205 Shop Level One Instance

Jin could not believe his eyes the moment he teleported into the dimensional instance. He would later aptly rename it as the Shop Level One Instance because it's simpler to remember that way. However, at the point of revealing the whole entire Shop Level One Instance, it was beyond his wild imaginations.

"I did say I would try my best to compensate you since you are not getting those other rewards yet." Yun smiled widely as she felt as if Jin was in a toy store, staring in awe at the entire place.

Indeed, the place had received an entire revamp with the unlimited space that the instance allowed. It portrayed a very spacious feeling and no doubt the customers joining this Shop Level One Instance would be in delight upon seeing the change.

When they were teleported in, both Jin and Yun were immediately at the epicentre of a massive circular shaped hall. And at the centre of the hall was where the new bar circular island was situated. Around the island, there were six cinematic like auditoriums and the bar island which was in the middle of the six auditoriums with low levelled ramps that lead to them. And yes, the auditoriums were the dimensional stations which the cultivators will have access to.

So technically, if you are standing at the centre, you had a view of all six different auditoriums. Each auditorium was separated by a very thin fogged reinforced glass similar to what the glass door was installed to protect the basement. The glass was capable of keeping the auditorium's noise level within its own area too so that the customers would not be distracted by the neighbouring auditorium.

Why would they do that? Because each auditorium had a cinematic widescreen that was able to portray crystal clear movies of the dungeons that people were participating in. In short, each auditorium was in truth a sort of movie theatre. Just that the seatings were free and anyone can come and go whenever they wanted.

What is most interesting was that the theatre did not only show the scenes of a particular dungeon. With dimensional technology, anything was possible and so were announcers and critics. Shop Level One Instance had employed their very own 'unique' announcers and they were none other than the penguin Mr Patsu and Bear Cub One, a trainee from Chef Roro's who was situated in the fishing service instance.

Mr Patsu was wearing a suit and carrying a headset mic wherever it went while Bear Cub One had a large red flashy bowtie and an old school cordless mic with him. The idea of the announcers was to hype up the dungeon fights especially when the instance was teeming with crowds. Jin thought that this was a really good idea since it was really funny to see Mr Patsu with Bear Cub One following it, running around the entire area.

The auditoriums did not only have an ultra high definition screen installed, but the couches were also equally of high quality. Yes, couches, not plastic seats. Four extended 'Kennedee' Curved Sofa were placed on each 'step' of the auditorium and that amounted to 24 of those sofas in each auditorium and there was a total of 144 in the current shop instance.

Was that a big idea? In fact, yes it is! For a sofa like that, it would have cost Jin 117,130 Yuan or 13,000 sterling pounds but knowing the System, it probably manufactured the sofas way cheaper than the current market price or had bought it at a very cheap price since he did not forget that the System was a business related entity.

Jin asked why such expensive sofas and Yun's answer was simple. To show that the shop had class and comfort. Springs, frame and the joinery were important for durability especially when the number of people using it would definitely be high considering the crowd size Jin always had in his shop. At the very least, they did not have to squeeze with each other as compared to the old store layout.

However, he wondered how long this spacious feeling would last or would it be even emptier. This was still subjective especially when all he went through was just the first month of business. That was why he thought the popularity from the customers were merely due to them finding the store as a refreshing novelty.

Fortunately, he was severely underestimating himself as the regular customers that he had, were growing by the day.

Aside from the auditorium, there was a unique feature of this particular shop instance. The epicentre of the circular hall was large enough for a second floor within this shop instance. However, it was still considered as floor 1.5 if Jin would name it because it served as a viewing floor with tables.

The tables were there for customers to have their snacks and drinks to rest and relax or wait for their friends if needed. Not to mention, they could purchase the instant meals at the bar island as per usual and bring the food up to eat.

What about Zhen Qing's caravan? It was no longer outside of Jin's shop since it would have been redundant and instead, it was stationed at the centre of the second floor so people were still able to buy black pepper pork buns from her. Because everything was interconnected with the dimensional technology, Jin even suggested placing some of the drinks and snacks at her caravan area in case customers craved for more.

"In truth, I would have wanted this shop instance the moment you started the shop but the System figured that people needed some gradual change as compared to an instant change." Yun tried to justify the late use of the shop instance.

"It's a good call. I think people would freak out if it started as a dimensional instance. At least there are people who are convinced that this is all part of the shop's feature. Besides, I think it would also help to transit well when they are teleported to the Dungeon City Fortress. They would think it was part of an instance too." Jin said

"It will definitely be part of an instance, your customers like the Dungeon World's monsters will not die, they are just using different 'laws of nature' to resurrect themselves. Besides, the System will not harm the customers no matter what. It is one of the system's laws or rules it could not break." Yun answered Jin.

"But they can harm the shop owner's pride, expectations and morals?" Jin was a little annoyed with that answer and Yun was rather speechless at his sudden spite.

"In any case…THANK YOU SYSTEM!" Jin shouted as loud as he could, as he knew that the System would probably just ignore him but Yun was astonished by Jin's sudden change of attitude or was it sarcasm? She could not figure it out at the moment."Give thanks and gratitude when it is appropriate. Grandpa Ming said so." Jin replied to Yun as he continued to look around the Shop Level One Instance.

And yes, because he was just a level 2.5 Dungeon Supplier, his other floors were not changed or incorporated into the new shop instance. Jin figured when he reached the full Level 3 Dungeon Supplier Rank, he should be able to get them.

For now, Jin thought of going into the Dungeon Maker and readjusting a few things in the Shop Level One Instance before he opened his store.
