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

When they are halfway through, Sam finally stopped the journey.

He made all of them gather around him as he tinkered with the token in his hand while sitting on a rock.

They are around half an hour away from the city if there are no beasts to obstruct them. The next city is another half an hour away. They are perfectly in the middle.

The Blue Cloaks didn’t understand why Sam made them gather here, but they didn’t have to wait too long to know why.

"As I said, I suspected there are moles in Grivon’s subordinates, but I lied a bit about it. The moles are not in the other batch of subordinates. They are between you guys."

The blue cloaks expressed shock and some of them became extremely angry.

"Sir, Sam. You better speak carefully. It is not okay to accuse us like this." One of them openly said out loud.

Sam looked at with a calm smile and did something with the token in his hand and suddenly audio played out with a few familiar tones.

"I couldn’t get to his communication token. I cannot contact him now. But I don’t know what he is doing at the next city."

"Maybe Young master got the wrong information."

"It is possible. But if there is even a small possibility that the information is correct, we will be in trouble. He is the last link between the incident and us. If we got rid of him when we still can, we would have been completely alright.

Now look at us, we need to stay every minute vigilantly."

"Don’t worry about it. The worst thing we could do is show that we are tense. Until now there is no suspicion towards us and we better let it stay that way."

"But what if that guy is indeed in the next city, we would be forced to capture him. And this bastard wouldn’t let us off easily if anything goes wrong."

"Accidents happen. We just have to make sure that we are the ones that get to him first. There we can kill him and make him disappear in the guise of an accident.

We would escape Scott free. It is not like he would dare to kill us and extract our memories."

As the audio played, the face of everyone changed. There are ten blue cloaks at the moment and out of them, seven of them are wearing expressions of shock, the remaining three have an extra expression, shock along with fear.

They are extremely afraid.

One of them wanted to escape immediately and was about to take out a transference token, but he stopped when he heard Sam’s words.

"Let’s see who is faster. Your token or my bullet."

Five energy bullets are already hovering around Sam’s hand as he nonchalantly spoke.

Then he looked at the rest of the blue cloaks and said.

"Surround the three of them and capture. Don’t kill them."

The group hesitated a little, but they still reluctantly surrounded them.

One of the three couldn’t take the pressure anymore and speak up.

"Guys, don’t believe him. He is framing us. This time it is the three of us and next time it could be any of you. He is deliberately sabotaging our relationship."

The group members swayed a bit, they looked at Sam in askance, but Sam didn’t bother to explain himself and let the token in his hand do the job.

One after another the token started playing different audios. The audios are of various scenarios, some of them are the audios of the battles they just had, some are them cursing when they are on scout duty and so on.

"I recorded everything that has happened. And if I have to frame you, I don’t need to do all of this. Don’t insult me like that."

With that, the group immediately made a move and captured them. The three of them didn’t put up any resistance. They knew for sure that they wouldn’t be able to win or escape, they figured that they would have to go through less suffering if they surrendered quietly.

Sam brought the group to the city and handed over the three of them to Grivon.

"They are your subordinates, you can deal with them however you want. And these are the loopholes in the contract, you better rectify them." Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Sam gave the contracts back and only when Grivon looked at the highlighted parts, did he notice how they could be twisted.

The derived meaning is extremely farfetched and to be put in simpler terms, the three of them managed to spill the secret about Sam and Grivon and their participation in the whole scenario in an extremely indirect way.

First, they managed to get in touch with this useless fellow who acts as an errand boy within the brothel, after getting in touch with him, they made him drunk and acted as if they were friends. They gave him some hot gossip of the Gaja clan and the city headquarters.

Then they indirectly gave out the news, that somebody is trying to gain information regarding Migron’s current situation and they casually mentioned who it is and they also said that the bad luck of Migron has started only after his meeting with Grivon.

They knew this guy would do anything for money and resources of course except fighting and struggling, so he decided to take this chance and made an elaborate plan. He used one of the prostitutes in the brothel to let a person in a desperate situation and used her to broker a deal with him and manipulated him to go to the league member.

All this while, the three blue cloaks only gave him suggestions and never actively divulged the important information.

They knew that the league member only needs a lead and doesn’t need much information, so they only gave out a lead in a way that doesn’t betray the contract.

After Sam and Grivon learned about the brothel, one of the three took the duty of arranging the clan space gates. To use the gates they need to register in the clan and he took up the job himself and in-process used Grivon’s own network to send the information faster to this guy.

He immediately used another prostitute to kill the first one and escaped after he gave the tokens for this space gate formation in the woods.

As for how he got them, it was once again the blue cloaks. They killed a few of the other young master’s subordinates go the tokens for this special space gate and gave it to him in case he needs to escape. He gave the two of them to the prostitute and the manager, but now one thing led to another, everyone is caught.

Of course, even though the idiot from the brothel was not caught, he is not exactly necessary. He only knew that someone is looking for the information and he has the information. He doesn’t really know the significance of it and he definitely doesn’t know how powerful Grivon and Migron are.

To catch that guy, Grivon doesn’t even need to dirty his own hands. All he has to do is give the details to Migron’s father and he would do the job.

But the situation with the three blue cloaks is something he should be dealing with himself.

He is extremely angry, but even that anger is clouded by disappointment.

After all, he has been genuinely good for these subordinates and treated them as friends for them to go far as to stab him in the back, which is something he didn’t expect.

He wanted to ask why, but before he could even ask, they already spilled the beans.

"It is not to betray you. It is to make him go away."

One of them spoke while pointing at Sam which made him chuckle.

"He changed everything between us from the day he came. We cannot stand him. We figured that when it comes to it, you would choose yourself over him, so we wanted to make him get caught and figured that everything would go to how it was before."

"So, all you wanted is to be treated like brats by me, without any decorum of subordinate and the boss. You liked lording over me, doing things behind my back and mooching off of me, undermining authority every chance you got."

The three of them didn’t have an answer for that, but their silence could be regarded as acceptance. After all, that is what they had done all this while. They took advantage of Grivon. They influenced his decisions, they had some real power to the point that they forgot they are the subordinates in this relationship.

But they couldn’t really say it loud.

Grivon gritted his teeth and took his sword out. With a single swing, he severed the head of one of the three and moved to the other one.

He did the same to the others too regardless of their pleadings and requests.. He just killed them and let specter extract their memories to make sure that they are telling the truth.
