Chapter 160: Call from Duke (1/2)
After hearing the contents of the letter, General Spark became hopeless.
The person who made Jim like this and the person who is stopping Jim to recover is same and that person is a Novice brat whose age is smaller than him being a Nascent.
Suddenly, he remembered the previous setback he suffered, which led his three daughters to suffer along with him for offending someone.
But the difference is, at that time, he offended a person who has same strength as him but he has high-level background. This time though, the person is weaker than him and the strength difference cannot be simply described as a lot.
He only has one way now and that is to mediate the conflict.
Even though, the four towers of profession are operated separately, they are still a lot closer to each other than the ruling party of the territory.
According to him, Sam must have used his potential as a bargain, since he is only sixteen and he is already a rank 5 artisan to prevent Jim from receiving the treatment.
His guess was almost right, but the deal is not the future potential rather a recipe. Sam has so many recipes of potions and pills in the divine dimension and they are a lot more advanced than the ones that are in the market.
Sam picked one of the lowest level recipes available in the dimension library which is used for people below Grand realm to restore spiritual energy immediately and made a deal through Watt with the tower head.
Even if he is a rank 5 potion master an upgraded version of the potion, if it can be in his hands and he offered it to the superiors, that would be his contribution which provides him more opportunities for his future development.
But General didn't know this, if he did, he would have been surprised on how determined Sam is to oppress him by trading something so valuable.
General Spark thought for a moment and decided to visit the Duke, but before that he has to do something and that is to talk with his son-in-law.
So, he led his students to the Duke's estate and he entered the communication room used for communicating with the Marquises.
His students are waiting in room as one of them laid Jim on a table whose expression is devoid of life and light.
At this moment Sam is talking to the fourth regiment commander who is the instructor of the camp.
”I want to go out.”
His voice is devoid of any respect but the commander didn't mind and just asked nervously.
”Why?”
”I have something to do in Artisan tower. I am not going to interfere in the business mission of my teammates.” Sam took out his tailor artisan and weapon artisan badges as he spoke.
Instructor permitted him to leave and Sam immediately went to the artisan tower and that is to upgrade his status.
If his guess is right, the Duke will be summoning him by evening and he should increase his own value to have more weight of his words in the discussion.
So, he is here to work for it.
By the time, Sam is at the entrance of the Artisan tower, Watt is already waiting there with his scholar artisan badge.
Sam went in and after a few hours he came out with a new upgraded badge and that is his weapon artisan badge.
Now, he is a Rank 5 scholar artisan, Pseudo rank 3 tailor artisan, Pseudo rank 3 weapon artisan.
After that he didn't stop there, he and Watt made their way towards the formation tower and after that inscription tower.
Now he is a Rank 2 formation master and a pseudo-rank 3 inscription master.
How did he get the pseudo rank 3 inscription master? That has something to do with Etching and creation of inscription matrices using Rank 2 inscriptions, which has same effect as a rank 3 inscription.
Now, he is done with his preparations.
”The problem is mostly resolved. You guys can open the restaurant back. But ask Philip and Kelly to work on the impact crystals as much as possible.
But don't over-exert yourselves if you don't make it with the restaurant. The remaining businesses are already booming and it will hard to pierce the market. So, try your best but be safe and don't fall into other team's tricks. ”
Sam gave these instructions to Watt and flew away towards the camp on his hover board, while Watt himself returned to the estate to give the news to the rest.
