The First Store System

"I am rich!" Tira couldn't help but yell in joy.

Mental defense related weapons were always in high demand, so Tira didn't have to fear the market being saturated by only these many illusion beads.

All the excitement suddenly disappeared when Tira remembered the excessive exchange rate for taking items out of Panagea and considering that she would be making a loss rather than a profit.

'Panagea would be more than enough!'

Tira thought in her heart and decided to be happy with that. The profit she could gain from Panagea wouldn't be less useful, and since she was already from an affluent background and didn't lack resources for her cultivation, she wasn't in dire need of selling these resources.

She then returned her focus to the cave before her. Looking at the vast cave from the inside, it appeared that the number of beads easily reached several hundred thousand at a glance.

It wasn't a fixed resource, or its value would have been dropped several times. The cave would keep giving birth to illusion beads for her to sell.

She needed to be accurate with the inventory to inform the organization, so she began to count the exact number of illusion beads.

A few minutes later, the counting was successful. The total number of beads that could be immediately taken out was 238,794. There were more than four hundred thousand beads that would take some time before being ready to be taken out.

At the same time, Tira also found out the resource output of the cave. When she had reached the cave's end, she found a blue screen waiting there for her.

According to that screen, the cave would produce 80,000 beads a year, and the maximum the cave could store at once was 800,000. A bead would take 5 years to be completely ready, so Tira would need to make her schedule depending on that.

Once she had confirmed things about the cave, she walked out. The next moment, a strange shaped device appeared in her hand.

She immediately channeled her energy and immediately a projection emerged from the device. The projection contained several faces. Some were dim while some were lighting up.

One of the figures in the projection belonged to Maria. Tira tapped on it, and the next moment, it began to flicker.

A few seconds later, the flickering stopped, and the projection materialized.

"What did you find?" Maria asked as she looked around.

The strange device was a communication device exclusive to Panagea. Maria had splurged a lot of money to purchase a mother-and-daughter device to link it to her organization.

Anyone who became a member of her organization would automatically get a device as soon as they appeared in Panagea. Since Tira's authority in the organization was very high, she could communicate with every member.

Tira then informed Maria about the illusion beads and the resource output of the cave.

Maria's eyes lit up when she heard the name, and she could immediately think of many ventures related to the item.

"Let's communicate in person at night." Maria was busy on her side, and things needed to be personally discussed, so she said bye to Tira and cut the call.

Tira returned her focus to her territory. She had immediately come to check the cave, so there were many things left unchecked in the territory.

There wasn't only the Emperor-level illusion bead in the territory. It was just the highest level resource. It wasn't sure that there were king level resources, but there were lower-level resources for certain.

Tira returned to the center, where her simple villa was standing. She was the only living being in the range of 10,000 square miles.

In the center of the villa, there was a surveillance room. It was a bonus for the territory owner.

Tira could use that to scan every inch of her territory and she would get a map detailing every resource and life in that range. Unfortunately, it was only one time use.

Tira didn't think too much about it and immediately activated it. The next moment, a blue map appeared before her, containing different color marks in different locations.

The most glowing color belonged to the cave she had just checked. The other colors weren't very bright, but there were many of them.

There weren't only marks but also the description of the resource.

The majority of the marked resources were different mineral mines like gold, silver, black iron, red gold, etc. They weren't of very high value but still would bring some profit to Tira, so she was happy about it.

The only thing that disappointed Tira was that there were no soul stone mines in her territory. If there were even a micro mine, the value of the territory would have grown severalfold.

Tira didn't feel disappointed about it for long as she found several acres of energy-rich fields where she could grow rare plants, and that could become another source of revenue for her and the territory.

All in all, Tira found that her efforts in the contest were worthwhile, and she had made an immense profit.

Tira was about to leave and get ready to work on the field when she suddenly stopped. The next moment, her face turned pale and her body began to tremble in fear.

"Tsk, why are you afraid? If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't even know how or when you died."

A voice filled with playfulness rang in Tira's ears. The voice seemed to have a calming effect, and she immediately calmed down.

She then slowly turned around and saw a being standing there looking at her with playful eyes.

The being was of the same height as her but was very thin. It seemed even a slow wave of wind would take the being away. Tira didn't think so since she could clearly feel her inferiority in front of the being.

It was as if the two belonged to different life levels. Even her father had never given her such a feeling.

"I heard that a new territory owner had appeared, so I came to see who was the lucky one." The man responded, not caring about Tira's frightening expression.

Your next read is at empire

"Master, I just arrived, so things aren't worthy to welcome you, but still give this lowly one some opportunity to tend to you." Tira respectfully said.

She wanted the man to leave immediately, and even she wanted to exit Panagea, but she knew how to act, so she focused on the man.

"No need."

The man said and disappeared, but not long after, another sentence rang in Tira's ears.

"If you have something worthwhile, you can trade with the Hulingat Kingdom."

Tira didn't know whether the man had truly left or not, so she stood there frozen for some time.

When there was no new movement for several seconds, she finally calmed down and immediately melted to the ground with a pale face.

She didn't dare waste even a moment and immediately contacted Maria.

Maria had the same reaction when she heard about the man, but when she heard about the Kingdom, she almost stumbled.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She had heard about the Hulingat Kingdom, and it was one of the top rate Kingdoms on the planet, with the King being a Level 900 being.

"You are both lucky and unlucky to get a territory near the Hulingat Kingdom's territory."

Maria couldn't help but complain. Since the Kingdom was a powerful one, the things Tira could come in contact with were things that even Maria didn't dare imagine.

At the same time, Tira would always be living in the shadow of the kingdom. There were numerous beings above Level 500 in the Kingdom, let alone those below that level.

Fortunately for Tira, her territory didn't have a resource that could attract any of those powerful beings, so she would be safe.

What Tira didn't know was that while she was panicking with Maria, there was a ruckus in the royal palace of the Hulingat Kingdom.

"Have you gone mad?" The king cursed in annoyance.

If Tira were here, she would recognize the man kneeling before the king. Who could it be if not the man who just caused Tira and Maria to panic?

"Grandfather, I was just checking who was the owner of the territory," Flick responded with a helpless expression.

Flick had been grounded for three thousand years due to his antics, but no one dared to stop him, the King's favorite grandson, if he wanted to leave the territory.
