chapter-1679
The next morning.
Sam sat in the backyard of Brig's estate. He had fruit juice in front of him as he looked at the warm sun in the sky.
He took in the fresh smell of grass as he took deep breaths every second.
"This is great. You guys really lucked out with the location here."
He turned to look at Brig, Yana, and Kach.Kach also took some fruit and smiled.
"You should visit the Meadow clan sometime. The view there is amazing. You will have the best time there if you really like being in nature."
"Then I will definitely visit. Not any time soon though."
Brig looked at the two youngsters talking. His face is dark with anger.
Last night, it was late when the battle finally ended and he sent all of the enemies packing back to their clan.
"If you are done with your stupid small talk, I would like to talk to you about something."
"I mean, I really don't want to ruin my breakfast time. Can you wait for a moment? I will be done fast.""I am talking something serious here. And I also heard you ate a lot yesterday, so what is the point of eating again? It is not like you are going to die if you skip a meal."
"Yeah, yeah. Just carry on. What happened last night? Did you get any information at all?"
"Yes. We did. We captured some of the key members yesterday because we were prepared and when we asked them, they told us the exact reason you told us they would.
They attacked so hastily because they were sure you wouldn't have made much progress with us and we wouldn't have known about the current scenario.
It seems like considering your opinion is worth something. We need to discuss this matter in more detail.
What do you know about these extra people? The person that you identified yesterday, has actually increased their chances of winning drastically. He turned out to be an excellent commander and a great master at battle formations.
His strategies made half of the city into a battlefield. If we hadn't taken the measures beforehand, things would have been extremely tragic. Particularly the lives of the commoners. We would have lost a lot of them.
If the rest of the people that came are also as troublesome as him, then we need to rethink the situation completely.
For that, we need you to give us all the details about them."
"I am sorry. I am not giving you any details about them. Much less all the details. We might have our differences, but we have our own code. If you really want my help, then let's do things my way. Get me the details of other clans and I will give you a strategy that will work perfectly well.
If you cannot do that, then we can proceed as how we did yesterday. I will give you some tips based on the bits and pieces of info you are bringing me and you can try to defend yourself.
It is just that my way, we will be trying our best to make sure that the war wouldn't come to us. But in your way, we will just handle the war as it is."
"You said they are your rivals and you will be leaving after a week. Wouldn't it be better if you just give us the info? You will also get rid of the competition this way."
"I don't need these methods to win a competition. Even if we are rivals, we just went through a lot together. I don't even want to explain myself to you. Just know that you won't get anything from me. I am your best shot here. I don't know what else I need to do to convince you."
"Be honest."
"I cannot be more honest. I could have fooled you with half-assed info long ago. All I needed to do was add some mystery into this and manipulate you guys a bit, you would sit me done and worshipped me.
And here I am trying to fend off your doubts one by one."
Brig didn't know what to say to that. He has to agree with what Sam said. He would have definitely taken advantage of the situation. He would have never taken such a direct approach as Sam did.
Except for the point through which he approached him, everything else is direct and crisp. He didn't beat around the bush and he didn't try to hide his intentions.
After thinking for some time, he looked at Sam and said.
"I will give you some information. About Clan4 and Clan5. The two clans didn't make any move. Neither positive nor negative. We will get the information on them by this evening. We will get a basic idea of what they are doing.
Analyze the data I give you By evening, let's meet and discuss a plan to counter the plan we have and you have. Is that okay? If you do well, I will give you the rest of the info. This is the final test.
You should also understand my situation. A guy comes out of nowhere and says that he will help me save the technique from stealing, the same technique that I just got hours ago. How is that even trustworthy?"
"I can understand that a bit. Sure. Share the data with me. I will give you a plan by tonight. Try to be as detailed as possible though and share even the minor details. The details which you guys usually think are insignificant might become really important."
"Details like what?"
"Two men loving the same women. A smitten young girl. An old flame that was forced apart because of familial circumstances. Insecurities of a young master, an elder's embarrassing situation. Any detail will help."
"Why do you want to know all that crap?"
"Crap? You don't know what kind of things I was able to accomplish with this kind of information. I once destroyed a whole organization by making my subordinate have sex with a prostitute that was favored by the young master of the clan.
He saw it in the afternoon and the organization was destroyed by night.
All of you guys are so used to using your brute force, that you forgot what a brain is really capable of. If you have enough info and know how to process it, there are a few things you cannot accomplish.
Anyway, just compile the info and send it to me. Meanwhile, I would finish my food."
Sam finished his breakfast.
After an hour, he got a bunch of scrolls.
A lot of them.
He took them up and studied as he munched on snacks and wine. He really enjoyed the day, without holding back. It is still the second day and there are no visible signs of any of the players making a move. So, he has some relative leisure time.
While Sam is preparing for what's to come, somewhere else within the realm.
Clan 4 and Clan 5.
The two neighboring clans are still waiting their time to make a move. They still didn't know what kind of stand they should take. Their gods sure told them to make the technique theirs, but they are not sure if they are capable of it.
And even if they did, they don't think it would be an easy task to keep the technique safe. They are all contemplating what the other clans would be doing and from what they learned from the first three clans, they are sure that sending their youngsters is a no-go.
While they are like this, the two players assigned to these clans visited them by the end of the first day.
They didn't take the chaotic approach like Sam and they didn't take that mysteriously easy way like Dayus. They took a simple and direct way.
They approached the core members of the clan after investigating for more than half a day and put their proposal up revealing as much information as they can.
And by now, both of these players are currently talking to the core members of the clans, trying to convince them.
Inside Clan 4, Noah is sitting in the meeting room in front of all of their core members.
"I know it is hard to believe me. But you should know that I don't have any bad intentions toward your clan. I can sign a soul contract with you.
And I think it is better if you guys tied up Clan 5 and obtained this technique together. That way, the chances are high. As you might have known the other four clans are also trying to get this technique and we know for a fact that they are not going to put up an easy fight.
I already explained the rest of the plan and how I will proceed with this. So, if you agree, I will meet with the Clan5 and set up a partnership."
