Capítulo 4: Exploring the Shop

*Chirp*

*Chirp*

Waking up early the next morning to the sound of birds chirping, Rai began to pack his things back into his inventory as he allowed Akatsuki to sleep in. He understood that she probably was mentally exhausted due to everything which happened yesterday and he wanted to give her some time to get used to it naturally.

The only reason he was able to stomach the entire situation was one, he had died previously so he knew he didn't have anywhere to 'return' to. Secondly, due to the memories 'god' had given him he already felt as if he had lived inside this world for many years already.

After he had finished packing up all of his belongings, Rai decided that while he was waiting for Akatsuki to awaken it would be a good time to go over some things he previously put off.

First and foremost was the 'Shop' option in his status menu.

Calling open his Status menu and selecting the Shop option, lead Rai to a new screen which had a similar layout to his inventory.

The shop would tell you the name of the item on the left, then it's equipment grade or rank right next to the name. In the middle was a short description of the item and it's uses. Then on the right hand side was the cost of the item, how much you could get for selling it back to the shop (which was less then the buying price), as well as the quantity of how many you were buying or selling.

At the top left of his screen it showed him how many SP he had to spend which was currently at 7.5 million thanks to his wish.

Overall, this meant that if Rai happened to find an item just out in the world, he could convert it into SP as long as it was featured in the shop. In fact it seemed more unlikely for an item NOT to be featured seeing how practically everything he could imagine was for sale inside the Shop.

He had even managed to find some items for sale that he remembered from other games and novels.

Rai: "…Interesting…"

--------------------------

«[Zanpakutō] - Rank: D->A (Rank depends on multiple factors.) - A sword that possesses a living spirit which empowers the sword and lends its strength to the person who wields it. The sword is capable of cutting spiritual bodies. - Cost: 75,000 -> 1,000,000 (SP) - Sell: 30,000 -> 250,000 (SP)»

--------------------------

«[Absolute: Seven Sins] - Rank: SS - Lust/Gluttony/Greed/Sloth/Wrath/Envy/Pride - Seven Cardinal Sins which grant the user a specific power in association to the sin. - Cost: 3,000,000 (SP) - Sell: 500,000 (SP) (Cost lowered when bought before [Absolute: Seven Virtues])»

«[Absolute: Seven Virtues] - Rank: SS - Chastity/Temperance/Charity/Diligence/Patience/Kindness/Humility - Seven Cardinal Virtues which grant the user a specific power in association to the virtue. - Cost: 3,000,000 (SP) - Sell: 500,000 (SP) (Cost lowered when bought after [Absolute: Seven Sins]. Must by bought within 30 seconds after purchase of [Absolute: Seven Sins], otherwise deal is void. Cost for both skills will be a total of 2,000,000 (SP) when bought together. Unable to be sold if bought together.)»

--------------------------

«[Gate of Babylon] - Rank: A - Connects the space of reality to your vault, opening an "invisible door" that allows for the contents to pass through upon the user's command. - Cost: 500,000 (SP) - Sell: 250,000 (SP)»

«[Gilgamesh: Gate of Babylon] - Rank: SSS - The storehouse Gilgamesh built to store all the treasures in the world he has collected, referred to as the "Divine Gate". - Cost: 5,000,000 (SP) - Sell: 2,500,000 (SP) (Cost reduced to 4,000,000 (SP) if user already has [Gate of Babylon]. Unable to be sold if bought after.)»

--------------------------

«[Hakai] - Rank: SSS - The power to destroy almost anything with little effort, even intangible beings such as souls. Does not work on immortal beings. (Would be rank X if useable on gods) - Cost: 7,500,000 (SP) - Sell: None Refundable»

--------------------------

There were many other skills and equipment listed but Rai was mainly interesting in those few at the moment.

Rai: "Let's see…I have 7,500,000 (SP) to use. Although the skill [Hakai] would be broken, it would cost me all of my points. I can always come back to it and purchase it after I have saved up once again, however, I don't know how hard it will be to actually acquire SP again. After all it took 70% of a wish from a godly being to get 7.5 million. Yet it was totally worth it if I can get something like Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon, something which is a wish in its own right." *(AN-1)*

Rai decided to spend the better part of an hour to continued scanning through the Shop list in order to see if he liked anything else before finalizing his purchase. Yet despite looking through thousands of options, he felt as if he had barely scratched the surface of the list even after limiting the search to things under 7.5 million in cost.

Rai: "Alright…I could be here for days so I mine as well just come to a decision. After all, the items from the Shop will be a key factor in me being able to save this world. It's easier to destroy a world, then to save it after all. As such I will need to increase my personal strength as much as possible before hand."

Thinking until here, Rai began to finalize his purchase.

Rai: "Haaa…that was stressful…I'll hold onto the points I got from those quests until I decide what to do with them. At least with these new abilities I should be able to survive against most enemies that I cross paths with in the future. Currently I am only level 90, there are many new creatures that have been introduced with the new expansion. I am far from being able to take on a level 100 raid boss alone anytime soon, yet at least with all of this I won't need to rely on others and with enough time I should be able to hold my own against even the toughest of foes."

Having gone over everything he had obtain once more, Rai began to follow the plan he had formed when he had mapped out his purchases.

A plan which would shock even the gods.

Rai: "System…Inventory…"

Once he opened his new Inventory, Rai noticed some changes. Rather then bringing him right to his item screen like normal it instead presented him with two options, [Treasury] and [Bag]. Clicking on the [Treasury] option he discovered that he possessed the knowledge of everything he owned. A seemingly unlimited amount of weapons, armors, wine, gold, everything he previously owned as well seemed to be inside of his [Treasury]. Yet when he tried to see the description of an item like in the past, he was unable to. Going back and clicking on his [Bag] option, gave him the option to bring things from his [Treasury] and place them into his [Bag] where he can then view them in a more in-depth manner.

Having understood that this was his Inventory upgrade, Rai didn't waste any time as he gave a mental command and an Item appeared within his [Bag].

Clicking on the item and seeing its description once more, he wasted no more time as he selecting the 'Use' button. The item Rai had used was one of his newly obtained items…[Inner Realm]…

Rai: "Alright with all of that out of the way, it's time to pay a visit to my Inner world."

After giving a mental command, Rai disappeared from his previous location.

A certain young ninja who was sleeping nearby, had her breathing slow to a crawl as the entire world seemed to have become frozen in time.

Back with Rai, he reappeared inside of a vast forest.

Rai: "It's hard to believe this is the inside of a tiny orb located in my own body…"

The item [Inner World] created a small orb inside of the users body. Yet although the orb itself was small, the space inside was anything but. True to its name, inside of the orb was a massive pocket dimension nearly 5000km in size. Yet rather then a spherical planet it instead more closely resembled a massive floating island. Where beyond the island was nothing but a cold dark and chaotic void capable of shredding any being who dared venture into it.

During the creation process, Rai had imagined that the world was divided into five sectors. The 'Central' sector would be his personal area. It was 1000km in size and was surrounded by a massive, ornate, yet seemingly impenetrable wall. Inside of the wall was farming fields, rivers, mountains and more. At the very center of the area was a large city that was 250km in size which was also surrounded by a massive wall. Thanks to everything being create through his imagination during the initial phase, all of the buildings were already furnished and operational.

There were shops, restaurants, governmental buildings, storage facilities, class buildings, workshops and everything else one would expect to see inside of a city of that size. Near the center of the city was a large castle that seemed as if it was made directly from crystal, which was actually the case. When creating his castle, Rai had envisioned it being formed from crystalized elements such as fire, water, ex. It needed to be both sturdy and long lasting so all of the crystals were reinforced with magic and cycled energy though the world making it impervious to magic and near indestructible with only the perimeter walls proving to be stronger in physical defense.

Rai: "Hmm…it looks nice and all but without any people it looks more like a ghost town then anything. Oh well, although I cant bring people into this world, it doesn't mean I cant 'create' living beings in here."

Thinking about living things inhabiting his world, Rai turned his attention to the area outside of the central sector.

To the East was a vast forest with enormous trees and large mountains that seemed to stretch into the clouds.

To the South was a barren land, with massive volcanos that spewed lava without end.

To the West was a series of rocky terrain that were surrounded with grasslands, swamps and even a rainforest.

To the North of the central region was a large ocean with the occasional islands here and there.

In the future Rai had planed to purchase or obtain guardian beasts to inhabit those areas. Yet with him receiving SP from unexpected quests, he decided it was a good idea to do it now.

Without wasting any time, Rai spread his awareness throughout his world. He noticed that just after the system had finished chiming, in all four directions, a large sphere of light had appeared.

As if it they were merely eggs, the spheres of lights began to crack open simultaneously. Once the light elemental sphere had completely broken apart, what appeared in their place was four massive creatures.

True to their names, there was a enormous dragon with azure colored scales soaring between the trees to the East. To the South was a large phoenix like bird that was beginning to curl up beneath its wings inside one the largest volcano in that region, as if it was going to take a long slumber. To the West was a massive white tiger that perched itself on top of a rock formation while basking in the artificially created sun which was comprised of light elements. To the North within the vast sea, was a large island covered in vegetation. The odd thing was that the island was moving ever at a pace that seemed slow, yet in realty was quite fast. When the island neared land, suddenly from the front of the island a massive dragon like head popped out of the water before it opened its large maw and released a loud bellow. The massive creature that revealed itself to be a turtle, climbed onto land with earthquake inducing steps. Once its entire body was on land, its head shrunk back into its shell as its body formed a new mountain. From behind the turtle, a massive snake exited the shell and curled itself around this newly formed mountain before closing its eyes. Once all was said and done, the massive being seemed to have blended in perfectly with the surroundings.

Watching all of this happen caused Rai to grow excited.

Rai: "Although I had prepared myself…this is just too cool! Such a sight isn't something one could have seen in my old world, even with how advanced video games and technology have become. This [Inner World] was defiantly worth more then merely 1 million (SP). Although I guess it would depend on ones circumstance as well. If I hadn't wished for (SP) from the start and had some to spare, I would have never prioritized this item. On top of that, to reveal its full potential one would need a system, so if they just somehow obtained it out in the world through luck or chance, then it might not have been anything grand."

Thinking of the other changes that were induced in the [Inner World], Rai brought his attention away from the massive mythological creatures and turned it towards his next objective. Figuring out what changes happened due to the System merging with the [Inner World].

Once he thought of this, he was transported to another area.

Author's Note: I know this was a lot of back and forth between the system notifications and Rai, however I wanted to highlight the importance of the Shop and how trully broken that feature is. In many system Fanfic's I have noticed that in some instances the author doesn't even have the MC use the shop and if he does its for like one chapter (Not all of them of course some authors are way better then me at characterization). Him having a system shop which gives him access to many powerful skills and abilities is a cheat and this chapter was dedicated to that as well as laying the foundation for his future strength.

----------------------

(AN-1): The reason he obtained so many points when a wish could be [Gilgamesh: Gate of Babylon], is becuase as seen in many cases, often an actual 'object' is worth more then the currency used to purchase it. To 'god' giving him 7,500,000 System Points is easier then granting him the skill [Hakai] which is also worth 7,500,000 System Points.

----------------------

(AN-2): The only reason he was given the obtion to merge [Absolute: Seven Sins] and [Absolute: Seven Virtues] is due to his fifth wish. Granting him the ability to create and modify his skills. Due to the feature to 'create' new skills already excisting in Elder Tale, he was instead granted the ability to modify his skills and merge compatable skills to create stronger variants. This feature was incorperated into the system.

-----------------------

(AN-3): For the city at the center of his world, think of Attack on Titan's walls in a way. Its not exactly like that and the city inside is more fantasy like, but its the best example i can give.

It wouldn't be a Fanfic without pocket dimensions, and the 4 heavenly beasts.
