Gazing at such detailed personal information and reading about the ‘growth potential,’ Yi Chen was filled with an indescribable excitement. “Incredible! This feeling is absolutely amazing!” While he was in a state of self-satisfaction, Shopkeeper Ivan was almost pressed against Yi Chen’s back, gloved hands moving over every inch of his body, carefully checking every crevice and joint, even going over some areas twice. It may seem excessive, but this is actually a very important verification step. If there's more than 1% deviation, the outfit has to be remade. However, after a precise physical inspection, the deviation turned out to be only 0.09%… making it Ivan’s most perfectly completed work in nearly ten years. "Perfect! Truly a masterpiece!" Shopkeeper Ivan was equally excited, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction and pride unique to a tailor. "Ahem… Right! I have a few extras gifts here as well." Regaining his composure, Ivan handed Yi Chen a leather backpack that perfectly fit the curve of his back. "The [Gentleman's Backpack], a unique technology from Zion. Although I’m not fond of the people at the top there, I really admire this invention. This backpack lets you freely switch between a 'suit' and a 'coat'. Go ahead, give it a try." Yi Chen folded his coat and placed it in the backpack. By pressing a raised area on the strap with his finger… a slight sensation of attachment spread throughout his body, and suddenly, the coat was on him, while the suit was neatly folded in the backpack. The switch happened in less than a second. Amazed, Yi Chen exclaimed, "This is incredible!" "If it weren’t, I wouldn’t bother with Zion’s tech… Stand still; let me finish the final touches." Ivan kindly added a black and white houndstooth tie and a pair of dark wood-framed glasses, placing a white pocket square embroidered with the G&D logo in the chest pocket. As he completed the arrangement, he softly remarked: "A suit is the armor of the modern gentleman. Once you wear it, you take on the responsibilities that come with it." "Understood!" Yi Chen stood before the gilded oval mirror, admiring his refined new look, savoring the elegance and dignity the suit bestowed. Ivan, leaning on his cane and standing to the side, looked at Yi Chen in the mirror and continued: "There's one more thing you need to remember. No matter how meticulous the craftsmanship, how flawless the design, or how luxurious the materials, clothing is only a medium that complements your character. True isn't shown through stylish attire or graceful behavior… but through whether you’re better than who you were before. I hope that next time we meet, I'll see a truly renewed you." These words instantly jolted Yi Chen out of his focus on appearances, transforming these words into important information and engraving them deep in his cerebellum. "I’ll remember that." "If you come across high-quality, ancient 'skin' in the future, bring it here, and I can enhance and upgrade it for you." "Thank you, Mr. Ivan." "You should still have one more day before you report to the academy, so stay here with me. I need to ensure that the suit won’t develop any discomfort after prolonged wear. Although it’s rare, we must ensure it doesn’t happen." "Alright." ........................................................................ Read extra chapters on >>> /SpiritStonetranslation
