Mixed Blessing System

When he first came to this city to contact Lothur, this envoy of Daemon’s father had faced the envoy of that outlaw at the Ritter estate.

On that occasion, someone who had ignored the effects of the clash of auras of two Transcendents had appeared on Lothur’s property and frightened the two experts.

Due to the memory of that powerful being, this individual soon suspected that the changes regarding Lothur’s observers were connected to such a person.

After all, what else could justify the presence of people of a similar level to that of local patriarchs watching over Lothur? How could this young man be so relevant?

Lothur was not that strong and did not have the political influence to cause such a reaction!

So this man from the capital of the empire hesitated to act on his target at the moment, deciding first to observe this young man’s situation before moving.

‘I was away for a few days. So I’ll observe his situation for a while to ensure there’s nothing dangerous for me before I act!’ He made up his mind as he watched Lothur enter the house where Viktoria was cultivating in waiting for her husband.

…

Two days later…

After Lothur asked Gomeric for this man’s approval of his and Elke’s engagement, this young man had two quiet days in this city.

He trained with his women and had fun but he also worked hard at his responsibilities. For example, this silver-haired young man delivered some items to the tailor store that had taught him such a profession, which he was to do at the beginning of this new month.

On the other hand, Lothur participated in the work concerning the development of the Ritter Motor Company. He worked alongside some of his partners to arrive at an initial investment figure that each shareholder would have to make for this company to get off the ground.

With this, this afternoon, he was already on his way to meet with his partners’ representatives to communicate the amount that each party would have to contribute to the company.

‘I have finished teaching the Becker family tailors how to produce my glove. So from now on, I will have more time to work on my vehicles…’ Lothur pondered this as he headed to the meeting place he had arranged with his partners.

Lothur had arranged to meet his partners’ representatives at Frederik’s store, which, although not large and luxurious, was private enough for them to discuss business.

The Ritter Motor Company did not yet have a headquarters, as this company needed the initial investment to gain such a thing. Thus, the meeting in question would be in a simpler place until the first factory was built.

Lothur pondered these questions, eager to begin work on his vehicles alongside the individuals who would soon be helping him.

And seeing Frederik’s store not far from him, Lothur spied his status once more before entering that place.

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

[Physique: what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger]

[Bloodline: Life Devourer]

[Cultivation: level 11] 𝒃𝙚𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍．𝙘𝒐𝙢

[STR: 50.9 -> 52.7]

[CON: 203.9 -> 204.4]

[DEX: 45.2 -> 47]

[AGI: 61.1 -> 62.9]

[INT: 93.4]

[PER: 106.6]

[WIL: 86 -> 86.6]

[EVF: 1,143]

He was pleased to see his status, liking his progress, but even happier that his women were advancing rapidly because of this.

After these quiet days, Elke and Annaliese advanced again, the first reaching level 9 and the latter advancing to the 2nd stage.

Because of this, Annaliese had begun to absorb the spiritual crystals that her man had given her while Elke was preparing to do the same very soon.

Lothur was also planning to use his professional skills to help his women in the coming days, so his family’s strength would continue to increase rapidly.

‘Things are going as they should… We will continue to evolve until Friday, and then I will leave with Elke for the group mission that the academy will pass on to us.’ He pondered this in silence. ‘At this rate, we’ll make it to the competition for the Secret Realm spots as the favorites in each sector!’

With that positive thought, Lothur entered Frederik’s store, promptly running into several youths he had not yet met.

His partners in the Ritter Motor Company were important people, extremely busy individuals. So almost none of them attended, having instead sent people they trusted.

Among these were some individuals from Sector 6 of the academy, children, or close relatives of Lothur’s partners.

There was Viktoria, representing the Frost family, Elke from House Becker, Anneke and the young lady from the Koch family, and several other members of the local nobility or bourgeoisie.

“It looks like everyone is already here.” He looked from one side of that place to the other and saw that Frederik was in the back of the store, working on something.

He closed Frederik’s store and soon began talking business with his partners’ representatives. “Well, let’s not waste too much time. The Ritter Motor Company needs 80 million bronze coins to start its operations. So I hope each of you has brought enough coins. I want to complete some business after I leave here, then I need those coins.”

“What? 80 million?” Jacob, who was there representing his father, questioned in surprise, finding the initial amount Lothur wanted incredible.

Even Viktoria was impressed by the figure Lothur quoted since that equaled more than 30% of what he had received days ago for the company’s auction.

“Isn’t that a lot?” Miss Koch asked in doubt.

Lothur then explained. “No. To buy and develop the place where we will develop our first cars, we will have to spend 18 million bronze coins.”

“In addition, we will have to hire a few dozen professionals after that place is built to develop our cars for some time before we can profit. That will cost around 5 million.”

“The most expensive will be the materials for both the cars and the production of the parts for the cars. That will cost around 30 million bronze coins.” He said, mentioning the amounts needed for those most needed parts.

“What about the rest?” A representative of the local bourgeoisie and coroner Klossner asked in doubt.

Lothur looked at such a person and said. “The remainder will go toward the formation of the companies supporting the Ritter Motor Company.”

Lothur and his partners had agreed to leave it up to those of their partners who did not get slices of that vehicle manufacturer to develop these side businesses. But even if others were to lead these initiatives, the Ritter Motor Company would be responsible for 50% of the investments of these powers.

This Lothur company would profit by selling cars, teaching people to drive, creating transportation companies, etc. In short, this company was a partner in these other smaller businesses that would teach and do transportation services in the future.

Therefore, even if other people were to lead these businesses, the Ritter Motor Company would need to invest in them.

And for that would go the missing difference to complete Lothur’s initial investment request!
