Chapter 1443 - Mole

The next day.

The tournament for selecting the representative candidates has begun. Everyone is excited and there are a lot of spectators from outside the clan.

Most people were allowed in as long as they were vouched by someone from within the clan. The audience enjoyed the massive fights that took hours to be done and some fights that were over in a second.

They all cheered for their favourite youngster of the clan.

The tournament went for three days straight and Sam stayed within the basement for three days as he created something.

He made four robes and gave them to Saran on the third day.

When Saran covered one of the babies with the robe, he wasn't able to sense the constitution. The concealment is perfect.

He heaved a sigh of relief and covered all the kids with the robes. Even though sometimes they might get irritated, he knew for sure that this is the best choice.

Along with the robes Sam also gave a formation disc that could be used for short time frames whenever they had to remove the robe off of a baby.

The day after the tournament was over, the selected candidates set off to the main tournament venue.

From what Sam learned, the tournament would go for fifteen to twenty days. So, Grivon wouldn't be here for that long and Sam has to take care of the forces and command them.

Sam and Giyon went to send them off. There are a lot of people leaving. Two Grand Elders along with Gail, Gamin and Yuvana. The security of the whole thing is scary.

This indicated how important the tournament is and how nasty the situation would get if things were to go slightly wrong.

The clan's leader didn't go as he has a lot of things to manage from within the clan, but he is relieved that Gail and others went as security. Now, he doesn't have to be worried about anything.

He looked at this friend Mendi who is taking everyone to the tournament venue. Even though he trusts his friend, there is a faint nagging feeling deep inside his heart. But when he looked at Gail, he knew things would turn out alright no matter what was thrown at them.

After they left, Sam spent another week in seclusion. Except when he was giving lessons to the kids, he didn't bother to come out of the stray realm. He gave instructions to the artisans to drop most of the other research to create some puppets and four of them are the puppets that looked like babies.

The puppet bodies were manufactured and since Sam doesn't need anything complicated from these puppets they were pretty easy to make.

After the bodies, Sam then proceeded to make flesh and skin for them. He needs to make sure they looked as real as possible.

Even though it is impossible to create some kind of baby android, it is still good enough as long as it is convincing when the babies are placed in another set of robes, which he patiently made.

Then finally Sam gave them a lethal touch.

Since the mechanism is not complicated and they don't have to make extreme movements, these baby puppets have a lot of space left inside even though they are very small.

He filled the whole cavity with liquid energies of four different elements. Wind, light, dark and metal. The four elements that the babies are originally born with.

He finished everything properly and took the puppets to Saran.

He also gave the tokens to activate the explosions of liquid energy.

"Please, be very, very, very careful with these tokens. Even if the person is of your cultivation level, things wouldn't end up good if they are holding the puppet and has their guard completely down.

They will be suffering some serious damage."

"Thank you."

Saran just said these two words. From the previous rant Sam went on, he understood that he is just trying to help the kids to mend some of his past wounds.

Since he figured Sam could have done anything by now, if he were really trying to harm them, he let him be.

After getting the puppets, Saran's family finally relaxed a bit.

Now they don't have to compulsively hide the fact that they had children even though the whole world knows it.

Some of the servants who were tightly held back from visiting some of the rooms just to make sure that they don't have to see the babies were once again allowed to do their previous tasks. Of course, Saran's wife and the children were still kept in relative privacy from the rest.

After this, Sam gave orders to the information networks to keep an eye on any person that comes looking for the lightning, hill, babies of Saran and all three of them together while he immersed himself within the task of increasing Grivon's assets.

It could be said, Grivon's wealth has grown very much since Sam came. He now has dozens of new businesses in new fields and he also gained new realms under his control. That alone is enough to make him the richest among his peers.

In the process, Sam is also dealing with Sivan's assets one by one.

From the information he received, Sivan is also going to the tournament. It has already been three months since Sivan remotely made any more, Sam doesn't know the exact reason, but they didn't dare to attack a power very close to Mari Clan, since there would be a chance that they would get noticed and get attacked.

But now that the Mari clan must have also sent a lot of people away for the tournament and particularly since Sivan is gone, Sam felt that it is the perfect time to destroy some assets that are close to Mari Clan and also core to Sivan's stability.

This time, he didn't even focus on conquering the land and taking over.

The area he is targeting is too close to Mari Clan and they wouldn't be able to hold the ground when the other side becomes serious. It would be a waste of many resources.

The main goal this time is to destroy a business, loot the collected resources and destroy the resource points.

Sam drafted a list of plans and sent an elite team to launch attacks at different points.

While things are going smoothly, something else is happening behind the scenes which both Sam and Saran don't know anything about.

And it is has something to do with Mingiv's mother's clan.

Since they came that day a few days ago, they didn't leave. They stayed within the clan and according to the rumours they decided to stay here for two months. So, there is a lot of time for them to return.

In fact, they even managed to get some of their own participants to try out in the selection tournament.

Of course, they knew that they wouldn't be selected, but the battle experience in a place like this is bound to be prestigious for them.

Everyone just thought that they are trying to remain in Gaja Clan's favour and they are just here to kiss ass for a few months before leaving.

It is understandable as the matrimony that kept the relationship between the two clans was now gone.

But without anyone knowing, the Grand Elder Rebo is doing something else.

Outside the city, a canyon that is at least half-a-day away from the city, Grand elder Rebo is currently walking as he looked at every nook and cranny of the canyon with a scroll in his hands.

He is reading the description again and again as he examined the shapes of various protrusions of the canyon.

After twenty minutes of search, he finally found the spot he was looking for and injected his spiritual energy into the canyon wall.

The canyon rumbled a bit and a small passage opened up right near his feet. He jumped in and the ground closed up once again with another rumble.

Rebo landed in an underground cave completely illuminated with some trinkets.

There is a group of people sitting at various spots while meditating and some of them are practising their battle skills with swords and spears.

When they saw the old man walking, they all stopped what they are doing and one of them walked to him.

"How is the situation in Gaja Clan? Did they suspect you?"

"No. We successfully got in and gelled together with them. There are no suspicions and they all left for the tournament just like you mentioned.

I came to inform you that."

"Oh? They finally left?"

"Yes, Gail, Gamin and Yuvana. The three people that you are worried about are also not here. But the clan leader and two more grand elders are still left behind. I am more concerned about them."

"No, Grand Elders are far easier to deal with when compared to those three. You wouldn't understand even if I explain.

Just go back and wait there.. We will inform you when the time is right."
