The First Store System

Johanna looked dumbfounded after calculating the total cost she needed to pay for buying all the five grades of Art of the Doom.

‘How can I be so stupid and not consider the price of the art in the equation?’ Johanna thought in her heart as she had been in a dilemma of whether to start over or not when she should have first calculated the price before considering such things in her heart.

Now that she had made up her mind, Johanna knew she had to buy the cultivation art, especially after she did the preview of the Mortal grade Art of the Doom.

‘Should I ask father for money?’ Johanna then thought in her heart.

Johanna came from an affluential family with a top background. She was the favorite of her father. It was just that she didn’t like her family’s cultivation art, so when she found a cultivation art she preferred in one of the ruins on her travels, she changed her family’s art with the newly found one. Her father was angry with her since the family’s cultivation art was the hard work of his ancestors. But since Johanna was his favorite, he couldn’t stay mad at her for long and forgave her.

‘No, I shouldn’t. Father has already helped me a lot,’ As soon as the thought arose, a counter to it also rose in Johanna’s heart._.

Johanna then decided not to ask her father for money and think of other ways when suddenly an inspiration appeared in her heart.

Johanna had been in Panagea for several decades and was a Level 150+ adventurer, so she also had some wealth in Panagea.

The customers could take out Primal stones from Panagea after paying an outrageous rate of five thousand percent.

Five thousand low Soul stones of Panagea would help Johanna take out one superior Primal stone in the actual world.

A supreme Primal stone had a conversion rate of one million superior Primal stones.

Johanna would have to spend five billion low Soul stones just to get a single supreme Primal stone which was not a good exchange in her eyes, and she also didn’t have that many low Soul stones.

Johanna’s net worth in Panagea was five billion low Soul stones and around one billion medium Soul stones.

A medium Soul stone had an equivalent value of one million low Soul stones. If she were to convert it, she would get a bigger sum.

But if Johanna were to convert the sum, she would be an idiot as the conversion rate in Panagea was different from it in the Primal dimension.

Panagea was a high-level space where the creatures from the three dimensions inhabited. So a stone carrying slight energy equivalent to the Sacred dimension may not be that big of a deal in Panagea, but the same couldn’t be said for the Primal dimension.

If one low Soul stone was equivalent to one superior Primal stone, one medium Soul stone was equal to a hundred thousand supreme Primal stones.

Johanna had one billion, two hundred sixty-four million, seven hundred eighty-five thousand, and three hundred seventy-two medium Soul stones in total.

If she were to convert all of them into the Primal stone, she would get more than one trillion supreme Primal stones, which would be enough for Johanna to buy all five cultivation arts at once even if she were to only use the money from Panagea.

But the world wasn’t so rosy. The five thousand percent exchange rate meant one medium Soul stone would be equivalent to twenty supreme Primal stones after taking it out.

If Johanna were to convert all her Primal stones, she would get around twenty billion supreme Primal stones. It was enough for her since she was only fifteen billion short of the total amount she needed to pay for buying all the five grades of the Art of the Doom.

Since she was an Immortal, it cost her a trillion supreme Primal stones to use the Gods & Demons level training area for an hour.

Johanna’s year limit was coming to an end, so she had already prepared that amount since she wanted to enter the day her cooldown ended.

Unfortunately, she would have to start preparing again since the Immortal grade Art of the Doom cost her more than a trillion supreme Primal stones.

After making up her mind, Johanna communicated with her supreme card and almost exchanged all her medium Soul stones for supreme Primal stones.

The next moment, she got an alert in her head, notifying her that the exchange was successful and the amount got transferred to the space inside her supreme card.

After she got the money, she didn’t waste any time in the cultivation room and exited it. A queue of a few million people welcomed her sight after leaving the room.

If it were earlier, Johanna would have gotten scared about the doubts rising in her mind about the cultivation art while she waited for her turn to come. But now that she had read the mortal grade Art of the Doom, there was no doubt in her mind about purchasing it and starting over once again.

Time flew by. Thinking about what her father’s reaction would be, Johanna didn’t even know when her turn arrived, and she currently stood in front of Aakesh.

***

As the customer left, another customer welcomed Aakesh’s eyesight. It was a female with five pages in her hands, while a virtual book was floating next to her.

All the details of the cultivation art appeared in Aakesh’s head as he took a glance at the virtual book. This time there was a new piece of memory in Aakesh’s head. It contained the details of the other four grades of the cultivation art.

“Store owner, I want this cultivation art,” Johanna respectfully requested Aakesh and handed him all the five pages.

“You need to pay one trillion..,” Aakesh expressionlessly told the total price of the cultivation art the woman needed to pay.

Johanna was already aware of it since she had emptied her treasury in Panagea for it.

The next moment, an alert appeared in Johanna’s head, asking whether she wanted to pay or not.

Time flew by.

The virtual book started materializing, and soon, five physical books appeared in Johanna’s hands after Aakesh got the notification of the successful payment.
