Mixed Blessing System

After the tense situation, Viktoria headed alongside Elise to the disciplinary area of the Frost estate, intending to continue with the previous night’s incident investigations.

On the other hand, Lothur returned to his room since he had nothing to do about it.

He was annoyed by what had happened. After all, he had been easily deceived. However, resolving this matter was far beyond his current capabilities. Therefore, he tried not to pursue this matter, intending to prepare for the Morning Star Academy.

‘I have to improve my resistance to poisons…’ He pondered this as he finished putting on his clothes in his room.

He had already been poisoned twice, and now realizing the danger he was in, he could not help but think of himself using that to his advantage!

Lothur did not know whether the next person who tried to poison him would make the same mistake as his enemy the night before. So, he wanted to stimulate his resistance to poisons himself, using controlled doses.

‘I think I’ll try to learn about the profession of poison masters so I can work this out as best I can.’ He made up his mind as he was already walking through the corridors of that area where his room was.

‘Anyway, today I will start my mission with Elke, so maybe I can learn something about that.’

Previously, Lothur had arranged with Elke for a team mission, which could help the two get merit points within the Morning Star Academy.

This silver-haired man wanted to move up sectors within that institution, but to do so, he needed those merit points. But, on the other hand, he enjoyed himself beside Elke, so he wanted to take her as high as possible in that place.

Since he was sure he could take her to Sector-2, maybe even Sector-3, he had no reason to leave her behind or not try to do things that would be positive for both sides.

He was still ignorant about this society, while Elke was someone who had some of the information he needed. And as much as he could accomplish the same with other people, there was no reason for him not to try that with her.

That way, later today, they would proceed to the local Cultivation House, where their mission would begin.

For such a mission, the two would have to train a young man from another part of this province, someone who did not enter that academy due to its competition.

At the same time, they would have to serve as guides for him in Peters City and protect such youth from possible trouble.

The crime was everywhere, and ‘tourists’ like the contractors of this mission, were one of the favorite types of victims of criminals!

Hence, people coming from outside this city need to seek services like this at the local academy or the Cultivation House.

Anyway, when thinking about this mission, Lothur soon put in his plans to later pay for the investigations of the previous incident at the academy and those involving Willi and Erika.

That would cost him coins that he did not want to spend at the moment, but he already had in mind to collect those expenses from the people who acted against him with interest!

With all this in mind, he soon met up with Annaliese and continued his daytime responsibilities.

…

After spending half the day in the cultivator training complex of the local academy, Lothur and Elke left this woman’s room, heading for the Cultivation House.

“Lothur, did you like that? Did I do it right?” Elke asked as she walked side by side with the person she was already in love with, feeling ashamed of what she had done today.

Seeing the redness on his companion’s face, Lothur smiled at her inexperience and commented in a whisper tone. “Trust me, Elke, you did well.”

“Hehe, that would only have been better if you had used another part of your body…”

“What? Another part?” She felt shocks traveling through her body as she remembered how she had first seen Lothur naked and touched parts no maiden should.

She then felt anxious and said. “You mean…”

“Well, it wouldn’t be the same, but that would please me. However, I was talking about it here…” He pointed to her mouth, making her imagine shameless things.

“That…”

“Can I do something like that? Wouldn’t that be weird?”

“That would give me so much satisfaction like when you felt it when I kissed you down there…” He suggested in one of her ears, making her feel more heat throughout her body.

Gulp!

‘I’ll do it next time!’ She made up her mind without delay as she looked down at Lothur’s body. ‘I wonder what it will taste like…’

‘No, how can I think about that? The most important thing is how I will manage to do it!’

After this brief intimate conversation, the two quickly arrived at the Cultivation House, where Lothur wasted no time going to the area where people could hire private investigators.

Arriving at that place that looked like an ordinary hallway with many rooms, Lothur and Elke soon found where the person available to assist them was.

“Hello, how can I help you?” A middle-aged woman sitting on one side of a small wooden table in a room with only four chairs and that table observed that young and beautiful couple.

Seeing that person waving to them and indicating to close the door after entering there, the two soon did that and sat down on the other side of that table.

“Well?” She smiled, interested to know what a mortal and such a weak woman wanted in that place.

Elke looked at the man at her side, seeing the serious expression on his face. He then said. “I have heard that this area of the Cultivation House offers investigation services. Is that true?”

That woman nodded to Lothur but said nothing, waiting for him to continue.

“Well, I want to hire investigations regarding three people.”

“One of them is named Willi, or at least that’s what he told me. He’s a good friend of mine. We’ve had some good times and even went out drinking occasionally. But I’m recently worried because I haven’t seen him for days…” Lothur said in a nervous tone, making an expression that even Elke believed in the nervousness that he was talking about his good friend.

‘I didn’t know Lothur had friends…’ So she thought in curiosity as this man had not explained to her all about what he wanted in this place.

Lothur then continued. “Another person I want to investigate is named Erika. She is part of the Mouse Company, and for some reason, I feel that she and Willi had more in common than I was told.”

“I want to know if they were members of the same organization.” 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎ𝚎𝚝

‘Erika?’ Elke’s eyes opened wide as her intuition began to work in an attempt to guess who this woman was.

“Mouse Company, huh?” That woman who wore an all-gray outfit finally said something, interested in how this mortal was curious about people from the local underworld. “If those two have any influence, it won’t be cheap to investigate people from that organization.”

“Don’t worry. They were both at the early levels of the 1st stage from what I found out on my own…”

“Oh? Then that will be easy.” She said as she jotted down some information on a piece of paper that was on a clipboard. “What about the third person?”

“That person is the most complicated of all. I don’t know his name or appearance. Still, I know he has decision-making power within the Collective Trading Room of the Morning Star Academy.”

“I imagine he might be behind corrupt actions in that place…”

“I want that individual’s last few years to be analyzed and all his slip-ups to be documented.”

“I am looking for any evidence that could topple him from his position.” He said with a look typical of those on a hunt, wishing to obtain what was necessary to destroy such a person’s career.

Lothur had already heard from Elke that this place kept its clients and investigations confidential. That was why he had been so open with that Cultivation House investigative group employee.

“It may be difficult to get information from an employee of that institution, but as long as you are willing to pay, anything is possible.” That person finished her notes and looked into Lothur’s eyes.

“We don’t care about your motives for seeking information from these people, but we require certain guarantees for our work.”

“Are you willing to go through with it?”
