RISE OF EROS

With the four designs purchased, Andrew began planning his meeting with Candice despite the fact that their meeting was still nearly a full week away.

The creation of the costumes was quite simple, since having all the raw materials it would be as simple as using the sewing and synthesis skills to produce several versions.

The first thing he did was write down on a piece of paper all the materials he needed. Certainly, the names were different from the ones in the world where he live before, but in the end, its qualities and functions were the same.

Even though the four purchased designs spent most of Andrew's points, which were several million. These designs were quite simple, yet attractive and elegant.

After writing down all the materials he needed, he called Carolina. After a few minutes, Carolina entered the office and asked, surprised, "Did you call me?"

Their confusion wasn't unreasonable, since normally at this time, Andrew was concentrating on doing the accounts and Carolina was supervising the operations of the Heavenly Palace, so they usually didn't get together unless they were going to discuss something special.

"In a week we will have the meeting with Candice and I need these materials for the dresses that I will show her. Can you pass it on to Victor and have him buy them please?" Andrew said with a fond smile.

Carolina took the paper that Andrew passed her and reviewed the materials. It was nothing complicated, just a variety of different colored threads and fabrics.

Carolina knew that Andrew didn't need things like needles or other tools for tailoring, as she had seen him use his synthesis ability when he made the uniforms for the staff and dresses for the courtesans.

After reviewing the list of products, she nodded her head and left to give Victor the task. Normally she was the one who would have to do this errand, but after the attack she had suffered, Andrew didn't want her to go out to do these chores.

Carolina understood that Andrew was being overprotective, but she didn't complain, after all, she didn't want to expose herself either, not to mention that it wasn't such an important task that she had to do it personally.

Víctor received Carolina's list and money, and without asking he left the Heavenly Palace towards the commercial region to comply with what they had asked. Since Víctor was a normal civilian, he would not suffer any problem when leaving it, after all, every day at the end of his work day he would return to his house since he did not live in the Heavenly Palace like everyone else.

Of all the employees of the Heavenly Palace, only the kitchen team and Victor didn't live there and they went home every day after finishing their work, so unless someone directly targeted them they didn't have to worry about a thing.

There were also some employees who worked as waiters during customer service hours who did the same, but they were part-time employees, so their situation differed from that of Víctor, Héctor, and the kitchen team.

Victor soon arrived at the commercial area and without delay proceeded to one of the stores that sells textile products that he knew were reputable and with good value for money products.

It certainly wasn't the most recognizable store in town or the one with the best products, but it was definitely the best place to buy the products Andrew needed.

"Threads and Fabric" was the name of the store and it was the store with the largest variety of textile products in the city. They focused on the sale of medium and low-quality textile products.

With this it did not refer to defective products, but rather focused on products focused on the middle and lower class of the city, so there would be no materials that the nobles would use, but this was not a problem, since Andrew intended to sell the designs, so Candice could later replace the materials to her liking and expose them to the wealthy and noble class at her convenience.

Víctor entered the store and was quickly greeted in a cordial manner by a salesperson. Víctor wasted no time in idle talk and passed him the list of what he needed and the man who attended him had a lot of experience and began to do his work.

Since the number of materials was far greater than what Victor could carry, he paid the transportation cost and requested that it be delivered to the Heavenly Palace. Most stores of this type have this service, because they knew that large quantity purchases were where they made the most profit, so they would not lose a customer because they could not deliver the products to their door.

This was not a service unique to textile stores, but to almost all stores that sold in the retail mode. After canceling the purchase and the freight, Víctor left the delivery address, and after being informed that he would receive the products in the afternoon, he left.

Víctor was only away for a couple of hours and when he returned he informed Carolina of the delivery time of the products, Carolina also informed Andrew about this, so that task was finished.

When Andrew found out about this, he sought out Helena and asked her to take measurements of all the courtesans of the Heavenly Palace, since he had decided that they would be the models for the presentation that he would make for Candice.

Helena and Carolina would really be the best models for this event, but Andrew would not allow them to do these tasks for obvious reasons. Carolina was his wife and although he didn't seem like it, Andrew was very possessive with her. He wouldn't allow her to expose herself to others unless it was someone he approved of and Candice wasn't one of them.

Helena on the other hand, was no different from the courtesans of the Heavenly Palace. In fact, since she was the matron of the place, she was not exempt from acting as one more courtesan if necessary, but for some reason, Andrew did not want her to be seen or have sex with people other than him.

The most curious thing was that Carolina had the same thought as him. Perhaps because of the close relationship that she had formed with her or perhaps because she had sex with her and was planning to allow her into Andrew's female partners, she didn't want anyone but the two of them to touch her.

Although Helena had no idea what Andrew and Carolina were thinking, she didn't care. She was quite happy with her situation in the Heavenly Palace and just carried out her duties, even if they asked her to act as a courtesan she would, but if they didn't she didn't care either, as long as they continued to treat her well.

The day went smoothly and the products arrived at the indicated time. Victor received them and by Carolina's order, they were moved to one of the storage warehouses that the Heavenly Palace had.

A few minutes after Andrew received the news of the arrival of the materials, so Andrew walked to the store where they were and began to make the designs that he had bought according to the measurements taken by Helena.

The courtesans and Helena had no idea what these measures were for, but they still did as they were ordered. They thought that they would receive new outfits as it had happened before the party for Alfi and his friends, but they didn't give it much importance.

After several minutes, Andrew finished making the new outfits thanks to his sewing and synthesis skills. He had to admit that the synthesis skill was very convenient, as producing any of the system-bought dress designs or recipes using a little power and time was simply cheating.

When he finished, in front of him were several sets of dresses and undergarments of different colors and slight variations that, while not much different, but to the detail-oriented eye that all women usually have for clothing, weren't really that light.

Andrew's sewing skill, unlike his pharmacology skill, allowed him to make small changes to designs, as long as they weren't too extreme.

Things like the length of the dress, the colors, or some additional decorations were possible. In this way, the four designs that Andrew bought from the system had become a whole collection, to sell to Candice.

Certainly, an experienced woman like Candice would notice that the differences weren't really elaborate and he wouldn't be able to make a lot of money out of them, but Andrew had planned to sell them at a lower price that way instead of selling four designs at a high price, he thought of selling many similar designs at a lower price but for the quantity he would earn more money.

This was not the only reason why he had adopted this strategy. The real reason was that this way, Candice would have enough variety that she wouldn't be requesting more designs from Andrew, giving him more time to earn points and buy new designs.

Andrew at first did not know the reason why this world despite having such a high textile capacity, had not been able to create better types of clothing, especially underwear and lingerie for women and men, but after a conversation with Fluffy, his doubt was resolved.

Unexpectedly, everything that arouses sexual desire, that is, eroticism and sensuality falls to the responsibility of the gods Eros and this world does not have the blessing of one, it was for this very reason that Andrew was sent here as a candidate for God.

Although this world had many types of casual clothes and elegant outfits, none of them primarily enhanced a person's sensuality.

Technically they focused on their basic function of covering their bodies or enhancing their elegance and even the skintight outfits worn by the assassins that could be considered sensual had really been created for their practicality as they focused on enhancing the movements of these characters.

The same was the case with underwear. It was never intended to seduce or enhance the sensuality of a person, only to fulfill its basic function, that's why there were only panties, bras, briefs, boxers, and even girdles very that were very common that in Andrew's opinion could only kill passion.

However, knowing now that he was the one destined to spread this knowledge, he would not stop. In addition, he also learned from Fluffy, that even if expert designers and skilled seamstresses saw these products, at most they could do was copy or make minor modifications to the designs of the system.

This was due to the fact that without the blessing of one of the gods Eros, creativity in this field was limited, and only when Andrew ascended and gave his blessing to this world, would people start creating their own ideas in this field.

Andrew was happy to find out about this because now he had the security of a secure source of income since there was no better business than a monopoly and surely there was no bigger monopoly than which he had.
