Five hours later.

Sam is standing with the three products in front of him.

The Buckhorn Parrying Stick is actually the most complicated for him to do. The remaining two are considerably easy.

The flanged mace is the easiest.

Even though the materials are not something that he has worked on before, Sam caught up easily and his working speed only grew faster and faster as he moved.

He forged the five products in Five hours. The armor is not that complicated as it is time taking.

Five hours is actually very little time for these things, but he did it.

The test was supposed to be a test for a full day.

Sam finished it in such a short time and the examiners are stunned beyond belief. They repeatedly tested the products and were amazed by the precision Sam showed. Many of the techniques Sam used are new to them.

The three artisan examiners who are in charge of the quality check wanted to discuss these things with him, but looking at the cold look on his face, it is apparent that he is not very keen on that.

The City lord tried every way to create trouble for Sam, but it didn't work.

Before he left, he stopped by the city lord and whispered.

"Be careful my dear city lord. I heard that an arsonist is sneaking into the city without being spotted by anyone. And he is burning without even his targets knowing. I heard that the previous person is a bit closer to you. We don't want anything happening to you, do we?"

The city lord shivered in the spot and looked at Sam in horror.

He doesn't know why, but Sam's tone almost made him pass out. Sam looked at the terrified expression, a clear sign of mental weakness. A great puppet indeed. He shook his head and left without doing anything.

He doesn't have any reason for killing this city lord and there are no benefits for doing that. He just wanted to get off his back. Since he is a weak-willed person, then it is easy to induce fear into his head.

Fear can make a person do stupid things and at the same time can make someone stop doing anything if it is induced at a certain level.

Sam went back to the camp and waited for his license to be processed.

And it wasn't delayed by too much, the license came in two days. On that day Raunak gave the license to Sam and said.

"Someone from the professor contacted me and asked me to hold the license away from you for a while before the contract is signed. I didn't answer him anything and just brought the license."

"Just stay silent for now. I will deal with this."

With that, Sam waited for Braman or any other person that would come to meet him for the contract and it was not too late before they came.

They even came on that same day.

But the people that came are the two military people that came from that military unit. The human and the elf.

"I thought you would come. Didn't expect this early."

"These deals are better done earlier than later. Shall we sign the contract?"

"Of course, we can. But the license is not here yet."

"It already left the administration, you will get it right after you sign the deal."

"What do you mean? That is not the part of the deal." Sam asked in a surprising tone.

"Now that is the deal." The human seemed to be a bit smug as if they pulled one over him

"Really?" Sam's voice lost the surprise and that smirk that makes anyone want to punch that face came back as he took out the license from his storage.

The license is a metallic card with all the details of Sam on it.

When the two soldiers saw the license their smug looks are gone and the color drained away from his face.

"How did you get it?"

"It doesn't matter how I got it. Since you wanted to pull a stunt over me like that, I have another clause to add."

"What is that?"

"Leave Raunak alone."

Both of them frowned. This is clearly something that surprised them.

"I don't know who that so-called professor is and in fact, I am not too keen on knowing who he is, but I am pretty sure he is a part or might even be a leader of something big and something that shouldn't be known to the world.

I don't really care though. But you better leave Raunak alone. Every favor that he owed you is not going to be repaid because of your stupid decision of holding that license back.

Go back and talk with your professor. I don't know what method he will use to prove me, but any person from your team shouldn't contact him again and you have to prove it to me."

"Do you really think that you can do whatever you want just because you are given some importance? Remember your place before making any demands."

The human said in a cold voice as his aura raged around.

Sam looked at him and said with a cold smile.

"It seems to me like you are the one that is not self-aware. Do you really think you can force me to sign the deal? Then that means you haven't done your homework.

No problem, all you have to do is make a move and you will understand why you shouldn't have done that.

Go on."

The one who made a move is not the human though. The Elf who is standing behind the human-made his move. He took out a saber and there is a lot of vitality-filled wood elemental energy surrounding the saber.

He slashed towards Sam from the other side of the table.

The table was slashed into two and the ray of the saber directly came at Sam.

But right before it made contact, Sam extended his leg and kicked it through the falling table as a large wind explosion happened to cause the elf to take full force and got blown away which caused the saber to go away.

Sam stood up from his chair and took out of his bow as he shot one arrow after another and when the dust settled, the elf is pinned to the tree nearby with arrows stabbed through his robe and nailed into the large tree behind him.

Sam nocked another arrow and aimed at the elf before saying to the human.

"Want to continue? I might stop holding back."

The human just shook his head and let the elf down before they went back to the city. They sent a courier to Planet 1 and waited for a reply.

The next day they got the reply along with a special contract.

When they saw the contract in the form of a blood-red scroll they couldn't help but gulp in nervousness.

The scroll is a special one. It is made from a tree that is forbidden to grow in open, but some elves do it anyway.

The tree is grown with the blood and souls of creatures. Any creature will suffice but the tree will absorb the energy from the souls and the blood that was given to it and the wood will be a bit different with some form of moderate sentience.

The wood is used to make this special thick paper scroll, which is used to perform some ritual contracts. A person would have to place his blood and a pit of spiritual imprint and a very small part of the soul into it.

If they break the contract, all the souls that are absorbed by the tree that would be trapped in this scroll along with all the blood energy will haunt the person that broke the contract.

Even though people of certain power can escape that contract, from what they knew there is not a single person including the Elders that can escape the effect.

They didn't expect that the professor would use that contract to make Sam believe in them.

They gave the scroll to Sam and when Sam asked what it was, they got a little pissed off and said.

"Raunak will know it, ask him. But you better sign the deal now."

"Sure, take the contract out."

Sam looked through the contract and made sure that everything is on line and signed the deal.

"Don't try anything funny alright. I am losing my patience in this land and I might do something crazy and trust me you don't want to experience that."

With that, Sam finished the deal and went to meet Raunak.

He doesn't know anything about this scroll. He has to find out if it really is trustworthy. He is sure that the professor wouldn't want a single Raunak and lose the weapons and deals Sam could bring to the table, but he figured that it would be better if he knew the details.

After Raunak saw the scroll and the words that are written in it, he was extremely shocked and slowly explained everything.

When Sam heard that, he couldn't help but say.

"It would be great if I could get a couple of those saplings, these things come in handy."
