RISE OF EROS

What they did not know was that while they were developing wonderfully in the kingdom of Dunnas, the empire of Cannaris was beginning to feel their lack. In fact, it was not that they were missed, but that, in this world, although not as globalized as Earth, nothing was hidden, at least not from the powerful.

Emperor Augustus would not fail to be wary of Andrew even though he was gone, as he still had business in his country, so he had instructed Demon to investigate his whereabouts and movements.

Demon, being an intelligence agent of great experience and skill, was able to locate Andrew and his wives in the kingdom of Dunnas in a short time. First of all, they already knew that Andrew had business in that country, as well as in Tampilla.

They were close countries, not to mention that Tampilla is an important ally, so it wasn't difficult to find Andrew's business there, especially since they knew about Andrew's relationship with the Amazons in the black forest.

It was easy to intuit that, if Andrew passed through the black forest, he must have business in Tampilla and since they have a strong friendship with that country, they could easily tell if Andrew had settled there.

Seeing that he was not in that country, logic dictated that they should be in Dunnas. This was because they were unaware that Andrew had business in Star City and thinking that his only other base was Dunnas, they investigated there.

As Andrew had gone out for a walk with his wives and children on several occasions in Dunnas, they were quickly found. After that, Demon's agents were always aware of his movements.

It was through this that they learned of his connection to Victoria, following their engagement and friendship with the royal family. They also learned about the mall project, as it was no longer unknown at this point.

When the royal family began to approach merchants to invite them to do business, the information stopped being privileged and although not everyone knew it, it was not difficult for intelligence agents like those of the Cannaris empire to find it.

Now Augustus was in his office, reading the report of what was happening and he couldn't help but be surprised at what he was learning. As a competent emperor, he immediately understood how lucrative and innovative the idea of ​​a shopping center was.

At that moment he regretted not having been more affectionate with Andrew, but even so, he was not someone who would stoop to asking for forgiveness. His pride and status as emperor did not allow it.

Despite feeling bad about missing this opportunity, he didn't dwell on that feeling for long and instead decided to copy it. While he had lost premium products that Andrew could provide, the mall idea could still be adapted.

What's more, he even rejoiced because he could adopt this idea at his expense, taking all the benefits for himself. Well, although he thinks of being the only winner of this idea, he knew that he should include his ministers, but, even so, he felt that he would gain a lot, so he called a meeting immediately.

Augustus is a smart man and although he knew that he couldn't count on Andrew's products, he had one option and that was to entice the joint venture of Patricia's son and her friends' husbands to set up a shop in the mall.

Although the goods are limited, just having them in his mall was already important. His intention was to use them as advertising and he quickly began to plan things.

He told his ministers what was happening and his plans. Everyone was surprised, as they did not expect such an innovative idea from the emperor, but he did not take credit for it and told them that it was all Andrew's idea and that he was implementing it in Dunnas.

This alerted the ministers, as they understood the implications. This meant that they were one step behind and that they had lost a lot by chasing Andrew out of the empire with their excessive suspicion of him.

Still, like the emperor, these men and women were not weak-minded and although they were at a disadvantage, they understood what the emperor wanted to do.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Copying the idea of ​​the shopping center was a good option. In fact, Marchioness Alcaly, minister of the national treasury, even had the idea of ​​adopting this shopping center at the national level.

This old woman is not the minister of the national treasury just because of her connections, but because she is a great merchant of the empire. She more than anyone understood how lucrative this project was and that's why she made a bold idea.

While they were behind Dunnas since the idea was Andrew's, the empire could get ahead if they adopted this project on a national level. First of all, the empire had much more money and power, so they could implement this more effectively than Dunnas.

The other advantage is that he had recently carried out a raid and expropriated many properties from the spies of the Badily kingdom, so they did not have to delay looking for land, so the emperor accepted the proposal immediately.

Andrew didn't know this, but even if he did he wouldn't care. It is true that for the empire this would show its power and maintain its superiority, the reality was that, without special products and stores, shopping centers would not be as profitable.

Just think about it, would merchants agree to move their businesses to a shopping center where they would have to spend money on rent to sell the same things they sell in the stores they own?

That is a bad move since they would only be paying more to sell the same thing. In Dunnas the matter is different because here they would have Andrew's special products, like the rejuvenating cream, clothing, or lingerie.

Even his sex toys could fall into this category, so the empire was making an aggressive but wrong move. The point is that Andrew didn't know about it and even if he did know, he wouldn't warn them, because he had no reason to after how they treated him.

Andrew who was still relaxing in the Star Palace was talking to Fluffy and looking at the system with the intention of buying some new things. He had accumulated many points and although they were not enough to buy the cameras and microphones necessary to start the porn movies, he did have enough for some beauty products, clothing designs, and lingerie.

He evaluated each of the products and bought 4 new things, not to mention that he also bought a crafting skill. Although this and the inventor's skills were similar because they were used to create things, the objects created were different.

As an inventor, he could buy plans for sexual devices such as the dildos and the bicycle he gave to Daphne, but as a crafting skill, he could buy plans for the creation of objects such as bracelets that increase the charm he had received from the system upon completing the first missions he carried out as a child.

These items were much more powerful and significant, but also more expensive and difficult to make. They were so complex that Andrew couldn't use his synthesis ability to make them.

This meant that he couldn't create them en masse, but with how powerful they were, there was no need to make them en masse, in fact, that would be counterproductive and dangerous.

If being able to create rejuvenating creams was already dangerous, as it created envy among people, just imagine that he could create objects of this type left and right.

The four things he bought were a design of a youth casual clothing set that consisted of tight shorts that enhance women's butts and a simple tank top.

This seems simple, but it doesn't change the fact that, on the right woman, they could be very erotic and sensual. He also bought a lingerie design that consists of a very revealing transparent lace babydoll. Enjoy new stories from empire

This design consisted of a transparent nightgown with lace that covered the breasts slightly, but which, when tightened behind the neck, made the breasts of the woman wearing them gather together and look larger than they were.

He also bought the recipe for a moisturizing cream. Although its function is to moisturize the skin, continuous use can repair imperfections and in a way, help rejuvenate the skin.

Although it had a lesser effect than the rejuvenating cream, it was more appropriate to use on the body, unlike the rejuvenating cream which has more effectivity on the face.

The last item he bought was the blueprint to create the cloth bracelet that increases the charm of the wearer by 50% over the opposite sex. Andrew had two of these that the system had given him as quest rewards a long time ago, but now he could do them on his own.

Obviously, this was not to be given to his wives at all, since they did not need it. The last thing he wanted was for his wives to be charming to other men because he had enough trouble with their natural beauties, he wanted them as a means to gain opportunities.

He didn't need them either, because as a candidate for god Eros, his charm was natural, but if he used them as a bargaining card, he was sure that he could gain many benefits. The only problem is that the process and materials were not simple.
