Chapter 297: CHAPTER 296
Andrew's sudden proposal took Yuri by surprise, not only because of how sudden it was, but because of how strange it was. She wasn't stupid enough to not know that Andrew must have been watching her since she arrived, even though she didn't notice the watchers.
For this reason, she was aware that Andrew must know what happened inside the room during Duke's service. She also ran a pleasure house and she knew that while these businesses place great importance on privacy, that means exposing what happens there to the public, not spying on what happens.
Knowing this, Yuri became guarded and misinterpreted what Andrew meant and responded by saying, "Mr. Andrew doesn't have to threaten me, I won't start silly rumors, I'm not that short-sighted."
Now it was Andrew's turn to wrinkle his eyebrows in confusion, as he did not understand Yuri's response, but soon the thought came to his mind, and it was that Yuri had misunderstood him and taken his words as a threat.
"I think Miss Yuri is misunderstanding me," Andrew said trying to clarify, and then added, "I'm not threatening you or anything like that. I know that Miss Yuri is an intelligent woman, you would not waste your life on such a stupid strategy."
Andrew paused and continued, "My words are just as you heard them. I know that my courtiers are still somewhat deficient and that is why Miss Yuri did not enjoy it wholeheartedly, that is why I am inviting you to return in a month and I promise that you will enjoy it like never before.
Yuri raised her eyebrow when she heard it. She now understood that Andrew was not threatening her, but was genuinely inviting her to return, but even so, she did not understand the reason, because as the owner of a pleasure house, she knew that in a single month, there would not be so many changes.
This worried her, because if Andrew could really raise the level of his courtiers' services in a single month, then she would be in trouble. Despite these thoughts, Yuri showed no emotion on her face and replied, "Then, I will come in a month."
Andrew dismissed her with a polite bow. On the way back to her pleasure house, Yuri was still thinking deeply about the implications of Andrew's words.
With what she had experienced tonight, she knew that Dunnas Palace was not a threat to her, at least not in the business aspect, since Andrew's courtiers were still regular, but if he managed to correct that aspect in a single month, then the situation would change and that worried her a lot.
Meanwhile, Andrew returned to the office and told everyone what he had proposed to Yuri. None of those present said anything after listening, but they looked at Sonia seriously, since everything fell on her.
If she couldn't get Duke to subdue Yuri within a month, then they would be finished. Sonia understood this very well, but she still showed a determined look and did not back down. Continue your adventure at m|v-l'e -NovelBin.net
At this moment Fluffy suddenly spoke to Andrew, "Master, although that girl is very good at her work, maybe it may be difficult for her to achieve the goal. Don't you think it's time for you to get the seals of apostles out?
Fluffy's comment surprised Andrew and asked, "Seals of apostles?", Fluffy responded with a long sigh, as he noticed that Andrew had forgotten what he had told him about the seals.
"Master, you have to pay more attention to me. The seals of apostles are given to your most faithful believers and will provide a blessing to them. While they will not be able to ascend with you as your wives and guardians, they will be something like your spokespersons in the world."
When Fluffy said this, Andrew immediately remembered that he had already been told about these seals. Embarrassed, he scratched his head and asked, "I'm sorry, I really forgot about that, but how can apostle seals help in this case?"
"Just as wife seals can provide your partners with skills according to their tastes and abilities, apostle seals offer a blessing to them but focused on sexual tastes. I understand that this girl Sonia likes to be the dominant one when it comes to sex, so, if you grant her the seal of an apostle, she may obtain a blessing to help her in the task that she has to do", explained Fluffy.
Although Andrew did not understand everything with that explanation, he did not lose anything by granting Sonia the seal of an apostle. Although it had the same requirements as the guardian seal, Sonia complied, as she was devoted and loyal to Andrew.
Deciding this, Andrew stood up and approached Sonia saying, "Sonia, I will give you something that can make things easier for you, but once you receive it, you must follow me for life. Will you accept?"
Everyone present jumped in surprise at Andrew's words, as they knew the implications, even though they misunderstood that he would give her the guardian seal.
Sonia was confused by these words because although as a courtesan once she paid her debt she could leave Andrew's side, she had never thought about that possibility.
Over the time she had lived with Andrew, she had grown fond of him, and strangely enough, she loved her work, so Andrew's question seemed silly to her, but she still answered, "I have always had that intention, young master".
Andrew smiled at her response and placing his hand on Sonia's shoulder, he gave her the apostle seal. The process was similar to that of Oliver and the other guardians.
Only a few seconds passed, but to Sonia, it seemed like hours. A huge amount of information entered her head and soon her eyes were wide open as she understood who Andrew really was.
When she came out of the stupefied state she stood up and knelt. Andrew laughed at her strange movement and helped her up, "You don't need to change your ways."
Understanding what he meant, Sonia stood up and smiled. "Well, tell me, what blessing did you get?" Andrew asked, surprising everyone. "What do you mean by blessing?" Helena suddenly asked.
Everyone else was also curious since they had not received such a thing and then Andrew began to explain, "The Seal that I gave to Sonia is not the guardian one. It is called an apostle seal and it works differently, she receives a blessing based on her sexual tastes."
Although everyone still had doubts, they decided to wait until later to ask him, because they could see that Andrew at this moment was more interested in knowing what Sonia had received.
Sonia immediately closed her eyes and checked. She knew how to check this aspect, because when she received the seal she also received the information on how to do it. After a few seconds, she opened her eyes and said, "My blessing is called dominion."
Everyone focused on Sonia as she continued to explain, "According to what I can understand, thanks to this I can exert my will during sex and even teach it, but is a still weak".
Andrew's eyes widened when he heard this because although he was expecting that the blessing she received would help her, he did not expect her to receive something that fits like a glove in this situation.
In short, she had become an absolute dominatrix. She could make her partner accommodate her tastes and could even teach other people how to do it.
Although she was still weak and therefore not infallible, it was a terrifying blessing. Everyone present also understood how impressive this blessing was, as it was just what they needed.
Andrew was the first to come out of his shocked state and said, "With that blessing, you should be able to teach all the courtiers of Dunnas Palace how to focus on mastery during sex, so increase their skills".
He paused and continued, "However, the priority is Duke. If you think training everything is getting in the way, just focus on him". Sonia nodded in understanding and then said goodbye to everybody.
She wanted to start right away and Andrew didn't stop her. Once Sonia had left, Andrew's wives began to ask him questions about the apostle seal.
Andrew this time was not ambiguous and explained the particularities of the 5 types of seals he could grant. He also explained to them that only those who had a wife or guardian seal would ascend with him.
When they heard Andrew's explanation of the seals they immediately understood that even though he would be the one to control this world once he ascended, he still needed people here who would somehow spread his words.
Because of this, they began to ask many questions. In the end, everyone concluded that in a few ways what he was building was a kind of religion, only focused on sex and eroticism and although it seemed very bizarre to call it that, it was the closest thing to it.
While they argued, the night came to an end and Dunnas Palace closed its doors. Aside from Yuri's meddling, everything was a success, the customers were mostly happy, the employees fulfilled their obligations, and income was generated.
