Mixed Blessing System

After a while, Larissa was at one of the Frost family posts in Peters City, where Viktoria usually worked with her family.

Viktoria rarely went to the academy. She was very talented and had many responsibilities in her decadent family. So unlike Larissa, who lived away from her family and had fewer responsibilities, this wife of Lothur spent less time at the Morning Star Academy.

However, she was well-informed of the issues circulating in the city and the academy. Thus, even though she was not in that place, Viktoria was already aware of the problem encountered by Lothur's group.

When Larissa met with her, Viktoria was not surprised and got straight to the point.

"Are you here because of this demon?" She asked as she met with that beautiful white-haired woman across a table.

Larissa affirmed and said. "Do you know anything more than the rumors are saying? Have you heard from Lothur?"

"Why do you want to know about my husband?"

Larissa saw that Viktoria was not happy to see her asking about Lothur and smiled. "You shouldn't worry about that. I'm not that kind of woman."

"Really? I wouldn't know..."

"Anyway." Larissa closed her eyes and made a neutral expression. "I'm here because I'm worried about the rumors. Will Lothur be okay? I just did business with him, and I hope he lives long enough to bear fruit for me."

"I don't know." Viktoria was honest. "Lothur is not a demon hunter, so if he met with one, he wouldn't know how to kill it. But my husband is very resilient and has his means of escape."

"Are you sure about that?" That woman expressed uncertainty and concern in her gaze.

"I have no way to be sure. I wasn't there when it happened..." Viktoria closed her eyes and thought of Lothur, worried but confident that he would return.

News of Lothur's departure with the demon had not yet reached this town. However, Elke had found out about it right when young Ritter escaped from the previous Transcendent. So Viktoria was still in the dark about that fact and the dangers her husband might face for having used an escape device given to him by a Daemon man.

She would be more worried if she were aware of this!

That region Lothur was now in was far worse than a mere 2nd stage demon!

'With a body as strong as his, he should be fine...' That brown-haired woman thought to herself while remembering her husband's many abilities.

Viktoria had to admit, Lothur was hard to kill!

"I wouldn't worry if I were you. So many people are already allied with my husband and wish for his well-being. So even if he is in trouble, he will certainly have many supporters to help him in a short time." She said to Larissa as she stood up and pointed the way out to this opponent.

"I can say the opposite as well." Larissa stood up and said. "He has many enemies who wish to kill him and will not miss the opportunity to act in this moment of difficulty."

Viktoria could not counter such words, as she remained silent before leading that woman to the exit.

Upon getting rid of that person, she promptly arranged her things at that location and ran to her family's estate, intending to ask her mother for help.

Mabel did not like Lothur. But recently, this young man had made several contributions to the Frost family that she had seen no choice but to isolate herself so as not to stress herself daily.

Lothur helping the Frost family was a bit strange to her, who had criticized him so many times in the recent past.

She did not feel good about it all and was letting her husband and daughter deal with the issues involving him.

But even knowing this, Viktoria could not hesitate to ask her mother for help in this moment of difficulty.

Lothur would probably be fine, but she wanted Mabel to be at least more proactive in acting favorably toward him!

...

While Viktoria was going to talk to her mother, the Duke of the Province had already found out about the events in the Linn Mountains and during Lothur's group's departure to such a place.

'He has already reached that level...' This man thought to himself at the seat of the provincial government, feeling that his friend Klossner's warning was probably right.

​ He had heard of the failure of the local powers, who had even sent patriarchs to try to finish off Lothur the night before. So even without proof that this young man's car would be as revolutionary as Klossner claimed, this man no longer doubted it so much.

Lothur was around 20 years old, but he was already so strong that he could fight local patriarchs and ensure the retreat of a group like the one that had attacked him.

Had he had help? Yes, but that could not overshadow his performance!

This man knew this and was naturally concerned about how far Lothur could get in a few more weeks.

And now, with the information that Lothur had encountered a demon, this man was not as hopeful as some of his local allies were. Instead, he was already considering the possibility that young Ritter might get a Soul Bone because of this!

He knew that Lothur was not a demon hunter. Still, if such a young man were lucky, it would not be impossible to negotiate with someone with the necessary skills to kill a demon to deliver him that bone!

And with that, things would only get worse for Lothur's enemies!

'I feel that something bad will happen to my family if I stand against him...' He clenched his fists and called to his son. "Martin, come here. I have something for you."

A few moments later, that level 15 man walked into his father's workplace and asked. "What is it?"

"I want you to relay a message to our family members and subordinates. If Lothur Ritter returns alive to Peters City, I don't want anyone from our forces antagonizing him. At the same time, be prepared for us to move away from the faction of the third prince." He said as he thought about what was best for his family.

Politics were not so different in this cultivation world from what Lothur had seen on Earth. People on opposite sides could change sides as fast as the blink of an eye!

As long as conditions changed, someone would abandon whatever boat they were in to ensure their survival!

There was no eternal loyalty!

But still, Martin was shocked to hear his father's orders, unable to answer this individual for some time as he stared at the Duke in silence.

"How will we do that?" He asked after a while, knowing it was not easy to leave a faction.

The Duke said. "Start the talks with the faction of the second prince. But make it clear that we are only willing to join them if they do not require us to fight against Lothur and his interests!"
