Mixed Blessing System

"About that, the person who tried to kill you was probably wearing a Silver-grade mask. An item of that quality could fool even cultivators." She said as she thought about how absurd that was, but that was the most plausible explanation she had in mind.

Aside from that, it would be impossible for someone to disguise themselves so perfectly unless this enemy had a Physique that gave her an awe-inspiring and rare innate ability.

Lothur \'was\' only a mortal, but even people like that could perceive distinctions in the physical appearance of a person trying to impersonate another without high-level items or abilities. So, Viktoria had the impression that this enemy had used a Silver-grade item as the second option was even more unimaginable.

An item could be bought or taken using force. But an ability like that, only by being born with one, could someone have such an advantage.

"A mask? Really?" He said as he looked into his wife\'s beautiful eyes, ignoring his nakedness. "So with something like that, anyone can impersonate other people? Isn\'t that too scary?"

Viktoria turned around, no longer looking at Lothur\'s naked body, and said. "Yes, this is a terrible thing, and precisely because of this, it is not easy to buy, produce, or find items of this kind."

"The imperial family even forbids the use of such masks."

"If someone is caught wearing something of the sort, that person can even be executed!"

"So you don\'t have to worry about often facing situations like that. And there are ways to take action against users of such items." She said, looking sideways, seeing he had not taken the opportunity to dress up.

"Do you intend to keep showing me this thing or what? Get dressed!"

"Oh?" Lothur finally realized the chill in his intimate area, discovering that he was naked. "I\'m sorry, dear. Sometimes I sleep like this, so I\'m used to being this way..."

She blushed a little as she watched him dress, curious to know how he hid that thing in his clothes.

But then she heard his question. "You said there are ways to take action against someone like that... How?"

"Hmm?" She did not pay attention at first, but after a few seconds, she noticed that she had become distracted and said to him. "It doesn\'t make much difference to you because a strong spiritual sense is necessary to do something like that."

Items like the one used by Elise were magnificent. Not only for its ability to change one\'s appearance almost perfectly but also for making it difficult for such a thing to be noticed by others.

That is, it was not impossible to notice the use of such an item, but other people would need to be looking for it from the start. Otherwise, even using one\'s spiritual sense to check the spiritual fluctuations of the mask user, others would not be able to perceive the effect of the mask.

In any case, someone capable of probing the peculiarities of such an item could break its effect by using some methods. But since Lothur \'was\' only a mortal, Viktoria did not waste her time explaining to him the complex method of doing this.

\'Spiritual sense, eh?\' Lothur pondered this as he finished dressing, feeling that the system would not fail even if he tried to identify someone wearing such a mask.

"Anyway, someone tried to kill you last night, and we can\'t just stand by and do nothing..." She walked toward the exit door of her residence, intending to talk to her parents.

However, on the way there, she heard that door slammed by her servant.

Pa! Pa!

"Young miss?" Elise asked from the other side of that door, with a quiet expression on her face, preparing to show her great surprise at Lothur\'s death.

\'Hehe, I will finally be able to go ahead with my plans.\' She closed her eyes momentarily, just before Viktoria opened that door.

But as she looked inside that residence, Elise also saw the figure of Lothur walking behind that brown-haired woman.

\'What?\' Her eyes opened wide as she took a step back, totally shocked to see that scumbag alive and well.

Gulp!

\'How can this be? How can he be alive? How? How?\' She swallowed her saliva in nervousness, not understanding what was wrong with this world that such a person would not die no matter what she did.

\'Is he immortal by any chance? Or was the damn poison I got from that trash rotten?\' She tried her best not to show her surprise at seeing Lothur alive, but soon that man put her in a difficult position.

"Viktoria, the person with me yesterday served a meal that your servant supposedly prepared." He looked significantly at Elise, beginning to suspect this woman.

Seeing the look in Elise\'s eyes, Lothur did not know if she was surprised to see him at Viktoria\'s residence so early in the day or if there was something more to it. But considering the past between the two, he honestly did not doubt that she would be capable of trying to eliminate him.

Hence his suspicion!

After hearing that, Viktoria looked strangely at Elise. "Did you prepare dinner for someone last night? Did you do something against Lothur, Elise?"

Realizing that, Elise left her dazed thoughts regarding the hard-to-kill Lothur and looked at Viktoria with an ignorant look. "Young miss, I don\'t know what you are talking about."

"Yesterday, the young miss was out of Peters City, so how could I have prepared any meal? And what could I have done for that scumbag, young miss? I only contact him when I have to!"

"Why would I try anything when I got a night off?" She said this in an unjustified tone.

"Plus, last night, I was with one of my roommates! She can confirm that I didn\'t leave the dorm all night!"

Hearing that, Viktoria felt that her servant was probably not at fault since Elise had an alibi. Besides, that blond woman was only a mortal, so the chance that she had participated in something so dangerous was slight.

Cultivators could use mortals, but hardly one of them would be and still remain alive. Thus, Viktoria\'s suspicions of Elise had already diminished considerably.

On the other hand, the chance that Elise had acted directly against Lothur was even more unlikely. After all, high-level spiritual items demanded energy to operate. But then again, such a servant did not have what it took to do so...

"Is that so? Then..."

As Viktoria was about to say something, but then Lothur stepped forward and commented, still suspicious of Elise. "Dear, I don\'t think she\'s telling the truth."

"The person I met yesterday seemed a little too interested in the compliments I paid your servant\'s culinary skills. At first, I thought it was no big deal since I thought she was you."

"But now I have the impression that such a person was her."

Elise looked at Lothur in shock, regretting not cutting his throat when she had the chance. But thinking how he could prove nothing, she said in an anger-laden tone. "You scumbag! You\'re very good at accusing innocent people!"

"I already said I spent the night in the servants\' dormitory. So, how do I have anything to do with this business of yours?"

Lothur ignored her protests and used some of his strength to take that woman in his embrace, preparing to test his theory. "Viktoria, I kissed that person who tried to kill me. I can easily identify such a person if I kiss her again."

After hearing that, Elise began to break into a cold sweat since her life would be over if she fell there.

She was powerless to run away from Viktoria. Furthermore, if she did that, it would probably be her end. After all, she could not act now, or it would only confirm Lothur\'s suspicions!

\'What do I do? What do I do?\' She felt her whole body growing weaker, and her head began to ache. \'Maybe he can\'t recognize me! He was drunk yesterday...\'

But before Lothur could make his final move, Viktoria pulled him away from his servant, preventing the two\'s kiss. "Lothur, I know you have a lot on your mind now, but don\'t think I\'ll let you force yourself against her on that account."

"A kiss is not evidence of a crime!"

"How could you identify someone like that? It\'s absurd!"

"No, I could..."

"No!"

"Let\'s investigate this properly. Elise has already given her answer, so we need to check this information." She said as she pulled him away from Elise, who was a suspect but did not deserve to be sexually assaulted by him.

As a woman, Viktoria could not allow such a thing to happen in front of her. What would she do if Elise was innocent? A kiss might not be a big deal, but this lady despised people who forced servants to do sex work and the like. So, how could she allow Lothur to go through with it?

"Tsk!" Lothur closed his eyes, feeling the frustration of being prevented from resolving this doubt in his heart.

As for Elise, she felt a great relief in her chest, still breaking into a cold sweat. \'Good thing Viktoria is pure, or...\'

Gulp!
