The First Store System

Chapter 352: Aim

The sun rose in Visteerna and brought light into the darkness.

With it, the store in the busiest market of Kakot also opened.

As usual, Aakesh found a large crowd waiting at the door for the store to open.

Aakesh didn't let them wait anymore, turned around, and went to the chair.

The crowd entered the store like a tide, and in no time, the street that was overcrowded only a moment earlier returned to the usual.

The first 150 customers that set foot in the store had a golden transparent light surrounding them, making them different from other customers.

"Damn it!" Carla cursed under her breath, seeing that she wasn't in the first group. The person that entered just before her had also gotten a place, taking away her chance to enter the first group.

The group of Pento, as usual, got their entry into the first group. They first bought three mental healing pills for each member in their groups and then went to the portal room for Panagea.

After losing his claim over the throne of the Bisan Kingdom and her sister becoming the new King, Pento stayed depressed for a few days, as he had been preparing for it for his entire life.

He still wanted to be a King and then an Emperor, so he finally got over his depression. The only thing that could help him become a King is now the store, so he became a regular customer for it again.

Since he had made good relations with Bislo, Bisal, and Mark, he decided to continue their grouping in Panagea. It wasn't a loss for him as Bislo was a class owner in his group, and that too was one of the most sought out classes in the event, alchemist.

Even though he didn't become the King, he still demanded respect since Brinda has been very possessive about the royal family, even more than her predecessors. It made every member of the royal family the most respectful beings after the King in the Bisan Kingdom.

At first, Pento had thought of usurping the throne for himself after becoming stronger than Brinda, but his thoughts came crashing down a few days earlier.

Brinda, who had the badge gifted by Aakesh, could hear the thoughts of her subjects, so Pento's thoughts weren't hidden from her.

Even though Brinda loved her family members after Punta disappeared and left her to care for the Kingdom and family, she still couldn't accept the thoughts of betrayal from any of her siblings.

She decided to clear the problem right away so that she wouldn't have to kill her brother in the future. Thinking like this, she warned him and threatened that if he were to have these thoughts again, Brinda would publicly execute him without considering the familial relations between them.

Pento, hearing his sister and his King's warning, stopped the thoughts of usurping her, as he had never felt more afraid when she had told him the consequences of his actions.

Even though he had given up the thoughts of usurping the throne of the Bisan Kingdom, he still wanted to be a King. And the only way he can become one is to conquer his own territory.

Thinking like this, the goal of becoming a King that he had given up after Brinda got the throne rose up again, and now he wanted to become the first adventurer to conquer a territory inside Panagea on his own and then become a King.

The goal he had set now was way more difficult than becoming the King of the Bisan Kingdom, but he had already made this his only pursuit and would give all his efforts in pursuing it.

After buying the mental healing pills, he and the other thirteen members in his group ate one, and only then did they touch the respective virtual portals they had chosen.

The next moment, an undefeated force sucked them in, and soon they appeared in the same places they had left yesterday.

Since Bislo had become an alchemist, he decided to only concentrate on it and learn new formulas and ways to make new pills. His son, Bisal, and the other member Mark also followed him and learned new knowledge from him.

Pento, on the other hand, had his complete focus on clearing missions, learning skills, and new fighting techniques.

Of the remaining ten guards of Pento in the group, five were ordered to only focus on growing stronger, two were selected for completing the class quest for the blacksmith, and the remaining three were to complete the class quest for the class Administrator since Pento wanted to create his Kingdom with help of all thirteen members.

Since Pento was in depression for a few days, he hadn't entered Panagea, so he hadn't gained any level in those days.

He was currently only Level four, one of the lowest of the adventurers who had been entering Panagea since its arrival in the store.

After entering Panagea, Pento directly left to get his next quest since the first step to reach his aim was to reach Level 50.

***

Since it was only early in the morning, there were no new customers in the store, for now, so Aakesh was free to relax.

Carla, who had gotten selected for the second group, had nothing to do since there were six hours of time left before her turn to enter Panagea came. She decided to enter the training area so that the time doesn't go to waste, and she could also grow stronger.

The Immortal and the Gods & Demons level training area was already out of the question as the latter would put a dent in her wealth, while the former would limit her entry.

So she decided to go with the difficult level of the training area, and it only cost ten supreme Primal stones, so she could do it without worrying much about putting a dent in her savings.

Since the card could directly help her enter that level of difficulty, she didn't have to ask Aakesh first.

Thinking like this, she went to the weapons room, but before that, she didn't forget to set a timer in her mind so that she wouldn't miss her entry due to being in the training area.

Since she was a spear user, she found the pillar that marked the weapon and then did the process required to enter the infinite space inside the training area.
