The First Store System

Chapter 695: A New Day and New Customers(2)

Glenn could sense that he was forgetting an event that was even more significant to him than his reincarnation, so he toiled hard to make his spirit grow at a sufficient rate.

Glenn tried to ask the system for an answer, but the system refused. The forgotten memory was due to the payment it got by taking away half of Glenn’s spirit. If it still told Glenn everything, then it would take a loss as a result.

Glenn didn’t ask the system after that and started doing everything to gain what he had lost.

When Glenn was thirteen years old, his family finally allowed him to go outside. Glenn wasn’t an ordinary citizen of the Bisan Kingdom, but he was a member of the royal family.

The current king Brinda was still unmarried, but all her brothers and sisters were. Since the family had gotten large, only those who had the same mother as Brinda and the talented ones got the title of the royal family member._{-ɴ(0ᴠᴇ)ʟ.}

Glenn was the grandson of Brinda’s only sibling that shared the same mother. So he had no ordinary identity in the Bisan Kingdom. At the same time, Glenn was also the most talented descendant of the dynasty; he never lacked resources.

There was one thing that was synonymous with the royal family in the Bisan Kingdom. It was their reverence for the store. So when Glenn finally became eligible to leave the royal palace, his grandmother, King Brinda, told him everything about the store.

Glenn didn’t remember anything of his past, so he felt the same reverence for the store when he heard the reverential tone of his parents and grandparents.

When it was his first entry into the store, Brinda took him with her in an attempt to familiarize him with the mysterious store owner.

Brinda had no plans to marry and have her own children since staying at the peak of power in the Bisan Kingdom for so long made her feel a desire for overpowered strength. She now wanted to become an Immortal, reach the peak of the Primal dimension, and then ascend to the Sacred dimension. That way, she could continuously grow more powerful.

Since Glenn was the most talented bunch in her family’s history, even if she were to consider her now missing grandfather’s paternal and maternal family, so an idea to groom Glenn as the next King rose in her heart. There was another reason that Glenn also had her mother’s blood flowing in his veins. He was her own nephew. She would rather groom her own nephew as the next king rather than groom her other sibling’s children.

paɴᴅᴀ-,cm When Glenn entered the store for the first time, he suddenly heard a mechanical alert from the usually silent system. Glenn couldn’t help but get shocked after knowing that the store owner was also a system host. Until that point, Glenn believed that a system was something that was unique to him.

Aakesh also got the alert of Glenn being a system holder, but he had no reaction to it. In the first phase of the store, he was selling systems to the customers that arrived in the store.

“The store now sells cultivation arts. You need to buy one for yourself,” Brinda sternly told Glenn after she learned of the addition of a new product in the store.

“But Aunt, I already have a great cultivation art,” Glenn complained.

“How can a cultivation art from the treasury of this Kingdom compare with the arts sold by the store,” Brinda reprimanded her nephew, ignoring his complaint.

Glenn couldn’t help but shake his head in disappointment after hearing his aunt.

The cultivation art he used came from the treasury of the Kingdom, but at the same time, it was heavily edited by the system, making it one of the best cultivation arts for him, if not the best. It was the reason behind him not wanting to change his cultivation art.

Glenn wanted to say something, but no words came out of his mouth when a glare came his way.

“I am not giving you a choice. It is an order,” Brinda’s tone suddenly turned majestic as she told Glenn.

Glenn couldn’t help but look down as he couldn’t look straight at his aunt. If he did, it would be defiling the dignity of the King. Brinda liked him, and it was no hidden fact that she was grooming him to become the next King of the Bisan kingdom, but at the same time, Brinda had a habit that someone defiling the dignity of her throne should be punished in the worst ways possible. Only the store owner was an exception to that since his aunt didn’t have enough influence or strength to harm the store owner. At the same time, the fear and respect for the store owner in her eyes were visible to everybody.

“I understand,” Glenn responded, looking at the ground.

“I only want the best for you. You have a month to select a cultivation art for you. After that, I will select one for you,” Brinda responded in a gentle tone.

Glenn found the gentleness in his aunt’s tone unbearing as she was giving an order.

“You can leave,” Without giving any time to Glenn to respond, Brinda added.

***

The scene of his conversation with Brinda played in his mind as Glenn entered the cultivation art room for the third straight day.

He had a month to select one suitable art for him since his aunt was aware that he would delay it and waste his time in the store while he would secretly cultivate using the same cultivation art.

Brinda was aware that the cultivation art would only work if the user were suitable, and since the cultivation art chosen by Glenn was working, she didn’t need to make him choose another one. Her blind trust in the store’s products made her force his nephew to choose a new cultivation art for him.

Glenn also knew the reason behind his aunt’s extreme reaction. But since she had been always nice to him, he didn’t want to go against his aunt. There was another reason as well for him accepting Brinda’s order. He wasn’t strong enough to refuse her.
