The First Store System

Chapter 387: Reward?

After Xotak left for the training area, Aakesh returned to another of his relaxation session since there were no new customers in his light.

Time flew by, and an hour passed.

Xotak, unlike his student, failed in defeating his opponent in the training area since the training was for weapon users, and the opponent depended upon the strength of the trainee.

He wasn't able to mend the gap between him and his sword carrying opponent, but it didn't mean that he didn't grow stronger after the session.

Unlike earlier, his reaction speed had grown by several folds, which was an enormous gain for someone like him, who loved battles.

After his training was over, the only product left for him to test in the store was Panagea. He decided to skip it for today and enter it tomorrow since there weren't complete six hours left before the arrival of the sunset.

Time flew by.

Odred, who had earlier decided not to stay for the entire six hours, chose to remain there for the complete duration in the end.

His and Anthony's six hours in Panagea were finally complete, so the system forced them out at the same time.

"Did you like it?" Anthony asked his friend after getting forced out.

The invisible force pushing him out was so strong that he couldn't even fight back, showing his minimal strength in comparison to the store once again.

"Yes, I never thought I would ever choose anything over studying weapons, but here I am," Odred smilingly responded. "Thank your luck that I liked it," He further added, staring at Anthony.

Anthony only smiled wryly, hearing Odred's aggressive tone. He didn't mind it as he had been friends with him for millenniums, so he knew Odred's character.

"Now that you had liked it, you owe me two favors," Anthony smilingly told Odred and patted his shoulders by bending.

"Let's talk about it later. I don't know what kind of weapons your follower must have selected," Odred commented and hurriedly left the portal room.

He straight away entered the weapons room and noticed a few of Anthony's followers still searching for weapons while the majority had already chosen their ones.

Seeing Odred entering the room, the followers bowed and greeted him. They then began showing the weapons they had selected.

The followers worked very hard as Odred liked the majority of the selected lot. Anthony, who was only watching the situation going on, couldn't help but laugh and compliment his followers.

Time flew by.

Even less than an hour was left for the sunset. Except for forty-seven customers in Panagea and Odred, Anthony, and his followers, only Aakesh and Lily remained in the store.

Even though Odred liked most of the weapons selected by Anthony's followers, he still didn't buy them right away. Instead, he started searching for weapons himself since there was still time left for the closing time.

More time flew by, and fifty minutes had passed.

The sun had set, and with it, the light hid, and darkness stepped out. While it brought close to a day into many people's lives, it also started a day in many people's lives.

Except for Odred and the other members of his group, no other customer was left inside the store.

Since it was now time for the store to close, Aakesh stood up from his chair. Lily comfortably sat on his head.

Aakesh then went to the weapons room and noticed the Dwarf passionately studying the weapons while the Vampire casually looked at the situation.

"It's time for the store to close. If you have nothing to buy, leave the store," Aakesh expressionlessly broke Odred and others out of whatever they were doing.

"Store owner, give us a few more minutes," Odred requested since there were still a few more weapons he wanted to check before buying.

"No!" Aakesh bluntly refused. Without waiting for anyone's response, Aakesh turned around and left the room.

Hearing straight refusal from Aakesh, Odred had no choice but to stop studying or choosing more weapons.

He then looked around and found a weapon in the hands of everyone except Anthony.

Anthony was Odred's good friend, but he had refused to buy a weapon from the store and close his limit for a month since no one knew what would happen in a month.

Odred also understood it, so he didn't ask them to do it again.

Since everyone had weapons, even if some of them proved to be not to his quality, it would still be a good add in his arsenal, so he turned around and left the room, while Anthony and his followers followed him since they had come here after the request of Odred.

***

"You need to pay Seventy-four supreme Primal stones,…," Aakesh expressionlessly told the price Odred needed to pay after the system informed him.

Odred was already ready for any weapon he chose; Odred always checked the price.

Odred was then prompted with a familiar mechanical alert in his head, asking whether he wanted to pay or not. After he accepted it, Aakesh got the notification of successful payment.

"You can now take them," Aakesh expressionlessly told Odred.

"Thank you, store owner," Odred thanked Aakesh. Anthony and his followers also thanked Aakesh after him.

"Now, it's time for your reward," Anthony suddenly announced.

He had brought 1283 followers with him, and out of them, Odred liked the weapons selected by 979 people.

"Store owner, give me 979 supreme cards," Anthony requested Aakesh.

Since the card machine didn't accept the payment from the card, it asked for physical currency. Anthony took out 979 supreme Primal stones from his card and handed them to Aakesh one by one.

A few minutes later, all the rewarded members had supreme cards in their hands.

As for the remaining members, Anthony ordered superior cards for them since he was happy with what he had gained today in the store.

Those who had cards directly teleported out of the store while the remaining left it on their foot.

Aakesh then went to the door and closed it, bringing another day for the store to an end.
