The First Store System

Chapter 375 – Addition

Chapter 375: Addition

After reaching Level 51, Aakesh stopped using his class skills to gain levels. He wanted to complete some quests, so he began searching for them.

After searching for around an hour, he finally came across a quest that rewarded him an increase of three levels, and it was also under his control.

He readily accepted that, but before he could begin the quest, the system informed him about the near sunrise. After getting the information, Aakesh decided to exit Panagea and complete the quest on his next entry.

The next moment, he disappeared from the Panagea and appeared in the portal room.

He then left the portal room, and soon, the floating door of his room, and not long after it, the stairs connecting it to the floor appeared.

"Click!"

With a clicking sound, the door automatically opened, while Aakesh climbed up the stairs.

Time flew by.

After taking a bath, Aakesh climbed down the stairs. Soon both the door and the stair disappeared.

Aakesh then took a step forward in the direction of the door.

When reached, he grabbed the handle and slid it open. As usual, a large crowd standing outside the store welcomed him.

They all had the same look of tension and determination like every past day since everyone wanted to be in the first group of Panagea.

Aakesh didn't let them wait for long. He turned around and went to his comfortable chair while the crowd poured in the store like a raging river.

In no time, the overcrowded street turned usual.

"Eh!" Everyone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise, seeing that today there was no golden light surrounding the customers.

Many of the customers understood the reason behind it, so they grew excited. They then looked at Aakesh for confirmation. Similarly, those who didn't understand the situation looked at Aakesh to find the cause.

"The number of virtual portals has increased so all of you can enter the Panagea at the same time," Aakesh didn't let them wait for an answer for long and right away, expressionlessly solved the curiosity of the customers.

The customers couldn't help but grow excited, hearing this piece of information.

Many customers had to leave the store after not getting into the first group due to their work, but now that they wouldn't have to go back, how could they be not excited.

"How many virtual portals have you added, senior?" One of the customers in the group asked.

"A thousand," Aakesh expressionlessly answered the man.

The customer then looked around him and found the number of customers to be 537. After the addition of a thousand virtual portals, the number had been increased to 1150, which meant there were still more than six hundred spots left for only the first group to get filled.

He then looked at his other group members and got the same answer from them, what he was thinking.

He then took out his supreme card from his space ring and contacted his family member right away. The man and the group belonged to the Esh clan, and they were the hundred alchemist apprentices that used to enter Panagea daily.

Since there were so many vacant portals left, the clan members decided to call their friends and relatives who also wanted to enter Panagea.

The members of the Esh clan weren't the only ones doing this. Kuriati also called his father since he had been interested in entering Panagea and had been waiting for the situation like today to arrive so that he wouldn't have to wait.

Kuriati took out his supreme card and tapped on the zigzag pattern. The next moment, his contact list appeared in his mind.

He only had to think of calling his father. The next moment, a 3D projection of his father only visible and audible to him appeared in front of him. Since his father hadn't accepted the call, the eyes of the projection were closed.

"What happened? Are you in trouble?" A voice echoed not long after Trihan picked up his son's call.

"Father, the day you've been waiting for has arrived. Store owner had added a thousand portals for Panagea, and more than six hundred spots are vacant for now," Kuriati ignored Trihan's concern and instead stated his purpose for calling his father.

In response to his information, Kuriati only got silence. He didn't have to think of a reason for it. The next moment teleportation occurred in the store. When the light receded, the figure of his father welcomed his sight.

Only a few seconds had passed since Aakesh informed the customers about the addition of virtual portals, and the spots had already gotten filled.

The majority of the remaining spots for the first group were taken back by the members of the Esh clan, as they directly teleported into the store like Trihan.

Robert, the winner of the third-ranked territory in Panagea, also called around twenty new customers.

He also had completed the organization quest in Panagea and was now recruiting members for it.

Unlike Maria, he decided not to take already adventurer into his organization. Instead, he took the talented disciples of the organization he knew into his organization.

As for letting the Panagea be a secret so that his competition doesn't get more competitive, he made the twenty disciples he had chosen to take a vow, with Dharma as the judge.

If anyone dared to break the vow and tell others about Panagea, the Dharma would cripple them. Only beings of the Sacred dimension and above would be able to break the vow, so Robert was confident about it.

As for Eris, the owner of the first-ranked territory, he had no interest in creating an organization and recruiting members.

From the day Eris had learned about the Absolute stone as the reward for the trial, he only had a single goal. It was getting as much stronger as possible in the duration.

The customers who didn't want to call anyone had no one to call or didn't have the superior or supreme card didn't wait for the remaining customers to arrive. They instead paid their sum and entered the portal room(Only the non-card users).

After their familiar counterpart had arrived, the customers began entering the portal room and then Panagea.

A few seconds later, only Aakesh remained in the store. All the customers had entered the Panagea.
