Chapter 29: Mission Complete, The Dimensional Store
The battlefield was silent now. Only corpses, shattered weapons, and blood-soaked earth remained.
Shin's steps echoed as he walked toward the dark fortress at the edge of the battlefield. With every step, the few surviving Simon soldiers fled in terror. Their commander was dead, their army broken.
Inside the fortress, chains rattled. In the deepest chamber, a young woman with torn royal garments lifted her head weakly. Her silver hair shimmered faintly even in the dim torchlight—Princess Leona of Nuva Kingdom.
Her eyes widened when she saw the blood-drenched figure enter.
> "You… who are you?" she whispered.
Shin didn't answer. He crushed the locks on her chains with one hand, breaking them apart as if they were clay. The princess stumbled forward, staring at him in awe.
> "You saved me… thank you. How can I ever repay—"
Ding!
Mission Complete!
Host is returning to Earth.
Before Leona could finish, Shin's body dissolved into glowing particles, vanishing before her eyes.
> "Wait…!" she cried out, reaching toward him. But he was gone.

When Shin opened his eyes again, he was back in his old hut by the jungle. The smell of blood and death was gone, replaced by the familiar scent of damp wood.
Ding!
Congratulations Host! You have completed the Dimensional Mission.
Reward: 10,000 Mission Points!
Shin smirked, leaning back against the wall.
> "10,000 points… finally, I can see what this so-called store has."
Ding!
Dimensional Store is now available. Opening interface…
A translucent screen appeared before Shin, its surface glowing with countless categories:
[Dimensional Store]
Weapons: Rusted Dagger (Free) → Spirit Blades → Divine Treasures → Immortal Armaments
Techniques: Body Refining Scrolls → Sacred Arts → Dao Scriptures
Treasures: Common Talismans → Spiritual Pills → Heavenly Treasures
Miscellaneous: Healing Elixirs, Bloodline Essences, Soul Refinement Items
Shin's eyes gleamed with excitement.
> "So this is the real value of Mission Points… weapons, techniques, bloodlines, treasures. All within my reach."
He cracked his knuckles, eager to test the system.
> "Alright, let's see what I can buy with 10,000 points."
The path forward had just expanded beyond imagination.
