Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 83 Attempted Seduction

"Lothur, what happened back there? Why didn't you try to get your item back?" Elke asked her companion just after they left that area.

Hearing the doubt of the beautiful redhead next to him, Lothur felt his head boiling over the problem from earlier, but he did not let his feelings get in his way. He said to her. "Someone in that place wanted to get in my way, so it made no difference if I tried to get my item back. They wouldn't allow me."

"Anyway, in situations like this, it is better to take a step back and think of something to solve such..."

"But don't worry, I will return!"

"Oh? And what do you intend to do?" She looked him in the eye, impressed to hear that from him. "If you want, I can buy that thing to avoid any more trouble."

He smiled at that but did not accept her kindness. "Thanks for the offer, Elke, but no. I'll work it out in my own way."

"I already have something in mind, so I'll start working it out when we go on our mission."

'Whoever you are, you'll be sorry for standing in the way between me and my coins.' He remembered the feeling of beating Alric and this person's minions as his hands itched.

...

After a while, Lothur finished his business at the Morning Star Academy and was heading towards the exit of this place when suddenly a person approached him.

"Hey, handsome!"

"Hey! Don't tell me you've already forgotten me?"

"You are already behaving like this just a few days away from each other?" A woman of average beauty by the standards of this world but with perfect curves approached Lothur with a smile on her face.

Seeing this person who had tattoos on her arms and wore a short dress that showed a lot of her legs, Lothur frowned, remembering this person.

Besides Willi, there was a woman he used to chat with during their drinking or gambling. That was Erika, this woman with tanned skin, green eyes, and an ambiguous look.

Smelling the odor of alcohol from her body, Lothur observed her, concerned about this person's past due to his previous experience with Willi.

[Name: Erika]

[Cultivation: level 2]

[STR: 1.1] [COM: 2.2] [DEX: 2.5] [AGI: 2.4]

Seeing this person's status, Lothur realized there were more cultivators in the outskirts of his predecessor than such a person thought.

Like Willi, this woman had always behaved like a mortal and never demonstrated any power to Lothur.

'Did she have any relation to that fellow?' He wondered silently, finally feeling that woman touching one of his arms as if she was trying to take him to some bar, as had happened several times in the past.

She noticed the unusual silence of that man of unique attractiveness and asked. "Lothur, what's the matter with you? Did the cat eat your tongue? Come on, don't be shy with me now."

"Haven't you always wanted to be with me? Since Willi's not around, let's have some more fun today..." She licked her lips slowly, looking into his eyes with a trace of desire.

? 'It won't be bad to have some fun with you today...'

Seeing that, Lothur felt something was wrong and stopped following that woman. "Willi... Do you know where he is? I haven't seen him for days..."

"The last time I saw him, I was hit by a carriage. Do you know if he's okay? I feel like maybe he got hurt from being too close to me."

Hearing Lothur's uncertain tone, that woman laughed internally at this person's ignorance. 'Idiot!'

'Willi tried to kill you, and you still care about him?'

'Pathetic!'

'Tsk!'

'If you keep talking this nonsense, I might get all dried up...' She looked up, feeling that despite his attractiveness, Lothur did not have what it took even to make her interested.

And considering how she had the appeal to take him to a particular place later, her upcoming experience did not look promising.

"Lothur, I'm worried too." She sentimentally looked at him, forcing her voice to sound thinner, as if she were about to start crying. "I haven't seen him in days..."

"Oh, Lothur, hug me!" She began to sob.

Feeling that woman's grip, Lothur felt compelled to pull her away. Still, since his predecessor tried to please that woman like a fool in hopes of intimacy, he stood there, motionless.

'There is certainly something wrong...'

'This woman has never exhibited such behavior before, and despite her masterful acting, I have seen woman lying in a much more truthful manner.'

After a few seconds of standing in the middle of one of the sidewalks in the central part of Peters City, Erika finally removed her face from Lothur's chest and said to him. "Let's go to my place..."

"We can talk more privately there and then have some fun later..."

"Why don't we go to the Three Feathers Casino later in the evening?" She suggested this that was her goal here.

"Oh?" Lothur looked at her more seriously, not liking that woman's suggestions.

Lothur was a womanizer, but he felt nothing for women like Erika. As he looked at her, although he saw a person who had her attractiveness, all he saw was a woman of low value.

Someone who wore filthy clothes, who offered herself to him without proper approach, with her body full of strange tattoos and stinking of alcohol.

Hell, this woman could not possibly compare to Elke and Annaliese. So how could he be interested in someone like that?

To make matters worse, the earthling Lothur hated gambling. So, naturally, he despised casinos.

He particularly had no problem with people having fun in such places if they knew they would lose their money. But as for the fools who believed they stood a chance against the table, these he had no compassion for and sincerely wished for the worst.

In his opinion, certain people needed to suffer, to lose everything they had to learn that there were no free lunches in the world or such a thing as good luck.

For him, wealth was built through work and investment in real assets, the economy, good companies, organizations, or real estate. Because of this, he would never spend even a coin in a gambling house.

So, after hearing Erika's words, he felt even more contempt for her. He turned away from that woman who looked like a cat in the heat, trying to convince a male to do what should be done.

"I'll have to refuse this time, Erika." He said without showing his opinion of her. "I have a matter to settle with my wife, so I feel you will have to wait for another day."

"What?" She looked at him in surprise, finding it unbelievable that this virgin had refused to go to bed with her. 'Is he serious? He's not only giving up lying with me, but also giving up doing his favorite hobby!'

'What is happening in this world? Does he truly have a commitment?' She remained silent, her mouth open as she waited for Lothur's response.

"I'm sorry, Erika, but I'm unavailable today." He said as he moved a little further away from her, waving one of his hands as if saying goodbye.

Seeing that handsome man walking away from her, Erika felt rejected for the first time in a long time. 'Damn!' She thought about it as she considered that she had failed in her first attempt to seduce Lothur and lead him to a place of destruction.

"Tsk!"

'I'd better get back to my post...' She clenched her hands in frustration, following the way she had gone earlier.

However, as she headed for her spot, Lothur had wasted no time and began to stalk, curious to know where she would lead him.

'That woman... I feel that she and Willi are flour from the same bag.'

'If that is true, then she will probably lead me to that person's organization.' He continued to chase her tracks, deftly concealing his movements.

'Well, I'll look into who's behind her and then return.'

'We'll see. Maybe this will show me why there are people after a good-for-nothing...'

After that, several minutes passed, and Lothur reached one of the suburbs of Peters City, where Erika entered one of the many old buildings in that area.
