Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 124 Challenge

"... And end up falling in love with him. I can teach you a few things, but I recommend you just ignore him. Doing that may not be what you want at the moment, but at least you won't accidentally fall in love with him."

"Me falling in love with him? Are you underestimating me or overestimating him?" Viktoria asked in an irritated tone, looking at her friend with a bit of hostility in her eyes.

"You think so?" Karen said in a provocative tone. "This irritation of yours towards him is already a troubling sign. If he doesn't matter to you, why bother if he's doing what he wants and not listening to you?"

"Are you suggesting that I have feelings for that scumbag? Impossible!" She stood up from where she was and waved one of her hands in the air. "Impossible! Are you trying to make me angry by saying these things, Karen?"

"No, I'm just saying..."

"In any case, are you sure you want to go ahead with your plans? I'll repeat it. I think you should just ignore him."

Viktoria shook her head negatively and said. "I'm not as easily persuaded as you say, so thanks, but no. I'm going to make that scumbag pay for the anger he's been putting me through!"

Karen then sighed in defeat before beginning to counsel her friend. "All right, then. Then don't say I didn't warn you... Anyway, you have two options if you want to make him bootlick for you."

"Which ones?" She asked.

Karen then explained. "You must choose a stick or a carrot."

"Uh?"

"Either you will act aggressively with him in your approach, or you will use incentives to get him to eat into your hands."

"Oh?"

"Men are easy to manipulate. They are extremely visual and easily controlled by their desires. So, it won't be hard for you to get him to notice you more than he should and start desiring to be with you. That will be the basics that will turn him into a fool who will do anything you want..."

"That... But doesn't he already desire me? How will I do what you say?" Viktoria was used to being desired by almost every man in her surroundings, so it was hard for her to imagine Lothur as an exception.

"Haha, of course, he desires you. But not enough to be desperate and willing to do anything for you!" Karen laughed at her friend's innocence. "You must show him what he could have if he were kinder to you if he started pleasing you by behaving himself."

She looked more seriously at Viktoria and said. "Well, that's the carrot strategy. You don't have to overexpose yourself; you can slowly bring him into your control with small moves. The other option, on the other hand, is faster but is much more invasive..."

"Invasive?" Viktoria's eyebrows arched.

"Yes. The first strategy consists of a kind of covert language. The second relies on overt language. In this case, you would have to approach Lothur directly and show him something hard to ignore..." Her face turned slightly red as she said that part.

Viktoria closed her eyes as she heard that. "Karen, I'm not sure if I understand you..."

Karen then revealed. "Kiss him, give him a chance, and he'll be itching for more. From then on, you will have him under your control even if you don't let him touch your body again."

"What? Nonsense! That kind of nonsense doesn't work! Who do you think I am?" Viktoria felt irritated by her friend's bold suggestions.

"It does work..." Karen laughed. "There are many men who their wives manipulate in just that way. The relationship is initially good, but the day comes when she no longer gives what he wants."

Karen explained the truth to her friend. "Then these men start acting like desperate servants, hoping to get a little intimacy. From then on, these women lead the relationship, which also explains the later disinterest of women in their partners who behave this way."

"Sigh..."

"If you act overtly with him, you will have a better chance of getting him on your feet, as you wish. But you will have to take that bold step..."

"No! I definitely won't do that! Even if you are right, I would only reward him by letting him touch me!" Viktoria clenched her fists tightly. "I'd rather use the covert strategy!"

"Hmm, good luck," Karen said while shaking her head, fearing where her friend would get to. 'He may not have many qualities, but the main quality for a temporary crush is his forte...'

'I hope your shot doesn't backfire, Viktoria.'

...

A few hours later, Lothur had already attended one of the morning classes when he finally made his way to Anneke's room in the local dormitory.

Pa! Pa!

He knocked on her room door twice before his beautiful geopolitics teacher came to greet him. "Lothur, it seems that even though you're a shameless bastard, your words are still worth something, eh?"

Seeing the provocative smile on her face, Lothur looked at the lips of this beautiful black-haired woman but did not answer her question. Instead, he walked into that place, stopping beside her, waiting for her to close the door.

He looked at her status and saw that Anneke had recently risen to level 7 and then said. "Congratulations on reaching the 7th Transformation."

"Oh? Did you realize that?" Her eyes sharpened as she stopped before him in the small hallway entrance to her room. 'You truly are hiding your strength!'

"So? Are you prepared to tell me what your good fortune was? Or are you going to try to use some excuse not to say what you promised?" She asked, smiling provocatively.

"Anne, you are bold, huh? Wanting to uncover secrets that could end other people's lives... Aren't you afraid of getting dirty by putting your hand where it shouldn't be?" He moved closer to her, causing her to move back.

"Oh? No offense, but a fortune that makes someone useless able to cultivate is not as dangerous as you think..." She faced the wall at her back.

"Hehe, so let's just say I found something that improved my talent a bit." He stopped when she put one of her arms on his right shoulder. "Is that enough to you?"

"That's vague!"

"Is it? Then how about this? If you help me find something, I'll give you one more relevant detail. Then, I'll give you something else if you want it to..." He said as he bit his lips and looked intensely at her cherry lips.

She ignored Lothur's gesture and eased the strength in her hand holding his shoulder. "What do you want?"

"I'm after a metal leaf, about the size of a pendant from necklaces or things like that. I don't know the color of this item, but it probably has significant value to the people or organizations that have it."

"Oh?" Her mind fell into a state of reflection, trying to think what this leaf Lothur was talking about might be.

Meanwhile, she got careless, and Lothur finally got close enough to her to bring her into his arms. "Anne, if you continue to be so interested in me, I will think you're in love..."

Gulp!

She turned to him, putting her thoughts aside. But, unfortunately, in doing so, she made the mistake of ignoring that his face was only inches away from hers.

In that instant, she felt her lips touch something soft, moist, and warm, and her whole body went weak with the sensation of this unconscious action.

"Anne! I didn't think you would steal a kiss from me like that!" Lothur laughed as he saw the woman freeze there.

"Your bas..." She was saying, ready to attack Lothur, but this young man skillfully deflected her blow by hugging her.

"That blow just now was a little too decisive, no? You don't even know my strength level... What if it hurt me?" He asked as he held her against the wall.

"Tsk!"

"It was meant to hurt you! How dare you kiss me?"

"Oh? I'm sure it was you who did that, Anne..." He laughed before saying in her ear. "If I had kissed you, you wouldn't be complaining now, but rather in my arms, lost in the sensation of being kissed by someone who knows what he's doing."

"Arrogant!"

"What can a brat like you do that? I'm sure the First Miss Frost never gave you the pleasure of kissing her! As for that brat, Elke, what can she know?" She turned red as she looked at him.

"That sounds like a challenge... Well, I accept it!" He made his way toward her lips, shocking her with his boldness in trying to kiss his teacher.

'Scoundrel!' But in this situation where they were so close, she had no time to reject him as his lips touched hers, sending shocks throughout her body.

As she felt Lothur's tongue entering her mouth, Anneke could not ignore her primal feminine instincts. She liked his looks, and his every attitude provoked her in a remarkably new way to her. So, she soon did what her genes were telling her to do.

"Mmmmm~"
