The First Store System

Chapter 201: A Murder

Time flew by, and several hours passed.

Currently, only the last group of customers in Panagea was left, while there were no more than ten customers inside the store, and they were all in the weapons room.

"Do you like this one?" Rupert asked his girlfriend while swinging the Mythical level sword in his hands.

The Mythical grade weapons belonged to a Galaxy and wouldn't work outside it, but the weapons the store sold didn't have such limitations. The weapon sold here would be considered Mythical in every Galaxy and world, so its power remained the same throughout the Primal dimension.

"Yes, I love it," Shina replied while her eyes shined, seeing the sword in her boyfriend's hands.

"Okay, I'll give it to you, my love," Rupert responded with a laugh. Shina, in response, hugged Rupert.

Rupert's eyes started to search around Shina's body with a lewd expression on his face, which caused Shina to act seductive.

The other customers who saw this scene couldn't help but feel envy. They could see the girl was using her beauty while the guy was doing it for the beauty.

The sword Rupert was buying to impress the girl caught the attention of one of the store's customers.

Rupert was only a Void Forging cultivator and lived in the Chivele Kingdom, but since his father was a wealthy merchant, he was able to travel here for the event after the announcement.

On the last day event, his chair was placed next to Shina's chair, which led to their meeting.

Shina was from the Blue Wyrm Kingdom(the neighbor of the Bisan Kingdom) and was an early Void Condensation expert.

She had a high level when it came to the area around her, but when she arrived in the store, she saw hundreds of thousands of undefeatable beings, and one such person was Rupert.

Seeing the look Rupert gave her when he sat next to her, she decided to play with him.

She was currently 689 years old, and during these years, she already had multiple sexual relationships, so having a sexual fling with Rupert didn't matter much to her. While Rupert may have been hundreds of years younger than her, he still had a higher cultivation level than her.

After the event ended, they booked a hotel room for themselves and enjoyed the night. He was about to leave today, but before he left, he decided to gift Shina something as a thank you for making the night enjoyable.

Shina's purpose behind having a sexual fling was only this, so she had no issues with it.

Rupert may be younger than Shina, but how can he not know what Shina's purpose was behind sleeping with him after living for centuries. He didn't feel disgusted by it, but instead, he thought of it as a simple transaction.

He wouldn't have done this if Shina hadn't been so attractive, but since she was so beautiful, he decided to go along with it. For a person like him, top Primal stones didn't even matter.

The sword he was going to give Shina cost 99,999 top Primal stones. He had already bought a superior card from the store, so he directly paid through it.

After he got the alert that he had bought the sword, he gave it to Shina.

Without even waiting for a second, Shina grabbed it. She then whispered something in Rupert's ears, which made his breathing uneven.

He grabbed Shina's hands and rushed out of the store right away. Several of the customers had jealous expressions since using her beauty, Shina had gotten a Mythical grade sword from Rupert.

Right after Shina and Rupert hurried out of the store, a man silently followed them.

Right after the man left, Aakesh got a sudden alert from the system about the ill intentions of the man.

"Let it be, we aren't the protectors of the customers," Aakesh told the system to ignore it.

The product he sold in the store would always have someone who wanted to steal it. If someone purchases it, then they also must be able to cope with the problems that may come with it.

The store would only protect inside the store. The events outside the store do not affect Aakaesh unless they create an impact on his store.

Across the street from the store, Rupert and Shina were fighting in a hotel room.

While Shina was on top, suddenly Rupert's head burst, and the blood and brain matter flew all over the bed.

Before Shina could understand the sudden situation, a sudden voice rang in the room, "Give me the sword!"

Shina was still on top of headless Rupert, so she tried to move, but she suddenly found herself bound to him. No matter what she tried, she couldn't budge.

"Don't try to move! Just do what I say. Otherwise, hehe..."

The next moment, a floating skull shrouded in grey fog appeared in front of her. At the end of the sentence, Shina's face had turned pale from horror as the skull glanced at her naked body with a peal of eerie laughter.

Shina hadn't lived for so long in vain, so she didn't try to move or talk of Rupert's background to scare the man. Instead, she looked at the skull and said, "I'll only give you the sword if you promise to let me go."

Instead of responding, an eerie smile appeared on the skull, which sent bad signals in her heart.

The next moment, a painful scream escaped her mouth. It disturbed everyone in the hotel.

Shina thought it might benefit her if more people came here, but the next moment, her eyes and mouth flew wide open.

"No one will come to save you. They're all dead," The skull told Shina with a burst of eerie laughter.

"I'll give you three seconds. If I've to wait for more than that, I will refine your soul for 100 years," The skull threatened.

"I would never give you the sword. If I can't live, then you're never going to have it," Gritting her teeth, Shina said to the skull.

"One!" The skull ignored her warning and instead began counting.

"You'll never have it..." She screamed, but her screaming came to a halt after seeing the skull counting to two.

She tried to commit suicide right away as, after her death, the space ring would become unusable, and no one would be able to get his sword.

She tried to reverse the flow of her Qi that would rupture every vein in her body, but nothing happened.

She looked at the skull, grinning at her. She knew she couldn't even commit suicide without the permission of the killer.

"Th-"

The skull counting came to a sudden halt as Shina gave up and took out the sword from her space ring.

She didn't want her soul to get tortured even after death, so she gave up.

"Good girl," The skull responded with an eerie laugh. The next moment, Shina shivered as she felt a finger move around her body and move down.

Time flew by. An hour later, the owner of the hotel arrived and found every single person inside the hotel had died.

He called the guards right away. During the search, the guards discovered a headless naked woman in a compromising position with a headless man.

Everything that had happened had nothing to do with Aakesh. Instead, it was the time to close the store for the day since the night had arrived.

"It's time to check the bonus rewards," Aakesh murmured after he closed the door.

A/N: It's just one of the side stories. It wouldn't have a major influence on the main story. While reading the previous chapters, I found that there isn't even a single occurrence of someone trying to steal treasure from a customer, so I decided to write it in this. If you guys don't like it, then please comment.. I would stop writing such side stories in the future.
