THE REBIRTH OF A GENIUS. CREATOR/DESTROYER
Chapter 36. Black Meteorite Sand



After Sam finished with the book in the library, he walked back to his residence, but he was blocked by someone at the entrance. He looked at the person who was blocking him and he did not recognize him at all. So, he ignored her and went around her.


"Stop there." The person who was blocking him shouted, but Sam did not even care at all.


"If you don't stop now, you'll regret it." He shouted again and again getting no response other than the sound of a door slam. He just gritted his teeth and turned around cursing softly.


Sam entered the Divine dimension and is now in the library. He walked past the shelf and finally stopped in front of the shelf. The shelf was made up of several divine wills. This is an encyclopedia of ores. The shelf consists of a divine will that has information about the ores available in the world. This info includes the properties of the material, the rating of the material and as well as the availability of the material etc. Sam absorbed the divine will and then sat down cross-legged to digest the information.


Meanwhile at the residence of the third year student, the man who blocked Sam earlier stood in front of the other third year students obediently and said.


"He's a boss who's too cocky. He didn't even bother to listen to what I said and just treated me as if I had nothing. He's too arrogant."


“So, what if he is proficient in various professions, does he not know who my father is? My father is a rank 2 pill master. Did he really think that Artisan and Pill masters were the same? Pill masters had contact with all kinds of powerhouses, healers, and anything drug-related. I don't think he knows what's good for him. Keep an eye on him and let me know when he gets out of the house. I'll teach him his own manners. " The man snorted as he spoke in an irritating manner. The minion who reported the news only kept silent as he slowly walked out. Then he spoke in his heart. "This new student will have a hard time. Last time this Albert jerk used his father status and almost ruined a girl's life and now he's trying to push a genius freshman."


Right now the man named Albert who is bragging about his father as a pill expert is thinking about how to make use of Sam. He didn't know what his father really thought if he knew this.


Just like in the Artisan tower, the Pharmaceutical tower also had many professions and they were Pill masters, Healers, and Potion masters. Because, these people usually dealt with medicines and the health of cultivators, they actually had a higher standing in society than any other profession. But this time Albert might foolishly estimate this value too high.


The next morning. Sam finally came out of the Dimension. He spent nearly eight hours in the outside world in the tower and that meant he spent more than three days inside the tower just to digest information. He had a slight headache as he walked out into the living room. Back then someone came to his house and it was none other than the Headmaster of the Academy. Sam looked at her a little surprised as he did not expect she would come this fast.


"Honored Head of School, don't you know what privacy is?"


"The door's not locked." The Headmaster replied expressionlessly and made himself comfortable as he sat on the chair. Sam walked over and sat down on the chair opposite him and said.


"By the way, what do you want so you come in early in the morning?" ask Sam directly.


"Do you have any manners? Couldn't you respect the principal of the academy more?" The principal was unhappy with Sam's behavior. Sam raised an eyebrow and said in an indifferent tone.


"I'm not here to learn. I'm just here as part of a business deal. You didn't even uphold your agreement even after a day had passed since the last time I visited the academy and you had the guts to ask for your manners."I used your status. Where is my spirit stone? We can talk about manners after you make the payment." Sam did not leave any face and immediately asked for payment.


The headmaster felt his eyebrows twitch. "You know, every student would be honored that I came to their place and you spoke like this. Are we going to have the right conversation?"


"We can talk after you pay." Sam didn't flinch. He really did not want to talk to this man. Because, he knew that the Headmaster himself had leaked the info of himself entering the academy. Why is he so sure? Because, the Headmaster was the strongest of all the people in the city and who dared to spy on him to eavesdrop on the conversation let alone divulge it to the public.


Then why did he do it? Unostentatious. He just wants to make the whole town known as soon as Sam agrees to make sure that he doesn't retract his words. The second rank artist would go back on his words. How embarrassing is that?


"I'll pay you after this. First, I want to talk to you about something. In two weeks, we will go to the Count city which is the 'Falcon Cliff City'. I want you to prepare everything and get ready to go. . You may not return for a while if you're elected."


"OKAY. What else?"


"Well, I want to make a business deal with you"


"Oh, what do you want?" Sam became wary as soon as he heard the word business. The headmaster really wanted to hit his head once he saw Sam's attitude change.


"I want the rank 2 weapon you made." Sam raised his eyebrows as he looked at her.


"Are you sure?"


"What do you mean 'are you sure'? the principal is getting upset.


"My weapons are expensive."


"How much? I need a spear made of Fire steel. I'll provide the material and you just need to make it."


"Spear with fire steel?" Sam started thinking and finally he gave an answer. "10,000 spirit stones." The headmaster was immediately angry.


"Do you really think I'm stupid. How could a spear be worth that much as it was at rank 2? And I gave you the material."


"That's my treasure. If not, you don't have to agree."


"Hmphs. I'd be a fool if I agreed." He then stood up and turned towards the door and started walking. Just before he was about to open the door, he turned around and said.


"In two weeks' time, the team will move to the 'Falcon Cliff City'. There will be ten members in the team and you are already one of them. The rest of the team will be decided in a few days. Get ready before the time's up." He finished and opened the door, just before he was about to step out.


"Wait." Sam called out to him from behind. The headmaster smiled in satisfaction as he turned around. He really wanted to make things difficult for Sam now that he had something to ask. But as soon as he heard the next words, he immediately wanted to punch himself.


Sam counted the spirit stones with a satisfied expression. Then he turned towards the other room and shouted. You can get out now. Then Philip and Marvin came out.


They both had embarrassed expressions. They both came early in the morning and saw Sam was not in his bedroom. So, they went to another room to look for him and then they heard someone come in. When they saw it was the headmaster, they thought something serious had happened and were frightened, then they saw Sam suddenly come out of the room and felt shocked. They don't know how Sam came from that room. After a few thoughts, they left those thoughts in their minds and waited for the headmaster to leave to prank Sam. They really wanted to see this serious man become confused once. But they didn't think Sam would feel it. So, they just came out and smiled awkwardly.


Then it was as if he remembered something Philip said. "Sam, so you came to the school because, the Headmaster hired you to participate in the Count city." He was quite surprised when he heard this. After all, most people would die for the chance and here Sam extorted money to take the chance. He really wanted to know how brave Sam was.


"Leave it. How long will it take for your family's next monthly auction?" Sam ignored Philip's question and directly asked him.


"Well, in one week. Why are you asking?" Philip replied.


"I have something to sell this time." Sam answered while starting to think. At that moment someone else entered the house. This time Jack and Shawn are not with him this time. Sam gestured him to sit down and turned towards Philip and Marvin.


"You better be careful. I heard Albert was watching you. His father was a pill expert and he was used to bully juniors. He might try to gain some advantage from you because you are an Artisan. So, you may want to stay away from it. After all, he was the son of the head of the Pharmaceutical tower. Although his father should give you face because you are of the same rank, this Albert is stupid and still in the delusion that his father is higher status than you. He's at the beginner stage. That's why I warned you. We'll go then." Philip said as he stood up and started walking with Marvin.


When Sam heard about Albert's man, he was really not afraid. After all, although a rank 2 Artisan had to give face to a Pill master and a rank 2 Healer, Sam did not have to do that. Because his age is a key factor. How old is Sam? 15. How old is Artisan 2? So, that respect was not for Sam's rank, but for his potential. Not only that. What is Sam's cultivation level? Acolyte level 3 At this stage a normal cultivator would only have the level of an apprentice in any profession because, they did not dare to try the exam until they were at the late stage. That was because at the late stage, his chances were high to pass because his energy level was high. Sam quickly regained his senses from his daydream and looked at Jack sitting there and looked at him.


"So, what kind of sword do you want?"


"First look at the material." Jack took out a large leather bag and put it in front of Sam. Then he opened the bag and showed me the material.


Sam was quite surprised to see the material as he looked at the large amount of metallic black sand and touched it to inspect it. "Black meteorite sand" Sam said unknowingly. Jack nodded with a smile.


"It's indeed a black meteorite sand." Sam was shocked after hearing the confirmation. Black meteorite sand was one of the best materials available to make weapons and it was not the best part. The best part is that sand has no particular rank. Not only that, even the sand meteorite had no particular rank. Because the rank of matter increases with time. The meteorite sand started at rank 1 and increased in rank as it absorbed spiritual energy.


Even after being forged into a weapon or articraft, it would increase along with the cultivator who formed a bond with it. If no cultivator were to specifically supply spiritual energy, the process would be slow but that did not stop him from developing and even this was not the main part, he said, the main advantage is that anything made of meteorite sand will nurture the spirit afterwards.it is nurtured to a certain degree. A weapon or artifact with a spirit was stronger than any weapon of the same rank. That is the reason why sand meteorites are highly sought after especially when at their lowest stage. Because if they were at the lowest level, cultivators could purify them with their own spiritual energy until they reached a spirit that would make bonding between weapons easier.


If anyone knew that Jack showed Sam the sand of the Black meteorite, then there would be chaos throughout Starwood city. His status as a pseudo rank 2 Artisan genius, as the youngest inscription master would not help at all. The Warriors and Artisans will do everything they can to obtain this material.


Now, this material is in the hands of an Acolyte. He felt creepy just thinking about the consequences. He looked at Jack and said nothing. After a moment of silence, Jack spoke up.


"I know it's going to be a dangerous task, but I think only you're fit to do this. I can't trust anyone to keep the secrets of precious materials."


"Do you believe me?" Sam asked with a surprised expression. After all, they only knew each other for two days and only spent less than 12 hours together. It is hard to trust a human being in this short amount of time. At least, Sam was sure he could not trust someone in such a short period of time.


Jack shook his head and said. "I don't trust you, but I trust my intuition. My intuition tells me that you are a man who can be trusted to make a deal." Sam just nodded and did not speak at all. Then after a moment of silence he spoke. "what's the deal?"


"You made the best sword you can make with your current abilities and I'll pay you."


"then what's the payment?"


"The Black meteorite sand is yours." As soon as he finished speaking, the air around seemed to be silent. The words repeated in Sam's head. The pay was not what he expected.


"Are you sure?" Sam asks to make sure he doesn't hear wrong. Jack nodded and said.


"I'm of no use to sand now. It will only be a burden to me. The price is not only for processing but also for secrets you have to keep from involving us."


Sam pondered for a moment after Jack finished his words. He did not think about whether to accept the deal or not. He pondered what to do with the remaining sand. He smiled and stood up. He looked at Jack and said.


"I'm gonna do it. But this is not the right place. We have to do it in the most secret places. Let's go." Sam said while being energetic. He could actually do a lot of things with the sand of the meteorite. So, he was enthusiastic enough to work on it as soon as possible.


Soon the two came to the Artisan tower. Sam meets the head of the tower.


"Is my equipment ready?" Sam asked as soon as they met. The smile of the tower head froze for a moment. He only wanted to make small talk with Sam but the other party didn't even give him a chance. He felt helpless and answered.


"They were ready a long time ago. Actually, I want to send it myself tomorrow, but when I hear that the Headmaster is coming to your house, I think it's inappropriate."


"Alright then, send everything now. Put it all up later in the afternoon. I have something urgent." Sam said and without waiting for anything in return Jack left behind after he bought a piece of high-quality Starwood wood.


Both Sam and Jack arrived at the mansion and after a while later, staff from the Artisan tower came and Sam showed them an empty room on the ground floor and instructed how to install it in the room and return to sit with Jack.


He took out Starwood and took out a dagger. He began to carve as Jack watched him with interest.
