Chapter 467: Request

"You're also here," An unknown voice rang around Aakesh and the group, bringing their conversation to a halt.

Except for Aakesh, everyone turned around to see the source of the voice. Lily didn't recognize the figure, so she had no reaction, but the same couldn't be said for Lenna and Norman.

Lenna had an abnormal reaction at the start, but she calmed down right away as she knew about the store owner. Norman, on the other hand, had his eyes flew wide open and his jaw almost dropped to the ground from the shock seeing the Void beasts approaching their group.

Norman wasn't the only one to have such an abnormal reaction.

A large number of people standing there had the same reaction. They consisted of the majority of the people who were weak to enter the portal, while the remaining ones were new arrival around it.

They had seen how people were uncomfortable and not daring to speak something troubling around the Void beasts and how the beasts had ignored everyone and entirely kept their focus on the portal.

Since three Void beasts had left for the portal, there were only eight in the group, and since Aakesh had only conversed with Oxen, they were unfamiliar with each other.

The next moment, all eight Void beasts were in front of Aakesh.

"Hello, I am Natasha. I have heard a lot about you from Oxen," One of the female Void beasts stepped out and introduced herself. Her tone was filled with respect. It was only to the limit anyone showed to their equal as the Void beasts didn't want to create a situation where they looked like subordinates of Aakesh.

"I am Aakesh, and she is Lily," Aakesh expressionlessly responded and introduced himself and Lily.

Hearing Aakesh introducing someone, Lily gained the curiosity of the Void beasts. They looked at Lily, only to get surprised.

"How?" One of the Void beasts asked as he recognized the race of Lily. The last he heard, Epochal Felines had entirely gotten extinct several Epochs ago due to the loss of their bloodline.

They then looked in shock toward Aakesh. Their fear of Aakesh got even worse since Epochal Felines weren't weak creatures in the first place. Someone who had the ability to revive a beast belonging to the Epochal Feline could be an even stronger mighty figure than they had expected.

"Hmph, don't look at me!" Lily scoffed after getting irritated by the look of shock on the beast's face.

"Do you know anything about the portal and ruin inside it?" After the Void beasts got over the shock of finding an Epochal Feline, Natasha asked.

"No!" Aakesh replied straight away.

Except for sensing a dangerous level of life inside the portal and Turta being the person who activated it, Aakesh knew nothing about it.

"If the ruin inside the portal turned out to be disastrous for the Primal dimension, would you help us to defend the dimension?" One of the Void beasts suddenly asked.

<br/>"We'll see," Aakesh expressionlessly answered. He wouldn't attack anyone for anything unless their actions affected him, Lily, or the store in any way.

The Void beast's faces were filled with disappointment, hearing Aakesh's response. They had already given their last weapon to Oregon before leaving, so he would take action if he found the ruins were disastrous for the Primal dimension, but if it didn't work, the Void beasts wanted as much help as possible. And they only found Aakesh to be strong enough to stand with them.

"We have a request before you enter the portal," Natasha commented, getting over the disappointment from Aakesh's answer.

Aakesh stared at Natasha and didn't say anything.

"If you find Oxen, Talia, and Oregon inside the portal, if possible, help them. They have a mission that they can't fail at any cost," Natasha told her request.

Natasha had no idea that all three of them had gotten separated when they entered the portal. Whether they would meet or not was left for the future.

Aakesh only nodded in response to Natasha's request and didn't give the Void beasts a word.

Norman, who had been silently listening since the start with his mouth wide open, couldn't help but look at Lenna in shock for knowing someone like Aakesh.

Lenna ignored Norman's stare as she had expected a similar reaction from Norman when he found out about the store owner. Someone who could have friendly relations with Dragons couldn't be an ordinary figure.

If not for fear of offending Aakesh, Lenna and her family would've made stories about the legend of Aakesh; such was the respect they had for him. Especially Elasha, who believed Aakesh to be an avatar of a Dragon.

"Be careful, a strong figure has entered the portal, and she has a purpose," One of the Void beasts suddenly informed Aakesh as he remembered Lilith, how she had forcefully preponed the opening time of the portal.

"I will help them once," After hearing the concerns of the Void beast, Aakesh decided to help the trio of Oxen once.

Even though he already knew about Lilith, the Void beasts didn't know that, yet they informed him of her danger. To repay the favor, he would help the trio of Void beasts if it didn't bring any harm to him or Lily.

As for Lenna and Norman, they would stay safe in the group until they stayed in their line, and didn't attempt anything Aakesh didn't like.

A smile appeared on all the Void beast's faces, hearing the assurance of a single help from Aakesh.

"Let me say thanks in advance then," Natasha smilingly responded.

"Are these two also in your group," Natasha asked as her eyes finally fell on Lenna and Norman.

Aakesh expressionlessly nodded.

"Greetings, seniors! I am Lenna, a Moonlight Elf," Lenna bowed and respectfully greeted the Void beasts.

"Greetings, seniors! I am Norman, an Oblivion Vampire with a tiny bloodline of Moonlight Elves from my mother," Norman did the same.

Natasha nodded.

She then raised her hands, and two blobs of green light the size of an almond emerged on her palm.

"Here, it will completely heal you in no time, even if only a drop of your blood remained," Natasha then handed the two blobs of energy to Lenna and Norman, respectively. For Lily, she didn't have to do it as she could see the relationship between Aakesh and her.
