Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam and the rest calmed down after a while, and he sat cross-legged in order to examine his new abilities. He spread out a hand to control the air around. He concentrated on the surrounding wind and condensed it until it was visible to the n.a.k.e.d eye. He started controlling it along with his finger’s movements. But it was pretty difficult and is taking him a lot of concentration.

Then he dispersed the wind, he closed his eyes and activated his observing ability. From his senses he could see the air around him in completely different way. He could see the air in the form of the mixture of the various gases. Even though he couldn’t actually see it, he could sense the different gas particles and differentiate if he concentrated.

Sam closely observed the air he was breathing in and out. What he was trying to do is that if he can identify the different gases in the air and the first gas, he could think of was oxygen. When he looked at the air he breathed in and compared it with the air he breathed out, he could sense that certain gas is missing and he wanted to identify it. After some trails, he was unable to differentiate the gas and finally gave up.

’Maybe I should increase my mental power and try it again after increasing my concentration level.’ Sam thought inwardly and stood up. He then looked at Watt and said. "Change your dress, we are going home."

After a while, Sam is back at the mansion. This is the day when he has to discuss plans with Jack. He brought along Watt and Falck. While Yanwu and Sky both are in the Divine Dimension along with two panthers.

"Pick any room which is empty." Sam said to Watt and after the latter decided on a room, he took him to his study.

After a while, Jack came and sat across the table.

"Who is this?" Jack asked as he pointed at Watt. But Watt didn’t bother to reply. He stood behind Sam with his back straight.

"He is my subordinate." Jack didn’t think much after Sam’s reply and asked.

"What is the plan?"

"The strength of the Black Pond is beyond our limits. We can forget about fighting head on. What we can do is use some under the table means to deal with them. Their combined strength is that they have 500 Acolytes, 100 Novices and in which 68 of them are in early stages, 20 middle stage, 8 late stage and the remaining four at the peak stage.

The last and the main strength of the Black pond is that they have a Great Mage at early stage. The in charge of the Black Pond restaurant." Sam recited all this info in a single breath. This is the info in the scrolls that were stolen by the shadow mice. He doesn’t know why this kind of info was written in the scrolls but be was glad that there was written. He took a breath and then continued.

"Among these members the Acolytes are completely used for information. They are completely oblivious who they are really working for. They are working for either the Piranha of Candiru. They don’t know the existence of their superior named Black Pond or Black water.

The Acolytes are spread all over the city. They are some inn workers, restaurant owners, hooligans, students in the academy, workers in some families etc. They have most normal jobs possible.

The early stage novices are a bit spread over in the upper circle, while they still take tasks from the Piranha and Candiru. They knew that both are a combined organisation but still oblivious of the Black Pond. The middle stage and late stage novices are the ones who are mostly management staff of the organisation. They are responsible for taking tasks, managing the brothels, trade of the slaves etc.

The Peak stage novices are direct subordinates of the Leader who is the Great mage and are four over lookers of the organisation." When Sam finished saying this, Jack was a bit confused on why he is saying all this and Watt was surprised. He never thought that there is such a huge organisation running under noses of the Count. Sam then looked at Watt as if to observe latter’s reaction.

Jack then only understood that Sam is saying the information for Watt. After a few seconds of silence, Sam continued.

"First, we will target the Acolytes who are working in restaurants and inns or other settlements. We will leave those people who are in the families and academy. We will only target only those in the city and particularly, those who infiltrated the gangs. We are going to take them out.

We will take care of them region after region. We will only act at night. After we are done with this, we will take next step."

Sam finished saying as he looked at Jack. Jack thought for a moment and asked.

"What region are we taking on tonight?"

"Eastern region. But before that we have something else to do." Sam said and stood up. He took out a bundle of scrolls and gave them to Watt and instructed.

"Take them to the Artisan tower and assign tasks to make them. No matter how many artisans it takes, I need them to be ready by tomorrow. Do you have enough spirit stones to pay up?"

Watt nodded and immediately went out. He left Falck in his room and immediately went to the Artisan tower.

"We have to make a visit to piranha." Sam said as went out along with Jack. After a while, both of them are at the door step of the restaurant in which Eisen placed a bounty on Sam’s panthers.

Both of them walked towards a remote private room and knocked three times on the door. After the same knocking was heard from inside, both of them went in. Sam and Jack took seat in front of a person who is completely covered in black clothes and a face mask.

"What is the task?" The black figure asked.

"I need some beasts." Sam passed him a note and said.

When the latter looked at the beasts inside the note, he took a look at Sam again as he sized him up.

"Alive or dead?"

"Alive."

"50,000 spirit stones." The black figure said after some thinking. Sam immediately took out a leather bag and paid up.

"There will be ready by tomorrow." The black figure immediately replied after accepting the payment.

Both Jack and Sam stood up and walked towards the door. Before he left Sam said. "Deliver them to my mansion. I believe you guys know the address."

After they went out, Jack asked. "What is in the list?" He couldn’t hold back his curiosity. After all, their aim is to destroy Piranha and here Sam is giving them a task to earn his money.

"Green mist toad, brown fang snake, Black strip spider, three tail scorpion..." Sam listed out some names. Jack was shocked as he heard the names. Even though, he doesn’t know about all the beasts in the list, he knew some of them. All of them have one thing in common. They are all extremely venomous and poisonous. The venoms and poisons are so potent that even Novices can’t escape completely unscathed.

"what do you need all of these for?" Jack asked as he looked at Sam with widened eyes. But he only got a smile in reply. On their way back to mansion both of them didn’t speak at all.

That night, both Sam and Jack came out of the mansion silently. They came to the back yard only to see two huge birds. One is Sky and another one is a whirl wind falcon similar to Falck. Sam has sent Sky out to get this bird.

He pointed the whirl wind falcon and said to Jack. "That would be your ride for the night. Take this note. These are your targets for today. Make it as soon as possible." He said as he boarded Sky and went away flying.

Jack didn’t feel much surprised about Sam having more beasts. He boarded the Falcon and he also went away.

That night, the eastern region of the city, fell into chaos. Particularly, many gang members of the Eastern gang are found dead in many areas. Other than that, some inns and restaurants are left on fire or collapsed completely.

The Eastern gang and the city guards on duty were all given a huge shock. The killings are very fast and swift. Nobody, knew who the killer is. But all they could see is that the killer came on a bird type beast and killed the target without any words and left silently.

The City guards immediately went to confront the eastern gang in the middle of night. They thought that the Eastern gang is responsible for this. Because, this didn’t seem like revenge at all. It is more like, wrecking the business and when the guards enquired further, they thought that these shops might be some who rejected to pay the protection fee. The corpses of some of the eastern gang members near the settlements only gave them more assurance on their thoughts as they thought these members might be casualties in the confrontation to between the shop owners and the gang.

Sam and Jack finished the job as quickly as possible and came back to the mansion. The two birds immediately disappeared as soon as they landed giving Jack a huge scare. But he didn’t question Sam and kept his curiosity to himself.

Next day, the news of deaths was completely spread among the masses. All of them also believed the conjecture of the city guards. They felt that this issue is caused by the gang themselves. But only three people knew the conjecture was entirely wrong. They are Jack, Sam and the Novice in charge of supervising the intel given by the acolytes. He was completely shocked when he saw that more than seventy five percent of the Acolytes in the Eastern region dead.

He clearly knew about the acolytes who died are all in the same team. That is why he is fl.u.s.tered. After all, killing these acolytes means that the other party knew about the organisation. If he didn’t find who targeted them, the higher ups will definitely deal with him.

So, he didn’t report the news to the higher ups immediately and wanted to investigate. But all leads disappeared with only one result. The killer is on a bird type beast.

Meanwhile, the perpetrators are resting in a mansion.

Sam was quite busy today. He has a day full of plans he needs to do.

Watt went to Artisan tower to receive the items he ordered yesterday. While, his yard was now filled with all kinds of venomous beasts. All of them are delivered by the people from Piranha. They were locked with restriction placed on them and were sealed.

Sam went in to the yard and took them all inside the divine dimension and went back to his room. After instructing that no one should come and disturb him, he went to the second floor of the tower.

Sam is looking at the various beasts which are varying quantities. He took out some wats and started collecting all the venom of the beasts. For example, he extracted the venom from the fangs of snakes, he fleeced the skin of the Green mist toad which is extremely poisonous, the poison sack of the three tailed scorpions. He collected the venoms separately in various wats.

After the process is completed, he took out a cauldron and mixed the venoms in it with a slight flame below. He closed the lid and left it on the flame without doing anything. He stayed like that until everything in the cauldron came to liquid state.

He just placed the lid like that and just stopped applying the heat through fire.

When he came out Watt already came back from the Artisan tower. Sam took the parts and went to the bas.e.m.e.nt of the mansion, to where both Jack and Watt followed.

He started assembling the machine under the surprised and confused gazes of the both of them. By the time he was done, it was already afternoon.
