The First Store System

Chapter 686: Close for the Day!

After Lily jumped on Aakesh’s head, the store returned to calm as Aakesh returned his focus on the customers standing in the queue.

“Store owner, I want this cultivation art,” A familiar statement rang once again in the store as another customer joined the line for cultivation art and got his turn.

Aakesh didn’t speak anything but only took a glance at the virtual book floating next to the man.

The next moment, all the primary details of the cultivation art appeared in his head. Aakesh then told the man the price of the cultivation art according to the piece of memory in his head.

The man paid for the cultivation art using his card. After Aakesh got the notification of the successful payment, the virtual book materialized into a physical one. The man thanked Aakesh and left the queue excitedly with a new book in his hands.

These scenes were similar as Aakesh had already gone through them several million times, and Aakesh would have to go through them even more times. Aakesh didn’t get bored, but Lily, comfortably seated on his head, didn’t have the same level of patience as Aakesh._.

“It’s so boring,” Her childlike voice rang in the store since Aakesh and another customer repeated the familiar scene for the umpteenth time.

Lily then closed her eyes and began her sleeping hour since she couldn’t watch the scene anymore.

Aakesh ignored Lily as he had no choice but to repeat the scene over and over again.

Time flew by, and the remaining hour till the sunset came to an end.

The adventurers in Panagea got forced out of it since it was now time for the store to close. Those customers who only had a few minutes left before their hour was over were still inside Panagea, and all the other customers got forced out since the system didn’t want to involve Aakesh’s free time in the store.

There were still many customers waiting in the queue. Their exact number was eighty thousand, nine hundred and six.

Aakesh left them as they were and stood from his chair. He first went to the weapons room and told them to leave the store and do their shopping the next day. After the weapons room, Aakesh went to the cultivation arts room and repeated the same process.

Lily, who had been sleeping on Aakesh’s head, also woke up as she heard Aakesh. Since it was time for the store to close, it was also time for her and Aakesh to go to the training session.

The next moment, Lily regretted her waking up as she had to watch a similar scene over several thousand times as Aakesh didn’t ask the customers in the queue to live.

When there were only a few hundred customers left, the portal room also got empty as everyone’s time was over.

After a few more seconds, only Aakesh and Lily remained in the store as Aakesh had sold till the last person in the queue.

“It’s finally over,” Lily couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief after all the customers in the queue left.

“How long do you think these scenes would continue?” Lily suddenly asked Aakesh. The customers in the queue were eating her time with Aakesh, and Lily didn’t like it at all.

“Who knows?” Aakesh smilingly replied. Even he had underestimated the popularity of the cultivation arts, so he didn’t want to make any prediction for this tide of customers. Even though he got swamped all day due to a large number of buyers, he didn’t consider it a waste of time.

Aakesh then stood up from his chair, went to the door, and shut it, announcing the end of the day for the store. With it, a stream of darkness engulfed the radius of three thousand miles around the store.

“Let’s go to our training,” Aakesh commented, and the next moment, a white light engulfed him and Lily.

When the light disappeared, with it, Aakesh and Lily had vanished. At the same time, a wave of darkness engulfed the store, and silence permeated the store.

The next moment, Aakesh and Lily appeared in the familiar selection area.

Aakesh didn’t have to speak anything as Lily jumped down from his head. She then used her skill and restored herself to have a height where she was only a cm shorter than Aakesh.

Lily then chose her usual training environment and pressed the switch on the right.

The next moment, a space crack emerged around Lily and sucked her inside without giving her even a chance to fight back against it.

Aakesh’s face returned to its usual expressionless face. He then went to his left and randomly picked a weapon for the day. He subsequently chose his training environment and next went to his right and pushed the switch.

The next moment, a familiar scene emerged as the space crack sucked Aakesh inside as well.

The next moment, Aakesh found himself in a familiar scene.

Not even a second had passed since his entry when a blue screen popped out of nowhere, asking him to choose the stage for the battle.

He could choose only up to the seventeenth stage since he had only reached that level once, and even then, he had lost the battle.

Aakesh didn’t tap on the screen right away but looked at his hands. He was carrying a strange weapon today.

It was a piece of red cloth. It would be a lie if anyone misunderstood it as only a piece of cloth. It had spikes made of needles all over it, except for the part where the handle was supposed to be for the user to carry it.

It was a strange weapon for Aakesh to use since females were the predominant user of this weapon.

The needles spread all over the cloth were poisonous, and they had even potency to kill an Immortal in the blink of an eye. Even Aakesh would have to be cautious of the needle if the same weapon were to be in the hands of his opponent.

The cloth was made up of leather of a creature, now extinct in the Sacred dimension. Its flexibility and elasticity were known across not only the dimension, but also the multiverse.
