Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 40 - Meeting



Sam is now inside the tower's second floor. Since, it can be used for anything other than the cultivation purposes, he is now using this to make his goods. Right now, he is drawing an inscription circle and the circle is not your normal first rank inscription, rather it is for first rank inscription formation circle.

In the centre of the circle, Sam put a robe which is red in colour with a flaming design. This is the robe for male which he created. He used the Heaven Spirit silk moth which evolved with the fire elemental energy and used that silk to make this robe. The robe is mostly red in colour and the embroidery indicated as if it was burning with flames. He completed the circle and went to the node point. There is also a formation that is laid down in order to support the spiritual energy level to him.

Sam manipulated the spiritual energy and started infusing it to the complex inscription circle. The whole circle lit up and started converging towards the centre. The energy level inside the formation also started depleting as the inscription got closer. Soon, the inscription has completely formed as it appeared on the inside of the robe. By this time, Sam already fell on the floor and panted heavily while sweating profusely. After catching his breath, he stood up and walked towards the robe and then wore it. He then injected his spiritual energy and a transparent hemisphere appeared with him as centre and soon the spiritual energy started to gather towards him.

This is a spirit gathering formation. Sam inscribed this formation onto the robe directly. Actually, some people who are rich enough would buy an array disc and use it in expeditions or battles to increase the rate of energy gathered. But Sam used his research and experiments to inscribe it directly on the robe.

Since, the robe is also made of the Heaven spirit silk of fire elemental energy, it will also provide resistance against fire attacks for some extent along with a defence for the attack up to the level of peak level Acolyte. If he used some defence inscriptions, he can make it defend a Novice level 1 attack. Sam looked at the robe with satisfaction and stored it away.

He came out of the dimension and took a seat in his living room as he sighed and took a big gulp of water. He is really exhausted. This is the day of auction. For the past few days, Sam continuously kept on making clothes and inscriptions. This is auction material he is going to put on sale. The three days he spent on the clothes which is thirty days inside the tower, he made a single dress everyday out of which twenty-eight of them are to auctioned off. The remaining two, well he is a man of his words.

Sam came out of the mansion and looked at the river. He suddenly had an urge to swim. So, he took off his vest and directly jumped into the river and started swimming. After one hour of swimming, he finally felt satisfied and came out. It is already noon. He looked at the bright sun and smiled. The scene looked like it came out of a painting. His handsome face, his tall figure, his chiselled and bare upper body and black hair drenched in river water, the bright sunlight and his equally bright smile. The scene was mesmerizing. He enjoyed the feel for a few moments and walked back towards the Mansion entrance. He changed his clothes and wore the newly made feathered black coat and came outside.

"it is about time." He murmured as he walked towards the city.

Meanwhile in the Artisan tower, the tower head is pacing at the reception as if he was waiting for someone. Kelly stood aside as she looked at her father. Soon, two middle-aged men came with exquisite robes and dignified auras. Both of them have badges with number 2 on it. They both are tower heads of the inscription tower and Formation tower. When they looked at the Artisan tower head pacing nervously, they couldn't help tease.

"Hey, Harold. What happened to you? You are pacing like a dog." The Inscription tower head said as he chuckled.

"Falter, Felix you guys came. Now, that if that little ancestor arrives, we can go." Harold, who is the Artisan tower head replied.

Falter is the formation tower head and Felix, is the Inscription tower head. Since, these guys have more or less same position they are naturally friends and had some dealings.

"Why did you ask us to come all of a sudden?" Felix asked.

"Alfred's son, Albert seemed to be offended Sam. So, he asked me to arrange a surprise meet with Alfred to talk. It is not like you don't know Sam's temper. Just because he was called bastard, he made an artwork out of the kid from the Crimson flame family. This Alfred is arrogant enough in front of us, now his own arrogant son has to provoke this demon.

I am already had some differences with Sam. That is why, I want to mend the relationship. I want you guys to help me. After he comes, accompany me to the Pharmaceutical tower. This is the time when he teaches his apprentice. So, we have to make sure that we catch him at the spot."

"This is okay with me. Let us see, how that arrogant bastard will flaunt his arrogance at a Genius like Sam." Felix said.

"Let us see, how it goes." Falter spoke.

Soon Sam came to the Artisan tower head and looked at the three middle-aged men and looked a little puzzled. He walked towards Harold and spoke.

"Hello. Are the arrangements done?" He directly greeted and asked about the situation. He completely ignored the other two middle-aged men. Harold felt like gloating as he looked at his friends' expressions.

"Sir, Sam. These are Formation tower head Falter and Inscription tower head Felix." He introduced.

Sam looked at them and said. "Hello. I am Sam." His reply was short and onto the point. His voice was calm and collected. He really didn't treat them like seniors at all. Both the elders felt a little awkward as they were completely used to the flowery words from every junior they met. Now, only they felt how it is to meet a really capable one. The people with capability will not act subservient to others.

"Sir Sam, both of them will be accompanying us to the Pharmaceutical tower. At this moment Alfred will be teaching his apprentice or would be supervising the ground floor. So, if you want to surprise him, this will be best time." Harold said. 'Because, that jerk will be tooting his own horn at the newly joined apprentice' He inwardly thought.

"No problem." Sam replied and made his way along with other three tower heads and Kelly also meekly followed after them. She was really curious as how Sam would deal with this. She is also third year in the academy and clearly knew about Albert. When she heard that Albert had offended Sam, she immediately thought that Albert was dead. After a few moments only she realised that with Sam's current prowess it is almost impossible to kill him. When she heard from her father about how Sam wanted to meet Albert's father instead, she was quite surprised and confused. That is why, she is following them to see what he will do.

After a few minutes the group of five came to the Pharmaceutical tower. Now, Sam is wearing all his badges in open. When people saw the three bigshots along with Sam and all the badges, they immediately guessed his identity. This caused a commotion in the tower. When Alfred who is relishing in the admiration of all the apprentices in the ground floor heard the commotion, he was about to come out, but the group already reached the door of the room.

When he saw the other three tower heads with Sam, he frowned.

"Harold, what is with the commotion? Why make a big fuss when you come?" Alfred asked with a clearly displeased tone. He didn't address Sam at all. In his view, no matter how much of a genius Sam is, him greeting him first is loss of status, since he is now in higher status. In his mind a Pill master is higher than Artisan. That is why he didn't even budge when saw the rank 3 Scholar Artisan Badge.

Sam just sized up the arrogant and haughty Alfred. He is just like his son. His face will blend in the crowd naturally. Nobody would bother to pick him out of a group. He made his way to the room and looked around. The room has three big green lizards. Sam recognised them in a glance. They are green scale lizards. Each lizard is kept on a table and completely bound by various inscriptions and Articrafts. All three of them are at Level 2 Peak and all of them have their leg severed. Blood dripped from the wound.

Sam looked at the scene and immediately understood what is happening. There are three people standing near each table. They are healers, who are practising healing lessons. Actually, they use these Green scale lizards to practise because, the severed limb will grow as long as they were fed with enough water spiritual energy. All the healers are rank-1 healers. They will make a wound and heal it. They might make some mistakes as the beast level is at the highest of the rank-1 healer could handle and the wound will heal irregularly. They will repeat the process and after the practise is completed, they will sever the spoiled leg and place the lizards inside the water spiritual energy environment and let it heal itself. Even though, they might take a considerable time, the healers didn't care.

When Sam walked towards the bound lizards, he observed as he looked at them. Even though, he is ruthless, he felt that torturing the beasts without any particular enmity is still beneath him. All the healers standing there immediately walked away and stood behind Alfred. They felt their hair stand as they saw Sam's cold gaze.

"Mr. Alfred. I am Sam. I am here today to speak about your son Albert." Sam said without looking at him at all. He is still looking at the binding articraft chains on the lizards.

As soon as Alfred heard his son, his expression changed and he whispered something in a healer's ear and walked towards Sam.

"What do you have to say?" He asked with a frown.

"Well, your son Albert came to my mansion uninvited a few days ago and then ranted on that he wants me to do this and that for him as protection fee in the school. So, I am here to discuss that." Sam replied and took a seat in one of the three chairs in the room. "Please take a seat." He gestured Alfred to sit which the latter followed.

"Mr. Sam. You seem to be mistaken. I know my son. With your status isn't it beneath you to slander others. Young men nowadays are being spoiled." Alfred didn't admit. But he couldn't help feel disappointed in heart. He really said the truth and that is he really knew his son and his son would definitely do what Sam had said. But knowing is one thing and admitting is another.

"Dad, are you looking for me?" Suddenly Albert came in and when he looked at Sam, his face brightened and said.

"Are you done with my order?" He didn't even see his father's expression when he said that. He was really enthusiastic when he saw Sam. But he is bound to be disappointed.

Sam looked at Alfred with a hint of mockery and disdain.

"What are you waiting for? Take out the goods." Albert didn't see the situation and just demanded again. Alfred suddenly wanted to bash his son so hard, that he would lay on the bed for a month. He is now in a spot because of him. His didn't see the bigshots and people and directly trying to extort from a genius.

Suddenly, Sam missed his gun, He really wanted to bury a whole magazine of shots in this Albert's chest at point blank range. He stood up and walked towards one of the Lizards which are tied up and then placed his hand on a binding chain. He looked towards Alfred and spoke.

"Mr. Alfred. I am here because I have something to say. Because, you might find this useful in future." As he said that the chain he touched suddenly turned into powder and he moved to another chain on the lizard. The spectators are looking at it incredulously. He didn't seem to care and continued.

"You might not know. But I am a person, who advocates Pride and arrogance, because I am quite proud and arrogant myself.

Your son Albert wanted to use his status as a Novice to extort something from me." As he said this all the bindings on the lizard are in powder state.

"Your son also threatened me using your position as a Pill master. Indeed, the people from the Pharmaceutical tower have higher status in the society. But I know that there are differences in the statuses between the people from the Pharmaceutical tower as well. For example, a healer is high ranked than a Pill master. Isn't right?" Sam said as he placed his hand on the wound of severed leg of lizard. He looked at Alfred and said.

"An advice Mr. Alfred. Your son's arrogance for your status will be just liking healing spell. He can save himself from some people. Just like how they he can heal some wounds just like this."

As he spoke the golden light started emitting from the hand and in a rapid pace the new leg started growing and with in a few dumbfounding seconds, there is new leg. Sam then patted the lizard's head and then took the severed leg in to his hand.

"But if he is drunk from arrogance from your status excessively. This might happen."

As he said that, suddenly the leg in his hands turned into a meat paste in his hands. Even the bones were not spared. All the spectators took a step back and felt fearful.

"I came here to tell this today not because, I am afraid of your status or something. I could have dealt with your son with many means. But the you will interfere with your revenge pursuit with unlimited hypocrisy, which I hate to my guts. That is why I am informing you directly. If your son comes to me again. Remember that my cultivation will not stay same all the time." He said and walked towards the entrance along with the three bigshots and Kelly.

The three bigshots didn't say a thing today, because they just wanted to watch the show and try to help Harold a little to improve his relation with Sam as his main trade is Artisan. But when they looked at Alfred's current expression.....
