The First Store System

Chapter 34

The silence in the store broke by the sudden angry growl of Maria. Aakesh slightly turned his head and saw a standing Maria glaring at Ben while her entire body was shaking. She had a mix of intense expressions on her face.

”What are you glaring at?” Ben responded with a casual grin at Mariaʼs growl.

Maria wanted nothing but to kill Ben as cruelly as possible for what he did to her, but he forcefully controlled herself from not acting recklessly. Two peak Soul Formation guards protected him; she wouldnʼt even be able to touch him, let alone harm him.

She then turned her head to look at Aakesh to see his response but was disappointed when she didnʼt see any expression on his face. He had no interest in the story of Maria and Ben, so he ignored their chatter.

”Do you want to buy anything or not?” Aakesh asked.

”Wanna have another night?” Ben ignored Aakesh as he grinningly asked Maria.

Her eyes turned cold after hearing Benʼs bullshit. She bit her lip to control herself from not acting recklessly, which resulted in bleeding. Ben laughed in response, seeing Mariaʼs actions.

”Why are you angry, donʼt tell me you didnʼt enjoy our night of love?” He added with his grin getting wider.

Maria clenched her hands into a fist while a chunk of meat came out as the force at which she bit her lip increased. It took every ounce of her power to control herself from not attacking Ben.

”Oh, darling! How could you do this? You already had one scar, and now this,” Ben added more while he laughed out loud. Even Pento wanted to stop him as he knew what Ben was doing was crossing the limit, seeing the girl trying to control herself, that badly that chunk of meat came out of her lip, making her beautiful face weird.

Hearing of the scar broke all the control Maria had, she lunged at him with an angry scream. Benʼs guards seeing this stepped forward and stood between Maria and Ben. The first guard caught both her hands, while the second caught both her legs.

”Let me go! I want to kill that bastard,” She angrily screamed at the guards.

”Enough! Leave her!” Aakesh suddenly said. A sudden pressure arrived on the guards that made Maria so heavy that they had to release her. Maria fell to the ground after that. She tried to rush at Ben again after standing up but couldnʼt move her feet away as pressure arrived on her.

”Get back here! No one is allowed to fight here,” Aakesh then ordered her.

Like a remote-controlled robot, Maria turned around and returned to the same position she stood on before lunging at Ben. She tried to stop her footsteps, but her feet wouldnʼt budge, and continued moving, only to stop when she reached the point.

Pento shuddered, seeing the scene. He himself was a peak Nascent Soul expert. He didnʼt carry guards around the Kingdom to protect him, but he brought them with him to do his bidding. He could not see what Aakesh did, which meant Aakesh was way stronger than him in reality. He thanked the heavens for not acting recklessly after arriving in the store. He slightly turned his head and looked pitifully at Ben, whose face was red due to embarrassment and anger.

Because Ben was a good friend, he decided to stop him from talking any more nonsense. He extended his hand to pat his shoulder, but he immediately retracted it.

”How dare you order my guards?” Ben angrily yelled. He chose to ignore that his guards had to release Maria despite Aakesh doing anything and directly involve himself against Aakesh. His guards wanted to stop him, but he had already spoken.

Lily vanished from Aakesh head, and the next moment it appeared in front of Ben. she was only a single second away from ripping Benʼs body into five pieces using her claws when Aakesh angrily called her back.

”Youʼre not to act before I tell you to,” He then instructed Lily in a voice only she could hear. Lily didnʼt speak anything in response.

”Since you donʼt want to buy anything, you can leave,” Aakesh ignored Benʼs outburst and told the group to leave.

”Yes, Yes, weʼll leave,” Pento spoke with a relieved sigh. He wanted nothing more than to leave after knowing that the store owner was more powerful than him.

”Who are you to order us to leave? Weʼll leave whenever we want to leave,” Ben scoffed as he got even angrier after Aakesh ignored him. Pentoʼs face palmed himself after hearing Ben. If he werenʼt his friend, he wouldʼve gone up to him and beat the shit out of him for acting like a dolt.

”According to rule no. 3, youʼre prohibited from further entry into the store,” Aakesh suddenly spoke while pointing at the board staying near the counter. ”If you donʼt take him, you all will also be blacklisted,” He then added while pointing at the five members of the group.

After hearing this, Pento, without speaking anything, grabbed Benʼs collar and tried to leave the store. He didnʼt want to get prohibited from entering the store. After knowing the power of the store owner, he wanted a good relationship with him. If he never gets to enter the store, how will he ever make good relations with him? For him to become a king, he needed strong connections.

”Wait! Iʼll leave on my own,” At first, Ben was shocked by his best friend Pentoʼs actions, but when he saw the seriousness in his face, he didnʼt dare to complain. He agreed to leave the store.

Pento released the collar after hearing Ben. Ben adjusted his collar and angrily looked at Aakesh. He didnʼt speak anything and slightly turned his head, and stared at Maria.

Mariaʼs earlier appearance and the night he spent with her emerged in his mind.. An expression of lust appeared on his face as he grinningly said, ”Sheʼll come with me.”
