My Space-Time System

Chapter 375: Something big is about to happen.

By the start of the 3rd week of their break, the humidifier air freshener had made over a thousand sales. Filling the pockets of every investor with a lot of cash.

Throughout the 2nd week, Blake had been plagued by the thought of the company dying out because it lacked sustainability.

He had given up on changing the upgraded version of the humidifier, rather his focus shifted to making a new type of humidifier that would require customers to always come back to them.

Since the nobles wouldn’t want to buy anything that wasn’t the best quality, the target of the new product was the commoners.

“Did something happen?” Luciano was surprised that Blake was calling, so he had to perform a mental check to be sure that nothing was wrong.

“Yes, I have a plan for expanding the business.” Blake said.

“I am all ears.” Luciano said as he adjusted his posture.

…..

“I plan on making a humidifier for commoners. We would be using lower-value materials like plastic, copper, and silver. Also, we would be using beast cores as the power source.” Blake planned on making a humidifier for almost every level of society.

“Wouldn’t the beast core end up running out?” Luciano asked with a raised brow.

“That’s the best part of the idea. When the energy in the beast core is depleted, they would come back to us to buy a new one.” Blake’s explanation made Luciano’s eyes widen.

“So, what do you think?” Blake asked with a smirk on his face.

“Brilliant!” At this point, Luciano was wondering what Blake’s next idea would be because all so far were brilliant.

“I will have to change the design to something less attractive to not affect the egos of the nobles.” To not affect the sales of the upgraded versions, Blake wanted to give the nobles the impression that these versions were for peasants.

Not only would it not attack their egos, but it would make all those that act wealthy buy the upgraded version.

As for advertisements, Blake planned on gifting some of the normal humidifiers to all types of shops in the middle region. The aim was to catch the attention of customers, who would make inquiries after seeing the functions of the product.

Blake went on to mention the minor details he would have to change in the new design, before ending the communication link and moving to his reading desk.

“I need a design that is not only generic but less costly.” Blake began brainstorming on different designs, but that was when an announcement derailed his train of thought.

“Announcement to everyone in the Castle. Quickly vacate the Castle walls within the next 10 minutes.”

“What the hell is going on?” Blake was confused by the announcement.

“The announcement isn’t only for students so they are not telling us to leave permanently.” Blake thought.

Knowing that the castle had always been open to students during breaks, Blake was reassured that he wouldn’t be paying to sleep in a hotel.

…

On teleporting out of the castle, Blake saw a few students and professors from different years. Unfortunately for Blake, he knew none of the professors, so he could only sit on the grass and watch as more students left the castle.

After close to 5 minutes of waiting outside the castle, Blake spotted Castiel and Brian teleporting outside.

“What you guys so long to come out.” Blake asked.

“I was taking a dump when the announcement was made, and you know when started there is no stopping till it is over.” Brian said causing Blake to smack his forehead.

“I was waiting for him.” Castiel said as Blake turned to him.

“It’s been a while since we have seen you. What have you been up to?” Brian asked because it was almost 2 weeks since they had last seen or talked to Blake.

It was mostly because Blake stored weeks’ worth of food in his dimensional pocket, eliminating the need to constantly leave his room.

“I am aiming to enter the Hero realm before resumption. So I spend almost the entire day cultivating. Then I use my little free time on business related meetings with Luciano.” Blake answered.

“We expected that, so we didn’t bother disturbing since nothing important was going on.” Brian said.

‘2 weeks without spending time with my friends. What am I becoming?’ Blake felt bad.

[Although sacrifices are made in order to attain power, you shouldn’t forget those that would help you in your journey. So always try and balance things out.] The system said.

“What do you think is going on here?” Castiel brought their attention back to the castle.

“I have no clue, seems we can only watch and see.” Blake said as Castiel and Brian joined him in seating on the grass. 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.

After the 10 minutes countdown was over and it was confirmed that everyone was out, the walls of the castle began pixelating.

In a matter of seconds, the 1st to 4th floors had completely turned to pixels floating in the air. Part of it combined with the walls of the ground floor, but there was no visible change.

After that, more than half of the floating pixels swarmed together to form the 1st floor, before the remaining pixels joined together to form the last floor.

When everything was over, an announcement came from the castle. “You are now allowed to reenter the Castle.”

“…”

Just like every student outside the castle, the trio was so dumbstruck that they found it hard to string letters to form words.

It was after their brains had been given enough time to phantom what they saw, that they were able to speak.

“What the fuck just happened?” The trio asked the same question that was on every student’s mind.

[Seems things haven’t completely changed, the castle is still an artifact.] The system said in the mind link confusing the trio.
