tailor association – President’s Office
A dense, even sticky, skin scent filled the room.
It was like the smell of dozens of pigskins forcibly pressed into a clay pot, continuously simmered with water in a cramped kitchen for tens of days.
Spacy put on an apparatus similar to a posture corrector, tucking in his protruding belly to shorten the distance between himself and Yi Chen.
The eyeballs within the skin headgear were completely bulging, almost touching Yi Chen’s skin surface, meticulously inspecting every part—up, down, left, and right.
Yi Chen was used to it by now;he had even ordered custom clothing at the Nameless Clothing Store before, where Ivan had engaged in similar behavior, making Yi Chen wonder if tailors all had this kind of ‘hobby’.
“How can this be… Who taught you ‘Restriction Removal’? Was it Claude?”
“No, I realized it on my own. A few days before the nightmare game, I learned it temporarily in Yuri’s Prophet House.”
“Realizing it on your own ~ Impossible!
Your Skin Content has just surpassed the 50% mark, so even if you could realize Restriction Removal, it should be very rough.
Yet the skin within your body has achieved an efficiency close to 100%, perfectly acting as the ‘bearing’ of your physical body, integrating your muscles, organs, and various abilities with clear roles.
I can’t find any flaws for now.
If what you said is true and Claude did not teach you, but you realized it on your own, then your talent in Skin Essence potentially surpasses mine and Claude’s, and even the past generations’ First Gentlemen, possibly only matched by the Third Generation’s talent.
“That exaggerated?”
“It’s not that I’m exaggerating, but the effects you’re showing are truly astonishing… No wonder you could exchange a few moves with a monster like Zede in the nightmare game. It turns out you’ve applied the skin’s effectiveness fully to the physical body.”
Spacy continued to scrutinize Yi Chen’s pure physical form of Restriction Removal, attempting to find some imperfections,
His gaze even carried a hint of doubt, suspecting Yi Chen might be using some hidden techniques.
Spacy’s suspicions were entirely correct,
Yi Chen indeed had used a ‘technique’, but it was not something he could conveniently explain,
Yi Chen had not expended much effort on Restriction Removal, simply realizing the method to release it,
As for what details to pay attention to, where to apply effort, Yi Chen had never cared about any of that.
Instead, he left it all to ‘Yellow Skin’, which took charge of adjustments and refinements, even presenting different states of liberation according to the environment and opponent.
This mutated leather, which could cause trouble in the profound Skin Market, merely had to provide some assistance with the clothing for Yi Chen to achieve an almost perfect state.
“Hey, Yellow Skin! Don’t make it too perfect, or you’ll give Mr. Spacy a hard time later.”
As Yi Chen communicated his intentions, Spacy, who was closely examining him, finally wiped away the doubtful look in his pupils.
“I finally found the loophole!
So that’s it, William;you’re using a special brain to jointly fine-tune the skin, disguising it as this perfect, aren’t you?
In that case, the brain’s burden must be tremendous. Over time, the effects of Restriction Removal will rapidly diminish and reveal flaws.”
“Haha, yes~”
“However, to be able to do this much is already very impressive… I don’t have much to teach you. Instead of staying here to learn about using Skin Essence, you should engage in more real combat practice with Zede.
Here’s what, I’ll lend you something.
With your brain’s special attributes and talent, you should be able to learn it quickly. Gradually shift the focus from the brain to the Essence of Skin, trying to achieve this state without the brain’s fine-tuning as much as possible.
If you can really do that, then no one will be able to compete with you in the First Gentleman’s assessment.”
As he spoke, Spacy unzipped his leather jacket,
reaching into the stacked wrinkles on his neck, as if searching for something, as though there was additional space even within the layers of skin.
An ‘aged’ leather-bound book was finally located.
It was described as aged because the cover resembled the wrinkled skin of the elderly… Upon closer observation, there even seemed to be a face imprinted on it, but the eyelids on the face appeared to have been sewn shut, the nostrils were completely deflated, and only the mouth was barely discernible.
The whole emitted an ancient, eerie aura,
and with the book being taken out, the concentration of the meaty smell in the room sharply increased.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
At the same time, a string of yellow text emerged between Yi Chen’s retinas.
≮This guy actually has something from the Skin Market? An ordinary non-lineage human managed to receive direct blessings from the Skin Market, and the smell emanating from this book is intense, not at all a replica. Get it, William!≯
In the face of the information passed by Yellow Skin, Yi Chen acted as if he saw nothing, knew nothing, and asked with a face full of curiosity:
“Mr. Spacy, what is this?”
“The ‘Skin Sack Bible,’ a relic from my lonesome journey to the Old World in search of ‘self-redemption,’ garnered through fortuitous destiny. My current achievements are mostly due to this book.
It includes the way I bring everyone’s clothing into the dream through ‘consciousness skin grafting’ and also the method of nightmare skin grafting.
Although I have learned much, there are things that I have never been able to master, and during the learning process, I even suffered some backlash, causing me to be unable to suppress the wrinkled tissues on my body’s surface.
Since you have a unique talent in the matter of skin and I just happen to owe Zede a big favor, I will lend you this book to read before the selection of the First Gentleman begins.
Do not force yourself to read what you can’t understand, or you might end up like me, or even worse.”
“The Old World! Did you get it from the Skin Market?”
“Yes
Spacy’s expression changed a bit, as if reluctant to talk about that part of his past.
“Then I will accept it Yi Chen was not at all reserved. The value of this book was sure to surpass any he had read before.
When he reached out and touched the cover of the book, feeling the real touch of aged skin,
whoosh!
The aged face on the cover suddenly opened its mouth for a deep breath and then calmed down again.
The strange feeling conveyed to Yi Chen was like holding a living being in his hands. Flipping through the book even gave a vivid sensation of skin stripping, while reading was like browsing the inner essence of another.
Yi Chen’s Madness Brain began to conjecture about the origin of the book,
speculating that the ‘Skin Sack Bible’ might well have been made using an original inhabitant of the Skin Market with ‘Patient’ as the Material Base,
a native life of the Skin Market who had never set foot beyond its bounds and, upon old age and nearing death, willingly offered up his physical body to create the Skin Sack Bible, with the aim of advancing the growth of newcomers.
“Did it just take a deep breath? Not even a hint of struggle;it seems you really have talent… This book is not something just anyone can read.”
“Thank you, senior.”
“If you encounter anything you don’t quite understand, feel free to ask me, but it is best to figure it out on your own.”
“Alright.”
Following Yi Chen’s departure from the office to meet up with Little Grape, who was having clothing tailored,
Spacy sat back in his place, his pupils flickering with various emotions.
“There is indeed some secret related to ‘skin’ harbored within William.
I had my doubts initially, but with him instantly accepting the ‘Skin Sack Bible,’ it is clear that there must be something inside him, possibly even something directly related to the Skin Market.
But that doesn’t matter anymore.
For a talent like him to have secrets is normal, and as long as his character is upright, whatever he conceals doesn’t matter.”
