Sam is currently shaking the cocktail shaker while looking at the information on the counter. Sia is looking at him with her hands supporting her chin.

Soon, he was done and he poured it in the crystal glass. When the cocktail was poured there are three colors, in fact it is three layers of drink one up on another that stayed like that without mixing.

He didn't even take a look at it and studied all the information he had.

The next guy they are going to meet is actually a mercenary. His name is Sark.

He doesn't have a particular organization he was working for. In fact, he is more like a mercenary for mercenary organizations. They hire him for temporary missions.

That is why, Sia said he might even be an easiest hire for him. But currently he is in trouble as he messed with a family and fell in love with that girl. It is actually a demon family and the woman could be said to be a demon princess.

He is currently struggling to get her from their family while escaping the family pursuits. It was a large cat and mouse game and it has been happening for around three months. The family head is an Astral Plane Transcendent stage cultivator and this guy is Astral Plane Pre-transcendent stage cultivator at late stage. Otherwise, he would have stormed the whole family down.

And the worst thing is one of the most despised kind in the eyes of demons. An offspring of a lesser demon and a normal human.

He is just a result of one night's bestial pleasure and that resulted in his mother's death. From them on, he despises demons the only demon he ever loved is this woman.

This all looked like some movie story for Sam and he doesn't know whether he is lucky, but every time he decided to recruit someone, he is finding them in a time of need. If this is just luck, it seems like he is not as unlucky as he thought he was.

He got all the information he needed and said.

"I will leave for now. I need to find those guys and make them stop it. You better get ready for some sheer annoyance, because you are not going to like their treatment for getting this. At least one of them will make it clear." Sam said as he pointed at the cocktail and left.

He returned to the residence and used a communication device to call them back.

"You guys all lost."

"What? Why?" As expected, the Saber Monarch has the largest reaction.

"Your new colleague beat you all to it. " The three of them were stunned. The calmest of them all, the five elemental King is also showing this expression of surprise which surprised Sam in reverse.

"Anyway, get ready and do what you have to do in the next three days. We will be leaving by then."

With that meeting ended and after three days, they all gathered together in the residence.

"Meet the new addition to our team."

Sam said as he opened the door. Sia and Gran both walked in, but they didn't wear any disguises. This made the rest of the team shocked. Sam couldn't help but chuckle at their reactions. But he didn't give them any time to get a clarity just for the fun of it and rushed them into the dimensional drfiter, before all of them disappeared from the spot.

They reappeared in the middle of the mountain range.

"Well, one of our new teammates said that this place is perfect for our camp. So, we are going to stay here. And by the way, welcome to Azure mountain Planet in Blood demonic realm.

The beautiful azure mountain you can see far away is the home for the Azure Blood demon family which is the target of our target.

He is in love with the princess of that family and is trying not to get caught by that family but also to create enough chaos to catch that girl and escape. So, for the next few days, your duty is to scout around the area and find a way to catch him. Move in teams of two.

Sia and Gran, one of you wear a disguise and separate, join with some one other person and don't stay together. You can be a perfect trump card.

And since you guys are in odd number, one of you can join me."

"Boss, I would join you."

The Saber monarch was the first one to raise his hand. There are two reasons for that. First one is Sam really knew how to enjoy himself. He will definitely go to get the best food and drinks in the surroundings. And the second one is, he doesn't have to pay for himself if he goes with Sam. Sam is filthy rich.

So, disgustingly rich. He wouldn't even feel a pinch if he took care of all Saber Monarch's expressions. But gran who just finished her disguise dragged him and said.

"You are with me."

Agar and Five elemental King went together, leaving Sam and Sia together.

"I guess you are stuck with me. Let's go. We will meet here at evening."

With that Sam and Sia moved towards the Azure Mountain range. The mountain is full of Azure soil rich in lightning elemental energy. The Azure blood demons has literal Azure blood and they all have lightning elemental affinity and some of them even has more.

The whole mountain range is one big city and the family took the residence on the very top of a mountain.

The city looked more like a tourist spot than an actual city itself.

Most of the residences are made from the Azure stones that are available in the mountain range.

The first thing Sam did is to go to the restaurant with most rush. The blood demons are not really that different from humans in terms of apperance. They have fangs and their skin is a bit different and they are not exactly unfriendly or despised by other races.

They are just like humans or any other race, except they have this unnatural pride that comes with no grounds whatsoever.

Sam could clearly see this in the restaurant they were in. He saw a human waiter who is serving busily and called him before placing the order.

"We are new visitors here, what is the situation of the city?"

"Nothing much. The Azure blood demon family rules is and the rest are ruled by them within in." He said blandly.

"Well, anything interesting happening with the Azure Blood demon family?"

Sam asked once again as he placed a spatial ring on the table. The waiter looked around and slipped the ring and checked the contents before saying.

"Sark is pissing them off more than they made it public. Yesterday, I overheard that, there is an attack on the south side at the foot of the mountain, where the family had a mine. Sark is causing trouble there at the moment."

"Thanks, now bring the order as fast as you can and I might give you a decent tip."

After the waiter left, Sia said.

"You are quite good at this."

"Of course, don't tell me you don't know this trick. You are a bartender yourself, I am pretty sure that you got a lot of information from the customers without them even telling it you directly. That is the main flaw of the people, they don't care much about the waiters and thus makes it easier for an information slip.

But I am sure, as long as the basic information is concerned, a waiter would have more of it than a professional information seller.

Now, finish the meal, we have to go to the mines and find traces."

After finishing the meal and leaving a decent tip and a communication token with the waiter, Sam left along with Sia to the south of the city and used the south gate to move towards the foot of the mountain.

The forest of the mountain is lush and rich and many people are coming out to hunt but as they went downwards, there are less and less people and soon they understood why. Apart from the mine, the rest of the area is a bit of a wasteland.

It is not exactly a great place to hunt or explore as there are barely any trees and even the few people that went in that route are going to a specific village that is situated far away.

Sam and Sia secretely roamed in the surroundings of the mine. The security is tight, but there are some clear traces of battle and a lot of tunnels seemed to have collapsed. A lot of earth elemental users are trying to restore the tunnels, Sark clearly came here and he did quite some damage. There would be no mining for quite some time and this will definitely impact the family.

But apart from that, there are barely any traces. But there is one thing that Sia found which gave them some information which might help them.

(A/N: As I said in the announcement yesterday. My laptop crashed and it wasn't fixed yet. All my mass release chapters were in it, so for today, I had to rewrite everything and hence the delay and the mistakes in grammar as I was in a rush. Bear with it for today and from tomorrow I will look for a proper alternative even if my laptop is not fixed. Thank you. for understanding)
