The First Store System-Chapter 912 (7) A Tough Battle!

Chapter 912: A Tough Battle!

Joator looked in surprise at the card in Aakesh's hands. He could feel that the material used in it was extraordinary. Joator wanted to sense the material, but the store owner didn't immediately hand him the card; instead, he was also looking at it as if it were the first time for him too.

Joator laughed at this thought since how could the store owner see his own product for the first time? He stopped thinking about it and waited for the store owner to hand the card over to him.

Joator's wait didn't last long, as Aakesh soon handed him the card.

A chilly sensation spread throughout Joator's body as he grabbed the card. Fortunately for him, it wasn't harmful; it only had an unpleasant feeling.

"Place your hand on the needle, and the card will automatically take a drop of your blood," Aakesh suddenly added expressionlessly.

Joator couldn't help but stop and look at Aakesh in surprise. Only a high-level treasure needed a drop of blood since once these treasures were linked to a user, they would never be owned by others.

"It is an artifact," Joator asked Aakesh as he looked at the needle. A prickling sensation attacked him when he tried to stare at the needle for more than a second.

"Ouch!" Joator couldn't help but groan and touch the area between his eyebrows as he felt that area getting pricked by a needle.

"Don't look at the needle! It's only there for your activation. Once the card gets linked to you, it will disappear." Aakesh cautioned Joator, ignoring his question.

Joator had already learned his lesson, so he hurriedly moved his eyes away from the needle and focused on the card.

The card seemed to be metallic, but when his hands stroked it, he felt like he was touching something soft.

"What material is used in its making?" Joator couldn't help but ask as he felt the card in his hands to be indestructible.

"You don't need to know that," Aakesh replied, taking Joator by surprise.

Up to this point, Aakesh would answer all of his questions. For the unanswered questions, Aakesh would ignore them, but it was the first for Aakesh to reply in such a way.

Still, Joator gave up on knowing the material since the store owner didn't seem interested in telling him. He looked at the fonts and could feel a grand aura leaking from them.

Joator then stopped searching every corner of the card since he failed to see anything that made the card special. His eyes then once again fell on the needle.

Joator didn't continuously stare at it, but he placed his index finger on it.

The next moment, Joator couldn't help but groan as an unbearable pain attacked him. The pain seemed to directly come from his soul, so his head had turned wet with sweat.

Fortunately for him, the pain seemed to disappear as quickly as it had arrived.

The next moment, an incredulous scene occurred. As Aakesh had said, the needle seemed to have disappeared right after taking the blood. The blood drop didn't disappear, but it slowly seeped into the see-through hole.

The blood didn't drop on the ground, but it seemed to flow to every corner of the card from that hole.

Not long after, a red hue completely surrounded the card, and when it disappeared, the blue card in Joator's hands had turned light red.

At the same time, a feeling that the card was his organ also appeared in Joator's heart. Not long after, all the information related to the card emerged like a memory in his head.

Joator understood the function of the card. It not only allowed him to store his stones, but it also allowed him to enter Panagea without taking permission from the store owner.

(A/N: For the pills and weapons: it would activate later in the story since there are only a few customers.)

Joator tried to test the storage function of the card as he stored half of the stones he had in the card.

Joator had done this randomly, not keeping the value of the stones in mind. But soon after, Joator stopped, and the exact value of the stones appeared in his mind in form of an electronic voice. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

"It has a spirit?" Joator couldn't help but ask Aakesh.

"You need to pay seven hundred ordinary Sacred stones," Aakesh announced after the issue of exchange was solved.

A smile appeared on Joator's face as he couldn't help but ask Aakesh about the discount for card users. The card strategy wasn't new, as many stores employed it. But in the other stores, there was some discount associated with the card, but this store seemed to not employ that tactic.

"The store only charges what the total value of the product is," Aakesh responded expressionlessly.

Joator got his answer, so he answered yes to the voice in his head.

The next moment, Joator got an alert about seven hundred ordinary stones disappearing from his wealth and what was left after the purchase on his card.

Aakesh also got an alert from the system at that time, informing him about the amount getting credited.

Since the sale was complete, Aakesh informed Joator about it.

Joator cheerfully grabbed the mace, and as he had expected, the feeling of discomfort that had been plaguing him earlier disappeared. Now that he held the mace, he felt that he had been using it for years, but not for the first time. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Joator had spent more than he had in the last few years today, but his spree hadn't come to an end. There was another product waiting for him in the store.

"Thank you, store owner!" Joator thanked Aakesh and then turned around and headed toward the cultivation arts room.

Looking at Joator's destination, Aakesh hoped that Joator would buy cultivation art. With one more sale, he would need to sell one less cultivation art for both the art's quest and the collective quest.

The Sacred Dimension was several times more vast than the Primal Dimension. In fact, it was so vast that, barring a few beings, no one could even travel that much even though they had an eternity of time.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A battle for life was happening on one of the countless planets in the Sacred Dimension.
