The First Store System



Chapter 1188: Aakesh's Warning!

Aakesh took the card from Ayriel's hands and took a quick glance at the beast on the card. Aakesh couldn't help but become surprised when he saw the Chaotic Wyrm there.

Aakesh wouldn't have cared much if it was someone else and they got the same beast, but the other side was Ayriel, the owner of the Limitless Physique.

Getting the same beast twice showed that the Chaotic Wyrms had a destiny with Ayriel. Aakesh couldn't help but wonder if Ayriel would cause the Chaotic Wyrms to appear again in the Multiverse, or were the things related to the Dragon that was linked to Vritrasura?

Aakesh didn't waste much of his time thinking over it since those things would happen in the future.

"You need to pay Ninety thousand nine hundred nine ultimate and one higher Sacred stone," Aakesh informed Ayriel.

The next moment, an alert rang in her head, asking her whether she wanted to pay through the store card. Ayriel responded yes in her head, and the next moment, the respective amount got deducted from the stones stored inside her Ultimate Store Card.

"Store owner, the same thing happened again," Ayriel said after the purchase was complete.

Aakesh immediately understood what Ayriel was referring to. The next moment, he closed his eyes and went through the entire battle sequence between Ayriel and the Chaotic Wyrm.

It all occurred in a flash, so not even a second had passed, and Aakesh had watched the entire battle.

Aakesh saw that the unconscious physique hibernating inside her had gotten even stronger and could release more power. It had nothing to do with the cultivation levels being different in the two battles.

Aakesh could sense that the physique's control over Ayriel's body had gotten stronger, making it seem that it was due to the increase in cultivation.

"You are treading on a dangerous path here. You aren't ready for it, so keep your nerves calm and don't let your mental state be stressed all the time," Aakesh warned and then suggested Ayriel in the following statement. He could understand Ayriel's motive for talking about her awakening with Aakesh.

Ayriel was scared of whatever was inside her, and whatever it was, she couldn't handle it.

After hearing Aakesh, Ayriel became even more scared since the past several years had gone terribly for her. Even though she had become someone who was liked by her mother in the eyes of others,  in reality, the relationship between Ayana and her had never been so cold.

Ayriel did not doubt that, if not for the slight consideration that she was her daughter, Ayana would have killed her that day. Whenever she would remember that conversation, her mother's cold eyes would flash in her head, making her feel chilled to her bones.

Aakesh cared about Ayriel since she held the power to destroy everything in her hands. If Ayriel went wrong, Aakesh would have had no customers left to come to the store, so he didn't want to let her awaken. She would die, but at the same time, her uncontrolled awakening would wreck the dimension, leaving only the Sacred Creator and a few of the Sacred Monarchs alive.

There was also the way of killing Ayriel and ending things before they began, but Aakesh never acted unless he was provoked, so he didn't even think of killing Ayriel. There was also the fact that she was the owner of Limitless Physique. Aakesh didn't know what the reaction of the Devas or even the consciousness of the Multiverse would be if he harmed Ayriel since there were no examples to show the result.

"Thank you, store owner," Ayriel left the line and then the store after thanking Aakesh.

As soon as Ayriel left the line, Aakesh forgot about her and focused on the next customer taking her place.

Katrina, who was sitting on the chair, looked at Ayriel with curiosity since she had been curious about what caused Aakesh to pay special attention to her since she had heard their conversation. She had tried to ask Aakesh, but he had never answered.

Since most of the customers in the line were those who were there to complete the purchase, the rate at which the queue decreased was fine.

Soon, it was William's turn. William was one of the customers who also had a special destiny, but he was nowhere near the level of what Ayriel's future held, so Aakeshd didn't pay any attention to him.

"Store owner, please complete the purchase," William requested with a sincere smile, pushing over the card to him.

Aakesh nodded and took the card from his hand. He then immediately returned the card to him, as the price appeared in his head.

"You need to pay Eighty thousand nine hundred ninety-nine ultimate and one hundred eleven higher Sacred stones," Aakesh informed.

Soon, the payment was over, and the beast was William's to summon.

William didn't immediately leave the queue but turned around and looked at Elle. The next moment, she took a step forward, standing in the same line as him.

The store didn't allow the customers to listen to the conversation between the store owner and the customer in front. But there was an option where, if the customers were familiar, they could converse with Aakesh at the same time, not worrying about the block.

"Store owner, can you tell us about Crestacin?" Elle requested Aakesh, showing him her beast card.

Aakesh was surprised at first when he only saw the legendary quality but then stopped thinking about it. Every second, the fate of the majority changed; some received better, while some were left with worse due to the reaction of their actions.

Aakesh didn't immediately answer but looked at the line behind William and Elle.

"Stay there; you can ask me when I become free," Aakesh expressionlessly stated since there were still ten-plus people waiting for their turn. Aakesh had no interest in keeping them waiting.

Willian and Elle nodded and then moved out of the queue, waiting for Aakesh to get free from customers.

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

Aakesh was finally free from the customers in front of him. He then looked at William and Elle. The next moment, they approached him with smiles on their faces.
