Mark couldn\'t help but imagine how Allen might be able to kill Bai Xun whom Alina fell into a disadvantage during their last battle.

Unfortunately for him, the system decided to put brakes on his excitement, right away. Despite having 10 points of temporary luck, nothing could stop the disappointing notifications from the system.

*Ding! Upgrading from rank-5 to rank-6 requires two upgrade crystals. So, the host must collect one more crystal. The system recommends the host raise the ether quality, instead.

"Hmm… raising my ether quality, huh," Mark pondered on it for a while. Normally, with 10 points of luck, he will clear the lottery wheel in five more weeks even if no lottery pick is acquired.

So, that means… to upgrade Allen to rank-6, he should wait atleast a minimum of five weeks and a maximum of ten weeks. If one considers such time from a broad view, two-three months isn\'t big deal. However, the rate of Mark and his store\'s improvement is visible to everyone.

In three months, who knows how the situation will change. But, if he can upgrade his ether quality, he can start working on ether points. With a rank-5 cultivation base, Mark\'s ether points\' current limit is about 100 thousand but at the present, he only had a little more than 2000.

Clearly, there\'s so much to do.

After weighing his options for a long time, Mark made his decision.

"System, how long does the ether upgrade take?" He asked.

*Ding! 60 minutes. During this time, the familiars\' inventory and the skills that use ether energy will be inaccessible.

"Okay, upgrade the ether quality." He said as he touched the yellow crystal to his own forehead, following the instructions. It disappeared into himself.

*Ding! The Upgrade crystal is consumed. The process of Ether quality upgrade has been started.

60 minutes will pass away in a blink of an eye. So, he comfortably sat on his chair and waited for the customers.

After a while, Chang Bo returned in loosely fitted new clothes and started training. Allen dragged to each section of the weapons, explaining to him in detail so that the teenager can do the same to the customers.

About 30-40 minutes later, Allen left for Lin Clan\'s Mansion to spar with Lin Xue. Chang Bo was trying his best to remember the details of the weapons that he had never seen in his life.

A couple of new customers arrived during Allen\'s absence. Mark didn\'t move from the spot and put the work on Chang Bo, telling them that he is a new employee.

The sales assistant robot was dismissed by Mark to see how the kid will fare alone. He asked Alina to keep an eye on him but told her to not intervene, just observe him from far.

Surprisingly, Chang Bo integrated into his job very quickly. He first started the explanation about the store\'s enormous space to those who were looking around.

"It\'s an application of space magic. I was told that our master\'s acquaintance helped out." He explained while first taking them to the handguns section.

"Here, this is…"

Ten minutes later;

"Thank you for the purchase. Please stop by again." Mark gave a big smile as he handed the box full of 9mm bullets about 50 in number along with a P365 Pistol (10 rounds).

From the overall bill of 40 gold coins, Mark made a profit of 24 gold coins. Normally, he should be happy but as soon as the two customers left, Mark\'s facial expression changed.

He turned towards Chang Bo who kowtowed right away, "I apologize, Lord Lu. Please forgive me."

At first, Chang Bo was full of confidence when he escorted the customers to the weapon section. Because there was a board attached about the details at each section, it didn\'t pose a problem either.

With Alina around, even the weapon testing had no issues.

But, at the last moment, during the package, Chang Bo messed up by packaging P226 (20-round) instead of P365 (10-round).

If Mark didn\'t check it before handing it to the customers, he would have made 20 gold coins of loss. While the amount isn\'t a big deal, why should he incur losses because of this welpire brat?

He was already paying an enormous salary just to keep him as a servant. Now he had to double-check everything so that he won\'t suffer losses?

Mark wanted to get angry at him but in the end, he let out a sigh, "it\'s alright. Beginner mistakes happen on the first day. Just make sure to not do the same mistake again."

"Thank you, Lord Lu." Chang Bo bowed again before standing on his feet and getting back to his work.

Emperor\'s Chamber, Imperial Palace;

"Arresting Lu Zhen? Xiao Jiao, what are you saying?" The Emperor was in disbelief upon hearing that the disappearance of Ji Guanli has to do with none other than the owner of Genesis store.

These days, all the major developments in the Empire are only about him. From making trouble to the noble clans to helping out the second prince, he was hearing a lot of news.

Everyone in the city is also talking about the amazing interior inside the store located in the Hanga district.

When asked for the evidence, Shang Jiao then replied, "There\'s one. He\'s a disciple of the Mt. Hua Sect. He was assaulted by Lu Zhen but managed to escape with his life. Before that, he witnessed the abduction of Guanli."

"No, he can\'t be the witness, my daughter." The Emperor let out a deep sigh. He explained, "Mt. Hua sect is a close ally of Sui Clan. Lu Zhen was enemies with Sui Clan. The case won\'t hold up and we would unnecessarily make enemies out of him. He had done enough contributions for the Empire, you know.

If he once again pulls out that commoner card, people would just think that we are ungrateful people who hold grudges on commoners for standing up to us. I can\'t give an order of arrest based on that."

"Father, the Kunyu bandits themselves had written that the transaction had to be taken place before Lu Zhen. What is better proof than this?" Shang Jiao, the fifth princess argued back to prove her point.

Unfortunately for her, the Emperor countered her statement right away with a simple fact, "Lu Zhen will then argue that it is because of the suppression inside his store. Even Bai Xun will be helpless as a chicken once he enters the store. So, that place is quite suitable for such large transactions."

"Argh… then, is there nothing we can do?" The fifth princess felt agitated for her hopes were dashed away. "Father, we cannot let such a person get away with a crime."

"Well, if Ji Guanli himself testify it and then if we get a confession from the leader or a top member of Kunyu bandits about Lu Zhen\'s involvement, the Imperial palace is helpless," replied the Emperor while letting out a bitter smile.

As an afterthought, he added, "Honestly, even if it is the case, I want to forgive him. I had a deal with him, you know. Three mighty flying puppets, those weapons can make the Imperial palace powerful enough to suppress the majority of the guilds and sects."

When she heard it, the teenager took a step back with her eyes widened in surprise. "They were right. Lu Zhen has the support of the Emperor."
