The First Store System

Chapter 1065: Complete!

Giri really liked the Bister Sparrow. Even though its quality was only higher, it was still sure to breach the threshold and become a True God level creature.

After making her decision, Giri immediately turned around and left the room, with the customer behind her getting his turn to complete the summon.

When Giri exited the room, she found Aakesh in conversation with another customer, so she joined the queue and began to wait for her turn to arrive.

The wait didn't continue for long, and a few minutes later, it was Giri's turn.

"Store owner, I want to initiate the taming battle," Giri requested Aakesh and passed over the card to him.

Aakesh took the card, tapped twice on the storefront's pattern at its back, and returned it to Giri.

After what felt like hours to Giri, she won the battle against the Bister Sparrow and returned to the store. Like others, she also felt surprised by the time flow.

"You need to pay 13,000 higher, eleven ordinary, and one hundred ten lesser Sacred stones," Aakesh announced after only the payment step was left.

Giri nodded, and soon after, the payment got deducted from her store card. A smile spread across her face, and she then left for the weapons room, trying to find a suitable replacement for her slightly-damaged sword.

After the sale was complete, system alerts bombarded Aakesh's head in its mechanical, emotionless voice.

[Ding!]

[Host, congratulations on the sale of the thousandth beast in the Beast Summoning Device! The commission for the sale of the Bister Sparrow has been transferred to you.]

[The mission reward: Twenty-five purer higher Sacred stones, has been transferred to the system space.]

[Host, please see the quest window for your new quest.]

The next moment, a blue window containing the details of the new quest appeared in front of him.

[Mission Sequence: Second,

Mission Objective: Sell Beasts,

Requirement: Host, the store has successfully sold one thousand beasts to customers. Now is not the time to become lazy, but it's time to increase your part further and make more customers interested in the product,

Number of beasts you need to sell: 1,000,000,

Time Limit: 3600 Days

Mission reward: Unlock of True God, Lesser God, Higher God, and Supreme God beasts,

Failure Punishment: The disappearance of ten random beast species from the summoning selection and no commission for three years for the beast sales.]

Aakesh looked at the screen in front of him and read the quest's details.

As Aakesh had expected, the difficulty of the beast quest grew. The first objective required him to sell a thousand beasts in 360 days.

Aakesh completed it with ease, and that had to do with the event on the Nightless Day. Before that, the beast's sales were ordinary, and only a few bought them. But the emergence of the competition pushed many customers over the edge of their conundrums, and they bought it.

The competition showed the strength of the beasts sold by the store. So after it was over, their popularity grew even further. So much so that on the competition day, Aakesh wouldn't have even reached the one-fourth mark, but only in around a month after the event, the store sold more than eight hundred beasts, fulfilling the requirement with Giri's purchase.

It was only the second quest in the beast's sequence, and the system already wanted the store to sell a million in 3600 days. The requirement had grown by a thousand times, but the deadline had only grown by ten times.

When Aakesh looked at the reward, Aakesh stopped pondering over the difficulty as it was acceptable. Once the store fulfilled the requirements, the store would unlock a higher level of beasts, further increasing the sale volume as many already beast owners would be eligible to make the second purchase.

Aakesh then waved his hands, and the screen disappeared, waiting for him to call it when needed.

***

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Aakesh was relaxing on his chair when he heard the sound of footsteps coming from the door. He opened his eyes and turned in that direction. An unfamiliar face welcomed his sight.

Tira looked surprised as she stood in front of the ordinary building. Despite being a Lesser God, she couldn't see what was going on inside the building.

It surprised her that despite this area being backward, there was still someone who could afford to place such an array. Even the top organizations wouldn't splurge like this, so she became curious and stepped forward.

The next moment, her eyes almost popped out as she saw the inside. It was like a different world altogether.

Tira recognized the Eternal Stone, as her father's master had one. But that was only the size of a room; here, there was Eternal Stone as far as the eyes could see.

Tira's eyes then fell on the blue-skinned store owner. Her eyes grew wide as she didn't recognize Aakesh's race. Even though she was only a Lesser God, the amount of knowledge she possessed could even put Supreme Gods to shame.

Tira's talent in cultivation wasn't that bright, so she had only reached an intermediate Lesser God, despite being three billion years old. Tira didn't have an ordinary background, as his father served a Sacred Monarch, while he himself was a Sacred King.

Since her talent in cultivation wasn't that bright, she spent her time reading about the Sacred Dimension and the Multiverse. So her knowledge was high, and she rarely came across a race she didn't know about. It made sense if there was a race staying in secret, but here, Aakesh was doing business in public, so how could he be from a hidden race?

The curiosity about the store further grew in Tira's heart. She stepped forward and approached him.

The last time Tira had a breakthrough was two billion and seven hundred million years ago, so this long period of no progress had tamed down her character. Before that, she was extremely arrogant, as she was the only child of a Sacred King father and a Supreme God mother.

"Hello, are you the store owner?" Tira asked. Her tone contained no respect for Aakesh, but at the same time, it also had no disdain for him, despite his cultivation being only an early Divine Transformation.
