Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Demoness
Karyk immersed himself in reading the book about the history, which was written from the perspective of the Drike Family.
The book provided detailed accounts of the founding of the Drike Family. It also discussed the other Great Families that were established around the same time.
As Karyk went through the pages of the book, his understanding about this world only increased. With the book, he was able to learn the extent of power that the Drike Family actually possessed.
The Drike Family was not just strong but it was also quite wealthy and influential. The Drike Family ruled over multiple universes, being an absolute Overlord.
Not just the Drike Family, the other Great Families also had their own spheres of influence. Until Karyk left his universe, he thought that the universe was all there was to this reality. Now that his horizons had broadened, he came to learn that there existed thousands of such universes, most even larger than the universe where he came from.
For a great family, a universe was like a small speck of dust that they could crush whenever they felt like it. Most of them didn't even bother to care about them.

Karyk remained immersed in the library of the Warship, losing track of time as he shifted from one book to another. He was so engrossed in his reading that he forgot how long he had been there.
It was only when he heard a knock on the door that he snapped out of his trance, realizing he had already read through half the library's collection in just a few days.
Reluctantly, he put the finished book back on the shelf and stepped out of the library, wondering why the spies had finally made their presence known.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
From the beginning, the spies had been observing him in silence. But now, they intentionally let him know that they were there, signaling that it was time to move on.
"I am somewhat jealous of your family. They seem to love you a lot," Karyk told Aelric who was complaining about his family repeatedly, as if he was a real tortured soul.
Aelric couldn't say anything against Karyk's words either. Although his family scolded him, sometimes for good reasons, they truly loved him a lot.
When he thought about Karyk who had lost his entire family because of angels, he could understand why Karyk was saying such a thing.
Compared to Karyk, he was truly lucky that he still had a family.
He tried to say something in response, only to stop when a spatial crack appeared in front of him, becoming as wife as a door.
The ship had finally landed and the doors had opened. On the other side of the spatial crack, he was even able to see a familiar face.
"Oh god, no! What is she doing here?" Aelric quickly hid behind his uncle the moment he caught sight of the young lazy standing outside, as if waiting.
The girl was holding a whip in her hand. Looking at the girl, Karyk was able to confirm that she was also from the Drike Family. Then why was Aelric so scared of her?
Not only did the girl look younger than Aelric but she was also really beautiful.
"Who is she? Why are you so scared of her?" Karyk asked Aelric who was hiding behind his uncle, repeatedly telling his uncle to close the door and take him away.
"She is an absolute demon! I can't believe that she came here personally! Why did it have to be her?!" Aelric didn't even appear this scared when he faced the Angels or when he was standing in front of the time lord.
The more Karyk looked at him, the more his curiosity increased.
