Chapter 568: A New Day for the Store!

As the newly created eleven suns spread their lights across all the eleven continents on Visteerna, Aakesh opened the door of his store.

Maria, Evelyn, George, and other members of the organization, Skylord, were waiting for their entry. They were waiting outside their building in confusion when the sun hadn’t risen, even after some time had passed, when they witnessed Aakesh suddenly appearing in the sky.

They couldn’t see what had happened as the scene was blurry, but not long after that, a sudden ball of splendor had appeared in the sky above the atmosphere, and not long after, the ray of lights forced the darkness to hide for the next fifteen hours until another night arrived.

Since not long after Aakesh appeared in the sky, the sun had risen, the group believed him to be the source.

***

After opening the store, Aakesh saw only a few customers waiting outside his door, which was different than the atmosphere around the store for the past week. Aakesh didn’t mind it as he was aware of the reason, and he was also confident that it wouldn’t take long for the long line of customers to arrive.

“Good morning, senior!” Maria greeted Aakesh after she and other members of the organization entered the store.

The other members also followed Maria and greeted Aakesh. Some were respectful, while some were casual.

“Senior, did you force the sun to rise?” Maria asked after seeing Aakesh nodding in response to her greetings.

“No!” Aakesh expressionlessly refused.

“Were you behind the sudden rising of the sun?” Evelyn chimed in and asked.

Aakesh looked straight as the long line of customers was already here and were swarming inside the store.

Aakesh noticed there were a lot many new customers today, ranging from Tao Manifestation to peak Immortal. Even Evelyn felt warned by the sudden arrival of this powerhouse.

Aakesh didn’t have to think about the sudden reason for an increase in customers as he noticed a familiar figure in the crowd.

A peak Immortal Sunlight Elf, who was there in Jamini’s territory after Aakesh had passed the world.

The Sunlight Elf nodded as he looked toward Aakesh.

After leaving the portal, the man searched for every information related to the blue-skinned man.

After searching for an hour, the man finally found someone who had seen the blue-skinned man.

The man was a supervisor of the travel portals and handled several Universes when he found his target from one of the guards.

The guard was the same person that had asked for the store card from Aakesh, hoping to try his luck someday after he had heard Aakesh’s introduction to ‘The First Store’.

After the Sunlight Elf found out about the store from the guard, the first thing he did was to go there with some of the guards and the family member.

The Sunlight Elf wanted to thank Aakesh for getting him out of that torturous world. Many may not know the reason behind Aakesh’s sudden disappearance, but he did and thought that Aakesh had gone to receive his reward for clearing the world, just like every challenge in the world gave.

The number of people was his way of thanks to Aakesh since he was a store owner. The Sunlight Elf decided to empty Aakesh’s store since he earned good money from his job. Even some affluential families wouldn’t be able to bring out the amount of money he could.

Aakesh didn’t care for the Elf’s nodding and ignored Evelyn’s question since there were too many new customers today.

Evelyn could only look with an expression of helplessness as Aakesh told her to move away and enjoy the product, for she comes here daily.

***

While Aakesh was busy in his store, a chaotic scene was occurring across the majority of the organization in the Primal dimension.

The reason for upheaval was the sudden arrival of a portal and then suddenly getting thrown out. Another reason was that the casualty rate was unprecedented.

Several million people, with their strengths varying from Void Forging to peak Immortal with the pseudo-divine physique, had entered the portal to check what was beyond it. But now, not even a few thousand people have come out, and each of them had only a single response that it wasn’t their willingness that they came out, but suddenly a portal appeared and sucked them in.

“Why did you come back but not my son?” A man, who looked to be in his teen years, cried out in anger as a girl looking even older than the man knelt in front of him. He was seated on a throne alternating automatically in random colors.

Constant tears streamed out of the girl’s eyes as she recounted how she and her husband had gotten separated after their entry into the portal and her subsequent challenging experiences.

Even though the girl was kneeling, she was no weak person. She had a strength of a peak Immortal and was on the verge of achieving the pseudo-divine physique.

Sigh!

“Come here,” The man heaved a sigh, making him several years older after that moment. He then called the girl, the last family member.

These scenes weren’t uncommon across the dimension, as many families died out after their most talented and mightiest people never returned from the portal.

***

Elasha, her son, and her daughter-in-law heaved a sigh of relief as they saw Lenna appearing above their family house.

After relief came jubilation as the family sensed the increase in her cultivation; when Lenna had left, she was only a peak Tao Palace, but now that she had returned, her cultivation was early Heavenly Monarch, and it was stable.

Lenna had an expressionless face as she descended to the ground. Fortunately for her, her entry point in the Primal dimension wasn’t very far, so after only a few seconds, she successfully returned to her house.

After facing countless life-threatening challenges over the past, her maturity had grown a lot.

Even though Lenna faced several deaths in Panagea, except for the first one, there was a subconscious belief that she would revive in no time, which wasn’t the case in the world inside the portal. So Lenna learned many things from the world psychologically and physically.

She also made a life-and-death friend in Reginald, the Emperor of the Xandar Empire.
