Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

The next day after Sam was done with making his 'Gift'.

In the study of General Spark's Mansion.

General is sitting there sorting out some paperwork for his military recruits and the budget.

While he was sitting at his desk and looking at the scrolls, he came across the results of their investigation towards Sam's case.

Even though he is from the Military and in charge of border security and their training, he is deeply involved in the investigation of Sam's case.

He knew better than anyone that is definitely not a person who is projected by the emperor. Sam is so prideful that if he wants something he would rather kill the party and take it out openly, but the Emperor actually reported that Sam stole something from the prince and killed numerous guards who tried to stop him and apart from that he also said that he tried to sexually assault the princess as he tried to kidnap her when he was fleeing.

But he wasn't able to because of the pursuit of the soldiers and the imperial guard.

But General Spark didn't believe a single thing that was in the report.

He believed one thing though and that is Sam must have pissed off the emperor big time.

Since he has a beef with Sam and for some reason, General Mercury doesn't want to lead the investigation of this case, so he got the case for himself.

But there is no substantial development. He has been searching for two months and there are no positive results.

He is starting to think that Sam is not in southern star dukedom and that is if he is really still in the Orion empire.

But suddenly, he sensed something moving above him and when he looked up he saw there was a glass jar on top of the wooden beam. But before he could make sense of what is it, he saw a bright light coming from the window on his right.

The bright green light was so blinding to his eye that he felt his eyes burn as soon as he saw it.

At this moment, all the people in the southern star city saw a bright green light coming towards the city.

Some are marveled and in awe with the majestic sight but the powerful people and the experts have a completely different reaction, they can sense the danger and threat that light beam can do to them.

This all happened in an instant.

The person who is the target of the light beam, General Spark could also sense the threat as the second strongest person in the city.

But it is light, can some be faster than a light beam?

General felt his whole-body burn, the Armor started melting and soon his flesh started burning making most of his muscle fibers expose.

He could feel that he could die at any moment, but before that happened, the light beam disappeared suddenly and he fell backward in pain.

All of this happened in a fraction of a second.

As the man fell down, he saw the glass jar he noticed earlier drop on him.

He knew that whatever the liquid that was inside the jar is not exactly a good thing and he has a vague hunch on who did this to him.

When the glass jar dropped on him, he noticed that it was open and the liquid started entering his body.

He could feel the pain of his body burning and the liquid added made it much worse and his consciousness slowly slipped away.

Within two minutes, many bigshots started moving towards General Spark's residence and a squad of people started moving towards the direction from where the light beam came.

When the Duke entered the General's residence, he saw a half-burnt body and a cracked empty glass jar with some blood around him.

He quickly checked and sighed in relief when he found that he is still alive.

Soon, he was shifted to the bedroom carefully without waking him up and the tower head of the pharmaceutical tower, the best potion master, and also the healer from the Duke mansion all came to take a look at that person.

At the same time, the squad who was led by the deputy general himself are all shocked when they saw what was left in the place of the hill.

The whole hill disappeared from the place, leaving a huge pit spreading over many yards of the forest. And in place of the hill, there is a letter left.

He picked the letter and immediately brought that to the General's residence. And by the time he arrived there, there is something that he didn't expect at all.

The healers and all the other experts are in extreme panic.

He handed the letter over to the Duke and then walked towards a person who seemed to be the assistant of one of the healers and asked about the situation.

"The upper body was completely burnt and a weird liquid was spilled on the wounds.

The healers, potion master, and even the poison masters weren't able to fully identify the liquid.

All they could find are some traces of the venoms from some beasts and they suspect that the poison is concocted from the venoms of many Level 4 creatures.

But they weren't able to do much since they weren't able to find the exact proportions and the nature of the poison.

They are afraid that healing the burn before curing the poison will leave any serious after effect."

Before Deputy General could ask more, he was shocked by Duke's action, who suddenly released his aura in extreme agitation, at the same time, he dropped the letter.

The Deputy general picked the letter and was shocked to see the contents.

"Good day to whoever that is reading this letter.

This message is for the honorable General Spark and for the Duke of the Southern Star.

I am Sam. Yes, the same person who is the wanted all over the Empire and also the same person who is supposed to be the one person who stole from the prince, who kidnapped the princess with the intention to sexually assault her.

I am writing this letter because I just wanted to say that I honored my words to General Spark.

And at the same time, it is to send a message.

First, let me clarify one thing. I am not going to plead that I am innocent, or anything else about how the Emperor wanted to frame me.

But the one thing I would do love to say is that this is my declaration of war, against the emperor of the Orion.

From today onwards, I am going to start a war against the Orion Empire and since I am already a wanted Criminal, I would behave like one.

For one month, I am giving a month for all the officials and citizens in the empire and anyone who is still in my pursuit is going to be my enemies no matter who they are.

This is between me and the Emperor and if you don't involve in this, I will not involve you too and in a month if I see a person who is interested in me, I will involve them too.

As for the situation of the General. He is going to die and the more you try to save him the faster you would die. So, I would ask you to not waste much effort and increase his pain.

-     Sam."

When he finished the letter, Deputy felt his heart turn cold. He knew Sam. In fact, he saw him up close, tearing down regiments and building a battalion that could rival a regiment. He knew how prideful that guy is and for a young man with those achievements, he has every reason to be that prideful and arrogant.

He was rather surprised that Sam showed no retaliation at all, but now that he showed the retaliation, he was stunned and now he was a bit afraid. He doesn't know how to react at all.

For the next two days, there were numerous events happening across the city.

There are several letters which are been falling over from the sky thrown down by the birds all over the Southern Star territory with the same message that was written in Sam's letter to the Duke.

The whole Dukedom is in panic mode.

Apart from that something even worse happened to General Spark.

They took two days to find the correct mixture of poison and after that, they took one more day to create an antidote, and then they healed him normally.

Until then, they kept him stabilized with adequate treatment.

But the whole new problem started after that.

The General's internal organs started falling apart one after another. There are rotting one after another. They tried to heal it and for some time, they can regenerate the organ but the next attack started happening faster.

After the first attack on his lungs, the second attack happened two hours later, but after they healed him, the next attack happened in one hour and forty minutes.

The same thing happened with his liver, abdomen, intestine.

What made it even worse is that they noticed after six hours, his body started rotting starting from the bone marrow and the muscle fibers.

They were afraid of healing him as they knew that they would only speed up the next attack.

They knew that something passed their eye and they don't know what it is. But one thing they know is that this is the cruelest killing method they have ever seen.

Duke, Deputy, and everyone who knew who did that and why he targeted the General is thinking only one thing.

The most the General did to Sam is oppressing using his authority unreasonably and threatened or thought of killing Sam's subordinate Watt. And yet his revenge is so cruel that even though Sam had a chance to kill the General with a single light beam, he is using this method to kill him.

After four days of this constant torture, the Healers saw something they didn't see before and that is the vitality they are producing with the help of the Light elemental energy stopped directing towards the General's internal organs and is being absorbed by some foreign matter that stayed in the blood.

Then only they noticed that there is something else that entered the General's body.

On that day, another letter arrived at the house of General.

"You should have seen it by now, I advise you to not let anyone touch any bodily fluids or fleshly contact with the General, do not touch any of his wounds, and stop healing him.

Because, the more you heal, the more torture he would go through and if you come into contact with any bodily fluids or the flesh, you would also go through what the General is going through and you will be the transporter of a new plague to the kingdom, as I said before, the commoners and all the officials are not my enemies, at least not yet.

But I would say that all you leave this empire for your own good.

_ Sam."
