The Villain's Shopping System

In the year 2050, the world changed drastically when mysterious portals began to randomly appear, bringing with them terrifying monsters dubbed Transcendents and unimaginable dangers. Humanity nearly collapsed entirely, and the survivors took refuge in cities and secure areas, protected by individuals with special abilities called Awakened. These Awakened were the only humans capable of entering the portals and exploring the unknown realms on the other side, in search of resources, treasures, glory, or answers. Kaito, on the other hand, was just an unhappy young man who found solace in a classic online game called Mortal Tower, where he created an avatar of a powerful and charismatic villain. While many hoped to become Awakened, Kaito believed that even if he lived a million lives, he would never have the fortune to become one. However, one fateful day, fate played a trick on him. He woke up and naturally looked at his reflection in the bathroom mirror, but he could hardly believe what he saw. Kaito strangely resembled his Mortal Tower avatar. And to make things even better, Kaito somehow inherited the purchasing system from Mortal Tower, which would allow him to buy all kinds of items, from rare abilities to legendary equipment! Now, Kaito has to deal with his new life in an almost post-apocalyptic world full of opportunities, but also with a new great challenge called Celestial Abode, something even greater than the classic dungeon-crawling portals, something so similar to the early floors of Mortal Tower that it scares him. However, Kaito sets a goal for himself: conquer the top of both worlds, but he doesn't know it will cost him his selflessness. (Obs: No, he's still not a villain at first. There is a development for him to become a villain.) Main Tags: Action, Weaktostrong, Male MC, System and Shopping Schedule: 14 chapters/week.

Chapter 146 - Orc

Kaito doesn't have a pickaxe to mine the Moon Crystal, but even if he did he wouldn't use it. The clang of the pick hitting the stone would echo not only throughout the chamber, but also through a good part of the tunnels he'd traveled through, and that would definitely be more than enough to wake up the Orc standing a few meters away from him.

For this reason, while the monster's deep snoring seems to shake the whole cave, Kaito, with his small knife, fits the tip of the blade into a small gap and tries to delicately extract a Moon Crystal or at least the fraction of one.

This is a job that requires a lot of care, because if Kaito pushes too hard, he'll break the stone and make a noise, and if he doesn't push at all, he won't be able to remove the Moon Crystal from the rock. And as simple as it sounds, mining isn't easy, because it requires attention not to damage the gem either.
