Chapter 1037: Questions!

Chapter 1128: Questions!

"Did your grandfather, Emperor Sudas, ever inform you why your nipples became the spot for the statement?" Aakesh asked.

From the prophecy point of view, everything was extremely important, and similarly, there was a reason that the woman's nipples were chosen as the spot for the prophecy or whatever it was.

The woman had already informed Aakesh that she was born with the symbol, so it was clearly not her grandfather's doing.

"No! He also failed to realize what it implied." The woman responded, not thinking about the awkwardness anymore.

Aakesh nodded and began to think of what could be the reason behind the situation.

He knew what the nipples symbolized. It symbolized vitality and life since it was the source of food for a newborn baby.

But Aakesh was thinking about what it had to do with him since he was clearly the blue-skinned man who was foretold.

Even though there were many blue-skinned creatures in the Multiverse, and the prophecy didn't mention the race or the features of the man, but only the skin of his color, Aakesh wasn't being overconfident when he placed himself as that man. The omen talked about the blue-skinned man being the bringer of doom or the messiah of safety, and if there was someone who could do it, it was Aakesh.

"Hey, system, what do I interpret from the prophecy?" Aakesh decided to consult the only being more knowledgeable than him whom he could contact at any time.

[Host, you are the blue-skinned man, and the nipples represent the essence of life.]

"I can also guess that; how are the two of us linked?" Aakesh inquired with a frown.

[Host, Insufficient authority!]

The most common response from the system rang in his head whenever he asked any question related to himself.

"What store level do I need to know how her nipples and my coming are related?" Aakesh asked, hoping for a clear answer, so he could set his goal.

[Level 4!]

***

After not having insufficient authority to take the help of the system and getting some of his answers, Aakesh returned his focus to the woman.

"Do you think I am that blue-skinned man?" Aakesh asked, looking indifferently at the woman.

"Naah, you are too weak," The woman didn't even take one moment and responded.

Aakesh didn't mind her underestimating him, and he then asked a few more questions.

"How do I get the crystal?" Aakesh finally asked the question about the item.

"You need to pass the test I will give you."

Aakesh didn't reply in response and only nodded his head, showing his readiness to start the test.

The woman smiled and the next moment, a white light covered the two of them.

When the surroundings became normal, Aakesh found himself in a different area. It was still the garden, but it was the opposite of what Aakesh came from a moment ago.

Instead of flowers, stinky bones and rotten flesh were spread around as far as Aakesh could see.

The woman's dress had also changed.  Earlier, she had worn white, adding to her already graceful, ethereal presence. But at that moment, she looked like she had come straight from a horror book.

Her entire skin had turned dark, and three-fourths of her face was bitten, with the other one-fourth being the combination of some clear flesh around her right eye, her lower lip, and the flesh below.

At the same time, her strength had also grown severalfold. Earlier, Aakesh thought that one flick from him would be enough to end the woman's life, but that feeling had changed. He felt as if he were a small lizard, and standing in front of him was a tiger that could crush him with a casual slap.

Fortunately for him, the woman was not his opponent, as she explained what the test was to get the crystal.

In the middle of the rotten garden, a square rock was buried, the same as what Aakesh embedded in the crystal's mural. Aakesh needed to find the square rock first, and then with its help, he would be able to find the crystal as well.

As for how to find it, it was up to Aakesh. But before beginning the search, the woman warned Aakesh that there were high dangers around the garden.

Aakesh nodded and then took a step forward. The woman standing behind Aakesh sneered as if it were a different person altogether.

There was a hint of playfulness in her right eye as if she was waiting for Aakesh to drown in a sea of danger.

***

As Aakesh's right foot landed, a horrible stench attacked his nose. He looked down, only to find himself on the ground filled with rotten flesh.

The ground tried to sink Aakesh, but his steps were stable as he took a step forward. It was tough as an ocean of flesh jumped out with Aakesh, increasing the weight of his steps.

After around a hundred steps, Aakesh finally saw the end of the flesh. Suddenly, before he could take another step, a sense of danger hit him.

Aakesh didn't look left or right and jumped. The next moment, the flesh beneath his feet was sucked inside by a force that appeared out of nowhere.

Even seeing the scene was terrible mental torture, but it didn't affect Aakesh at all as he used the force from the jump to push him forward.

When he landed on the ground, he was outside the flesh-laden ground.

The next moment, Aakesh couldn't help but frown as when he landed, he saw bones coming together and forming a dragon-like creature.

Aakesh couldn't let them complete the formation since he could see that there was danger involved in the situation. He took his sword out and charged, slashing at the half-formed skeleton.

Clang!

A loud clashing sound rang as the sword hit the bone. Aakesh felt like hitting a tough metal, so he added strength, and his sword cut through the bones of the creature.

The situation stopped before turning dangerous, or so Aakesh thought; instead of staying on the ground, the cleaved bones joined together and formed several snake-like creatures.

They were small in size, but they had large numbers. The snake-like skeletons rushed at Aakesh with their full might.

Some of the larger ones stayed behind and opened their mouths, preparing an attack.

If the skeleton knew that Aakesh had fought several times more numbers at once, they would have thought of a different strategy against him rather than overwhelming him. His every movement was like a dance in the middle of the battlefield.

Whenever a white light flashed, many of the snake-like skeletons would be cut into several pieces. To stop them from regenerating, Aakesh had added the element of corrosion to his slash.

Whenever a skeleton would be cut, it would slowly dissolve into liquid and then into ashes, disappearing from the battlefield.

Aakesh's movement continued, and even before the larger snake-like skeletons could release their attack, Aakesh had reached them.

There were seven of them, and it only took seven quick slashes to end. Aakesh suddenly sensed a danger to his life, so he jumped back.

BOOM!

At the spot where Aakesh stood a moment ago, a loud explosion occurred, and a bat-like gigantic skeleton creature jumped out.

Instead of feeling the threat, Aakesh nodded since one of the eye holes of the creature had the square rock he had been looking for.

***

"Damn it!" The woman cursed when she saw the emergence of the bat-like creature.

It was supposed to enter the play very late, and till then, Aakesh would have gone through several challenges. Some might have even killed him and forced him to revive.

But due to the bat-like creature getting excited by Aakesh's quick movement, it appeared in an attempt to battle Aakesh and see who was quicker of the two.

It was due to the square rock as it was a sentient material, and the woman could do nothing to change it.

***

The battle between the creature and Aakesh began. It wasn't as easy as earlier, even though the creature was below the level range that Aakesh could easily defeat.

It all had to do with its high agility. It took some time, but in the end, Aakesh came out as the winner of the battle by cutting the creature into two and grabbing the square rock before it could run far away.

As Aakesh grabbed the square rock, the environment around him changed, and he found himself back in the beautiful garden, and in front of him was the woman with her gently stroking Handolia.
