RISE OF EROS

Andrew was curious to know, so he asked, "Can you tell us your thoughts?", to which Oliver nodded and said, "They only have two options."

He paused and spoke again, "First, one of them suppresses the other and takes control of the organization. If this happens their strength will decrease, so they are not a threat."

Oliver paused again and Andrew, as if asking him to continue, looked at him intensely, so Oliver kept saying, "The other option is that they end up separating, creating two weaker organizations that will always be enemies, so they won\'t be one threat either".

"What you mean is that, right now, no matter what happens, the beauty hunters won\'t be a threat to us, right?" Andrew asked, wanting to confirm that he had understood everything.

"That\'s right. If the fight for power has already started, they won\'t bother us", Oliver concluded and almost at the same time Carolina and Helena breathed a sigh of relief, since they were the most concerned about the issue, since they were the objectives of this organization.

Andrew just nodded his head. Having everything clear, Andrew wanted to start the conversation about the visit of the son of Baron Castal, but before doing that he decided to activate his eyes of Eros.

Andrew\'s Eros\'s eyes after the upgrade had changed and had a similar function to Oliver\'s aura eyes, but were slightly stronger. Also, unlike Oliver\'s aura eyes which were always active and consumed a lot of energy, Eros\'s eyes could be turned on and off.

Oliver\'s aura eyes could see a strange layer of white mist around each person that allowed him to gauge that person\'s strength, but Eros\'s eyes were a bit different.

They could not only see this white mist but some additional colors, which represented the emotions or conditions that the person had. For example, When Andrew saw Carolina and Helena the mist around them was white and thin, but some branches of it extended like whips in Andrew\'s direction and were pink in color.

This meant that the two girls were completely in love with Andrew, which is why that pink mist was spreading in his direction. After assessing Carolina and Helena\'s aura, he looked at Aki.

Aki\'s aura was stronger than Carolina and Helena combined, which showed her power, but besides that, she also had some ramifications that extended towards Andrew which were silver in color and had some pink spots on the tip.

This shows Aki\'s loyalty to Andrew. Silver was the color of loyalty, the darker the more loyal that person was and the pink spots meant that Aki had some feelings of love towards Andrew, which surprised him a little.

Finally, Andrew looked at Oliver. Andrew\'s surprise could not be hidden and everyone in the office noticed Andrew\'s strange behavior, but if they had the eyes he had they would have been surprised too.

Oliver\'s aura wasn\'t a layer, it was a sphere. Of all the auras Andrew has seen so far, they all looked like a thin layer of white mist, but Oliver\'s was so thick that it formed a circle around him, showing that Oliver was incredibly strong.

In addition, he also had some silver-colored ramifications that pointed towards where Andrew was and they were even darker than Aki\'s. Seeing this, Andrew wanted to make sure he wasn\'t misunderstanding something and asked Fluffy.

"Does the slave contract influence the emotions that I can see with my Eros\'s eyes?", to which Fluffy immediately replied, "Master, the Eros\'s eyes are a divine ability, how can they be fooled by a contract of such a low level?

Receiving Fluffy\'s words, Andrew relaxed, for now, he could trust Oliver to be his staunch ally. You will wonder why he needed that if Oliver was his slave, well that was because Andrew planned to free him.

This decision was not something he had thought of at the time, but something he had discussed with Fluffy a while ago. More than a discussion, it was a proposal from Fluffy.

Fluffy knew that Oliver was powerful and that his master was worried about not having the strength to defend himself properly and more and more enemies appeared, so he proposed to Andrew that he release Oliver\'s slave contract.

Obviously, it wasn\'t to release him and let him do what he wanted but to change his status. The slave contract he was subjected to had its disadvantages and one of them was limiting the slaves\' potential, for this reason, Oliver would not get stronger or improve other skills.

That\'s why Fluffy proposed that he replace that slave contract and put the guardian seal on him. This seal could only be carried by those who are loyal to the god or candidate for the god of Eros, in this case, Andrew.

With that seal, Oliver could not only overcome his limitations but could even increase his power by leaps and bounds, not to mention other special abilities, he was the perfect bodyguard.

When Andrew heard Fluffy\'s proposal, he was tempted, but first, he had to check that Oliver was loyal to him and now he had, he was very happy.

However, he didn\'t do it right away, he would first talk about the topic at hand. Everyone present looked at Andrew with strange expressions because he had been looking at Oliver with a surprised face for a while and when Andrew realized he just coughed and changed the subject to hide his shame.

"Well, I brought you together because I have a matter to discuss with you. I closed a deal with Baron Castal this afternoon. His son has a similar problem to Johan\'s son and he wanted our help and I agreed ".

After saying this, Andrew paused and began to tell them about the talk he had had with the baron in Johan\'s shop. Carolina and Helena already knew the situation, so they didn\'t pay much attention, but Aki and Oliver were seriously holding the whole story in their heads.

When Andrew finished telling them everything he started the conversation about what he really wanted to talk about, "As you can see, nothing can go wrong and I need you to help me come up with a plan so accidents don\'t happen."

Following Andrew\'s conclusion, the office was silent for a few seconds until Oliver spoke, "Young master, to be honest, I have a plan that would meet your conditions, but we don\'t have the staff to carry it out."

Oliver\'s words surprised everyone and Andrew, a little impatient, asked, "What do you mean?" and Oliver replied, "Young master, for what I have in mind we need some people with abilities similar to Aki\'s."

Andrew immediately understood what he meant. He had wanted to create an intelligence network for some time and for that, he needed many people with such abilities, but it was difficult to find them the way he did with Aki.

Intelligence agents are basically assassins and people with those skills are generally cultivated from a young age, not because it\'s easier to become experts, but because of loyalty.

Aki was a coincidence, but Andrew couldn\'t expect to find many of them in the slave houses, so Andrew hadn\'t been able to achieve his goal.

Oliver noted that Andrew had realized the problem and that he also knew that it was not easy to build a team from scratch in a short time. Oliver had a plan to solve that problem, but he didn\'t know if the time was right to propose it.

The office had fallen silent once more, as the conversation had stalled. Everyone present was thinking of a possible solution, but nothing occurred to them.

Several minutes passed like this and Oliver began to remember all the time he had spent with Andrew. He was reassessing Andrew, to see if he would say his proposal now, but he was still undecided.

Oliver had a good impression of Andrew since he had treated him, the other slaves, and employees of the Heavenly Palace with respect and dignity, but the problem was that his proposal involved people outside the Heavenly Palace and he did not know how Andrew would react.

However, after considering it for a while, he made up his mind. He believed that Andrew would have no problem with what he would say, he had already recognized Andrew as his master and it had nothing to do with the slave contract, so he began to speak, "Young master, I have a proposal".
