Beyond Store
The protagonist of the story was standing in front of the building admiring the greatness.
He kept staring until the greatness suddenly starts moving towards him and stood in front of him.
His eyes still haven't moved. Continuously staring at the greatness.
"What exactly are you staring at"?
An angry voice came from somewhere but he ignored it thinking it can't possibly meant to him.
Then came the knock. He felt something on his foot and it took some time before pain kicked in and his vision expanded from the 'greatness' to his surroundings.
He looked at the lady in front of him carefully.

'F*ck! I messed up big this time. I need to get out of this situation as smoothly as possible'.
" Your brea... Ahem. I mean I was staring at your badge."
"My badge? And why would you be staring at my badge"?
" It's beyond store's badge after all. We are talking about a national superpower. There's no limits to the greatness this badge represents".
"I'll take it this time. The next time I see you staring at my 'badge' I'll slit your throat".
" Yes ma'am ".
He quickly went inside the building without looking back. For those wondering if he's planning to get this woman, he's not. I do like brea*ts and obviously the bigger the better but not too much. There's a limit to that as well. Too big doesn't even look real and they're not even arousing.
Beyond store in ralph town has four floors. Ground floor was mainly reception area and some rooms where people come to negotiate when selling something. For buyers, the store started from first floor.
When abhay entered the ground floor, he didn't found anything interesting. Because the man he copied memories of was poor and only knew where beyond store was and have never entered inside, abhay wasn't aware of the structure of this store.
He saw some people climbing up and down on the stairs and realized where to go.
He climbed the stairs and was met with an 'astonishing' view.
A supermarket. Nothing special. 8 rows of neatly arranged racks filled with different things such as pills, potions, herbs, weapons, armors and stones.
An attendent was standing in front of every rack introducing the stuff on display to the customers.
He looked at the price tags and saw that the most expensive thing on this floor was worth only 50 silver coins.
'Either this is all trash or I'm just not aware of my wealth. The stuff here is best in town so that can only mean one thing...I'm actually rich.
But how did that elder of a smaller town possess that immense amount of money.
And the amount of gold in that bandit hideout is also unreasonable. '
He chose some simple robes for him and tama for only 1 gold and 30 silver.
Abhay then headed to the second floor.
There were no racks here and it was empty from middle.
There was one round receptionist table making a complete circumference around the room. All the items were on display behind the table and many attendants were standing there.
Unlike the first floor, it wasn't crowded here. Only around fifteen-sixteen people were there.
He looked around and saw a black armor on didplay on his right.

Okay.
"I'll buy this armor. How much?"
"You have excellent choice sir. Let me introduce you to this.."
"No need for that. How much?"
"Yes sir. It will cost you 14 gold coins and 22 silver".
" Here". Abhay waved his hand and 14 gold coins and 22 silver neatly arranged coins appeared on the table.
The attendant then took the armor out of display and placed it on the table. He then removed a defense mechanism used to ensure the armor doesn't get damaged.
Abhay took the armor inside his ring.
He can't use his inventory in front of everyone so he also bought a ring from ground floor.
It has much more storage space and is more useful. He have around a thousand gold, twenty thousand silver and ten thousand bronze coins in his ring at the moment without removing the forteen gold and twenty two silver he just spent.
It was enough for shopping and won't need him to use his inventory for now.
The most expensive item on this floor was worth fifty gold coins. It was a shiny sword for looks only. He didn't needed it. He simply bought a pair of daggers and boots suitable for assassins as well.
He have decided to walk on the path of agility based fighter from human side and he still has OP class from demon side. The π.
He then headed for the third floor to look around but was dtopped by the guard.
He have been smoothly sailing inside the store due to the badge on his chest representing the city lord mansion which implies that he's rich.
Without that, these attendants wouldn't have treated him this politely.
Before he could say anything, a voice came from above the stairs.
"Let him in. He's an honourable customer".
Abhay was stunned and the guard was shocked.
Abhay was stunned because the moment he looked above the stairs, his always active skill kicked in. ... ...
βπππ: ??
??
??
This is his first time seeing something like this.
The guard was shocked because he knew whose voice this is. This was store manager.
A Sovereign who stands on equal footing with the Guardian elder of city lord mansion himself. Potentially the strongest in the city at the moment.
The reason he stopped abhay despite the badge because only few selected people were allowed to enter the third floor.
He didn't knew abhay and that was why he was shocked.
He immediately moved sideway to let abhay go to the top floor.
Abhay slowly moved up trying his best not to look nervous at all. When he arrived, he only saw three glass boxes in the middle and an empty room. The owner of the voice was nowhere to be seen and even the system stopped showing his profile.
He calmed down and looked at the boxes. A herb,a shield and a gauntlet.

Elena was about to reach the store.
