Edith looked at the condition section of his data and immediately became concerned with the spiritual dispersion disease. This disease dispersed any and all spiritual energy that enters his body. This would prevent him from cultivating, a very respected practice in his world. He immediately turned to Luna and asked with urgency,

"How can I get rid of this!?"

"Oh, that. Uhm, you would need to shed your mortal self and start on the path of cultivation, however, that becomes impossible with such a disease. The only option I can think of would be to get a reward from the system, of course, such a reward would have to be extraordinary."

"How would I even get a reward from the system?"

"You can gain such rewards from quests issued from the system. However, with your low authority, they would also have consequences in the event of incompletion."

"I see, when would I even get a quest?"

"T-that I don't know. However, I would first open your starter pack first."

"Mkay."

Edith quickly opened his starter pack, and the golden panel appeared, showing him what he had received.

Edith looked at the various items he had received with both wonder and intrigue. The first thing he did was look at Luna and ask for her advice.

"Uhm, Luna, what do I do with these?"

"Hmm, I would first decide what type of theme you want your store to have. Afterward, I would design the store you will be selling your items in."

Edith had no idea what a "store" looked like. The closest thing he had seen was various stalls that covered the streets selling their wares. Although he might have the mentality of a child, he still knew better than to trust whatever had fallen into his hands. However, he also knew appearances matter more than some would believe, so reluctantly he looked over at Luna and asked if she could design the store. At first, she was taken aback; however, she still performed the task she had been asked to complete to the best of her ability.

While she was working, she began to ask various questions to help with the designing process, "How would you like the building to be presented? A lord's manor, or a grand royal palace, or maybe a cozy cabin, simply think about it, and I will make sure to implement it into my design. Moreover, what type of atmosphere would you like? An expensive atmosphere that caters to the rich? Or maybe a more reserved catering to the less well-off? I see, alright, hmm, that should be there and we can put that there. Alright, before we finish please look over it and make any changes you wish to make."

In front of Edith stood a large tree that seemed trunk, a very unique design. The tree trunk was outlined with various windows and had a single carving of a door that led inside. The carving was left open, with a sign above it that read Dawn Shop. On the inside, various furniture from cushions, tables, and glass counters filled the room. The tree was deprived of a single room where a kitchen had been placed.

Edith looked at the building in amazement, however he felt a single piece was missing from such a fantastic design. He quickly removed the roofing from the tree trunk with thoughts of expanding the building upward when given the option, and he also changed the sky from a baby blue to a fiery orange mixed with various colors to create an artificial dawn. Once he was satisfied with his customizations, he quickly materialized the building into existence and wandered inside, gawking at everything.

The physical representation of Luna was catching up to Edith in the form of a small spirit. Her facial features were simply otherworldly, and her eyes were a moon gray just like her hair. She was wearing a sun-like gown that complemented her appearance.

Edith quickly looked into the mirror that was in front of him when he abruptly screamed, alerting Luna and causing her to rush over. Edith screamed out once more, however this time it was in the form of words.

"W-who is that!?"
