Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

The shadow mice are doing their job extremely well. The first group of half-elves is easily noticed by Sam due to their movement. But there is a bigger threat hiding far away from the place that is watching him with a piece of special equipment.

He is too far away from Sam's spiritual sense, energy vision, and even with the zooming ability combined with his eye technique is not enough to get a clear image of that person. They are deep inside the forest kilometers away.

In fact, they were only noticed because shadow mice made a long trip around the forest on Sam's order so that he could use the whole forest as his operating base and set traps to defend himself.

They noticed this person who is completely covered in black clothes, almost similar to Sam's dark-cloaked attire and from the descriptions of the mice that saw him, he is using a device similar to a small telescope to look at Sam.

Sam only learned this now, but he didn't make any move against him. He wants to see what his goal is.

That is why he is creating such a gruesome and painful picture to his eyes so that he could see what Sam could do.

Anyway, it would be hard to observe all the minor details with just the naked vision. He wouldn't even be able to observe the traps from that far. Unless he is as resourceful as Sam.

Sam wanted to see to what extent that guy would stay there and how long he is willing to observe him and also send a small message to the people that sent this guy here.

After his goal was achieved, he went back to rest in his tent.

The next morning. The City guards once again came and asked about the mercenary team that moved to the forest last night after taking an assignment from the city guards and didn't report back and they are only met with a bunch of burned trees and Sam's lie of not seeing them.

The dead bodies disappeared after all.

And with Sam's necromancy, he found out that these mercenaries are only after him for the money. No one sent them here. So, this is just a minor case for him.

But Sam's plans slowed down a bit because of them. According to his own plan, he has to meet with that senior official who is in charge of the city guard who ordered the subordinate to send those ten criminals to Sam.

Then he would burn that house and that guy too and get his memories along with that. That was his original plan. But now because of this intervention, he has to change his plan.

The next day, Sam just went on with his relaxation. He ate fish, went hunting, cooked, and ate happily.

And at night, since no one came, he left one of the chess pieces in the tent and left to the city.

He didn't use the same approach as the day before though. The target is peacefully cultivating in the middle of the house and since he is a transcendent Sam decided to be a bit more cautious and first activated the soul formation to attack his mentality.

His caution was correct because, as soon as the formation disc appeared in the house, this guy became alerted and came moved towards the formation disc. But the activating didn't take as much time and the souls attacked his soul.

"ARRRRRRGGGGGGGGhhhh…."

The target held his head and screamed on top of his lungs.

Sam used this chance to throw the bottle at him which actually missed, but he is not disappointed. The other party has high senses and reaction time, but that doesn't mean they are invincible. The formation just started.

Sam threw a barrage of the bottles and soon the target and the rest of the house is soaked in the Biofuel.

Today Sam is not just looking to kill this guy, he also wants to test something, because this guy is a water element user along with the wood element.

He would like to see how the Bio-Fuel would work on him.

Sam set the house on fire and looked at the guy as he rolled on the ground. He is using the water element to put the fire off. Even though it is indeed resisting the fire a lot, it is not completely extinguishing it.

He mostly succeeded in stopping the spread of the flames than stopping the flame itself. The biofuel is continuously burning until it is completely burned out until the energy in it is completely consumed.

Sam just stood there and observed as he threw one bottle after bottle at the struggling person and soon that guy gave up. The bio-fuel is just too much. The quantity itself overwhelmed him.

But before he could completely burn out, the people are already surrounding the house that is burning.

Sam completed the necromancy and left the house.

After he returned, he replaced his chess piece and started contemplating the effects of the biofuel.

The main drawback is that the level of the sugar cane. The fuel can certainly destroy someone who is within a transcendent realm. But from the intensity, Sam could guess that it wouldn't do much to a consummate realm cultivator.

It can at most hurt them a little bit, but killing would be a problem.

It is just like Methane, but methane can be created by different beasts of different levels. All they have to be is pure fire elemental beasts.

But the sugar cane is different, it is the genetic property of the cane to be at that level, it doesn't have any natural upgrade directly to the next level where the biofuel made of that could seriously hurt the elves at Consummate realm.

After noting down the observations, he went through the obtained memories.

This time the memories revealed a familiar person. Sam saw this person many times and met with him.

He is none other than Ragad. He is the one that gave out the order. He placed a hit on Sam.

Sam is really a bit surprised.

The first thought that came to his mind is the beating Sam gave to him. But he dismissed that idea.

Because the five percent 'discount' is actually to make him stop having those thoughts. At least a normal person who is driven by the benefits will think twice before doing anything to Sam. It is a bribe so that they can put that behind them and continue with their business.

That is what it meant and he is sure that Ragad got the message. From what he knew through Raunak there is no report to the faction 1 members whatsoever that there is a five percent discount. It is a complete secret between Sam and Ragad.

There must be some reason behind this.

While he is thinking, Raunak came running to the camp and asked.

"What have you done? Why are you continuously killing people?"

"Why are you asking now? You didn't ask me before when that small-time official was burned down."

"Because I knew my place to not ask too much and I am sure that he is the guy that sent the criminals. But the person you killed tonight is the second in command of the city. In fact, if there is a crisis, he would be the real person in charge.

Do you even know the depth of these actions?

Do you know how big of an issue it is?"

Sam cut a coconut open and gave him to drink the water.

"Just because he is a guy with status, do you think I would just let them be? You are sorely mistaken. No one would be safe once they try something on me or my friends. It is just a natural consequence.

Just like how natural it is for fire to be hot and the ice to be cold."

"Those are natural laws, are you really comparing your revenge to natural law? Law is never a choice. But your revenge is an action made by your own choice."

"My choice is the Law."

"You are being too arrogant Sam. Not only will you implicate yourself, but you will also implicate your friends and me too."

Sam smiled at this and said.

"From how adamant you are sounding it seems like there is more to it than just your concern of your own implication.

You didn't react this strongly when I almost killed the Envoy from faction 2. You were pretty okay with that. Why are you so worried now? Are you hiding something from me?"

Raunak was stumped.

"I… I…"

He wanted to say something, but no words came out. Sam just shook his head and went back to enjoying his coconut.

Raunak took a breath to calm himself down and spoke.

"I suspect that someone I know might be involved in this."

"Someone you know means, the father of your lover?"

Raunak didn't say anything and just stayed silent.

"I am sorry if that is supposed to stop me from paying back, it wouldn't. The clash is inevitable if he is really involved. I can guarantee that your love wouldn't be involved in this any manner. Unless and of course, she comes and messes with me, I wouldn't do anything to her.

And that is because of our partnership.

But that immunity wouldn't apply to her father. If he is really involved you better think of a way to find out soon and make up your mind."
