Upon hearing Elke's nonsense, Alric was about to grab this woman's wrist to get her out of his way when suddenly Lothur stopped him.
"What do you think you are doing?" He asked this as he pushed that unpleasant fellow away from Elke.
Lothur did not yet know how to sense other people's cultivation. But even though he did not know that Elke was no match for Alric, Viktoria's husband would not allow another man to touch his woman.
Yes, his woman. He and Elke had no feelings for each other and were not doing anything incredibly intimate. But Lothur was a selfish man who did not accept the idea of sharing his women.
Even in a casual relationship, he would not allow another man to touch the woman he was with!
Even more, considering that fellow did not seem to care about hurting Elke, something Lothur found highly unacceptable.
"Humph!"
"For a worm who hides behind a woman, you kind of have some attitude, trash!" Alric angrily commented with an arrogant look on his face, glaring at the man in front of Elke.
"Well? Do you accept my challenge?"
"Of course not," Lothur said as he turned to Elke and took one of her hands as if preparing to leave that place.
"Then what is your problem? Are you going to allow her to fight in your place, coward?" Alric shouted for everyone in that amphitheater to hear him as his face turned red.
"I don't know if your parents let you hit your head when you were minor, but you should seek help, loser." Lothur looked back and said this. "Your opinion doesn't matter to me. I don't need to fight with you, and Elke doesn't need to do anything either."
"Who do you think you are?"
Lothur laughed and shook his head. "Tsk!"
"A mere brat has no right to speak such absurdities."
"What?"
"You miserable, son of a..." Alric was about to explode in hatred when suddenly Professor Koch entered that place.
"What's going on here?" She shouted as she saw the crowd surrounding Lothur and Elke. At the same time, there was significant tension in the air.
But upon realizing this, rather than getting more involved in this situation, Lothur simply pulled Elke into his arms, leading her out of that amphitheater.
In the meantime, the rest of the room, including Alric, lost sight of those two as they were distracted by that teacher.
'Damn it!'
'The wretch escaped without my noticing!' Alric cursed Lothur in his mind but did nothing.
Now that Anneke had already directed her attention to him, Alric had no choice but to endure that woman's sermon.
As for this woman, she showed all her unhappiness at seeing these people disrupting her class, but she was also interested in what she had just seen.
'This Lothur...'
'He's definitely not the useless guy everyone thinks he is.' She thought about it as she remembered how he had left that place unnoticed by the other students.
However, she, a 6th Transformation cultivator, could not be fooled by his movement technique!
'Anyway, it looks like he escaped a good scolding...' She laughed in her heart, remembering the rules of this place and Lothur's situation.
The Morning Star Academy naturally allowed fights between students since this was an extremely competitive place. However, there were rules about how this could happen.
And among the prohibitions, students were not allowed to disrupt classes because of personal disputes!
So, Anneke was interested in how Lothur had escaped this problem, dodging possible penalties.
'Next time I see him, I will try to understand why he is hiding.'
...
Meanwhile, Lothur and Elke had finally reached the end of an empty corridor, where there was no sign of people for dozens of meters.
"Lothur..." Elke looked at him in surprise, thinking how fast he was moving as he carried her in his arms.
'You are not someone without cultivation!' Her eyes widened as she thought of her experience at his side days ago.
'How could he be? Someone with Green talent has great potential for the standard of our province!'
'Then why is he hiding? Why is he in Sector-1?' Questions began to arise chaotically in her confused mind as she felt him still holding her in his arms.
"Elke, let's talk." He finally said something just before putting her back down.
After seeing the serious look on his face, Elke's eyes twitched, and she asked in an unsure tone. "Lothur... What Alric said... Is that true?"
"Yes, it is true."
She opened her mouth momentarily and then closed it as her eyes reddened. "How can that be? Then why are you acting intimate with me? Are you just playing with me?"
"No, Elke, I'm not playing with you." He moved closer to her, slowly pressing her against a wall. "I won't go into details, but Viktoria has not forbidden me to be with other women."
"So, unless you have a problem with being with a committed man, there won't be any problem regarding her."
"And just so you know, I want to be with you."
Gulp!
"How can you say something like that? Of course, I don't want to be with another woman's man. What future would I have by doing that?"
"You would have me." He touched one of her cheeks, feeling the tears streaming from her eyes.
Lothur might have thought there was no feeling between them, but this woman was already beginning to fall in love with him. Considering this, upon discovering the terrible truth about this man, she could not help but feel an ache in her heart.
"Would I have you?" She was surprised by his unusual response.
"Yes, you would have me." He touched his lips against hers and felt her involuntary responses mixed with her reluctance.
But as she felt this young man's grip, it was not long before Elke gave into his arms, kissing him even more intensely than at other times.
"Mmmm~"
As she felt the heat of her body rise, the redhead began to talk about this relationship. "Lothur, I don't think we should do that~"
"Besides, you are already committed. My family will never give me to you~"
"You are asking too much of me~"
"Don't worry about those details, Elke. I'll take care of everything~" He commented amidst their kisses.
"You just need to follow your instincts and know I will make it happen. I'll give you exactly what you need~"
"But~" She closed her eyes as she felt Lothur playing with her ears and neck. "I don't know if I can accept sharing you with others~"
"I'll make it worth your while, Elke~"
"Plus, if you were my woman, I'd probably spend more time with you than with Viktoria~"
"Is that so?" She looked at him more seriously, feeling happy to hear that.
But while waiting for an answer from him, she suddenly felt one of his hands touching a particular part of her body.
"Uh? What are you..."
"Shh!"
"Stay calm. I'll make you relax a little. Just give me a minute..." Lothur smiled at her before returning to kissing and 'playing' with his hands.
...
"Hah... Hah... What was that?"
After a little over a minute, Elke gasped as she felt a sensation hard to forget in her body.
And while leaning on Lothur's arms due to the weakness in her legs, she felt even more confused at this instant. Her body genuinely wanted to continue the relationship with him. Still, her mind told her there would only be trouble ahead of them.
But as she felt her gaze clouded by the doubts in her heart, she heard his voice. "Trust me. I will solve any problem that comes along."
"I know the problems I may have because of this, but I am reassured about the future. You can stay that way too." He held one of her hands and looked into her eyes intensely.
"And don't worry about that person. I'll deal with him later. So, he won't get in our way."
Elke was surprised to see how willing he was to get into trouble just for her, someone with ordinary talent and beauty inferior to Viktoria's.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" She asked. "Once we walk further, there may be no turning back..."
He just smiled at her, indicating that there was no doubt in his mind.
Elke then sighed in relief and accepted this madness. "All right, I want to keep getting to know you."
