Chapter 874: A New Day for the Store(2)
“You can do it,” Aakesh told Garos.
“But you can’t use these pills to make profits. If any pill bought by you or your underlings is found to be sold to others, you will get permanently banned from this store,” Aakesh added without giving any time to Garos to celebrate.
‘Only an idiot would do this and offend the store,’ Garos thought in his heart after hearing Aakesh’s warning.
“Store owner, I know my limits,” Garos replied honestly.
At the same time, Garos celebrated Aakesh’s response in his heart. He could now buy 180 pills and treat Elera on the same day. All the pain she had gone through in the past several months would end from today.
Since the store owner had accepted, he now needed to find people to buy the pills for him. Garos didn’t know whether bribing the people would be considered selling the pills, so he decided to use his own underlings.
Several hundreds of people worked under him, so there was no lack of people who could buy the pills for him.
At the same time, Garos was also disappointed. The population of sentient beings in his inner world was around a few million. But he couldn’t bring them out, nor could he store the people of the Sacred dimension in his inner world.
The inhabitants of the inner world would explode into blood clouds as soon as they were taken out, while his inner world would collapse if he even tried to store an early Divine Transformation in it.
“Store owner, can I leave Elera in the store?” Garos respectfully asked Aakesh.
From this moment on, Aakesh had actually become a respectful figure in his heart. Garos no longer bore any negative emotions toward Aakesh, even if Aakesh killed Garoun. Since Elera could now stand, nothing else mattered to him.
Garos needed to rush to order his subordinates to come to this store. If he took Elera with him, he would need to be gentle, which in turn would increase his travel time.
“Yes,” Aakesh replied expressionlessly. There was no point in refusing since Elera was a customer.
Garos thanked Aakesh and then gently placed Elera on the floor. Garos wanted to take a comfortable bed out of his inner world, but Aakesh refused. Even though the stone was hard, it gave no uncomfortable feeling to the sitter, so Garos didn’t take Elera with him.
Garos then thanked Aakesh once again and left the store in a hurry. In those few minutes of his time, Garos didn’t even notice the two new rooms in the store.
Favan had clearly noticed the two new rooms since the pills didn’t take all his attention. After Garos left the store, Favan proceeded and approached Aakesh.
“Hello, store owner,” As usual, Favan first respectfully greeted Aakesh and then asked about the change in the store.
“From today, the number of products in the store had grown to four.”
“First, Panagea, which you already know about. Second, pills…, Third, weapons and training area…, Fourth, cultivation arts…,” Aakesh introduced the three new products to Favan one by one.
Favan had already accepted Aakesh as someone from those top backgrounds, so he didn’t feel surprised by the addition of these new products. But even then, the sale of cultivation arts truly shocked him.
The cultivation arts were best-kept secret not only by the top families but even by low-level cultivators across the Sacred dimension. The one Favan owned was given to him by his father.
The cultivators in the Sacred dimension could cultivate even without cultivation arts, but that took countless more years, and the growth stopped at the peak of the Divine Being. At the same time, there were a few races that were born with the knowledge of cultivation, so they had their own cultivation arts specific to them. Even then, those were hidden from the world.
Knowledge of the cultivation arts was required to reach the Divine Lord. The one Favan had was only of a Lesser level, so it stopped at the peak of the Divine being, but even then, it had helped Favan greatly. It was only due to the cultivation art that he even reached the late Divine Transformation this early in his age.
After learning about the cultivation arts, Favan decided to check them out. But before that, he needed to stay in Panagea for six hours. Favan had seen the rising number of customers in the store. Even the highest-grade cultivation arts brought no value to Favan when compared with Panagea.
Since Favan didn’t want to wait six hours for his entry, he paid thirty-five lesser Sacred stones to Aakesh and went to Panagea. He would check the other products after coming out.
Aakesh’s lips twitched in frustration at seeing Favan go directly to Panagea without checking other products first.
Whenever a new product arrived in the store, it also brought a quest with it. But the activation of the mission had a condition, the first sale.
Only after the first sale did the quest appear before Aakesh with its requirements. At the same time, the first sale would never get counted in the mission requirements. So it didn’t matter how large or small the initial sale of the product was.
Aakesh wanted Favan to be the one to accomplish the first sale since Garos was going to make a large sale, and he didn’t want it to become only a trigger.
Since Favan left, Aakesh could only wait for another customer to come and complete the first sale before Garos.
A few minutes had passed after Favan left for Panagea. Aakesh was relaxing on his chair with closed eyes while the unconscious Elera stayed in one corner of the store, unaware of what was going on around her.
Suddenly, Aakesh heard the sound of footsteps coming from the store’s gate. He immediately opened his eyes and looked in that direction. He found an unfamiliar face standing at the door.
A new customer in the store this early morning, when only a few days had passed for the store, surprised Aakesh. But since the more customers, the better for Aakesh and the store, he stopped thinking about it and waited for the new customer to make a sale and activate the quest.
