Chapter 438 Returning To The Journey

​ When the Vogel patriarch moved away from the confrontation site and put away his weapon, the people fighting in the surroundings slowed their pace, noticing that this was a sign of retreat.

Neither side wanted to have a deadly battle with the opponents, who were part of the relevant powers in the province.

All Lothur's enemies wanted was to eliminate this young man, so they did what was necessary while trying to fend off those pesky opponents. But as they realized that they were heading for defeat, having no chance to endanger the life of such a person, they recognized that it was not worth continuing.

Lothur's allies also did not want to take the matter to the point of no return, and at the least sign that the opponents wanted to stop, they also slowed their pace.

The only one who was not so happy about everything was Lothur since he knew that these powers would continue to bother him. But he also backed off, going to the side of his allies, knowing that even if he continued, he would not accomplish much there.

He needed to raise his Strength a lot to be able to injure these opponents seriously. But on the other hand, although he already had good allies capable of protecting him, his relationships had hardly reached the point where these men would kill for him.

Even considering the more than a dozen enemies injured and unable to continue fighting, hardly any of them would perish. Since he was not going to accomplish anything by continuing, Lothur accepted the end of this confrontation that way, without saying anything to keep the battle going.

"Let's retreat." Patriarch Frohberg said this while giving Lothur an ugly look.

All of that man's allies agreed while still looking at their opponents, holding their weapons.

But slowly, they put away their offensive items as they stared at their enemies.

Lothur then took advantage of this little time he had with some of the local leaders and said. "I advise you to stop watching me and plotting against me. If you change your attitude from today, we will not become friends. But I will not come to your doors to take revenge in the future." He tried a peaceful approach.

"Oh? Are you threatening us?" David Baier asked as he looked at Lothur's face, positioned so that everyone there could see that the injuries on his body were bothering him a lot.

He was standing, but his position was strange, like that of a sick man trying to look strong.

Lothur looked into the eyes of that opponent and said. "I am. It's up to you to go through this madness without reason and take the consequences or back down."

Every one of those 40 people felt terrible hearing this, as they were being threatened by a 20-year-old who, not long ago, was just an insect in their eyes. Not only that, the worst of it was that they knew that Lothur actually had the potential to be able to carry out his threats!

After his words, all these people were silent, hating him for a few more folds, knowing they could not do this easily.

They were not acting against Lothur because this young man was handsome, talented, and annoying. It was because their faction wanted him gone, and they followed orders.

Of course, there was a little bit of resentment caused by the killing caused by Lothur against groups of these families. But although relevant, this was the least of it in the whole situation.

Since they could not do much, these people could only curse Lothur in their minds.

"If you don't do this, I will have no mercy. There won't be a second chance." He said as some of his Mortal Aura escaped from his body.

'We'll see!' David Baier thought quietly, considering that the Third Prince faction had people far stronger than them.

Just because they had failed did not mean that their superiors would fail!

So Lothur could still die, and they could all be safe and free to enjoy the benefits that would come with the fall of the Frost family.

Because of this, several there were not so afraid of Lothur as to go along with what he wanted.

Lothur's allies viewed the situation with interest, noting how threatening Lothur was against his opponents, not at all shy about making promises and deciding things without talking to them.

But in the heat of the moment, everyone understood that a young man like him could say more than he should. In this way, no one caught his attention as they stood on guard to leave this area.

Some of them would still keep an eye on Lothur's group, but others would return to Peters City since the biggest threat to this young man had already passed.

These local powers were the ones that Lothur's allies wanted to prevent from doing anything against him. But, since even patriarchs had failed this night, these people already knew their ally would be free of these problems for a while, at least.

Lothur was also aware of this. Soon after the enemies started to leave the area, he thanked the strongest elders who had come to help him, promising to visit their families in the future.

Then, after one of the strongest there used his techniques to destroy the stone in the path in front of the carriages, most of them left, leaving those youngsters almost alone.

Only Lothur knew that some of them were still watching him from the surroundings while his five mission companions got out of the two carriages to talk.

"Wow!"

"That was amazing, Lothur!" One of the women said to him, feeling excitement after all the previous fear was gone.

"You are powerful! I couldn't even see your movements during the battle." The level 10 young man commented, still pale after having seen the confrontation of local experts.

"Yes, I thought you would die, to be honest. But I'm glad I was underestimating you." Julia said as Elke hugged Lothur, happy with his performance.

But she soon smelled a strange smell coming from inside his clothes and pulled away.

"Haha, I forgot about that." Lothur commented, moving away from the group to clean himself up nearby.

Those people laughed at the situation, but each wanted to know how he had advanced without even needing to meditate.

Lothur had just walked while shining like a star, looking like a son of thunder, as he advanced in level. They had seen this, so they were curious to know what kind of forbidden art Lothur was using.

"Elke, you are pretty close, right? What happened earlier?" Julia asked their group leader.

Elke shifted her gaze to where her man had gone to change and said. "I don't know... Anyway, let's clear the track ahead. It's time to set off back on our mission." She made them look in the direction where several small stones had been left after the attack by Lothur's allied specialist.

Hence, they put the matter aside and quickly did that service until Lothur returned, already clean and dressed in new clothes.

Then their group returned to their journey, with the coachmen trying to forget the previous battle and focus on the road ahead.
