Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

The team along with your new addition moved immediately as soon as Sam recovered.

Sam is getting sick of this recruitment. Even though this is beneficial for him, the thought of being a rat in a bait-laced race is not exactly a pleasant one.

As for the Night Ghost, he is almost sure that as soon as he helps him take revenge against the Ash Demons, he would join his team.

They went to the Ash Demon Realm which is the realm ruled by the Ash Demons. Just like the Night Demons, Ash Demons also occupied and controlled the whole realm on their own the only difference is that Ash demons are a little bit weaker than the Night Demons when it comes to both overall strengths as well as individual strength of the heads.

The head of the family is a middle-stage Transcendent cultivator of the Astral Plane for the Ash Demon family, while for the Night Demons it is a Late-stage Transcendent cultivator of Astral Plane.

Night Ghost is also in the Middle stage Transcendent level, but the only reason he is stopping from storming in and taking revenge on the Ash Demon family is that there are two more people in the Ash Demon family who are on the same level as the head. The two grand elders are not only brothers of the family head, in fact, but all three of them are also triplets.

They all look alike and there is even rumor circulating that, sometimes they exchange the positions of the Grand Elder and family head within themselves and they don't reveal it to anyone just for the sake of it. They are extremely close and they don't have any form of rivalry or conflicting ambitions between them.

They are united and harmonious as they ruled over the realm together.

After arriving in the realm, Sam sent the team to enquire about the situation in the capital, while he went to the forest occupied by the Night Ghost which is not that far away from the capital. He took Paras as Vidyut with him.

Paras held his ax in vigilance while Vidyut also held his bow. They are extremely cautious as soon as they entered this eerie forest.

Sam activated his energy vision, but it is not the regular energy vision, he modified it a bit while injecting death energy so that the vision would focus more on the death energy in the surroundings.

Night ghost might be a ghost cultivator, but the energy emitted even by those ghosts is death energy and soon he found what he was looking for.

He took a step back and whispered something in Vidyut's ears.

Vidyut was a little bit confused, but he still raised his brow and aimed it in a direction, and shot an arrow purely made of lightning which hit a tree.

The tree was charred immediately, Sam looked at the tree and said.

"It didn't miss. We aimed at the tree."

As soon as he said those words, a semi-transparent and semi-corporal body appeared near that tree.

It is a ghost of a human.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" The ghost spoke and Sam explained.

"We came here to make a deal with you. Can we talk?"

"I am not a merchant." The ghost replied.

"But I am one. The deal is about the Ash Demon family. I would help you destroy it."

"You?" There is a sense of condescension in that tone of voice. But Sam chuckled and said.

"I heard you are quite a gambler. Let's make a bet if you don't trust me."

"Gamble? Who told you that?"

"A couple of my subordinates came to your forest a few days ago. They came out alive because of a gamble, didn't they? I think you would remember them. At least one of them."

"You are Sia's boss?" This time the tone is of surprise.

"It seems like she forgot to mention my cultivation level. I am that boss, so now are you ready to take the bet?"

"First tell me what the gamble is."

"Simple, I will help you take down Ash Demon family in ten days. If I win, you will come and work for me for a decade. If I lose, I will give thirty thousand souls.

Even though the souls are not of high-level, I am sure the sheer number of it will be a good enough boost."

"Thirty thousand souls? Have you ever seen that many?"

"Don't worry, you are not the only one with weird habits of collecting souls. You collect them for your cultivation, I collect them for my subordinates' training. That is the only difference."

With that, Sam took out a formation that is used for training the mentality of his subordinates. He got a bunch of them with him and they would really be around ten to twenty thousand souls. As for why he made the bet, he knew for sure that he would be able to win no matter what.

Night Ghost fell into deep thought and replied.

"Decade is too much."

"Are you telling me, that the grudge you have with the Ash Demon family is not even worth a decade of your lifetime? I know the reason you are waiting is, you are not sure that you can defeat the triplets of the Ash demon family and you only want to make a move once you surpass them.

How long do you think that would take? It is not like they would stagnate while you progress alone, right?

All I am asking for is a decade. Trust me after staying with me for a decade, you wouldn't even want to leave me, even if I ask you to leave."

"Sure, Deal."

"Wait here, I will come back in a few days to meet you with some news on my progress."

With that, all three of them left the forest and sneaked back into the city.

That evening.

Inside the city in the most luxurious in the team gathered.

"So, what are the results? Anything that we can take advantage of?"

The team started showing their investigation results and Kiran has the most intriguing one.

"I found a brother of the triplets."

Everyone was surprised.

A brother of triplets, that is not exactly a popular person, at least not as popular as he should be.

Because no one from that team that spent the whole day in the city heard about him.

"He is not exactly popular and except for some high-level families and organizations, many in the lower levels of the city didn't even know him.

That guy also does nothing of importance and it is not due to the lack of trying.

Since his three brothers took up the mantle of their father, he decided to progress their family in different directions. He became a merchant and in fact a good one at that.

The rest of the peers of his generation including his brothers don't care much about him or his achievements. Then his insecurities got better of him and he spent all the profits on himself due to the constant goading of people.

This caused him to get lost in gambling and whoring around and he is looking for that one lucky break in the family which could give him a respectable position. He completely lost the belief in working his way up slowly and gave up on business.

Only after that did the family realize that their useless merchant brother is a great businessman and he brought many benefits even though he gobbled up most of the profits.

But it was already too late and they pushed him beyond recovery. His situation is similar to that third young master in the elven branch. The only difference is that the third young master is too good on the physical side while this guy is too good on the mental side.

But he is always high on alcohol and doesn't think straight. I think he is a perfect fit for being our target."

Sam looked at all the information Kiran has gathered and asked.

"How did you get it?"

"The bar where this guy is a regular customer at has a waitress. I just hit on her a bit and she spilled the beans."

"Bars and Waiters, they are the best, aren't they?

If only all my doomed enemies knew that most of their death was due to the contribution from the waiters. They might die of embarrassment.

Anyway, this guy is indeed a great fit. First, make friends with him in another disguise. You are now a merchant who came here to enter the market of this realm.

Your product of choice is currently alcohol. Just make friends with him normally and don't even show a hint that you know his identity.

I will tell you what to do next. You have three days to make him trust you. I will give you the required alcohol to fit the play perfectly.

And if he asks what other fields you work in, make sure he believes you are uncomfortable talking about it and it is something that you cannot reveal to just anyone.

I will plan the rest and tell you."
