Mixed Blessing System

While some families were reacting to the news about Lothur and the preliminary result of House Frost, others were already moving to deal with these unexpected results.

Some noble houses in Linn Province had already formed alliances for this competition before they came to this coliseum. But with shocking results in this early competition, some minor powers not yet allied with anyone felt in the position of being forced to move.

Some of the losers in the first few matches of the day were precisely their most reliable competitors, so they could not help but move before it was too late.

Not everyone was an enemy of the Frost family, but everyone was interested in this family's fall since this would improve everyone's position. So, while some were positively and negatively surprised, others rushed to present their reaction as soon as possible!

...

"How is that possible?" Fritz threw a glass of wine against one of the windows of his VIP room, infuriated by Lothur's positive result.

"How? How did this bastard undo the seals on his fucking body? That doesn't make any sense! His father should be a monster!" He bellowed at his bodyguards, not believing the disgrace that had hovered over all of them.

Fritz's faction was afraid that Lothur would join that monster as their enemy in the future, even considering the seals that should make him similar to a mortal. But with this young man without seals, cultivating at his best age for cultivation, everything only worsened.

And with that, not only was this young master of the Stauss family very worried about this situation, but his bodyguards, who also knew Lothur's secrets, were too.

This young man then gave his orders. "Send a message to my father. We must get a group to act against the bastard if he doesn't die during this damned competition!"

"Yes, young master!"

...

Meanwhile, Simon had reached a deserted area of the coliseum basement, where he knew he could find one of his contacts.

In that dark place, he did not take long to smell the dust in the air and cigars in the hands of the three individuals there waiting for him. Seeing these people, he stopped his steps and looked at them as if he had eaten shit. "The Frost family..."

"No need to talk. We already know everything!" One of them said while he had a terrible face on his face.

At the same time, Kai, who was also standing there, looked at Simon disgustedly as if this was all their ally's fault. "You didn't know about any of this?"

"Of course not!" Aiken's uncle exclaimed in defense of himself. "How would I know? The entire family is shocked by this initial performance of our organization..."

"We're not talking about the performance of the damned Frost family, although that pisses us off!" One of them said while looking at that man. "We're talking about damned Lothur."

"Lothur? What about him?" Simon asked since he had left for this place before finding out about the deeds of his family's young master.

Kai looked strangely at that fellow but felt that his ally seemed sincere. "The bastard won his two trials."

"What? How is that possible? He's a good-for-nothing! The kid doesn't even know what's good for himself. How could he win anything?" He exclaimed, not accepting such absurdity.

"Sigh!"

"Whether you like it or not, he did this and demonstrated how much talent he was hiding from all of us." The third individual said this, feeling there was no point in pressuring Simon further since this man was demonstrating that he was still on their side.

When he heard this confirmation, Simon looked at the floor without understanding what was happening. He then muttered. "I didn't know that. I didn't count on this brat doing so well. That's why the family score is higher than expected."

"Yes, we know," Kai commented. "Then we must act more vigorously against him in the upcoming trials. We cannot allow him to continue competing among the formations masters."

"Yes, that would only give the Frost family more points..." The other two nodded in agreement.

"But what are we going to do against him in the battles? The wretch is probably stronger than he believed, or he wouldn't show himself like that." Simon realized that problem.

Kai then said. "We had guessed that. So, let's act as best we can in this day's two combat trials."

Another of them, a man dressed very exquisitely with a beard and white hair, said. "The Baier family will have the opportunity to act against him in his first battle. Then we will see what they do. Then, if they fail, one of our people will act against him in the second round of individual fights."

The other man added. "We'll still have two collective matches to act against him later, so we'll have plenty of opportunities."

They did not know how good Lothur was, but considering that Viktoria was in the same group as him, everyone there already considered that her group would pass the first round.

The question was, would they be able to kill Lothur in one of the individual matches? Or would they do it in one of the team games?

And with that, it did not take long for each of them to go their separate ways, going about making their adjustments so that their actions against the Frost family and Lothur would yield positive results.

...

Meanwhile, Lothur and his women had finally reached the site of Annaliese's first match of the day.

Annaliese's first match was a competition for spiritual cooks, which would take place on the 5th platform.

Upon arriving at this place, the three watched the end of a first-round contest before Annaliese heard her name being called and bid them farewell.

"Lothur, sister, it's my turn now. Cheer for me!" She smiled as she said this and hurried to demonstrate her cooking skills to her man.

As Lothur smiled back at her, standing next to Viktoria, he asked his wife. "How is Annaliese cooking?"

Viktoria made a serious expression and said. "She's better than me..."

"Oh? But that's not a standard, dear. Many are..." He was about to say, but then his wife gave him an icy look, and he stopped before he finished his words.

She then said. "I think Anna has a chance of making it to the second day. But I don't think she can make it to the third."

"Is that so?" He looked interestedly at his wife, considering that Annaliese's profession might be affected by her Constitution. "Maybe she will surprise you. I feel that Anna has improved a lot in the last few days... Maybe that will give her some advantage that you are overlooking."

"Oh?" She looked at him.

Spiritual cooking depended equally in terms of Intelligence, Perception, and Dexterity. Since Dexterity could be improved more quickly if the Constitution was far above such a trait, Lothur was sure that Annaliese could improve in her profession just because of her activities with him...

And with that, he did not think it impossible for her to achieve an even better result than Viktoria had in mind. Especially considering that he intended to raise his characteristics using her EVF points soon, which would be handy for his women.

"Hmm, you'll see. Anna will make it to the third day of trials." He assured his wife.
