Mixed Blessing System

Later that evening, Lothur had met with his wife and Elke at his estate and spent several minutes talking with the two.

He told them about where he had been for the past few days and the opportunities he had received at the Immortals Well.

While talking about these opportunities, Lothur did not miss the chance to hand them some of the resources he had acquired during his days in the Three Great Lakes Region.

He gave the Hidden Duscle to Annaliese since this medicine had attributes that would make more of a difference to her than to Viktoria. As for this woman, Lothur gave his wife the Winter\'s Breath since this medicine could give the one who consumed it the chance to awaken their bloodline or Physique.

Since Viktoria would make better use of it, being naturally more talented than Annaliese, Lothur gave such a thing to her in anticipation of increasing his family\'s earning margin.

He also gave Annaliese a sword of quasi-Gold classification, capable of creating spiritual blows compatible with the water element.

As for Elke, Lothur promised her to produce a Gold-grade artifact from the quasi-Gold-grade beast bone he had obtained.

Such an item was of no use to Elke as it stood, but it was precious, even more so if it was used to produce something.

They would have to find a good 3-star spiritual professional to do this, something quite difficult to get in Linn Province since the only Transcendents in this place had no professions.

But even if it were a complicated job, it would not be impossible for them to find someone capable in the empire\'s capital. So Elke was not disappointed to receive that instead of resources already useful to her.

Besides, she was already quite happy that Lothur had returned well so that in itself was already perfect for her.

With that, after eating together and talking for almost 2 hours, Annaliese and Viktoria went to different training areas of that house to absorb those medicines.

Meanwhile, Lothur took Elke to one of the rooms in the house and spent almost an hour with her in bed, caring for his woman\'s physical needs.

...

[Name: Elke Becker]

[Soul Cultivation: level 9 -> 10]

[Body Cultivation: level 9 -> 10]

[STR: 32.9]

[CON: 105.9 -> 118.7]

[DEX: 33.9]

[AGI: 34.2]

[SOU: ??]

After finishing his fun with Elke, Lothur faced a situation similar to the one he had had with her several weeks ago.

Soon after receiving the benefit of having sex with Lothur, Elke felt the classic symptoms of a breakthrough and ran to the bathroom so she would not have to do so in his presence.

Lothur was not disgusted with his woman and congratulated her since she could now begin the cultivation of her Soul attribute with the crystals he had to her.

Because this was an event of great importance to her, Elke was not as embarrassed as she was last time, feeling quite hopeful about her new journey within the 2nd stage.

As she moved forward, Lothur realized how much she had improved all at once after having sex with him and the reaction she had had at that moment.

Elke had had no problems during sex, but after such an experience, he noticed that she had experienced pain as she received the bonuses for that.

With that vision, he immediately realized that women with Constitution values much lower than Elke\'s would probably suffer and even risk death if they had sex with him.

Hence, as he watched her go through the last marrow cleansing that soul cultivators went through in a long time, he thought back to his adventures with Anneke.

\'Damn!\'

\'Anneke is only at level 7. Her Constitution should be around 22 points right now. If I do something with her as I am, it would probably give her a Constitution advance of over 80%...\'

\'That would kill her!\' He thought about it, noting that he had gotten so strong that he had already lost his freedom to do as he pleased without realizing it.

He was not sure of his theory, but if he tried it, he would see that he could indeed kill or even cripple someone like Anneke.

Up to just over a 50% bonus at one time, the woman receiving Lothur\'s \'blessing\' would suffer but would not be at too high a risk of permanent damage. But after that, the odds would be against that person. If she were lucky, she would have her cultivation crippled by such a significant one-time advance.

With that thought in mind, he could not help but regret it, noting that he would have to give up his adventures with Anneke and any women much weaker than him.

\'I don\'t know if that\'s a good or bad thing.\' He thought. \'If I hadn\'t \'ventured out\' while still weak, I would run the risk of not being able to have sex with anyone else later in my life!\'

Gulp!

\'That would be terrible!\' He felt sweat dripping from his neck as Ice watched him through the gaps in the curtain covering the window of his room.

\'What happened? Did something scare him?\' This white fox wondered. \'Did that weak human threaten him somehow? But how is that possible? She is so frail and weak...\'

\'Hmm, maybe women are terrible like that?\'

As this beast tried to understand human interactions, suddenly, its ears twitched, and it felt the hairs on its tail twitching.

It then put these thoughts aside and turned around to see what it was.

Immediately after it did so, someone knocked on the gate of Lothur\'s house.

Pa! Pa!

\'Hmmm? An enemy?\'

\'Tsk! Very well, human. I\'ll protect you while you breed!\'

Ice then jumped over the Ritter estate\'s front wall, flying over that residence\'s entrance gate, until it landed on the side of the street, where three carriages were already parked in front of Lothur\'s house.

Several cultivators between levels 13 and 15 were crowded near the entrance gate of Lothur\'s residence, all well-dressed and with smiles on their faces.

When it saw this, Ice thought the worst, imagining that someone like Lothur must have many enemies, and these people were probably there to deal with him.

"Au! Au!" It raised its head and howled twice, making the weaker civilians passing nearby fear due to this beast\'s powerful intent.

"Oh? A 5th Revolution beast?" Gomeric commented upon seeing this creature, stepping forward from his wife to take a look at this creature.

"Is that the beast of Lothur?"

"Magnificent!"

"A gorgeous specimen!" Coroner Klossner, who had just arrived there, said this as he got down from his carriage.

Then one of the subordinates of a local bourgeois family, who did not know Lothur well enough, stepped forward and asked his leader.

"Master, do you want me to immobilize this beast?"
