Mixed Blessing System



Another week passed...

While the operations of the Ritter Motor Company were going on under the command of the women of Lothur, five people appeared flying over the vicinity of that city, rapidly approaching their destination.

All five of them had eyes covered in darkness and displayed a certain negative aura that would make anyone strong enough to understand that they were not in their normal state.

But they were all quite powerful by the region's standards and retained enough of their free will to speak and behave in a less suspicious manner.

"So this is Peters City?" A level 18 woman questioned in a low voice, looking at the most amazing city she had ever seen.

This place was not fantastic to her for its level. In fact, even with the many experts attracted to the Ritter Motor Company, this place was still pretty weak. What made a good impression on that woman and all her companions were the paved and signposted streets, where strange vehicles drove around the city.

Already from far away from the city, they all noticed these vehicles, seeing how it was a city that already had at the moment almost 2.6 thousand vehicles in circulation!

"Those things... Where did those things come from?" The level 17 woman who had guided Lothur to the border with Rablus several days ago asked while looking at the place where they would land in the next few moments.

"I don't know... Let's accomplish our mission first, and then we'll see about that." The group leader, level 18, said in a low voice, seeing a place next to the city for them to land.

Usually, cities did not allow flight over their area. Since Peters City even had a level 19 Saint stationed there, the group leader preferred not to take any chances of angering the local powers.

He then led his people to land and walk the streets of this city, going in search of Viktoria Frost.

Along the way, they carefully watched the vehicles passing through the streets, in particular the minibusses, which even ordinary people entered.

But what caught their attention most was a large truck carrying an agricultural machine, which was leaving a local factory to start its journey into the countryside.

Watching the huge thing moving very slowly in the early morning, they stopped in front of a new building in the city center, which had a name that made them shiver.

'Ritter Motor Company.'

This was written on the top of the building, inside a large drawing of a vehicle similar to the model they had seen most around the city.

Immediately sensing that the name Ritter was connected to their master, they moved toward the entrance of that building.

In that place, only the low-level guards of Lothur's company were in the surroundings, watching the area as they had been doing since the opening of the place.

It was still very early, so hardly anyone was working yet, but at the sight of those five Transcendents approaching from there, the two men stepped forward and explained.

"Seniors, working hours have not yet begun. Please return later for visits or meetings." One of the two said.

But they would not stop at that, and the level 18 woman said. "We have something urgent to attend to with someone named Viktoria Frost. Please take us to her."

"Miss Frost?" The two exclaimed, wondering that Transcendents like them wouldn't seek Viktoria out casually.

It had to be something important!

One looked at the other and nodded affirmatively before stepping forward and saying. "I can take you to the Ritter residence, where Miss Frost should be. But whether she will receive you, that we cannot guarantee."

"That's good."

...

A few moments later, the group arrived in front of the old house where Lothur had lived with his wives since leaving the Frost family.

As they called for Viktoria for almost two minutes while being watched by several observers from member families at the Ritter Motor Company, the front door of this property opened.

A beautiful young redhead opened the door and looked at them strangely until she focused on the eyes of the five, noticing something similar to the eyes of the 100 people Lothur had brought back from the Imperial Prison.

Before she even asked who they were, she let them into her residence, leading them inside the house where Lothur's upgraded formations would shield a conversation from them.

"Well? Lothur sent you?" Elke asked those people as Annaliese walked over to that place, scratching her eyes.

"Elke, who is it?"

But then, as Annaliese reached the entrance room of the residence, she had her answer answered by the leader of those people.

"Ladies, our master sent us here to deliver something to Viktoria Frost. Please, can you bring her to us?"

"Viktoria? Did Lothur send you to deliver something to her? You have no message from him?" Annaliese asked.

"Our master hasn't given us any message apart from the ring we are supposed to deliver to Viktoria." The level 18 woman replied.

Elke and Annaliese looked at each other momentarily, curious about what this was all about.

But then, as they fell silent, Viktoria and Mabel came out of a training room where Mother was watching her daughter's progress.

Mabel was practically unable to use her powers, but she had been advising her daughters and Elke as well.

Even though she had not reached a great level like theirs, Mabel had spent much more time at the 3rd stage than they had.

Anyway, she was there because there was no point in her staying away from her daughters and being in the old Frost family home when Lothur was not in the city. So she had been living in this house since his departure to the Three Great Lakes Region.

Viktoria saw those five strange people and asked, having already heard part of their conversation. "What do you have for me?"

Looking at Viktoria, all those people felt that this was the woman they were looking for, the one they would deliver the valuable 'package' sent by Lothur.

"Miss Viktoria Frost, our master has sent this spatial ring to you." The strongest man among them threw a silver ring toward Lothur's wife, making her look at the thing at low speed with curiosity in her eyes.

Catching it easily, Viktoria quickly probed what was on that ring.

Immediately upon doing so, she opened her eyes in surprise, noticing two Soul Bones.

She then sensed that there was a note there and immediately summoned it.
