The rise of the pervert primordial

With Felicia's help, Sarina and Kana brought the dishes to the table, as always Kana sat on Aster's lap and only then everyone started to eat.

While they were enjoying their food, Agnes gazed at Aster and asked.

"Do you already have a store in mind to buy what you need?".

Aster shook his head in response.

"No, when we walked through the commercial district of the center capital, I mostly saw stores that sold materials, pills, elixirs or treasures, but we already have all of that, I only need some furniture for the store right?".

"Mm", Eris and Mylene nodded in recognition, although the things related to alchemy and rune mastering and Spirit Blacksmithing in Lilia's spaceship were all limited to the Stellar grade, that was more than enough for this stellar system where technically the Transcending realms were the apex.

So, they only needed things like showcases, shelves, weapon racks, couches etc, nothing particularly hard to get, but for some reason he didn't see any store having them on display.

"The rent for big locals at the center capital is often too expensive for those who need big spaces… the store of elder Helena is a special case, normally only the law enforcers and supreme elders have those space type formations in their residences".

"As for other buildings, only the treasury, the auction house, the punishment hall and the mission hall have access to that kind of increased space formations, and all of them are managed by the sect".

Aster nodded, stores which sold large products, had two options, operate in a medium sized local and attend a few clients at the time while using spatial treasures to keep their products, only taking them out when needed, or biting the bullet and getting a big local which wasn't too popular.

"You won't find a store like that at the center capital, but at our east sky there is one, you also have a discount for being a member of the Black Sword faction, so I suggest you to first try your luck there, if not we can always go look at the cities of the Green Sword and Red Sword factions".

Once everyone had their fill, and after Alice and Kana fell in love with the dessert Agnes brought to share with them, they left the castle and using Aster's authority they disappeared from the Twin Sword valley.

…

A few seconds later, their surroundings changed from the valley to a city majorly painted in blue and black, even from where they appeared which was just a few meters past the frontal gate, the mansion of the city lord could be seen right at the center of the city, crowned with a white flag with a black sword emblem.

The other thing that drew Aster's attention was that unlike the other cities he has visited before, there were only girls here he even saw regular disciples happily chatting with inner or core disciples, the atmosphere was pretty harmonious.

So of course, Aster stood out like a sore thumb, making many of the disciples who were minding their business a moment ago, see on his direction, some even approached them with curious filled expressions.

"Elder sister Agnes, since when you got us junior brothers~", asked a tall girl with shoulder length hair blue hair and a large sword on her back, judging by the ring in her left hand she was a core disciple and since she seemed to be in her middle twenties, she should be one of the veteran disciples.

"Sister Elisa, you just returned so you might haven't heard about it, the black haired one is the only male core disciple and is also a part of our Black Sword peak", said another girl who was attracted by the small commotion.

"Ah, the kid who saved the girls of the Green Lotus faction from the Dry Bone bandits?".

Seeing that more disciples were gathering around them, Agnes clapped her hands.

"Ahem, don't bother your new brother, you can introduce yourselves in another occasion".

Most of the girls didn't look convinced, but since Agnes's expression became serious, they had no option but to obey.

"Fine, we'll all be at the Black Firmament restaurant, in case you want to catch up with us sisters~", said the girls before leaving.

Aster saw Alice and the girls laughing at him, even Lilia found the situation rather amusing.

"Perhaps you should use a veil this time darling~", said Lilia as she hugged her son from behind.

Aster on the other hand didn't know whether he should laugh or cry, even now that those girls weren't surrounding him, he could still feel a couple of gazes on him, as if he was some kind of rare magical creature.

'It sure is a curious sensation, not that I care about it though', he thought.

"I'm sorry about that, unlike the other factions, the Black Sword faction doesn't have a minimum rank required to accept disciples, the sole rule is that they should show the potential to be core disciples in the near future".

"Of course, with the admission trials only that can't be calculated, so there are some girls in charge of monitoring how do the new disciples fair, and if they qualify, they are invited over, a slow start doesn't mean that one is limited to be a weakling, and a fast start doesn't imply one is a genius after all".

"Only disciples of our faction can enter this city, so at this point these girls are used to treat each other like sisters, regardless of their status… also they never expected for a man to be accepted in the faction for the previous reasons, no one has ever shown the potential to be a core disciple".

"Oh", Aster couldn't help but agree with the ideology of the Black Sword faction, he took his time to advance because he wanted to reach the perfection in each realm, if not by this time he would have already caught up with Aria probably.

What interested him was who proposed such a different set of rules in this faction, and that also reminded him, that while Lilia once was the ancestor of the battle peak, there should be someone else taking that role for the time being.

"It's fine, that means a certain troublemakers would be able to come here by themselves, without causing too much of a ruckus", mumbled Aster, as he stole a gaze at Alice.

In this city, the one who would attract attention was him, so the girls could wander around as they pleased, it was a fresh sensation.

Seeing Lilia giggling, Aster chuckled.

'She knew we would end up joining this faction, and probably knew the rules of this place', he thought.

Leaving aside that little episode, Agnes guided them through the East Sky city, it was pretty similar to the one of the center capital, with the only exception that there was no auction house nor life and death arena, also the missions offered here were exclusively for the members of the Black Sword faction.

Once they arrived at the commercial district, Agnes took them to a large warehouse like store, with glass gates to show everyone what was displayed inside, it reminded Aster of a furniture store from earth, with the only difference that the guards here used swords and other cold weapons as well as armor.

"Elder sister Agnes, how can we help you today", as soon as they entered the store, a short girl who seemed to be a regular disciple came to attend them with a bright smiling expression.

Apparently, this store was pretty popular among the disciples, because there were three floors showing the different designs and there were also a lot of girls buying or seeing the furniture.

"Hello, Nana, I brought new members to look for some things they need for a store, neutral designs please".

The short girl Nana, stared at Aster for a couple of seconds, before she answered.

"Mm, please follow me to the third floor~".

Nana took them to the third floor, which was completely used to display the largest products they sold, they came in sets and were made of different materials, wood, jade, metal and even some other minerals or carved using bones of spirit beasts.

The girls took over to choose what they wanted for the family store, besides Eris, Mylene, Camila, Sarina and Kana who will be having their own space in the store, the one in charge of the counter was Aria, as for Alice she asked to be the one in charge of the security, an excuse to beat others basically.

Lilia would be in charge of accepting missions specially issued for them, which she was sure would happen once the achievements of Aster reach the correct ears.

Felicia was invited to help Sarina and Tiana instead joined Alice, Aster was supposed to be the blacksmith but he wouldn't be making things until he has gained enough experience, Erick and Sofia weren't too fond of any profession so they stuck to hunt spirit beasts for their materials which later would be used for the store, everyone had their own role.

Nana was a bit surprised to see a new disciple buying so many things at the same time, the quality of their products was quite high, and so was the price, the sect gave all the inner disciples a place to live which already included basic furniture, they had to personalize their residences with their own money, so a recurrent scene was to see them just choosing one thing at the time.

'I knew things would be expensive, but damn… luckily that Daniel guy was quite loaded', thought Aster as he paid all the things the girls choose for the store, the total was of about eighty million low grade spirit jades.

While Aster considered how good of a business would hunting down the members of evil sects could be, Agnes gave Nana the direction of Helena's store, so that the things would be delivered there later.

By the time they left the store, it was about to be midday, so Agnes guided them to the amphitheater where the lesson imparted by the core elder, she mentioned would take place.

There was still some time left before it started, so they all got to sit together and waited for the core elder to appear, other disciples arrived from time to time, but most of them were inner of even regular disciples, but they weren't from the same batch that took the trials with the girls, but the previous one, so they were all new faces.

Of course, they started whispering between each other as they saw Aster and Erick, and then some familiar people started appearing, including some of the core disciples that earlier surrounded them in the street.

'These girls…', thought Agnes as she bitterly smiled, although she expected them to be curious about Aster and Erick, she thought they wouldn't pay them too much attention after that, but that seemed to not be the case.

Unfortunately, Agnes had no way to know what other girls thought, because the women from the royal branch of the Fey family were attracted by the aspects of the soul, nor the physical appearance, so what she found appealing to the eye, she thought others wouldn't, or at least that was normally the case.

But this time, she was wrong.
