Chapter 49:New Profession (1/2)

Sam and Kelly are walking downstairs. Kelly is a bit flustered 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 flustered 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?”

”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.

”You are too polite.”

”Can I take a look at your badge?” The manager asked.

Sam nodded and passed over his Artisan badge. Verifying that it was authentic, he smiled brighter and then said. ”I will finish the formalities right away. You can receive your VIP card after you have your meal. You can pay along with your food bill.” Manager said as he gestured the attendant to lead them to the fifth floor.

Sam and Kelly sat in private room of the fifth floor. He looked at the view through the window. Sam then looked at the artificial pond in the middle of the fifth-floor hall through the one-sided glass door. The floor tiles are all black in colour and even the floor underneath the pond are black in colour. Even the furniture is made with a black colour wood.

Soon, the waitress arrived with the dishes that they ordered. Sam cut his steak of fiery bear, which is a fire type beast. Kelly also started eating. After a while she asked Sam.

”Why did you take the VIP card? I don't think you would stay here often, do you?” She asked with plain curiosity. She knew better than to think that he took the card to impress her. That is why she asked him, why he spent so much, just to have a single meal. After all, level 2 beasts aren't something off the reach for Sam to eat.

Sam didn't answer and just smiled. Kelly also didn't probe further and continued eating. After they finished eating, Sam paid the bill along with the 10,000 spirit stones and took the Golden card which showed the VIP customer status.

Sam and Kelly walked out of the restaurant. Sam kept on fiddling with the card as he looked at the name of his and the restaurant.

”Black pond.” This is the name of the restaurant that he just visited. He went there just because, he wanted to see, what kind of place this is. The name made him curious and arouse his suspicions a bit. But when he saw the whole restaurant, he didn't find anything fishy.

He and Kelly went back to the Artisan tower and he took the tailor artisan exam. Sam took his time when he went into the testing room. The room is just like the previous time, it has glass walls and doors, except that the tools and equipment are of the tailors. There are all kinds of tools related to textiles like looms, mannequins, marking table, all types of special scissors, all sizes of stitching needles etc. Sam took out a black textile. This is the textile he made with the silk of Heaven spirit silk moth of fire type. Generally, the silk is in red colour, but he used a special technique and made the colour black. This type of silk can be considered as rank 3 tailoring materials.

The regular tailoring artisans are doesn't use this silk because, most of them in this realm might not even know this silk moth. Sam took a dress from Kelly which he is using to take her measurements. She is now looking from along with the spectators from the outside.

The spectators are of just like before, there are a lot of people waiting for him curiously. Because, there are only two tailor artisans in the entire city. They were here because, they want to see that if there would be a third one. Sam took some measuring ribbons he used to take the measurements and started measuring Kelly's dress.
