Mixed Blessing System



Five more days passed...

After testing his theories with those four previous men, Lothur had seen several battles like that one and done more tests.

Now he knew what he could do when trying to manipulate the laws of techniques of people weaker than him.

This was a good ability for him to learn different techniques without paying, but it would not give him much of an advantage in battle. Against people of the same strength range, Lothur judged that such manipulation would not work.

One way or another, for him, any extra ability, even if it didn't generate great returns, was a good thing.

Better to have this possibility than to have nothing!

After understanding better about this, he stopped doing his tests and went back to focusing on the training of his techniques and resistances.

Lothur continued to train his body techniques, especially the new ones he had learned, as they could help him improve his physical attributes.

At a point in his journey when he could not get stronger because he could not use his bloodline skill, nor had he had any chance to be beaten to use the Physique ability, this was the only way he could get stronger.

But he had yet to achieve any qualitative breakthroughs in his resistance, having only reached the peak of his resistance to poisons.

Unfortunately, the stronger the resistance was, the harder it was to train it to advance to a higher level.

Thus, he had been making less progress as the days went by. But he didn't mind. Training and getting stronger was something he did in the spare time of his trip, not the focus of what he was currently doing.

That was why, upon arriving in the central area of Rablus, Lothur was focused on continuing to travel through that state, heading towards where he planned to act against the Church.

...

As Lothur traveled through Rablus, the Ritter Motor Company's business was taking off in Leopoldine.

After several days of his departure, many of the workers hired from around the empire had already started their work in their home provinces, but also in Linn Province.

Streets and avenues in the six cities that would soon host Ritter Motor Company stores were already being altered with proper signage and paving.

Meanwhile, the roads from these cities were advancing by 20 kilometers a day, with more than 200 kilometers of roads having already been built outside Linn Province.

But that was just the progress made by staff outside the company's home province of Lothur!

Things had progressed much further in Linn Province in this period, with local roads having reached 300 kilometers paved.

In addition to the roads, the new factories were progressing rapidly, with the most advanced of them 40% complete.

After so many days since Lothur's departure, over 1,200 new vehicles had been delivered, significantly changing the movement of cars and minibusses around Peters City recently.

Meanwhile, Viktoria and the other women of Lothur were working for the company's future!I think you should take a look at

...

After the start of the expansion of the Ritter Motor Company's operations, Viktoria finally decided to set up a headquarters for the company.

Previously, the affairs of the company were handled at the first factory, and there was no office space for the company's management.

But with the company's operations growth and the number of employees dealing with more bureaucratic matters, the need to have a special place had arisen.

As such, Viktoria had already sent the order for such a place to be built days ago, and the building of Ritter Motor Company was already nearing completion.

She was standing in front of such a place right now, a five-story building in the central area of Peters City, entirely covered by glass on its facade and with a giant sign with a symbol of a car and the company's name inside it.

Seeing this place, she smiled and said to her men. "Very good, it is turning out as we imagined."

"Miss, we will finish the construction in 1 more day. After that, we can furnish the whole building for operation in three days." One of the men in charge of the construction team said while holding a clipboard.

"OK, continue your work." She said before leaving alongside three people, one of them her secretary and the other two men who were there to update her.

Halfway to the first Ritter Motor Company factory, she said. "You two can talk."

"Miss, we have a problem with the roads between the Ganz and Hassell provinces. An area between these provinces is dominated by beasts who, unfortunately, have not accepted our proposals." One of the two men said.

Viktoria had planned the roads around these six provinces to not only connect some cities within their own provinces but to connect to other provinces as well.

Her goal was to create a connection that would enable a person in one of these cities to take their car, travel through the six provinces, and eventually drive to Peters City.

Powerful cultivators would never use cars to make this trip. Still, buses with ordinary people and trucks with raw materials and food could undoubtedly use this option!

This would more easily integrate these cities into Peters City, something she thought was important for the company's progress.

"Is that so?" Viktoria frowned. "Don't worry about it. Continue with the original plans. I'll send someone to sort it out."

She looked at her secretary, a level 16 woman who had been in the Imperial Prison months ago.

Understanding Lothur's wife's gaze, this slave of his immediately moved to the Ritter family headquarters to select people capable of solving this problem.

If beasts were causing trouble for them in that area between provinces when they tried to solve their problems peacefully, then they would solve it the hard way!

While that woman moved to resolve that matter, Viktoria continued with those two men, listening in on other matters.

The number of orders had increased by more than 20,000 units after the company's expansion began, a reflection of the powers outside the province that had found out about the cars.

Others already knew about the vehicles from Lothur. Still, with no expectation of these wonders reaching them quickly, many had not traveled to this province to place their orders. But now that the company was showing signs that it would be different, the Ritter Motor Company was quickly gaining new customers!
