Chapter 88: Chapter 13 - The City of Entertainment [2]
The woman, kissing the boy with both hands on his face, looked at Arthur and winked.
Everyone at the tables listened to Hera's performance. Some got up with their partners to dance.
Arthur, observing Hera, thought. "Not everyone is looking, just a few... Only some women, others probably look just because it's their profession..."
He was wrong! Every vampire woman was lustfully ogling him.
A waitress, fixing her hair and leaving her chest on display, took a tray with wine and two glasses and paraded around the tables, showing off her curves, dark wings and tail.
Arthur, seeing the woman leave the wine and the glasses, smiled. –Thank you... – said, switching focus to Hera. "Their appearance is weird... Dark wings, dark tail, pale skin, I'm going to have a talk with Windsor when I get back..." he thought.
Hera, playing, sang. – It was good to wait for you...
– Now I won't make any mistakes... – Hera continued singing.
– … I met the love that comes... – Hera singing, she opened her eyes and saw the waitress trying to seduce Arthur, causing her to miss a note in anger.
The waitress, staring at Arthur, whispered. – Call me if you need anything, just call! Anything... I can give you a unique night...! – she said, licking her lips.
Vampires, the faithful servants of Aphrodite, were under her absolute control. The Queen of Vampires had total and absolute control over every aspect of their lives through her ability, Necromancy. It is through them that she gets stronger. They absorbed the Life Force of the clients and forwarded it to the queen, that's why Aphrodite only needs to be alive to get stronger, at every moment she gets stronger. She had millions of vampires around the world, making her even stronger than Zeus himself.
"That woman is going to be the first to die when I destroy this place!" he decided, looking at her. – Right, thank you... – he said, looking away from Hera. [Continue...!] he ordered telepathically.
These vampires ensured the running of Aphrodite's business, making her the most successful woman, or goddess, in the Greek empire and in Eurus continent. The priestesses in the temples of worship of Aphrodite were also vampires, with a collective mind connected, dependent on and controlled by Aphrodite, the Queen of the Vampires, women only, not men.
Hera Olympus, looking at everyone, realized they were looking at her. – Oh, I'm sorry... – she said, putting her fingers back on the piano keyboard. – Hug me... Hug me... With you I will go...
– Fight, sacrifice. Win, start over... At the well I found you..." she whispered, playing the last note.
Everyone whistled and clapped.
Arthur Treadway clapped his hands and smiled. "Those who clap are normal people, now those who work here are not... So, this is Aphrodite's entertainment industry. In addition to being a princess, she is one of the richest people on the five continents... She fulfills the dreams and fantasies of men..." he revealed, clapping his hands.
Hera, smiling, said. –Thank you...
A man approached Hera and held out his hand. – I want to ask you to a dance. It will be an honor to dance with such a beautiful woman..." he said, fixing his red eyes on her.
Smiling, Hera thought. "He's too pale. My skin is white, but it's not as strange as his..." she said. – Thank you for the compliment, but I will have to refuse...
Arthur, looking at the two of them, thought. "I think I've already achieved my goal! This province is going to fall, and I won't leave anything left!" he decided looking at the man.
The man, smiling. – I insist... – a vein appeared on Hera's face as she dodged his hand.
Looking at him, Hera exclaimed. – And I said no! – she looked at the table where she was sitting but didn't see Arthur. She turned her gaze to the man and saw Arthur behind him.
Arthur, smiling, asked. – Friend, any problem?! – he questioned, deep down he was jealous of the way the man looked at her.
The man in luxurious clothes, with reptilian pupils, smiled at Hera. – No big deal, I was just inviting the most beautiful and hot woman I've ever seen to a dance... – he said, completely ignoring Arthur.
"Yes, my goal is achieved! Hera is seen as a goddess in the Greek empire, but she is not respected in this province. Although the Olympians never appear among other people, so it is likely that they did not recognize her... May Hera forgive me, but I had to expose her..." Arthur thought, smiling. – Well, the most beautiful woman you've ever seen is engaged, and she's already leaving... – he exclaimed, grabbing her arm, and walking towards the exit.
Four muscular, pale men, dressed in black kimonos, blocked the exit, crossing their arms.
Arthur and Hera stopped and exchanged glances.
Arthur, holding Hera's hand, sighed. "I just wanted a bit of peace, just for one day..." he sighed, running his hand through his hair.
The man, laughing. – Leaving? But it's still so early! Arthur, you can go, but the goddess there, stays! – he revealed, showing that he knew Hera's identity.
Everyone in the restaurant, upon seeing the man, began to leave. – Let's go! – they murmured.
Standing there, looking at the people leaving the restaurant, Arthur thought. "It's clear that there's something strange here. Why are these people running away...? Just because they saw this man?!" he asked himself. – I don't want trouble, or kill anyone, at least not today...
Laughing, the man said. – Kill someone?! Who says you're going to kill someone?! – He questioned, showing the abnormal size of his tongue. – You know what? I'm going to follow Zeus' example. He kills husbands and keeps their wives, and after he lies with them if they get pregnant, they stay alive, but if not, they die... – he said, his laughter showed his sharp teeth. – That's what I'm going to do with you!
Hera Olympus, looking at Arthur, questioned. – How does he know your name?! – with a worried look.
"These men are Absolute Masters, Immortal Dimension... The leak of information from the Ashura house is not even four years old, but these men have already evolved to the second Dimension, but..." he thought, looking at Hera, then at the four of them, Arthur used the Heavenly substitution technique, and his inner Qi spread throughout his body. – Stay right behind me! – he ordered, preparing for the fight as he grabbed her hand.
Hera Olympus, next to Arthur with a frowned forehead, exclaimed. – I can fight! – she looked at the men, clearly not understanding what was happening.
Arthur, looking at them, thought. "This child!!! Is this woman an idiot?! These people already knew the information that was in the Ashura library! This is more than obvious... Either there was some infiltrator in the Elder Family, or they already had this information since the time of Pendragon...!" thinking, he whispered next to Hera. – You're no match for them! They are not in the first dimension like you! They're going to kill you, so don't make me worried! – he exclaimed, squeezing her hand.
The four men attacked the two.
