RISE OF EROS

Aki's proposal seemed silly because who would think that a massage could be a bargaining chip? But everyone knew the magic of Andrew's divine message.

They even thought that if they submit to royalty at Andrew's hands, it wouldn't be strange if they made him a noble just to force him to massage the royal family regularly.

That's how powerful his abilities were. Just think about it, you could receive a massage that not only relaxes you but also helps you recover, helps rejuvenate your cells, and part of all of that, gives you so much pleasure that you reach orgasm. Who wouldn't want it?

If it were his past life, Andrew wouldn't even consider it, but in this world and with his divine massage technique, the question was not whether it would work or not, but how many massages a month he had to negotiate.

Then the surreal discussion of negotiating a stake in the shopping center project in exchange for massages began. Although Andrew was convinced that this proposal would work, the others were arguing fervently over the conditions.

Then, a question that seemed taken from the dimension of madness appeared from Helena's mouth, "And what happens, if royalty demands Andrew as a husband or concubine?"

This question silenced the office. Although it seemed crazy, it really wasn't because, if it was being discussed that through the message they could make Andrew a noble to gain certain rights over him, then they could enter him into the royal harem, or worse, they could demand him as a husband.

You have to know that Andrew has all the characteristics of an ideal man for the nobility and royalty of Dunnas. He's young, good-looking, wealthy, with a lot of new ideas and those characteristics still didn't match the credentials in the pleasure department.

Andrew's wives were thoughtful about the problem since it was not a problem of whether they added a new sister since there were rules different from theirs governing the Dunnas royalty.

If this were to happen, Andrew could not keep his harem. In Dunnas, unlike other countries, royalty is strict with couples, as the line of succession must be clear.

In most countries on the continent, kings or emperors could have concubines, as their children are simply removed from the line of succession to the throne, but in Dunnas, the rulers are women.

Although they can do the same, if the queen or royal woman becomes pregnant, she still has to carry the pregnancy for 9 months and that would harm the woman's reproductive life, so the Dunnas royalty only allowed having one husband.

In fact, they did not even allow a woman to remarry if her husband died or suffered an accident. Only if she is the queen and she has no successor when her husband disappears from the equation, she is allowed to look for another husband. Discover hidden content at empire

For these reasons, this situation raised by Helena is problematic. Still, Andrew dismissed her with a simple solution, "I don't think you should worry, I just have to refuse."

Everyone in the room frowned at him as if seeing an idiot. Andrew had no idea why they were looking at him like that and Candice, letting out a resigned sigh, began to explain.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Honey, you are so smart about many things, I don't know how you can't see the problem," she began to say and then added with a bit of irritation in her tone, "Do you think you can so bluntly reject the royalty of a country?".

Then Andrew understood the implications. While it is true that he could refuse, that would be an insult to royalty and then they would do the opposite of what they wanted, that is, they would turn those they were trying to gain as support into enemies.

Andrew never thought he would have to discuss a topic like this and not wanting to say something stupid again, he stopped talking and waited for his wives and the others to find a solution.

At this time, Oliver gave a simple solution, "What the young master proposed is not entirely wrong, but we would have to change the execution." Hearing these words, all eyes focused on him.

Noting that everyone was waiting for him to expand, Oliver said, "What needs to be done is for the young master to show up to the meeting with the ladies or some of you and before starting to discuss, present you as his wives."

Seeing that not everyone understood his idea, Oliver continued to explain, "If he introduces you as his wives from the beginning, they will know that he is a married man and he will avoid being seen as a candidate for a partner."

"Well, that's a simple solution, but I think it can work," Gaston agreed, but Helena, who seemed inspired to find the flaws in their plans, raised a situation again, "And what if despite that, they decide to impose themselves?"

Again the office fell silent and Helena continued saying, "It's not abnormal for royalty to become intransigent on some things and if they take a liking on Andrew, they wouldn't mind ripping him away from us to have him for themselves."

Everyone fell into deep thought again and Andrew, not being able to take it anymore, said a little irritably, "So we ran away and settled in Tampilla." They looked at him badly again, but Andrew could no longer bear to talk about this and concluded, "If we start speculating, there will be no end to everything that can happen. Besides, we don't even know if they will meet us."

Although they didn't want to accept it, what Andrew said was true, so they left that topic and focused on how to negotiate the project if the meeting took place, which made Andrew sigh in relief.

He couldn't believe that they even had to talk about the topic they had just left behind and it was then that it dawned on him, "This world is really something else."

After a long and extensive meeting, they finished, and after eating they prepared for the opening of Dunnas Palace for business. However, going back a while to when Victoria left, she got into her carriage and immediately went to the royal castle of Dunnas.

Although she had arrived unannounced, thanks to her relationship with the queen's mother, she was allowed entry. If it were a meeting with the current queen, it would be difficult to be granted the audience unannounced unless it was an emergency, but the retired queen's mother was different.

Although she was still closely linked to the country's politics because she just recently handed over the crown. Her agent is much more flexible than her daughter, the current queen of the country.

Victoria entered the castle guided by the same maid from the last time and was taken to the room from the last time. It wasn't that the queen's mother always met her guests there, but for the people she was close to, she usually did and Victoria was one of them.

The queen's mother and Victoria have a fairly intimate relationship, having known each other since they were young. Victoria's mother was the queen's mother's mentor, so Victoria is like a niece to her.

Their relationship is so close that the current queen considers Victoria a cousin and they even studied together. Their relationship is so close that Victoria was asked to be a minister on many occasions, but she rejected the offer, as she prefers to be a free spirit.

When she entered the room, she found the queen's mother and the trusted maid from before. The queen's mother was sitting drinking tea and eating some snacks and the servant was standing to the side waiting for an order.

"Greetings, Queen Mother," Victoria said, bowing a little respectfully. Despite the closeness she has with her, Victoria is always formal with her, because she does not want to generate any misunderstanding.

"Victoria, I told you that when we are alone and it is not official business, you can call me Aunt Daphne," the queen's mother said with mock reproach. Victoria was embarrassed by the queen's mother's claim, but she quickly replied, "Well, I'm here on business."

Hearing this, Daphne became serious. This was a characteristic that she adopted at the time of her governance and she maintains to this day. She was an expert at changing her attitude depending on the situation, so when Victoria said that she was coming for business, there was only seriousness in her expression.

Victoria immediately noticed the change and she too became serious. Daphne offered her a seat and after she sat down Daphne asked, "So, what business?"

The maid served Victoria tea and retired to her stall. Victoria was not worried that the servant would listen, because this woman is not as simple as she seems. She is the Demon equivalent in Cannaris for Dunnas.

Although she spent the most time with Daphne than with the current queen, that did not mean that she did not take care of the affairs of the kingdom, it was just that she knew how to distribute her staff, in addition, she is an old friend of Daphne so she prefers to be by her side.

"The device provider wants a hearing with you," Victoria said without mincing words. With those words, not only did Daphne wrinkle her eyebrows, but the servant present did too and Victoria, knowing that they had misinterpreted her words, explained.

"He doesn't know it's you, but he knows you are royalty. What happens is that he has a business proposal and he wants to discuss it in person since he needs the support of royalty," Victoria clarified.

The room fell silent and then Daphne asked, "Do you know what the proposal is?", to which Victoria responded without hesitation, "Yes." "Then why does he need to meet?" Daphne asked again.

"I can't tell you that. At least not yet," Victoria responded, knowing it might upset the woman in front of her. Fortunately, Daphne understands the weight of a merchant's word and sensed that Victoria had given her word to the other party, so she asked, "What's your recommendation?", and again without hesitation again Victoria responded, "You should meet him".
