Chapter 491
Chapter 491: The Central Ruler(1)
“Ah, my heart feels unbearable pain,” An unfamiliar voice filled with sadness and disappointment rang in the area.
The voice had no direction, but it came from everywhere.
Autumn had a change in her expression, hearing the voice. Aakesh felt nothing and only looked in the direction Autumn looked at, while Clara fell asleep without being able to fight back as the voice affected her mind.
“Why don’t you present yourself to us?” Autumn looked in the sky and spoke while her tone turned emotionless.
Aakesh couldn’t find the source of the sound, and hearing Autumn’s statement, even she didn’t know it. He focused on Lily as the topmost priority for him at that moment was to protect Lily at any cost.
“Hey, system, turn Lily’s protection mode into proactive,” Aakesh ordered the system in his mind.
In proactive mode, the chances of the system acting were way more than when the protection was in reactive mode since, in the proactive mode, the system would act if even someone said threatening words aimed at Lily. But Aakesh didn’t care as Lily’s safety was of paramount importance to him, and he was willing to pay any price for that.
“Ouch! Why are you talking to me this way?” A pained voice rang in the area in response to Autumn’s emotionless statement.
“No need to play games with me,” Autumn responded as she knew the identity of the creature.
It was none other than the central ruler Aakesh had been searching for the past few decades.
“Hehe,” laughter rang in response to Autumn, and soon a silhouette started appearing in the sky.
As the silhouette became clear, Aakesh focused on the being.
The creature in the sky had a humanoid structure and looked like a human, but two curved horns that sat atop her head gave her away.
She had silver hair that flew with the wind. She had no pupils, and her eyes were completely red, and they shined, giving her a terrifying yet mystifying look.
She had sharp pointy horns coming out of her shoulders, making the skin rough. Except for her private parts, her pale white skin everywhere was there to see by everyone.
The creature looked to be as beautiful as anything could get. If Aakesh were to compare, only the actual appearance of Lilith was equal to the creature when it came to appearances.
“Katrina,” Autumn muttered the name of the creature floating in the sky.
Aakesh recognized the race of the creature. He couldn’t help but be surprised as the creature in front of him gave him a horrible sense of pressure, and Aakesh could also feel that he would never be able to defeat her.
Katrina belonged to a race called Kindeva. It was a race that directly descended from the union of the Asuras and the Yakshas, the two of the top three races in the Multiverse.
Being the union of the two of the top-three races should’ve resulted in Kindeva being superior to others, but the result was out of expectations for everyone.
Kindeva got the appearances of Yakshas, making them one of the most beautiful races of the Multiverse, but when it came to strength, they received the worse part from both the Asuras and Yakshas. That isn’t to say they were weak.
It was just that the result was entirely out of the Asuras, Yakshas, and other Primordials and race’s expectations. Despite being descendants from two of the top three races, Kindeva’s strength didn’t even reach the top fifty races in the Multiverse.

“I see that you’ve also gotten a name, Autumn,” Katrina responded.
Katrina had been monitoring Aakesh’s movements since he appeared on this Conspiracy continent and Autumn and Lily’s since both of them appeared two central territories away from hers.
When compared with Autumn, who could only sense Lily due to Lily being close to the primary domain, the strength of Autumn seemed to be nothing in comparison to Katrina.
Katrina was stronger than Autumn, but not by that much margin. She only could sense Aakesh since he entered this continent because the spider den was in control of her domain, and she had complete control over it.
Her ability allowed her to see and hear things across two central territories over her domains, so she found Autumn before Autumn could reach her.
Katrina’s eyes then fell on Aakesh, who was looking at her with surprised eyes.
“What are you so surprised about?”
The next moment, Aakesh heard a voice right next to him. Aakesh moved right away as Katrina appeared next to him.
“Ouch, don’t you like this body touching you?” Katrina asked with a pained voice as she pointed at her body.
Aakesh didn’t say anything and only stared at her, ready to attack anytime.
“No need to be so alert. You can’t defeat me even if you join Autumn,” Katrina told Aakesh. Her tone was completely different from what she used in her last sentence.
Her eyes then fell on Lily, engulfed in a blob of light.
“How beautiful,” A smile spread across Katrina’s face as she bent down and focused on Lily.
“Katrina, stop your games,” Autumn coldly told Katrina, while Aakesh already had dark energy balls the size of a basketball floating above both his hands.
“Fine, if you don’t want to play,” Katrina sighed. Her voice then turned to normal as there were no emotions in it.
“Since we’ve gotten serious. Now tell me, what should I do with you for intruding in my domain?” Katrina’s voice turned cold as she asked Autumn.
She didn’t even wait for Autumn’s response and turned around to look at Aakesh.
“Eh!” The next moment, Katrina exclaimed in surprise as she attempted to vaporize the dark energy balls in Aakesh’s hands to show her overwhelming power, but nothing of such sort happened.
No matter how much pressure Katrina attempted to push on the dark energy ball, it stayed off the same size.
“The element of Nihility!” Katrina exclaimed as she got her answer for not being able to vaporize the energy balls.
She then looked at Aakesh in a new light as she knew the value of the element of Nihility and its strength.
Even she had no control over it, and here there was someone weaker than her, who had an attacking skill consisting of the element.
