Chapter 943: Signing the Contract
Chapter 943: Signing the Contract
Su Yu knew better than to show up empty-handed and ask for help; that would only get him turned away.
He brought the Heart of the Great Demon Ankdiel, a gift that Belvith couldn't refuse.
Su Yu explained, "The true form of the Great Demon Ankdiel isn't in the Void Realm but in the Shadow Realm. He ended up there by chance.
He's already dead, his body shattered, and only his heart remains, preserved by a collector in the Shadow Realm.
I knew you would want this, so I bought it from the collector."
"Ah, I see," the Void Empress's cold voice echoed from outside the temple. "No wonder we searched the entire Void Realm and couldn't find him. The bastard must have sneaked off to another world!"
After becoming the ruler of the Void Realm, the Void Empress immediately dispatched a large number of people to search the abyss for Ankdiel.
They scoured the entire abyss, even searching the bedroom of the Abyss Lord Annabelle (formerly Anonqiong), but they never found Ankdiel or the trace of her sister's soul.
It turned out the situation was far more complicated than they had imagined.
...
At that moment, the kitten Morningstar poked her head out of the pet space, curiously licking her lips. "The heart of a Great Demon? Starcrusher, is it tasty? Can I have it?"
Hearing this, Belvith's body tensed, and a terrifying ripple appeared in the void outside the temple.
Sarah (formerly Sharan), a bit frightened, cautiously stepped back to Su Yu's side.
Su Yu reached out, gently petting the kitten's head, and smiled. "Morningstar, you can't have this right now. If Master Belvith agrees to our request, I'll give it to you as a snack later."
"Yay!"
Su Yu turned to the nervous Belvith. "Master Belvith, can you help me craft a divine-level suit? I've brought enough materials with me.
If you agree, we can sign a contract, and I'll give you the heart."
"Deal!" Belvith replied without hesitation. "I'll do my best to craft the equipment for you! Just give me the heart, and everything is fine!"
The Void Empress, of course, had no objections and soon left. From the way she left, it was clear she was quite pleased.
...
After some negotiation, the two parties formally signed the contract in the temple.
Belvith agreed to do her best to craft the suit for Su Yu, and Su Yu would give her the heart.
During the signing process, Sarah kept giving Su Yu meaningful glances, hinting that he should mention her.
However, Su Yu ignored her, calmly discussing the contract details with Belvith as if she weren't there.
It wasn't until Sarah's eyes turned to a pleading look, almost on the verge of kneeling, that Su Yu finally smiled at Belvith. "Master Belvith, there's one more favor I'd like to ask."
"Oh? What is it?" Belvith smoothed her hair.
"This," Su Yu pulled Sarah to his side. "This is the teacher of the Golden Fleur-de-lis Empire's Empress—Sarah. Sarah is also a tailor, but she has been stuck at the Grandmaster level for many years. Could you, in exchange for the heart, give her some guidance?"
Sarah nodded eagerly. "Master Belvith, I won't take your guidance for free. I can pay you whatever you want, and I promise not to reveal your teachings to anyone!"
Belvith didn't answer immediately but sized Sarah up and down.
From the beginning, she had noticed this small follower of Su Yu and guessed her intentions from their exchange of glances.
For Su Yu's sake, giving her a bit of guidance wasn't out of the question.
"Alright, I can guide you," Belvith nodded.
Sarah was overjoyed.
Belvith added, "I can guide you, and you don't need to pay me anything.
However, I won't teach you the most core techniques. When I craft the suit for Starcrusher, you can stand beside me and watch. How much you learn will depend on your own efforts, young lady."
"Sure, no problem!" Sarah said excitedly.
Although Belvith said she wouldn't teach her the most core techniques, even a divine-level tailor would have to use the most advanced methods to craft such a suit. Just standing by and watching would be immensely beneficial!
"Could this be the opportunity for me to break through to the Divine Tailor level in the next few days?"
Sharan was left in awe.
...
Upon hearing Beilvis's words, Su Yu was taken aback.
A young girl? Beilvis actually called Sharan a young girl?
Though Sharan was a dark elf with the appearance of a beautiful woman in her mid-twenties, she was, in fact, an ancient being who had lived for over a thousand years! To call such an ancient entity a "young girl" was something Su Yu found hard to accept.
...
By now, the contract had been finalized.
Without a word, Su Yu took out the Heart of the Great Demon Ankdel and handed it to Beilvis.
He wasn't worried that she would take the heart and not do her part. In the game world, the binding power of a contract was incredibly strong, even for a god-tier entity.
If Beilvis dared to violate the contract, she would never break through to the god tier, so there was no way she would risk it.
Moreover, once Beilvis advanced her power with the heart, her tailoring skills would greatly improve, leading to higher-quality equipment. This was beneficial for Su Yu.
Beilvis took the heart with immense excitement.
This was something she had been waiting for over a thousand years! She never thought she would get it like this!
"By the way, Lord Counter, how did you know I needed this heart?" Beilvis, playing with the heart she had longed for, could hardly believe her experience today was real.
Su Yu smiled and said, "Didn't I already explain? I am a Seer. As long as I want to know something, I can pay a price to divine it.
Through divination, I determined you needed this heart, and I also found out where it was. So, I brought it to you."
"Seers are truly remarkable!" Beilvis was overwhelmed with emotion.
In the past, she had encountered some who claimed to be "seers," but they turned out to be frauds. They were more like predictors with extremely low accuracy.
This was the first time she had met a Seer as powerful as Su Yu.
"Please follow me," Beilvis carefully stored the heart and led the way. "I'll take you to my workshop. There, we can discuss the details of the set's creation."
She also said to Morning Star, "Respected Starry Cat, we have many Holy Light Voidfish in the lake behind our temple..."
Before she could finish, Morning Star shot out of the pet space, her face filled with excitement. "What? Holy Light Voidfish? Why didn't you say so earlier!"
With that, Morning Star transformed into a streak of starlight and vanished, heading straight for the backyard.
Beilvis: "..."
She had only meant to be polite and offer a few Voidfish to Morning Star.
She never expected the cat to run so fast, disappearing in an instant!
If things went badly, her entire pond of Voidfish might be devoured by the cat!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look worried.
Su Yu scratched his head awkwardly. "Sorry, Morning Star is always like this. She can't control herself when she hears about food... But don't worry, I'll send her a message to eat fewer Voidfish."
"Um... alright, follow me." Beilvis collected herself and continued leading the way.
Upon reflection, her pond of Voidfish was nothing compared to the heart, so she stopped worrying about it.
...
The three of them (whether Beilvis counted as a person was debatable, but for now, let's consider her one) proceeded through the glowing corridors of the temple.
Finally, they arrived at a massive workshop.
Beilvis, being a god-tier tailor, had a workshop that spanned thousands of square meters!
The workshop was filled with various precious materials from the Void Realm and other worlds (most of which she had bought from plane traders).
Su Yu looked around, recognizing only a small fraction of the materials, all of which were extremely valuable.
Honestly, the workshop left him in awe!
Sharan's expression was one of utter surprise.
Though she and Beilvis were both seventh-tier powerhouses and tailors, her collection could never compare to the vast array of treasures here.
Compared to Beilvis's workshop, hers was like a beggar's hut!
So, she looked at the materials with a ravenous gaze.
Beilvis was very pleased with Su Yu and Sharan's reactions.
Since she stopped making equipment for outsiders, it had been centuries since she had seen such amazed expressions.
Bielvis walked gracefully forward, leading the two to a "drawing board."
It was indeed a drawing board.
Bielvis picked up the colored pencils beside the board and, with a few swift strokes, sketched out a nude male figure, each muscle clearly defined.
"Cough, cough, no need to be so detailed," Su Yu quickly interrupted when he saw Bielvis about to add more intricate details to the male figure. He had no interest in such a detailed male nude, and creating equipment didn't require that level of precision.
"Alright." Bielvis put the colored pencils aside and turned to Su Yu. "So, Mr. Kexing, what materials have you brought? And what type of equipment are you looking to create?"
Su Yu opened his backpack and spatial ring, taking out the materials he had prepared one by one. "This is [Divine Cloth], widely regarded as the best material for making cloth armor..."
"[Divine Cloth]... Wait, the quality of your [Divine Cloth] is quite high!" Bielvis took the roll of [Divine Cloth] Su Yu handed her and immediately felt its uniqueness.
She carefully rubbed the [Divine Cloth] between her fingers, and her eyes widened in amazement. "The quality of this [Divine Cloth] is simply extraordinary! I've used many such materials before, but I've never seen one of this caliber!"
Sara, who was standing beside them, was also taken aback, her eyes fixed in disbelief.
As a top-tier tailor, she had used many materials, but she had never seen [Divine Cloth] of this quality.
She reached out to touch the [Divine Cloth], and the incredibly smooth texture made her exclaim, "Kexing, where did you get this roll of [Divine Cloth]? This quality must be Legendary! I've never seen Legendary-quality [Divine Cloth] before!"
"Hehe, it's not a big deal," Su Yu modestly waved his hand.
"That's not true!" Sara suddenly realized something was off and stared intently at Su Yu. "If I remember correctly, only a Master Tailor can weave Legendary-quality [Divine Cloth]. Even someone of my Grandmaster level can only weave Epic-quality at best! Does that mean you know another Master Tailor?!"
Bielvis also turned her gaze to Su Yu, intrigued.
A Master Tailor? There were others besides her?
Just how many talented friends did Su Yu have... no, how many Master Tailors did he know?
"Uh... I don't know any other Master Tailors. As far as I know, Bielvis is the only one in the world," Su Yu explained, somewhat helplessly. "I bought this roll of [Divine Cloth] from Master Winkotar."
Bielvis was a unique Master Tailor, which was why he had come to the Void Realm. After all, the Void Realm was at war with the main plane, and coming here would raise suspicions.
"Winkotar?" Sara's face was filled with disbelief. "I know his level. How could a Master Tailor possibly weave Legendary-quality [Divine Cloth]?!"
Winkotar was a Wood Spirit Tailor Master from the Wood Plane, and Sara had dealt with him before.
A Master Tailor could only weave the most basic ordinary [Divine Cloth]; she couldn't believe Winkotar could produce something of this quality.
Seeing the puzzled looks on Sara and Bielvis's faces, Su Yu continued, "Winkotar doesn't have that capability. When I bought it from him, it was just ordinary-quality [Divine Cloth].
However, I used some special techniques to upgrade it to Legendary quality."
"Special techniques?"
"Yes, but I won't reveal the specifics. It's my personal secret."
"I see." Bielvis and Sara exchanged a glance. Though disappointed, they didn't press further.
Every strong individual had their secrets, and they weren't about to pry.
Su Yu continued to take out materials from his spatial ring and backpack. "This is the crystal core of the [King of Spatial Elements], of Seventh Rank quality!
This is [Feather Resilience Thread], the best thread for [Divine Cloth], also of Legendary quality.
Legendary-quality [Radiant Ink]..."
Every material Su Yu presented was of Legendary quality.
By the end, Bielvis and Sara were thoroughly overwhelmed.
Heavens! How could everything be Legendary quality?
Can't you at least show us something of a slightly lower grade? Even an Epic-quality material would do!
