Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 414 Influence



After a few hours at the academy, Lothur had already noticed that he was now closely followed even within this institution.

But this time, instead of being some enemy of his, this person seemed to be watching Lothur\'s back while he went about his routine at the academy.

Lothur realized this when this individual stopped people who clearly intended to stand in his way and bother him on three different occasions.

This person acted subtly, getting in the way of these young people who wanted to get in Lothur\'s way to disrupt his time in this place. These people did not realize that this was to protect young Ritter. Still, for someone with a visual ability like his, this silver-haired fellow readily saw the pattern.

Someone was trying to clear the stones from his path so he could follow his course without unnecessary trouble!

As someone who wanted to live away from the \'spotlight\' and with less responsibility, this was great. Lothur could not help but appreciate the gesture!

\'This guy must be from the academy...\' Lothur imagined this as he walked towards Annaliese, walking side by side with Elke.

[Name: ***]

[Soul Cultivation: level 13]

[Body Cultivation: level 10]

[STR: 58.9] [CON: 60.1] [DEX: 57.5] [AGI: 58.3] [SOU: ???]

\'Not bad...\'

\'It is just a pity he only seems to be \'easing\' my way inside the academy.\' Lothur smiled. \'I wouldn\'t complain if two or three more such individuals started doing that job for me.\'

As he thought about this, Elke said. \'When will we be doing our missions again? After I started improving my skills, I\'m learning faster, so I don\'t feel it will take long for me to progress to Sector 3."

After hearing this, Lothur took his thoughts off what his allies and business partners could do for him. He looked at that little redhead next to him and said to her. "I think the middle of next month."

"At the moment, I cannot, for I have to settle the initial affairs of the Ritter Motor Company. To teach how to produce my glove for the Becker family tailors. And deliver a batch of products to the tailors\' shop that introduced me to this profession." He said as he punctuated all his current responsibilities.

But that was not the only reason he wanted to wait a little longer. In Lothur\'s opinion, Annaliese and Elke would be on relatively closer levels after this period, so they could go out on missions together.

Elke, of course, could not compare to Annaliese at this period when one considers only physical attributes. But since she was more susceptible to Lothur\'s unique ability than Viktoria\'s younger sister, this young man was aware that her advances would be faster.

With that, he also wanted more time to pass so that they could act together on future missions.

According to what Lothur had already learned at the academy, the highest-level missions could only be done by factional groups. So he naturally wanted to form a group with these women, improve side by side with them, have more time with them, and protect them.

Anyway, this was the time that Lothur thought was necessary for Elke to reach the level needed for her to at least be able to be present in the missions he intended to take in the near future.

But with his current financial power, he would not stop arming his women with defensive items to supply their weak points.

He then looked down at Elke\'s belly and smiled. \'Regardless, I can finally prevent myself from the worst nightmare of all.\'

Lothur had practically finished learning the medical theory for 1-star professionals the night before. He only needed to put such a thing into practice for a few more days to receive that classification officially.

But Lothur had reached a level in medicine that he was already able to prevent pregnancies, using some alternative means from Earth and also from this world.

Because of this, Lothur could not help but be happy that he would no longer have to worry about having an unwanted child!

\'As long as none of them got pregnant until yesterday, I\'ll be fine.\' He continued to smile as he spoke to Elke.

"... Then, when I\'m done with that, we can pick up something to do together." He finished his comments just before they met Annaliese in a garden at that academy.

After they met, the three of them made their way to a training site at that institution, where they trained together daily, with Lothur pushing the two of them.

As they made their way to the said location, Annaliese remembered something and asked. "By the way, when will you join my sister\'s faction? After everything that happened at the Province Conference, no one can stop you from joining her faction, even if other people could interfere with something."

Lothur heard this and understood that he would indeed have no problem joining his wife\'s group. Since he already had status as a student of Sector 6, he also thought it was appropriate for him to join that faction. "As long as they accept Elke, we\'ll do that later."

"Hmm, my sister will certainly make things easier for Elke." Annaliese stated, knowing that as much as there were more people with influence in Viktoria\'s faction, the young Miss Becker should not be left out with this woman\'s support.

"But I warn you in advance." Annaliese said as she remembered that her brother-in-law was very problematic regarding common sense. "The academy requires that to join a faction; any student must complete a team mission. Except that the team isn\'t necessarily the one the students would like to have..."

"Uh?" Lothur wondered at that.

Elke then remembered that she had to discuss this with Lothur and explained it to him. "The academy requires all students applying for a certain faction in a given month must join a team and go out on a mission."

"That mission must be completed without casualties, or none of those students will be allowed to join any faction for at least six months."

"Only after that would these people get a second chance."

Annaliese nodded and said. "That is the test to have a chance to join any faction. Only after it do those subdivisions within the academy have the power to make it easier or harder for you to join them."

Factions were critical to the Morning Star Academy. So this institution highly valued these subdivisions of students and participated in the process of joining new members of each of these factions.

The reason for this? To create a sense of teamwork and belonging so that new generations would have the ability to help this institution in times of difficulty.

It was good to train talented cultivators. But if these individuals left the academy and never looked back, then this institution had no merit.

Training someone who, from time to time, made themselves available to help in some way or even put their strength to help in times of difficulty did make a difference.

Influence!

That was the objective that this institution sought when using this practice!
