The First Store System

Chapter 1071: Unfamiliar yet Familiar!

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Aakesh was relaxing on his chair when Garos left, but not long after, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the store.

He opened his eyes and turned in that direction; an unfamiliar face greeted his sight.

It was a non-demon and a strong cultivator at that. Even though the face was unfamiliar, its aura wasn't. It didn't take long for Aakesh to find the source of familiarity.

Aakesh remembered that months ago, Alfred had come to him with the complaint that he was either getting an ultimate quality beast or an inferior quality beast. At that time, Aakesh had found the source of his fortune to be a strong cultivator who possessed Alfred. The aura leaking from the man was the same as that person.

A smile spread across Gagan's face as he stood in front of the store. After a long search and trip, he found the store.

Even though Gagan was excited to see why fate had pointed him toward the store, there was still a mix of a grave in that expression. The memory of his mark getting erased effortlessly by the store was still fresh in his mind.

Calming down, Gagan stepped forward and soon entered the store. The surroundings around him changed.

A surprised expression appeared on his face when he saw the plethora of Eternal Stone used as a floor in the store. He soon calmed down, and his eyes finally fell on the blue-skinned store owner.

The same eyes filled with indifference greeted his sight. Gagan took a deep breath and approached Aakesh.

If others knew that Gagan was a Sacred Emperor and yet he was acting like this, many would mock him. But as the saying was, the more people knew, the more terrified of power they became. The same was the condition of Gagan.

***

Gagan belonged to the race of Astrolings. The Astrolings were creatures that primarily focused on astrology. These creatures were taller, but they were very thin. Their skin was the same as the moonlight. Their hair was black with streaks of moon-like hair, while their eyes were bright yellow, which seemed to encompass a star in each pupil.

The Astrolings was a top race that had dealt with many events. Yet they had maintained their position due to their vast knowledge of the stars and fate.

The Astroling's fertility was extremely low, so their numbers weren't that high, but even then, the vast majority of their population was above the Supreme God level in cultivation. At the same time, they were also very arrogant, but since the two Sacred Creators stood behind them, no one dared to take action against them.

Gagan was also arrogant, but the scene of that day made him know that the store wasn't something he could act arrogantly against, so he was in his most peaceful state of mind.

"Hello, store owner," Gagan greeted Aakesh. The excitement of getting to know what fate had in store for him currently surpassed all his fears of being behind the store.

Aakesh only nodded in response and waited for the man to ask the question.

Gagan almost exploded after seeing Aakesh's silent response, but he controlled himself, thinking of the being behind the store. He didn't want to find himself on the store's blacklist or, worse, pass away before finding out why he came across this store.

***

"The store currently sells five products…" Aakesh began the introduction of the products after Gagan finally asked about them.
When the introduction ended, Gagan looked surprised since the products of the store didn't impress him that much. Panagea impressed others, but not him. Astrolings' cultivation levels would automatically grow with time as they continuously tried to study the stars and fate. He wasn't an adventurous guy, so it held no value for him.

Cultivation arts, weapons, and pills were very low level for him to use, so they also held no value for him. After excluding them, only the beast was left.

Gagan trusted his divinings, so he decided to check the beasts sold by the store.

"Store owner, what kind of beasts related to astrology are available to summon?" Gagan asked since he had decided to summon the beast.

Aakesh answered his questions one by one, and after all his doubts related to the beasts were satisfied, he decided to begin the summoning.

***

Gagan's eyes expanded violently when he saw a beast on the murals painted across the walls. It was a tortoise, and on its shell was a pattern of stars as if it were the creation of the world.

Gagan couldn't help but sigh as the beast on the mural wasn't currently available. It was a Star-Spotted Tortoise, a creature of the third dimension and a very strong one at that.

Gagan then studied a few more beasts painted in the murals since he had nowhere to go. The more he saw, the more heartbroken he became at the fact that he couldn't summon the majority of them.

Sensing the disappointment rising in his heart, Gagan decided to end the sightseeing project and chose to begin the summoning.

Gagan looked at the beast card in his hands. It was his first summon. It wasn't of the ultimate quality he had expected, but it was a good beast.

The Starry Lynx was a stunning beast. It had a sleek, white fur coat adorned with silver and gold star patterns. Its eyes were a bright, piercing blue, and its long, pointed ears were tipped with silver.

It was only his first summon, so Gagan wasn't sure whether he wanted the beast or not.

"Since I can't be sure, let's do the summoning again," Gagan mumbled after fighting over whether to choose the Starry Lynx.

Gagan then went to the compartment placed right of the screen and set the card there. He then returned and pressed the switch, beginning the second round of summoning.

The square light began to rotate at an unprecedented speed, and soon, five seconds later, a beast appeared on the screen.

Not long after, a card emerged out of thin air and flew into his hands. It was an ultimate quality late Divine Being beast since Gagan had set the summoning system to random.

A few seconds later, Gagan returned the card since he didn't like it. He didn't even have to fight in his heart whether he wanted it or not.

Time flew by, and it was finally the seventh round of summoning. The square light was rotating at an unprecedented speed, while there was a 6 at top of the screen.

Five seconds passed in the blink of an eye, and soon a beast appeared on the screen.

It was the same Starry Lynx. Gagan had already made his decision after seeing the beast, and when he saw the details on the card, he became sure of it.
