Mixed Blessing System

Upon hearing the truth in Lothur’s comment, Viktoria and Aiken felt embarrassed and couldn’t say anything to him.

There were flaws in the security of this property, which was not as unusual as one would typically think.

The aging of some devices and the arrogance of influential powers led to security breaches, which were generally not exploited because of the fear that most would feel of these organizations. But just because something does not show symptoms does not mean it’s perfect or does not have its problems!

The Frost family was like that. It had flaws related to its decadence, which worsened as time passed. But never before had they had so many security breaches as in the present times.

Because of this, until recently, the leaders of this organization thought they had a well-structured, clean, and safe headquarters.

But with Lothur to test them, they had found out otherwise, and now they could only be ashamed of themselves in front of his sharp tongue!

He then finished his comment. “I know there are risks living outside here, but there are also significant risks here. In any case, I’d rather take my chances out there than stay in this place.”

Aiken sighed as he heard this, seeing that the treatment Lothur had received in this place had been so bad that he would rather risk his own life than remain in this place.

“Sigh…”

“All right then, but be careful.” He said with his head down as he looked at Viktoria, standing behind Lothur.

“Father, don’t worry. Lothur and I will be fine.” She said, without trying to convince her husband to return on his words. “In any case, I doubt that enemies will notice our move so quickly.”

“At least until the end of the Province Conference, I think we will have peace to live in our new place without problems.”

He agreed to that and thought that was fine for the time being. ‘As long as they take care to protect their identities when accessing their new location, it will probably take enemy spies a few days to realize what’s going on…’

“All right. You can leave.” He sighed and said to Lothur. “Don’t forget to come and participate in the occasion I commented on earlier. We will have a big breakfast on Tuesday morning, and I want you to be by my side to identify the enemy.”

“OK, Viktoria will bring me in on Tuesday.” Lothur agreed to that as he looked at his wife and saw her nodding.

After saying goodbye, Lothur soon left alongside his beautiful wife, who left most of her things at her residence, which she said she would keep for appearance’s sake.

So, they soon made their way to a local hotel that was not among the best but not the worst, one good enough for them.

In doing so, the two were using objects to cover their identities, which did not prevent them from getting a place, and it was necessary to slow down the news of this spreading.

Finally, after paying a fee of 200 bronze coins per day for 30 days, the most cost-effective reservation, the couple quickly arrived at their new love nest.

That was not a prominent place like Viktoria’s residence. But there was a small living room in conjunction with the dining room, a good-sized double bedroom, and two bathrooms, one for the couple, the other for guests.

The decoration was decent, much better than where Lothur had stayed with Annaliese but inferior to Viktoria’s residence. Yet, the furniture and paintings were elegant, made of materials that looked decent.

All in all, the place looked quite cozy, like a small apartment for couples where Lothur had come from, the only difference being the absence of a kitchen.

Since neither of them could cook, it would not make any difference.

“Lothur, is this really what you want?” Viktoria sat on her husband’s lap just after the two had finished getting acquainted with the place, and he had taken a seat on the only sofa in the living room.

“Sure!” He excitedly replied. “This place may not be like your residence, it may seem strange and unfamiliar, but here we will have peace to live our lives!”

“What about security? I don’t think enemies will have any trouble getting to us.” She said as she felt his hands on her waist and looked him in the eyes.

“I’ll set up some formations around here. If anyone tries to surprise us, at least we’ll be warned in time to react.” He said, not worrying too much about the security issue.

Security could become a problem if everyone knew they were there, alone. But they had several advantages to protect them for the time being.

Besides hiding their identities, Viktoria would maintain her daily presence on the Frost estate, and no one would expect her family to allow such a thing. So, at least in the short term, trouble should be unlikely to arise.

Even if it happened, they would have Lothur’s formations, and it was unlikely that anyone would act so directly against them just because of this recent change.

Peters City had its laws, and the powers under the rule of the Leopoldine family did not act so openly.

Otherwise, Viktoria’s family would not have been contaminated with undercover agents or traitors. Instead, they would have been surrounded and massacred!

But Lothur knew there was a risk that some power like the Mouse Company would try something against them. As such, he had his plans to improve their security in the days ahead.

“Sigh…”

Viktoria sighed, wondering what to do with this man of hers. “All right, we’ll find a way to live here for the time being. But what do you want to do now? How about showing me some of your skills?”

“What skill are you talking about?” He firmly grabbed one of her buttocks and smiled, thinking his wife’s suggestion was somewhat ambiguous.

Viktoria realized what Lothur meant and turned red with embarrassment, noting how dirty his mind was. But she liked how he took her with enthusiasm and could not help but smile back at him.

“As my husband, you have to take care of me in bed, but I was talking about your fighting skills, silly!” 𝚋ｅｄｎ𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃｏ𝚖

“Oh?” He laughed as he brought her closer to him. “I can show you that another time… I don’t think we can do that in this place, after all.”

“So, for now, let me just take my responsibilities as a husband.” He stood up while he already had her firmly pinned to his body, planning to take her to bed.

Viktoria did not think it was bad and hugged him tightly, smiling in anticipation of something she had been waiting for, for the last 48 hours.

“Tomorrow, I will go to the academy with you, and we will have a brief fight so you can show me what you are capable of.” She commented just before he placed her on the bed and began to undress.

“As you wish, dear… But now, I think it’s time for me to eat something, no? I’m starving.”

She laughed but spread her legs for him, eager to give him her precious nectar…
