Chapter 1441 – Visitors
"There is some suspicious activity within the city.
I found out some of the spies of other organizations are sniffing around the city, trying to gain information about me.
They are trying to see if I am the same person as before the weird phenomenon. They are asking if I had kids and how my delivery went. It seems like keeping quiet about it and not letting anybody see the kids has raised some suspicions.
But I don't understand how someone can even know of the special situation of the kids. It is impossible for the news to go out through the clan, as even the clan members don't know.
The only suspicious thing is that hill and the lightning phenomenon which you took the blame for. So, why are they still coming with more and more questions?
From the past month, they have been increasing by a large amount every day. I caught three maids that are trying to infiltrate my household and two of my subordinates were replaced by some disguised men.
This is making me panic."
Sam frowned as he heard what Saran said.
"The situation is indeed troubling. "
He looked at the children that are competing with each other to gain their mother's attention. He couldn't help but shake his head.
"What have you done after catching them? Did you get any information on who sent them?"
"No. The only thing I know is that they are sent by the same person, but there is not much information about that person in their heads.
They met at different locations and these people never even saw his face. He is very smart.
Sam thought for a moment and said.
"The situation is really bad. If you try too hard to hide your children now, they will become more curious and come after you with more force, but if you revealed them and your children turned out to be what they are looking for, things wouldn't be good then either.
I need to think about it a bit.
I just hope that you handle it a bit gently. You cannot make any rash moves. I will try and see if we can find out anything regarding them with Giyon and Grivon's intelligence network.
If we know who the enemy is at least, we would be able to prepare ourselves for what comes next.
We need to know the motives before preparations. I will try and think of some remedies. I will stay in touch."
Sam didn't waste time and left immediately after the discussion.
He met with Giyon and Grivon to explain the situation.
"I am really puzzled by this. If the constitutions are the only things that are making these children special, why don't you pull off one of your inventions that hides the said constitutions? I am sure you are perfectly capable of it."
"Yes, I am. But that is not the problem here.
I don't exactly know whether the people that are coming here are looking for just the constitutions."
"What do you mean?"
"From what Saran said, people are investigating him, particularly regarding the lightning incident, his kids and anything weird that might have happened after the babies are born.
But why are they asking those questions? In fact, he said that they are looking for the number of children specifically. The news of the babies shouldn't have even gotten out.
This whole thing is bigger than I initially thought. And since the people behind this managed to send someone to infiltrate directly into Saran's subordinates, things are not going to be easy.
Help me find out who is looking and why are they are looking. I will then proceed with the rest."
Giyon and Grivon complied without any resistance.
They just let Sam use the whole information network as he pleased and for the next week, they completely focused on finding people who came seeking information.
They did get some tips. Sam didn't alert them and only kept the subordinates on their tail trying to find out what exactly they are seeking.
He was surprised by the results though.
From the information he received and the description of how the groups operated, he categorized them into different groups.
One group is mostly concerned about the timings of the delivery, the number of kids and the colour of the lightning.
The second group is trying to get information regarding the genetic ancestry of the parents.
The third group is only interested in the supposed experiment Sam has conducted. But they are also a bit suspect regarding the children.
After separating them and understanding how much they knew, Sam decided to make a move.
They shouldn't be here, but he cannot forcefully send them away without any proper reason as that would only increase the suspicions of the people behind them.
So, he cooked up a plan and decided to deal with them all in one fell swoop in a hidden way.
The next day, the whole city turned a bit chaotic. Sam used his newly gained connections to make the city guards slack off in their patrol in particular areas. Then a bunch of mob fights started out of nowhere.
All the fights occurred at the very places where these three groups of people are staying. The same group of people that successfully created the dawn operation were put on this.
And in what looked like a chaotic mob fight, all three teams are mostly dead. Barely one or two people with severe injuries were left.
They immediately left the city to recuperate. They never expected that so many powerful people will appear like that and make their place on a battlefield.
They know for sure that if the investigation was to take place, the Gaja clan might look into them and their covers will be blown.
So, they decided to lay low outside the city for a short while.
But as soon as they escaped the city, they were killed by Sam's group and their souls were collected.
A group decided to stay within the city, but they were also mysteriously killed, but no one was there to care about them anyway, so they were ignored.
After collecting the information from the souls, Sam finally got some clues.
The three groups are indeed completely different as they don't have any connection between them. But there is also no information on who the employer of each group is.
They all seemed to be working for various mercenary groups. The groups might as well be hired by anyone in the world to get the information.
But at least, now they have someone to go after directly.
As Sam, Giyon and Grivon busied themselves, the Gaja clan is also a bit chaotic.
The same day that Sam created all this commotion, some guests visited the Gaja Clan.
They are actually the clan that Mingiv's mother belonged to before she was married into the Gaja Clan.
After the execution, she went back to her clan, and for some reason, they visited the Gaja Clan.
The Clan's leader of the Gaja clan met with the Grand Elder and some other elders and youngsters that belonged to that clan.
"What do we owe the pleasure of your visit? Elder Rebo?"
"I am here to apologize on behalf of the impudent words that were said by one of our clan's offspring. We came here to make amends."
The old man said with a smile.
Clan's leader looked at the old man with suspicion and asked.
"Then why did you bring so many elders and youngsters? They are not the ones at fault and in fact we can understand why she said those words. We don't have any problem with that."
Old man Rebo smiled awkwardly and said.
"I am ashamed to say this, but we also wanted to take this chance to let our youngsters experience the prowess of the younger generation of the Gaja Clan.
We would like them to experience and broaden their horizons. That is if you don't mind of course."
Clan's leader thought for a moment and just agreed.
A few residences were arranged.
But to the surprise of the Gaja clan, another guest arrived the very next day.
This time, the status of the guest is also very high.
It is someone from a sect that is on the same level as the Gaja Clan, Mari Clan and Star-eyed sect.
In fact, the person that came is the Grand Elder of that sect.
"The Grand Elder of the Tri-Volcano sect, Mendi. Do what do I owe this fortune?"
The clan's leader greeted the man with a smile as he went for a hug.
"My dear friend. How long has it been since we met? A decade?" The man reciprocated the hug.
He took a step back and both of them sized up each other.
Mendi has thick red hair that was tied into a braid.
He looked the same age as the clan's leader and from their conversation, anyone could guess that they were friends.
After making some small talk, Mendi came right to the point.
"I have a very interesting proposal and I am pretty sure you will be interested."
