Chapter 750: Demonstration
Rajan. The father of Ramya, the girl Raunak fell in love with.
Rajan is currently sitting in his private office where he is trying to go through the video once again. Sam is moving like he owned the cave and treated the whole group like they are little kids, he could see the claws doing the work.
The situation is extremely one-sided. At least until there are thirty members in the team, they had a chance to do something to him.
But once Sam got hang of it, he kicked everyone's ass.
After looking at it many times, he couldn't help but feel angry. This is a blatant provocation. A provocation right to his face. Sam is directly asking him what he would do and what he could about this.
He recently heard about the continuous deaths of the officials. But when he learned that Ragad is completely alright, he relaxed a bit and thought that Sam doesn't have the balls to do anything to a direct member of faction 1.
But it seems like the other party just focused on a different target.
Soon, he got the news that the team leader has woken up. So he went there to ask about the details.
"I don't know anything about him. He is in that cloaked dress from start to finish. He is completely unfazed. It is as if killing us is just like breathing air to him. Even the soldiers in military units that are seasoned in the killing wouldn't be this unfeeling.
He is like a cold-blooded person. And those eyes. There is not a single fluctuation of emotions in those eyes even when he is tormenting the team members. He just watched them scream, groan, writhe in pain as if he is watching nothing."
As he spoke, his voice was shaking and it got worse. One has to wonder how much he feared Sam's actions.
The more he thought about it, the more the thought is eating his brain away.
He couldn't keep his composure.
As Rajan looked at the team leader who used to be one of the most competent soldiers, he couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment. But he is also a bit conflicted about his next move. He has many people watching him.
If he moved the transcendent stage cultivators casually, he would be noted down and get unwanted attention from the unwanted people.
That is the reason he sent the Pre-transcendent team. The best team in fact. There are some cases, where they managed to take down initial stage Transcendent stage cultivators with proper ambush and planning.
But Sam just came in slaughtered them all.
It seems like he kicked a really solid plate this time.
As he was thinking about what to do with this team leader, he felt an energy fluctuation.
He looked at the team leader, who is holding his chest tightly as he tried hard to breathe.
"Call a healer. Quick."
Rajan ordered the attendant, but soon he couldn't feel any signs of life from Raunak.
*Boom*
Then came a small explosion that created a hole in the team leader's chest. The rib cage was destroyed and inside, the lungs and the heart are sliced neatly into pieces and there is a lump of metallic thread inside rolled around a bone, completely knotted.
He pulled that lump of string out only to see a small metal plate inside. He looked at the metal plate with words written on it.
'FUCK YOU'
Those are the words written on it.
As soon as he read those words, the atmosphere in the room changed a lot. The spiritual energy riled up and the attendants couldn't help but feel the pressure and spit out the blood.
It took a while for him to calm down.
He left his room.
At this moment, he got a glimpse of his daughter who is making herself busy with something. He got angrier in an instant and wanted to do something.
He walked to his room and asked his attendant to call for someone else.
By evening someone came and that person also has cloaked clothes, but this time he has blood red-cloaked clothes.
Rajan threw a wooden token onto the table and the guy that came just took the token and left.
Ramya who came at this moment looked at the blood red-cloaked guy who is leaving and clenched her fists.
She looked at Rajan and said.
"If you break the agreement, I wouldn't care if you are my father. I would just go to the King or Queen's court to make you pay."
With that, she stormed out.
This made the already angry old lose it and slam the desk into smithereens before he muttered.
"I will see what you are going to do when I am done with him."
With that, he went out of the estate and went near the elder's estate.
There he met with the elders and made some preparations.
No one knew what he has done. He even asked the administrators to keep the thing on the down low.
While Rajan is plotting on what to do to kill Sam and that supposed person in the background all the while breaking Raunak's spirit, Sam is currently in a meeting with a human and an elf.
They are in a military uniform sitting in Sam's makeshift office beside Raunak's office.
"We are from the Star One Military unit. We are here to discuss the deal of the coconut biscuits."
The one who spoke is the human, not the elf. Even when Sam asked them to take a seat, only the human took the seat, the elf didn't take the seat at all and stood straight clearly showing their rankings.
It is new for Sam.
"I was told you are coming. Do you want to take the tour around the factory first? We can talk about the price later."
"Sure."
Sam took them to the factory where the shadows are working to produce the biscuits. One place is for drying the coconut, the second one is for grating the dried coconut, then the flour preparation, and finally the last place where the cookies are baked in a large stone oven.
After the small tour was over, Sam said.
"I couldn't hire the workers from the city, so I have to make do with these shadows."
"Shadow necromancy and using it for making food is really a pity." The human said
"Well, it wouldn't be long. Since you guys are going to take over, I can put the shadows back to their proper use."
"So, shall we discuss the price?"
"How much do you want to offer?"
"A half-a-billion seems like a fair price."
"Lets go a bit higher, Shall we?"
"Six hundred?"
"Eight hundred."
"But that is just a recipe. Do you really think it is worth it?"
"It is not about the recipe. The land itself is a bit expensive and the construction took a lot out of me. You must have heard, but I couldn't hire any workers or any other construction company to do the construction. I had to finish the construction all by myself from the scratch.
It is not exactly a pleasant feeling, but I still held my end of the deal. Apart from that, the recipe itself has too many effects that could help the elves. I might be human, but I have an elf helping with the tasting.
A liquor recipe can go for a billion, don't tell me that this is not worth it. If it is not for the effects, don't tell me you are here just for its taste."
"Seven fifty. That's as high as we can get."
"Deal."
They shook the hands.
"I noticed that you said you built the whole factory yourself. How is that possible? Even the stones seem like they are a bit different."
"It's because of creation from a subordinate of mine. It helps in construction. In fact, it is faster than any of the traditional construction methods."
"Can we see?"
"Why not?"
Sam led them out and he started mixing some cement and showed the process. After joining two rocks and pouring a concrete slab. He spoke.
"If you would stay for the night, you can see the results."
"We would wait."
"Then let us eat something. I don't cook for others very often, it might be your lucky day."
Sam then led them and started grilling steaks and made some mashed potato.
He even took some liquors for their taste and they had a pleasant dinner in which even Raunak joined.
They talked about a lot of things.
"I would like to ask something if you don't mind," Sam said as they enjoyed the meal.
"Please do."
"Do you buy weapons?"
"Weapons? Don't you know that it is illegal for others to sell weapons? We can only buy weapons from the military armory."
"Then what about special weapons? Things that are not available in the armory."
"Depends on how special the weapon is. But even then, it would be hard for you to get the approval to sell the weapons, you can sell designs though."
"Oh, thanks for the information."
Then the whole table fell silent and they went back to enjoying the food as if nothing happened.
