The Omnistore System

"We made it," Keyara exclaimed with a slight smile as they disembarked from the hover car and hurried towards the towering structure in the sky, their ride back home.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt

The ship resembled a gleaming golden bullet, its front curved while the rest of the body remained cylindrical, adorned with a large single thruster at the rear and smaller thrusters on the sides. A grand staircase descended from one of the hangars, bustling with cultivators disembarking, some carrying rare finds.

Emblazoned on the ship's side was the unmistakable logo of the Loviataro Emporium, depicting a veiled figure, akin to the emblem adorning the coins issued by the emporium.

As they walked toward the staircase, Kevin couldn't help but notice a slight tension between Keyara and Viana as they made their way towards the ship. There was an awkwardness in the air that Kevin couldn't quite pinpoint, but he had a feeling it had something to do with the prank he had pulled earlier.

As they reached the staircase leading up to the ship, Kevin decided to address the elephant in the room. "Hey, everything okay between you two?" he asked, casting a concerned glance at Keyara and Viana.

The comment caused both women to blush, and Viana shook her head, replying, "No, it's nothing, really."

Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, his smile returning. "Good to hear. I was worried something happened because of the prank I pulled earlier."

Keyara's expression darkened slightly as she retorted, "Just because nothing happened doesn't mean I'm not going to beat you for it."

"You should be thanking me instead of threatening to beat me," Kevin retorted, a hint of surprise in his tone.

Both women looked at him with confusion, and this time Viana spoke up, asking, "Thanking you? For what? Sending me to bathe while she's still in... what this does?... besides fulfilling your perverse fantasies?" Her disgust was evident as she questioned him.

Kevin gave them a skeptical look and said, "My perverse fantasy? Remember last night when someone was all into showing off to your granddaughter, getting all wild and lewd?" That made Viana blush, but Kevin wasn't done. He turned to Keyara, adding, "And who was the one sneaking a peek from behind the door, while jacking off.. almost forgetting you are her granddaughter..." Both of them went quiet, heading up the stairs with flushed faces. Kevin just shook his head, muttering, "And they call me the pervert..."

Keyara couldn't hold back her frustration. "You manipulated us into that... don't tell me you didn't deliberately leave the door open."

Kevin chuckled, unapologetic. "Yeah, I did, but I didn't ask you to look inside or even abuse yourself while doing it."

The tall woman's anger flared as he said this, her tone rising slightly. "Oh, abusing myself? Now you're getting religious after doing... so many disgusting things..."

Viana's frustration peaked as she witnessed them bickering like children. With a huff of irritation, she abruptly turned away, her anger evident in the swift movement of her steps. Without a word, she stormed off, her departure punctuating the tension between Kevin and Keyara as they both went silent..

Which Kevin broke after a moment as he watched Viana hand her ticket to the entrance attendant. "You made her angry," he pointedly remarked, laying the blame on Keyara for Viana's evident frustration.

Keyara scoffed at Kevin's remark. "It's fine; we already don't talk much," she retorted. Then, turning toward him with a smirk, she added, "But for you or mostly, your dick won't be seeing any action for the entire ride home."

Kevin chuckled, unfazed by Keyara's threat. "Well, you don't seem to know your grandma that well," he remarked casually as they approached the ship's entrance. "If you did, you would've known that I only have to show it to her, and there'll be more action than you got to see last night," he teased, flashing a mischievous grin.

Keyara felt a mixture of anger and embarrassment rise within her at Kevin's teasing, her cheeks flushing red with irritation. However, she opted to say nothing, instead keeping her focus on boarding the ship. As they entered the vessel, she made a mental note to give Kevin a piece of her mind later, but for now, she maintained a steely silence, determined not to give him the satisfaction of a response.

The hanger bay of the commercial travel ship was vast and bustling with activity. Bright overhead lights illuminated the space, casting a warm glow over the scene below. Rows of sleek hovercraft were neatly parked along the walls, their polished surfaces gleaming in the artificial light.

Passengers bustled about, some eagerly boarding the ship while others bid farewell to loved ones. Uniformed crew members moved efficiently through the crowd, directing travelers and assisting with luggage. The air was filled with the hum of conversation and the occasional sound of luggage being wheeled across the polished floor.

Above, the curved walls of the hanger extended upward, disappearing into the distance. Large windows lined the upper reaches, offering glimpses of the bustling spaceport beyond. The atmosphere was one of organized chaos, with a sense of excitement and anticipation palpable in the air as passengers prepared to embark on their journey.

As they made their way across the hanger bay, a process that took a solid six minutes of walking, they approached a narrow space where armored individuals were diligently inspecting those boarding the ship. The line wasn't overly long, populated mostly by individuals who appeared either injured or too weak to remain in the area any longer. Others seemed to have urgent matters to attend to outside of the den.

In just a brief span of two to three months, the den had transformed into a bustling trading hub for the surrounding cities. Kevin had even heard rumors that the Emporium was considering expanding their den business to other countries. It seemed that their ships were uniquely equipped to navigate the dangerous skies of the region without issue, making them indispensable for travel in this area.
