Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 58 Strolling Through Peters City



A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Friday finally arrived.

After the first training with Annaliese, Lothur realized the importance of fighting human opponents and not just training his techniques alone or on objects.

That had also helped him understand a little more about his techniques, opening up a new path for him to continue pursuing his dreams in this world.

However, this was only the most obvious thing he had realized after that first training. After that, the next day, Lothur realized what the effects of such a thing were on his body.

To his surprise, he had actually gained more attribute points by training with Annaliese. However, he had the feeling that such a thing was like the results of his exercises, unlike the progress he had made after the times he had recovered from beatings.

Lothur still was unsure if this meant that he would need to be beaten to near death to receive his physique’s benefits as Annaliese had not hurt him in their training. But now, he knew that his physique would not be stimulated that way.

His body, yes, could get stronger with this kind of training. Still, the speed of advancement was inferior by a large margin to that which he experienced post-regenerations.

In any case, Lothur was satisfied with this since, as much as he had not advanced significantly during these training days, he felt he could master his techniques more quickly this way.

Therefore, during the intervening period, this man went to Annaliese’s residence every day at night to train with her.

On the other hand, Lothur was not absent from the Morning Star Academy these days and continued studying in the library and attending the Spiritual Language and Geopolitics classes.

He had also had some fun with Elke in the room she had obtained, but nothing more than he had ever done had happened with them.

Other than that, aside from the offensive comments that Lothur heard on the Frost family estate every day, as well as the rumors at the academy that he had angered Merten Baier, he had spent these days tranquility.

After reading his last book of the day in the Sector-1 library, Lothur hurried quickly towards the academy exit, where he and Annaliese had arranged to meet.

Soon they would be going to an auction together, and that woman did not want to be around someone who did not know how to dress. So, they had arranged to go to a local tailor shop to choose something for Lothur.

And knowing how interested that woman was in this little ‘outing’ with him, Lothur did not take long to reach his destination as he saw his status once again.

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

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

[Bloodline: ****]

[Cultivation: level 3]

[STR: 6.4] [CON: 7.0] [DEX: 5.8] [AGI: 7.7]

[INT: 30] [PER: 11.5] [WIL: 42] .

Seeing this, he smiled in satisfaction, feeling that his continued progress was satisfactory, although not as fast as he would have liked.

On the other hand, as he looked at his Perception attribute, he could not help but think about what he had accomplished the night before.

‘It seems that the more I use my sensory abilities, the more I can boost this attribute…’

He then closed his eyes as he waited for Annaliese at the academy entrance, in a green area with several students coming and going. He then thought about his biggest problem. ‘I just don’t know how to increase my Intelligence…’

‘Why is it so hard to do that?’

But as he did that for a few moments, he finally heard his sister-in-law’s sweet voice coming from behind him, making him open his eyes and see that entrance again.

“Lothur, are you ready?” She asked with a smile on her face as she moved gracefully, dressed in a black and white outfit, different from the academy uniform Lothur had on his body.

Looking at her for a moment, Lothur was surprised to see her this way, but he did not disapprove. “Yes, shall we?”

“Hmmm.” She nodded at him and indicated for them to follow on foot, walking side by side with him.

“Anna, you look terrific out of your uniform…” He whispered to her, looking intensely into her eyes.

“Really? Well, then you’ll be even more impressed with the dress I bought for the auction.” She said, happy to be complimented.

After a brief silence, she watched his handsome face from the side and said confidently. “But don’t worry. In a little while, we will find something that will look as good or even better on you.”

“Maybe you’ll even catch the attention of all the people at the auction…”

After that, the two laughed as they walked towards the store of the most renowned tailor in this city, which was not far from there.

As they entered a high-end establishment in the central part of Peters City, Lothur and Annaliese immediately found themselves in a relatively empty place, which did not look like a store at all.

There were no clothes available. In fact, there was nothing that reminded them that they were in a tailor shop. Instead, the place looked like a small hotel reception, with refined decorations, a few places to sit, and several side doors.

At the front desk, only two middle-aged women were working. Still, each was dressed like a noblewoman, with different clothes that highlighted their unique beauty.

Besides Lothur and Annaliese, only two other customers were there at the moment, one of them a young man younger than Lothur and the other a grown woman with blond hair.

The young man was sitting in one of the waiting seats of the place, while the woman was being attended to by one of the employees there.

Seeing this, Annaliese took one of Lothur’s hands and led him to that free attendant.

“Hello, I would like to order a formal outfit for him.” She said to that middle-aged woman.

Upon hearing that, such an attendant looked at Lothur in silence for a few moments, seeing how physically well he looked and admiring his incomparable looks.

“It will be easy to find something for someone like him.” She laughed softly, looking at Annaliese with an envious expression on her face.

At the same time, that blonde woman near them laughed upon hearing that but did not disagree. ‘Ah, that girl is lucky to get a man of this quality…’ So, she thought as she watched Lothur, thinking that these two were a couple.

Lothur ignored the woman’s remark and approached the bench in front of him, inquisitive about how this place operated and whether or not the clothes produced there were unique.

“Well, before we take his measurements, let’s decide what the materials of his clothes will be and some details…” That woman grew more serious after seeing the blushing Annaliese getting agitated, going straight to business.

She then opened a large book already on that bench, which had no ordinary sheets but several different types of fabrics.

Upon seeing this, Lothur felt curious about it and promptly used the fingers of one of his hands to feel those materials.

[Three-Eyed Serpent Leather] [Rank: Bronze]

[Feature: increases the user’s defenses by 15%. Increases the user’s resistance to poisons while used.]

[Spiritual Cotton] [Classification: Iron]

[Feature: maintains the user’s body temperature when in an area with spiritual stability.]

Upon reading some of the system’s warnings, Lothur opened his mouth in surprise, realizing that this place was not ordinary!

Clothes produced by some of those materials could become authentic cloth armor!
