Chapter 356 – Sarbal

Chapter 356: Sarbal

Aakesh was relaxing on his chair when he suddenly sensed several teleportations inside the store.

Soon, all the members of the Esh clan, except those who were in Panagea or had already completed their six hours, appeared in the store using their supreme cards.

They then thought of buying the pills to achieve their purpose for coming here.

After the payment got deducted from their cards for their purchases, three pills belonging to each category and grade appeared in their hands.

Since their purpose behind coming here was complete, and Veenesh, their leader didn\'t allow them to go anywhere else other than the store, they used their supreme cards and returned to where they came from.

The majority in the clan was below the Void Condensation, so they couldn\'t teleport using space. But the supreme card allowed everyone to select three locations, except the store to teleport back.

Irrespective of the level, any person can teleport back to the three selected locations from the store. This connection only worked from the store to those three places.

Users couldn\'t teleport back to those three places from anywhere other than the store, and also, those three locations were unchangeable. Once selected, they were fixed for life. Even if the customers bought another supreme card after the previous got lost and got somehow destroyed, even then changing them was impossible.

Since the clan members appeared and left without disturbing or needing Aakesh, he didn\'t open his eyes and stayed comfortable on his chair.

The store returned to its normal silence after the clan members left. Time flew by, and minutes passed.

"So this is the store," Sarbal commented as he looked at the building oozing majesty in front of him.

A crowd of tens of people had gathered, seeing Sarbal on the street.

Sarbal wasn\'t a human but belonged to the Dwarf race, and in that category, he belonged to the Fire Dwarves.

The Fire Dwarves were one of the subspecies of the Dwarves. As their name implied, the species was very close to the fire. They were one of the most talented species when it came to smithing when compared not only to other Dwarves but other races too.

Sarbal, like the usual Fire Dwarves, had dark skin, red hair, and in place of pupils, they had a raging fire of red color, the same as their hair.

As one of the species of the Dwarves, they were not very tall. Sarbal was an adult Dwarf. He only reached the chest of most of the crowd curiously looking at him, even though they only had average heights. But they were very bulky, as it could be seen from Sarbal. Sarbal was almost twice as thick as two humans.

Sarbal scoffed in disgust, seeing so many people looking at him like he was some object.

If it were not a human-dominated area, he would\'ve killed these humans, as the majority of them were only low-level cultivators. Sarbal, on the other hand, was a Level 8 Fire Mage, equivalent to a Tao Seed level Qi cultivator, so killing these was only a child play to him.

Sarbal didn\'t want a conflict with humans in human-dominated areas, so he only scoffed and ignored them. He had a purpose behind coming here, and that was the store. He took a step forward and went to the store.

The gathered crowd dispersed after Sarbal entered the store.

After entering the store, Sarbal\'s eyes fell on the floor first. He couldn\'t help but suck a cold breath of air as he recognized the Ashamba used in the hardwood.

After the shock of Ashamba subsided, his eyes fell on the blue-skinned man sleeping comfortably on his chair.

Sarbal\'s eyes shined, and his breathing got rough, seeing Aakesh as if he had seen a treasure.

Sarbal had a talent that helped him in judging the affinity of others with smithing, and according to his talent, he had never seen anyone having more affinity with smithing than the blue-skinned man in front of him.

Sarbal even forgot the purpose behind him coming here as he approached the man on the chair.

***

Aakesh, sensing footsteps approaching him, had to open his eyes. He then noticed a Fire Dwarf coming toward him.

Aakesh could see a smile and strange look on the Dwarf\'s face as he approached him.

"What do you think about smithing?" Sarbal asked Aakesh right away after reaching him.

Sarbal wanted the man to become his student, and then he would help him become the greatest Blacksmith in the Primal dimension.

Aakesh only stared at the Dwarf in response to his question.

The Dwarf also stared at Aakesh with burning eyes to know his answer. For a few seconds, a stalemate began between Aakesh and the Dwarf, for who\'ll blink his eyes first or move them away.

\'Why is the man staring at me? Did he not understand what I said? How can he not understand what I said when I spoke the language of humans spoken in these areas?\' Sarbal had several questions in his mind, seeing the man had no response to his question.

Sarbal finally was the first to give up, seeing those expressionless eyes staring at him. He felt as if the being in front of him was seeing through his soul. He also had a feeling that the man\'s eyes would devour him if he were to continue staring at it.

Sarbal didn\'t want to give up, so he asked again, "Do you want to become a Blacksmith?"

Just like the last time, Aakesh didn\'t speak anything and only stared at the Dwarf.

Sarbal\'s lips twitched, feeling another stalemate coming.

With a sigh, he moved his eyes away before the stalemate could begin, as the feeling of the man seeing through him felt very uncomfortable.

After that, a stalemate of silence began as Sarbal didn\'t know what to speak, and Aakesh only expressionlessly stared at him.

Finally, a deep breath broke the silence as the silence felt more threatening and uncomfortable for Sarbal than the stalemate of the eyes. His back had gotten entirely wet with cold sweat. He felt himself standing in a cold temperature despite being called a Fire Dwarf.

During the silence, Sarbal also recalled the purpose behind him coming here.. Remembering that, he couldn\'t help but slap his head in frustration.
