Aurelius was now sitting in the hut with Aria in his arms, while Elara and Sarah were sitting beside him and leaning their heads on his shoulders.
He wore his usual dress, a white robe with golden accents, and the girls also wore their gray robes. Sarah had to borrow a dress from Elara as Aurelius tore hers.
Her bountiful breasts were tightly wrapped in Elara's robe. It was too tight for her; her breasts looked as if they might spill out at any moment.
Aurelius' hands roamed around Aria's body, as he looked at the cute girl, biting her lips, stopping her moans.
Both the mother and daughter wanted to have sex with him but were disappointed when Aurelius said no and told them that they would do it later.
The girls pouted in response but didn't say anything. After all, he was their god, and you never say no to your god!
"So, my beautiful devotees, tell me more about your village," he said while pinching Aria's nipples with a playful smile.
"Hng! ~" Aria moaned under her breath while her breathing became ragged.
.
Sarah's eyes lit up in excitement, 'I am not going to miss this chance!' She resolved to herself while clenching her fists. She would do anything to get closer to her god.
"Our village name is Arin. It was the name of the woman who started this village 300 years ago," Sarah said with a bright smile on her face. She rubbed her big milkers against his shoulders while leaning her head forward, expecting a reward.
CHUCKLE
Aurelius chuckled at her antics and leaned forward to kiss her lips.
Elara pouted as she watched her god kissing her neighbor, 'I will answer His Holiness's questions next time!' she mumbled in resolution.
Aurelius backed away from Sarah and continued asking, "How many men and women are there in the village?"
"There are about 300 families living in the village!" Elara answered as she raised her voice. She turned toward Sarah with a smug smile and watched Sarah frown and bite her lips.
Aurelius noticed this interaction and took a mental note to explain all the rules of his religion later in the night. 'For now, I want to focus on information gathering.'
"Who are the people with the most power in this village?" he asked while shifting his attention to caress Aria.
"mmh! ~" Aria moaned at his caress, making the two staring women look at her with envy.
"The village chieftess is the strongest among us, and the village elders come next; although they do not have the same wisdom as His Holiness, they are respected throughout the village for their guidance."
Aurelius nodded his head at Elara, the one who gave the information, and closed his eyes. He thought about the things he had learned until then and noticed something: "What happened to all the men?"
'The head and the elders of the village are all women! It can't be that there are no men in the village, as Sarah got pregnant and gave birth to a child. So, what happened? Are men weak in this world?' Questions filled his mind as he looked at the two women for answers.
"The men in the village were conscripted for the war that was happening in the country. Few soldiers came to the village a few months ago and took all the able men with them. Now all those that remained were old men who couldn't do anything or children who were below the age of 12."
Sarah answered nonchalantly that there was no sadness or worry in her voice as, "Did the one who impregnated you also leave for the war?" he asked while his heart rate increased with anticipation. If this was true, then, 'It will become much easier to conquer this village!'
Sarah nodded her head nonchalantly; there was no worry in her eyes for her dead husband but only disgust that she let him touch her when, 'my everything belongs to my God!'
Aurelius' mind raced with the possibilities. His goal had become much easier to achieve; after all, the only real resistance that he could face now is the old men or the women who are skeptical about him.
'I am not worried about the old men, though; after all, they are old and cannot do anything that will hurt my plans! But the real problem would be the women who are skeptical about me.'
Aurelius can't always use his divine charm as that would only work up to five levels above him. And he was sure that there were people who were above level five in this village.
'Should I directly aim for the village chiefess…?' Aurelius mused, thinking about the possibility of converting the village chiefess first.
But then he shook his head and mumbled, 'That is dangerous; I don't know which level she is at, and I doubt the girls know, either.'
"Do you guys know which level the chiefess is at?" he asked the girls, who were a little startled by the sudden question.
But all three of them hung their heads low in defeat while Elara mumbled, "We're sorry, Your Holiness. But the village chiefess keeps it a secret, and so do the village elders."
The girls bit their lips while cursing themselves for their incompetence.
'We are useless to our god!' Sarah muttered inwardly while she tightly shut her eyes. After all, a devotee's biggest regret would be being useless to their god.
Aurelius pulled both Elara and Sarah into his embrace while he nudged Aria to do the same.
"Never think that you are useless to me! You being my devotee is the most I could ever ask for!" he said while his deep blue eyes shone with resolution.
His words worked like a charm, as anything he said would be a divine commandment for the girls. Their faces visibly lightened up as they rested their heads on his body.
Aurelius smiled softly while his mind thought about the problem at hand: 'I cannot go directly to the village chieftess as I do not know how she will react!'
Although Aurelius has the judgment of the faithless, it only works up to ten levels above him. 'And I don't know the village chiefess's level!'
'Then should I go with the other plan?' he questioned himself as he thought about the drawbacks of his second plan, which is that he must start from the ground up.
With his first plan, which is to convert the village head and its elders, it will give him a significant advantage over the rest of the women, and he will have
a lot of influence over them through these women.
But the problem was that he couldn't do that. Now he has to work from the ground up and wait until he has levelled up enough to manipulate the village elders and the village chiefess.
'It will take a long time, but I believe it's the safest. I should convert the women on this street first and then use this street as a base before I start converting women from the other streets!'
'And it's not the only drawback either!' Along with taking much more time, it will make Aurelius rely too much on Divine Charm; although he doesn't need to worry about their loyalty after he converts them, he still has to consider the outliers.
'The village chief and the village elders! If one of the women that I am trying to convert goes to them and tells on me, it will become a huge mess!' he mumbled inwardly while furrowing his brows.
After all, he didn't know how those women would react if they knew that someone was stealing the women from the men in their village.
The girls stayed silent and watched their god think about something. Literal stars shone in their eyes; they were too captivated by his looks, and adding to the devotee relationship they had, the girls were practically drooling over him.
'Wait!' Aurelius suddenly exclaimed inwardly as he thought of an idea, 'Well, it's not like it's a new idea, but the merging of the two plans.'
"Girls, is there a specific specialty for each elder, like someone is the overseer for hunting, one for food, etc.?" he asked while noticing the drool on their faces.
"Y-Yes," Aria said while wiping the drool off her face. "Yes, there are," she continued.
"The overseer for the hunting is Helen, for food it's Maria, and for external matters with other villages it's Victoria," Aria answered; she didn't know why he was asking but didn't dare to ask it out loud.
"Then, who is in charge of the internal matters?" Aurelius asked while his eyes glinted with curiosity.
"Internal matters?" Elara blurted out in confusion as she didn't know anyone who was in charge of that.
"Like the person you go to if you have a problem," Aurelius explained further.
"Oh! Then that would be Sophia; she is the one we go to to clear disputes between villagers."
Aurelius's smile widened into a smirk as a plan formed in his mind: 'I am going to hit two birds at once!'
