RISE OF EROS

Although Douma is a high-level demigod who has shed most worldly concerns, he is still one of the guardians of the barbarians.

While he is known as the guardian of Star City, in reality, Douma is a guardian of the race, as he is one of the most powerful entities in the existence of this race.

For this reason, he still cares about the well-being of the barbarians, especially the survival of the race. The barbarians, like the Amazons, had experienced a decrease in the birth rate of their least favored gender.

For the barbarians, the birth of women was scarce and for the Amazons, the birth of men had also decreased. Make no mistake, this does not mean that there were few barbarian women or Amazon men, just that, in each generation, fewer of them were born.

A crisis may not arise in the coming centuries, but the problem could already be seen, so it was better to deal with it. While they could have offspring with other races, for some reason, barbarians were born less frequently.

They did not understand the reason, since barbarian genes are quite dominant and generally take control of the offspring, but several decades ago they noticed that the opposite was happening.

It didn't matter if the barbarians mixed with humans, elves, or even dwarves, the offspring generally leaned towards the other race, which had the barbarians very worried.

If things continued like this, that could cause the race to become extinct. The Amazons suffered a similar situation, however, the appearance of Andrew with the ability to unite the barbarians and the Amazons opened new paths.

Although it may seem strange, this world had a strange design. Although the barbarians and the Amazons are two different races, they somehow seemed made for each other.

It wasn't just because they lived nearby 1,000 years ago that these two races were constantly joined together in marriage, but somehow their unions solved this problem they were facing.

It was as if the Amazon women were the perfect women for the barbarians and vice versa. For this reason, Elder Anka's question caught Douma's attention.

As the elder Anka had these same concerns for the Amazons she posed the question and Andrew, facing the gaze of the two elders, began to think about how to handle the matter.

It wasn't difficult for him to bring the Amazons or even the barbarians to the black forest, but there were many things to consider. While he treated these races with appreciation, because they had supported him, he also knew that it was all for profit.

Both the barbarians and the Amazons wanted to maintain their bloodline and therefore supported Andrew, but in turn, Andrew benefited from this support and could not solve the problem immediately.

Although the barbarians had adapted to their life in the desert and the Amazons to the forest, it was not difficult for Andrew to lead one group of them to the other, but if he solved the problem at its root, then they would no longer have any need to support Andrew.

Douma and Anka understood this. If Andrew brought all the Amazons here or if he brought all the barbarians to the black forest, they wouldn't need him anymore and while they knew he was a god candidate, they didn't have to give him so much face.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Andrew is still very weak, so they could easily oppose him, so Andrew decided to bring in small groups from time to time so that this situation would not get out of control.

After thinking about all this he said, "Well, I can bring a group of Amazons in two weeks." Anka and Douma looked at him with furrowed eyebrows, not understanding the reason for the long period of time.

They understood that Andrew wanted to maintain the status quo, but it shouldn't be so extreme. Understanding their thoughts, Andrew began to explain, "I have some pending matters to take care of and I can only bring them in two weeks."

Although the elders were not entirely convinced, they had no choice but to accept. Although Andrew was cautious, the reality was that Douma or Anka had no intentions of going against him.

Andrew didn't know it, but even if he solved the root of the problem, he would still receive the treatment he had received until now. Unlike humans, barbarians and Amazons are races that value their words.

Perhaps this is lost in time, but a millennium ago, it was common knowledge that there were no allies more valuable than the barbarians and the Amazons.

They are one of the most difficult races to make friends with being from another race, but when you do, they will never betray you. Unfortunately, Andrew was unaware of this and proceeded with caution.

With this matter finished, Douma and Anka left and Andrew and his guardians did the same after talking with Dino for a while. Upon returning to Dunnas Palace, all of Andrew's wives and his other close friends came to ask what had happened.

Andrew was not stingy and told them everything that happened, with Oliver, Castor, and Sansa adding the details he had left out. As they listened, some of them worried about the new enemy they had made, but when they heard that the barbarians were backing them up, they calmed down.

In fact, the Star City, which was initially the most insecure of their bases, could now be considered the safest since no one dared to go against the barbarians there and from the display demonstrated tonight, it was obvious that Andrew was protected by them.

Meanwhile, inside the Wizard Union base, the five elders who confronted Oliver and the others threw the three wizards who had been causing trouble into the Heavenly Palace and without any warning rudely woke them up.

The three magicians looked at the place they were in bewildered, but upon noticing the 5 elders, they immediately knelt down and respectfully said in unison, "Greetings to the senior elders."

Normally, these elders gloat when lower-level mages pay their respects and obeisances, but this time it was not the case. They were upset with these three, for the trouble they caused.

In fact, they had an immense desire to kill them, but they needed answers so they repressed their anger and tried to act calmly. Then one of the elders asked, "Tell us, what happened?"

The three magicians, despite their arrogance, knew that in the presence of these elders, it was suicide to act arrogant, so they humbly began to tell what had happened.

Obviously, they didn't tell the whole truth. They were arrogant, not stupid. They knew that the reason they were in the presence of these old people who usually don't see anyone, was because something important had happened.

The three immediately understood that their actions at the Star Palace had caused great problems and, as if reading each other's thoughts, they invented a story as if they had been the victims.

You had to admit that these guys were too clever, because not only did they invent a story out of nothing in total coordination, but they didn't exaggerate things much, to make it seem believable.

Although the elders did not fully believe them, they had no way to get the truth out of them, but at that moment an aged voice was heard from the shadows, "No matter what happened, if you tell the truth, we will give them a small punishment, but if you hold what you said to be true, you will die."

The three wizards were shocked upon hearing these words. Their bodies trembled, because, although the voice was soft and ancient, they could feel an incomparable power in it.

Not even the 5 elders together made them feel so afraid. Furthermore, the 5 elders immediately bowed and said, "Greetings to the great wizard." These words made the 3 wizards fear because although they had never met him, they knew who he was.

Apart from the members of the Wizard Union, few know of the existence of this person the elders called "Great Wizard", but within the Wizard Union, everyone knew that he is the highest authority of the organization.

Generally, the 5 supreme elders are the ones who manage everything, but all magicians know that there is still someone more powerful above them. Faced with the threat of this voice, the three wizards poured out the truth.

The 5 elders looked at them with disdain when they found out that the whole problem was caused by such childish actions and wanted to kill them on the spot, but with the presence of the great wizard, they asked for his opinion.

No one can see him, but everyone knows he is there. The silence lasted for a few minutes, making the three magicians sweat profusely, but after the agonizing wait the voice sounded again, "Destroy their magical source and deliver them as a peacemaker to that Star Palace."

Those words were a death sentence for the three wizards who immediately began to ask for mercy, but no one listened to them anymore. One of the five elders waved his hand and 3 beams of energy shot out, hitting the three unfortunate men, and rendering them unconscious. Now they were ordinary people.
