Chapter 787 Time to Go?
After leaving the Ritter Motor Company headquarters, Lothur would meet with the Koch family at the Ritter family headquarters, where he would introduce his women to his family's espionage business for the first time.
Lothur would give the Koch patriarch, the leader of this operation, several orders. Among them, he would say that once this group had managed to spy on the entire empire and started spying on neighboring states, they should look for information about the Seven Singularities.
Lothur didn't expect to find anything in the short term. Still, as the Ritter Motor Company grew out of Leopoldine, he thought that information about it might show up. Since he didn't intend to return to Peters City anytime soon, this order had to be given now so the group wouldn't miss anything from the start.
In addition, he would give several other orders about specific items, demons, spectres and about how the group should handle information about these creatures.
Lothur would personally deal with these creatures on his journey, but he would not leave his people unprepared.
After a long conversation with the Koch patriarch, Lothur and his two women went to the estate where Viktoria and Annaliese were with their mother.
...
Arriving at the estate, Lothur, Elke, and Rebecca found Mabel recovered for the first time and couldn't help but notice how radiant she looked.
Mabel didn't just look stronger. She looked transformed!
The sparkle in her eyes and the energy she exuded were completely different from weeks ago when she was living like a widow waiting to die.
Seeing this, Elke and Rebecca were a little surprised but felt that it must be due to her recovery and progress.
'Lothur must have given her a Soul Bone after healing her condition.' They thought, imagining that this was behind Mabel's current level.
Meanwhile, Annaliese and Viktoria were very happy for Mabel, who was now much more relaxed about traveling with Lothur and leaving her in Peters City.
"Are you leaving already?" Mabel asked as she looked at Elke and Rebecca, trying not to look at Lothur as things that shouldn't be on her mind were tempting her while she was around the young man.
"Hmm, we'll just spend the night in the city and start our journey tomorrow," Elke replied.
"Have you taken care of everything you need to take care of?" Annaliese asked.
"Most of it," Rebecca said.
"Then this is better left to you, mom." Annaliese handed Mabel an Emperor demon Soul Bone, Platinum-grade, what Lothur had given her.
"You should train for a few days at most and then take this bone without further ado. As interesting as it might be to delay the absorption, it could be perilous. For as much as the Soul Bone can give you greater benefits the stronger you are, going without it can weaken you." Viktoria advised, feeling that her mother had better absorb it as soon as possible.
As far as she and Annaliese were concerned, her mother didn't need to make much progress with this first bone they gave her. As their journey progressed, they were sure to get new Soul Bones.
When they had more bones compatible with Mabel's Spirit Body, they would find a way to send them to this woman!
Even though she wouldn't have a great bonus now because she had very weak characteristics, they thought it would be best for Mabel to absorb this bone as soon as possible.
Mabel smiled at her daughters as she stored the bone in her spatial ring, determined to do it soon. "I will train for another week. The results of my training have been perfect, so I want to continue. After that, I'll absorb it as you say."
With that, the group there would soon split up inside that residence, each going off to prepare in their own way. Eventually, the night would fall, and Mabel would host a feast for this family, taking the opportunity to be with her daughters for the last time in who knew how long.
Mabel was sure she would hear from her daughters occasionally. But even then, it could be months before she saw them again, something that had never happened until this day.
In the middle of this special evening, she tried to ignore the sensation in her body because of Lothur's presence, feeling a little guilty after everything she had done.
She couldn't deny that she had enjoyed every second of it. And her body screamed with joy, so much so that no one could imagine her great guilt.
Even though she looked radiant and delighted on the outside, Mabel was in an unprecedented dilemma between feeling good about her pleasure with Lothur and feeling bad about betraying her daughters and her husband.
As the hours passed and the silence of the night set in, she would have to try hard not to think about what Lothur must have done with those four women and also try hard not to get carried away by the sensation in her body.
...
The next day...
Lothur had taken care of all his women's needs the night before, while Mabel had barely resisted the temptation to try to watch them or even get close to him.
Lothur couldn't imagine what his mother-in-law had been through that night, and when he got up in the morning, he simply ignored her as he went to the kitchen to eat his breakfast.
Lothur thought Mabel was beautiful, but he had no big fantasies about her. He'd done what he'd done to her because he wanted to punish her, and hell, he could get as rough as anyone with a beauty like his mother-in-law.
But he didn't want to make her one of his women, so he just treated her like his mother-in-law when he found her in the kitchen in the morning.
If he knew how terribly Mabel felt for being so attracted to him, Lothur would actually smile in satisfaction, for that was what he was looking for.
After a few comments among themselves and the awakening of his four women, it wouldn't be long before Lothur, and the four of them left to take care of their last business in the city before their departure.
Later that day, they would make some recommendations to Mabel about the management of the Ritter Motor Company until it was finally time for them to leave for the north.
At the end of the afternoon, Lothur, his four women, Mabel, and the most important members and allies of the Ritter family stood at the entrance to the family headquarters to bid farewell.
Elke said goodbye to her parents, while Rebecca said goodbye to her mistress, Elisabeth. On the other hand, some important people in the city wished Lothur good luck, while the Frost family said goodbye to Annaliese and Viktoria.
"I hope you come back stronger, my daughters. But don't worry about me. I'll be fine." Mabel said before looking at her son-in-law. "Lothur, take care of them. They're all I have."
With that, Lothur nodded to his mother-in-law and looked at his women. "Shall we go?"
With their confirmation, he opened a spatial rift to one of the northernmost borders of the empire. He was soon on his way with his women, finally leaving.
