Chapter 5.

It has been about a week since I opened the store, after my meeting with the City Lord and Divine Family Patriarch, the number of store customers has slowly increased and reached a little over ten thousand customers daily.

This was not only due to the quality and wide variety of products that my shop had, but also the fact that my shop was one of the most interesting things in the city at the time.

Honestly, who could resist visiting a store that has an entire city inside its walls? This has allowed my store to sharply increase in size it has almost increased by one fifth in size, due to the customers buying things and increasing the strength of my store, but this wasn't the most important thing as that was the fact that a large number of new products were available for purchase, but most importantly it has finally opened some new centers inside the store.

The first and probably the one that I like the most is the restaurant where you can order pre-prepared meals. The other one that is quite popular is the Colosseum.

The Colosseum is an arena where you can fight various fights and the Stores Rules of no Fighting were removed and you could enjoy the fight at your own leisure.

But this was only about what new interesting things have happened to the store, the actual important news related to my own life is that I have finally used my points to buy something.

The first thing that I decided to buy was not the ability to understand the language spoken in the world, as I decided that it was too wasteful, and as such, I used it on the mutant ability that Cypher has.

Cypher is a mutant from the world of Marvel and has the ability of Omnilingualism and which allowed him to gain a supernatural talent for anything language related. At his full power he could read the Body Language of most people and thus fight at an extreme level, to speak languages that normal people would not be able to speak because they don't have the biological requirements and finally, he could perceive everything as language and thus read the information that was passively released from everything.

His ability in languages wasn't normal talent it was supernatural talent that allowed him to learn a language that he has no learning reference for. The knowledge about the correct meaning of the words just appears in his head.

Of course, I wasn't able to buy the full ability and was only able to buy one tenth of the ability, but that was enough for me to learn most of the languages of the world in a few days.

This ability would also grow in strength over time thanks to my Essence of Blank and also when I bought the ability, I didn't buy it as a mutant ability so I don't have the weakness that most mutants have.

So, over the last week I was entertaining myself by learning new languages that were available inside my library. In total I have learnt about 7 new languages.

I had bought Omnilingualism not just in one single go but over time, so my ability started of pretty weak and only granted me the peak talent of a normal human for languages, but after that with each new point added in the ability it broke in to the supernatural category.

In total I used 10 points for this ability, which is quite a lot considering that I could buy the full strength of legend rank with that amount of points and could buy a cultivation technique specialized for myself with only one point and the technique would allow me to reach Legend rank in a relatively short amount of time with no bottlenecks,

After this I decided to use my points to get more customers and to increase the power of my store at a faster speed so I could get my points faster.

Funny that you have to use point to get more points, but whatever.

As my shop has expanded and more people have come it has also welcomed some dumbasses and just people who are desperate.

What does this mean?

It means that some people have decided to use the alternative purchase options.

Some use their lifespan other use their stamina and some especially dumb people even used their own freedom and freewill to buy things.

When the people sold themselves to my store it means that I had gained them as slaves and that from now on they are the property of both the store and myself.

I usually am not interested in them as my store can run automatically and use them effectively for the Stores own benefit and as such, I don't have to control them on my own.

But since I decided that I will use my points to earn more points I will have to use them if I don't want to leave the store on my own.

What I will do is use one point which I generate in a little less then a full day to create a retail store. I can create a retail store for every one point that I use, but I can't just place the store in a place that I can't see I would have to leave the store and walk to the place that I want my new store to be before I could place it down.

But now that I have Slaves, I could just use them. I give them the preprepared retail store and all they have to do is go to the designated location and then release the store. The retail stores don't actually make new store they just create a new entrance for my store.

I have already used one of my points to make a retail store appear in the other major city of Glory City.

I have to cover the other six towns that exist inside Glory City. Glory City is more like a small kingdom instead of a city and is actually contains two Major Cities and Six Towns.

Just with the appearance of my new store the number of customers has almost doubled in just one day. It sounds quite illogical as the reputation of my store shouldn't have spread in that city, but maybe the city already new about my store but just couldn't visit it because its too far away.

I can already see the future where my store will completely control the entire city. It has in truth already started, the three major families don't just receive their income from nothing from what I have read in the books that are in the library most of Sacred Families income comes from Restaurants, the Divine Families income comes mostly from Farming and finally the Snow Wind family's income comes from the Military.

OF course, these are not their only income stream as they all have their hands in almost all other businesses, but these are the one that they focus on and specialize in.

But now with the availability of my store why would you buy some food products from the Divine family when you can just go to the All-Heaven Store and buy them for half the price and probably of better quality too.

The only ones that will not be too influenced will be the families that focus on the hunting of demon beasts as their demon cores can be used for currency in my store and thus, they will always be able to buy things form my store.

In the far of future this could mean that maybe in a hundred years or less the entire city will turn into a militaristic place where they hunt demon beast before going to my store and buying all that they need from there.

But who knows that is in the far of future and things might change, but from what I have detected my theory is probably a self-fulfilling prophesy as already some dissatisfied store owners have come and tried to make trouble inside my store for stealing all their customers.

Of course, those that tried were backlisted from my store and those that tried to make trouble outside my store were dealt with by either using my Slaves or by allowing some Demon Spiritualist or Fighters to buy pills for the price of protecting the interests of my store for a certain amount of time.

But what I adore the most is that I personally didn't even have to participate in the process, as the alien intelligence of my store planed and took care of all the problems that propped up.

Some other people might be scared that the Store can act without my input, but I know better. The Store is just another piece of myself like an arm or a leg and to betray me is to try and use my own hand to choke myself.
