The group talked a bit more before they left.
Kyle grabbed all of the loot they had gathered on the Planet and went directly to the shop.
As soon as he entered, he saw the shop lady again, who was still watching videos on her Communicator.
"Meteor Hammer, Primal, Rarity Hunter. I'm here to hand over the loot of a new Planet," Kyle said.
Without looking away, the shop lady put a Space Ring on the counter, and Kyle put all the Beast Cores they had gathered in it.
The shop lady looked at the contents of the Space Ring and nodded.
"178 Contribution Points for each member," she said.
'Pretty good, considering they said that Planet had low profitability,' Kyle thought. 'Swamp Dragon was right when he said that we should focus on the beasts.'
"Hey, I got a question," Kyle said.
"Don't say you have a question," the shop lady commented with annoyance. "Just ask your question."
Kyle rolled his eyes.
"Is there stuff I can buy that helps with the Laws of Center, Mind, and Soul?" he asked.
Now, the shop lady rolled her eyes.
"Look at the auxiliary Law category in the shop," she commented with annoyance. "I would assume you can navigate and read a shop menu."
"Sure, thanks," Kyle said as he left the shop.
On his way back to his room, Kyle looked at the different items in the shop.
He hadn't looked at them in quite a while.
'I mean, the Contribution Points have to be useful for something, right? I wouldn't even know what to spend them on. Don't need weapons. Don't need Law Comprehension. Don't need treasures.'
Kyle navigated to the section regarding the Laws of Aspects, and he found several items.
'Huh, it's that easy?' he thought.
Law Comprehension for the Law of Mind for people talented in the Law of Soul.
Law Comprehension for the Law of Mind for people talented in the Law of Body.
Surprisingly, all the different items were for people talented in different things.
'I'm more of a body and Soul kinda guy,' Kyle thought. 'Not sure about the mind and the Center.'
As Kyle saw the prices, he had to take a deep breath.
'These fucking things are expensive!'
The cheapest one cost 300 Contribution Points, while the most expensive one cost 10,000 Contribution Points.
Funnily enough, the most expensive one was for the Law of Soul for people talented in the Law of Mind.
'Poor Manny,' Kyle thought.
The cheapest ones were all for the Law of Body, regardless of the Seeker's talent in other Aspects. 'Maybe that one is purposefully cheap since Primals desperately need the Law of Body.'
Kyle looked at the one for Law of Mind for people talented in the Law of Soul.
'3,000 Contribution Points,' he thought. 'Pretty fucking expensive. The one for the Law of Center is only 2,000 Contribution Points.'
'If I want both, I need about 900 more Contribution Points.'
'I wonder how expensive Law Comprehension for Lower Crusher Materials is.'
Kyle changed categories on the menu.
'800 Contribution Points, and I'm not allowed to make more than 5% of the materials unusable with experimentation. Any additional percent costs 100 Contribution Points.'
'That's crazy!'
Now that Kyle actually had Contribution Points, he was actually interested in the shop.
'Access to different Law Wells. Huh, the prices are different based on how good the Law Well is. I guess that makes sense.'
One of the cheapest ones was access to a Law Well for Yin-Fire. That thing only cost one Contribution Point per century.
However, there was another Law Well for Yin-Fire that cost 100 Contribution Points per century.
'It even tells me that I should have at least one century of uninterrupted time to look at it. Recommended are 300 years.'
Kyle thought about his timetable and sighed.
'I'm currently working, and afterwards, I have to go to another organization as an Exchange Seeker.'
'Can't look at it now.'
'Depending on how it goes, I might get some time after I'm back from my job as Exchange Seeker.'
'Seems like this thing has to wait.'
Kyle closed the window. Luckily, he hadn't wasted one of his three opportunities. Would be weird if opening the front page with the warnings that told someone that they only had three chances would consume one of the chances.
Kyle closed the shop as well and returned to his home gym.
'Right now, I don't have time to keep on swinging. It takes a long time to get into the swing of things, and I will probably be interrupted by another alert.'
'I think I should focus on my eighth Cluster before I go to the next organization.'
'The stronger I am, the quicker I will be sent back.'
Kyle looked at his eighth Cluster for a moment.
'Oh!' he thought in surprise.
'I'm already 90% there!'
'Seems like swinging my hammer around helped a lot!'
'Yep, shouldn't be difficult to unlock this thing before I leave.'
Next, Kyle took out his hammer and started attacking things again, but this time, he wasn't following his instincts.
This time, he consciously worked towards unlocking his eighth Cluster.
