The Merchant Princess's Magical Online Emporium

•CHAPTER 4•

Yxellra's POV

With a sigh of relief, I managed to finish the dry piece of bread and the slightly overripe banana.

It wasn't a luxurious meal by any means, but it would sustain me for now.

The prospect of tackling the monumental task of cleaning my new room loomed, but it was a challenge I was willing to face.

Looking around the neglected space, I couldn't help but feel a sense of responsibility.

I needed to ensure the room was clean and well-maintained to protect my health and present a more favorable image to those around me.

After all, appearances did matter in the courtly world of duchies and nobility.

Determined to get started, I reopened the online store with the words "open sesame."

As I navigated through its interface, I searched for cleaning supplies.

To my astonishment, the store offered a range of items – brooms, mops, cleaning solutions, and more. It was as if this online emporium had anticipated my needs.

I selected the cleaning items I required, and with a few taps on the holographic screen, a box appeared in front of me.

Opening it, I found everything I had ordered, neatly organized and ready for use.

As an unexpected bonus, I discovered an additional package of chocolate lollipops, an indulgence that brought a smile to my face.

It seemed that the online store was not only practical but also generous in its offerings.

I couldn't resist the temptation to enjoy one of the lollipops.

As I savored its sweetness, I set to work on the task at hand.

I tied my golden locks out of the way and started the laborious process of cleaning the room, determined to transform it into a space that reflected my newfound sense of self-respect.

As I toiled, wiping away years of dust and grime, I couldn't help but reflect on the unusual circumstances that had brought me to this place.

It was as if I had been given a second chance at life – a chance to rewrite my story and make a place for myself in a world that had initially rejected me.

Hours passed, and the room began to take shape.

I could see the gleam of polished wood and the shimmer of clean glass.

The once dim and forgotten space now sparkled with renewed life.

I was exhausted but satisfied with my progress.

I decided to take a moment to rest, collapsing onto the invitingly soft bed.

As I lay there, my eyes heavy with fatigue, I remembered to check my online store account.

The currency I had accumulated through tasks and savings had grown substantially. I was pleasantly surprised by the wealth I had amassed.

I ordered a refreshing, cold juice from the online store and eagerly sipped it, reveling in its sweetness.

I also explored the list of tasks that needed to be completed.

There were various challenges, from simple errands to more complex endeavors, but I felt a renewed sense of determination to conquer them all.

As I contemplated the tasks, fatigue finally overcame me.

I set the online store aside, feeling grateful for its presence and the possibilities it offered.

With a contented sigh, I drifted off into a deep, restful sleep, looking forward to the new day.
