Chapter 152: Events

The virtual projection showed Bislo as the winner after making two second-grade and three third-grade inferior pills. Aakesh then called him forward and handed him the winning card.

"Senior, can my son use this card?" Bislo asked Aakesh after getting the card. He could see the slumped shoulders of his son. He couldn't see his son this depressed, so he decided to ask Aakesh.

"No! Your name is already registered on the card," Aakesh expressionlessly responded.

Before Bislo could say anything, Aakesh waved his hands, and the next moment, all the participants who had participated in the event disappeared from the platform and appeared in front of their chairs.

After the group of participants left, Aakesh's eyes fell on the next group of participants.

After Alchemist, the most number of participants had joined the class, Blacksmith. Forty-two participants had joined the queue for this class.

Aakesh called the group in front. Excited expressions appeared on the faces of the participants participating in the class, Blacksmith, seeing their time to participate had finally arrived.

The group excitedly stepped forward while the other group of participants eagerly waited for their turn to come.

"To win the class, Blacksmith..." Aakesh started announcing the details of the test they had to face to win the class.

The test for the class Blacksmith wasn't too different from the test for the class, Alchemist.

In the event, the participants had to create the weapon easiest to make, a basic sword, while using iron as the material in the time limit of thirty minutes. 

For the test, like the test for Alchemist, there would be a paper lying on the table in the forging room that would contain the details of how to make the best sword from the iron. In addition to that, there would also be a single chant written on the paper.

The chant could or could not increase the quality of the created material based on the participant's understanding of the chant.

The participant who would make the best and strongest sword out of all the participants would win the class, Blacksmith as the reward.

Aakesh pointed at the first group of 15 out of the forty-two participants and told them to enter the portal.

Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes turned into hours, and just like that, 90 minutes passed.

Since there were only forty-two participants participating for the class Blacksmith, there were only three groups of entry into the portal. After the time was over for the last group, the system forced the group out of the forging room, and the next moment, they appeared on the platform.

Every participant had a sword in their hands. It was the basic sword they've created during the event for the test.

The next moment, the sword left the participant's hands and went to the virtual projection. As if the swords were sentient, they started establishing themself in sequence.

The sequence was based on the quality of the sword. The sword at the bottom belonged to the lowest quality of the lot, while the top sword signified the best quality of the lot.

After one sword of the lot reached the top, all the other participants created swords disappeared from the virtual projection. The next moment, a blue light engulfed the only remaining sword.

The participant who created the only remaining sword looked nervously at the scenes. If the blue light judged the quality of the sword to be adequate and worth the reward, he would win, and if it didn't fail to achieve the mark, the participant would lose despite winning against everybody.

The next moment, the blue light turned into gold, which brought an excited expression on the winning participant's face. If the light had turned red, that meant the quality of the sword wasn't worth winning, but since the blue light turned gold, he had won the event and the class Blacksmith.

The next moment, Aakesh called the participant and handed him the card. The participant's name was John. He wasn't from the Bisan Kingdom but the neighboring Blue Wyrm Kingdom.

The royal family, seeing someone from the other Kingdoms winning a reward wanted to do something, but Punta stopped them. He didn't want to offend the store owner after seeing even Elves not daring to be arrogant in front of him.

Time flew by, events after events passed. The sole participant who had joined the event for the class, Pharmacist, failed to pass the test, let alone win the reward.

The group of Moya participated for the class, Parasitic. Since the class didn't look impressive to others, the group of Moya was the only one that participated

The group consisted of five members, and their leader was the only one who passed the test, so she won the class as a default reward.

Those who knew about Moya knew the value of the class Parasitic to them. Even if they wanted to stop her, they couldn't risk offending Aakesh for the soul crystals.

The store of Aakesh was something that didn't seem to follow the rule of the world, so their preference would always be for the benefits they could get from the store over some treasures.

Elasha won the class Fortune Teller. Evelyn and George failed to win anything. The other members in the Elven group also failed to win any event.

There were several events that had tens of participants, but none of the participants even achieved the minimum requirement of passing the test.

After all the events related to different classes were over, the system informed Aakesh that the sun had set and the night had arrived, so he decided to end the day and close the store.

After he informed the customer, many customers had disappointed expressions as they still wanted to see more, but since there was one more day left and they needed to arrive early, they left the store.

While leaving the store, the system added a warning, "If you dare to harm any winner, you would need millions of lives to save yourself."

The system did this because many of the winners were low-level in reality, and the tower the royal family had won could bring a disaster for them.

After everyone left, Aakesh closed the door of the store and returned to his room.
