RISE OF EROS

Since they could not reproduce at high speed, the abysmals had remained silent, increasing their numbers and power, but now that they had been discovered, there was nothing else but to oppose their enemies.

Since they had been born from the blood of a fallen god with the mastery of war, these abysmals were not afraid of battle, in fact, they craved it, but they were not stupid, they knew that fighting a battle right now was a death for sure.

For this reason, Gusttat, the first of the abysmal humanoids created by the blood of the fallen god, decided that they would not fight a battle to the death. He devised the plan to let the beast-type abyssals be the cannon fodder, while he and the other humanoid abysmals fled.

Gusttat and the other humanoid abysmals had long wanted to leave the lost continent and go to the new continent because there they would have more creatures to increase their army. The problem was that they had no way to move the blood of the fallen god that turned them into abysmals.

Despite more than 1,000 years having passed, the blood of the fallen god had not dried up or weakened, for this reason, they could not move it. They did not know a single element that would allow them to contain it and if they touched it by mistake, its immense divinity would destroy them.

Knowing all this, Gusttat and the other abysmals had to make the decision to stay and die or flee, but lose the source of their power. Although a difficult decision, in the end, they chose the second because as long as they lived, there was a way to counteract the information.

While the abysmals and the experts of the new continent made their plans for the future battle, Andrew met with his wives and those close to him to define which country they would go to expand.

Each person contributed their opinion about which country they should go to, but each person only said the first thing that came to mind. Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Oliver intervened.

He released a little of his power, to silence everyone. Seeing this action, everyone looked at him strangely, because they did not understand the reason why Oliver used his strength to subdue them.

Some of them were even upset and noticing this Oliver explained, "You guys were going down the wrong path. Your proposals are places you want to go, but you have asked yourself, What does the young master need?"

Hearing Oliver's question, everyone gathered their necks in shame, because what Oliver had said was true. They were just throwing out names of countries they always wanted to visit and hadn't realized they weren't planning a vacation.

The most embarrassed were Andrew's wives because, despite their maturity and good sense, they were the most excited thinking that they were going on vacation. Andrew smiled when he saw them so embarrassed, but he didn't chase them.

"I know you all want to go somewhere and I promise that eventually I will take you there, but you have to understand that, right now, the priority is to improve our strength, so we must choose a country that meets those requirements," said Andrew.

"And what are those requirements?" Gaston suddenly asked, to which Andrew immediately responded, "As you know, my strength and yours are strengthened through sex and eroticism, so we need to go to a country with great beauties and special beauties."

"That means that visiting other races would be more practical, right?" Gaston asked again and Andrew replied again, "That's true. The other races have special traits that could be beneficial to us."

After saying this, everyone remained silent for a few seconds and suddenly Oliver spoke, "I think we should go to the western plains." Oliver's sudden proposal confused everyone, but they still didn't rule it out immediately.

However, it was not Andrew who asked, but Gaston, "Why do you propose to go to the Western Plains?", and Oliver replied, "Our goal is to reach out to as many different races as possible, and the Western Plains has such a place".

With these words, Gaston immediately exclaimed, "The Star City." Oliver smiled at Gaston's exclamation, but everyone else was confused. Not even Candice, who knew the world a little better, knew what Star City was.

Noticing this, Oliver began to explain, "As you know the western plains are passing the yellow desert after the kingdom of Dunnas. The western plains also border the green mountain ranges and Star City is a city that lies in the middle of the plain, the mountain range, and the desert."

The explanation did not seem to have helped the others understand, so Gaston continued the explanation, "The young master said that we need special beauties and that other races are more likely than humans to have these traits, so it is better to go to where there are many races."

Gaston paused and continued, "In the western plains live the were-beasts, who are not inferior in ethnicity and numbers to the demons. In the green mountain ranges there is said to be a considerable dwarven and elven population, not to mention that, in the yellow desert, the barbarians live."

When Gaston finished saying this, everyone seemed to understand what he meant. However, Oliver still continued to explain, "Star City is the center of all commercial exchange in that area, so many races gather there. It is said to be the most prosperous city on the continent in terms of relationships."

"Some other races can even be seen in that city apart from those that live nearby, especially humans who always proliferate where there is money and business," Gastón concluded.

"I had heard about a city considered a racial utopia, but I didn't know it was called Star City," Candice suddenly said as if she were speaking to herself, but upon hearing her, Oliver and Gastón laughed out loud.

Everyone looked at them strangely, but they didn't bother to calm their laughter. After a few seconds, they both calmed down and Oliver was the first to speak, "Mrs. Candice, while it is true that many races come together in this city, calling it a utopia is too much."

Oliver had barely finished speaking and Gaston continued, "That city is far from perfect. In fact, many say that it is one of the most dangerous places in the world and the only reason it still exists is that everyone needs it to exchange their goods."

"In short, it is a necessary evil," Andrew said, entering the conversation. Oliver and Gaston nodded at listened to those words and everyone fell back into thought.

Suddenly Andrew asked a question to Gaston and Oliver who seemed to know a lot about this Star City, "Will we be able to do our business there?", to which Oliver without hesitation replied, "Young master, there is no better place, but at the same time, it will not be easy".

"What do you mean?" Andrew asked again and Oliver did not hide anything from him, "As we already said, it is a dangerous city, where many races meet. It certainly has law and order, but it is not as strict as cities in other countries, so some customers could be problematic."

"I understand, however, for us that is not a problem. Anyone who acts too smart in our Heavenly Palace will suffer greatly," Andrew said with a mocking smile, but Oliver spoke again.

"What the young master says is correct, but he must not forget that outside the Heavenly Palace, we can still be attacked." Andrew immediately understood what Oliver meant.

In the capital cities of the Cannaris Empire and the Dunnas Kingdom, if someone attacked them in their establishment, they could fight back, without consequences, but in a place like Star City, no one would maintain order, so defending themselves is fine, but others would always come for revenge.

The question was not about clashing with a powerful enemy that would endanger them, but with one that would constantly annoy them and cause them difficulties. Sometimes the worst enemy is not the lion or the tiger, but the rat.

Understanding this, Andrew fell into deep thought, as he had to weigh whether it was worth taking this risk, but thinking again, he didn't know the city and it was difficult for him to make a decision, so he looked at Oliver and asked.

"Give me your honest opinion. Do you think we should go to Star City?", to which Oliver replied, "I think it's our best option." Andrew evaluated Oliver's words and also his expressions and turned to look at the others, "What do you think?"

All of Andrew's wives immediately responded that they would go wherever he wanted. Castor, Vala, Erick, Canna, Sonia, and Marie, were no different. Although they said different words, the intentions were the same.

Gastón agreed with Oliver from the beginning, so he didn't need to respond and in this way, it was defined that the next destination would be the Star City.

If you're wondering why Gaston, Erick, and Canna can talk so matter-of-factly about Andrew's qualities as a candidate for the god Eros, the answer is simple.

After the release of the second divine seal, Andrew decided to make them guardians. While Gastón and Canna are not fighters, they are trustworthy people and Candice had asked Andrew to do it, so there was no reason not to do it.

For this reason, they are now loyal subordinates of Candice and Andrew, not to mention that they are in awe of the great ability of their boss, who is capable of charming a future god.
