RISE OF EROS

It turns out that Belenio\'s second son, Dustas Tripia was a man who had spent his 30s in scraps. This man had distanced himself from politics and concentrated on academic study.

Thanks to this, his older brother gained the trust of Belenio, and Belenio named him crown prince, even though Belenio had no intention of abdicating the throne yet, however, this title made it clear who would be the next king.

Belenio also did not like Dustas\'s attitude because Belenio was an egocentric and ambitious man, and the calm and studious personality that his second son showed was not to his liking.

His older brother was similar to his father in many ways, especially egocentric, which is why both he and his father were never able to see Dustas\'s deception.

This man did not limit himself to locking himself in the library to read books, but from a very young age, he acquired the knowledge of the best teachers in the country and developed critical and strategic thinking.

The apple does not fall very far from the tree. Dustas was similar to his brother and father, as he is also ambitious and arrogant, however, the difference was that Dustas did not allow himself to be swallowed by those emotions.

Thanks to the critical and strategic thinking that he had developed since he was a child the ability to control these evils always act according to logic, and develop plans that allowed him to achieve his goals.

In his 30 years he not only gained knowledge, but also established hidden alliances with many of the highest nobles in the kingdom of Tripia and little by little developed a fairly extensive political network, so this coup d\'état had been preparing for years.

He even had plans on how to overthrow his father and brother, to take possession of the throne, however, a few days ago a much simpler plan had been presented to him and he did not miss the opportunity.

Since the war began, Dustas had been communicating with Dulma, Tripia\'s most powerful expert and the guardian as well. He had learned that Dulma was against the war and that his relationship with Belenio had become estranged somehow, so he reached out.

The second prince of Tripia was also against the war against the empire, as it seemed like a stupid idea to him. For him, if the kingdom of Tripia wanted to expand, the worst move was to challenge the local power. Continue reading on m|v-l\'e -NovelBin.net

Thanks to this point of view, his relationship with Dulma became closer, to the point that the guardian of the kingdom of Tripia was willing to support him as the future king, however, he would not act directly, to get rid of Belenio and the prince heir.

This complicated Dustas\' plans, but that was when the group of assassins that Belenio had been using until now and with whom he had fought for failing in the mission he entrusted to them appeared.

Although Dustas distrusted them, he managed to make an agreement with them. He hired their services to kill his father and frame his brother for a large amount of money.

Although when he requested this job, the assassins were not sure if they would be able to do it, as they would have to outwit Dulma which would not be easy, but Dustas had already managed to agree with him not to interfere, so the operation was carried out.

It was actually very easy to achieve, because inside the castle, only Dulma could stop them, so these mercenary assassins sneaked into the crown prince\'s room and drugged him, capturing him while he was sleeping.

Then they took him to Belenio\'s chambers and while he slept they used the prince\'s hand to plunge a sword into the heart of his father. Belenio did not even notice who murdered him, because he died instantly.

The crown prince was still asleep when this happened, so the assassins hired by Dustas gave him a strange drug that increased a person\'s strength but had the side effect of making the person who consumed it lose their mind, in short, the crown prince entered a berserker state.

In that state, he could not distinguish anything, and having his sword in his hand, he began to hit what was closest to him and that was the lifeless body of his father. The commotion attracted the guards who were guarding Belenio\'s doorroom and when they entered they found the crown prince stabbing the lifeless body of his father and an extraordinary amount of blood scattered throughout the room.

Despite the surprise, the guards subdued the crown prince and that was when the whole crisis in the country of Tripia began. The crown prince, upon waking up from the side effects of the drug, did not remember anything, but all the guards had seen him, so his crime was undeniable.

No matter how much he screamed and denied his crime, the evidence said otherwise and Dustas, with a performance that would surprise even an Oscar-winning actor, put the final nail in the coffin, condemning his brother to death.

In this way, Dustas became the legitimate king of Tripia, without any of the nobles close to his father and brother knowing it. He immediately took the reins of his country and began the hunt against the opposition.

With the help of the nobles whom he had allied himself with for years and the organization of assassins who took care of his father and brother, he killed all the nobles that he thought could cause problems for him, and in this way, he gained total control of the kingdom.

What was even more surprising was not that he accomplished all this while they were in a state of war with the empire, without anyone noticing, but that when everything was settled, Dustas left no loose ends and betrayed the assassin organization that he had used until now.

Dustas had brought them together, to give them recognition in the form of payment for their work. Although these men did not want to make things complex, Dustas clung to the fact that such a large amount of money could not disappear without explaining where it went.

Because of this, the assassins agreed to have a small and private award ceremony that would serve as an excuse for Dustas to give them the payment he had promised them as a reward, but it was all a trap.

What he wanted was to bring all the members of this organization to light and when the supposed ceremony began, Dulma along with other great knights and warriors of the kingdom of Tripia killed them, saying that they were his brother\'s assistants in the assassination of the king.

When Augustus and his ministers found out about all this, they were very serious because not only did they realize that the new king of Tripia was dangerous, but that in front of them was a letter expressing Dustas\'s intention to make the peace.

Augustus and his ministers were not stupid in the least, so upon learning of all of Dustas\'s maneuvers and plans, including his request for peace, they understood that they could not leave him unguarded.

Despite all the concerns they had about the new king of Tripia\'s next moves, ending the war was good for them, so they discussed how to approach the issue.

Since it had been Tripia who proposed a peace agreement, it could be said that the empire had been the winner and now they had to decide what they would gain as compensation.

While all these great events were happening, in Dunnas Palace everything was going smoothly. Andrew\'s wives remained healthy and energetic despite their pregnancy.

Marie had had no complications either. The employees according to Victor and Hector were already trained enough to operate on their account, they just lacked experience, but they would gain it over time.

Sonia also had good news, because all the courtiers had improved by leaps and bounds, especially Duke, who in her words, "Duke already could make Yuri moan with pleasure", but she did not relax her training.

For his part, Andrew continued training with Oliver, Castor, and Vala, which had given him better fighting ability, although he was not still at the level of an expert, he could defend himself.

On the other hand, Castor and Vala fucked like rabbits and their power had visibly increased, but they were still far from Oliver\'s level. The business was also making more and more money and the establishment was gaining a good reputation.

Andrew also visited Enri, Yuli, and Ilda regularly, which earned him a certain amount of points, which he used to purchase the recipes for the massage oils he needed for the step of turning Dunnas Palace into a massage house.

He was just waiting for the month to be over and for him to see if the courtiers were up to the expectations, then, he would begin training them in the degraded techniques of divine massage.

However, it was a normal day like any other when a messenger falcon arrived at Dunnas Palace. It was sent by Gastón, and when they read the message they were surprised because the short message just said, "The war is over."
