RISE OF EROS

My level had increased from 15 to 18, which wasn't much, but the biggest surprise was when I saw the points I got, because they weren't as many as I thought.

I currently had 35,520 points, that is, I had gained about 28,395 points, but I had been doing kinky things with girls almost every day for about 3 months, so I thought it was a few points.

However, Fluffy explained the reason to me. It turns out that Atna and the girls being courtesans are basically my property, so they don't deny my wishes, so their situation is similar to the servant I blackmailed before.

To put it simply, although the girls give me regular points, the amount is small due to our relationship. Honestly, that bothered me, but I put it aside and started looking through the system store for something I could buy.

It was clear to me that this area and this business were not peaceful, problems were never lacking, and although I had guards, I did not feel completely safe, so I decided to buy something that would help me in a moment of danger.

I asked Fluffy if there were any skills that would help me in combat, but to my disappointment I still couldn't access those kinds of skills, to be more exact, I didn't have the points to buy them.

My problem lay in the fact that, being a candidate for the God of love, sex and eroticism, my battle skills are not my specialty, so the system does not provide basic options, but secret and powerful techniques, which makes them very expensive and inaccessible to me at the moment.

While seriously thinking about what to do, Fluffy spoke, "Master wants a method to protect himself, right? You don't need to become powerful yourself for that". Fluffy's comment snapped me out of my thoughts, but now I just had confusion, so I decided to ask, "What do you mean?"

"Exactly what I said, you don't need to be strong to protect yourself, not all gods are combative or have abilities of that type, so how do you think they survive?", Fluffy's question confused me even more and seeing that, he continued, "Master, everyone has special abilities focused on their virtues to protect themselves".

At that moment, everything clicked. It certainly didn't have to be a powerful fighter, but rather have an ability that protects me in some way, and understanding that, I asked Fluffy, "What kind of abilities of that type can I use?"

A few seconds after my question, Fluffy showed me a screen listing various options. To my misfortune they were all expensive, but there was one I could buy, it cost 30,000 points, and it was called [Sinful Illusion].

As its name says, it consists of the ability to create an erotic illusion that will affect anyone who is within a 5-meter radius of me. It's certainly not the best attack ability, but it will allow me to stop an enemy for a moment, which I can use to run away or counterattack.

After purchasing it, I immediately understood how it worked, as well as its limitations.

The time that a person remains trapped in the illusion depends on the mental strength of the affected part, although it is true that in this world there are very physically powerful people, the mind is different, so stopping a powerful being for 10 seconds is not it would be a problem, that's enough time to do a lot of things.

Also, I couldn't use the skill more than 3 consecutive times either, as I would fall unconscious from exhaustion. Other than that, there were no other drawbacks, which I was satisfied with my new ability.

With everything ready, night arrived, and it was time to start the parade of courtesans to promote the brothel.

It was close to 8 pm when the activity of the red-light district was in full swing, all the girls dressed in elegant and provocative dresses walked through the main streets of the district attracting the eyes.

They weren't the most beautiful courtesans, but somehow they had a certain appeal. Sonia overflowed with an aura of arrogant nobility, but she did not provoke rejection, quite the contrary, she had a certain attraction.

Dami and Sally, acting like innocent girls, somehow awakened in the nearby men the desire to protect them.

Atna and Kidy, only smiled throwing provocative glances warming the atmosphere. Oliver and the other 4 slaves that I bought were protecting them, José and Carlos were in the brothel as guards. All the staff had gone into alert mode, today was the first day, and it was important that it be a success.

Soon the girls appeared, escorted by Oliver and the others into the brothel. About 15 minutes the parade lasted, it didn't have to be too long as it would only tire the courtesans, and they wouldn't be able to do their job afterward, plus I wanted to make an instant impact.

The effect was achieved, because 10 minutes after the girls returned, the first customers appeared. One by one, they arrived, Víctor received them with grace and great professionalism. Most were ordinary citizens with a little extra money.

Most of them did not have enough money to pay for the services of the courtesans of the Heavenly Palace, but drinking and eating in their company was not impossible, and that was what they had come for.

All this was achieved thanks to the impeccable work of Víctor.

In a few minutes of interaction, he discovered what the clients were looking for, and knowing that, Carolina informed Sonia and the others, so they would not force the clients to use their services, but instead concentrate on getting all the money for food and drinks.

It's a little cruel, but that's the way these businesses work, it takes profit and the girls take care of it. Upon receiving Carolina's message, the girls began to put their training into practice.

Each acted according to the role assigned to her, and the variety of personalities charmed the patrons, who gladly ate and drank to excess.

The night passed without incident and a couple of hours after midnight the last customer left. The girls didn't have to render their services, but they performed wonderfully as chaperones, so I congratulated them, and allowed them to go to rest.

While they went to rest, the rest of the staff carried out a simple cleaning, since Julia and Andrea would arrive in the morning to clean thoroughly, and Carolina accompanied me to the office to review the day's accounts.

When I hired her, I had given Carolina 300 small gold coins for business use, and to date about half of them had been consumed, so profit should be generated today.

Obviously it was clear that it would not be a big profit, certainly there were many customers, and they ate and drank a lot, but the reality was that the food and drink of the Heavenly Palace is not very expensive.

Since no one used the night services of the courtesans, they did not have many earnings as we expected.

However, to my surprise, the evening's earnings came to 1 large silver coin, 3 small silver coins and 57 small copper coins, which is not a small amount of money for a night without even taking advantage of the courtesan's night service, which is the most expensive.

Both Carolina and I were happy, although it wasn't much, it was a good start, and that could only excite us with what the future would bring, so optimistic we went to sleep, since it was only the first day, and the days that followed were the real battlefield.
