Chapter 875 A New Day For The Store(3)

Chapter 875: A New Day for the Store(3)

Ashley belonged to the Vurron race, but the pattern in the area between her eyebrows clearly stated that she wasn't a Thorron.

A pattern of a gray cone adorned her already beautiful face by the standards of the Vurrons. She belonged to the subspecies Corron. Corrons were also the mightiest and wealthiest sub-group of Vurrons.

Even in the sub-group of Corrons, Ashley had a significant background. Her father was the city lord of Corr City, the mightiest Vurron in the Kingdom. Only the city lord of Thorr City came close to the strength of Ashley's father.

Due to living like a princess all her life, Ashley had grown arrogant to the extent that she even killed strangers if she didn't like their face or their way of walking.

The Corr City's lord doted on his daughter, but he still had a limit due to his position. Since he couldn't punish his daughter, he ordered Ashley to travel to the other four of Vurron's cities. At the same time, the father ordered that if even a single killing happened by her hands, she would get imprisoned for seven million years, which was several times her and the father's combined lifespan.

Ashley knew her father was adamant when he ordered the punishment, so without making any fuss, she accepted it. Since Thorr City was next to Corr City in power and wealth, Thorr City was her first destination.

It wasn't easy to control her arrogant personality, so she had come across several conflicts even though not even a week had passed since her journey began. But the pressure of the punishment stayed above her head, so she didn't go excessively far and kill those with whom she argued.

Last night, she found her way onto Seventeenth Street. Since the story of Aakesh killing the Thorrons had spread to every corner of the street, Ashley also got to hear it. A sense of curiosity rose for the non-demon in her heart, so she decided to check the store and the store owner.

Late at night, she reached there and knocked on the store's door but got no response from the inside. She was on the verge of flaring up when someone from the nearby store kindly warned her about the cruel tendency of the store owner.

At this point, Aakesh's strength and background had become legendary in the hearts of those who listened to the situations of others. Every mouth left the story with exaggeration, so now the non-demon's strength was only second to the city lord in Thorr City.

Ashley didn't believe the rumors about the non-demon's exaggerated strength, but she still backed down in case they turned out to be true. She had an early Divine Lord level cultivation, so she didn't need protection when her father ordered her to travel through the four cities.

The stranger also told her about the store's opening time since that was the time for the night store managers to leave. Ashley gave some money to the stranger and left the area.

Ashley stood at the door and tried to look inside since she couldn't accept the fact that she was unable to see or hear anything going on inside the store.

Thud!

The next moment, a warning came from the system to stop. Since Ashley's senses were intrusive, invisible energy appeared and knocked her several meters backward.

It was just that the system had controlled its strength, so Ashley didn't get knocked too far or get any severe injuries. Ashley couldn't help but look at the store in shock, as she was an early Divine Lord.

'Maybe the rumors about the strength of the non-demon are true after all,' Ashley thought in her heart as she believed the non-demon to be the reason behind this reaction. At the same time, she also grew angry, as she didn't think her actions warranted such a reaction. She only tried to look inside at what was going on without entering. Ashley didn't intrude on the personal life of the non-demon.

Ashley was arrogant but not stupid. If someone could knock her down so easily without her even realizing it, the strength gap between the two parties was not something she could easily bridge.

Ashley understood this, so she quickly pushed the thought of asking for an explanation back into her heart. She would do it once her father was here. She would then punish the non-demon for doing this.

Ashley then took a deep breath as a fake smile emerged on her face. She stood up and patted her clothes, ignoring the weird and terrified looks of the passersby.

***

Aakesh saw everything happening outside the store. His face was weird since he could see through the thoughts of the female Corron.

Since she hadn't done anything that could be considered harming the store or breaking the rules, Aakesh didn't care about it and waited for her to enter the store.

***

Ashley took a deep breath at the store's gate and only then took a step inside. The view in front of her changed as she finally could see what was going on inside the store.

She couldn't help but look below as she felt the solid ground beneath her feet. Whenever she walked, the ground beneath her would tremble if she didn't control her energies.

When Ashley entered the store, she had pushed half her energy into her legs, so she could move back at the spur of the moment and then run.

The ground shouldn't have been able to stand it, but when she looked at the floor, she understood why nothing happened, and at the same time, a shocked expression appeared on her face.

"ETERNITY STONE!" Ashley couldn't help but exclaim loudly in shock.

The rarity of the Eternity Stone wasn't something that people of Ashley's level could know, but her luck was such that she had come across another Eternity Stone.

Ashley's father, the city lord of Corr City, was one of those who personally knew the King of the Kingdom. During one such meeting with the King and her father, Ashley had also tagged along.

At that moment, the King had shown her the Eternity Stone, which was only the size of her nail, and proudly boasted about it.

Ashley fell silent after her outburst, as she didn't know what to feel at that moment.

The King of her Kingdom, a True God, proudly boasted about the Eternity Stone when it was only the size of her nail, and here, in front of her, the entire store's floor was laden with the Eternity Stone.

'How can there be so much difference between people?' Ashley wondered in her heart.

Ashley had noticed her father's envious expression when the King had boasted about the tiny piece of stone at that time.

At the same time, a hint of greed also rose in Ashley's heart as she thought about telling her father and the King about the presence of the Eternity Stone. But at that moment, her eyes came across the indifferent eyes of the store owner.

Ashley couldn't help but feel a chill crawling down her spine as she thought it was a warning and threat from the non-demon.

Aakesh, unaware of his casual stare at the girl that had resulted in her misunderstanding, took back his eyes.

Ashley heaved a sigh of relief when Aakesh looked the other way. At the same time, she pushed her greed for the Eternity Stone somewhere deep in her heart. As for forgetting about it, Ashley wasn't one to easily let go of something she thought of or desired.

It would be seen in the future whether she would succeed or change herself.

Ashley then looked around the store, only to feel another surprise in her heart. The space inside the store clearly didn't match the building area of the store. The inside space was more than double the outside space.

Ashley was aware of the space expansion arrays, but they were too expensive. Even the King could barely afford the lowest-grade array that only doubled the space after earning taxes for millions of years.

Ashley found the space expansion array inconsequential in comparison to the entire floor covered by the Eternity Stone. It was easy for her to digest its appearance.

She then focused on the three rooms and the counter. Just like from the door, she couldn't sense what was inside the three rooms. Ashley was in no mood to repeat her mistake of forcing her senses inside the rooms, so she stopped and approached the non-demon after taking a single glance at the pill counter.

"Are you the non-demon that killed several Thorrons a few days ago?" Ashley asked. Ashley wanted not to sound arrogant, but due to living arrogantly for so long, her tone had reflexively turned haughty.
