Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

"We need to get out of here. The reinforcements from the two cities will come if we don't leave."

The woman said in a hoarse tone. Her eyes are telling she is still anxious.

Sam couldn't fathom what made a genius like her come to this. And the bruises on her body told him that it was more of an emotional and mental situation.

"I am sorry, Ma'am. We know that you are anxious, but there is a problem here."

"What is it?"

"We are not here to leave. We are here to handover the city to the Fiend tribe and you will be handed over along with the city. As for the reinforcements from the two cities, we are actually counting on it, rather than feeling scared about it."

"You are crazy. Do you know the people that are in charge of the two cities? Do you think that they let this little prick take over the city without any contingency? He is but a Peak-stage pre-transcendent cultivator, how can he even be qualified to be the lord of the city. On this planet at least, the bare minimum qualification is to be a transcendent cultivator of the Astral Plane.

The only reason he took the helm is because the other cities are in charge of this city. He is only here to piss the Fiend tribe off." The woman explained.

"Shut up you whore." *BAM*

The young lord cursed and Noah stomped him in the face making him shut up.

"I know what you are worried about. But we prepared for this. Just let them come. If my estimation is right, the rear troops would already be here in an hour.

First you go and freshen up."

Sam said and left the room. Noah helped her up while Kumar took care of the young lord.

They left him alive because Sam thought that he might be worth a lot more when he was alive for the Fiend tribe.

While Kumar and Noah are taking care of two different guests in two different ways, Sam went out into the streets. He called for the remaining administrators that are of low level and the ones that the young lord didn't seem worthy to even fight.

"I want all of you guys to get out there and make announcements all over the cities and bring me the best merchant group you can find. The one that didn't have anything to do with the Myriad Beast sect and the one that has enough background and network.

I want them here and I want them fast. The one who does the job properly dies the latest. Any funny Ideas, then do remember that I am not exactly merciful. I am really disappointed by your city anyway. So, I might just kill you out of annoyance if you even think of doing anything other than what I told you to."

The guys left and half an hour later, the whole city is in turmoil. Everyone wanted to get out of the city and when they noticed that there are no guards, they immediately escaped, they knew that trouble would be coming, so they didn't want to get in the mess.

While everyone is leaving, Sam met with one merchant group led by a young man. He is a Half-Dark Elf.

Sam looked at him in surprise. He met with Dark elves, he met with elves and half elves, but Half dark elves is a first.

The young man looked at Sam and said.

"I am really surprised that a person with your cultivation took down the city?"

"Really? Why?"

"I don't know, I thought that some bigshot would have sneaked and snapped here, but it seems like the planning must be much more difficult than I thought. Anyway, why do you want to meet me."

"I want you to go to the Water Crystal City to inform the Fiend tribe about the city. Tell them, that Sam, Noah and Kumar sacked the city and are defending against the other two cities' reinforcements."

"I can do that. But what is in it for me."

"I will sell you something."

Sam said with a smile. The Elven merchant chuckled and said.

"Sell? I thought when someone is asking for favors, they would buy things, not sell."

"After you see this, you would be willing to buy it."

With that he took out a scroll and gave it to the merchant along with a Jar of wine.

The merchant saw this and then tasted the wine and raised his eyebrows in surprise. That was his reaction even after trying so hard to control himself.

"You wouldn't be able to find the recipe even if you travelled all the realms and with the amount of outside traffic here, you would be able earn a lot."

"How much?" The Merchant asked with a smile…

After fifteen minutes, the business deal was signed.

"By the way, you can give out the word our sacking the city to others with no restraint. All I want is for the news to reach the Water Crystal city by late afternoon."

"I can do that. Don't worry. They would get the word earlier than that."

"Thanks. I have another job if you would like to take it." Sam said and the group leader looked at him curiously.

"I want you to leak this information too but to the Myriad Beast sect members." With that Sam gave a scroll and the merchant group leader was stunned.

"Are you sure you want to do this? That woman is a crazy psychopath."

"I am not too bad in that field myself. It doesn't matter. I want her to know about this. But in a subtle manner. It shouldn't be like a large announcement like I was bragging. Just some information that was slipped by unintentionally."

"A trap?"

"Something along the lines."

"I will do it. It is just spreading rumors and Merchants are good at that."

With that, the merchant group left.

Sam then shifted his focus to a different issue. He took up a room and started setting up equipment. Soon Noah and Kumar joined him and a lot of crystal screens were displayed in the room.

This is the surveillance of the pathways on the two sides and on the rear side, they already see some people making their way towards the City.

"It is over a radius of two dozen kilometers. Very impressive. How did you make this stuff."

Noah asked as she checked different screens.

"That is what I do. As for how, I don't even know. It just comes to me.But for this time, I stretched a little thin. All my surveillance equipment is up to cover the whole radius under the field. Even if they use the forests and the mountain mazes, we would be able to locate them."

"Why go so deep? This would be easier for us. The traps are perfect. I don't think they would be skilled enough to dodge them."

"I am not setting this up with the first wave. I am thinking of the things that would come after we deal with the first wave."

They both nodded, but Noah suddenly asked.

"Do you think our plan will work? I mean, even if the Fiend tribe needs to take this city on, they wouldn't be able to do it unless they cross the front and rear cities. The defense there is tight. Otherwise, the most they could do is send some people to defend this city at the most."

"Don't worry. This will work. Since they would receive the message, the first thing they would do is try to verify it. I already sent the recording crystals and the testimony of that woman. And just in case, something else happens, I asked the person who is helping us to do a little something.

Along with that I also let the information about our endevors in the farm town spread. So, either the Fiend tribe sends the people, takes advantage of the fact that we lured some people from the two cities and attack them from the other side, or that woman from the Myriad beast sect comes and tries to deal with us to die here forcing the higher ups to act since their core disciple came out in the open.

Either way, we would escalate this war now.

And if our luck is good, both things will happen.

If the fiend tribe really doesn't care about this and tries to hide from this, our little merchant group will do something that would make them act.

Don't worry. As long as we can keep ourselves safe, it would be okay."

He then went out and called the administrators.

"Tell all the merchants to leave the city if they want to, even the civilians are welcome to do that. But if they want to stay, tell them to retreat into the City hall grounds. Tell them to stay completely still here without causing any trouble.

Anyone who wants to be a hero and wants to bring justice to their former ruler will die."
