Lothur wanted to take back what his enemies had taken from him earlier, a Diamond-grade Soul Bone. However, to do so, he would have to have the strength to defeat Sages even stronger than those he had faced.
Thinking more about it now that he was out of danger, Lothur was able to estimate the strength of the people who were supposed to have the best bones in the world. As such, he wouldn't overestimate his situation, and that was why he was in this remote place.
If he hid there, he could improve his strength a little more. In any case, he only had seven bones. He could still absorb two bones and save the last space for a Diamond-grade bone.
However, he would first have to investigate the type of Diamond-grade Soul Bones that existed. Unlike when the hybrid died and formed a missing bone in the one that killed it, these bones already had defined shapes.
Not just any bone could be absorbed by Lothur!
