After a long sleep, his health stabilized and he decided to plan out his training. He wanted to maximize it to the most, but had to consider resting time and Rosy.
Speaking of Rosy, she wanted to stay with Crius and check on his health, regardless of how he wanted to avoid it. She went even that far, that she watched him sprint. Crius thought of using a circle to sprint, instead of running far and avoid troubles again.
After he finally was done with the quest and could rest on the ground, he saw a notification in front of him.
——Quest completed——
Rewards will be projected...
-1000 Points granted
-Absorb Qi Ability information will be send
„Finally!"
After 7 days of constant sprinting and push-ups every day, he finally completed the quest and got his rewards. Although he never visited the store before, the System told him, the rewards are mediocre. Still, Crius was satisfied and wanted to check out the Shop after so long. He tried to think of it or imagine a way to enter...
„Have I been scammed...?"
He tried many usual ways you would know of, but to no avail and the thought of being scammed sounded realistic.
„Nah, you are just stupid. You can enter by saying it in your mind. Afterwards, you can choose the category you like and search for anything you need. Your points aren't much, but you can still buy some things and before you ask later on, I will explain the locked sections, after you leave the shop."
He was slightly confused and thought by locked sections of a former shooting-game. There, you need to reach a level to unlock weapons. He prayed it won't be a level system and believed there must be some god, that will surely help him out.
He said 'enter shop' in his mind and understood, that it is supposed to be a command. Suddenly, he was in a unfamiliar dimension. It reminded him of those toy-shops and saw four ground parts divided in four colors.
The part on his left, was red. Crius saw packs of blood and some had various color, like green, blue or shining red. He didn't really understand, why they look like that, but he couldn't read the name tags. They were clouded and it stood firm, even if he tried to read somehow. He recalled System words and stopped trying.
He moved on to the gray part before him and saw different weapons. The exhibition was magnificent and stunning. From daggers to swords to lances, it had every kind of weapon in the display cabinets and the weapon, that piqued his interest the most, was a long sword.
It had a cherry-red wooden long handle with several holes, each with engravings. The guard and blade collar was hold simple with a black-purple metal. The blade was 90 cm long and the blade was pitch black, while the groove and back had a shining blue-violet line. The blade ridge, edge and point looked sharp enough, to cut mountains in seconds to pieces.
Crius eyes were focused entirely on the sword and he wanted to wield it. Despite the fact, it was like a long katana, he felt oppressive aura around it, stopping him in his tracks. He was scared and started to sweat. He jumped back and held his distance.
„Damn it! That sword was great!"
He was depressed not being able to wield for at least a second or look from closer. The only weapon, that looked interesting, was a Katana, but the truth was, the most weapons had either oppressive auras or were clouded. He was too ashamed and looked at the Katana. The wooden handle and guard was really simple. The blade was dark red and looked very sharp, but not astonishing as the other weapon. He had no choice, as the other weapons were too pricey and decided to get this one. He paid 200 points.
He moved on to the left, the former right and it was the purple part. He was stunned, because he saw absolutely nothing, than only one body, that looked really big, with multiple arms and heads. After he saw the price tag, he turned around and moved to the next part, not even casting a glance.
This time it was the blue part, that looked similar to a library. It had bookshelves and incredibly many books. Crius felt heartwarming feelings, because he enjoyed books and searched for a interesting book. He found rarely ones, that he could read the title of. He chose 'Simple Fire Manipulation' and read trough it. It took him twenty seconds, because it had many pages. In fact, it only had five pages, explaining the fire attribute and Mana affection, to manipulate and use fire with Mana or Fire Qi.
He thought of trying it out and left the Store.
