Chapter 227 Time Of Departure 2

"8th Transformation?" She repeated his words as she opened her eyes wide, shocked that he was already so strong. "Are you serious?"

"Hmmm." He nodded, still looking into his wife's brown eyes.

'It's not for nothing that his body has improved so much!'

'It all makes sense now!' She cautiously looked at him, checking her husband's physical condition, which had improved substantially over the past few weeks.

As she did so, she remembered her intimate moments with Lothur and realized how foolish she had been. 'That's right. How could a mortal accompany a person at the 2nd stage for hours in bed?'

'It was obvious that he wasn't normal, but he still fooled me!' She bit her lips as she saw Lothur also checking her out.

But he was not just admiring his wife's beautiful body. Instead, Lothur was checking her status, something he had gotten into the habit of always doing when seeing someone.

[Name: Viktoria Frost]

[Cultivation: level 12]

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

'She had a breakthrough, huh?' But then, he noticed that Viktoria was now at the 3rd Revolution of the Spiritual Warrior stage.

And seeing that, he realized that even with mental attributes similar to someone at the beginning of the 2nd stage, he still could not see the physical attributes of people of that stage.

'Apparently, only when I become a Spiritual Warrior will I be able to do that...'

He remembered some of Annaliese's teachings. 'The 2nd stage is supposed to be the beginning of soul cultivation and differentiation from body cultivation. Then I probably have to experience a qualitative change to 'spy' on the characteristics of people above level 9.'

As Lothur considered these questions about his limitations, Viktoria sighed after thinking about how he had hidden without effort, but she did not think it was terrible.

She knew that he should be unable to cultivate due to the actions of his enigmatic father's group. But since he had done such a thing on his own, it meant that either such a person had left that possibility to him or had underestimated her husband.

In either case, it was not her fault, resulting in positive points for their relationship!

Viktoria wanted to be with Lothur because it felt good when she was intimately involved with this man. But she was not unreasonable and knew the problems of relating to a mortal.

So finding out that he was a cultivator and was already close to having a breakthrough to the next stage, she could not help but be happy, with the weight on her shoulders lessening.

'That's good.'

'I won't have to think about the problem of having given my virginity to someone who won't be able to be by my side in a few decades.' She squeezed one of his hands, thinking about it. 'Even if he is not talented, at least he will be with me for a few centuries.'

'That is already many times better than I had previously accepted...'

"Very well, Lothur. I am glad that you have already reached that level." She said after a while. "I think it would have been better if you had told me this earlier, but it's nice to find that out finally."

"Anyway, we must tell my parents and the academy..." She was saying that, but he interrupted her.

"No. I've gotten used to my current situation at the academy, and I have plans in that place. As for your family, I'm not interested in them bringing more complications for me."

She swallowed her saliva and was silent for a minute. "That's fine, but they'll find that out anyway. You're going to attend the Province Conference, and you won't be able to hide."

"It's better this way. If they find out now, they'll cause me trouble. But by the time the conference happens, I'll be living somewhere else..." He smiled at her.

"So that's what you want..." Viktoria closed her eyes and then said. "All right. So, you want to talk to them about our departure now?"

"Hmm, I don't want to stay on this property any longer than I have to." He walked around, looking for the items Viktoria had brought from his room to this residence of hers.

"And where are we going?" She asked as she watched him pick up his books.

"I don't know. First, we'll look for a hotel. Then we'll look more calmly for a house that meets our needs..." His voice came from inside Viktoria's office.

"I have a place that..."

Lothur interrupted his wife again. "We are not staying in a place paid for by your family. I will bank the cost of my place."

She chuckled upon hearing that and asked. "How? Did your guardian happen to leave a fortune for you, dear?"

"I have my own business. I will soon do something that will shock the entire empire, dear wife." He said in an arrogant tone.

After that, it was not long before Lothur and Viktoria set off in the direction of her parents' residence, where they quickly met up with Aiken.

As for Mabel, she was at that residence, but to avoid the previous situation, she decided not to meet with the scumbag who had corrupted her daughter.

"Lothur, it is good to see that you are better." Aiken said in a friendly tone, already knowing that that young man probably felt terrible about the treatment he received in that family.

He felt terrible for Lothur, but unfortunately, he was powerless over this problem. Thus, he could only try to talk softer to that unfortunate young man.

"Patriarch, I am here to ask for my liberation. I no longer wish to live in this place, where I am not welcome." Lothur said as he heard Mabel's noises coming from another room.

"Lothur, that is not true. Things are a bit complicated, but we've always had open doors for you..." He said as he touched Lothur's right shoulder.

"I don't see it that way, so I want to leave." Lothur remained in his position, looking thoughtfully into that man's eyes. "I'm going to fulfill my responsibilities to the family regarding Viktoria, the upcoming competition, and the identification of the traitor. But I don't want to be limited in other ways, having to live here or meet with unreasonable people..."

"Tsk!" A distinct tongue sound came from another room in that residence, but nothing strange happened.

The three people continued in the middle of the living room of that residence, with Viktoria holding her hands at chest height and her father with a sighing look on his face.

"There is nothing we can do to resolve this without you having to leave? It will be bad for the family if our daughter lives elsewhere."

"There are dangers that will not be able to be contained outside our property, not to mention the loss of face our family will have by allowing our son-in-law to go live outside..." He said, trying to move this young man.

p If it were not for the fact that only Lothur could help them identify the family traitor, he and Mabel would not allow him to leave. But since the situation was in this young man's favor, they could only accept this loss!

Lothur then said. "Honestly, patriarch, the family has many other things to worry about than losing face. As for our safety, I've almost been poisoned to death in this place, so I don't think it will be so different away from here..."
