The First Store System

Aakesh looked in surprise as the roar released by the projection disintegrated the continent as if it was nothing.

It wasn’t the only thing as the sound wave released by the roar harmed not even an inch of space around the continent.

After the projection did its work, the head looked at Aakesh again and muttered something, which was only heard and seen by Aakesh and not the Void beasts kneeling not far from them.

After the continent turned into a Seed of Creation, it automatically flew at the center of the Primal dimension, resulting in its length growing, while the law and rules turned even more stable.

“Thank you for saving the dimension,” The Void beasts approached Aakesh and thanked him.

“It was the work of the item you used. I did nothing,” Aakesh expressionlessly replied. If it were not for the projection destroying the continent, it would have taken Aakesh at the very least a few hours to achieve his goal, and in that time, the dimension would have lost a lot of its space and the lives living there.

Time flew by.

After conversing for a few more seconds with the Void beasts, Aakesh returned to the store where Lily, Autumn, and Katrina were waiting for him.

“I have completed my promise,” Aakesh expressionlessly told Autumn and Katrina.

“After the destruction of the continent, it gave birth to a Seed of Creation, which in turn had helped the Primal dimension a lot,” Aakesh added, and without stopping, he continued.

“After the merger, the law stability of the Primal dimension had grown by a large margin, so as soon as you step out of the store, the rule would throw you out, making you forcefully ascend to the Sacred dimension,” Aakesh concluded.

“Thank you!”

“Thank you!”

Both Autumn and Katrina sincerely thanked Aakesh. Autumn had no interest in exiting the continent at first, and only when she lived with Katrina and Lily did she make up her mind.

On the other hand, Katrina always wanted to get out of this cage.

She was neither the mightiest nor had seen the entire continent, but for some reason, she felt suffocated as if she was trapped, so she had made that deal with Aakesh.

“I still owe you. Our deal was to help you fight the ruler, but since you did everything on your own and still went with the deal, if you ever need my help, just say so,” Katrina solemnly told Aakesh.

“Oh, I forgot something important before making the promise! Only ask for help if we are in the same dimension,” Katrina added the next moment, breaking the solemn atmosphere she herself had created.

Aakesh only nodded in response to her statement, as the Sacred dimension was still far. He still had the store upgrading quest left.

Autumn and Lily conversed for a while, and finally, the time to leave arrived for the duo.

Only Aakesh could manually open the store door, but since he had for the first time appeared inside the store after entering the portal. Aakesh had to ask the system to let Lily, Autumn, and Katrina teleport to the store, or they would get forced out of the Primal dimension. To do that, Aakesh had to pay a further ten years of his commission.

Aakesh liked this kind of exchange the most. He had no need for money since he neither needed food to eat nor treasures to cultivate. Aakesh already had a large sum in his hands. He had earned that from the Training area before he had to let go of it to make Lily an inhabitant of Panagea.

Now that Aakesh was inside the store, he opened the door.

The next moment, a wave of darkness welcomed him.

Even though Aakesh had lived for more than two centuries inside the portal, only several hours had passed in the Primal dimension, so everything was the same in the market as it was before he had left.

Autumn and Katrina stepped out of the store since it was now time to leave.

“RUMBLE!”

Suddenly the sky rumbled in anger as the dimension sensed two lifeforms exceeding the law set by the Multiverse.

Blood-red thunder started appearing in the sky. It looked like it would fall on the duo anytime.

Autumn and Katrina felt chilled as they sensed danger from the cloud of thunder.

One or two strikes wouldn’t be able to harm them, but if the entire cloud fell on them, severe injuries would be the best case for them.

The thunder never fell from the sky as a portal appeared next to both Autumn and Katrina.

If they refused to exit through the portal right away, the thunder would fall on them with its full might.

Autumn and Katrina also understood this as they looked at Aakesh and Lily and then stepped into the portal that would take them to the Sacred dimension.

The portal closed straight away as it was affecting the space around it since the energy from the Sacred dimension was too heavy for the law here to handle.

After Autumn and Katrina left for their journey into a new world, Aakesh returned to the store after closing its door.

Time flew by.

“Hey, system, how did the Primal dimension hold the attack released by Vritrasura’s projection?” Aakesh asked the system after saying bye to Lily, who entered Panagea since she missed her underlings from there.

Aakesh had been wondering about this question from the time he witnessed the destruction caused by the roar.

Aakesh felt like a tiny creature in front of that roar. If there weren’t a system to help in life-threatening situations, Aakesh was confident that he would face the same result as the continent if he were to stand in front of it.

[Host, it’s the ability of the Deva that handed the Void beasts the card! They isolated the space around the card when it got activated, and all the strength released by the attack would only affect that space, so the Primal dimension didn’t get affected.]

“Doesn’t that mean the Devas could walk in the three dimensions if they isolated the space around them, affecting no rules of the dimensions?” Aakesh asked after hearing the system’s answer.

Aakesh believed that Devas couldn’t walk on the Primal dimension and required the continent of Kashi, a piece of the fourth dimension, to stay here, but after the system’s response, the knowledge needed to change.
