The First Store System

Chapter 714: A New Day with New Customers(19)

“A worthy being would find their worth on their own and not ask others,” Aakesh expressionlessly answered in response to William’s question.

A look of embarrassment appeared on William’s face after hearing Aakesh’s response. At the same time, he also felt frustrated as Aakesh didn’t offer him an answer. He would need to find one on his own, and only then would he be able to request Aakesh to teach him the language of the Dragons.

Aakesh didn’t care for William’s embarrassed face. He didn’t lie when he saw William as someone unworthy to learn Draconian.

Aakesh had learned the language of Dragons when he was at his weakest. But at the same time, he also had unlimited intelligence, making him more than worthy of learning the language of Devas, let alone Dragons.

Whether Aakesh would teach William or not if he someday became worthy of the language was a different thing, and Aakesh didn’t waste his time pondering over it. He would do so when the time would arrive.

William had the same question going around in his mind, but since Aakesh had clearly told him he wasn’t eligible to learn the Draconian for now, he had no choice but to push the question to the back of his mind.

His focus then returned to the silver card in his hands. He still hadn’t bonded with it, so the next moment, William repeated the process told by Aakesh. Not long after, a golden card shining with even more splendor than the sun appeared in William’s hands.

The next moment, William found an item in his consciousness. William didn’t have to interact with it. Not long after the card’s creation, a mechanical question rang inside his head.

[Customer, do you want to transfer the remaining sum from the exchange trade?]

William thought of yes in his head, and not long after, William got another emotionless alert ringing in his head.

This time, it was about the successful transfer of the remaining sum from the three quintillions of supreme Primal stone exchange trade.

William then finally returned to the store products. He didn’t have much interest in any store products since he couldn’t grow up his level due to the traveling talisman.

Since there was no point in wasting his time in the Primal dimension and his goal also was to surpass Asquith, so he would have to return to the Sacred dimension one day.

That time, he would exchange his cultivation from Panagea and would be stronger than he currently was in the Sacred dimension.

Thinking like this, William chose Panagea to be his first store product for spending money. The training area was the second product he would spend money on, but since Panagea felt more interesting to William, he chose it over the training area as the first product.

His focus then returned to the silver card in his hands. He still hadn’t bonded with it, so the next moment, William repeated the process told by Aakesh. Not long after, a golden card shining with even more splendor than the sun appeared in William’s hands.

If the system were to remove any suppressing in the square card in William’s hands, its splendor would blind many of the customers inside the store. The system knew it, so it had suppressed it soon after its creation.

Since William didn’t need to ask Aakesh about the Panagea, he decided to leave the line. He thanked Aakesh for all the answers he gave and also for those he ignored and then exited the queue and turned around toward the portal room.

Aakesh got busy with another customer after William left. Since William had been conversing with Aakesh for a while, the queue had gotten more oversized than expected then when William’s turn had arrived.

After William left, the next several tens of thousands of customers were in the queue to buy cultivation arts; Aakesh heard the same familiar sentence and senselessly repealed the similar scene until a customer asking for something else’s turn arrived.

Except for the cultivation arts, the store only had a single product that needed to get directly bought from the store owner. It was the Immortal level and the Gods & Demons level training area.

The customer in question chose an Immortal level training area for an Overlord-grade weapon. It wasn’t due to the customer lacking money, but it was due to the reduced time limit for the Immortal level training area.

It was a man who had been a customer of the store from its early days. He had been repeating this habit since he became a customer of the store. This way, the customer had spent more money than he should have if he had chosen the Gods & Demons level training area, comparing the gain both the training area provided. The man also knew this, but he loved to train.

Training areas below the Immortal level were no fun for him, and the Gods & Demons level training area only allowed him to enter once a year.

The man left after paying for the training area from his supreme card, and after the man, Aakesh had to repeat a similar scene for the next several minutes.

Seconds turned into a minute, minutes turned into an hour, and just like that four hours had passed.

The queue standing in front of Aakesh seemed neverending. It turned out to be even bigger than yesterday.

At the same time, there were also many people sitting in the store’s hall.

The day up to this point in the day had already turned into one of the most successful days for the store. For the first time since their emergence in the store, all two hundred million virtual portals were filled at once.

Unfortunately for Aakesh, he had no time to feel glad about it since he was busy getting the payment for cultivation arts from the customers in the line.

Aakesh had heard the same line at least a few million times since the opening of the store today, and there was still quite a time left before the sunset and the store’s closing.

Aakesh could see a few new faces in the queue of more than a million people. But since the system was adamant about Aakesh himself selling the cultivation arts, he had no choice but to continue and the new customers would have to continue to wait.
