Chapter 165 Evil Minds Think Alike
“How can I help you? I am in a similar situation to yours. The only difference is that my problems are not that difficult to deal with if you want me to slaughter the Tiwari clan. I can even do that for you, but you will need to be patient. It will take some time to destroy it,” he said with full confidence.
Rishi had a weird expression on his face. Even though he was not that confident he could slaughter the whole Clan, but Vinay was 100 percent sure he would be able to do it. He sighed. Well, it is what can be expected; he has the hand of a strong Diety on his head.
“No, there is time in it. I will need your help for it later, but for now, I want your help in other things,” said Rishi as he told Vinay about how he plans to make the Tiwari Clan bleed by Assassinating their important people.
Vinay laughed, “This plan sounds fun. To create an assassin—not an ordinary assassin, but a monster—who will become a pain to deal with for the Tiwari Clan; you also want to create a guild of such humans; don’t tell me you are a demon king or something.”
A woman’s laugh could be heard inside Vinay’s head: ‘This boy suddenly doesn’t look that bad; he belongs to the same category as you and me. We are all Agents of Death and Destruction; Vinay, you should join him and become a founding member with him. It will make your life easier too, and doesn’t this look like a beautiful plan to you?’𝒏𝓞𝒱𝓮𝔩𝓃𝗲xt.𝔠𝑜𝓂
‘You will not need to take care of all the little matters once you have such a guild in your hand. You will be able to freely focus on growing individually.’ She said while laughing; on one side was Rishi, who was sweating and trying to think of ways to please Yakshini, but little did he know. She was already impressed by his cunningness and evil spirit.
‘It does look like a good plan, but why would he agree to give me a fifty percent share? He is from a clan bigger than mine, and I don’t think I can produce resources equal to his.’ Vinay was not sure.
‘You are forgetting something, Vinay. You are not alone; I am also with you. Why would he call you and tell you everything if you could not offer him something? He had already decided to partner with you; he had all the resources but didn’t know how to create powerful humans in a short time.’
‘Even if he knows them, he might be unsure about how to control them. He is an interesting fellow. I was also thinking about increasing my followers, but now it looks like I have a way.’ A woman’s laugh could be heard inside Vinay’s head, but this laugh was pure evil unlike the usual sweet and pleasing one.
‘Why do you need followers? What can they give you? Aren’t you already strong enough?’ Asked Vinay in a confused tone.
‘Never think like that, Vinay. Don’t forget I am a Diety. We grow stronger with time, but that process is prolonged. The faster way is to have followers. Our power increases depending upon the quality and quantity of our followers.
‘Followers are also useful in taking care of small problems, and there is a limit to what one can achieve alone. For us, it is easier to raise powerful followers than to get stronger by cultivating. This is why even when we are born way stronger than other races, we need them to increase our power.’
The one who said ‘Like Minds Think Alike’ was really a wise person; Yakshini was a cursed being who had become evil due to loneliness, betrayal, and curse. Vinay was also someone who had seen how cruel and evil humans were after what happened to his father, mother, and himself.
By accepting Yakshini, he also got some amount of evil inside him; the necromancer class and the Book of Death did the rest. He didn’t care about humanity; for him, only the people he liked were important. Even if the rest of humanity perished, he wouldn’t care at all.
While others did not influence Rishi, his childhood experiences made him cruel, cunning, and heartless. It didn’t matter to him what others thought or felt. He would do if using an unethical method could solve his problems.
He was made cold and emotionless by his fate and didn’t blame anyone for it; he too thought like Vinay that a selected few were blessed enough to be seen in a good light by them and that the rest were just tools that they could use as they pleased.
Because of that, Rishi didn’t think even for a second that what he was doing was wrong; meeting his mother and forming the mental world had allowed him to suppress his emotions and presence, but they had not changed him at all.
He had seen from childhood what happens to good people. All the people close to him were some of the nicest humans he had ever met, but they were also the first to die. It was not because they were weak but because they cared for others.
Rishi had turned himself into one such person. He was not a destructive demon who wanted to cause chaos or destruction for no reason at all. In fact, he was very reasonable and had a lot of patience, which is why he had not tried to hit back at the Tiwari clan until now.
There was still some kindness inside him, which gave him a perspective to care about the feelings of others, but there was a limit to his kindness. If the Tiwari Clan wants to play dirty, then they can only blame themselves for what’s about to come.
If his opponents think he is weak and could interfere in his life repeatedly, then they are very wrong; there is a line of judgment inside Rishi’s mind. Tiwari clan had long crossed it; he was silent, not because he was angry or scared.
It was just that the situations were not in his favor, and he spent most of his time in self-improvement rather than devising plans to harm his opponents, but now they were taking him too lightly, thinking that he would be scared or beg for forgiveness. Little did they know they were sitting on a ticking time bomb that would blast them all to ashes once their time was over.
