Chapter 625: Helping them

Dharkan slowly dropped to his knees. If not for the fact that the room is small and Sam didn't want to cause any ruckus, he would have slammed their heads to the ground the minute they made their move.

He looked at Dharkan coldly as he placed the restriction back on Night Charm.

He didn't even stop her bleeding much less heal her. But if he kept it like that and restricted the cultivation, then she would bleed to death.

"Sam, at least heal her."

Dharkan said slowly, but Sam kicked him in the face, before saying.

"You better think about how you are going to stay alive, before thinking about her. Do you think it is that easy breaking your word with me?"

Sam said as he sat on the chair and looked at both of them coldly.

"I don't have any other choice. If you don't die, people will know I didn't kill her. Then I would have myriad of troubles."

Sam became angrier and wanted to smash his head into pulp. But he controlled the urge and said coldly.

"I don't give a fuck about what choice you have. I want the Abyss grass by month. Until then, don't even think about getting to meet her. If the grass is not in my hands by the end of the month, you and she both would wish she is dead.

Generally, I don't like threatening others using someone as a hostage, much less using the fact that the hostage is a woman. You should know what kind of possibilities await her if you don't keep your word."

"YOU DARE?"

Sam snorted and said.

"Don't even think I would touch someone else's woman, I am not that filthy. But I can pay for someone else to do that dirty work. Anyway, judging from your reactions, I could just handover her to another noble from the Andhera Nation and they would definitely give the grass to me. Even though it might not be possible to be a fair exchange, I think me paying them with something extra apart from her is easy.

She must have committed a lot of crimes in your nation to be like this. So, you better be prepared."

Sam stood up and was about to leave with her, But Dharkand jumped and held his legs as he looked at Sam with watery eyes.

"Sam, please don't do this. I promise I will keep my word. I will get the Abyss grass for you. I will get you as much as you want. Just leave her alone. Just let her go back to the sect."

"Do you think I am soft persimmon you could squeeze as you like?"

Sam really wanted to kill both of these people. He really wished that Chatur was nearby and he could contact some other Yaksha right this instant and cut a deal with them. He has half-a-mind to yell in the castle and call out some people that might come out and meet him.

As if reading his thoughts, Dharkan said.

"Just give me a chance to explain, after that you can do as you wish. Please, just give me a chance to explain myself and redeem myself."

"And why would I do that?"

"I don't have anything on me that could convince you, even my word might worth less than dirt for you because of what I did. Please, but just give me a chance."

He started doing kowtows as he pleased Sam.

Sam looked at Night Charm who is weeping as she looked at Dharkan, he sighed and made her sit on the floor before saying.

"You have ten minutes."

He sat on the chair and listened to them as he spoke.

It is actually a simple love story that became complicated because of the difference in statuses and the proud Night Charm who has enough of the oppression couldn't take it anymore and retaliated.

The thing is Night Charm is a daughter of some low-level noble within the capital. Generally, there is no way both of them would have enough contact due to this difference and the only reason they had a chance was due to Night Charm's talent.

She was enrolled into the Royal academy that only specializes in teaching high-class nobles and Royal scions, but she was enrolled due to her Shadow body constitution. An elder of the academy who is the most fearsome assassin of the entire kingdom took her in as a disciple.

There was no problem for them to be together as the elder has enough status, but due to some special circumstances the elder has to go somewhere and didn't return. Everyone thought he died and will never return and Night Charm became that lowly person once again.

But they already crossed limits with each other and she was pregnant. The royal family has too high morals and they started having talks regarding their marriage, but the rest of the nobility didn't agree. After all, they all have daughters and they would never miss a chance to get into bed with royalty. So, some people forcefully made her pregnancy disappear that too in the middle of the Abyss harvest within the valley.

The price went crazy and demanded an explanation from his father. But the King felt like it is too troublesome due to the number of nobles involved as there is a chance for them to rebel the worst part is she cannot give birth anymore as there was some kind of poison residue inside of her uterus.

Thus the queen managed to convince the king that it isn't worth it anymore.

But they really wanted to give the girl some compensation which they thought was generous. But how can a mother evaluate her child loss with just a monetary gain? She asked permission to enter the Abyss harvest the very next year and next thing they knew, that Abyss harvest turned into the darkest incident of the whole nation that lives in darkness.

She killed every person related to the nobility that were involved in her incident. Except for the royal scions almost every person was dead.

Then she managed to escape from the valley into a dark forest that is hard for even superior cultivators to tread. But only later did they realize that Night Charm already made contact with the Union sect and they are the ones who helped her escape.

This time, the nobles demanded an explanation from the King and he once again felt troublesome as the nobles are too many and might rebel.

And this time, the Queen reassured him that she would keep their son in check.

Dharkan then vowed himself to not return to the Abyss harvest again and any other even related to the Royal family.

He even made such a demand to Sam as he felt like maybe he is the only one who has skills to capture her. After all, no one from the Fysi planet were able to do anything within the sect and she never returned to the Fysi. At least, not that they knew of.

After hearing their story, Sam heaved a sigh. He doesn't know how to react, he only sympathized with one person, the unborn baby that died without any cause.

He didn't sympathize with Dharkan or Night Charm individually, he felt for their love a little bit and also for the symbol of their love which is the baby.

He felt like they are not lying that much. But Sam is also feeling conflicted a bit. Half of his mind is screaming and demanded he should help them a bit if necessary other half is saying to let them die their own death.

He looked at them and said.

"I promise you, that I would get the Abyss grass, just help me keep this matter down. Just promise me you will keep it a secret and if anyone asks just tell them both of us killed her."

"Do you think the whole world is stupid and they would believe you?"

Dharkan couldn't reply.

Sam shook his head as he thought and finally came to a decision.

"I have a deal. But this time, it comes with a price. Do you want to accept it?"

"What kind of deal?" Night charm asked. She left the planet in spite and as soon as she saw Dharkan again, she didn't want to leave him once again. She just wanted to die while being with him, but she doesn't want to go back to the sect anymore after meeting with him. That is why, she attacked Sam in tandem with Dharkan.

"The kind that will keep you both alive and also separate from your planet, in fact all of the Naga Loka. Are you interested?"

Both of the exchanged ad glance and once again looked at Sam before resolutely coming to a decision.

"What should we do?"

Sam smiled faintly and started explaining the plan and details. After giving all the details, all three of them sneaked out of the Fysi castle and moved to the lake.

They removed their normal clothes and tried to dress like humans, they tried to hide their Yaksha features as much as possible.

After arriving at the Lake, Sam resolutely dug a large area and created a small cave before covering it up completely and creating a small entrance on top. He placed his thunder prison and tent on top as he gave an oxygen cylinder and other things within that hole to keep them alive.

Luckily they were discreet and fast enough and from what Night Charm said, they are not tracking her anyway, they are tracking Sam himself.

She said that someone is giving information to the Union sect from the Nagin castle and his doubts were confirmed when the next day afternoon, Chatur came to the lake and reported the situation.
