Chapter 49: New Profession

Sam and Kelly are walking downstairs. Kelly is a bit fl.u.s.tered as she saw Sam’s cold look. Even though, that is how he normally looks, she couldn’t help but think that he became colder because of the meeting.

"I am sorry." She apologized in a gentle tone. Sam looked at her abruptly and saw her fl.u.s.tered look and smiled a little.

"It has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to apologize." Kelly heaved a sigh of relief and looked at him. Sam thought of something and asked.

"How many Artisanship does this tower has?"N♡vεlB¡n: Where Every Word Sparks Wonder.

"The Falcon cliff tower has four Artisanship. Weapon Artisan, Painter Artisan, Scholar Artisan and Tailor Artisan." She answered immediately. Sam nodded and went into a deep thought. When she saw Sam was thinking she waited a while and asked.

"Sam, I have a request." Sam looked at her with a questioning gaze.

"Can you make a dress for me?" She asked in a very low voice that at the end it, Sam almost didn’t hear at all.

Sam chuckled and said. "Sure. Let’s go." He said as he walked towards the reception.

Kelly was shocked and stood there rooted for a second. She really didn’t expect that Sam would easily accept. She was contemplating whether she heard it right or not and by the time she came out of daze, she saw Sam already talking to the receptionist. After sometime, he and Kelly both came out of the tower.

"What did you ask at the reception?" Kelly asked out of curiosity.

"Nothing. I want to take the tailor artisan exam. So, I asked her about the details. We will comeback here after lunch. I will make you dress as I take the examination." He said with a smile.

"Thank you so much Sam." Kelly became excited. She really had enough of Freya’s bragging.

Sam just smiled and both of them walked towards a nearby restaurant. The restaurant is so high-end and luxurious. It has five floors and even the waitresses and receptionist also dressed exquisitely. An attendant welcomed them and asked.

"Sir, which floor do you want to eat?"

Sam was a bit confused, then Kelly explained from the side.

"Each floor has difference in service and food. The first floor only serves normal food. Second floor serves the level 1 beasts but the service is normal and the beasts are reared. The third floor is level 1 beasts and they are wild game. The fourth floor is for level 2 beasts of lower level and fifth floor is for level 2 beasts at middle-stage and late-stage. The higher the floor, the higher the service."

"Oh, we will go to the fifth floor then." Sam said as he looked at the attendant. Attendant gave a smile and said.

"Sir, to dine in the fifth floor, you should have a golden grade VIP card. To obtain the card, you have to pay 10000 spirit stones and you also need to have a certain status." The smile on her face is still there and voice was absolutely polite.

"This status would be enough. I guess?" Sam showed his scholar Artisan badge and the attendant clearly became surprised. She came out of her daze and said hurriedly.

"Let me call our manager." She said and left quickly. After a few minutes, she came with a middle-aged man, whose Cultivation seemed to be at Peak of novice. He wore a black robe and his face is cleanly shaven and a bit pale. He has a shoulder length long hair. He can be considered handsome. He walked towards Sam and greeted them politely.

"I heard that young sir here is of esteemed status. Sorry, for not receiving you myself." His voice was humble and polite. Sam looked at the man and his deep brown eyes and replied.

He took the garment and fixed a part of it between the two frames. He supported the wooden frames on a stool like metal frame in such a way that the garment surface is parallel to the floor and the place below the cloth is hollow.

Sam sat down on the floor and took out a long needle, which has a hook on one side. He took out a thread bundle which is also black in colour. He placed the black thread under the cloth and then stabbed the needle from the side of the hook. The hook held the thread and when he pulled it through the hole he jabbed first and a small loop of thread came out of the cloth surface. He then jabbed the cloth between the loop and pulled another small loop of the thread and made a very small knot and the process continued and after a few moments, he made a maple leaf pattern on the cloth, he made numerous leaf patterns and after the part of the cloth that is in the frame is done, he changed it and fixed another part of the cloth. Soon, all the garment pieces he prepared are embroidered with the black leafy patterns. Even though the cloth and the embroidery are of same colour, they can be seen clearly because of the contrast provided due to the difference in thickness of the thread.

Sam smirked with satisfaction as he saw the successful embroidery. When spectators looked at him, they were beyond confused. What kind of technique is that? This is the question that is bugging everyone’s mind. Of course, they won’t know that. Because, this is a traditional Indian embroidery technique called Aari also known as maggam. How would these guys know that?

Sam walked towards the female mannequin. And started sewing the dress. Soon, the dress took shape. What Sam is doing right now, was completely unfamiliar to the spectators. This looked like a gown, but it is too slim to call that.

They can’t decide it, because Sam is making a traditional Chinese dress. It is a Cheongsam. The black cheongsam with a collar. It has buttons to the right side of the chest. The dress reached all the way below the calves almost reaching the ankles. There is slit on the right side up to the knee. Which won’t be visible unless they made a vigorous movement.

Sam particularly made this cheongsam because, for him apart from an Indian saree, a cheongsam is the only thing that enhances the beauty of a woman like Kelly. When a charm of the bodily features and skin reach a certain level, their beauty can only be enhanced by simple clothing. That is the reason why, he didn’t do an extravagant embroidery like he did with dresses of Haley and Freya. After the cheongsam is completed, Sam took the dress to the testing platform.

Basically, the tailor artisans are tested mostly for the skills and the effective usage of the material. Even though the cloths are used mostly for defence, the effectiveness of the defence that can be obtained through the usage of the cloth is the most important in the testing. Not only that, the test will also take the beauty and aesthetics into the considerations.

After waiting for a few minutes, the platform brightened. A badge appeared. This time also, the badge is black in colour. Everyone gasped in surprise but when they saw the number on the badge, the surprise turned into surprise.

Sam held the badge in his hands as the result appeared on the screen.

"Product name- Unknown

Product type- Dress

Creator- Sam

Rank of the Product- Rank 3. There are six golden stars below it.

In the same way, there is a cloth and a needle symbol. A number 3. Total of six stars.

Sam became a pseudo rank 3 Artisan just like that.

Sam walked towards the exit along with the dress and the badge. Kelly finally took a good look at the dress. Her eyes were almost filled with stars as she saw the dress carefully. The skilled craftsmanship. The design. The exquisite look took her breath away. When Sam saw her lovestruck fool like appearance, he stored the dress away and said.

"It is not ready yet. I will give it to you tomorrow morning." Sam said pouring cold water on her expectations.

Both of them walked back to the mansion as sun started to set.

At the same time another person is walking towards the Northern region from the Eastern region. This guy is extremely familiar to Sam. It is none other than Eisen. Today, after Sam went out with Kelly, Jack went to meet the Principal to show him the mansion. Eisen tagged along and when he saw the mansion, he burned with jealousy.

Then another news made him even more angry. It is the news about Kelly and Sam going out together. This made him even more jealous, that he almost wanted to destroy the whole mansion.

He is walking towards the piranha organisation to place an assignment.
