The First Store System

Chapter 659 A New Customer!

Chapter 659: A New Customer!

The store had been open for nine hours for the day, with six hours still remaining till the closing of the store. Yet, the number of sales of cultivation arts had already exceeded the number of purchases made yesterday by the customers.

The more increase in the sale, the more Aakesh needed to get busy, so he had been receiving customers straight for the entire day.

“Store owner, I want this cultivation art,”  A customer requested Aakesh, with a page in his hands while a virtual book floated next to him.

Aakesh took a glance at the book, and the next moment, all the information related to the sale of the cultivation art appeared in Aakesh’s mind.

“You need to pay eight hundred billion, six hundred and seventy-nine million, three hundred eighty thousand, and four hundred sixty supreme Primal stones,” Aakesh expressionlessly announced. He told the man the price he needed to pay for the cultivation art after paying the million supreme Primal stones as the preview cost.

The man was already aware of the cost since he had also seen it when he found the cultivation art, so as the store owner started speaking, he mentally communicated with the card for the payment.

Soon after Aakesh concluded, a successful payment alert rang inside Aakesh’s head. Aakesh then looked at the man and gestured him to leave since his work was done here and Aakesh still had a lot of customers to attend to.

Time flew by, and a few more hours passed.

After Lilith enjoyed her usual eighteen hours of stay in Panagea, got forced out of there by the system. As she exited the portal room, her eyes unconsciously turned toward the cultivation arts room.

‘Forget it! Let’s take a look at the shelves,’ Lilith frustratingly thought as she still hadn’t forgotten the cold feeling the shelf gave to her. It was too difficult for her to accept._.

She then turned in the direction of the room and proceeded there.

Lilith straight away went to the fifth shelf that held the Immortal grade cultivation arts since she could clearly feel a flow of energy there. She was also aware of the ability of the material, so she knew what was going on.

Lilith then touched the material and gently stroked it. It still gave a cold feeling to her.

Time flew by, and several minutes had passed in the blink of an eye.

Lilith, who despite feeling no compatibility with the material, gently stroked it continuously when suddenly the thought of checking cultivation arts emerged in her mind.

?[0)??? Lilith couldn’t help but get surprised since it was her intuition to check an Immortal grade cultivation art. The power difference between an Immortal and her was such that even if there were countless peak Immortals fighting her at once, they still wouldn’t be able to put a scratch on her body when it was only a clone of hers.

Lilith went with her intuition since people of her level rarely got false gut feelings. She then left the shelf’s side and went to the front.

Even though there were more than a few million people present in the cultivation art room currently, there was still sufficient space for everyone to stand and check the arts without any uncomfortable feeling.

Lilith, like other customers, peacefully went to the front of the shelf. She then slightly bent down since the height of the shelf was lesser than her.

From the outside, she could see that there were several books on the shelf, but when she pushed her hands in, she felt she was surveying a vast empty space. Finally, her hands came around a blockade.

Lilith didn’t wait and took out the item blocking her hands. The next moment, a page twice the size of her palm appeared in her hands.

[Name: The Art of Youth…,]

Soon, a screen only visible to her appeared in front of her, showing the summary of the cultivation.

Lilith had a disappointed face as she didn’t like the art, but since it was her intuition that had told her to check the cultivation arts, she put the art back inside the shelf and then took out another one.

One second passed, two seconds passed, three seconds passed, and just like that, seven seconds had passed.

Lilith had an irritated expression on her face since she had taken hundreds of cultivation arts out of the shelf, but not even one had come close to making her take a second glance, let alone impress her.

‘Is it one of the rare false intuitions?’ Lilith couldn’t help but think in her heart.

Despite thinking that, her hands didn’t stop, and they went inside the shelf to put the art back and then take a new one out.

As Lilith was searching for a cultivation art to prove her intuition correct, Aakesh’s store welcomed a new customer.

When the new customer entered, she had a curious look on her face. It only got bigger as her eyes fell on the giant floor formed from Ashamba and then the queue of several hundred thousand people in front of the mysterious blue-skinned store owner.

The woman then went to the queue and nudged the person above her in the line.

“Why are these many people in the line?” She asked.

As the man felt a nudge, he turned back. The next moment, his face turned red, and then his breathing got rough as he had never seen anyone more beautiful than the person he was staring at.

The man froze there, forgetting to answer. The woman nudged the man’s shoulder once again, giving life to the man.

“Sorry, I couldn’t help myself,” The man apologized as he moved his eyes away from her face and returned to normal. The man was aware of the store’s rules, so he didn’t want to offend someone over his lack of control.

“What did you want to know?” The man then asked as he had even forgotten the question.

The woman asked the same question again and got her answer. Her curiosity toward the store got even bigger as she waited for her turn to arrive and meet the mysterious store owner in person.

The man then turned back and couldn’t help but look down, only to see a plant rising there.

(A/N: I Know it’s cringe, but things are the way they are(^<>^).)

Time flew by, and several minutes passed in the blink of an eye. Due to Aakesh’s quickness, while accepting the payment, it only took eight minutes and thirty-seven seconds for the woman to clear the queue filled with so many people and reach the store owner.

“Hello, store owner,” The woman greeted Aakesh. The voice of the woman was gentle, but there wasn’t even a slight hint of respect in it, but instead, it was calm.

Aakesh looked at the customer and then nodded.

It was a human woman. Her hairs were black, and her pair of eyes had silver pupils. Her skin was slightly brown in color. She had worn a red dress that had covered her entire body, making her charm grow.

For Aakesh, things such as beauty didn’t matter, so when he looked at her, there were no emotions in his eyes. The woman, who was going to speak, suddenly stopped for a moment after seeing the look of indifference in the store owner’s eyes toward hers.

Soon, a gentle smile spread across her face as she asked for the store’s introduction.

Aakesh expressionlessly introduced all the store products to her. The woman’s eyes widened with every product Aakesh introduced.

Finally, Aakesh concluded with the introduction of the store products. As expected, the woman first bought a supreme card and left for the portal room after thanking Aakesh.

Time flew by.

When there was only an hour left before the store closing time, out of nowhere in the store’s hall, a door appeared floating in the midair.

The queue gathered around Aakesh only took a glance and moved their eyes away since they were already aware of who was beside the door.

As expected, Lily stepped out of the door, and not long after, the door and the stairs connecting it to the floor disappeared.

More time flew by, and the remaining hour till the store closing time passed in the blink of an eye.

Despite it being the store’s closing time, there was still a queue standing in the store’s hall, waiting for their successful purchase of cultivation art.

Aakesh didn’t make the customers in the queue leave, but those who were still present in the cultivation arts were told by Aakesh to stop for the day and come back tomorrow. It included Lilith as well. She still hadn’t gotten a cultivation art that could prove her intuition correct, so she had been there for several hours now.

“Can’t you-“

“Forget it, I already know you,” Lilith made a playful face and then was going to ask Aakesh to extend the time, but before she could even complete her sentence, she shut herself and stopped it. She was already aware of Aakesh’s character.

Lilith decided to search for it tomorrow. If she still didn’t get anything tomorrow, she would consider her intuition to be false. She then exited the store using her supreme card.

After telling the customers in the cultivation arts and weapons room to leave, Aakesh returned to his chair.

Time flew by.

It took three more minutes for Aakesh to complete the sale of every customer present there in the queue.

As the sale was over, Aakesh left his chair and went to the entry gate. He then closed it, announcing an end to another fruitful day for the store.

***

A/N: From tomorrow, the book will return to its usual two chapters a day schedule. I had daily functions these two days, hence the lack of one chapter these two days.
