Master Of None



When Walker made a move to enter Lisa's seamstress shop, he found himself blacked by three clean cut and tall guards. "The seamstresses are all preoccupied by their clients. Please step back and consult the secretary team for an appointment." They were all standing tall and trying to act intimidating. 

This was fair since they definitely had not met Walker and were newer to the position. However, they saw Walker's smirk before he waved to one of the first staff that had been hired. She recognized him immediately and made a move to come over herself. 

"You three, that's Walker. He's always allowed to come no matter the clients. He is the older brother of our head young miss here." The woman spoke quickly and acted like she was reprimanding children. To be fair though, she was higher ranked than them as an older employee of the shop. Not to mention the fact that she was growing very quickly here. 

"Don't worry, they were just doing their jobs. I like that my sister is in good care. I Wanted to stop by and see what new things she might have come up with. Plus, I have some new fabrics made of different grasses, plant fibers, and even some monster materials that I wanted to leave for her. I can't imagine what else she will be able to do with them." 

Everyone that came here was always stunned that such a young girl was so adult. She had taken to being a seamstress much more than anyone else in history. Yet, at her young age, she had managed to take little guidance and learn at a rapid pace how to run a business. Walker was multiple years wonder and yet, his sister was still catching up to him in maturity. 

"I thought I would see what new things she would come up with. From the looks of things outside here, you have a booming clientele." Walker knew well that complimenting the staff would be a good move. It was only right though. Their hard work was clearly helping things run much more smoothly and taking a lot off his sister's shoulders. 

"We do work hard. I appreciate your compliments. Our young miss is in the back working on a private design. She has been making more unique things that the other seamstresses will assist in refining then for sale. She also only sees certain clients that would like to purchase unique designs. However,. She does not meet with many. She is the imagination." 

This statement was not something that came down to a negative view. Instead, it was positive. It spoke of many benefits that came from Lisa's hard work and imagination. The other seamstresses could learn and work to add quality and focus on their clients. Lisa just worked on the new forms and models that she could create. That was clearly where her genius flourished. 

Walking inside was another scene of bustling movement. The seamstresses and even some apprentices under them were hurriedly moving from project to project. They were not the average seamstress shop where someone would be repairing items. Instead, they were making outfits that matched certain posed designs. Measuring their clients. And even focusing on their own learning. 

This atmosphere was better than many places because of the clear freedom to take clients and adhere to the current styles produced. But even more so, because they were all more or less using some form of rune sewing. 

The sewing of rune sin to the fabrics was why these clothes designs were so highly sought after. Lisa had managed to learn it well from the leven clothing but had taken it higher with the fact that she had seen the origin runes and clearly hired some rune researchers to work with her. 

This had given every single seamstress a better ability. But when Walker saw the plaque listing the employees and their skills, he was stunned. Right next to his sister's and three other seamstresses name was the system, rune seamstress! His sister had completed quests and become a natural rune seamstress! Something that was well out of his expectations. 

The seamstresses all recognized Walker along with many who were clearly new and learning. But even a few clients that were here or there watching or watching for their outfits understood who Walker was. It wasn't easy being him now that his face had been plastered on posters or even made a statue or two. It was just part of the role he chose to play in helping to build Genesis. 

Once Walker looked inside the private workspace of his sister, he found a mess. A literal mess of fabrics with parts cut out. Different designs half put together. Even some longer spools of thread lined up to be used at the single pull. The needles all had places on special sections of the wall. The design definitely a costume made holder just for efficiency in grabbing the ideal needle needed at a moment's notice. 

"And can the girl buried in her own work take a moment to tell me why she is buried? What she is working on? And what she plans to do now that her brother has invaded her workshop?" Walker's casual tone made Lisa slowly look up before she snapped back to reality. She hadn't even noticed that she had become buried within her work for the hundredth time. She was just like Walker in that respect. Siblings to the core. 

"Brother!" Lisa jumped up and hugged Walker while some fabrics fell to the side. It was clear that she was very happy with his surprise visit after his meeting in the Genesis building to decide who and what would be the plans for the future battle against the corrupt manas. 

"I was just finishing one of the new designs that I learned to make. I have a bunch of things that have started to come together. You know that, right? Compound rune fabrics are the focus on the next design line I want to release." 

Lisa showed off a stretch of fabric with more runes on it than he had seen. But the runes were mixing perfectly. The flow even had an appealing pattern that would make it the most unique fabric he had yet to see. 

'Compound rune fabric

Focusing on all elemental manas, the compound rune fabric requires jeweled spider silk to be made and uphold its strength. This is due to the higher absorption of all elemental manas within the fabric. The runes draw in natural manas that hang in the air. This brings a natural boost to the body of those wearing it. Increased healing speed and ana replenishment. If worn at night while sleeping, the sleep is better, more restful, and the body can heal slightly faster.'

Walker read the all around appraisal right out loud. He watched as Lisa's grin grew. She knew she had succeeded but she was glad to see what else the results brought. She had yet to make an actual outfit from this, but she had swatches of fabric experiments. 

"I brought you some materials from the Sigil continent that I didn't give you the other day. We had dinner to go to and a few other family things. I thought you would want me to bring them by today though." Clearly, Walker said the right things since Lisa only got happier with what he was slowly taking out of his high spatial storage space. 

"I bet you will have more things to show me when you explain what a natural rune seamstress is." Walker knew what it was in an idea, but he was going to humor his little sister. She had the fidgeting to show that she was more than excited to tell him. 

"I can use elemental runes better than anyone else when making clothes! I can even sew multiple in to a dress and make a natural fabric. They are better for natural mana absorption and also for battle. I can even make a dress that make natural mana for you. Well, clothes or anything! I just need more materials for you." Lisa's pride was clearly on display as she bragged about her new potentials. Everything she had been working for while Walker was away was clearly on display here. 

"You expanded things too. I can see you being the only one making clothes in a few months. No one will be able to compete." Walker knew that those in charge of expenses would definitely expect the shop to expand again. 

"Well, I will have new shops with rune seamstresses all around the place. Three more will be built soon for the designs I made. They are working with me now. We might even have a school soon." it all sounded perfectly positive. A great future for it. 

"Well, why don't you take a break before all that? we can go visit mother and see if we can eat with her." Lisa just nodded enthusiastically.
