Chapter 950: A New Day for the Store(1)
[Host, the ti for ditation is about to begin!]
Aakesh was traveling toward his destination when the system's voice rang in his head. Since Aakesh didn't have any prominent affairs to attend to, he disappeared from Panagea and appeared in the portal room.
Aakesh then stepped out of the portal room, and his ditation mat was already there waiting for him.
Since Aakesh had exhausted one lesser stone completely yesterday, he took out a new one and began to ditate.
Ti flew by, and hours passed in the blink of an eye.
[Host, the sun is about to rise on Thorr City!]
The system's automatic, emotionless voice rang inside Aakesh's head, breaking him away from his ditation.
Aakesh opened his eyes and habitually looked to his left. The next mont, a surprised expression appeared on his face as he found a rectangular blue window waiting for him.
[Your absorption rate has improved by 0.3%!]
Aakesh nodded in appreciation since this was his first absorption improvent in the Sacred Dinsion. Aakesh didn't waste much of his ti celebrating over it and waved his hands since the sun was about to rise on Thorr City.
Aakesh first placed the stone back in its place and summoned the door to his room. Not long after, stairs connecting the gate to the floor also erged.
Click!
Ti flew by, and Aakesh ca down from his room as the door opened with a clicking sound.
It was still around three minutes before sunrise, so Aakesh sat down on his chair, waiting for the sun to rise.
Soon, three minutes passed, and the sun rose on Thorr and nearby cities. As its first ray of light pierced through the darkness shrouding the city, people began to leave their houses for work.
On Seventeenth Street, there was a store that had only been here for less than a month, but its custors were already rich and powerful. Their numbers weren't that high, but it was still a dreaded and mysterious store in the minds of people working in other stores on the street.
With the first ray of sunlight touching the sky, the store also opened its door, announcing the start of a new day.
As usual, Aakesh found a group of custors waiting outside the store. After he opened the store, smiles erupted on all their faces. At the sa ti, there was also a slight tension evident on everyone's faces.
There were around thirty-six people in the group, of whom one was a new face and the others were regulars.
Aakesh didn't let the group wait outside as he turned around and returned to his seat. The thirty-plus custors entered the store like a tide, trying to be the first to step inside.
In no ti, all thirty-six custors were inside the store. Their faces were tense for a mont, but they soon turned wondrous as they saw the change around them.
The inside space had expanded several tis as the feeling of crowding was nowhere to be seen. At the sa ti, there was an additional room in the store. It was like a blinding golden light in the darkness of the night, so everyone noticed it.
As their eyes wandered, the custors noticed an additional row at the pill counter with the sa ten shelves.
Those who were alone thought to themselves, while those who ca with others began to discuss the changes under their breath.
"Why are the golden lights not covering the first thirteen custors?" One of the custors suddenly asked in surprise, as no one had noticed it because of the changes inside the store.
When others heard it, they also beca surprised, but soon it turned into excitent. When this situation last occurred, the number of virtual portals in the store had grown, so how could they not be excited by it?
Favan beca the first custor to approach Aakesh, as he had his mind set on Panagea from day one. Favan wanted to achieve sothing in Panagea, and since he also couldn't afford to spend money on other products, he rarely showed interest in other products.
"Hello, store owner!" Favan greeted Aakesh respectfully, as his habit had beco after coming regularly to the store since he ca here first.
Aakesh simply nodded in response. Favan already knew it, so he imdiately asked whether the number of virtual portals had grown or not.
"Yes, twenty-five virtual portals have been added. Now, there are forty-eight portals in the store," Aakesh replied expressionlessly.
Favan then paid his thirty-five lesser Sacred stones and left for Panagea, as he couldn't help but feel bad whenever there was a product in the store; he couldn't afford it. To solve this feeling, Favan decided not to ask about any other product until he had money in his hands.
Aakesh stored the money in the system space and told Favan to go ahead.
"Thank you, store owner!" Favan thanked Aakesh with a slight bow and then left for the portal room.
There was already a custor waiting behind Favan, so soon after he left, the custor approached Aakesh.
"Hello, store owner!" Ricky greeted Aakesh.
Like Favan, Ricky asked about the addition of virtual portals in the portal room. After getting a satisfying answer, Ricky finally asked about the new product.
Aakesh had been waiting for this, so he introduced the beast summoner device to Ricky in a single breath.
Ricky listened to Aakesh with complete focus, but when the topic of price arrived, he lost his focus.
'Another product that will empty my savings,' Ricky thought in his head, and soon after the introduction ca to an end, he paid thirty-five lesser Sacred stones to Aakesh and went toward the portal room.
After Ricky, it was Jemiah's turn. He showed interest in the beast's summoner device as well since it would an external help. Jemiah had money to spend, so he could try to find a suitable beast for himself. But since Panagea was the most significant, Jemiah decided to take a look at it after exiting Panagea.
Jemiah wasn't the only one, as after learning about the beast summoner device, all the custors chose to enter Panagea first and then take a look at the new product, pills, and weapons.
