BXBX NOVEL Chapter 179 Patchwork House
"A genius? Impossible! How can that be?" The teacher of Local History shook his head in denial. "Perhaps he has an above-average aptitude for your subject. As for mine, I still don\'t know if he was honest."
"So, what do you intend to do?" She questioned him.
"I\'m going to talk to the principal of Sector-1. I have no evidence against that brat, but if the principal takes the suspicion of cheating seriously, I\'m sure our superiors will notice something!"
"What if he\'s not cheating?"
"That\'s not possible! And even if he is not, good for him."
"We\'re only in Sector-1. That\'s still not something that impressive!" He turned and walked toward his destination.
Meanwhile, that woman kept looking at Lothur\'s exam, finding his answers impressive and learning something new.
\'That\'s interesting...\'
...
A few minutes later...
The teacher of Local History from Sector-1 finally sat in front of the principal of this part of the academy.
"Principal, I am here to talk about the student Lothur Ritter."
Upon hearing this, that man who only wanted an excuse to remove Lothur from this academy looked at the person in front of him with interest.
He had nothing against Lothur. But it was undeniable that this young man was a good-for-nothing who had come through the back doors of this academy. So, to prevent the prestigious name of this institution from tarnishing, this principal and other people from the Morning Star Academy had placed strict conditions for him to study here.
In this way, the principal of Sector-1 could not help but be interested to hear the sweet words of that teacher. "What did he do?"
The teacher replied. "I have no proof that he did anything, but I feel he cheated on my exam."
The principal frowned his eyebrows. "Why?"
"Because he got all the questions on my test right. But this was the hardest test I\'ve ever made, and he never attended my classes!" He said in an angry tone.
"He did that? But if he cheated, how could you not notice? Don\'t tell me you can\'t even watch a mortal?" The principal\'s voice seemed to be getting a little irritated at the incompetence of the person in front of him.
"Principal, he probably has his methods of deception..." The teacher insisted after swallowing his saliva. "Why don\'t we put someone more capable than me to watch him? I\'m sure he will cheat again in the next tests!"
The principal was silent for a moment, pondering the matter. \'It won\'t cost anything to watch him, and if he is indeed cheating, I\'ll have an excuse to expel him...\'
"Sigh!"
"All right, I\'ll watch the next exams he takes this week myself." He then looked seriously into that individual\'s eyes. "But if you are wrong, I will dismiss you."
Gulp!
"I\'m sure I\'m right!"
...
After a few hours, the end of the day was coming in Peters City when Lothur left Elke at the site of her last exam of the day and set off alongside Annaliese to the tailor shop, the Patchwork House.
They walked with haste in the direction of that place and soon entered the store they had visited together for the first time when Lothur was searching for a special outfit for the previous auction.
"Oh? You here?" The middle-aged woman, dressed very nicely, asked as she looked in Lothur\'s direction.
"Hmm," Lothur nodded to that woman and ignored the customers being served by other nearby attendants. "I have already learned the basics and produced my first item. Because of that, I have a few questions I want to respond to."
"You\'ve already learned? So fast?" She exclaimed in surprise, releasing the fabrics in her hands as she opened her eyes wide.
Annaliese liked that woman\'s shocked expression and laughed as she listened to her brother-in-law. "Yes, I even got some people interested in the product I produced. So, I want to settle the matters related to that item."
Her eyebrows frowned as she understood that Lothur should be after partners other than them. "Have you forgotten your contract?"
"No, so I am here to ask if you are interested in buying my product or if I can do business with others." He said as he removed the glove from his spatial ring.
"Oh?" She promptly took it, looking at it curiously. "So, that\'s what you did... Not bad for a first try."
She knew it had been made on his first attempt because every one of the materials given to him had been used on it. And knowing this, this woman could not help but notice how her judgment had been right.
\'His talent for tailoring is awe-inspiring!\' She placed the glove in her hand, understanding the basics of it.
After a moment, she said. "Lothur, this glove of yours is quite peculiar. But I\'m not the one who decides things here. So, I will send this item to the person in charge of this store."
"Then you will have to wait for a few days until we have a proposal for you or authorize you to trade it with others."
"I see..." He had expected something like this, so he did not bother to complain.
There was a self-destruct formation in that glove, so he had no fear of someone finding out exactly how his project worked.
He then said. "Besides this subject, I want to know how I get more materials and books. I doubt whether the materials I used in that glove are the best and most efficient for its purposes."
"Oh? You thought of that, huh?" She smiled, pleased that he had noticed such a thing without even needing the advice of a senior.
It was natural that an item with certain effects could be produced in \'n\' different ways. But just because the \'z\' way worked did not mean it was better than the \'b\' way.
Due to the inexperience of new professionals, many took time to discover the importance of seeking out the best materials for the purpose of their items.
And realizing such a thing on his own was further proof of Lothur\'s talent for this field of expertise!
"Very well," She put the glove away and began to explain the situation regarding this store. "Our agreement says that we will provide the teaching materials, so I will pass on more advanced books to you whenever you are ready."
"We will also provide you with a set with the materials necessary for you to put into practice the knowledge learned in those books. However, other materials will not be provided."
"That is the price of the freedom you sought with that agreement." She closed her eyes and smiled at him.
Lothur did not want to be limited by the goals of this organization for him regarding his role as a tailor, as well as not having to focus his time on that. Therefore, the support they would give him was not too significant and was down to passing on knowledge.
"Hmm, that\'s good." But, of course, he had expected this, so he was not disappointed. "Can you give me the contact information of any supply stores?"
"Hmm, I\'ll put that address in the materials book I\'ll give you now." She walked toward one of the doors in that area and went inside an inner room.
After a while, she returned with six different books.
