The First Store System

Chapter 1649: Aakesh, Lily, and Khaval!

Chapter 1649: Aakesh, Lily, and Khaval!

[Host, the system is preparing for travel through the dimension!]

The system’s mechanical voice rang in the store. Aakesh and the other two nodded since ascending with the store was different from ascending on their own.

Now that the three had time to wait, Aakesh focused on his two children.

Lily and Khaval turned around and ran right away, not giving Aakesh any time to speak.

Aakesh grinned when he saw the action of the two. The next moment, he stepped forward and appeared right before Lily.

Lily wanted to change her direction, but Aakesh reached her and grabbed her by the scruff of her neck. Khaval used that time to widen the gap between the two sides, but Aakesh simply tried to pull the empty air.

The next moment, an invisible force appeared and pushed Khaval backward. Khaval was thrown backward, only to fall into Aakesh’s other hand.

Aakesh grinned as he pinched his head. He didn’t say a word, but the two seemed to have understood the meaning behind his grin.

The two could only sigh helplessly as they readied themselves to face him in a battle.

"You can only fight us at the same strength and agility values."

Lily stated before the battle began. She only wanted to see people getting beaten, not get beaten herself.

Aakesh simply waved his hands, and the next moment, his status screen appeared. After that, his strength and agility attribute values started to decrease, only stopping at 999 Primordial units.

Aakesh then cracked his fingers while the status screen disappeared.

Lily and Khaval glanced at each other, and in that moment, numerous plans appeared in their minds. They made their moves at the same time.

One charged from the right, while one from the top. One was aiming for his heart, while one aimed for his head.

Aakesh stopped being casual and started taking the battle seriously. It was only a physical fight with the same level of strength and agility, without any skills or energy, so the match’s victory would depend on the side that could utilise more of their strength.

The store was indestructible, so the three could fight to their heart’s content.

Aakesh moved backward, avoiding the assault from Lily and Khaval. They could only hit empty air, but they flexibly changed their body movements and followed him.

Aakesh suddenly bent down and hit to his right with his elbow.

Boom!

The next moment, Khaval was struck in the face and was thrown backward, hitting the store with a loud sound.

As for Lily, he punched her, predicting her movements, making sure she met the same fate as her brother.

Unlike Khaval, Lily used her small body well to stop herself from falling and then used that as a force to jump forward.

Crash!

The next moment, her claws were right at Aakesh’s face and hit him, knocking him backward. Before Aakesh could stand up, Khaval appeared right above him. His body weighed a lot, and he used that force to knock him further back.

Aakesh felt as if he could see stars, but he immediately recovered, and as Khaval was trying to make another move, he grabbed him by his tail and slammed him on the floor, breaking some of his bones.

He then used his legs as a spring to slide right next to Lily and head-slammed her.

Khaval was right above him and slapped him backward after the former used his tail as a slap.

Lily appeared behind Aakesh and struck him with both her paws, not hiding her sharp nails. They easily pierced through his skin, but Aakesh ignored it and used Lily’s force to help him reach Khaval.

Khaval was creating momentum for a powerful charge when Aakesh’s hand suddenly appeared before his face and grabbed him by his head.

Khaval tried to force his way out, but instead of getting out of his grip, it provided the force Aakesh could use to grab Lily.

Crack!

Aakesh slammed the two heads together, forcing out a loud cracking sound. Lily and Khaval didn’t let Aakesh have any easy, as the former’s sharp claws struck his chin, ripping out a chunk of his flesh, while Khaval used one of his fins as a blade and cut through parts of his left face.

[Ding.]

[Host, everything is ready for the store to start in the Primordial dimension. The only thing the store doesn’t have is the store owner.]

[After five minutes, you’ll be transferred to the store in the Sacred dimension.]

The system’s mechanical voice rang inside the store, stopping the fight between the three. The emotion in the voice hadn’t disappeared like the last time, but it was still there.

At that time, all three had blood seeping from parts of their bodies.

Aakesh released the two as their injuries recovered instantly.

"Hey, system, is the emotion in your tone temporary like previous instances, or is it permanent from now on?"

Aakesh asked to clear up his confusion.

[Host, if you want to hear emotionless alerts, you can request them.]

"Forget it. It’s better to hear some emotion in your voice. You no longer seem just a tool."

"As you command, Host!"

Aakesh could sense the happy tone in the system’s mechanical voice. He only smiled in response to that and turned toward Lily and Khaval.

"Both of you need to work hard!"

Even though Aakesh didn’t have easy for him in the battle but he was still fighting casually whereas Lily and Khaval were somewhat serious. Only if they were fighting to kill would their strength be stronger than what they showed in the match.

The two didn’t say anything but simply nodded. They also noticed the wide difference between the two sides. Even with the same attribute values, they weren’t confident of winning against Aakesh in a two-versus-one battle, even if they fought like they were going for the kill.

As the three talked, fifteen minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

[Host, are you ready for the ascension?]
