Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-141

The next day, the whole city was in turmoil.

Marquis summoned the whole city for an assembly in the stadium where Sam made his demonstration for his weapon shop opening.

Almost all the citizens gathered.

Marquis stood on the stage with a desolate look.

He took a look at all the audience and took a deep breath before saying.

"Yesterday, I found that there are many officials and my second son, working with an evil organisation who operate the illegal prostitution, drugs, assassinations and all kinds of evil deeds.

After looking into the matter and obtaining proper evidence, I personally raided the place and after confirming the truth I executed them immediately.

So, I want to say one thing, those who harm the society and the citizens of the empire, no matter who it is, they shall be executed and I hereby order all the remaining members of this organisation to surrender.

If you surrender, you will be given a chance after doing your time in the jail, if you don't then you better pray that we will not catch you or else, you will be executed on the spot."

After a big applause, he dismissed the assembly and went back to the Marquis mansion.

"How dare you kill my son? And you dare to label him as a part of some evil organisation. You, sick bastard. Did those bitches pillow talk you do this? He doesn't even compete for your position and he didn't even go against that Zeke's business. Why did you kill him?

Is it because, he doesn't benefit you anyway? You bastard."

As soon as he entered his personal room, he was hit by a barrage of words from his screaming second wife.

He didn't know what to say and just stayed silent. He has obtained enough evidence to convince her, but he was also afraid, that if she can bear that heart break. After all, all three kids are closer to their mothers than him and that is even more true in case of the second son.

"Why are you not talking?" *Pah* She slapped him in his face directly.

Only at this moment did he lift his head to look at her face. She is a beautiful woman and so are the two other sisters but of three of them, she is the gentlest one.

Of all three of his wives, the first one is a person who is too wilful and the third one is too scheming. Out of all three, the second wife is the only one who acts normally and now she is not like her usual self at all.

He finally opened his mouth.

"You know me better than that. I might not love you but that is also the case with your two sisters, if I have to be blunt, you three are my liabilities which I cannot get rid of. As for the children, I treat them equally and I take my responsibility as a father.

Don't even raise the question of me being biased or swayed by pillow talk, you should know better than anyone how many times you three have a chance to do pillow talk to even have a chance to sway me.

As for your son's death, I only have one thing to say, he only brought this upon himself. He mixed with wrong people and targeted the worst person he could possibly mess with. If I give you anymore details your heart won't be able to take it.

Just deny everything and live in peace."

He didn't even wait for her reaction after finishing his piece.

He has a lot of things to do and one of them is meeting Sam. So, he sent a messenger to arrange a meeting. It is not suitable for both of them to meet openly.

The announcement he made is not detailed and many officials are still having speculations on what really happened, if he meets a Rank 5 Artisan, then there might be someone who can draw some seemingly impossible, theories.

They decided to meet at a secret room under the Marquis mansion. It has an underground path connecting to the woods.

Sam and Watt went out of the city and went to spot where this underground entrance was. After walking for about an hour, they entered a dimly lit room where Marquis is sitting alone.

He gestured Sam to sit and after a brief silence, he finally spoke.

"After you left the place, I found something over there."

He took out three spatial rings. Sam could easily guess what they are. The three spatial rings of the Black water. One with the rewards, the second one with the spiritual stones which is also the income of the organisation, the third one is the resources.

Sam didn't take them immediately and just looked at Marquis who took out around thirty spatial rings and placed them on the table.

These are the spatial rings of the people you killed; it also includes the ring of the Old man.

But I took my son's ring. I hope you don't mind."

Sam didn't talk and gestured Watt to collect the rings.

"Where are the scrolls?" He asked.

Marquis placed another spatial ring on the table.

"I read the contents. I never heard of this organisation before."

Sam didn't say anything and just took all the spatial rings and stood up.

"Is there anything else?"

He asked as he looked at Marquis.

"Nothing, I will just add his name to the eliminated candidates and you won't have to worry about those guys targeting you. As for going to the dukedom, we need to start after fifteen days and after going there, please do take caution against General Spark.

He is the father of my wives and with your beef with Zeke, my first wife might have already given him a message and he might target you."

"Thanks" Sam said simply and left with Watt.

Marquis slumped in his chair. He wanted to see how Sam is doing, he wanted to see if he is at least a bit nervous to meet a stronger person, whose son was killed by him. He wanted to see if he is at least a bit afraid.

But from what he saw, he is not even a least bit afraid. He is as confident as he always was.

After the meeting, Sam and Watt left the place. He didn't check the things in the spatial ring immediately. He knew for sure that Marquis wouldn't do anything funny by pocketing some loot.

When he came out of the tunnel and went to the woods, he went back to his mansion and holed up inside the divine dimension. He has a new thought and this can be commercialised in the Dukedom city.

So, he immediately went inside the tower.

After last night, he pulled himself together and he is already thinking of new projects.

Apart from that, he is also thinking of doing some research on cultivation. Even though, the Marquis said that the phase was cancelled, there might be a reason for them to assign a whole six months just for studying.

So, he can be occupied for next fifteen days, till they started their journey or rather the 150 days in the tower.

He checked the spatial ring of the meteorite sands and he got a delightful surprise.

There are more than 100 cubes of meteorite sand and most of it is Grey meteorite sand which occupied more than 80 cubes, the remaining is the silver meteorite sand.

Even though, he can do a lot of things with the Silver meteorite sand, the Grey meteorite sand is not enough, he planned a lot of things for that, and the plan is a large one.

But he has one application for this Grey sand and that is to make an anvil and some hammers of different sizes.

After making that, he forged for more than fifteen days inside the tower and the rest of the days, he just stayed in the library and occasionally, he went to the simulation room to test some theories.

He carefully studied numerous cultivation arts, he studied the circulation of various meridians and the affects of the spiritual energy circulation on the autonomy.

Soon, he was hooked.

These cultivation techniques opened a new world for him and when he studied the cultivation specific battle techniques, he was even more amused.

His thirst for knowledge started acting up.

He started experimenting with the simulations on how these things work, because, if he can understand these things, he could open a new door for myriad of possibilities.

He has already planned on making use of his technology along with this cultivation. He almost forgot the rest of the world and got too involved with these theories.

But there is one thing he is unsatisfied with and that is there are too many racks of divine wills that has information with cultivation techniques, cultivation specific battle fields.

He was disappointed that he was unable to continue with his exploration.
