Mixed Blessing System-Chapter 384 Elemental Staff

When Lothur opened his eyes and saw someone in that room besides himself and Viktoria, he immediately moved to pick up the staff in his spatial ring.

He barely thought it through at that moment. Still, he knew that picking up his ax would not make any difference against that opponent, that the system immediately showed him the status.

[STR: ????] [CON: ????] [DEX: ???] [AGI: ???]

Since he already had the Space Belt around his waist, in case something went wrong, he could still teleport with Viktoria to another room in this house.

With that, that staff that looked like a stick of a broom appeared in his right hand, almost at the exact moment that the enemy's spiritual attack was about to hit him and Viktoria.

Viktoria also awoke from her sleep as she sensed something was wrong, and it did not take long before she noticed the figure of that masked man.

Such a person was trying to trap the two in a giant 'spirit hand,' a spiritual ability useful for kidnapping weaker individuals.

That was very effective for trapping and carrying targets and could silence and even camouflage the spiritual fluctuations of the one being held.

Knowing this, Viktoria frowned as she tried unsuccessfully to act to defend herself and Lothur.

Just as that giant hand was about to grab them both from that bed, Lothur lifted the staff and saw such a thing touch the semi-transparent hand that was grabbing him and Viktoria.

When that object came into contact with the enemy's 'attack,' Lothur and Viktoria saw a magnificent thing happening.

The large hand made of spiritual energy and Natural Laws crumbled. That was similar to what would happen to ashes from a sheet of paper after they were touched by something minimally capable of scattering them.

Like ashes crumbling, that spiritual hand powdered, causing the blue glow of such an ability to fade little by little in that room.

At the same time, the masked man and the two youths opened their mouths in surprise.

'What? How can that be?' Viktoria asked, knowing that such a man was stronger than her mother, so it should be impossible for something like that to happen.

On the other hand, that Transcendent, who knew many more things than Viktoria, did not take long to understand what had just happened before him. 'My attack wasn't strong enough, so this thing undid it? Impressive! And to think he would have something like that.'

Gulp!

Lothur realized the enemy did not look too shocked and decided to run away.

He tightened his arms around his wife's slender little body and immediately used the belt at his waist, choosing a place for him and her to teleport.

Zum!

Before that individual even made another attack, the two disappeared from that bed, teleporting to the exit door of that house.

The man in question opened his eyes wide as he noticed how slick Lothur was, hardly believing that such a young man had two such unique items.

'You hid well, huh?' He laughed, running towards where Lothur had arrived after using that belt for the first time.

But upon arriving at such a place, he saw Lothur using it for the second time, the most such a young man could achieve at his current level.

Meanwhile, Viktoria took advantage of the slight advantage they had to shout for help just when they reappeared several meters ahead of that place.

"Help! Help! Invasor!" Her voice was loud enough to be heard outside that property.

"Tsk!"

"Lucky brats!" That man lamented his ignorance of Lothur's means and wasted no time, running from there as fast as he could.

He was stronger than Mabel, but he had no intention of getting into trouble with this woman or the Frost family. Thus, since he had failed in his mission to kidnap Lothur, he would first retreat to avoid trouble for his side and only then think of something to do about it later.

'See you later...'

As such a person flew away, Lothur finally noticed that he was free from the pursuit of that mysterious man and sighed in relief.

"Sigh!"

"And to think we were attacked in this place..." He commented in a low voice. "If we were in our home, we would have nothing to do against him."

"Hmmm." Viktoria agreed, feeling the difficulty of the times in which they lived.

But before they could talk more about it, Mabel appeared in that place, dressed in her pajamas but holding a weapon in one of her hands while having an angry expression.

"What happened?" She asked as she looked at her daughter, who had screamed loud enough to wake this woman up. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

But before Viktoria could explain anything, Mabel realized her daughter's situation. "Are you stronger? But why does your condition seem down?"

"About that..." She did not answer her mother at first, talking about what had just happened.

Mabel noted that, indeed, an invasion was more relevant than a small advance by Viktoria and soon began to order the guards of this estate to scour for invaders.

She went to circle the area, but the trespasser had already fled far away, so neither she nor any men on that estate got any information at this moment.

Aiken also appeared in that place and approached his daughter to talk to her.

"Vicky, what happened? Why do you look weakened?" He asked, noticing that he could no longer do anything about the invader and that it was time to worry about this other thing.

"I ingested something in the family treasure that made me raise my strength. But that comes at the cost of temporarily being unable to use my soul." She answered her father's questions. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

"What? But that's very negligent!" He said. "How long are we talking about?"

"A couple of days."

"Sigh, so it's worth it..." He felt it was not that bad. "But what resource is this? I don't know anything from that place that can be consumed, except..."

"Yes, I ate one of those special fruits." Viktoria stated to her father, shocking that man.

"You what? Why did you do that? That item is for dealing with demons..."

"It seems we have been tricked, father..." Viktoria said, just before explaining to this man about the things she had learned from Lothur.

She could even doubt this young man's words before. But after testing the effects of one of those little fruits, the artifacts he pointed out to her and Annaliese, and seeing his two artifacts in action, she could not doubt him.

And with that, she explained to her father about the items she and Lothur had picked up, emphasizing that he had evaluated several artifacts in that place and still used two of them to save them both just now.

"Sigh..."

"So that's it." Aiken lamented for all he had lost without knowing about the actual situation of the family treasure. Still, he could not help but thank Lothur for revealing the truth when it was not too late.

Mabel heard all that from afar and was impressed, but she did not want to give Lothur the taste and returned to her home after noticing that there was nothing else for her to do.

"Lothur, thank you for protecting my daughter and helping the family again." Patriarch Frost said humbly. "If you have something to ask me, don't hesitate. I will do my best to help you."
