Chapter 47: Traumatic
After learning the properties of the space ring, Maria's heartbeat rose in excitent. She couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm her pounding heart.
"How much ti would it take for the energy to get filled?" She asked after her heart cald down.
"Around a year, if you don't interfere in the storage," Aakesh answered after calculating.
"Senior, how much material would it take for the space ring to grow?" She asked him. How could she not know about it? She already had enough Primal stones needed to destroy the Bisan Kingdom. The energy capacity would also get filled in only a year. If she wants, she could beco the strongest in the Kingdom with only a space ring.
"108 space stones, three inch Mythril, and one world core," He casually and expressionlessly answered. Her jaw almost dropped to the ground after listening to the requirents. All the materials he listed were rare and expensive. It was easy for her to get 108 space stones with her wealth, but Mythril and the world core were currently way beyond her wealth.
"Since this is my first creation, I would give you a discount," Aakesh suddenly spoke, breaking Maria's thoughts about the materials. In the excitent, she had forgotten that she had to pay for the space ring, but he brought her back to reality.
After seeing the abilities of the space ring, she knew it would cost her a fortune. She then looked at the mountain of the Primal stones and said farewell to them.
"How much, senior?" She then asked Aakesh after making her heart determined to give up the entire wealth she gained today.
"5000 ordinary Primal stones," He responded straight away as he had already thought of a price. Maria's mouth turned wide open after hearing the price. It was too cheap for what the space ring had to offer.
"Senior, you can ask for more," She suggested, thinking Aakesh was taking a large amount of loss in the deal.
"No need, I only need 5000 ordinary Primal stones," He refused. As for more money, he did not need it since he only needed it to splurge during shopping at the Market. And, 5000 ordinary Primal stones were already a large amount of wealth.
Maria didn't say anything in response and started separating Primal stones to pay him. After several seconds, she pushed the mountain of 5000 ordinary Primal stones toward him. He only took a single look at them and snapped his fingers. The next mont, the shining mound of stones disappeared from the store.
"Good business!" He comnted. "You can leave now," He then added. Since there was no point in her staying in the store, he didn't need her presence in the store. Lily has also not woken up, so there was a little bit of worry in his heart for her.
A wry smile appeared on her face, as she was expecting it from Aakesh after getting the ring. "Thank you, senior, for the space ring and helping !" She thanked Aakesh. She then collected all the contents lying on the ground, bowed at him, turned around, and left the store.
She saw a large crowd gathered around the store after she exited the door. The entry door of the store was large, and it was also opened fully, but sohow the outsiders couldn't see what was happening inside the store if they didn't enter the store, and the sa was the case for insiders, except Aakesh.
She beca the center of attention of the crowd. The crowd started whispering to each other in the group.
"Look, she's the sa girl who was dragged inside the store."
"You're right. She looks exactly the sa."
"But, why's she uninjured? When they were dragging her, she was in bad shape."
"Why aren't the guards of the Schiller family coming out?"
After Maria ca out, the crowd had many questions about the situation, but no one dared to ask her. They didn't want to offend her in any way. There were guards and spies of the influential families in Kakot present in the crowd too. They silently left the crowd to report the information to their respective families.
Maria didn't want to face what she faced just soti before, so she rushed from the crowd with her full speed. Since she was already a Nascent Soul expert, she covered one yojana (12.87 km) in only three seconds. So of the people who followed her to find out about her weren't able to catch her. Since she had enough wealth, she decided to change her hotel to a secure one for today and move into the next store to Aakesh tomorrow.
While Aakesh went up in his room to check on Lily, he knew there was a large crowd outside the store, but he ignored it since they weren't trying to enter the store. A surprised expression appeared on his face when he entered his room. In place of Lily on her bed, lied a cocoon.
"Another breakthrough!" He exclaid in surprise, seeing the cocoon. A tense look then appeared on his face the next mont as not even a month had passed since her last breakthrough, and here she was already experiencing another breakthrough.
He already had enough knowledge about her cultivation system. There could only be a few reasons behind the sudden promotion. He refused the training as Lily hated nothing more than training. The breakthrough she had until now was only due to her talent. If she would've been an ordinary Epochal Feline, she wouldn't have even gained half of the power and skills she had right now.
"Hey, system, what do you think?" He then asked the system as the system knew things even he didn't know.
[Host, it's a traumatic breakthrough.]
The system responded right away. The next mont, suddenly, a storm of energy erupted in the room, throwing everything present in the room haywire, as Aakesh growled, "What do you an by traumatic breakthrough?"
[Host...]
Even the system was taken aback by his sudden outburst.. It was the first ti in eighty thousand years that he had beco angry or raised his voice at anybody, let alone the system.
