Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 420 Severe Reactions Approaching 2



As Lothur\'s enemy families began to plan to act vigorously against him, the allies also discovered relevant things about that day!

Not only enemies were watching Lothur. Some of his allies, as in the case of the Becker family, were watching over this young man to help him in case of need.

Because of this, news of the invasion of Lothur\'s property soon reached the ears of the leaders of organizations friendly to this fellow.

These powers had many interests concerning Lothur\'s creations, so they were very concerned about young Ritter\'s welfare!

...

On the Becker estate...

Gomeric had received the recent news with a mixture of concern and happiness.

He was pleased that Lothur was strong enough to contain such troublesome threats with as much skill as one of the observers had described him. But with power came greater responsibilities, which naturally carried the danger that worried this man.

"Those local families didn\'t let that go unnoticed." He commented to his wife and his right-hand man, Heinz. "Lothur is becoming stronger and more influential. If they wait to act, it will be like waiting for their destruction."

Heinz nodded affirmatively. "By now, the local powers should be preparing for vigorous action, patriarch."

Hilda worried, considering her family\'s business affairs and Elke and Lothur\'s situation. "We can\'t let that happen. Lothur is too important for the future of our family!"

"If these bastards do something against him, the family may not recover from that in the future!"

Gomeric agreed with Hilda and ordered. "Heinz, put one of the elders to follow Lothur\'s steps and help him if he needs to escape."

...

At the same time, coroner Klossner had a severe expression as he stood in front of the Linn Province Duke, talking about young Ritter.

He had already discovered what had happened today and was worried about what the Duke might do. So he had come to this place to talk to Chris Waldeaur about Lothur, maybe find a way to end the disagreements between the two.

"Duke, we\'ve known each other for a long time, right? Have I ever tried to harm you?" August asked such a Transcendent.

Chris shook his head negatively. "No, you never did." He said, trying to understand what this old acquaintance and a fellow worker was getting at.

The Duke of the province was an office of the nobility, which gave the right to the most significant portion of land in the province and therefore control over local laws and forces. But there were envoys from the imperial family to act in all spheres of power of this state around its territory.

Usually, they dealt with more bureaucratic matters, with the management of important cities and the execution of some services, such as investigating the causes of local deaths.

August and Chris were co-workers because they served the same province, only in different spheres of responsibility. But they were not boss and subordinate, much less could it be said that the status of one was much higher than the other.

Chris definitely held a higher position, given his family and cultivation. But considering only his duties within the province, he would receive almost the same respect as the head of the Medical Forensic Group of the local Coroner\'s Office.

If the emperor received them simultaneously, he would give both individuals the same treatment and importance!

Because of this, the two individuals treated each other almost equally, except for using the appropriate terms and following the rule of the etiquette of the empire.

August then said. "Then listen to me one more time. I know that the Waldeaur family is in the faction of the third prince. But try not to get involved with Lothur Ritter. I fear those against this young man will not have a promising future."

Hearing this from his old acquaintance, this person he even considered a friend, the Duke opened his mouth and frowned. "What? Are you serious?" He stood up from his seat and began to feel irritated.

"Do you know how many defeats my family has had by him? Are you asking me, the stronger side, to give up? Are you crazy, August?"

Coroner Klossner fully understood how absurd his request was, but with his knowledge, he could not help but insist. "Chris, Lothur is a genius. I don\'t speak of cultivation since that is already somewhat obvious, considering the Province Conference that just ended."

"His genius is in other areas."

"He is an incredible inventor who can revolutionize the entire empire!"

Chris already knew this since his men had reported the odd item that even made local patriarchs go to Lothur\'s house early in the morning just to get a little taste of it.

But he did not think it could be more important than a joke or a hobby. To him, the relevance of that item would not be significant enough to revolutionize anything.

So he could not help but doubt the words of his old friend and make a strange expression.

August understood well what this man must have been thinking and said. "Do not doubt what I am telling you. I did not give millions of silver coins to Lothur out of kindness, nor will I help him out of pity. I did it because he may become as relevant as some of the state\'s leaders in the future."

"So unless you wanted to insist on a disagreement with someone who may alone have more influence than the third prince, I advise you to stop, my friend." August stood up, preparing to leave after those significant words.

Chris was silent upon hearing that, knowing that it was a big mistake to think that the public members of the royalty were the most influential people in the empire.

No, the most influential and powerful people in this state were individuals that very few people knew, great cultivators and magnates. These were the backers of the imperial family, people who did not have the imperial forces but, with their resources, could easily form an army capable of brutalizing the empire.

Some of these people had so much power that even the princes had to be respectful in front of those people. Due to his high cultivation, only the emperor could be at the same table as them!

As he pondered over his friend\'s words about the possibility of Lothur becoming one of these people, the Duke could not help but be worried.

\'How can that be? Lothur is the son of an outlaw. He is a descendant of...\' He considered how strange it would be if someone with young Ritter\'s identity became as influential as August believed possible.

With that, this man, who was already furious that his allies had lost several essential cultivators to Lothur on this day today, could not help but fall into reflection.

He knew that his allies were probably planning a massive attack against Lothur at the moment. But without being sure whether coroner Klossner had gone mad, he would not act!

\'Better I observe the situation for a little longer...\'
