Mixed Blessing System

"Good morning, Lothur!" Elke greeted him soon after seeing him coming toward her, smiling at him as she ran one of her hands through her red hair.

Noticing the expression on that woman's face, Lothur smiled and waved to her, pleased to see how this woman looked even more beautiful than the day before.

"Good morning, Elke. You look a little different today..."

"Is that so?" She asked in surprise. "I didn't do anything different today, but I woke up feeling more energetic for some reason."

"Hehe, I can imagine." He sat down next to her and then greeted the other women sitting around before finally turning his attention to the woman next to him.

"So? Did you do what I told you yesterday?"

"I..." Elke's cheeks suddenly turned pink as she tried to turn her eyes away from Lothur's.

Gulp!

"I struggled in my studies, but I confess I couldn't help but think about what happened to us." She said softly, something only the two of them could hear.

"Is that it?" He looked at her with interest. "Do you regret what you did yesterday? We can stop this if you want..."

"No!" She said a little louder as she held Lothur's right forearm. "I don't regret anything, and I'm willing to continue."

"Oh?" Lothur liked to hear that, finding it fascinating how determined this woman was. 'Well, that's not strange...'

'In my life on earth, I have met several women like her even though I had less than 30% of my current attractiveness and much less experience.' He pondered in silence.

"Well, you are sincere, so even if you have not been able to keep your thoughts under control, I will still show you something new later."

"But I hope you will be able to live up to our agreements next time. All right?"

She nodded at him silently, curious to know what it was that Lothur would show her later.

"But since you haven't fulfilled our 'agreement' perfectly, I want you to do one other thing for me before that... Is that okay with you?"

"What do you want?"

"Nothing much."

"I just want you to accompany me to the Innumerable Scrolls store after this class. I need to see this place, but I confess I don't know its location."

"Oh?" She said in surprise, interested in this simple task but curious about this man.

Elke knew of the story concerning the first lady of House Frost that ran through the four corners of Peters City. However, she had not associated the figure of Lothur with Viktoria's husband.

Not only because she did not know Viktoria's husband personally, but because the person next to her did not resemble the city good-for-nothing at all.

With that in mind, even though she knew Lothur's name, she had no idea of his background and was curious to learn more about this man who had treated her so distinctively the day before.

"It's okay. I can do that." She said this after watching him for a moment. "But if you don't mind my asking, why do you want to go to that place? Isn't it better that you simply go to the cultivation area in our sector?"

"There are various techniques of all kinds in that place, and there are still teachers and even students who can help you understand them."

"It's definitely much simpler and more economical for you to do it here..."

But Lothur had nothing to do about that. "Well, that's complicated, but understand that I truly need to go to this place."

He took a brief break while looking at her intensely and then asked. "Well? Will you help me?"

"Yes. Can we do it after this class? Or do you have a class after Miss Koch's discipline?"

Students in the same sector could have different class schedules at the Morning Star Academy. Not only that, even students with similar schedules could take lessons in different classes.

That was the case with Lothur and Elke. They had a geopolitics class together but took each of the other subjects in this institution in different classes.

So, not knowing about Lothur's free time, Elke had questioned him on this point.

'I even have a class after that period in Anneke's subject, but it's something I can learn on my own at the local library.'

"No. I'm free after this Miss Koch class." He said to her without delay.

"Perfect."

After that, the two continued to talk for some more time, constantly over the eyes of Elke's three young admirers.

But as the conversations in that area created a turbulent melody around that amphitheater, Anneke finally stepped up onto the class stage, causing the voices in the surroundings to subside suddenly.

She looked at her class for a moment and then saw the figure of Lothur smiling while talking to Elke. 'This guy...'

'He's truly confident even without any talent!'

'Even though he is married to the first lady of House Frost, he still has the nerve to flirt with the young lady of the Becker family!' Anneke pondered this as she prepared her class instruments.

Unlike Lothur, she naturally knew Peters City's powers very well and knew where each of her students came from.

With this knowledge, she could not help but admire Lothur's audacity in flirting with a lady of great local economic power, despite the fact that he was already Viktoria's husband.

'Elke is not talented at cultivation, but still, her family's power is so great that any faults she has, disappear in its face.'

'Does he know what he is getting involved in? Or is his arrogance at that level?' She looked at that young man's face and saw him winking at her while smiling.

'And he still makes that gesture to me while flirting with another woman!' She felt an urge to hit Lothur but stopped herself from doing so by clenching her fists tightly.

"Sigh..."

'Calm down, Anneke. He's just a fool who doesn't know of the danger in his surroundings.' She deeply sighed as she closed her eyes to calm herself.

She then said aloud. "Students, open your books where we left off last class and read the first ten pages."

"Meanwhile..."

"Student Ritter, come over here."

Hearing Anneke's words, the many students in that place did not find her orders strange and soon began to open their books simultaneously.

On the other hand, Lothur got up from his seat and walked over to that woman, curious to know what she wanted with him.

But no one in the amphitheater thought it strange that such a beautiful teacher wanted to talk to Lothur. After all, he was a new student, and even old students could be called upon by teachers from time to time.

Thus, that place soon went silent as many people read and Lothur stood face to face with Anneke next to her desk.

"Is there a problem, Miss Koch?" He smiled at her, curious.

"Miss Koch, eh? Now you call me that?"

"Of course."

"As I said, in class, I will do as you said and address my teacher formally. Only outside will I use the name, Anne..."

Her eyes then sharpened, and she made an advisory expression at him. "Your tongue will one day lead you to despair..."

"But lucky for you, I won't be the one to lead you to that."

"Good!" He said without caring about the look on her face.

"Anyway, since you're new here and don't seem to know where you're stepping, let me give you some advice..." She looked in Elke's direction and continued. "That young lady you were flirting with earlier, Elke."

"I would not advise you to get involved with her. She particularly won't harm you willingly, but you should be careful when relating to powerful people."

"Especially considering your wife's family."

"Powerful family?" He said in surprise.

"Hmm, House Becker is not as strong as your wife's family, but they are influential in Peters City."

"Besides, even though they are not an enemy of your family, they are not friends either."

"I'm telling you this because this little game of yours can create much bigger problems than you realize."
