Mixed Blessing System

After adding more coins and valuable items to his spatial ring, Lothur went victoriously to the competitors' area to rest and watch his wife compete.

On this day, he had no opportunity to be alone with Elke or Annaliese due to the finals and everyone's attention being focused on the Coliseum.

But it was okay. He would soon return to his routine, returning to his academy classes. Also, he would have more time away from his wife so he could be with these other women.

While resting next to Annaliese, Lothur ignored the hateful and jealous glances in his direction and followed the music competition.

Viktoria played her instruments very well, one of the most talented in this province, one of the few able to play the harp well at her age.

Her musical skills were highly refined, the kind that when she played that instrument, the entire Coliseum fell silent to hear her melody.

On the outside, Viktoria looked extremely cold, even arrogant to people who did not know her. But her melodies were like she was in bed with Lothur, warm, full of emotion.

As she played her instruments, thousands of people in this place closed their eyes. They felt the musical notes, many of them even shivering in emotion.

Mortals enjoyed the melody, but low-level cultivators in the area took the opportunity to absorb knowledge.

Spiritual music was more of a support profession in this cultivation world. Not only could it be used in combat to affect the minds of both sides of a battle, but it could also aid in cultivating understanding.

Hell, a high-level musician could even help lower-level individuals break through bottlenecks!

That way, the Mortal Warriors in the Coliseum soon absorbed Viktoria's melody, sensing some of this woman's understandings.

"Majestic!"

"Splendid!"

"Young Miss Frost is truly talented. She has already reached this level at such a young age..." One of the many musicians there praised, smiling in joy at hearing a prodigy of his profession ascending.

Each spiritual professional had their pride and goals. Thus, it was natural for them to have a rivalry against others. But there was nothing like meeting someone better than you, a new talent in your profession.

It could be a threat, but it could also be a new stimulus, a possibility for new creations to emerge. And that was good for everybody, even rivals or competitors!

So many musicians were there enjoying Viktoria playing her instrument, 'brutalizing' her opponent, who was waiting for her turn to play.

"Ah, every time I see Young Miss Frost playing, I feel that it is more of a shame that she is with that person..." A young man there exclaimed, feeling extremely envious of Lothur.

"Don't tell me! Before, I hated him for being with our goddess, but now, I hate him even more for him not being just useless..."

"Yes, before, it would have been easier to get rid of him..."

Young men began to discuss the matter in different parts of the Coliseum while Lothur listened to his wife playing.

"Lothur, are you interested in learning music? I bet you would be great at that profession too." Annaliese said as she hugged one of her man's arms.

Lothur laughed and said. "No. Although I agree with you, I prefer to leave my women's professions to them."

"Oh?" She found his comment overconfident as if he was saying that he would be better than them at everything if he so chose. "Are you saying that you can cook better than me?"

"I'm saying that I'd rather eat your food, listen to Viktoria play, see the pictures painted by her, or the sculptures made by you." He answered sincerely.

"Humph, I'll take your word for it this time..." She pouted at him, turning her attention back to her sister.

In that instant, Viktoria won the final of this competition for musicians, taking the podium along with the second and third-place winners.

After a few moments, she was awarded the prize and left the competition platform to the applause of almost everyone in the Coliseum.

With that, she soon arrived at her husband's side with her usual calm expression but soon fell into his embrace.

"Now all that's left are the warrior matches in the individual and group fights." She remarked to Lothur and Annaliese, sensing the closeness of the end of this edition of the Province Conference.

Hearing this, Annaliese clenched her fists and said. "I hope I don't get in the way of you two too much."

"Don't worry, Anna. The group competition is not our focus." Lothur said, but without wanting to make her feel worse for it.

Their chances were not great, so he did not even consider the possibility of his group winning.

Was it Annaliese's fault? No, it was the fault of the traitors in the Frost family. They had sabotaged two of the strongest competitors of the group of 16 individuals from this family registered for the conference.

Lothur and Viktoria did not know that Simon had set this up. Still, they both suspected that the situation of the two young men from this family who had to miss the competition was no coincidence.

So such a thing was responsible for their group having only three people and them being at a disadvantage in this group competition!

"In any case, we're hardly going to be able to improve our position much further," Viktoria said, looking at the current ranking of the tournament.

[6th. Frost Family: 76]

The Frost family had surpassed Houses Becker and Geissler, two powers that were in front of them previously.

Seeing this, the people of Elke's family did not feel too bad, as they managed to overtake House Geissler, maintaining their position.

Since Lothur was very close to them, and that would mean House Frost could be too, they could not complain about the present moment.

It was a shame they did not raise their position more and try to compete for the top three. But the families in the top three were powerful, with a generation of geniuses that only Lothur and Viktoria could compete with.

So they did not feel unfairly treated, and no one was grumpy in Elke's family's VIP area.

But this situation was quite different for House Geissler, who had lost two positions and, with that, would win nothing and still risk losing possessions after this tournament!

'Shit!'

'Damned Lothur!' Several people from that family had similar thoughts as the people from the Province Conference began to prepare the platform for the warriors' fights.

...

After a few minutes, all 13 youths who were going to compete in the individual fights were profiled next to the fighting platform, eager for their matches.

Lothur and Viktoria were there, for the first time, with a chance to fight each other.

But as before, Lothur would start fighting in the first round, the round of 16, while Viktoria once again, by coincidence, was left out of the first few matches.

Soon, this young man faced his first opponent, someone at level 11, a member of the Waldauer family.

This person had a strange look in his eyes as if he was ready to attack his prey mercilessly.

Viktoria saw this and warned her man. "Be careful."

"Hmm, don't worry." He kissed her before moving towards his place under the gaze of that opponent.

'What's going to happen now?'
