Primordial Dimensions
Chapter 19: Taking advantage of the system
Sighing in relief, Shane stored the female mountain boar and another adolescent mountain boar, before he noticed that space within his spatial rings was fully crammed.
`Oh...there was this problem..` Shane lamented, as he entered his lowest-basic shop [NoPainNoGain] and threw the corpses into two of the vacancies.
Laughing inwardly, Shane was happy to have heard of this loophole made by the System.
Every item placed in the shop would vanish from the spatial ring and appear within the vacancy.
Due to the mountain boars being two different ranks, two vacancies were used.
[2x(low-Wild) adolescent [Mountain Boar] [3x(low-Wild) [Mountain Boar] were stored only a minute after the battle was finished and Shane's spatial rings were still completely empty.
It was only due to the `stacking` of corpses and items within the exhibition, that Shane was able to do that and the prices he labeled the corpses at, were 1 and 2 silver respectively, which was roughly the price he would gain from the DeepMountain shelter, as the hide, tusks and meat were useful.
If someone would purchase the corpses from his shop, why not? And if nobody purchased them, Shane didn't mind taking them out later to sell them to a butcher or the [Beast Paradise] that bought all beasts for slightly below the average price.
Unfortunately, items that were placed within the store, couldn't be sent over a long distance through the system once again, like Shane wanted to do with the Nightshade flowers.
Storing the Nightshade flowers within the store and sending them later in batches to the Corvi race was not possible, because the system set a trading ban on the items placed within the store.
This was also the cause why Shane had to purchase the five cubic meters spatial ring.
He had to store the Nightshade flowers within his spatial ring to send them to the Coriv race through the system without using the store.
One could say it was unfortunate but Shane had to purchase a spatial ring either way, as his one cubic meter spatial ring couldn't store beasts like the mountain boar, due to their length exceeding one meter, even if it was only slightly.
As such his five golds weren't wasted and the only thing he had to reconsider was that Shane had to gain a fortune due to his high investment into the spatial ring.
There was still a vacancy left inside his store, but he wanted to let it open for the possibility of encountering a mid-low mountain boar.
Shane decided to go further into the forest because the blood caused by his small slaughter would most likely attract a few beasts.
While walking around, Shane asked himself how many `berserk` beasts he had to kill, before he would gain the title he aspired.
It was said to be one of the easiest accessible titles and there were still more than enough humans that didn't have a single title, even after years, which was probably caused by their laziness.
Titles could cause all kinds of different advantages and effects, but they were useful in almost all cases.
Except for a few titles, that caused humanity to see the humans rather unfavorably.
[Species-slaughterer] for example was the title of someone who massacred his own race...
A certain mass murderer his father killed, had the title which gave him a huge enhancement in strength and caused his skill to be enveloped in a dense blood aura which increased his lethal power by a large margin.
Even though his father was on a higher stage, it was said that this man could almost fight on par with him.
There were still another few reasons why that was possible, like certain skills he received from a hostile race, but the main factor was the title.
Since Shane found that out, he started to research about titles and the easiest achievable was apparently [Berserk-Hunter], but within the thread, there was not many helpful information.
As such, Shane searched around for more mountain boars as their group always had a female boar within them.
Deciding to kill the female boar as last, Shane felt cruel, but becoming stronger was more important to him than being merciful.
'If dad heard my words, would he be proud?' Shane thought as he remembered the disgust in his father's eyes when he rejected killing other living beings at the tender age of 8 years.
Thinking about his life, Shane wasn't sure what exactly he should do about his father... Was he loved or raised up to become a killing machine? Shane didn't know but the last ray of hope was his first life.
Gripping it with all his might, Shane wouldn't end up like the killing machine, his father wanted him to be, with a few exceptions he would decide without anyone manipulating him.
Shane would rather end everything with a treaty, to let all races end up with a win-win situation, and only if every effort is wasted without a different outcome, Shane would want to fight.
But considering other beasts, he was already immune to see them as anything else except as a mean to hone his skills and earn money.
Not much time passed until Shane had found his next prey and there was only a small group with a single-family consistent of mother boar, adolescent mountain boar and a male boar.
Sneaking up to them, Shane killed the matured male without much effort, before evading the female mountain boar's charge with nimble steps, and before anything else could happen the adolescent mountain boar also rushed at him.
This was however much better for Shane, as he thrust his dagger into the sides of the charging adolescent mountain boar until it crushed into its mother, where it died after letting out a painful squeak.
Hearing its offspring dying, the mountain boar's hair stiffened and its eyes turned bloodshot red, filled with the deep hatred it generated against the being that destroyed its whole life.
Turning around, the mountain boar couldn't see Shane, and looking up, it noticed the being that killed its offspring pouncing on its back, where he stabbed his dagger towards the mountain boar's neck.
Shane adjusted his position immediately after he seriously injured the adolescent mountain boar.
He wanted to wait until the mother boar finished her transformation into the berserk mode but it happened faster than expected, which caused him to push himself from a nearby tree while circulating some mana into his lower body.
Thanks to his already high physique and the circulation of mana, he pushed himself two meters above the ground, where the boar couldn't see him.
Thrusting towards its neck, the mountain boar's life essence vanished after a wrathful shaking of its whole body as if it couldn't accept the current situation.
Having killed two berserk beasts, Shane began to wonder how many of them he had to enrage until he would receive the title.
Throwing the additional corpses into his store, Shane noticed that not a single one had been sold, which was not that uncommon, as his store was way too small for anyone to notice and the quantity he provided was not enough.
Without reputation, Shane would never receive anything, except with desperate races like the Corvi race that probably employed hundreds of merchants to search for all kinds of darkness transmuting items all over the Primordial Shops.
Shane was probably only one of a few thousand that received such a bootlicking message from the Corvi merchant like he did but Shane thought that not many had probably the same luck as he had when he tricked the merchant's assistant.
He estimated that she was relatively new to her job and not that proficient with the system's regulations, which caused her to make such an amateur mistake.
Even though the system was rather crude with its prices, he couldn't say anything bad about it, except that one had to rely on it to grow stronger and survive.
Its regulations were mostly fair and until now, Shane had never heard about essential unfair treatment the system gave humans or other races.
There may be some but even the loophole from the system played into Shane's hands, as such there was no reason for him to decline it.
