. He's your sibling and my responsibility.

"Until he's found and brought back, all of our business will be on hold. I'll keep a skeleton crew of Abominations and Eldritches to supervise the active operations but everything else can wait.

"The hunt to the Undead Courts is now of low priority and so is restoring more mines on Jiera." He walked back and forth in front of the lined-up Eldrictches.

"In case some of you were distracted, let me be clear. I want Lith Verhen taken alive and well. Killing is out of the question. You are allowed to hurt him, but only in order to restrain him.

"If you don't feel up to the task, call for help. There's no shame in it. Also, if you end up killing him, consider yourself expelled from the Organization. With all that it implies."

Which was a polite way to say sentenced to death.

The Eldritches couldn't risk a former associate to divulge their secrets or position. On top of that, escaping Xenagrosh's fury without the protection of the Master would have been hard back when she was just a hybrid.
