RISE OF EROS

CHAPTER 364



After a few days and even though the establishment of the Star Palace was already cleaned, repaired, and decorated, Andrew did not leave the place even to look for courtesans and start the business.

He knew that Star City had many peculiarities and he didn't want to jump in headfirst without first investigating things better. Although it was a prudent move, it was a late one because, by the time he bought and registered a business, he was already in the sights of many people.

Visiting Star City is not strange for travelers and merchants, but buying property and establishing a business are different things, especially when they are humans and it is in the entertainment industry.

Since the medicine, commerce, and craft industries were divided between the apothecaries' guild, the merchant consortium, and the blacksmith community respectively, the entertainment sector is the only one that has little oversight, so this is where you can meet all the forces with ambitions to escape the controlling eye of these powerful organizations.

For this same reason, when a new player appears, these organizations become alert. In fact, it was not only these three organizations that had their eye on Andrew and his companions, but the barbarians were also keeping an eye on them.

Andrew and the others had no idea that they were in the sight of many powerful people, so they continued carrying out their activities without leaving the establishment.

In fact, they were not inside the Star Palace, because as they were waiting for Shadow's agents to return with information, they had moved to the other palaces to conduct business.

Candice and Carolina had made great progress in their businesses within the Dunnas kingdom. Even Candice had taken advantage of her great negotiating skills to help Victoria find a business opportunity that made her win a lot of money.

Victoria was so excited and surprised that she immediately ran to Andrew to ask if he could give her Candice as a worker, which Andrew found hilarious, because how could he give his wife away?

She insisted and even offered great benefits, but Andrew still refused. Victoria was upset because Andrew didn't budge on this issue, not even a little, which seemed strange to her, but Andrew didn't explain.

Although she left upset, Andrew did not relent. He also did not tell her that Candice and Carolina were his wives because although it was not something to hide, it was less problematic if she did not know this information.

Victoria is a noble and key ally in the kingdom of Dunnas. Although she was tamed by Andrew's message, it wasn't as if she would obey him at all, since she hadn't lost her free will or anything like that.

For this reason, Andrew didn't want her to be upset if she found out that he had wives. Andrew may have been overthinking this, but he still didn't want to risk it. Discover hidden stories at empire

Although Candice and Carolina were the most active of the entire group, whether opening new businesses or creating products through alchemy, the others were not idle either.

Helena, who was now in charge of managing the staff of all of Andrew's businesses, was implementing new training for the upcoming events that would be held in the different establishments.

Aki continued with her fierce training, as she wanted to get stronger quickly and her efforts had paid off, as she was one step away from reaching the expert level.

Gastón, Erick, Canna, Vala, and Marie, had distributed themselves according to what they had discussed the previous time and were developing their skills while fulfilling their obligations.

In the empire of Cannaris, everything was calm, because thanks to Patricia, Marín, Carla, Neris, Sara, and their families, the 3 viscounts who previously tried to repress them had been reprimanded and no one was creating problems for them anymore.

Andrew also fulfilled his agreement and gave them the same amount of rejuvenating and tissue repair creams that Candice's store sold in a month and these 5 families created a joint company to trade these products.

Not wanting to be greedy, they adopted the prices that Candice offered in her store because although they could make them more expensive and they would still sell, they would generate a bad reputation and that would make enemies, something they did not want.

Although they adopted Candice's store prices, they did not adopt her sales methodology. Candice's store used the method established by Andrew of limiting the quantities sold per person, since Andrew wanted his products to become popular, not to make a lot of money from them, at least not at this time.

However, Orom, Marín's husband, would not fail to take advantage of this opportunity to establish connections. He proposed to his partners to use these products to establish connections with some noble and powerful families.

The others immediately agreed because they are all nobles and among nobles, it is best to have allies, the more the better. For this reason, although the prices were the same, they selectively chose their clients.

Finally, Andrew spent his days visiting all of his businesses, to see how everything was working. Andrew hadn't realized it, but he had created a business group, a fairly large one.

He has two Heavenly Palaces in full operation and one waiting to start. He owns the Paradise pleasure house that Nadila manages, he has the massage house and although it is not his property, the pleasure house owned by Yuri is practically part of his assets.

When he realized this, he couldn't help but be amazed at how much he had accomplished since he helped Emilse in the city of Calci divorce her husband Doldo.

Remembering this, he became curious about what had happened to these people's lives and not wanting to be left with intrigue, he sent an agent of Shadow to the city of Calci to see what had happened to Emilse and Doldo.

This was really just a whim for him since it was not necessary to know about the lives of two people with whom he no longer has any relationship, but for some reason, curiosity got the better of him and he sent the agent to look.

Everyone was confused upon hearing what Andrew had done, but no one dared to ask. Not even Castor, who seemed to have no qualms about getting into delicate topics with him, asked.

None of them knew about Andrew's beginnings, but Castor was different. He is his childhood friend, so he has known him since he was little and has seen him grow up. Although he also does not know the story of Emilse and Doldo in its entirety, he does have an idea.

Castor belonged to one of the slum gangs in the city of Calci and had some power within this gang, so when Andrew left town so abruptly, he suspected something had happened, so he did some investigating.

Although he couldn't discover the whole story, he knew that Andrew had worked on Doldo's ranch and a few months after being promoted, he left town and Emilse and Doldo divorced.

It was obvious that something fishy was going on and you'd have to be stupid not to notice the fact that these two breaking up and Andrew running away from the city were related.

Andrew also said nothing regarding that and simply continued with his business, until Shadow's agents in Star City returned to the Heavenly Palace to report his findings.

Unexpectedly, these agents had returned with very important information. Andrew didn't ask how, but Shadow's agents had managed to find out that the big groups in the city had their sights set on them.

The agents explained the reasons and Andrew couldn't help but be surprised. He now understood that he was still treating this city like any other city and that was a problem because here, the situation was different.

Although powerful groups targeted them, this did not mean that they were an enemy, just that they were being watched, so Andrew thought that as long as he dedicated himself to his business, he would have no problems.

Shadow agents also managed to find information on several groups other than the big 5 that need attention. There are no nobles in this city, so the organizations are the ones that run the city.

Apart from the big 5, 3 other organizations had great power within the city. The first is the "Church of Life", which, being a religious organization that focuses on teaching the ways of life and healing, has a power that is not inconsiderable, not to mention that a church in a city like this was strange.

The second organization is the "Mage Union", which as its name suggests is a group focused on protecting the interests of magicians and although its activities are a bit unknown, its strength is said to be no less than that of the Big 5.

The third and final organization is the most dangerous of all and is the "Society of Assassins". This organization is hidden, no one knows how many members they have, or where their base is, but everyone claims that it exists, which is worrying.
