Chapter 284 Rebecca’s Poisonous Body

The instant such a thing vanished as it touched one of the runes on Rebecca's body, this woman closed her eyes momentarily as if she were processing such a thing.

As she did this in front of dozens of people in that place, several individuals there began to argue, raising the noise in the surroundings.

"That must be Elisabeth's disciple..."

"The Poison Body is truly great! It can withstand poisons of a higher level than its owner and even transform such a thing into the owner's power!"

"This girl will become even stronger after this fool gives his most powerful poison to her..."

"But is that a good thing? I've heard that this is a power that doesn't come without drastic consequences..."

"Hmm, I don't want to be around when that 'time bomb' goes off!"

While some paid attention to Rebecca's Physique, others felt their hopes of getting close to Lothur diminish.

'Apparently, Elisabeth already has a relationship with this boy from the Frost family, or her disciple would not be here to defend him...' One of the elders watching this event thought quietly.

'It looks like she managed to steal another great local talent. What a shame, that woman is fortunate!'

Annaliese watched all that with concern and felt a great relief to see that woman of whom she did not have a good impression defending Lothur in time.

'At least she's good for something...' She sighed, thanking Rebecca in her heart for her act and also admiring some of this woman's skill.

The man who threw such a thing in Lothur's direction then saw Rebecca open her eyes and look in his direction.

But before they could say anything, the match referee shouted angrily. "Sitz family, you have just committed a serious infraction! Don't you know that we don't allow acts against competitors outside the combat platforms?"

The other elder of that family then said. "Match referee, I am sorry for my companion's inconsequential act. But our competitor is in a terrible state. You must understand that in these situations, reason speaks lower..."

As Rudolf continued to groan in pain, the friends from House Sitz raised their voices, asking the referee to understand the situation that led to such an inconsequential act.

Lothur and Rebecca saw all this, but since they knew there was no point in calling for justice in this place, they just left that platform and went back to Annaliese.

The match referee then said as he saw Rudolf being taken from there. "Very well, I understand the situation, but your family will receive a notification for this. If something like that happens again during this tournament, your entire organization will be eliminated from the competition for poison masters!"

"The referee is magnanimous." The same elder from before made a gesture of thanks to that individual. At the same time, Lothur's point was added to the rest of the Frost family.

[... 13th. Frost Family: 13...]

This time, the position of this organization did not rise after Lothur's win, but this was not strange or discouraging.

Above this family were the top-ranked families, organizations of similar or greater power than theirs but who did not have much opposition in their fights, unlike them.

Yes, there was a dispute between the most influential powers in the province, but that was something far less than House Frost had to endure.

So, with better competitors and fewer problems, naturally, more of the competitors from these families would move up a stage and earn points that put them ahead of Lothur's family.

However, for Lothur and Annaliese, this was not bad since this was only the first day of competition when most of their allies and enemies would be eliminated. However, once the second day arrived, even families ahead of them could easily be outnumbered!

Thus, neither of them was upset about House Frost's current position!

"Becca, are you okay? That attack must have overwhelmed you, no?" Lothur asked as the two of them sat down near Annaliese in the chairs that were in that area.

Rebecca was feeling a bit 'full' and would need some time to recover. But she said. "Don't worry. That was a good challenge that will stimulate my characteristics..."

"Anyway, I appreciate your movement," Lothur commented as he ran one of his hands down the middle of her back while looking toward the person who had tried to attack him. 'I won't forget that...'

As they talked, the people in the area who were there to watch Lothur were either totally frustrated or very pleased.

Some there were people from the Frost, Becker, and Christen families and the Formations Masters Association. Therefore, seeing Lothur's excellence in this other profession, they could only be pleased.

It was unusual for people to be so good at two professions since it required a lot of time and dedication to be exceptional in only one area of expertise. But if someone could so easily master two different fields, no one would think it bad to be connected to such a person!

So, those associated with him or who could positively suffer from his abilities were pleased with this preliminary result of Lothur's in the competition for poison masters.

But that was the complete opposite for the people on Kai's side.

"Shit!"

"How did that happen?" One of Kai's subordinates said this out loud while waiting for the second round of this competition to return to his superior.

The man next to him also had an unfriendly expression on his face and said. "This will be a catastrophe for us. We acted to hurt the Frost family by forcing them to put this bastard in the competition. But now he is screwing up all our plans!"

"Tsk!"

"At this rate, the Frost family will be able to maintain their position!" The other said as a new match was already taking place on the poison master competition platform.

...

After a while, nobody knew what had happened to Rudolf, but the second-round matches for poison masters had already been decided.

And with that information in mind, Lothur soon listened to Rebecca and Annaliese's advice.

"You have to be careful with that opponent Lothur. He is someone much stronger than that Rudolf, already being at the peak of the 1st stage." The green-haired woman said to him.

Annaliese nodded in agreement. "He is already at the peak of the 9th Transformation and is a favorite of the Frohberg family."

Lothur heard this and pondered what the enemies of the Frost family were doing against him. 'That is a hazardous plan. What will happen if I eliminate all the best competitors from these organizations right at the beginning of the competition? Aren't they at all afraid of losing a lot of positions because of that?'

The first day of fighting was critical, but to force fights against him and risk losing their best members was like giving up points on the next few days of competition.

Hence, Lothur was becoming increasingly interested in the enemy's strategy, which would invariably open up gaps for him to grow further ahead.

'Well, if they want to suffer so badly, I will give them what they want!' He thought of something and looked at Rebecca.
