The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 848

With Rae’s new skills, their shop needed some new sections. They had set everything up for magical accessories, but they also had silk available, and they could make custom armour.

Convincing Rae to make a Commander Rank sales piece wouldn’t be easy, but they could make a mannequin to advertise their custom armour services.

There had to be those who preferred leather armour in the city, and they weren’t prohibited from selling the actual bolts of silk, which would be insanely expensive.

A few dressmakers and merchants would certainly buy up any stock that Rae made, and when it was at lower qualities, she could make huge amounts of silk cloth without running out of energy.

So, that was her first contribution to the shop.

Ten rolls of Commander Rank silk in nine solid colours and one black roll with pink cherry tree blossoms on it were arranged along the wall when the first customers came in the next morning, looking for potions.

The word of the silk spread quickly, though the visitors didn’t know if there was anything special about it.

Simply having access to high-quality silk by the bolt was enough to draw in customers. The first of which was the shopkeeper whose dress shop they had halfway cleared out when they first arrived.

"Lady Rae, it’s a pleasure to see you again. Though I must say, it’s a relief to know that you weren’t planning to open a fashion shop here at the gates." The woman greeted her when she saw the transformed spider lurking at the back of the room.

"I thought that it might be better to offer the raw Silk instead. Take a look, and tell me what you think. You will find no lumps or imperfections in my silk. If you wish a different grade, I have inventory all the way from Commander to Overlord Rank, and can make custom colours with a small delay." Rae agreed. Explore stories on freewebnovel

The dressmaker admired the corner of a roll of golden silk, trying to determine how it had gotten so bright golden. She had never seen a dye like that before. It was actually a result of Rae using her [Camouflage] skills on the silk as she produced it, which gave the silk a metallic lustre that was nearly impossible to replicate with a natural dye.

"It looks like the silk is made of liquid gold. That is beautiful. How long is the bolt?" She asked.

"I made each bolt ten metres. I wasn’t sure what was the standard here, but that should make a dress for most species." Rae explained.

"That sounds right. How is this to work with?" The dressmaker asked.

"Not the easiest for weak people. It is a Commander Rank silk, so it is quite resistant to penetration, but there are runic needles that will let you do it without a skill. You might need one, and some enchanted scissors to cut the pattern as well."

The dressmaker nodded. "I have some. Occasionally, I do use Monster fur as trim, and it needs them. I will take the bolt of liquid gold, the black and the..."

She paused and then went to inspect another bolt.

"That’s not pale grey, it’s gossamer white over a black roll core. So thin, it’s almost like air. I will take that bolt as well."

Rae nodded, and Davis silently wrote the price on a piece of paper.

For expensive purchases when there were others in the shop, it was polite not to speak the cost out loud. That way, nobody knew for certain who got a discount or how much of one.
