Upon seeing the corpse of that giant spider, Lothur began to wonder if it might have some value. After all, the thing was of abnormal size, and perhaps its body parts had some use in this world.

However, he had no knowledge concerning the animals of this world. He had no idea whether or not this being could have value. At the same time, he faced a crucial problem.

That was the size of that being.

Such an organism was massive, and Lothur did not have enough space in his spatial ring to store that body. But, on the other hand, he could not carry a corpse that big with him, as it could attract other animals and be problematic for him to complete his activities.

With that in mind, Lothur had a problem ahead of him, as he thought it was a waste to leave that corpse behind, but he also did not see how he could get the best out of it.

'Well, an animal that size must have its value.'

'Maybe if I pull the venom inoculating claws off this spider, I might be able to sell it somewhere.' He looked at that part of the brown and black corpse in front of him.

He then quickly made some moves with his ax, only using some cautiousness in his movements, as he was not yet used to his new strength.

After a while, he removed some small parts of the corpse from that area, leaving behind only the most significant part of it, which he could not take with him.

With that, he put all those parts into his spatial ring just before leaving the remains of that spider behind and heading back from where he had come from earlier.

...

After a few minutes, Lothur finally arrived at the place where he had fought earlier.

Upon arriving in that area, he immediately found the three corpses from earlier, each in the same positions as before, still with their eyes open, as they had died.

Previously that blonde masked woman had passed by this place, but even though she knew these people, she had not bothered to do anything about their bodies.

No, she was not a friend, nor did she get along with those people, let alone care about their post-mortem dignity.

After all, they were just associates of the close organizations, people of lower status than her. So, she had not taken care of those corpses but had abandoned them in that place for the animals to devour!

Anyway, Lothur still did not know that others had passed by there, so he went directly next to the first corpse in his path, already curious to know what he would get there.

However, Lothur had taken too long to collect the items left behind by his enemies!

"That..."

'What the fuck! Where are these people's rings?' He found that strange.

He had noticed how each of his opponents previously had spatial rings in their hands. But now, he was in this place where none of the dead people had such items on their fingers.

And upon observing the surroundings carefully, Lothur finally realized that even the previous sword one of those individuals used was not around.

'Damn it!'

'Don't tell me I was robbed?' He felt frustration permeating his body, incredulous that such a thing had happened.

That was the middle of the forest, and yet the young man's enemies had already had their inheritances turned over by others who had nothing to do with their deaths.

And thinking about how someone could have the courage to steal someone else's targets, Lothur felt appalled at how low the morals were in the cultivation world!

"Shit!" He cursed aloud, feeling the mistake of not having looted those bodies earlier.

'If this happens again in the future, I can't delay in collecting the battle prizes!'

'I can't risk losing cultivation and financial resources so easily!' He clenched his hands tightly, sighing in defeat.

With that, it did not take long for Lothur to gather the bodies of those three people in the middle of a structure he had set up to incinerate them.

Lothur and these people had been enemies. But since he had killed them, this young man felt a responsibility to at least ensure that animals would not eat the bodies of his opponents.

That was the least dignity he could give these people.

But he did not wait to see those three bodies return to ashes. No, the moment black smoke began to rise in the sky of that area, he left.

His goal in returning to those people was to gather resources. But since he had accomplished nothing, he returned to his original plans of gathering the Tooth Grass.

Thus, he quickly made his way through that forest, constantly paying attention to his way so as not to make unnecessary mistakes.

...

While Lothur continued his business in the forest near Peters City, Alric's cousin was at this moment investigating the events concerning the beating of that fellow.

? Merten Baier was not the only one doing this work. Still, because of his proximity to Alric, he devoted some of his time to finding those responsible for Alric's tragic situation.

For this reason, he had challenged several of Alric's opponents in the Morning Star Academy, people who had been offended or had reason to act against young master Baier.

Alric had offended many people in the academy due to his arrogant and authoritative personality. Therefore, there was no lack of people in that place who would like to beat him up until there was not much left...

And among some of the disaffected was Lothur, of course.

However, this individual from the Baier family did not have Lothur as his prime suspect. On the contrary, in Merten's opinion, this good-for-nothing was probably the one with the slightest chance of being behind what happened to Alric.

In any case, he had challenged Lothur because this young man had already shown suspicious and disrespectful behavior towards the Baier family. So, he could at least repair the family's image by beating up Lothur for the whole academy.

As for the culprit for that situation, well, due to Alric's circumstances when he had been beaten, that, in Merten's opinion, had probably been the Mouse Company.

From what they had learned so far, Alric and his minions had beaten up two child members of the Mouse Company because of dissatisfaction with their service.

And before they even had a chance to kill those two, the event that the entire Baier family was lamenting had developed.

Because of this, that cousin of Alric's was heading for one of the posts of the Mouse Company at this moment, intent on finding those responsible for his cousin's tragedy.

"Have you dealt with those two?" Merten asked the servant who was accompanying him as he walked through one of the many alleys in the suburb of Peters City.

Upon hearing that, the servant dressed in a garment typically worn by butlers answered Merten. "Yes, young master Merten. The two brats beaten by young master Alric were eliminated soon after their interrogation."

"That is good."

"In these tumultuous times with the Frost family, we can't have any trace of crimes by important members, or our enemies might use that to neutralize us."

"Anyway, let's not talk about that now."

"All right, young master Merten."

"Well, let's see what we get in this place..." Merten looked at the abandoned building his servant was showing him the way to. "Are our forces already in place?"

"Yes. If any trouble happens, we will destroy this place."

"Very well!"

...

Meanwhile, the Becker family had already learned about Alric's tragedy, and the patriarch of that family was angry over such a disgrace.

He intended to marry his family to House Baier through a political marriage between Alric and Elke. Still, with that young man's manhood in check, such a thing was no longer sure to happen.

They could reunite Elke with another member of that family. Still, for the political arrangements he desired, it would be difficult to marry the daughter of a patriarch to someone who was not an heir.

After all, the point of this political marriage would be to bring benefits to both parties through an agreement of equals, given the future of Elke and Alric's children.

Unfortunately, a stone had appeared in the middle of the plans of the patriarchs of those two families!
