Mixed Blessing System

Standing between these two disagreeing women, Lothur soon thought of something to try to end their disagreement.

"Come on, Anna, don't be so hard on Becca over a rumor." He said as he looked at his sister-in-law before turning to that poison master. "Don't take what she said the wrong way. Anna is very jealous of me... Anyway, forget about it. I have something more important to talk to you about."

"What?" Rebecca stopped paying attention to the annoying Annaliese, more interested in what this junior had in mind.

Annaliese also looked at Lothur as he answered such a question. "I need a training partner after my competition. Can you help me with that? Or maybe you are not so good in terms of combat?"

"Humph!"

"I'm not good at combat? I can assure you that the opposite is true. I am an excellent fighter!" Rebecca said with great confidence.

Spiritual professionals focused much of their time on their respective fields of expertise. So, it was natural that they did not have combat skills as impressive as those of warriors on the same level.

But this was not necessarily a rule, and some non-combat spiritual professionals were excellent fighters.

Lothur smiled at Rebecca's words, which indicated that she was still irritated by Annaliese's comment. "Perfect. You will help me after I struggle for the poison masters competition."

"Fine by me. But don't you have other competitions later? Are you sure you can train with me and still have energy and focus for the other matches you have signed up for?" She asked, as she had no idea how strong Lothur was or knew about his rapid regeneration.

"Don't worry about that. I'll be fine, even if you take it hard in our match."

"Oh? Is that so?" She asked, curious to discover the combat level of this young poison master genius she had discovered. "Very well, we'll do that. But what about this competition now? What do you hope to accomplish here? Just so you know, your opponent is pretty strong."

Hearing this, Lothur recalled this competition and the competitor who would be competing with him in this first round, which he didn't know much about. "I will naturally win, whoever it is. My resistance to poisons is already pretty high, so it won't be easy for the opponent to cause me trouble."

"Hehe, you're confident, huh..." She commented before listening to Annaliese.

"Humph!"

"But of course, Lothur is confident. He's a great poison master." She said, remembering the day her brother-in-law trained such a profession after they cleaned the scorpion-infested cave in the Finn Mountains region.

Rebecca ignored Annaliese's comment and said to Lothur. "It is good that you are confident, but be careful of your opponent. I have heard that many families are acting against House Frost in this tournament, so someone in this competition for poison masters may at least try to hinder you for the rest of the competition with a more potent poison."

Rebecca did not have the same information as some of the local nobles Lothur had talked to recently, but her mistress knew about what was happening locally. So, naturally, this green-haired woman was alerting her junior due to Elisabeth.

Lothur looked at that disputation platform, where his match was about to begin. "If they try something like that, I will have to return the blow..."

He was already aware of all the risks, so he did not need to be reminded by Rebecca. Anyone who acted in a way that threatened his life, he would deal with them in an equivalent form.

As for possible reactions, it did not matter. Being kind to an enemy was like being cruel to yourself!

Thus, when he said goodbye to those two women, he climbed the combat platform determined to do everything possible to destroy the enemy's plans against him!

"Lothur Ritter, the new genius of formations in the province, hehe. It's a pleasure to dispute with someone of such rising fame..." The silver-haired young man's opponent said this with a smile on his face, something not so sincere, easy to notice.

Lothur observed this thin young man with black hair and deep dark circles under his eyes and greeted him. "Let's have a friendly match, Rudolf Sitz."

After greeting each other in the middle of that platform, the match referee signaled what they would do in this match. "Well, this is a competition for poison masters, so you must use your poison skills against each other. The one left standing at the end of the match will be the winner."

"For this, you will be able to use the selected ingredients..." He pointed to the boxes on a table in the middle of that combat platform. "You will have 3 minutes to prepare whatever it is without being disturbed by your opponent. After that time, regardless of whether one of you has finished, the other will have the right to attack you."

This test was a little different from that of formations masters. Here there was no time limit to make the poison, just a time limit to do such a thing without the chance of one of them being attacked by the opponent.

But after such a period, if one of them could withstand the poison of the opponent who finished first, such a person could have the time to finish his poison and then attack the opponent.

Resistance to poisons was precious to classify a poison master, so being more or less quick in preparing poisons was not significant. Instead, the most relevant thing was to have good resistance and to be able to produce something compelling!

Hence, as long as one of them could remain conscious, the match would continue!

Lothur and his opponent nodded, indicating that they were bored, and then that referee promptly made his move to start the match.

"Begin!"

When he turned the hourglass above that platform, the two young men rushed to the table with the ingredients to begin their plans.

'Let's see what you can do now, worm...' The young man thought to himself as he thought of a potent poison formula to take down Lothur.

His family had commanded him to use his skills to the fullest to hurt or even kill Lothur, so he was prepared to deal with this opponent of his. But not only that, as a person who loved to see his poison in action on others, he was more than happy to be able to take down this above-average-looking person.

He, like most poison masters, did not have a good appearance. So for him, it was a great offense that someone like Lothur existed, even more so considering that this guy dared to register in the competition for poison masters.

Thus, he could not help but smile as he started to prepare something to ruin the good life of that daring fellow!

'Hehe, you'll suffer a bit before you die...'

While Rudolf was preoccupied with his thoughts, Lothur looked at him with narrowed eyes.
