Sam looked at the incoming barbarians and took out the harbinger before slowly taking off.

This time, no one tried to stop him, even though Dhar didn't say anything.

Because Dhruv who is hanging on Sam's shoulder is clearly visible.

They stopped in their tracks feeling a bit anxious. Dhar gritted his teeth and stood up with his one arm broken and the other one bleeding like crazy, he walked into the city in a gloomy mood.

Nobody knows what he is thinking, but everyone knows that Dhar and Dhruv are close. Someone kidnapping his brother right in front of him must have been devastating.

Meanwhile, Dhar didn't even go for the healing, he went straight to Watt to talk to him. This came as a surprise to everyone, but some of them are paranoid, they thought he might do something to Watt out of spite since his younger brother is taken away now.

Dhar casually removed Watt's shackles and sat in front of him. Watt didn't bother to escape or even try to escape, he just stretched his body really well and sat down in front of Dhar.

"My brother was taken away by your friend."

"It is expected. He does that sometimes."

"I want to kill your friend now."

"That is nothing new, you can try."

"Are you not angry?"

"Yes, but is there anything I can do? If it was the previous me, I would have raged and showed my dissatisfaction which increases my chances of getting killed, but now I want to live a long and happy life."

"Do you know why I released your shackles?"

"Not really, maybe you are confident that I won't be able to escape."

"No, when he took Dhruv away, I thought. My heart would break if he were treated the same you were treated here. Now only I understood how frustrated and annoyed you must have felt when I imagined my brother in your place."

"Don't say these things to your captive, never. Because you would never know what kind of sick manipulative psychos they can be.

If Sam was in my place, then you just put your life in a box and gave him the key."

"It doesn't matter. Today is the last day of your imprisonment. I will be taking you away at dawn tomorrow. You are going to be free."

With that Dhar left and Watt laid on the floor on his back as he let his sore back muscles relax a bit and slowly recovered his energy back.

Meanwhile,the news about Watt's release spread all over the kala tribe, but nobody among his peers dared to complain about that. But that didn't apply to the elders. They couldn't even wait until he was healed and already started trying to persuade him otherwise and some even demanding explanations.

Dhar didn't even speak for a single second. He just stayed there calmly and silently without even acknowledging their presence, after he was healed he left to his residence within the estate and there he met his father.

"Are you sure you want to give him away? There is no way what he might do to our tribe if we don't have that hostage." His father asked him.

Dhar stopped in his tracks and asked.

"Why is that Warton barbarian tribe annihilated? In fact, why did we even go after Watt? Why did we provoke his friend? What do we have to gain from this? We lost more than forty men and you yourself know what he might do to us.

Dhruv wouldn't be able to endure half of the tortures we put Watt through. Even imagining it making me breath harder.

Why are we doing this?"

"Because Goddess asked us to?"

"If we did as Goddess asked, then why are so many of our men died like that? Why did she not save them from the plights caused by the duty we did for her?"

"You cannot question the Goddess like that?"

"Of course, I cannot. I am mere soldier. I am only good for fighting and dying for her. Not for asking explanations. I don't care if you did it for goddess or the devil, tomorrow I am taking Watt and I will bring my brother back, no matter what conditions he placed.

Otherwise, not only me our entire tribe will be annihilated just like how we killed the Warton tribe."

"What do you mean?"

"Since we retaliated in front of his generous offer he is going to meet some other major barbarians tomorrow to offer alliance. So, if we failed tomorrow because of your schemes you can thank youself and your goddess for the destruction of our tribe."

With that the discussion was over and Dhar went away.

He called for some of his peers who are close to him and formed the team. Before dawn they all prepared to move out and they took Watt with him, even his father didn't stop him.

Soon they reached the meeting spot and there Sam is waiting alone with Dhruv. Both of them sitting beside a campfire as Sam roasted something over it.

Even when he saw them, he didn't stop his actions, he just left come forward. After they got close, Dhar stopped the rest of his peers at the rear and walked towards the campfire with Watt and sat on a log opposite of Sam and Dhruv.

Dhruv is feeling anxious as he looked at Sam's nonchalance.

Sam looked at Watt and said.

"You don't look so bad. They treated you well."

"It's the wine and yesterday, I finally got the chance to properly recover. As per the treatment you can guess. It is not the worst, but it didn't tickle."

Sam just chuckled in reply and looked at Dhar before saying.

"Send him here and I will send him there. At the same time."

Both of nodded and pushed their hostages forward at the same time.

Sam placed his arm over Watt and used the observation skill to see any anomalies on his body or possessions.

There is nothing fishy so he finally relaxed.

Watt suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Where are my board and the coat?"

Dhruv hurriedly took out things from his spatial ring and gave them to Watt.

It seems like they ended up in the youngest son's hands.

"Can we stop the war now?"

Dhar asked after the exchange.

"No, not really. You seemed to have forgotten the reasons for the start of this war are not just one. There is another reason, Warton tribe's annihilation.

According to the barbarian laws, you cannot kill them directly. Why did your members kill them just for the slightest resistance? And why did they went so far as killing the infants too? I not only need answers, I also need the men who killed, the one who ordered and the extras who supported. If you can give them to me and I let my friend and his soon-to-be wife kill them, then I would leave you guys alone."

"That is not possible."

Before Dhar could even say something, one of his peers rejected, when everyone looked at him, he didn't dare to make eye contact. He is acting dodgy.

Sam took out one of the cylindrical bombs he dropped on the city and said.

"This is the thing I dropped on your city the other day. I dropped around a fifty of these."

He stored that away and took something else. It is completely similar to the one before, but the size differed.

Sam aligned the discs and injected his energy before throwing it away.

"And this is the one ten times bigger than that one."

The bomb landed a few hundred meters away and exploded.

*BOOM*

A large explosion and when the dust settled, there is a large spatial tear that is sucking the dust, rocks and all the debris that was caused by the explosion as the crack slowly mended.

"I have made a hundred of those."

Sam said causally and took out an even bigger one. It is at least twenty-five times bigger than the first one.

"I have a fifty of these."

Then he walked to the nearby empty space and waved his hand.

A large bomb fell with a thud.

"And a ten of these."

He stored it away and walked back to the campfire and said casually.

"Actually, I wanted to kill your whole tribe. That is why prepared them. Not even a single piece of flesh would be left after I use them properly. But Wembley didn't let me.

She doesn't want the innocent children and ordinary citizens to suffer because of some of your tribe member's stupid actions.

That is provided that the stupid actions are not ordered by your tribe head.

So, find out what happened and bring them here by tomorrow, same time. Or else, I will meet the other tribes and show them my explosives and see if they would dig information regarding this and tell me why you guys killed her tribe.

And I would like your family heirloom brought to me as well."

With that the meeting is over, Sam and Watt took off on their hover boards and zoomed away.
