Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Duke Carton frowned at the words of the two young men.

Even though, everything Sam said was on point, it is too hurtful to hear them and made them feel ashamed as their mistakes being pointed out by a youngster.

As for the squad leader of the thunder wolf squad, he really didnʼt have any right to speak here. After all, the mistake is his teacherʼs, even his Samʼs actions are overhanded, they can only blame their teacher if they have slightest bit on conscience.

”Sam, you are strong, I give you that, you are talented in many fields I give you that too. You are the biggest victim in this situation, but you cannot just insult the whole army of the Southern star.” Duke said slowly.

”Insult the army? Duke Carton, you got something wrong here. If anybody is insulted, then that was me. It is an insult for me to stay in the army. From top brass to the underdogs everything was messed up.” Samʼs reply made the generalʼs face turn red in embarrassment.

”You cannot just make accusations Sam. What you are saying is that the General, Deputy general and even all the commanders are just raising a bunch of waste all these years. Is that it?” Duke asked.

”Yes. Thatʼs what I mean.”

”But you cannot simply say that. You have to prove it.”

”I defeated a whole battalion myself, even the thunder wolf Novice squad was beaten half to death. I think that is enough proof. If you are not satisfied, I can have a go again, but this time, I wonʼt hold back and I think I can make another blade after that.”

Duke was speechless, he knew what Sam did with the Cougar family, but saying that he would do the same with his army, isnʼt it asking for a beating?

But he controlled the urge and said.

”That only proves you are overly strong.”

”Then how do you want me to prove it?” Sam frowned and asked.

”We will get to that later, now let us first deal with the issue between you and General Spark. How do you want to settle this?”

”I am not the one who started this. You should ask the one who started on what his end goal is. Who knows, he might have planned to toy with me and my friends to death, he might have wanted to steal my wealth, he might cripple us and leave us on the road.

An incompetent leader who only knows how to abuse his authority can do anything?”

Sam is clearly making a point; he is not done with the General. No matter, how they changed the topic he simply wouldnʼt let go of the point ʼabuse of authorityʼ.

Duke sighed and said.

”Sam, you should cooperate. Even though, General did those things, it was only on a moment of spite, he wouldnʼt do such things with his position.”

”How are so sure, Duke Carton? For all we know, he might have killed all the people that offended his grandsons and erased the evidence. Why do you think his grandsons are so confident that they can even ostracize us from the whole crowd?

This is clearly not the first time.”

General gritted his teeth as he stared at Sam. This is unbelievably big accusation for a person in a position like him.

Yes, it is true that he used his authority to help his grandsons, but that doesnʼt mean he is cruel enough to kill people just because of them. Sam is clearly painting him as an evil guy.

Duke shook his head and said.

”Sam, what do you want exactly?”

”I need an answer. What is the end goal of the general? When would he have stopped harassing us if I didnʼt retaliate?”

Duke looked at General Spark, but the latter avoided his gaze. He didnʼt want to say, because, his grandsons clearly asked something big to be done to Sam and that is Sam kicked out of the competition along with his teammates and there is one more thing they wanted to do, which he didnʼt want to say in front of Sam.

Because, Sam just gave a warning yesterday about it.

”General Spark. Please donʼt let me and your disciples, lose the last shred of respect we have towards you.” Duke said in a tone of disappointment.

But the General felt that he shouldnʼt say the truth even more after hearing it. When facing his grandsonsʼ requests, he didnʼt think that they are wrong and that is mostly because of his guilt.

But that doesnʼt mean he didnʼt know what is wrong or right. If he said those words, he would be painted as a black hearted villain in his studentsʼ hearts.

He took a deep breath and looked at Sam before saying.

”Sam, it is really my fault for doing this to you and me and my grandsons will take the responsibility. As for what my end goal was, I will tell you as long as you let Jim get the treatment and we can discuss on what you want to bury this hatchet.

A lot of innocent people are involved, please donʼt make this anymore complicated.

What do you want? I can pay you if you need money. If you want some resources, pills, ores I can get them for you. Can you let this go? After this we wonʼt cross each otherʼs ways.”

Sam looked at him coldly. He took out a bunch of scrolls and said.

”Who needs your money? Your four regiments owe me around 360 million. You better think of ways to pay me back before asking me how much I want.

You are not worthy enough to buy me with money.

As for resources, do you think your connections can best mine?” Sam flashed his artisan badges while looking at Jim.

Then only General remembered what Sam could do. Jimʼs treatment is an example. He became silent immediately.

Sam turned to Duke and said.

”I have two conditions. First one, Blue fire the grandson of General Spark should be deprived of his right to succeed the noble title from his father and General Spark should resign to his position.

He can stay in the military; he can run his squad. But he should be deprived of his General title.”

Everyone in the room were stunned and then revealed myriad of expressions. Duke was dumbfounded, General was furious and the disciples are looking at Sam in horror.

They all had one thing in their mind. ”Sam has balls of steel.”

”Sam, all this time, even if you are being blunt at least you said some truth. But this is damn right outrageous. You are not qualified enough to decide the nobility titles and positions of the military command.”

Duke said, this time his tone is cold.

”Oh, sure then you decide. What is the appropriate compensation then? The General wouldnʼt tell me what he planned for me to decide what sort of compensation I should get, you are saying that my current demand is outrageous, you decide.”

At this moment, general understood that he has to reveal his plans he made, otherwise Sam is going to stay mum. He has a fleeting thought of lying through this, but when he saw Duke who knew how general is like, he knows that it wonʼt end well and Sam is not a fool either.

So, he decided and said to Sam.

”I was planning to make you withdraw from the competition and… Zeke asked me to deal with your subordinate.” By the end of the statement, his voice was low. Earlier Sam had given him a warning, not to mess with Watt but his plans precisely included him.

The whole room of people sensed a change in Sam.

Sam is emitting a lot of killing intent. It is so much that the battle-hardened General and Duke also felt suffocating.

They could almost smell blood from Sam.

Sam gave an icy cold stare filled with murderous gleam.

”You have guts, old man. Trust me. One day you are going to die in this very city and no one would dare say a word about it.

As for your grandson Zeke, you better make sure that you hide him as soon as possible.

You dare use your authority to deal with my people, I will destroy that authority. I will strip you off of your everything.

Your title, your family, your disciples, they will leave to the gutter. Anyone who helps you, I will them in cold blood.”

Then he turned towards Duke and said.

”There is no room for compromise.”

Sam turned to leave.

Duke came out of his trance and immediately stood up. He felt like Sam is a god of killing. He only felt that much killing intent and blood l.u.s.t from a single person and that person in his life. So, he went into a stupor.

”Sam stop.” He yelled and immediately released his aura to suppress Sam unconsciously.

Sam stumbled and felt his legs buckle in pressure. He spat a mouthful of blood even if the pressure for only there for a moment.

He turned around and glared at the Duke.

”I apologise, that was a mistake.” Duke immediately said as he saw Samʼs pale complexion.

Samʼs cold glare didnʼt subside. ”I donʼt care if it is a mistake or not. But you better think before you make a move on me.

You either kill me in a single blow or leave me alone. Otherwise, with your status the whole southern star territory will be implicated.”

Sam still kept his arrogance. He might be weak, but physical strength is not the only thing that can decide. He has enough resources to get lost from his place. Save his teammates and escape from this empire. He can stay low for a while and he will destroy the southern star in a while.

His ideas for creation might take some time, but for destruction. The more creative a person is the more destructive that person can be.

Duke was surprised by Samʼs words. That unwavering confidence made his hesitate.

”Sam, even though General thought ill of you, he didnʼt do anything yet. We can still remedy the situation.”

”There is nothing to remedy. Nobody can think doing anything to my people and live to see another day.”

”Sam, even you insulted the whole army. From the usual rules you can be executed.”

”Not if what I said was true.”

”Then prove it.”

”How?”

”Test. Since, you claim that General is incompetent and you completely believe so. I will give you a chance to prove it.

Prove that you are a more capable than him and you would have the ability to judge him.

If you really go against him now, the military and dukedom have to interfere. I will give you a solution for this too. You win this test and the General will only be a normal reserve of the army and after you think you are competent enough; you can come challenge him. if you win you can kill him.

Nobody will interfere.

And I will even give you a thousand points if can clear this test.

All I ask is you do not involve the soldiers and the innocent in this.”

Sam coldly smiled in his heart. His second agenda was met.
