[A new store has been opened. Please check the new store.]
Clovis’ expression turned serious. This store would play a huge role in his task, so he hoped the store would be useful for this.
"What kind of store has just been opened, Blue?"
[It is considered a medical store, Master.]
"Medical store? Hospital? No, pharmacy?" Clovis thought for a moment. Now that he thought about it, there were some small ’medical’ stores inside a mall. It usually sold some medicines and could also be used for a little checkup. However, it wasn’t anything major like the hospital.
"Hmm...drugs?" Clovis squinted his eyes as he walked toward the medical store, wondering what it had to offer.
To his surprise, the medical store was much more unexpected than he originally thought.
The first thing he saw inside was just some medicine, but the effect was completely unexpected.
Name: Vampire Migraine Pill
Description: Helps to circulate your blood and remove your headache.
Effect: Improves blood circulation and boosts brain affinity by 80% for 30 minutes.
"What..." Clovis gasped. "80%? I don’t even know what it means by improving blood circulation."
[Whenever a vampire sucks someone’s blood, the additional blood will disrupt the vampire’s blood circulation, ultimately causing some headaches. By using this pill, you will be able to circulate the blood more thoroughly, resulting in your mind being clear. It will also boost your affinity.]
"Seriously?" Clovis took a step back. Even the food in the restaurant gave at most 30% for 30 minutes. Yet, this medicine completely destroyed that possibility.
[Yes. However, please check the warning on the back, Master.]
Clovis followed Blue’s instructions and found a warning.
"Can only be taken once a week. Twice will cause a serious side effect, and more might cause permanent brain damage."
"..." Clovis instantly understood why the medicine gave a huge boost. There was also a chance of getting a side effect. If he overdosed, it might not be weird if he ended up dying. "I see. Then, you should be careful when taking this pill. However, it gives a huge boost, so it might play a huge role as a trump card.
"Sometimes, your opponent might be much more terrifying than you originally thought, so you might need a drug ."
Clovis checked the other drugs in the store.
Their effect was indeed good, but only a few piqued his interest.
Name: Minotaur Protein Powder
Description: Want huge, bulky muscles like the minotaurs? Using this powder will develop one’s muscles.
Effect: Muscle Growth +10%
Warning: Can only be taken twice a month. More than that will cause the muscles to rupture. In the worst-case scenario, all the muscles in one’s body will grow and cause one’s body to deform.
Name: Zombie Painkiller
Description: Zombies can feel pain as well.
Effect: Pain Reduction 50% for 30 minutes
Warning: Can only be taken once per day.
Name: 100-year-old Spirit Ginseng
Description: Ginseng that has been cultivated deep in the mountains blessed by spirits.
Effect: Permanently increases the brain’s function by 5%, lowering the rate of aging by 30%.
Clovis couldn’t help but find these three interesting.
"It looks like in this store, there are four types of medicine. The first one is a booster that can be used as a trump card in a fight, the second one is a type of medicine related to recovery, from painkillers to some complicated drugs.
"The third type is the growth medicine, which is used to assist one’s growth. This is more like vitamins.
"Last but not least, a limited item. This ginseng is one of them. And unlike any other drugs, this one can permanently increase one’s physical condition.
"Looking at the effect, the girls will definitely fight each other if they find this." Clovis smiled wryly.
He could already imagine the moment he brought this ginseng to everyone, they would be fighting for the anti-aging instead of the other effect.
"Well..." Clovis paused. While looking around, he also noticed one thing. "Now that I think about it, there’s a closed area, right? What’s this all about, Blue? Also, what’s going on with the limited-time sale?"
[The closed area is actually a service area, Master.]
[Yes. Simple medical checkup, detoxification, and so on. Everything can be done there.]
"Detoxification... I see... It’s no wonder why I’m able to bring someone in once the service area is open. Don’t tell me, this is the first service area I will get after leveling this up."
[I can’t give any information about the next store. Regarding the limited time sale, it is as the name implies. This sale will appear again every month, but the item might be different.]
"I see. Then, I should buy it and wait for something else to appear. If there are multiple, I will probably give them to the girls."
[While I can’t give you the information about the next store, there is one thing that I would like to inform you about regarding the VIP condition.]
[Once you reach level 31, you are going to be considered our VVIP. From that point on, you won’t be charged a monthly fee anymore.]
[Due to the amount of money that will be used to renew your VVIP membership, you will be charged every year. Whenever you upgrade your level, the date of renewal will be updated to exactly 365 days from your new level.
[In addition, the required level to open a new store will be decreased to 2. To compensate for the sudden change, the management will be giving you a new store if you level up to level 32. It will be the beginning of the new leveling condition.]
"Hmm?" Clovis squinted his eyes. Now that he thought about it, the money required to upgrade the membership had increased significantly. This time, it was 1 billion otherworldly coins.
’Looking at the pattern of the upgrade requirements, I might need close to 10 billion if I want to pass the last three levels before the VVIP status.
’It will be hard even with everything I have to get 10 billion every month. I see. If it’s billed yearly after that, it’ll be much easier.
’I can understand the reason. Well, this is much better for me.’ Clovis nodded with a serious expression. "Thank you for the information. I guess this is a kind of temptation for me to upgrade to VVIP. Then again, looking at Hana’s expansion as well as my current situation, I might need one more year to reach level 31. And it’s better to upgrade it three times in one go.
"Anyway, I should get a few things first. I can’t let Mara wait for too long."
