The First Store System

Chapter 612: Complete?

Anna felt that the respect she held for the store owner was eroding after hearing the question Aakesh had put. Yet she didn’t dare to voice her complaints out loud and answered, “I will buy one weapon.”

Aakesh expressionlessly nodded after hearing the girl. He was going to send her toward the weapons room, but before he could, Anna asked him, “Store owner, why don’t you help me pick up a sword for myself?”

Even though some of the respect Anna had for Aakesh had diminished, but still, Aakesh held enough significance in her heart to make her buy a sword at this conjecture. And since she was going to buy one at the suggestion of the store owner, Anna decided to ask the store owner to help her buy the best she could in her budget.

Helping customers buy a suitable weapon for themselves was also a part of his duty. It was voluntary, so he didn’t do it, but since Anna was the penultimate customer in his eyes, he decided to help her.

Aakesh expressionlessly nodded and stood up from the chair. Anna couldn’t help but yell in excitement after seeing the store owner accepting her request and will help her buy a sword. But she was rational enough to scream in her heart and not voice it out loud.

Aakesh didn’t wait for her and took the lead toward the weapons room. Anna, who was feeling excited, came back to reality and hurriedly followed him.

It wasn’t the first time for Anna to come to the weapons room, but as usual, she felt blown away seeing the luxury and the number of weapons there.

Aakesh and Anna were the only ones present in the weapons room as it had only been a few minutes since the store opened. If not for Anna getting late by some seconds, she would have also been inside Panagea.

Anna didn’t even know what to feel about the situation she found herself in after getting late. She felt fortunate that she was one of the few the mysterious store owner had looked on if he had done this all. At the same time, she also delta a pang in her heart as she would have to spend the last of her money on a sword, and she may not even be able to enter Panagea for some days to earn some Primal stones.

Aakesh straight away went to the pillar, signifying the sword since Anna used that weapon.

“Are you more familiar with one-handed swords or dual-handed swords?” Aakesh expressionlessly asked Anna. The sword in Anna’s space ring was a one-handed sword, but still, Aakesh asked it as he could see that she didn’t have enough money, so he wasn’t sure whether the weapon was her choice or it was necessary.

“One-handed sword,” Anna answered straight away. For as long as Anna could remember, she had been a one-handed sword user. For one, it was cheap, and the second was that her physique wasn’t good enough to battle for long if she used the dual-handed sword.

Aakesh expressionlessly nodded.

Aakesh now had two choices of what weapon to buy for Anna. He could go for growth weapons, which would help her get a hold of the sword from the start, but since Anna didn’t have enough money to buy even an average growth weapon, Aakesh forgot that option.

Anna was a Soul Formation level cultivator, so she could use Epic-grade weapons.

Aakesh also decided against it as she couldn’t buy the top-quality swords sold by the store. Aakesh instead went to the Rare-grade section and started searching there.

A few seconds later, Aakesh had ten swords in his hands.

“If you want to go as per my suggestions, you can buy any of them,” Aakesh then handed over all the ten swords to Anna and stated.

Anna wanted to say that her previous sword was an Epic-grade weapon, but her words got stuck in her throat as she sensed chilly intents from the swords handed to her by the store owner.

Even though they were only Rare-grade swords, it wouldn’t be a lie if Anna thought of them as superior to her current sword, which was one grade higher.

The reason Aakesh went for the Rare-grade swords instead of the Epic-grade was that many top-quality Rare-grade weapons could challenge Epic-grade weapons while being of lower cost since the material used in them was of low value.

Anna wanted to buy all of them since they were the store owner’s recommendation. But unfortunately for her, she didn’t have enough Primal stones in her space ring.

Anna then decided to check on the first of the ten swords as Aakesh expressionlessly stood there, looking at Anna checking her sword.

[Sword name: Unknown,

Grade: Rare,

Description: The sword is made up of a mixture of iron with blood steel, giving it an unprecedented sharpness,

Price: 152 Ordinary Primal stones.]

Anna nodded as she read the details of the sword. There was not much description for it, except for it has an unprecedented sharpness.

Anna then looked at the price. She couldn’t help but suck a cold breath of air as she only had 155 ordinary Primal stones to call her own. If she bought it, she would only be left with three stones.

Since it was only the first sword Anna had checked, she didn’t make her decision and went to check the details of the next.

Time flew by.

[Sword name: Unknown,

Grade: Rare,

Description: The sword is made up of a mixture of steel with the blood of the Dungottle, giving it a heaviness and sharpness,

Price: 155 Ordinary Primal stones.]

Anna read the details of the last of the ten swords.

Since Anna had checked all of the ten swords, she now had to make her decision.

After checking the details of all the ten swords, Anna liked all of them, but since she could buy only one of them, Anna felt into a confusion.

Except for the first sword she checked, all the other nine swords were 155 ordinary Primal stones.

In the end, the money issue won, and Anna decided to buy the first sword and be left with three ordinary Primal stones.

“Store owner, I want to buy this one,” Anna, with a slight tint of red on her cheeks due to embarrassment, told Aakesh.
