As soon as the ranking was updated, the tournament participants sighed, some in relief, others in disappointment.

Everyone already knew the result of this ranking hours ago. But to see such a thing at the end of the competition gave a sense of culmination, something that made many feel at this moment the changes that this tournament would bring.

Even families that should be celebrating, such as the top three in the competition, who would gain new power additions, could not rejoice.

After all, as much as the Frost family had placed 5th, the feeling everyone had now was that Lothur and this family were the real winners of the Province Conference.

When it all started, this family was in danger of losing much of their possessions and even some of their young talent. But in this instant, they had not only lost anything; they had moved up so many positions that they would win magnificent prizes.

The prizes for this competition said that the first three places would receive prizes independent of their positions in the previous tournament. But the remaining positions did not give awards. Instead, prizes or punishments could be imposed on those over three positions above or below their previous positions.

Since the Frost family had moved from the 15th position to the 5th, its prizes would be proportional to the number of positions it had advanced!

That is because each family that lost several positions in this conference would lose some benefits. But someone would need to receive these benefits since the Empire would not take these possessions...

Those were the ones who had moved up more than three positions in the current ranking.

But the division of these benefits would be done by considering how far each family advanced.

As no other organization could compare to the Frost family in this respect, they would get the most significant share to be redistributed!

So the people in the most festive mood were those in Annaliese's family, who celebrated how much they had improved after Lothur's participation.

Simon was the only one in this family who was not so happy internally. He was finding himself further away from his dream of sitting in this organization's patriarch position.

But besides the Frost family, Lothur's allies who had participated in or attended this event were also pleased since these results would make things easier for them.

Anyway, in this atmosphere of the end of celebration for some and the beginning of celebrations for others, the coliseum audience saw the awarding of the competition.

The part of the awards that belonged to the families and their rights over taxes, land, etc., would be taken care of on a more private occasion, something for the sake of the Empire's security. Thus, the only awards show to everyone were those of the competitors.

Those who had won their respective contests all day soon began to climb the combat platform, where a small awards stage had been quickly set up.

The Duke of the province, along with some influential figures in his government and Peters City, were there, ready to greet the winners and award them their prizes.

Among them were several local patriarchs and also the Klossner coroner.

So when Lothur went up to receive his three awards, he finally had the opportunity to meet the coroner Klossner, a person he intended to do business with.

This young man went up on that stage and greeted the first people whom he did not know.

But as he shook hands with one of the men, he felt this person testing him, applying too much force to the handshake.

Lothur looked into this person's face and saw that such an individual looked like someone else.

"You will pay for what you did to my son, Lothur." The Baier patriarch said in a low voice while strangely smiling so that people far from them would not know of his threat as he greeted the silver-haired young man.

Lothur understood who this person was and smiled back but said nothing, just waving and leaving for the next person there.

Aiken saw Lothur in front of him and smiled, tapping this young man on the shoulder and congratulating him. "Congratulations, Lothur. You had a splendid result and still helped the family!"

"Hmmm."

"Later, I'll talk to Viktoria so she can take you to the family vault and pick out some prizes." He winked at Lothur as if he was trying to do this without Mabel knowing.

Lothur did not refuse and went on his way, arriving in front of the province Duke.

"You are quite a figure." The Duke said while clenching one of his fists behind his back. "You have no mercy against your opponents... You live up to your lineage."

"Lineage?" Lothur's eyes narrowed.

This person could know nothing of his bloodline. So that could only mean that such an individual knew about the unknown origin of his predecessor.

However, Lothur did not invest himself in the matter since he knew he did not have enough to demand an answer from the Duke. He then said. "When you have such decisive opponents, there is no choice but to be even worse."

The Duke smiled and released this young man after handing over a small box with three pills, Lothur's prize.

Then, Lothur kept that in his spatial ring and greeted the person he wanted to meet.

"Lothur, huh? You've helped the Frost family a lot. So if you need help one day, look me up." Coroner Klossner handed a paper card to Viktoria's husband, smiling and tapping one of this person's shoulders.

"I have something I want to talk to you about." Lothur went straightforward, taking the opportunity to at least talk something to this person.

"Oh?" That man was surprised, not expecting that this young man was already after him. "What's it about?"

"I have a business opportunity for you." Lothur smiled and said in a confident tone. "I will soon present a project to the Becker family and other noble organizations in the province. I will open the opportunity for all willing to participate in it."

"We can discuss the details later if you want to know more. But I will send an invitation to several locally influential people regarding this presentation anyway, so you can just attend this event if you prefer..." He finished while several people in the surrounding area looked at him in curiosity.

Everyone there had a very acute hearing. So they could easily hear Lothur and find out he was making an offer on this place!

'What business is Lothur talking about?' Aiken frowned, not understanding whether this would be good or bad for his family, but also curious.

As for Klossner, who was surprised at Lothur's confidence and poise in proposing such a thing, he laughed and said. "Very well. I will go to such a meeting. I am sure your presentation will not be disappointing."

So Lothur greeted that person once again, quickly finishing talking to everyone there, receiving a few new threats before leaving to wait for Viktoria.

Just like that, the Province Conference came to an end!
