The First Store System

Chapter 1099: A New Customer!

"You don't want to check the store's products?" Aakesh asked, seeing Katrina and Autumn showing no interest whatsoever in learning about the store.

"You even want to earn money from us?" Katrina sneered.

Aakesh stopped asking since that was his purpose in the first place. No matter what kind of relationship he had with them, he couldn't allow them to use the store's products for free; only his pets had that distinction.

Katrina couldn't help but smile upon seeing Aakesh getting silenced. Autumn didn't chime in as she was waiting for Lily to exit Panagea.

Since there were no new customers approaching him, Aakesh closed his eyes and began another relaxation session.

Katrina and Autumn had also been traveling straight for days, so they also closed their eyes and immediately fell asleep.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Aakesh was relaxing in his chair when he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the store. He opened his eyes and turned in that direction, finding an unfamiliar face standing outside the store with a pondering face.

***

'Is this really the store Lin Ren informed me about?' Xi Lun thought in his heart.

Xi Lun was an ascender from the Primal Dimension but wasn't a store customer. He ascended long before there was a store. In fact, he had been in the Sacred Dimension for several million years now.

As for Lin Ren, he was none other than the Emperor of the Xirin Empire when Aakesh managed the store in Kakot.

Xi Lun was the Emperor of the Xirin Empire once, even before Lin Ren's seventh-generation ancestor was born.

The Xirin Empire had an item that allowed the previous Emperors to communicate with the current Emperor, keeping them in the loop with the information.

During one such communication seven months ago, Lin Ren suddenly brought up the topic of the store and the store owner's return to the Sacred Dimension.

From that moment on, Xi Lun began to search for the store, and after splurging a lot, he finally found it, using the help of a diviner.

Xi Lun took a deep breath and stepped forward. As soon as his right foot landed inside the store, his surroundings changed, and he found himself inside the store, unblocked from the sound and sight blockage.

Lin Ren had shared Aakesh's appearance with Xi Lun, so it wasn't difficult to find him, but Lin Ren had informed him that the store owner had an indifferent character and didn't allow anyone else to sit on a chair. But in front of him were two extra chairs, and each had two beautiful ladies sitting on it.

Xi Lun took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it since he didn't want to come across as someone irritating in only the first meeting.

His eyes fell on the Eternal Stone, and whatever doubt he had about the store disappeared. Lin Ren talked about the luxury in the store, so only a store with an unlimited quantity of Ashamba used in flooring could have a floor covered with Eternal Stones.

"Hello, store owner!" Xi Lun greeted Aakesh.

Xi Lun's cultivation was late Supreme God, so he didn't bow, but his tone was nonetheless respectful.

Aakesh nodded in response to the man's greeting and waited for him to ask the most important question.

"Store owner, I am Xi Lun. Lin Ren recommended the store," Xi Lun introduced.

"I am Aakesh," Aakesh replied in his usual response to an introduction. He remembered Lin Ren like he knew each store customer he had tended to since the start.

***

"... these are the store products," Aakesh introduced and shared basic details about all five products in a single breath.

"Store owner, what races of top beasts are available in the Beast Summoner Device?" Xi Lun asked since he had a particular interest in the beasts sold by the store.

From what Lin Ren told him, the beasts sold by the store are even more talented than the actual creatures. At the same time, Arjuna, the founder of the Xirin Empire, also had an extremely talented pet.

Replicating the legend of Arjuna was impossible for any other Xirin Emperor, but they could still follow the way he was.

The beasts played a large role in Xi Lun trying to find the store, and splurging his wealth.

"All the top races of the Primal and Sacred Dimension are available to summon, but you would have to wait if you want beasts from the Primordial Dimension," Aakesh answered.

"Do the top races from the Sacred Dimension include extinct races as well?" Xi Lun asked. He already had the name of the beast he wanted in his mind.

"Yes, all creatures who were once part of the beast group in the Sacred Dimension are in the pool of summon.

Even if they are extinct or those creatures now form their own race outside the beast group, they will be available for summoning."

Xi Lun nodded with a wide smile and then asked a few more questions, and when he found that he was satisfied to the brim and ready to begin the summoning, he thanked, "Thank you, store owner! I will go check the Beast Summoner Device."

While Xi Lun was conversing with Aakesh, something amazing was happening in the Primal Dimension.

"Jonnah, I want to initiate the taming battle," Ryan requested, pushing the card toward Jonnah.

Ryan held a special status in the Primal Dimension since he was the first and the only inheritor of one of Aakesh's seven inheritances, which he had left before returning to the higher dimension.

Only in a few years, Ryan became a known character, and his strength was there for all to see, further increasing the chaos to search for Aakesh's remaining six inheritance orbs.

Despite becoming an inheritor, Ryan didn't enter the store until today.

Now that he had reached the peak of Immortality and was the strongest cultivator below the Void Beasts in the Primal Dimension, he found himself worthy enough to set foot inside the store owned by his master.

Even Jonnah had to treat Ryan respectfully since he was an indirect student of Aakesh.

Jonnaj grabbed the card, nodded in appreciation when he saw the beast, and then tapped twice on the storefront pattern at the back of the card.

Jonnah returned the card, and soon Ryan found himself in an unfamiliar environment.
