Hours after Lothur began using his skills in conjunction with the formations around the empire, he found the first targets for himself and his people.
Since these targets weren't the Sages he was looking for but groups of enemies who had entered Leopoldine's borders through places not guarded by Lothur's people, he did nothing immediately.
Lothur simply kept the location of this first group in his mind and turned his attention to finding the foreign Sages.
As he continued to do so, he would soon find signs of them in a particular area near the border of Utral.
Sensing the location of these individuals in that place, Lothur opened his eyes from where he was, a strong murderous intent flowing through him.
He stopped using his abilities and looked in that direction, seeing the final enemies he and his people would have to face to end the war.
Once they eliminated the enemy soldiers infiltrating the empire and these Sages, the enemy forces would have no choice but to retreat and seek a different approach to the war.
Either they would reach out to stronger allies and raise the level of the conflict, or they would have to give up their intentions and tell the world that they had merely invented an excuse to take over the Ritter Motor Company.
Either way, the low-level people would no longer be involved in the confrontation. Leopoldine could return to business as usual, with the Ritter Motor Company safely expanding.
During this brief period of confrontation and tension in the empire, Lothur's company operated normally. However, it was undeniable that the threats to the company were hindering its operations and its creator's ambitions.
Thinking that in the worst case, only he and the strongest of the state would face problems after dealing with these groups, Lothur was satisfied.
'Time to act!' He got up from where he was and didn't hesitate to open a spatial rift, from which he left hours after his arrival.
...
In the blink of an eye, Lothur arrived at one of Leopoldine's borders, with his enemies still in Linn Province.
Emerging from a spatial rift near the border with Lenz, Lothur immediately recognized one of the Sages he had created.
"Miss Jansen, accompany me. We will have a battle soon." He flew away as he spoke, just so that the level 22 woman could hear him.
Hearing Lothur's voice, the woman descendant from Mathias was unsurprised and understood what she had to do.
"Where are we going?" She asked, anxious to sort this out and, if she survived, return to her seclusion.
"Let us take your brothers and two of my women first. There's no need to maintain your posts on the borders. Let's end the war." Lothur said confidently, making the woman clench her fists in determination.
"Okay."
With that, the two quickly disappeared from the area, arriving in the blink of an eye at another border of the empire with their enemies, still in Linn Province.
...
Two hours after realizing the location of his enemies, Lothur was reunited with the three Jansen siblings, Elke and Annaliese.
He had instructed Viktoria and Rebecca to search the empire for two groups of infiltrators to capture and bring to the Three Great Lakes Region.
Meanwhile, he and this group were flying to the Leopoldine border with Utral!
Lothur looked at the people in his party and commented. "The enemy group has 5 Sages, three of whom are at the 1st Catastrophe and two at the 2nd Catastrophe. In other words, their strength is similar to ours in terms of cultivation level.
But don't make the mistake of thinking we're at the same level as that group. Some of us have extremely powerful body cultivations that affect our soul cultivations. So the enemies have much stronger souls than us, Elke, Annaliese."
"So what should we do?" The young redhead asked, confident in her abilities but aware that Lothur was the smartest one there and that she should follow his recommendations, not just because he was her man.
He said. "The enemy group is powerful, and I alone won't be able to stop their escape with my abilities. So, your task will be to stop the three weakest and eventually pressure them until they fall within my sphere of influence.
Considering your combined strength, the five of you should be stronger than these three weaker Sages."
"Senior Ritter, do you intend to deal with the 2nd Catastrophe Sages alone?" The only woman among the three descendants of Mathias asked with an astonished look on her face.
She knew that Lothur was strong and was about to reach level 23. However, the 2nd Catastrophe Sages were truly powerful and could have souls of more than 17,000 points.
This was a crucial difference in the power of Lothur's soul, and all the siblings knew it.
Lothur said to this woman. "Yes, I just need to get them close to me, and I'll do whatever it takes to defeat them. You'll just have to work with Elke and Anna to keep the others from escaping and bring them into my sphere of influence. I'll take care of everything else."
The three of them already knew what Lothur was, but they didn't know exactly how his powers worked.
However, they knew they could not underestimate this young man, and considering that this hybrid was their friend and not an enemy, they would not betray him.
Lothur had not only given them Soul Bones that had potentially saved their lives and given them breakthroughs. He also solved the problems of the Jansen family.
As such, the three of them were very grateful to Lothur. As soon as they heard his confirmation, they looked at each other and nodded their heads positively.
"Okay!"
With that, they finally arrived near where Lothur had sensed the presence of the enemy Sages earlier.
As Lothur had expected, they had moved on but were still nearby. After a short search of less than 15 minutes, he found them in a camp near the border of Cesha.
Knowing their location, Lothur and his party quickly surrounded the enemies who had suddenly appeared in the area but did not attack immediately.
The Sages of at least three states there noticed the powerful experts surrounding them and immediately raised their guards.
"It seems that the Sages of Leopoldine have come to us..." The strongest one there commented, looking directly at Elke, the strongest in terms of soul power there.
