Chapter 1088: Ayana!
Ayana stood in front of the store, with Ladriel one step behind her. The planet Curiel wasn't very far from the range of her teleportation, so it didn't take much effort on Ayana's side to reach the store.
Ladriel's expression was ugly since things had gone differently than she expected. Her eyes were also filled with guilt since telling Ayana about the store was a betrayal of Ayriel.

"You are the store owner," Ayana said after she approached Aakesh.
She also felt wondrous about the quantity of the Eternal Stone and the dangerous sensation permeating every corner of the store.
Her tone didn't contain respect, but at the same time, it also didn't hold disdain toward Aakesh, which was rare for her. Ayana could feel that the store owner wasn't a simpleton, but things were vaster than she could anticipate, so she spoke neutrally.
