Chapter 1141: Feeling Bored!
Visca returned to the waiting corner after he succeeded in taming the Bearded Butterfly by defeating it. His wait didn't last long, as only a few minutes after he went, time for many of the customers in Panagea was over, and the system forced them out one by one.
Fortunately for Visca, he was one of the last customers on the list of entries, so he made the cut.
Time flew by, and hours passed in a flash.
It had been around twelve hours since the store opened for the day. There had been an inflow of more than a hundred thousand people of different races during that time.
Aakesh was relaxing in his chair; Lily was relaxing on his head, her mood didn't seem good due to the early morning events. There were two chairs near Aakesh, and Katrina and Autumn were sitting there.
Except for their Panagea time, they would spend their day sitting inside the store, either sleeping or talking with Aakesh.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Aakesh was relaxing in his chair when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching the store. Aakesh opened his eyes and turned in that direction.
Katrina was getting bored, so when Aakesh raised his head up, she also turned toward the door. Unfortunately for her, Aakesh didn't accept her request to remove the sense-blocking array's restriction on her. So she would follow Aakesh's movement.

Harley entered the store, which she had heard a lot about from one of her subordinates. She belonged to the race of Gregar.
Gregar was a race of only females. It was a mid-tier race, but its influence was no less than a top race due to its members.
The race was all female, so its members mated with different races. When any Gregar gave birth to a female, they were all Gregar, with no hint of the father's bloodline. When they gave birth to a boy, it contained all of his father's bloodline with no hint of Gegar in it.
Gegar's ruler was only a peak Sacred King, but the race had the support of several Sacred Creators due to their relationship with a Gregar member. One of the Sacred Creators was even born to a Gregar mother, increasing their stability further.
Harley was a Gregar, but unlike other Gregars, she chose against marrying someone of a powerful race, despite being one of the most beautiful Gregars in the current generation.
To stay independent of that, Harley used the help of her father, who was a Sacred Creator. Even though her blood had nothing to do with the father, the man still treated Harley as his daughter.
Harley was unable to gain any assets since her Sacred Creator father came from a top race that had been in existence for countless years. Despite his being a Sacred Creator, there were some rules he couldn't break. One of the rules was that any ancestral property could only be given to a blood heir. Due to the strange characteristics of Gregar's bloodline, Harley lost that opportunity.
Still, her father helped her a lot by using his personal assets. The largest thing her father did for her was establish an organization for her in a resource-filled universe.
Even though the man didn't publicly proclaim Harley as his daughter, still having a Sacred Creator as her father created a secure ground for her to expand. No one wanted to risk testing whether the father adored his daughter.
One of the top subordinates in her organization was a regular customer of the store, so Harley learned about the store from her.
It wasn't that she only learned it recently. Her subordinate, Clara, had been a regular at the store for the past two years, and Harley learned about it on the first day she came to the store.
It was just that Clara was famous for her exaggerated statements, so Harley didn't believe Clara. Like her, every member of the organization was from the Gregar race, so there was a tight bond between everyone. Neither Clara treated Harley as her boss, nor did Harley treat Clara as her subordinate.
She only believed Clara earlier in the day when Clara battled in the century event organized by the organization every hundred years, showing the absolute growth she had made over the past two years.
Harley had no choice but to believe it since she saw it with her own eyes. Even Harley didn't dare think of what would happen if there was a battle between her and Clara.

Harley entered the store and her eyes fell on the blue-skinned man she had heard from Clara. Her eyes rose up in surprise as she found Clara to be underestimating Aakesh when she talked about how great his appearance was.
A smile spread across her face, but soon it froze when she saw the woman not far from the store owner, looking at her with a sly grin on her face.
Harley didn't focus on the grin but on the face. Harley had always been confident about her appearance, and it also played a large role in her choosing to act alone rather than use her beauty to get a powerful cultivator to fall in love with her. But as she saw Katrina, she couldn't help but feel ashamed about thinking of herself as beautiful in the first place.
She soon calmed down, and the smile reappeared as she stepped forward and approached the store owner.
"Hello, store owner!" She greeted Aakesh in her gentle, soothing voice.
"Hello, my lady!" Harley then turned toward Katrina and greeted her as well.
***
"Aakesh, tell me about the store products," Harley requested, her referring way to Aakesh changing after learning his name.
Aakesh didn't care about the way someone referred to him unless it was extremely demeaning to him, Lily or the store, so he didn't care about how Harley referred to him and began, "The store currently sells five products, and they are pills, weapons…"
He soon introduced all five products and their basic details. Harley was already aware of the details since she learned them from Carla before coming here, but it felt good to hear them directly from Aakesh.
