Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Dayus looked at Sam with immense anger and indignation. As soon as Sam changed his staff and replaced it with a dagger he understood what he is doing.

He is showing off his skills. This is the answer to Dayus' claim that Sam is nothing without his tricks.

He is using different weapons to deal with him and with a sword, the staff, and the spear, Sam came out on top on every exchange while Dayus whose only weapon is a spear and his best fighting condition he couldn't win against Sam in even a single exchange.

This made him feel a burning sensation on his face. But he doesn't know whether it is the shame or the kick Sam gave him on the face.

He cannot stand his humiliation and rushed at Sam with his spear.

Sam dodged the lighting spear coming at him and swung his dagger at Dayus who barely managed to dodge.

Once again the exchange became heated. This time Dayus started using his head and tried to keep Sam at a distance so that he wouldn't be able to attack him with the dagger.

Sam looked at the streaks of lightning that are coming at him with every swing of the spear and could only dodge or block with the dagger.

His expression showed that he was troubled. Dayus grinned at this sight and charged forward faster. But as the spear moved, Sam suddenly smiled and moved towards the spear instead of dodging it, he let the spear go below his armpit and slid over the spear.

Dayus wanted to dodge while dragging his spear, but Sam held the spear tightly with his arm and dragged Dayus forward with all his strength, and stabbed the dagger into the same shoulder extended the wound even more and kicked Dayus back once more.

The Dagger was stuck there.

Sam then took out his bow and aimed at Dayus with a smile.

Dayus tried his best to regain his balance and dodged the first arrow and the second one.

Sam started shooting rapidly and Dayus didn't even find a chance to counterattack. After around fifteen volleys, Sam suddenly nocked three arrows and held a bow at a different angle. All three arrows cut through the wind and moved towards Dayus, all three aiming at three different points on Dayus' upper body.

Dayus spun his spear as he blocked two of them, when he was about to hit the third one which is coming at his throat, he suddenly sensed something, an arrow came from nowhere and hit the tail end of the spear which made his posture change with the sheer force and the arrow which was supposed to be hitting in the neck hit on the dagger lodged in his body.

The dagger got deeper into the shoulder and even a part of the hilt was inside.

Sam stored the bow away as he looked at Dayus with even more disdain. This made Dayus even angrier.

"How dare you humiliate me like this? How dare you? YOU BASTARD. How dare you do this to me? I will kill you. I will definitely kill you."

Dayus muttered as he made hand signs.

He is using the blood art.

The Blood Art was given to them by the God who chose him.

Sam didn't stop him. He just looked at him calmly.

The word Bastard is ringing in his head. After all these years, no one dared to call him that to the face. He is definitely feeling angry. He really wanted to rip Dayus apart, he started breathing rapidly. But he is calmer than before. He didn't want a mindless slaughter even with all the rage bubbling inside him.

For him to gain this level of calm, he had to cultivate till Astral Plane.

He shook his head and tried his best to suppress the urge. After a few seconds, he closed his eyes and just waited for Dayus to finish the bloodline art and started taking deep breaths before finally opening his eyes.

Dayus is currently charging at him with the blood-red spear which is surrounded by purple lightning. He is wearing blood-red full body armor that looked like it belonged to a Medieval Knight.

Sam blocked the attack and used the force to take a step back. His partial lightning fusion was gone.

He looked at Dayus and shadow energy surrounded his body. As he finished the shadow elemental fusion and his own shadow started extending with the injection of the shadow elemental energy.

Soon the few strands of shadow extended as they coiled around Sam's limbs and slowly started covering his body.

Dayus felt a bad premonition and he immediately made his body. He channeled a lot of energy into the spear and got into a throwing stance as he aimed at Sam.

The purple lightning completely covered the spear and made it completely invisible. It just looked like a condensed and concentrated bar of lightning in his hand and threw with all his might.

The ground below his feet cracked as the spear left his hands.

The spear destroyed everything in its path as it made its way towards Sam who is currently coiled with the vines made of his own shadow and is slowly merging.

When the spear was about to meet him, Sam just smiled and the shadow vines caught the spear.

*BOOM*

A large explosive sound could be heard as dust rubble rose.

When it settled, Sam is still standing in the spot with the shadow vines holding the spear in front. All the energy and the force have been negated.

Sam's smirk is still there.

The shadow merging was completed and the dark mass covering him slowly converged into an armor.

A full body armor that perfectly fit his body. Dark smoke was being emitted around him. He threw the spear away and made his move.

Dayus widened his eyes in disbelief and only came back to his sense when Sam finally made his move.

He extended his hand and the blood spear Sam threw away came back to him as he got ready to fight and stabbed at Sam.

But Sam disappeared into a puff of dark smoke and before he could realize it, he felt a strong impact on the back of his ear.

Sam's kick landed on the back of his ear making him crash into the ground.

Dayus wanted to get up, but Sam already arrived and dropped an ax kick on the already injured shoulder.

Dayus used the other hand to stab Sam with the spear, but Sam dodged and kicked Dayus' face with repel style making him fly away from the ground.

While he was still in mid-air, Sam appeared above him and stomped him on his head in midair making him crash into the ground once again.

Dayus used his spear to stab the ground and lessen the impact. When Sam reappeared beside him with a kick, he used the spear to block it, but the shadow armor on Sam's leg immediately extended some vines which coiled around the spear, and when Sam lowered the leg, the spear was also dragged down with it.

Sam used his other leg to kick Dayus in the face, making him fly sideways.

And that was only the beginning.

For the next fifteen minutes, Dayus had the beating of his lifetime. Sam didn't use any of his techniques, any other elemental energies and none of his attacks are made to kill. He is just beating the crap out of Dayus.

By now the team was done with the rest of the group and brother one is currently held by Saber Monarch.

And he looked at the scene with horror.

He readily agreed with Dayus' plan because he felt like nothing much would happen since a ready-made scapegoat was available for him and if he failed to use it, he would be an idiot.

But never thought that the other party is nothing like a goat much less his scapegoat. He is not some meek animal that is ready for slaughter.

He looked like the one that would be the cause of the slaughter.

He clearly knew of Dayus' strength. The first thing he did when Dayus came with this proposal is to test his strength.

He knew what he was capable of. But in front of Sam, he is nothing but a helpless man who can only take abuse.

"STOOOOP."

While he was in a daze a shout made him come back to his senses.

It was none other than Dayus who yelled.

Sam stopped and looked at him.

"Please let me go. I will not get in your way. I will never even show you my face voluntarily."

He pleaded.

Sam just looked at him coldly without replying.

"I apologize for plotting against you. I apologize for my arrogance. Please just let me go. I want to live."

Sam's cold gaze wavered a bit and he turned his attention a bit as if he was really thinking about something.

At this moment Dayus took out a token and crushed it as spatial elemental energy surrounded him.

"Hahaha, what a fool you are. How dare you humiliate me like this? I will have my revenge one day and then you wouldn't even have a chance to run."
