Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam felt that Yodha is his best shot to get out of his situation, but that doesn't mean he can act immediately.

He has to wait for a while to get the best timing to get out of here.

For now, there are no immediate fights for him for the next week. He will be free and peaceful. Since he has some friendship with the attendants, he has some extra privileges of chatting with them.

So, for every chance he got he started sharing some wine and chatting up with the attendants around him.

He asked about many things and most of the time his conversation started with the question, 'what's new?'

This can translate as both things like what's new in the city or around the Arena and what's new with your life. This might seem like a simple wordplay, but it made a world of difference and the meaning doesn't depend on Sam but the person he is talking to.

If that person is too gossipy and wanted to rant here and there, he would take the first question as his and if that person is not that talkative and interested in others, he would just talk about himself.

Sam is okay with either of those.

For the next week, he doesn't have fights. So, he got quite some information regarding the city, the noble scion's and also the disputes that are being fired up in Rana's family.

Rana's family is called the Golden Blaze family, but that Golden blaze is not their last name.

Oddly, enough only some families who have extremely pure bloodline on par with the Imperial families have the last names towards them, and apparently, even though the Golden Blaze family are considered nobility, it was not to the point they have a last name.

Even though, it is surprising Sam didn't feel too much about it.

Anyway, the important thing is that the chaos that has ensued in the Golden Blaze family due to this situation is not something small. All the other noble families are looking at them like Hawks.

Apparently, Rana made visits to all the noble families about opening his own business and he also said they would get an invitation after the place and time are decided.

For him to do this even before he started the business, is clearly indicating them to watch a show from the side and also telling them that he is at loggerheads with the family.

If he is still part of the family, the assistants would have come instead of him personally and he wouldn't be asking for help regarding the place and the construction. His family would have taken care of that.

Apart from that, he also attended a meeting with the family members who embezzled money with his brother and collected back whatever money they took away from the betting section forcefully. He took the rest from the family funds on the pretext that his arena was the one that suffered the reputation loss and he has to amend that himself.

Since the family head is still in shock and dilemma due to Rana's sudden change, he couldn't stop all these and he doesn't even know if he should really stop this.

After taking all the money, Rana visited the large betters and started paying their dues. It is impossible to track every one of them, but he tracked every nobility that ever made a bet since he took charge of the Arena and paid them back even if they didn't suffer too much of a loss.

Some of them got back their bets and even made money, he didn't pay them back, but still made a visit to them to tell them about the situation and asked for an apology.

In fact, he doesn't have to do that. At least to the winners of the bets, but he is deliberately doing that to make trouble for his family.

When the situation turned out like this, the rest of the family couldn't sit still and wanted to pressure him with making things difficult for him by not allowing him to access the family experts for him to start the business.

But to their surprise, it turned out he already hired some experts, some from the family and some from outside and it is almost like he groomed them which showed that he is planning this for a long time.

Sam heard all this in bits and pieces from the staff in dining areas and sometimes near his residence.

After hearing all this, Sam felt like he could use this to his advantage.

Since Rana is confident in making his business a success and has all resources in his hands, it would be easier to gain a profit from him.

And sooner or later, Sam would be out of this place and he would need someone to get resources from this Naga realm, so it is not a bad choice to have him as his dealer in this Realm.

But this is not the time yet, he has to wait until Rana faces some setback or he could get out of the Arena. If he does anything before that, he wouldn't be able to deal with things freely if he is stuck in this place.

So, he waited patiently and the one week passed without any more interesting news,

It is time for Sam's fight once again.

And his fight is always a celebration for the Arena because there is too much revenue compared to other days.

This time, Sam is fighting with the top five Bronze ranked fighters.

And he even gave himself a handicap.

He drew a small square big enough for three to four people to stand and declared loudly.

"I wouldn't come out of this square for the next five minutes and in these five minutes I wouldn't attack as long as you are out of the square, try your luck."

With this arrogant statement, the five Bronze ranked fighters are getting angry and the fight started.

The first ones to attack are the wind element mage and a water element mage, both of them have some decent ranged attacks and tried to attack Sam together.

One is responsible for attacking Sam while the other is responsible for blocking his dodging route.

The remaining three are close-combat fighters and they started surrounding the square waiting to land an attack.

But Sam didn't care, he didn't dodge a single attack. He decided to block it instead. And even his blocking with unorthodox.

He stomped his legs on the stage and they penetrated straight down. Now he is almost ankle-deep into the stage making it hard for him to move.

But he is not trying to make a move, he took out his staff and started spinning it, the spiritual energy in the surroundings is like a chaotic storm.

He didn't use any elemental energy, he just used normal spiritual energy and even controlled the atmospheric spiritual energy to revolve like a tornado, and this time, he made it on an extremely large scale.

The spiritual energy became so concentrated in the tornado that they could it being sucked from all over and revolved with extremely high velocities.

The audience is in awe at the astonishing display. But they cheered within no time. This is the reason they wanted to see Sam's fights, he makes things flashy and does everything in dazzling fashion at the same time trying something new in his every fight.

For the next ten minutes, Sam's tornado and the spiritual energy storm surrounding it, grew bigger and bigger.

And it acted as a perfect defense, they didn't dare to get near Sam because they are afraid that if the spiritual energy storm became unstable, they wouldn't be able to bear the damage and the backlash that would hit all over the stage.

They could die if the impact is significant enough.

So, they are waiting for Sam to exhaust himself and trying to disturb him from afar, but what they didn't see coming is that after ten minutes, the spiritual energy within the storm started to change.

They didn't understand immediately, but they could see the electric arcs appear here and there.

Only Yodha, who looked as relaxed as ever sat there with an understanding and excited smirk.

He could see what others could see because of his keen sensitivity.

As the others also watched what is happening, they got their answers soon enough without a long wait.

The spiritual energy storm slowly started to become bright, and silver-colored electric arcs are growing more and more and they are also rotating along with the condensed spiritual energy and before they knew it.

A large amount of lightning elemental energy was rotating horizontally all over the stage and the people couldn't help but gulp hard when they saw this.

They didn't expect that Sam would use this defensive measure for such an offensive move, it is too destructive and too ruthless, people could die in this easily.

As the tornado expanded, the opponents couldn't defend anymore and got sucked into this. They are being attacked by the electric arcs and now they are nothing but lumps of flesh in the middle of thick electric stream.

Sam stopped the move after five minutes with a bang and the five opponents were thrown away in five different directions and hit the barriers with their charred bodies, the audience could see that they are barely alive.

Even with such a large-scale attack, Sam was able to control his power so much that he wouldn't kill them.

He smirked and waved his hand at the wild cheers of the audience.
