The First Store System

Chapter 699: A New Day with New Customers(6)

"Store owner, why do I sense Sacred energy permeating every corner of the store?" Charles asked Aakesh after apologizing three times.

The question still lingered in his mind, and now that Aakesh had forgiven me, he decided to ask. While asking the question, his tone was as respectful as a subject had in front of their ruler. The scene almost looked like a servant was talking to its master.

Unfortunately for Charles, he wasn't aware of it. His mind had subconsciously changed toward Aakesh, and things would only get worse with the passing of time.

Aakesh expressionlessly ignored the question as the system only required him to answer questions related to the store. Answers not related to the products were based on Aakesh's whims. If he wanted to answer, he would. If he didn't, then he wouldn't.

After getting no answer from Aakesh, Charles got his answer. He awkwardly smiled and respectfully asked for the introduction of the store products.

He could see that the store had three open rooms in total. Out of the three, one room contributed to this large queue gathered in front of the store owner, as around every few seconds, one or groups of customers exited the room and joined the line.

Since Charles had asked the question about the store product, he began the introduction of all four products, starting with the pills.

In no time, Aakesh concluded the introduction of all the four products and items related to it. He shared all the basic details of the products that a new customer needed to know.

After Charles learned of all the four products, he finally became aware of the reason behind the large queue. He didn't find it surprising as cultivation arts were popular for every cultivator, irrespective of their level. Not many people would be content with their cultivation art if they had a choice of what to buy. When he was still in the Primal dimension, even then, any cultivation art above rare grade couldn't be purchased with money. He didn't know about today, but he was almost sure that things stand as they stood thirty million years ago.

Charles didn't find any primary interest in the cultivation arts as he was only here for ten years at most. At the same time, he couldn't cultivate here since he was already a divine being and couldn't start over or increase his cultivation here due to the blocker put by the talisman on his power level.

He then stopped thinking about it. The pills also didn't make much sense to him except for the mental and physical healing pills.

Charles had a feeling that the blood explosion pill wouldn't work on him since his blood was already slightly golden. It had breached the limits of Immortality and stepped into divinity. So the respective pill wouldn't be able to burn his blood to increase his strength.

The healing pills had the same issue. But they would be able to heal minor injuries, so they at least had some value for Charles.

Charles then thought of the following product, weapons. It would be of value to him since he would be here for ten years. He had already sold everything he had in the Sacred dimension. Charles had his weapon, but unfortunately for him, his Kingdom got blocked here as it consisted of higher energy above the bounds of the Primal dimension.

At the same time, even if his Kingdom didn't get blocked, the weapon still belonged to the Sacred dimension. He would never be able to use it here, or he would have to face the wrath of the will of the Primal dimension.

What made Charles focus more on the weapons was the training area. Traditionally he was a spear user when he was in the Primal dimension.

When Charles ascended, he had to change his weapon and turn to the sword as spears didn't help him. His skill set in it wasn't good enough to use against literal Gods.

He wasn't a sword user, but he knew three moves: swipe, thrust, and slash.

Swords were the simplest weapon for cultivators as the three basic moves naturally came to them. The higher attainment in the sword demanded much hard work, but for Charles, who only turned toward it to save his life, these things didn't matter.

Now that Charles was here and there was the training area, Charles decided to train himself in the ways of the sword.

He hoped that when he would leave ten years later, he would at least be able to defend himself.

Charles finally turned to the final product sold by the store, Panagea. It was the one product to impress him the most.

When Charles heard about Panagea, he had a feeling that Panagea had a considerable role to play in the scene in that epiphany.

At the same time, Charles hadn't heard of a product that granted cultivation levels. He had heard of illusions where the participants got items they earned after the master of the illusion created them out of nowhere. But it was a first for Charles where he learned that participants could even exchange for cultivation levels with money.

"Store owner, give me a supreme card," Charles respectfully requested Aakesh after learning the details of the square box lying next to the store owner.

Aakesh nodded and took the lowest grade Sacred stone from Charles's hands.

Charles had a wealth of sixteen lowest grade Sacred stones left with him after he sold all his assets.

Fortunately for him, his Kingdom's space didn't get blocked in the store. Hence he could take out the stones from the storage inside the Kingdom.

Charles didn't want to steal for every product he would buy, so he took a chance and asked Aakesh whether he could exchange Sacred stones with Primal stones.

At the same time, Charles had a feeling that he should use his own money and not the stolen money. That's why he gave the Sacred stone to buy the card when he had a few thousand stolen supreme Primal stones left in his stolen space ring.

Aakesh took the Sacred stone and repeated the process required to create a card. Not long after, a silver card appeared in Aakesh's hands.
