The First Store System

Chapter 785: Aakesh’s Wealth!

Unaware of the bet going on between William and Elle, Aakesh was comfortably relaxing on his chairs.

It had been more than an hour since the store opened, and all the hundred billion plus virtual portals had already gotten filled by the customers.

There were already some people waiting in the store hall for their turn to arrive.

Aakesh had his eyes closed as he was relaxing when he sensed an approach toward him.

Aakesh opened his eyes and found it was a regular customer. A projection was floating next to the man while his hands held a page.

“Store owner, I want this cultivation art,” The man requested Aakesh.

Usually, he didn’t dare to go to the store owner since the store had an assistant, but currently, the assistant was nowhere to be found inside the store. The man had no choice but to request Aakesh for sale.

Aakesh took a glance at the projection floating next to the man, and soon all the details of the cultivation art appeared in Aakesh’s head.

“You need to pay three hundred fifty million supreme Primal stones,” Aakesh expressionlessly told the man the price after deducting the preview cost from the total cost of the cultivation art.

The man was already aware of the price of the cultivation art since its details contained everything, so the store owner speaking the cost was nothing more than a formality.

The next moment, an emotionless artificial voice rang in the man’s head, asking him whether he wanted to pay the price or not.

The man answered positively, and soon after, an alert simultaneously rang inside the man and Aakesh’s heads about the successful payment.

“It’s yours now,” Aakesh told the man, and soon, the projection began materializing into reality, and soon after, a book appeared in the man’s hands.

The man thanked Aakesh and then turned around. He didn’t leave the store right away but joined the few thousand meditating people in the store’s hall.

Time flew by, and around an hour had passed.

Two hours passing in the Primal dimension meant six hours of time in Panagea, so for those customers who couldn’t afford the price for additional time, their stay in Panagea came to an end.

There were numbers of customers who could only afford Panagea after working hard and had now turned into wealthy personalities. So now, they could afford all eighteen Panagea hours of stay.

Poverty was something that would exist as long as affluence remained. And since Aakesh had no intentions to change society, the wealth difference between the different walks of life in the Primal dimension continued.

The only thing Aakesh’s store did was that it provided the poor an opportunity to rise and compete against the wealthy at the same level. Even though countless poor became prosperous due to the different store products, at the same time, the wealthy became even wealthier since the store was running a business. There were bound to be products or their variants that only the rich could afford.

Panagea’s higher hour stay was one such variant, and Aakesh and the store had no plans to change it.

After their six hours of stay in Panagea came to an end, the system forced them out.

The number of empty portals crossed the fifty billion mark in just a few moments. Although that sounded like a lot, there were still around fifty billion virtual portals filled with customers.

The amount of wealth Aakesh earned alone from Panagea in a day was unimaginable. Since Aakesh had no expenses when it came to food or clothes, or other bodily needs, his wealth only grew with each passing moment.

A cultivator’s expenses mostly went to different medicines, weapons, skills, training, and various valuable materials. For Aakesh, he didn’t need such things.

The system provided him with weapons of each type in existence. He didn’t need medicines since his cultivation depended upon the quests. Aakesh didn’t need skills since he was satisfied with the ones he had gotten from the system.

Aakesh didn’t need to splurge on training since he had the system’s virtual training session with him. He neither needed to meditate since his energy stocks were more vast than anything possible for other cultivators at the same level.

Aakesh didn’t need food since he had unlimited endurance. His body never lacked energy, so there was no chance of eating.

He had Lily, who had these needs, but she was self-sufficient. Aakesh didn’t need to splurge on her.

The only expenses Aakesh had were the grand annual events held every year. Every event went out of Aakesh’s pocket since he was responsible for the rewards. On average, Aakesh spent several trillion supreme Primal stones on a single event without a single stone gained from it. Despite that, it was nothing but a drop of water from an ocean filled with money.

If Aakesh were to use his wealth, it would be enough to buy one-fourth of the Primal dimension worth of resources.

‘I should leave an inheritance for the future generation,’ Aakesh thought as he noticed a rise in his already uncountable wealth.

Aakesh did not need money, and Primal stones would also become useless after he ascended to the Sacred dimension, so Aakesh wanted to leave his wealth here and then depart.

He would leave two-thirds of his wealth to his fated future inheritors in several ruins spread across the Primal dimension, while the one-third would stay with the store, and the system would continue to manage the annual events after he left using that money.

The system had already told him that once he ascended to the Sacred dimension, his commission from the store in Kakot would disappear. He would only be able to earn from the store inside the Sacred dimension, and the system would take hold of every penny earned after he left, while it would also become responsible for paying salary to Jonnah.

Aakesh had no problems with that since the last thing he cared for in the world was money. But Aakesh didn’t forget to benefit from this decision of the system since he was losing uncalculable Primal stones from this deal.

Aakesh still remembered that the system had told him that to use the system’s help, he would have to pay the system, and the cost was too much for even the current Aakesh to bear.

From the wealth he had earned in the last thousand years, the most Aakesh could ask from the system was an attack stronger enough to kill a low-level being from the Sacred dimension.

Since money was the way to ask for the system’s help, in exchange for losing the earnings from the Primal dimension after his ascension, Aakesh asked the system to give him five chances of protection or attack, depending on the situation.

The system refused straight away since the cost to help Aakesh in the Sacred dimension was several times more than what it would need here. Aakesh also hadn’t specified any level in his request, so it was unlimited, and the system was never going to take an unfair deal.

Aakesh also wasn’t going to give up, so he ruthlessly bargained with the system.

In the end, the system and Aakesh made a deal.

There were terms and conditions now added to the deal. Both Aakesh and the system were in business, so neither of them wasn’t going to take a loss.

The deal between Aakesh and the system stated that the system would help Aakesh three times. Out of those three times, two would be only for protection while one would be for the attack. In addition to that, Aakesh could only use these helps in the Sacred dimension, and the Sacred Void beasts were not included in either protection or attack. The power gap between the Void beast and other mightiest cultivators in the Sacred dimension was way more outrageous than what it was in the Primal dimension.

Aakesh also added Lily into this deal since Lily held similar importance in his life to him.

It was the result of the fierce bargaining, and Aakesh was satisfied with the result. Aakesh had a sense that he was the one to lose in the deal since there was no time limit on the earnings from the Primal dimension, but after thinking that he was bargaining with the system, he accepted his loss if there was even one in the first place.

As for the system, it clearly stated that the deal was entirely fair for both sides.

After the group of customers left Panagea, the sitting group occupied their spots.

Several minutes later, the hundred billion plus virtual portals had still gotten filled with customers, while a few hundred customers who were late began to meditate in the store’s hall.
