After a somewhat strange and awkward farewell, Andrew and Oliver left Candice's store and unlike their arrival, they preferred to walk to the Heavenly Palace.On their walk back, Oliver could not hold back his curiosity and asked, "Young master, what are your intentions with Miss Candice?". At Oliver's sudden question, Andrew didn't know what to answer. To be honest, Andrew got carried away by the situation and ended up asking Candice out on a date, but it was really an impulse, he still wasn't entirely sure if he wanted to become a couple with her. After thinking for a moment Andrew responded somewhat unsure, "I really don't know. I feel like Candice has an interest in me and I let myself get carried away, but I'm still not clear if it will turn into something more. I'll let time decide." Andrew's strange answer, left Oliver confused, but he still tried to understand the situation, so he said what he had understood from Andrew's words, "You mean, that you'll try and see what happens?". This time Andrew casually replied, "Something like that." Seeing that Andrew himself didn't seem to know what he wanted, Oliver stopped probing. After walking for several minutes, Oliver spoke again, "We're still being followed by someone, but he's pretty amazing, as he keeps his distance so I don't find out where he is." Hearing this, Andrew furrowed his eyebrows, as he didn't like the feeling of being watched, although if Oliver hadn't said it he wouldn't have noticed, but Oliver always kept him informed. Andrew tried not to worry about the watcher and continued on his way to the Heavenly Palace. While in Candice's office, Gaston was questioning his boss in the same way Oliver was questioning Andrew. "Miss, is it wise to enter into a relationship with Mr. Andrew?" to which Candice casually replied, "Weren't you the one who told me it was a good match?". "That was before things got this complicated," Gaston replied with a mumbled expression, but Candice didn't seem to notice her subordinate's concern and replied, "We're already in the same boat, I don't think the situation will get any worse. Besides, it's only one meal, don't overthink things." Gaston sighed at Candice's response and took his leave. He was no fool and knew it wasn't just a meal. He knew his boss very well and knew she wouldn't accept a date so casually, but there was nothing he could do, so he said no more. Andrew and Oliver returned to the Heavenly Palace and immediately called Castor into the office. There, Andrew explained everything to Castor because as Andrew's trusted friend, he deserved to know what he was getting into. After finishing the whole story, Castor couldn't help but express, "Bro, you really are in a complicated situation," to which Andrew responded with a wry smile, "You can't imagine." When they finished talking, everyone went back to their activities and Andrew went to find Carolina, as she had locked herself in the lab again. He was beginning to feel that Carolina's new ability was more of a curse than a blessing. While he was on his way to the lab, on the other side of town in the commercial region, Johan had just received several carrier pigeons, all with the same message. They were all informing him of the order received from the king not to intervene in his dispute with Andrew. Johan, upon reading the messages, was quite discouraged, since he wanted to use the support of the nobles to pressure Andrew, but now, it was clear to him that Andrew had more powerful connections than him and that worried him. Meeting in the office with his trusted butler he asked, "What do you think?" to which the butler replied after a few minutes of deep thought, "I think it best to compromise and resolve everything peacefully." "Even if it is for only one year, the fact that he could make this request directly to the king, is worrisome, we could suffer a lot if we continue to pursue the matter," the butler added. Johan fell into deep thought. He had the same thoughts as his butler because a direct order from the king was not something to be taken lightly. Unbeknownst to Andrew or Candice, the mere news that the nobles were to be restrained, caused Johan to become engaged. Certainly, he was greedy, but not stupid and would rather make a small profit, than risk death for a larger gain. Thus, before the war started, Johan had already surrendered, but Andrew and Candice did not know it yet. While everyone was thinking about their next moves, Dino had arrived at the city where he was about to buy the materials ordered by Andrew. Since it was a medium-sized city, he was able to get the dimensional bag and materials with relative ease, but as he was about to leave, a conversation caught his attention. The city he was in was relatively close to the marquisate of Cupal and so news that the beastmen were under attack could already be heard amidst rumors. Intrigued by the news Dino, he used his skills as an intelligence agent and listened to what the men were talking about in hushed tones. Thanks to that he learned that there was a group of foreign knights that had invaded the western savannas and massacred several villages. Although that had nothing to do with him, his habits as an intelligence agent led him to collect as much information as he could, after all, maybe for him, it was not important, but maybe for his boss, it might be different. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. For this reason, Dino took longer than he should have in the city. He too had not noticed that he had been followed by one of Raven's companions. There seemed to be conspiracies everywhere. When night fell, Dino returned to the Heavenly Palace and reported everything he had learned about the beastmen, and that intrigued Andrew, Oliver, and Castor. Although they didn't know if they could get anything out of this information, still, they kept it in mind, because you never knew what could happen. The Heavenly Palace was in full swing during the evening. The dance room was packed with patrons and even several private booths were occupied. However, that did not mean that the reception hall where the other courtesans operated was empty. The red light district had regained its vitality, so the influx of people was huge and the Heavenly Palace was the most visited in the area. In the Heavenly Palace office, Dino, Oliver, and Castor had already left, leaving Andrew alone with their wives. Although the news of the beastmen had surprised them, they didn't think much of it and preferred to occupy their time having fun. Since Carolina had been getting a lot of love from Andrew during the day, Helena and Aki were unhappy, so Andrew had to satisfy them. Carolina didn't mind, because every time Andrew went to visit her in the lab, they had sex, so she didn't participate in the nightly activities. While Carolina stayed in the office going over her theories and studies, in the bedroom Andrew played with Helena and Aki. Helena who had awakened a strange taste for rough sex, was being hammered by Andrew, while he spanked her from time to time. Aki was not idle either, as Helena was sucking her pussy while Andrew fucked her from behind in a doggy position. After making her cum, Andrew let Helena rest and proceeded to service Aki. Although Helena had awakened her taste for rough sex, she was still not as daring as Aki in this regard. The little assassin was a full-fledged masochist and that's why Andrew didn't hold back. After a couple of hours of intense activity, Aki and Helena lost consciousness, while bathed in Andrew's white seed. Proud of his work, Andrew went to the bathroom to clean himself and left the room once he had cleaned himself and changed clothes. There he found Carolina immersed in her notes and with a dark expression he had to pull her out of that state. "Fluffy, how long will this last? It's really starting to worry me," Andrew said with annoyance, but Fluffy didn't answer him. Andrew understood that the silence of his divine beast meant that he couldn't do anything and that irritated him more. Carolina could notice her husband's irritation, but she didn't say anything, as she didn't want to start a fight. As the eerie silence stretched into the office, a knock on the door was heard. "Young master, you have a visitor," Victor's voice could be heard. Although Andrew thought it strange, he allowed entry. Victor entered and quickly reported, "Young master, one of Mr. Alfi's friends who visited us a while ago requests to speak with you." Andrew was surprised to hear who was looking for him but then furrowed his brows because with Alfi had come several young men and he did not know which of them had come. This put him in a difficult situation, as his relationship with Johan was strained and he didn't want to mix at this time with people who were friends with Johan's son. Unfortunately, he could not refuse him either, as all these young men were of high status and he did not want to add more enemies, so he told Victor to let him in. Victor quickly left to guide the guest and in a few minutes he was back with a young man. This young man was none other than the heir to the most prominent hotel chain in the empire.
