RISE OF EROS

Candice, who was holding her hands tightly against her forehead while trembling, looked up and, upon seeing Andrew, immediately threw herself into his arms with tears in her eyes.

The vision she had seen was too vivid, so her reaction was not strange, however, none of those present knew what was happening. Candice had refused to tell the others what she had seen, waiting for Andrew.

If Andrew was surprised to see her in that state before, now having her in his arms he was stunned. Candice is a strong woman who has been through many desperate situations, so seeing her like this shocked him.

"What happened? Who bullied you?" Andrew asked worriedly, but Candice only snuggled into his chest and shook her head slightly, as if trying to say that no one had bullied her.

Every second that passed, Andrew felt more confused and the other women present were in a similar situation. Andrew understood that Candice was very shocked, so it was not the time to ask.

He hugged her tenderly, trying to calm her down, which he managed after a few minutes. With Candice recovered, Andrew asked again, "What happened?", then Candice began to tell what she had experienced.

She recounted everything she had experienced in her vision. This surprised everyone, to the point that even Fluffy came forward to listen. It was not just any vision, it was the prophecy of the end of the world in essence.

At that moment, Andrew and Fluffy realized that Candice’s ability had evolved. She no longer only saw opportunities and threats but had become an oracle.

Oracles were rare. They were powerful abilities that allowed one to see possible futures. Candice is not the only one with this ability, however, being an awakened ability, thanks to Andrew’s divinity, made her much more powerful.

When everyone heard Candice’s story, they could understand the reason for her fear. She had seen the fall of the world, which hinted that they had failed in this battle.

The only thing that relieved them was that the future was changing and by knowing this vision, they could take action to change it. Andrew comforted Candice and also comforted his other wives who began to fear the worst upon hearing her.

Andrew assured them that this would not happen and then asked Oliver to summon Biacko, Lugia, and the other demigods. He may not trust the demigods as they had impure motives, but still, he could not leave them in the dark.

This was a critical situation and it was better to have more allies than enemies, so he called them as well. Biacko, Lugia, and the others soon arrived. It was not normal to be summoned by Andrew, so they did not dare to delay.

Emaliene also came and for the first time, they saw Andrew’s wives and guardians. It was not the time to hide them, so Andrew did not bother to do so, as there were more important things. With all the demigods gathered Andrew wasted no time and began to recount Candice’s vision. He first explained her ability, surprising everyone that she was an oracle.

This added much more seriousness to the discussion and as Andrew recounted the vision told by Candice, everyone’s expressions darkened. They did not doubt Andrew, as there was no reason to.

Many of them might not have gotten along with Andrew, but they understood that they needed to look at the bigger picture. When Andrew finished recounting what happened in Candice’s vision, silence fell over the office.

Everyone was digesting what they had been told. It wasn’t an easy thing to swallow, but they understood that they had to make a move or they would be in trouble. However, before any of them could say anything, Andrew pulled out Dustas’ diary.

He handed it to Biacko and said, "This is the diary of Dustas, former king of Tripia. It details some facts related to Purgatory. Including the location of some of his bases of operations."

Andrew’s words were like a sudden thunderclap. Biacko immediately opened the book and began to read. The other demigods approached him, to see what it said and quickly, they were shocked.

They never expected what it said and even though they had lived for a long time and had experienced many things, they never expected what the diary said to have happened. This only showed Purgatory’s influence and strength. It showed that their enemy had been sharpening their swords for a long time and their machinations were not simple.

Still, it was a gain, as they could now take some action. These bases may not be important anymore, but attacking them was still better than leaving them unchecked. Purgatory may have already evacuated those places, but they could always find more clues than they now had. Without delay, Biacko laid out a plan of attack.

His priority was to protect Andrew, so he could not lead this operation, so he sent the demigods present. Although he did not have the ability to order them, none of them refused.

Not only would this help them face the enemy, but it would earn them points with Andrew. On the other hand, although what they seek is divinity, they cannot give up on this world so easily.

It was not out of love, nor affection, but because of the fact that they did not yet have divinity secured. They still needed this world to survive, so they had no problem helping out. Still, Biacko sent some dragons to help. He couldn’t just let the matter go, so he sent a small group of dragons to help.

Without delay, the demigods left, while Biacko sent a message to Crhono. This was too important to not report. No one might know where Crhono was at the moment, but Biacko had ways to communicate with him, so he immediately set out to use them and tell him everything he had learned. From Candice’s vision, to Dustas’s diary.
