Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer-Novel

Giyon, Grivon and Sam along with the person from the enforcement squad are all sitting together in one of the rooms in Giyon’s residence.

The person from the expedition team was tied up to a chair and he is still feeling a bit lost and afraid. They fed the medicine to him and the enforcement squad member started guiding him through the process.

Sam couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised and familiar at the same time. The narcotic test is so familiar to him because it was part of his trained. There are many things that the modern world has and this world doesn’t, but now there is this test with almost same steps as the one in the modern world, so he was caught off guard a bit.

As the test went on, the enforcement squad member started asking questions.

Some of them are the obvious questions. Like name, parents’ name, occupation and such.

"Are you a spy of Mari Clan?"

"No, I would rather than become a spy of Mari Clan."

"Have you betrayed Gaja Clan?"

"No."

"Do you have thoughts of betraying Gaja Clan?"

"No. Never."

"What did you do at dawn two weeks ago?"

"I sneaked out of my lover’s house."

"Why did you sneak out?"

"Because her father doesn’t like me as my position is too low in his opinion."

"What did you do in the afternoon one week ago?"

"I was having a meal with my lover in the wild. I hunted a Blood Hare which she cooked. It was a delightful afternoon."

The questions went on and on as they asked about everything regarding his schedule. He answered everyone of the general stuff correctly, until one question.

"What were you doing at midnight three days ago?"

"Midnight.. Midnight.... Midnight... I don’t know."

"You don’t know? What were you doing two hours before midnight?"

"I was at my lover’s house."

"What were you doing an hour before midnight?"

"I was leaving my lover’s house and was going back to my residence."

"What were doing at the midnight?"

"I... I... I can’t remember. I don’t know."

The group was a bit shocked to say the least.

Because this guy really doesn’t have any recollection of what exactly happened. But when they looked at the schedule they got, he was actually seen going into the space gate area.

"What were you doing half an hour after midnight."

"I.. I don’t know."

"What were doing thirty one minutes after midnight."

"I was in my residence."

The enforcement squad member took a step back and whispered to the trio.

"I am pretty sure that he is completely unaware of what he did in that time period.

Giyon pointed out a few points in the activity log of this guy and said.

"Ask him about these."

The squad member did as he was told and all the answers were useless. The other party either doesn’t know or cannot remember.

The trio immediately came to a conclusion, they are pretty sure that he was being used all this while. He must have been manipulated by all of this.

As the questioning continued, the expedition team member suddenly answered one question differently.

"What were you doing at sunset three days ago?"

"I... I... I saw a snake. I saw a snake." He answered drowsily with slurred speech and as soon as the word snake was mentioned, Giyon’s expression changed.

"What did you do after seeing the snake?"

"I watched the snake for a long time and fell a sleep on a meadow."

Giyon gritted her teeth and accidentally destroyed the arm rest of the chair with her grip.

"This is definitely that bitch’s doing."

Sam and Grivon were stunned. This is the biggest emotion that Giyon has shown in a long time.

Even before they could ask her what is wrong, Giyon stood up and said.

"I think I know who did this. You can end it here."

But Grivon hurriedly objected the ending, Giyon just shrugged and left the room. Sam doesn’t know what to do and followed Giyon. Since she said she has a lead, it is better to work out the rest of the process with her.

As they walked out, Grivon started asking the guy from the expedition team about his battle achievements. Apparently, his battle record is extremely decorated, so he wanted to see if they are really true and when the questions continued, it turned out that this guy is not only good at what he does, his achievements are also somewhat robbed.

This made Grivon ecstatic.

"Wake him up."

After the guy woke up, Grivon looked at both the enforcement and expedition team members and said.

"Would you guys willing to join my team?"

Both of them were surprised and ecstatic at the same time.

Joining the team of a possible successor candidate is not that easy. After all, most of the time they develop their own forces from the scratch and only recruit people from outside and the external branch because they cannot be sure of what kind of spy they might bring in if they recruited from within. New chaptᴇrs are published on NovelEnglish.net

But now Grivon extended the olive branch, they could only take the bait and hold on to it.

Meanwhile, Giyon is extremely frustrated outside and Sam observed her carefully.

She kept on muttering something incomprehensible. After a few minutes, she took a deep breath and calmed down.

"I can guess who did it. I know of a person who plays around with the snakes and she is extremely skilled in hypnosis and can make people do anything she wants them to do. If my guess is right, she would still be near."

"What about her formation and spatial elemental expertise?"

"Non-existent, but she has a special technique which makes it easier for her to cooperate with someone that knows about these things. It is a bit complicated, I will explain it later. But right now, I need to fish her out as fast as I can. If she has even the tiniest doubt that I am looking for her, she wouldn’t even hesitate to run away."

"But once the people move, it is impossible to hide it."

"Yes, that is what I was thinking. I am trying to think of a way to detect her without causing too much commotion."

As she was thinking, Sam said.

"I think we can use Grivon’s network. That is the first thing we modified after I entered. His network is extremely passive and dormant. No one would be able to suspect anything."

"How did you guys even do that?"

"We placed many of Grivon’s subordinates as menial workers in various places. Particularly, bars and restaurants. Along with that, we managed to poach a few people without revealed Grivon’s face and identity to get the information. They are normal waiters, prostitutes, bartenders, cleaners, door guards, street vendors and so on.

They would be pretty useful.

You just give the description of her and I am sure someone must have seen her before."

"It would be hard for someone to notice her. She wears a cloak all the time."

"Are you sure? I mean there should be at least one place she would have removed her disguise while she is still in the city. Is there anything that she likes more than the rest?"

"Food? She is actually very much interested in eating and tasting various delicacies. She couldn’t control herself and at that time, she definitely removes her veil at least."

"That is good enough. In fact perfect. Just give the details of her facial features and I will take over the rest. If she is really here and she is really tempted by the food as much as you say, I will flush her out in the next two days.

All you have to do is wait and make sure that this whole news doesn’t go out."

"I can manage that."

As they are talking, the enforcement team member and expedition team member left the room and hurriedly ran away from Giyon’s residence.

Grivon came after them with a smile.

"What happened?"

"I just recruited them. They are going back to turn in their resignations."

Giyon and Sam were a bit surprised, but they didn’t bother too much, because some thing that they should bother with came knocking on the door after an hour.

It is Mingiv’s father.

He barged into the residence when Giyon and Grivon are discussing the facial features of Giyon’s suspect to inform their informants.

"Giyon. Send that scoundrel Sam out now. He better tell me, how to treat Malgav now or he would be in for some serious trouble."

Giyon was a bit surprised by this guy daring to come here. She knew for a fact that everyone in the clan wouldn’t cause her any trouble and that includes the Clan’s leader, particularly on this day. But this guy dared to come in and demand her something she wouldn’t do.

"What happened? Did your brain turned to fluid or something? We already told you yesterday, that he is not willing. Now, get out."

"I want to see that Scoundrel right now. I am not leaving without him even if it meant dragging him out myself."

"You better watch your mouth. It is because of this yapping that your elder son will never look the same again.." Grivon said coldly from the side.
