Chapter 376 - A New Customer!

Chapter 376: A New Customer!

Since customers were still unaware of the addition of the virtual portals, no new customer arrived for the next hour.

The store remained silent throughout that hour as there wasn't even the presence of a fly other than Aakesh.

"Kach!"

"Kach!"

"Kach!"

The silence permeating every corner of the store finally broke as the sound of footsteps echoed in the area.

Aakesh still didn't open his eyes as usual. But he didn't continue for long as he sensed the footsteps approaching him.

He opened his eyes and looked at the owner of the steps, only to find the person unfamiliar.

The person approaching Aakesh was in the disguise of a burly man, with a bow strapped to his jacket, but underneath the disguise, it was a girl who looked to be around eight years old. She had furry ears. There was also a fox-like tail coming out on her back, which seemed frozen at a casual glance.

There was no innocence present in her eyes like a child that looked like the girl should have, but instead, there was only cruelty and coldness present in those tiny eyes.

Despite her being a true appearance of a child, the girl was an early Demigod, and a dual element mage of ice and snow since these two elements in the store seemed to surround her, even though the girl was unaware of their presence.

Aakesh easily saw through the disguise of the girl. But since there were several customers in the store who took guises to hide their true appearance and races, he didn't call the girl out. He only expressionlessly looked at her, waiting for her to ask a question or state her purpose.

"Is this the store that has a training area in which any race could be chosen?" The girl asked in a hoarse manly voice, suitable for the disguise she had taken.

"Yes," Aakesh expressionlessly answered right away.

"I want that," The girl responded right away.

"The Gods & Demons level training for an Immortal-grade weapon."

It seemed she was already prepared, so even before Aakesh could tell her the price or the level of difficulties, she told him the difficulty level and took out the required amount of Primal stones from her pocket space.

"A trillion supreme Primal stone," Aakesh still told her the price as his duty as the store owner.

The next moment, Aakesh waved his hands, and the shining mountain of supreme Primal stones disappeared from the store.

[Host, the amount is complete!]

The next moment, an alert of the amount being right appeared in his head.

"Go ahead…," Aakesh told the girl and then explained the procedure of entering the training area.

"Okay!" The girl replied with the same hoarse manly voice. She then turned in the direction of the weapons room and proceeded toward it.

With the girl gone, another round of silence ensued in the store.

Aakesh closed his eyes and then began thinking about the strategies, depending on the situations arising in the fort.

Time flew by, and one hour had passed.

The girl, belonging to the beastman race, completed her hour of training, so the system forced her out.

The next moment, she appeared in the store. The system transferred her to an isolated space right away, and after her energy had calmed down, the system brought her back to the store. While all this happened, the girl stayed unaware of it.

She then began checking if she had gotten any increase in her level. She couldn't help but get disappointed, sensing that there wasn't any change in her energy level, but remembering the growth she had made in the training area, her disappointment disappeared.

The cruelty in her eyes increased even further after an increase in her strength.

Her eyes then fell on the slab located in the center of the pillar.

She was aware that it was the strength testing slab, so she took a step forward in its direction.

She then unstrapped the bow tied to the jacket her guise had worn. She then aimed it toward the slab.

She, using her left hand, stretched the bowstring. She only stopped when the bowstring touched her ear while a complete arrow had appeared on it.

A chill began permeating in the weapons room due to the presence of the arrow, but even before she could feel it, the system acted, and the room became normal.

"Bam!"

The sound of clashing rang in the room after the girl released the arrow, and it clashed with the slab.

The next moment, the slab lightened up, and soon a vertical empty bar appeared on it.

The bottom said peak Mana Sovereign(Level 10), while the top said Demigod, without using its sub-level since even in the best case, the strength could only touch the line, not pass it.

Soon, the blue liquid began moving upward from the bottom. At first, it was very quick, but as time passed, it started slowing down before finally coming to a stop.

The girl only nodded, seeing the result of her 33% strength. The blue liquid had stopped at just a little more than 91% on the vertical bar.

Time flew by.

When she utilized her entire strength without using any special arrows, the slab showed her a result of 53% on the bar from early to an intermediate Demigod.

It wasn't the end. After that, the girl began testing the strength of every special arrow she had in her arsenal.

After testing for some time, the time for her to test her strongest arrow finally arrived.

She then began chanting the mantra required to activate the arrow. It was a mantra that required her to chant for three seconds. If Aakesh were in her place, it would have taken him less than one-tenth of a second to completely chant the mantra; such was the skill level difference between them.

When her chanting was complete, a layer of ice emanated from her and attempted to cover the store, but before it could happen, the system acted, and everything returned to normal.

"Bam!"

She released the arrow, and in response, the slab lightened up for the umpteenth time.

Soon, her sight welcomed the result, and she couldn't help but smile, seeing it.

Her arrow's strength had reached just above 18% between intermediate and late Demigod.

The girl then left the store.. She had something to do after testing her strength.
