Chapter 1028: First Target
“Night demon family.
Our first target. When dealing with one of our opponents, we accidentally got the attention of the Night Demon family.
Granted that I created some distraction and some infighting, it wouldn’t help us stall them for long. By now, they would have already solved the problem and deemed it as a misunderstanding which it truly is, and focus on the Black Blood demon family incident once again.
We were not exactly low-profile in dealing with the issue, so they might have already started the investigation.
Luckily the Dusk organization has stopped the expansion for a while now, so they would take a few months to find out the tail and get to us.
Before they get to any of the dusk organization branches, we have to go and deal with them first.
The Night demon family is stronger than any organization we have faced.
They occupy a whole realm and they even have some subordinate realms. They are a big existence. But because of the tensions that are created because of my little stunt.
Within the Night Demon family, there would be some undead creatures that are working for them. Some of them are at the elder level. But their authorities mostly lie in the external realms under their control.
We are going to take advantage of that. We are leaving tomorrow. Do whatever you want today, we will leave at dawn.”
With that, the team dispersed.
The next day at dawn, Sam and the rest of the team went to the Night Demon realm.
They directly came to the headquarters. Sam is currently using a normal disguise technique and covered himself with a large dark cloak that concealed his face.
The team took residence in one of the largest inns.
As soon as they settled down, they instantly started the work. They dispersed and went to different bars and restaurants in the city to get any possible information.
Everyone except for Sam.
He stayed within the inn as he waited for the report. If the Night Demons really did research about him and started the investigation, there is a chance that they would definitely have his picture. After all, there are many people in the realm ruled by blood demons who saw him.
He also wanted to bait the rest of the Night Demons to see if they have the information on their team too.
If they really do have it, Sam would proceed differently, if they only had information on him, he would take the current approach.
That evening, the team returned. The information was more or less to Sam’s expectation.
Not many people really do know about the information regarding the blood demons incident. But one thing they knew is that a large team of Night demons was deployed to a subordinate realm to perform an investigation.
That is what the general public knew as there is too much attention on the Night Demon family because of Sam’s little stunt.
That is why the large movement of the demons caught everyone’s attention.
The information in the merchant circle is a little more detailed and they knew of what happened to the Blood demons and they knew of Sam too.
According to the merchants that move between the Blood demons and the Night Demon realm, the Night Demons have Sam’s image who is the leader of the group and they have Jwala’s image who is the cause of the problem. The rest of the team was ignored as they were only present in direct action and eradication.
The investigation started three months ago which is also the time the investigation for the Night Demon family’s losses caused by Sam were also completed.
From what the merchants knew, they are currently investigating Sam in the surrounding realms of the Tri-Ashura Realm.
It would take a lot more time for them to get Sam’s tail, but still, it is better to be cautious.
One thing that surprised Sam the most is that the problems of the Night Demon family lasted this long.
He is pretty sure that what he caused is actually a decently large conflict, but he is also sure that they would have solved it in six months.
After all, all they would do is put pressure on the undead creatures and have them investigated all the while trying to think of a way to cleanse the lands.
But it became more than that.
The information regarding that is quite fascinating. Because this incident caused some deaths within the undead faction.
Even though it is purely coincidental, within the undead faction, there are some people who think differently than others and they are in constant conflict with the Night Demon family in the administration matters.
So, the suspicion was focused on them and one thing led to another before everything went downhill.
That group of undead escaped as things escalated and wanted to live their lives. The Night Demon family head also became a bit suspicious of the remaining undead and made them take a tough decision.
They were sent to kill the undead that ran off and the chase lasted for almost a year. The head didn’t accept anything until their heads were brought to him.
The rest of the procedure was delayed a bit and the Night demons didn’t really try to repair the lands seriously.
At least the people that are assigned to the tasks slacked off after some serious initial attempts and left it there thinking that the escaped undead group might have done it, so the solution would be with them as soon as they got their hands on them.
But after the task is completed and the undead creatures died, there is no sign of procedures in their memories and the night demons can only hire some experts from other powers to clear it.
The news of who they hired is not exactly public, but they seemed to be from some high-level force.
This is the information they got after just one day of investigation.
“Our next step is to make them stop the investigation.
Kiran, you need to make some high-level disguise. The head of the family is a Late-stage Astral Plane Pre-transcendent, so make sure that you don’t mess it up. Even if you meet him face to face, they shouldn’t be able to identify you.
If you want anything for that, tell me now.”
“Who am I disguising as?”
“It would be a night demon, that is the only thing we are clear for now.”
“If possible I would need some time with the person to observe his aura. Four hours would suffice and I would need to know all his memories.”
“That is doable. Go and prepare for it. That is your next task, don’t get involved in anything else. Even if I suddenly ask you to disguise, you should be able to do it.”
Kiran left the room.
“Gran and Sia. Find some details about some important members of the Night demon family. The city guard chief, the investigative department chief, and something like that. You have one day.”
The twins also left.
“The rest of you will go to the Tri-Ashura Realm. Try to find some merchants who deal with the surrounding realms of the Tri-Ashura Realm and see if you can get any information regarding the Night Demons investigation.
Chances are low. They wouldn’t leave such an open tail but see if there is anything that we can use.
The night demons are actually quite a superior race, so they wouldn’t personally investigate the destruction of subordinates. They would ask some local snakes to get the information. Try to see if you can get the information of those local snakes who recently got extreme confidence in their actions.
If you do find anything, try to mess with those families a bit. Piss off some young masters or something to make the elders mess with you and try to see if some night demons will come out.
If they come out, deal with them if them.
We need some extra distraction.
You have five days. Come back and gather at Tri Ashura realm. I would come and meet you there.”
The whole team dispersed.
The next day, Gran and Sia came back with the information he wanted.
They got the information of the local city guard chief, enforcement team, and such, they have residences and their basic habits that they were told by some locals.
Sam looked through all the information and picked a target.
The Vice-captain of the Enforcement team.
Quite a tyrant, but most of all he is a Night Demon and a descendant of an elder.
But he is not as capable as his father, but still wanted some authority, to keep him in check they gave him this post.
He is an idiot and a goof. He drinks a lot, whores around, and does all kinds of things that are not befitting to his status.
He has a lot of mood swings and he doesn’t have much real authority, but he is someone who can get together with a lot of core people.
He would be the perfect target for the plan.
