Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 1082 - Chess Pieces



The battle lasted for fifteen minutes.

At this moment, Saber Monarch is currently standing in the middle of a large mess while panting as the two assassins are on verge of death with a bunch of scars on their bodies still rolling around.

The reason why he didn't kill them is that in the middle of these fifteen minutes, Sam changed his mind after watching their battle techniques and decided to take them in.

He decided to throw them into the chessboard but not before teaching them a proper lesson.

So, Saber Monarch was in charge of the lesson.

Sam came out, gave them some basic first aid to avoid any critical condition that might come, and then threw them into the chessboard.

"But boss, wouldn't it take longer for us to get information?"

"It is not a problem. We need to see the operations too and most assassins no matter how high their status is wouldn't be in on the information regarding the operations of the organizations, they would mostly act as tools.

So, the information we get from the manager will be most useful and the information from assassinations is not that needed.

We will wait for more people to come and see how they operate while scouting some members into my own organization. Because of the recent expansion, the chessboard became a bit empty. I only have some emergency soldiers left."

Night ghost nodded at Sam's reply.

They stayed for the rest of the day and went back to the inn.

Sam visited the manager at the night and pretended to be angry.

"Why is he back to his room after going to the forest?"

The Manager's face didn't look as good as last time. He seems to be a bit frustrated and said.

"I am sorry, my people didn't come back and there is no response from them. We don't know whether they are alive or dead. According to the protocol we need to wait for a proper response, but since there is none, we would need to wait for another day, before proceeding assuming they are dead.

So, I will give you a response by tomorrow."

"Can you not finish him off in the inn?"

"We have our rules. We cannot harm anyone who is staying within our inn or any of our establishments and we cannot let anyone else harm them. This is the rule of our organization. So, you have to wait for him to go out."

"Okay then, he will be going out tomorrow night. Make sure you finish him off. Here is the extra money for the increment."

With that, he gave the money and left in frustration.

The next day Saber Monarch left the city once again and this time he went to a different forest.

And the organization increased the people they sent, there are three people who came to kill and one of them is an archer.

At first, Archer made the attack as the two assassins slowly neared him wanting to finish him.

This time, Sam let him kill one assassin and kept the archer and the other assassin on the chessboard.

Sam felt a bit weird with this.

Five Initial Transcendent cultivators are not a small resource. No matter how big an organization they are targeting at the current time, they are bound to feel the pinch. So, Sam is extremely keen on seeing how the manager reacts.

As for the information from the assassin, as he predicted it is nothing important. There is not much information regarding the organization and from the looks of it, the memories are of a person who is a normal solo cultivator.

It seems like he joined the organization from outside, instead of being nurtured.

The latest memory of him is that he received a message from a restaurant in the neighboring city and he came here to kill Saber Monarch as per the instructions.

The next morning Saber Monarch came back to the inn but this time, he and Sam made a play in the inn's restaurant as if Saber Monarch already knew but is only looking for the right moment.

Sam directly went to the manager and yelled at him.

"I gave you two billion and two hundred million spirit stones.

Do you know how much that is? He already had suspicions about me and now he is ready to pounce on me the moment I show a little weakness.

My cultivation is not enough to deal with him at the moment. 

Do you understand what I am saying? I want him dead right now."

The Manager looked at Sam, there is a clear trace of frustration on his face. He is definitely more frustrated than Sam. But he couldn't burst out. He is a businessman and Sam is a customer he should act according to the rules.

"We will finish him off today. You don't have to worry. But you need to pay the increment."

Sam just threw the spatial ring and said.

"I need you to finish him off immediately. If push comes to shove and he kills me, that means you broke the contract. You should know better than anyone else, what it is that means to break a contract on the Devil Scroll."

With that, Sam slammed the door and left the place.

The manager is frustrated. Out of the five people he sent in the two days, only one of them is confirmed dead.

When the assassins are dead the manager who assigned the mission will know because of a special token the assassins leave at the manager.

It will break as soon as they die.

But only one person dying and the remaining four disappearing has never happened before.

He doesn't know how to proceed further and after some deep thought, he could only grit his teeth and use a special token.

Since the client doesn't have time, he has to take some extreme measures.

This is a special communication token to contact one of the elite assassins that could only be used under special circumstances.

"Number 1240. I am the manager of your branch. There is an emergency, I want you to come to the inn by afternoon."

"1240 reporting. Will be there at the inn in two hours."

The manager took a deep breath and called for Sam once again.

"What else do you want? Do you need more money or did you call me here to cancel the contract?"

"The mission will be completed tonight. But I want you to lure that guy out. As I said, we cannot let our guests be hurt when they are in the inn. That is against our policy."

"Fuck your policy. Just go in there and kill him."

"Please understand my trouble. I would definitely kill him tonight. Even if some mishap occurs which wouldn't I will give you security from that guy."

"So, you are not confident enough to take him down? Is all the reputation you guys have a complete overestimation of your abilities?"

The manager really wanted to slap the shit out of Sam, but he controlled his urge and convinced Sam to agree.

Sam went away and came back after an hour before saying.

"He will be going towards the slums of the city at midnight. He thinks I will be there, go and deal with him."

Sam didn't even wait for the reply and left.

That midnight, the Saber Monarch left the main area of the city and went to the slums particularly to an area where not many people are present.

After reaching that desolate area, he stopped and yelled.

"Come out, already. How long are you going to stay hidden like that?"

As he yelled, a woman came out of hiding. She is a middle-stage Transcendent cultivator. She also wore black but she didn't hide her face.

She is playing with a knife in her hands as she sized him up.

"You have keen senses. Now, where are the people that came to kill you."

"Since I am here alive and kicking, where do you think they are?"

"They are definitely not dead. You only killed one guy. So, be a good boy and tell me where they are, I might let you off easily."

"What if I don't want to?"

As soon as Saber Monarch finished his sentence, he took a step back and took out his saber as he swung it forward.

The Saber met the knife which was being thrust at him by the lady.

Saber Monarch was surprised as he looked at the lady still standing far away. But as he saw her, that image far away slowly disappeared into thin air as if it never existed.

"Hmm, it has been a while since I saw someone see through this. You would be fun to kill."

The woman said as she stepped back.

Saber Monarch was excited and wanted to deal with her, but he controlled the urge and said.

"I really do want to fight you. But too bad, I am not your opponent."

With that, he took out the ice divine dimension crystal and let Paras out before he disappeared from the spot.

Paras held his ax over his shoulders as he looked at the woman.

"So, shall we start?"
