The First Store System

Chapter 220: Titans and Hygars

Seeing the man dying, Aakesh stopped the skill, 'Watcher', and the next moment, the screen disappeared.

He had spent quite a sum on the products required to make the badge. Since this isn't a product related to the store, Aakesh had to buy the material from the store at the market price.

But he bargained with the system, and in the end, it offered him more than a 90% discount on the materials because the store's status depended upon the worth of the present. Even still, his total bill came to be 18 billion supreme Primal stones. If he hadn't got a commission from the Gods & Demons level training area, he wouldn't have been able to afford it.

"Hey, system, what do you think about me selling my creations to the customers?" He suddenly asked the system in a joking tone.

If the system didn't give him a discount, the total cost of the material would've come to around 200 billion supreme Primal stones. It took him around 40 minutes to complete the construction. If he were to sell the badge, it would've cost at the very least 500 billion supreme Primal stones, even in the worst case.

Only from forty minutes of work, he made more than twice the amount he would need to spend, even in the worst cases.

[Sure, Host! But you can only do it when none of the customers has to wait for your service.]

The system emotionlessly replied.

Aakesh was only joking, but he never expected the system to agree with his idea since it would be detrimental to the product sold in the store.

"What if the customer stops buying from the store and only buys my created products?" He asked as he had got curious after the system's previous response.

[Host, the customer, would only choose what's best for them. When the customer sees the disparity of the work between the products, they would automatically choose the store.]

Aakesh couldn't help but turn dumbfounded, hearing the comeback from the system. If he didn't know that the Yantra race has absolutely no emotions or sense of humor, he would've thought the system played back the joke on him. The best word to describe the Yantra race was apathetic.

Aakesh had no comeback, so he fell silent.

"Hey, strange blue person, what kind of products do you sell in this store?"

Aakesh was relaxing on his chair when a new customer entered the store and asked Aakesh in a childlike voice.

He opened his eyes, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He wasn't the only one, the other customers in the customer had the same reaction.

The owner of the childlike voice had the body of a snake that had six heads, but only three of the heads had their eyes open. The other three heads were covered in some strange mucus and looked it would take some time before they opened their eyes and saw the world. From right where the heads popped out were a pair of brown wings, although they were not fully developed. It was a Hygar.

"Did you run away from your family?" Aakesh, instead of answering the boy, expressionlessly asked the child.

The Hygar mothers are known for their overprotective nature toward their children. It would be impossible for any Hygar mother to let her child at the boy's age roam the world alone.

Even though the boy had the shocking cultivation level of Tao Seed, it was still not enough for the Hygars to allow their children at this age to move out of their camp.

"You…you, Ho…how did you know?…"

It was as if Aakesh had touched some raw nerve. The purple scale on the boy's face turned red from embarrassment.

He was already three years old, but his mother wouldn't let him leave her side. Today, his big sister, who had already opened five heads, and was on verge of opening the eyes of the six heads, helped him by giving him a traveling talisman.

After seeing his freedom only a step away from him, he couldn't stop himself and directly crushed the talisman. The next moment, he somehow had appeared right at the door of the store.

Even though he had never left her mother's side, he still had basic knowledge, so he knew a store sells products, and many people come here to buy them. So he also decided to enter it and experience buying anything in the store.

"Found you!" 

Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice rang inside the store.

The boy had a change of reaction, and he slowly moved one of his three heads back, and there he saw his mother standing at the door, glaring at him.

"Hehe, Mother, why are you here? I was only traveling the mortal area."

His voice suddenly took an opposite turn, and the tone turned as innocent as it could be.

Right at that moment, the six hours of the second group in the Panagea got over, so the system forced every adventurer out.

Eris had just left the portal room when his eyes suddenly fell on the two Hygars, and he got prepared for any attack that may come his way right away. The mother Hygar also had the same reaction as the disguise spell Eris had may have worked on others, but it didn't work on her, and she found it he was a Titan. She also prepared for any attack that may come his way.

Even though the Titans never fought the Hygars for the top race position, but there were minor skirmishes between the members of the race from time to time. How could every member of a race that had reign supreme over a dimension for countless years agree with some failed race snatching their way to the top?

The situation for Hygar was different. They may be the strongest race in the Primal dimension, but they weren't anything in the Sacred dimension, let alone the third. So when their creator, Garuda ordered them to live in the Primal dimension, most of the race members were happy. Since they loved their rule, and the Titans were the only threat to their rule.

Fortunately for both the clans, they hadn't faced a single death due to their battle, so the situation never took a turn for worse, but the relationship between them wasn't good either.
