With Aphrodite and Phoenix's deaths... their return to myth, this uninhabited desert once again returned to calm.
The temperature dropped straight down to only a few dozen degrees, no longer the hundred-degree heat from before, hotter than boiling water.
Although this temperature was nothing at all to Hiyoumaru and Chiling among the four, it was still far too hot for the two Great Knights, Erica and Liliana.
They had no choice but to use magic to block out the heat...
The heat was still manageable. The key was... that desire affecting the mind and body...
If there had been any men here, when Aphrodite unleashed her Authority earlier, Erica and Liliana probably would have stripped naked and thrown themselves at them.
But there were no men here, only the three or four women. Still, under the Authority's influence, Liliana and Erica had done something slightly beyond what best friends should do.
This suddenly made things awkward between the two knights. But with Hiyoumaru present, they had not gone too far.
At this moment, Erica and Liliana gained their first deep understanding of the mighty power of a God of Disobedience. It was something mortals could not resist.
"Liliana..."
Erica looked at Liliana beside her and put aside her embarrassment. This matter had to be resolved, or the plans ahead would be difficult to carry out.
"What... do you want?"
Liliana looked at Erica warily...

Liliana deeply regretted getting so close earlier...
"Come closer. I'll tell you..."
Erica glanced at Hiyoumaru nearby and spoke softly to Liliana.
Liliana thought about it, then moved closer to Erica...
"What is it?" Liliana looked at Erica in confusion.
"Come here..."
