The First Store System



Chapter 1263: A New Day for the Store(10)

Since only the payment was left and Aapan needed to complete that with the store owner, he turned around and left the room. Grim stood there frozen for a moment since he thought that the founder would ask him to buy a beast in joy.

Since nothing of that sort happened and Grim didn't want to show his displeasure, he immediately calmed down and followed him behind.

Aapan had to join the queue since there were three customers ahead of him. Aapan was in a hurry, but he could feel the invincible energy permeating every corner of the store. He didn't dare act unruly and calmly joined the line.

The wait didn't last for a long time, as he reached Aakesh after a few minutes.

"Hello!" Aapan greeted Aakesh. His tone was neutral since Aakesh was at a lower level than him.

Aakesh silently nodded in response to the man, as he usually did with customers.

"I want to complete the purchase," Aapan said, pushing the beast card toward Aakesh. He was in a hurry, so he didn't waste his time focusing on the store and having different conversations with the store manager.

Aakesh nodded and took the card from Aapan's hands. As he took a look at it, the total purchase details appeared in his head.

"You need to pay 400 ultimate, 11,111 supreme, and 11,111 higher Sacred stones," Aakesh expressionlessly informed the man.

Since the summoning round had reached the ninth stage, the summoning cost was steep as well.

Aapan nodded and then passed over a card to Aakesh.

"The store only accepts stones…" Aakesh informed the man and then introduced the store card system to him.

The card taken out by man was a bank card that was dimensionally used in the Sacred Dimension due to its being under the control of the strongest race in the Sacred Dimension.

Only cultivators above or equal to the Supreme God could open accounts in the bank.

Aapan was taken aback by Aakesh's response since the card he handed to Aakesh was a valuable item due to it being a VIP card, and it alone cost several ultimate Sacred stones.

Aapan was then in a dilemma since he only carried the card with him wherever he went. He didn't expect a store that could sell Supreme God beasts not to have a debit facility.

Aapan suddenly turned around and looked at Grim. He then called Grim forward.

Since anyone other than the store owner and the customer couldn't hear the conversation going on between them, Grim had no idea why Aapan was calling him.

"Go and take out 500 ultimate Sacred stones from the bank," Aapan ordered Grim, handing him the bank card.

No bank on the planet Curiel could handle the payment, so Grim had to go to the bank in the galaxy. It wasn't the bank in question but a bank working under VoidBorn, and it could complete the transaction.I think you should take a look at

Grim immediately followed the order and left for the galaxy. It was a task that would take some minutes, so to pass the time, Aakesh began to learn about the store and its products.

Time flew by, and Grim returned to the store after several minutes.

At that time, Aapan was standing far from the store owner while the store owner was in conversation with someone else.

Grim respectfully returned the bank card to Aapan and then took out a mountain of the ultimate Sacred stone from his space ring.

"You have made me joyful. What do you want?" Aapan asked Grim after the payment was complete. He had also bought the Ultimate Store Card from the store since Panagea interested him, and it would be easy to travel to and from the store.

"Master, please don't belittle me. I was only doing my duty," A sincere expression appeared on Grim's face as he responded.

Aapan didn't respond but only looked at Grim. Grim couldn't bear the pressure of that stare and immediately looked down on the ground.

"You don't need to act in front of me. I know the heart of a businessman who loves profit," Aapan stated after a long pause.

How could Aapan not know that what Grim showed on the surface was only acting? If he sincerely wanted to do his duty, Grim would have never used his merit points to have one-on-one contact with him.

Grim wanted to refute this since the scene playing out in front of him could also be a ploy from the founder to test him. But before he could utter a word, the founder cut his sentence off and added, "I don't like repeating things."

***

Grim entered the beast's room after his conversation with Aapan.

The founder was in too good a mood to be true, and he let himself be taken advantage of. Grim got valuable things from the trade, even better than he had expected.

One was that he could buy a beast from the store, and the founder would pay for it. The second was that he was to become a board member once he stepped into the Sacred King level, a power level lower than the usual requirement of reaching the Sacred Emperor level.

Grim had expected a monetary prize from Aapan, but his being able to become a board member was an immensely fortunate event. That position came with a lot of power, and only the founder was in a higher position than the other board members.

The board members not only got a fixed salary of three hundred ultimate Sacred stones per month but also received ownership of a planet. All income taxes from the planet belonged solely to the member, not the organization.

Grim had a wide smile spread across his face since his destiny had completely changed at that moment. He never hoped to step into the Sacred Emperor level since the strongest and most talented member of his race was stuck at the late Sacred King level for trillions of years with no hope of further breakthroughs.

Grim was neither that much talented to surpass that level, nor was his talent in business such that he could make a profit of more than ten thousand ultimate Sacred stones in one year.
