Mixed Blessing System

Later that day...

As he finished producing a potion and some pills, Lothur did not wait for Viktoria and Annaliese to return from what they were doing. He immediately made Mabel swallow the potion and one of the pills he had prepared to get her out of mortal danger.

Neither of these two medicines would wake her up at the moment. They would only begin the regeneration of some of her more severe injuries.

After medicating her, he wrote a letter. He left it under a pot of pills, telling Viktoria and Annaliese to give that medicine once every 6 hours to Mabel.

Then he left from there, quickly moving to the Koch family headquarters.

...

Upon arriving at the underground base of the Koch family, Lothur immediately came across dozens of people working in this area of espionage.

With the increasing number of cars driving around Peters City, more and more people were using the communication units of their vehicles to connect with their communication devices.

Because of this, the signal from Lothur\'s network reached even some farms near Peters City, and practically all the local powers communicated using this option.

He heard several messages as he walked through the place, smiling as he heard some of the voices of his allies and former enemies.

Upon arriving where the Koch patriarch was, Lothur put that aside and settled into this man\'s office.

"How are my associates behaving? Will they all come to the meeting I will host later?" He asked as he stopped manipulating the space in his surroundings and surprised that man.

After opening his mouth and almost jumping backward, the Koch patriarch took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

He said. "Yes. It seems that everyone will be coming to meet you. They have heard about what you have done next to your woman, so they are quite curious and believe that one thing is related to the other."

This man had no indication that Lothur was on the Frost estate. But considering how easily everything had been resolved, it was the only explanation.

Lothur figured it would be like this and said. "Well, I\'ll be in Peters City for a few days, but I plan to leave on some business very soon. So I want to get everything in order before then."

"Do you intend to stay away long?"

"I don\'t know. I have to investigate something, and there is a possibility that I may have to lend a hand to a group..." Lothur said, but without going into the details about what he would do. "In any case, I\'ll be weeks to months away from here. A long time considering our progress speed."

"Hmm, it is indeed quite a long time." Patriarch Koch said this when he suddenly remembered a few things. "Speaking of which, I have some updates for you."

"Oh? What\'s this about?" Lothur immediately showed interest as he relaxed over his armchair.

"After you escaped from the people who arrested you here in Peters City, the news reached the imperial family. But even before they could react, Daemon, the biggest criminal in the empire, acted in the capital, stealing a valuable item from that family." He said this with a serious expression, but which contained a discreet smile, given what he had discovered.

"When this news broke, our group identified a conversation between Miss Viktoria and her good friend, Karen."

Lothur listened to this intently, not bothered that his wife was spied on.

"They talked about that, but also about Daemon\'s relationship with you! In fact, he is your father and is His Imperial Majesty\'s eldest son!"

Upon hearing this, Lothur immediately frowned his eyebrows and couldn\'t help but open his mouth.I think you should take a look at

"What?" He exclaimed unconsciously, barely able to believe that he was actually the emperor\'s grandson.

Lothur did not know this, but considering all the troubles he had been through, he did not doubt that this was indeed true.

"It seems that you are the grandson of His Imperial Majesty." Patriarch Koch confirmed what he had just spoken.

"That..."

Lothur looked at the table between him and the Koch patriarch, reviewing various pieces of information he had in mind.

\'So the old man who wanted to kidnap me months ago was the emperor? I almost got it wrong! He was probably going to send me to the Imperial Prison at a time when I wouldn\'t be as lucky as I was!\' He thought, feeling a chill run down his spine.

But that was not the only thought going through Lothur\'s mind at the moment. \'Why didn\'t Viktoria tell me any of this? If I had known that, I would have taken some extra care.\'

He knew he had enemies in the empire\'s capital. Still, previously he judged that the motivation of these people was not as deep as preventing a possible heir from ascending or even a relative from causing shame to the great imperial family.

For powers of this magnitude, their image was critical, so eliminating a hybrid like him, the son of the biggest criminal in the empire, made a lot of sense.

If he had known this, Lothur would have taken many precautions that he didn\'t because he thought his opponents didn\'t have such strong motivations against him!

\'Viktoria... You deserve a spanking.\' He thought about what he would do to her later.

But luckily, everything had turned out well for him regarding the Leopoldine family.

So he asked. "What is this treasure about? Did you guys hear anything about it?"

"No. The imperial family kept it secret, but it must be very valuable. I heard that the strongest of the imperial family and His Imperial Majesty himself are hunting Daemon in the Three Great Lakes Region." Patriarch Koch said.

"Is that so?" Lothur\'s eyes sparkled at those words. \'Perhaps I will pass by this place before heading towards my mission.

If that treasure is valuable, I will take it for myself! That will be the price for the many troubles you all have caused me!\'

With that, he would talk with his subordinate for a few more moments, hearing about other pertinent information, but nothing as great as what he had heard first.

As it was getting dark, he left that place, heading back to his home in Peters City.

...

"Lothur, where were you?" Upon seeing her husband again, Viktoria was the first to ask, having already gotten some other medicines and minerals that he had requested earlier.

Looking at his beautiful wife, Lothur didn\'t say anything right away.

"Elke, Annaliese, I will take care of you later. Now you should go and prepare for the meeting with the local leaders. I have some matters to settle with Viktoria." He said as he headed toward his room, without giving them room to question him.

One kept glancing at the other, but it wouldn\'t take them long to obey Lothur.

So Viktoria soon went to her room...
