Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

The Black Ghost members made their move, blocked the entire street, and didn't let anybody in. Most of them are still in the initial disguise they used for the mission in this city, so most people particularly commoners, didn't recognize them being the Black Ghost members.

The administrators knew about it though and when they were about to make contact with the Black Ghost members and ask about the current situation, they were just shut down with the same warning Markan gave.

They didn't dare stay there any longer and left.

That day, Sam and the team stayed within the ring and started interrogating every officer.

Some of them are low-level administrators of the Black Ghosts and they are actually duplicates, so there is no use in interrogating them much. So, they were just captured with a set of special shackles and were put away in Sam's chessboard.

Meanwhile, the only person that could give them information, the Deputy is trying to chant again and again, but as soon as the energy that should have gathered to aid in his suicide didn't come and every time there is a movement in energy, it was being shut down by that disc which could diffuse the energy.

With this Markan started his interrogation.

"Please, just kill me. I knew I screwed up. But just kill me and be done with it."

He begged Markan, but they were all futile. Markan didn't have any thoughts of leaving him alone or even killing him for that matter, he would be part of the evidence he is going to use against his arch-enemy who is currently ruling the Black Ghosts in his stead.

So, he made this guy sign the Cursed truth scroll and made him forcefully sign it, before asking the questions.

"So, why did you betray the Black Ghosts and join hands with that bastard to create this parallel racket?"

"I…" The captive wanted to open his mouth, but he felt a soul-searing pain in his head making him shut down.

"The pain you are going through now, is because of a curse, as long as you don't tell me the truth, you wouldn't be able to get rid of it. So, be wise and tell me the truth."

"I…"

He tried to resist, but he felt so much pain that he couldn't even find the strength to voice it out. He gritted his teeth and tried to endure, the more he tried the harder it got. So, after an hour, he decided to come clean.

"That is a new record. He managed to keep it in for an hour, I will do a leaderboard and see how everyone else does in this investigation." Sam thought to himself as he looked at the investigation process from inside the divine dimension.

"I only joined this because of the greed. I wanted more resources. In the previous generation, I am a successor prospect, when I was seventeen, I was selected because of my talent. I felt honored and proud, but as the time passed and when it really mattered, I wasn't able to surpass my peers and was left behind in the dust.

So, all the glory and resources I had were gone. I wanted them back, but there is no way I could get them from Black Ghost, since this new leader came, he managed to make this possible. Since we cannot directly get them from Black Ghost, we decided to use Black Ghost to get them from elsewhere. It is just that, nothing more, nothing less. At least for me.

But if I knew you were alive, I wouldn't have dared to join him. He reassured us many times that you were dealt with. He said that you were gone. But here you are. The Nightmare that wouldn't leave us alone has manifested in front of us."

Seeing the fear in his eyes, the rest of the teammates were really surprised. They didn't expect that Markan would have such an influence. To make them fear him that much to the point they are committing suicide just in his presence said a lot about him.

Markan knocked the guy out and threw him into the chessboard. They recorded the confession of others, all the employees and workers of this parallel organization, and locked the whole thing down, the Black Ghost members were given the authority.

With that, they got out and the very same day, they went away to the next city, they knew that the news will spread soon enough as it is impossible for them to lock down the whole city, so they decided to move faster and the best way is to use the Dimensional drifter. As for the expenses of the travel, they used the loot they got from the underground ring.

They went to the next city and immediately Markan used the Hexagram Summon, before the merchants even left the first city, they already took down the racket in the second city and even moved to the third city.

In the next three days, before the word got popular and anyone could completely believe it, they are done with every city where the racket is established on this planet and they just left to another planet and continued their spree.

The only reason it is succeeding is that they are moving faster than the information. The administrators of the city stayed mute since they learned that it is the personal beef between the members of the Black Ghosts, they didn't dare interfere with the spread of information.

That contributed to the limited spread of the information which is highly beneficial to them.

The interrogation went smoothly for the first three weeks, but by the fourth week, the leak already happened. The administrators that came from the Black Ghost tried to escape hurriedly and some of them even succeeded.

They couldn't catch as many people as they wanted to.

They still managed to stop some. They captured some people right in the dens, some they had to chase a bit and some just committed suicide without even thinking of escaping.

None of these scenarios came as surprise to them and like that the first month in their conquest completely passed.

It could be considered a grand success.

By now, they suddenly stopped going to the city after city, because they knew the news must have reached the ears of the Grand Elders and they would be trying to summon Markan back to their headquarters.

So, they waited in their last location for them to come.

Soon, the Enforcement team directly under the command of the Grand Elders came there and met with Markan. The leader of the team looked at Markan's changed face with a frown and whipped out his badge before saying.

"Leader of the Enforcement Squad-III. I would like you to verify your identity as Markan."

Markan stood in attention and replied back.

"I would like to use my personal seal to identify myself."

The enforcer nodded and Markan performed his personal seal once again. The Enforcer looked at his badge which showed Markan's name and then only his frown relaxed a bit.

He and the rest of the enforcement team bowed immediately.

"Greetings to Lord Markan."

Markan gestured them to stand and said.

"I know you are confused about my face, but I don't have time to explain it to you guys. I would like to return to the Headquarters. I need to speak with the Grand Elders."

"As you wish, Lord Markan. Welcome back to your home."

Markan just nodded and they all made their move. They went to the headquarters by that night and Markan didn't waste any time resting and idling.

He directly made his way towards the chamber of the Grand Elders and the enforcers that escorted him already gave the information.

But when he entered the large hall where the Grand elders were all seated, there is one person standing in front of them. A young man with a crooked smile is talking to them and when he entered the hall, he became silent and looked at Markan with a vicious light in his eyes.

He really wanted to jump and kill Markan right there and then.

He had an attire similar to that of Other Black Ghosts, but it is a bit different as it has golden borders at the hem and there is a golden line on the left side of his chest.

The golden line is the indication of his status as the lord and the young man couldn't help himself but show it off to Markan.

But when he saw the look of indifference and disregard in Markan's eyes who is walking with full confidence as always, made him want to rip that face-off. He couldn't even hide his killing intent.

"Markan greets the Grand Elders."

The Grand Elders just looked at him and Markan performed his seal once again, all the Elders who had a small badge on the table in front of them had their badges glowing and then only their frown relaxed a bit.
