"You..." Jacquelineâs words made Mogaro blush instantly, but he seemed to remember the purpose of his visit and immediately calmed down, following Jacqueline into the office.
...
"What? Lord Rein, you want to learn Witch Pattern Tailoring?" Jacqueline said with surprise.
"Yes, Master Jacqueline." Rein nodded, answering.
"Alright, with your status, coming to me to learn Witch Pattern Tailoring, I have no reason to refuse. Well, Mogaro, you can leave now." Jacqueline nodded, agreeing.
But she suddenly changed the topic and issued a dismissal order to Mogaro by the side!
At this time, Rein saw that there seemed to be some story between Jacqueline and Mentor Mogaro.
Moreover, it wasnât that Jacqueline had a bad temper.
To be precise, Jacqueline didnât have a good temper towards Mentor Mogaro.
"Lord Rein, do you know what a Witch Pattern is?" Jacqueline asked rather politely.
"Uh... not very clear. Oh, Master Jacqueline, you can just call me Rein."
Rein naturally wouldnât put on airs with Jacqueline, who was older and teaching him skills.
"Alright, Witch Patterns are actually a type of special Engraving, or you can understand it as forming special patterns by sewing with Witch Pattern Thread on fabric, thereby achieving effects similar to Engravings." Master Jacqueline explained with a smile.
"Sewn with Witch Pattern Thread?" Rein mulled over Jacquelineâs words in his mind, realizing something.
"Yes, Rein, come over and watch, Iâll demonstrate making the most basic low-level witchcraft tool, the âApprentice Robeâ." Jacqueline said while leading Rein to a crafting room beside them.
Jacqueline took up a spool of green thread emitting a faint Witchcraft Light, threaded a needle, and began sewing it onto a white silk robe.
Despite Jacqueline being over a hundred years old, her sewing speed was not slow.
As her fingers flew up and down, she quickly sewed Witch Pattern Thread onto the cuffs, neckline, and especially the lining of the robe.
Rein could clearly sense that the patterns formed by these Witch Pattern Threads were similar to patterns in Engravings.
Not that the patterns were identical, but the core shared some similarity.
"This Apprentice Robe has only one effect, which is to automatically cast the Zero Level witchcraft âDust Removal Techniqueâ every three days to keep the robe clean and tidy."
"It is also the standard robe for Wizard Apprentices in the school." Jacqueline explained while crafting.
Rein glanced at the Apprentice Robe, no wonder it looked so familiar.
It turned out that Wizard Apprentices in the school mostly wore these.
In less than ten minutes, Jacqueline took up the finished âApprentice Robeâ and handed it to Rein with a smile.
"Here, Rein, take a good look. I think if you can understand it, youâve basically got the entry-level grasp."
"Alright, thank you, Master Jacqueline!"
After receiving the Apprentice Robe, Rein carefully examined it.
The patterns formed by Witch Pattern Thread emitted a faint Witchcraft Light.
Moreover, the patterns in different areas gave an impression of being ingeniously similar to those of the âBasic Defense Engravingâ he had learned before.
It was as if one engraved a tiger on the surface of a Copper Tripod, and another embroidered a phoenix on silk, completely different in technique and craftsmanship, but the cultural core was the same.
Suddenly, a system prompt sounded in Reinâs mind:
[Ding! The host comprehends Witch Patterns, triggering subsequent profession change for Tailor Master - Witch Pattern Tailor (Transcendent)!]
[Pre-conditions for Tailor Master advancing to Witch Pattern Tailor: Firstly, Tailor Master lv5 or above; Secondly, Strength above 10 points, Constitution 12 points, Spirit above 18 points; Thirdly, independently produce any ten qualified Witch Pattern Tailoring products... Current conditions not met! Advancement to Witch Pattern Tailor failed!]
...
Seeing the system prompt, Rein couldnât help but smile.
Unexpectedly, after coming to the Bixiu Mechanization School, he didnât learn much else but first learned Witch Pattern Tailoring.
And from the profession change conditions, only the third condition was unmet.
And fulfilling this wasnât difficult.
"By the way, Master Jacqueline, are there any special requirements for the choice of fabric, can ordinary linen or silk be used?" Rein asked.
"Yes and no." Jacqueline thought for a moment and answered.
"If itâs just for making fabric armor witchcraft tools, silk is generally sufficient. But for higher levels, such as Witch Artifacts, special fabrics are needed."
"For example, the Witch Artifact âShadow Robeâ requires Demon Cloth as fabric, a special material soaked in Demon Blood, and the production process is accompanied by special rituals."
"Of course, the sewing method is more complex and extremely difficult." As Jacqueline spoke, her eyes revealed a trace of melancholy.
Clearly, due to limited talent, Master Jacqueline and Mentor Mogaro had both remained at the peak of First Level Wizards for many years.
As per Reinâs prior understanding, only a Second Level Liquidization Wizard might have the ability to craft even the lowest level Witch Artifact.
Meaning, Master Jacqueline before his eyes likely hadnât yet produced a Witch Pattern Tailoring product at the level of a Witch Artifact.
"And what about this Rune Line?" Rein picked up the spool of green thread Jacqueline had used, asking.
Upon picking it up, Rein realized the spool felt hard, nearly like steel wire, completely inconsistent with Jacquelineâs light movements earlier.
