RISE OF EROS

Unexpectedly, the breaking of the second divine seal did not give Andrew as many benefits as the first did. In short, the only thing he achieved was an improvement in his current abilities, a greater amount of divinity and he broke the limit of a normal warrior by entering the ranks of experts.

While it may sound like there weren't many benefits, they were actually massive, except that by breaking the first seal, he also gained the ability to establish temples, and this time nothing like that happened, so he was a little disappointed.

Still, the improvements he made were substantial. Furthermore, his employees received a small improvement in their vitality and stamina just like last time.

The concubines and sexual friends were not very different from the employees, but when you approached the center of those close to Andrew things changed. Although there were no major changes, all of his wives increased their divinity and mastery of the skills they had acquired.

Candice, who was the only one who had not awakened an ability yet, finally obtained one and it is called "Eyes of Chance". Although it would perish from the name of it being similar to Andrew's Eros eyes or Oliver's aura eyes, it really wasn't similar at all.

The eyes of chance do not show the strength or intentions of others through the aura but instead, allow Candice to see what others cannot. For example, "See" an opportunity or threat of any kind.

With these eyes, she could discern things as if her intuition were that of a powerful expert and decide when to advance and when to retreat. Although it is a very complex ability to use, it is still extremely powerful.

His guardians also received a substantial increase in strength and their abilities also grew, but it was his children who received the greatest benefit, as the increase in divinity as infants would help them grow exceptional.

The employees of the Heavenly Palaces were not surprised to see the brilliance that emanated from them, as it had happened once, so they simply believed that Andrew had performed a ritual again to strengthen them, which left them happy and without questions.

His concubines and sexual friends were the ones who were surprised, but Andrew wouldn't bother to explain everything to them, he only told them that he had helped them strengthen their vitality and didn't explain anything else.

On the other hand, the breaking of the second divine seal did not go unnoticed by everyone in the city, since Arturios, who had ascended to the rank of demigod, could feel how the divinity gathered in the Heavenly Palace and this alarmed him.

He knew that only demigods could use divinity and in no case would it be as large an amount as the one that appeared when Andrew broke the seal, however, as it disappeared so quickly, he could not draw any conclusions.

Arturios checked the Heavenly Palace as if trying to find the divinity he had perceived, but it seemed to have disappeared in the same way he appeared, so he decided to pay more attention to Andrew and his companions, just in case.

After this incident, nothing abnormal happened. Everything remained the same as always and several weeks passed. Then the lost continent began to liven up, as all the exploration groups began to arrive at that place.

Like their Vacilea counterparts who arrived earlier, they were shocked at how desolate this land was. Almost all groups arrived simultaneously but in different parts of the continent.

The main group, which was made up of 100 warriors from different countries, landed on the coast closest to Vacilea, although it was a two-week boat trip away.

Since they had brought enough provisions to explore the lost continent for more than half a year, they did not rush to explore the place. They chose a place near the coast and set up camp.

Unlike the scouts sent by Vacilea before, this group was much more numerous and powerful, not to mention that they were not lax in security, so they set up defense formations and even had defensive magic artifacts.

In less than 3 days, they had set up a fortress near the coast where they landed. Although they did not have large fortifications, such as walls and so on, just the defensive formations and artifacts were enough for the camp to be protected.

After they prepared everything, they began the exploration. Obviously, all 100 of them would not go out together, since they were a large group and since they did not know each other, they could get in each other's way if they encountered danger.

In this way, they organized 5 groups of 20 people and moved separately. Each group had at least 5 super experts who, although they could not fight a demigod as they knew the rational abyssals were, could at least hold him back to escape.

These groups advanced in different directions, at a calm and careful pace, because they did not know what to expect. Like the Vacilea explorers, none of them experienced any problems for a week.

They began to believe that there was no life in this place and that the abyssal that came to Vacilea was a unique and special case. On the other hand, the different exploration groups sent by the great empires of the continent also made their moves.

Being small groups, they did not establish camps but rather embarked on exploring from the moment they arrived. What none of the exploration groups knew was that, in the sky, where they could not be seen, 4 black silhouettes with hair wings, and red eyes were observing everything.

"It seems your information is correct Cain. These bastards came like rats," said one of the abysmal humanoids, looking at another. This other abysmal humanoid named Cain was the one who destroyed the Vacilea explorers.

"How do we proceed? Shall we eliminate them?" Cain asked viciously. It was easy to see that he wanted to fight, but another of the abysmal said, "Let's them go a little further in and deal with them."

This abyssal was bigger and beefier, but his look of cruelty was no different from Cain's. His name is Appto and he is the leader of this small group. Not only was it because of his appearance, but he was considerably stronger than Cain.

Having agreed to this, the abyssal nodded and dispersed. They had already assessed the enemy forces and knew that they were not a threat to them, so they did not take them seriously.

What they did not realize was that in the shadows was hiding a robust man with long black hair, sharp eyes, and two horns on his head. This was a devil from the demon realm and he was a demigod.

Only the humans had gathered because of the Vacilea incident, as the other races were normally not friendly to the humans, however, when a meeting of all the leaders of the human countries was held, all the races became alert.

It was thanks to this that the countries dominated by demons, elves, dwarves, beastmen, and other races learned of the appearance of the abyssal and sent explorers on their own to the lost continent.

Unlike humans, the other races were not as numerous, but if you compare the number of experts, they were not far behind. For this reason, these races decided to send few but powerful explorers.

Taking this into account, the demon who observed the abysmal humanoids in the sky is a demigod, which is why he was able to hide from them. Although he was able to hide, this did not mean that he was stronger.

In fact, this was one of the reasons why this demon had a bitter expression, as he could tell that the weakest of the 4 abyssals was stronger than him.

The human leaders were too confident and did not send any demigods and that is why they were at a disadvantage, but the other races did send demigods and they were able to evaluate the situation better.

Both the abyssals and the humans followed their respective plans and when 2 weeks had passed the situation changed. The 4 humanoid abyssals led a group of beast-type abyssals to attack, and the battle was one-sided.

While the human scouts were very careful and did not fall into traps like the Vacilea scouts who had arrived before, the disparity in combat forces was substantial.

Although most of the human explorers were exterminated, some managed to escape. They knew they had to report their findings and that's why they ran away like crazy and some of them succeeded.

The battles also benefited the explorers sent by the other races, since they did not show themselves. They remained hidden, watching and evaluating the power of the abysmal and when their worst fears were confirmed they also left.

Weeks after this incident, the continent went into a state of panic, as news of the return of the abyssals had leaked and everyone was now worried about what the future held.

Andrew and the others also found out about this. Andrew, his wives, and his assistants who had little knowledge were ignorant of who the abyssals were, but Oliver was different and told them everything he knew.
