The First Store System

Chapter 433: A Small Event!

On the continent of Anga, the sun had reached the top, the temperature had become hot, and the market had gotten busier like every other day.

Aakesh’s store had already become the most famous store in not only Kakot, but the entire Bisan Kingdom and several other neighboring Kingdom also knew about it. Since the Kingdoms were very vast despite being weak, the courtesy of Visteerna, a planet that could put Universes to shame with its size, citizens of the Bisan Kingdom and neighboring Kingdoms couldn’t travel to the store if they couldn’t spend a large purse.

So any customer who exited the store became the center of attention for a few seconds for the other store owners and customers in the market. Staring at the customers, many hoped to be in their place. A rumor that the store has products that would make anyone strong had spread across the city, fuelled the fire for the popularity of the store.

When Oxen exited the store, he became a center of attention for every person present across the street.

“Honorable sir, please help me treat my son,” Oxen mumbled something and was going to teleport back to the meeting hall when he heard a sudden plea for help.

Oxen turned around, only to see a malnourished woman asking for help, with a newborn in her hands.

Oxen could see that newborn had died quite a long time ago since bones were evident.

The woman must have been carrying her son for quite a long time in the hope of treatment, but the son was already dead, and the mother couldn’t believe it, so she fell into a delusion that her son was alive and needed to be treated.

“Sir, please don’t harm her. She is my daughter. She had gotten mentally ill after her husband and son’s death,” Right at that time, another aged voice rang on the street as an old man requested Oxen not to hurt the malnourished woman, thinking that he would kill her for interrupting him.

Aakesh’s store had good as well as negative popularity. If the store was known for its products, the store owner was known for his killings. Similarly, the customers exiting the store were also feared by a minority, and the old man was part of that.

Oxen ignored the old man and looked at the malnourished woman and the dead newborn in her hands.

He slightly bent down, controlled his strength, and tapped down on the head of the woman.

The next moment, in front of everyone, the malnourished woman started to become younger as the energy returned to her face.

The next moment, the woman became young, and her mental strength also got healed.

The emotions returned to her face as she looked at her son.

“I can’t revive your son. You have an entire life left with you, so don’t give up just yet,” Oxen told the woman and then disappeared from the sight of the crowd looking at him with shocked expressions.

Reviving the newborn wasn’t a big deal for Oxen, but he didn’t since resurrecting something dead went against their principle. The Void beasts believed that the dead needed to have peace and were not to return through their hands.

The woman began crying while the old man knelt to thank Oxen for healing his only living descendant.

Aakesh also saw the scene of Oxen treating the lady with just a tap of his finger and then closed his eyes, starting another relaxation session.

***

When Oxen returned to the meeting hall, the other ten Void beasts were already waiting for him, seated on their chairs.

They had solemn faces as their next steps depend on what Oxen had learned about the store owner.

“What did you learn?” A question came right away.

“I think we need to give up on eliminating the store owner and focus on having friendly relations with him,” Oxen responded.

Oxen then began sharing everything he learned about the store owner and the mighty figure behind the store.

The more the other ten Void beasts learned, the more shocked they became.

“Did you ask him about the killing of the Aisad race?” Talia suddenly asked.

“Yes, they have become extinct in the Primal dimension,” Oxen responded in a neutral tone as if massacring an entire race wasn’t a big deal.

“Was he cautious against you when you had entered the store?” Another question came from one of the Void beasts.

“No! In fact, he was even more relaxed than yesterday. There was already a higher power present in the store…” Oxen then started sharing his experiences of getting his energy source sealed and then the effects of the training area.

“You fought against yourself and still lost so many battles,” One of the Void beasts mocked Oxen for losing battles against himself in the training area.

“Hmph, we’ll see your strength tomorrow,” Oxen scoffed and responded.

“Okay, let’s make a bet; If I defeat my opponent in less than ten battles, you will turn into my pet for a year, and if I won’t, I would do the same,” The Void beast responded, forgetting about the extinction of an entire race.

“Okay,” Oxen responded with a grin on his face. He couldn’t help but laugh out loud, seeing the overconfidence of his fellow Void beast.

The Void beast in question got a bad feeling in his heart, but he controlled himself and believed in himself as being stronger than Oxen.

“Let me give you a tip since we are all one. Never use your awakened mode,” Oxen further told the Void beast. While speaking, a hint of fear could be clearly seen on his face as he remembered what had happened to him when he had dared to use the awakened mode to get ahead in the battle.

The Void beasts then returned to their solemn moods as they began discussing about the store and the effect it could play on the power dynamics of the Primal dimension.

They were all confused by the goal of the store owner and the mighty figure behind the store for providing such high-level products.

“Should we ask them to find the details about the store and the store owner?” One Void beast suddenly asked. They in question were the eleven Void beasts from the Sacred dimension, and they had more knowledge than the Void beasts here.
