Mixed Blessing System

When Annaliese was declared the winner of this second round, one more point was added to the Frost family group.

[... 13th Frost Family: 11...]

Upon seeing this, she immediately returned to Lothur and Viktoria\'s side, pleased with her result and looking forward to the next matches of the day.

She was confident at least making it to the second day of trials for her four tests, so she was in good spirits for this first day of the Province Conference.

As she arrived next to her brother-in-law and sister, she immediately received congratulations from them before asking. "What are we going to do now? We have over two hours until the afternoon tests."

Viktoria then said. "I have to make some preparations, and then I will take my tests. So, I won\'t see you until later during our team combat."

"Is that so? See you then..." Lothur quickly kissed his wife before watching her leave, being alone with Annaliese.

"What are we going to do now, Lothur?" She asked as she looked at him meaningfully.

"I guess you want to tire me out before my competition, huh?" Lothur smiled before quickly leaving the area next to her, heading to a place where they would have privacy.

They were in the middle of a competition, but doing what they had in mind would help them go further in this place where so many enemies wanted to take them down.

At the same time, with Viktoria away from them, this was the only chance they might have for the rest of the day, so neither of them wanted to waste the opportunity.

\'After my afternoon exam, I will train a bit and start my studies concerning medicine...\' He thought about how useful it would be to have the knowledge needed to prevent an unwanted pregnancy.

...

After finishing their things, Lothur and Annaliese dressed quickly, and this young man took the opportunity to check the status of his sister-in-law.

[Name: Annaliese Frost]

[Cultivation: level 8]

[STR: 33.6 -> 33.8]

[CON: 40.2 -> 41.9]

[DEX: 36.3 -> 36.5]

[AGI: 34.6 -> 34.8]

As he looked at Annaliese\'s physical attributes, Lothur had in mind the need for him to raise his own attributes. He knew he was an 8th Transformation cultivator, but that was due to his Constitution only.

If he were to compare himself to others in Agility, Strength, and Dexterity, his correct level would be 7th Transformation!

Hence, he had in mind the need to evolve such characteristics, which he could only achieve by training.

"Anna, will it hinder you if we fight a little in the afternoon?" He asked as she looked at him with a silly expression, thinking he was just now watching her pretty body.

"Do you want to train in the middle of the competition?" She asked upon hearing that, "I don\'t know if it will work. I don\'t recover as fast as you, and I have a test before your tailoring competition."

"Then I have to get someone else to help me..." He said in a low voice, trying to think of someone capable. "Anyway, let\'s get back to the Coliseum."

"I will test my poison master characteristics in a few moments!" He smiled at Annaliese as he showed one of his arms for her to take while thinking about what such a challenge would be like.

Since it was a test for poison masters, Lothur imagined that he would have to remain under the effects of the poisonous substances created by the opponents he would face. So he already imagined how positive this would be for him.

\'Maybe I can raise my resistance to poisons to Bronze grade after today...\' He smiled as he walked alongside Annaliese through the streets near the Coliseum.

...

After a few moments, Lothur and Annaliese arrived at the 3rd competition platform in the Coliseum, where they soon saw who he would be playing against in the first match.

But before Lothur even questioned his sister-in-law about who that person was, Rebecca shouted his name as she walked toward him.

"Lothur!"

Immediately Lothur looked back and saw that beautiful green-haired woman coming close to him and Annaliese, giving him a pleasant surprise. "Becca, what are you doing here?" He asked.

"I came to see you, of course." She said, ignoring the beautiful brown-haired woman at Lothur\'s side.

Rebecca was a poison master, but she was not part of a noble family to compete in this competition. In this case, she was only there to accompany Lothur\'s competition because of her mistress\' order.

Annaliese frowned as she associated the name with the image in front of her, drawing Lothur a little away from this woman of dubious fame. "What do you want with my brother-in-law?" She seriously asked.

Rebecca then curiously looked at Annaliese, sensing that this could not be an ordinary sister-in-law. "Not as much as you, I\'d say..." She joked, sensing a delightful smell coming from Annaliese.

Poison masters had senses far beyond the normal, so it was much easier for Rebecca to identify some signs than for Viktoria.

So, she naturally smelled what was in Annaliese\'s womb!

"You!" Annaliese did not like this person\'s insinuation and almost slapped her.

But Lothur stopped her from doing so, grabbing both her wrist and one of Rebecca\'s. "Anna, don\'t be like that. Becca is my colleague, and she is not as dangerous as you think."

Rebecca looked at Lothur\'s hand holding her left wrist and saw the 1-star poison master mark on that wrist of his. "You\'ve already taken the test, huh?"

"Hmmm." He turned to her and nodded after Annaliese calmed down a bit. "But it won\'t take long for me to take the test for 2-star poison master. I just need to get my hands on some books and resources, and I\'ll do that in less than a month."

"Oh?" Her eyes sparkled in interest, with various thoughts only she knew going through her mind.

Annaliese did not like the look of such a person, but since her brother-in-law was a fool who followed every skirt-tail, she knew he had not noticed anything.

"Lothur, I think you shouldn\'t approach her. You can\'t have an ordinary relationship with this woman. She has had many partners and is not good for you." Annaliese said in one of his ears, but Rebecca heard all that.

"What did you say?" Rebecca took a step forward, not liking these offensive words coming from someone she had barely met.

Lothur was shocked by Annaliese\'s sudden words, his mouth hanging open a little, given the shock of both hearing such information and seeing his sister-in-law acting that way. "What?" He asked without realizing it.

But then Rebecca looked at her and said. "I don\'t know where you got that from, brat. But I can assure you that, unlike you, I am still a virgin."

"Impossible!" Annaliese stated, red with embarrassment at having her secret revealed so casually.

Lucky for her, there was no one else paying attention to them...

"The rumors about you..." She was about to say, but Rebecca cut her off.

"Humph!"

"Rumors are rumors. Don\'t talk about me as if you know me!"
