By this time, Lothur had arrived alongside Elke and Annaliese at the Hippodrome. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

They were met by a group of employees of this place, most formally dressed women, almost like stewardesses commonly seen on Earth.

In addition to the dozen or so employees who were there to attend to the guests and the guards, Lothur's group found various food and beverages in the main ceremony hall.

That place had several tables for people to sit at in different groups, a small stage on one side, and a large table with the snacks in question.

The place seemed quite suitable for this situation, with the luxury expected from such a place.

Everything was tasteful, from the curtains on the windows to the light fixtures on the ceiling, but of course, matching the style of environment this establishment was trying to sell. That of a country estate, where races and bets could be made, while the business could be discussed in places like this.

Lothur approved the place as he noticed all this while Annaliese and Elke were already grabbing some snacks.

"So, did you make it?" Frederik's voice came from the entrance of that hall, where this young man had just arrived after showing his invitation to the guards of this estate.

Lothur turned with those two women and saw that fellow dressed the way he was the last time he had seen him.

But it did not matter. Frederik did not need to dress well to prove his skills, so Lothur did not bother about that.

He replied. "Yes, for the moment, it's perfect for what we need."

Lothur was not so negligent as to think that he would not have to adjust his design when he went to produce different vehicle models than the kart he made this time. So there was work to be done before cars became popular in this world.

But with his current skills and the kart results, young Ritter was confident that, unlike the formations masters who had failed to try to do the same thing as him, he would succeed!

Frederik laughed in satisfaction at this, then quickly ignored Lothur's group to grab something to eat and find a place to sit.

Soon after, Viktoria, Aiken, and an elder from the Frost family arrived at this hall almost at the same time as Johann's group.

Johann could not bring the patriarch of his family since, even though Lothur was involved, that man did not value young Ritter much. But still, the wife of the patriarch of the Teusen family was there to accompany this event.

When she saw the Frost patriarch, this woman was not surprised. After all, even if Aiken was powerful by Linn Province standards, Lothur was from that family, so his presence was expected.

Hence, after greeting this old acquaintance, this woman sat quietly somewhere, not expecting much of what Johann had promised.

This young man approached Lothur and said. "I am sorry that I did not bring anyone else from my family. But I believe we can do much, even in this situation."

Lothur nodded, already knowing that Johann would embark on this journey at his side.

Then the most important guests began to arrive.

First were the patriarch and matriarch Becker, who were accompanied by their number one subordinate, Heinz.

Next, Lina and Amelie, from the Christen family, arrived with a man Lothur did not know but who must be more important than them since he was stronger than both.

With the end of the Province Conference, this family had already been nominated as a replacement for House Dohmen. So, it was only a matter of time before they became another local noble organization.

With that, seeing the arrival of these representatives from other relevant families in the province, the Teusen matriarch could not help but change her behavior.

"Johann, why didn't you tell me that so many important people would be coming?" The Teusen matriarch asked her nephew as she began to behave better. "If I had known, it would have made your uncle come with us!"

"I didn't know who was coming either..." Johann said in a low voice, just before opening his mouth in surprise as he saw the following two groups arrive.

At that moment, Anneke arrived alongside three beautiful ladies representing the Koch family. At the same time, the principal of the Morning Star Academy walked through the entrance door, quickly looking for a place for himself and his secretary.

"Oh?" Aiken was also surprised to see that man, whom he hardly saw, but knew that he was not so different from Mabel. 'It seems that Lothur has more respect and influence than I...' He internally laughed.

The academy principal was also surprised to find so many important people there. He even opened his eyes wider when he saw coroner Klossner arriving with his people shortly after.

August was a friend of the Frost family, so this coroner soon approached where Aiken, Viktoria, Annaliese, and that elder Frost were.

"Aiken, it's good to see you again..."

They greeted each other as the last guests of this occasion arrived.

Lothur greeted Jacob, that young man's family, and the other family he had met in Lewerenz when he passed through that city alongside Elke.

Eventually, three other groups settled in, two from bourgeoisies and one from a medium-sized noble family, similar to House Teusen in terms of power.

When everyone had settled in, the hall was over 70% full, but only one family had not sent representatives.

"You should visit your mistress more, Lothur..." A purple-haired woman said to him while having Rebecca at her side.

Lothur looked at Elisabeth and saw her status.

[Name: Elisabeth Vogel]

[Soul Cultivation: level 15]

[Body Cultivation: level 11]

[STR: 69.2] [CON: 86] [DEX: 73.1] [AGI: 72.9] [SOU: ???]

"I'll do that soon..." He said softly before asking. "Mistress, what is your relationship to the Vogel family?"

Rebecca then told Lothur not to annoy their mistress. "Hey, what are you asking? My mistress left that family a long time ago. So don't talk like that!"

"Oh?" Lothur realized he had forgotten that. "That's right, I'm sorry, hehe."

"Why do you ask about that?" Elisabeth asked.

"Nothing much. I recently ran into some members of that family, and they treated me badly. I just remembered that you have the same last name."

"Oh? I see. They really are scum..."

With that, after talking to his mistress, Rebecca, and people from the Formations Masters Association, Lothur walked up to the stage in that area and asked for silence.

"Okay, almost everyone is here, so it's time for us to get started with this event." He looked from one side of that place to the other, taking advantage of the silence to make his presentation once again.

"As most of you know, I have a project for a vehicle independent of animal or human power, which people will be able to use to get around."

"That means of transportation will be called a car, and it will be the main focus of the Ritter Motor Company."

"Today, you are all here not only to see the prototype of this vehicle in action but also to have a chance to buy shares of the Ritter Motor Company."

"This is the beginning of the auction of the shares of such a company!"
