Mixed Blessing System

After almost half a day of walking, Lothur and Elke arrived near a lake.

They had felt the previous phenomena several times during the period they spent reaching that area, more and more feeling the previous phenomena stronger.

Because of this, they knew they were getting closer to their target and were not worried that it had taken them so long only to walk less than 30 kilometers from their starting point.

They did not know where they were going, so it was necessary to travel their way at low speed, from time to time stopping to wait for further signs.

In any case, due to the intensity of the last pulse and earth tremors, Lothur was sure that he and Elke had already traveled more than halfway to the point of interest.

Since they still had the next day to continue, both were relaxed about completing this mission in time. Because of this, they had decided to stop to rest and eat beside the lake.

...

"Wow! This place is beautiful!" Elke commented as she stopped in front of Lothur, observing the large lake ahead from atop a small 20-meter-high peak nearby.

Lothur agreed as he saw that area. "Let's get something to eat and then take a bath. What do you think?"

She smiled and licked her lips. "You want something special after you eat my food, huh?"

Lothur then used his two hands on her waist and said something in one of Elke's ears that made her blush and swallowed her saliva.

"Do you like that?" She asked.

"Yes, I appreciate women who can do that for me, Elke." He winked at her.

"Good! You don't know this yet, but I'm actually an excellent cook! I'm sure you'll love eating my food." She chuckled, pleased that her parents had prepared her to become a wife capable of handling all aspects of married life with her husband.

"Then I guess I'll have two meals soon..." He licked his lips before picking up the redhead in front of him and running with her in his arms.

As she giggled in happiness along with Lothur, Elke could not help but think about Annaliese, considering she had gained another point ahead of that woman.

'Hehe, I doubt someone as talented as her would focus her time on learning cooking! So now I will take care of Lothur's wishes and make him fall in love with my spice...' She laughed, even more, thinking about the double meaning of her thoughts.

After a few moments, the two sat down on a picnic towel that Elke had brought, soon beginning to eat the meal she had prepared.

"Hmmm, you do cook well!" Lothur said as he savored a sandwich, looking at the food in front of him with interest. 'It's even tastier than the dishes prepared by Viktoria's cook!'

'This world is amazing. The women are so beautiful, yet all kinds of tasty food can be prepared even by young nobles...'

"Hehe, that's nothing," Elke said, satisfied. "My mother made me learn the profession of spiritual cooks for the sake of my future family. Because I've been studying it since I was five, I've managed to become a 1-star cook even though I'm not very talented."

"Oh? Then I will thank your mother later." Lothur smiled.

"Hmmm," She did not bother with that, happy that her efforts had paid off. "But don't think that's my limit! Now that I'm improving my strength on account of our things..." She blushed. "I'll work my way up to 2-star!"

"Excellent, Elke! I'll be happy to test your dishes in the future."

After getting to know his partner a little more, Lothur and Elke finished eating and took off their clothes, heading toward that lake.

In the blink of an eye, they were swimming around and smiling, playing with each other.

...

While the happy couple was enjoying themselves in the lake in question, four people, two young men and two men who looked to be in their 30s or 40s were watching the area from one of the banks of the lake.

"So, these two truly came to have a romantic date, huh?" Harry clenched his fists as he saw Lothur swimming around Elke.

"What shall we do, young master?" One of the two men with hair on his face questioned in doubt.

Before Harry could say anything, his lackey spoke. "Young master, I have an idea..."

After hearing that fellow's idea, Harry laughed in satisfaction, feeling that it would be great to humiliate Lothur in front of Elke.

"Hehe, depending on this woman's personality, I might even have some fun after I get rid of him..." Harry mischievously licked his lips as he watched Elke from afar.

"Let's wait for one of them to come out of the water before we act!"

"OK!"

...

When Lothur was still in the water and Elke was walking to one of the banks of the lake, the four individuals appeared near the clothes of the two.

As soon as they realized that Elke was getting out of the water, they began to smile in anticipation of seeing the young, naked body of that redheaded.

Unfortunately, Elke only realized that there were people there when half of her body was already out of the water.

"Ahhh!" She shouted in surprise as she raised her arms toward her breasts, covering Lothur's favorite twins.

As soon as Elke screamed, Lothur looked in her direction and quickly swam to that area, seeing that four people were lustfully staring at his woman.

"Did you guys see something?" Lothur asked in a cold tone as he looked at how his partner was facing away from those people with an embarrassed expression on her face.

"So what if we saw it? We hope to see a lot more!" Harry's young lackey shouted in a confident tone.

They were four cultivators, two at the 3rd and two at the 4th Transformation. So, who could stop them from doing whatever they wanted in this place?

Lothur was a mortal, and Elke was only at the 2nd Transformation...

Thus, they would do whatever they wanted, and each one there was confident that they would have a great time this afternoon!

"So that's it..." Lothur's expression became dark as he slowly walked out of the lake, ignoring whether his younger brother would be watching.

Seeing that, the four gazed open-mouthed at Lothur, explicitly focusing on the middle of his legs.

"How can that be? Is that actually possible?" One of the older ones muttered, shocked by Lothur's enviable health.

"This is an abomination! Such a man cannot be allowed to live!" Harry felt humiliated since his little friend could not even compare to a third of Lothur's.

But they were making a big mistake!

Instead of worrying about their manhoods being held in check by Lothur's weapon, they should have been worrying about the terrible look on his face.

"Lothur..." Elke said his name, already knowing what would happen.

But she was not afraid or wishing to stop her man from getting his hands dirty. To her, those people had hurt her honor, and knowing that Lothur was prepared to deal with them was meaningful to her.

That meant she was not just a diversion, but someone who mattered to him and whom he would defend from others!

So all in her heart at the moment were warm feelings towards him.

"I told you, looking at the sun too much can make you lose your eyes..." Lothur furiously said while already holding his ax in one of his hands.

"Any man who sees one of my women naked or even dares to think of them deserves death!" He clenched hard the handle of his ax, trembling with rage. "You vermins, get ready!"

Cross Walk!

After saying those words, he activated his movement technique, running into the first one in front of him while swinging his ax, ready to 'tear down trees.'

As he did so, the four individuals frowned, realizing their mistake in thinking Lothur was a mere mortal.

"Look out!" One of the two older men shouted, trying to save Harry.

Unfortunately, Lothur had attacked them with everything by surprise, and there was no time for this man to help the red-haired young man.

Puff.

At that instant, Lothur's ax horizontally sliced through the air, hitting the young minion and Harry at the height of their navels.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

The two screamed, feeling their bodies split into two parts by a single movement from Lothur.

And while the two servants were trembling with fear, sweating cold, and turning pale at seeing the intestines of those two falling to the ground, Lothur did not hesitate and used one of his daggers to hit one of them.

Swooish!

"Ahhhh!"

"Cough! Cough!"

Lothur's second target was hit in his heart, beginning to cough up blood as he fell backward to the ground.

"Damn bastard!" The remaining individual screamed in terror, ready to make his final threat.

He knew he could not fight this young man without his companions, so his only chance of survival was to use the young redhead's past!

"You bastard, you'll regret this! Do you know who the young master is?" He bellowed while holding the upper body of Harry, who had a lost look on his face, pale as a white sheet of paper.

"I don't know. I don't want to know." Lothur commented before using his ax to cut that man's neck without giving him a chance to say more.
