Chapter 2174  Another Deal

 Sam is actually keeping track of the Shadow Cavalry.

There is no direct s.p.a.ce gate from the Thala.s.sa family to the Vlachou family.

They might have had some dealings because of their league situation, but they definitely are not close enough to have direct travelling means like that.

The problem now is that the Shadow Cavalry is not exactly adept at navigating between the planets and realms like this. They are a kill-action squad. They would be directed by someone to their destination and they would be given a target.

They will just kill them and be done with it.

They were brought to be that way since they were infants.

So, they are having a bit of a hard time.

And whenever they used a s.p.a.ce gate, they are arriving at an unfamiliar territory. And Sam wanted to take advantage of that.

He accompanied Ivar to go and meet with young master Jamin once again.

"It has been some time. How are you doing?" Jamin is still in his own city, in the middle of the restaurant. In the same private room.

Sam smiled and asked.

"I am doing great. I am glad to know that the business is booming."

"Of course, mostly because of the chaos created in the Thala.s.sa family. I heard that some weird creatures appeared out of nowhere and are wrecking havoc in all of Thala.s.sa territory. The suppressed commoners and smaller families are taking advantage.

They all want the weapons that could grant them an extra layer of protection.

I even wanted to ask you to increase the supply."

"Sure, why not. The weird creatures that you are talking about…" Even before Sam could continue, Jamin smirked and stopped him.

"Please, don"t act like you don"t know about them. The whole plight of the Thala.s.sa family started when you met me the first time. I am still not sure of your ident.i.ty and I am unsure of your involvement in the whole fiasco. But I am sure of one thing, you are definitely aware of all the chaos that happened.

Including the weird creatures. The centaurs or to be more accurate the Shadow Cavalry."

Sam didn"t reply and just stayed put.

He wanted to see how far Jamin actually speculated.

"If my guess is right, you are definitely a person that is currently involved in the Academy realm.Maybe Hub, flaming skulls, or a student, maybe even that guy named Sam, or the person that is helping that guy named Stone.

You could be anyone."

Sam just smiled.

"Is it necessary for you to learn about my ident.i.ty right now?"

"Not really. Just admit that you are involved and speak straightforwardly. I will appreciate it a lot more. By now, you should have understood my character.

As long as you are upright with me and give me the benefits that I deserve, I am happy to cooperate."

"Okay, then.

You can keep on guessing my ident.i.ty. I am sure you will. Right now, I came here to offer you a deal."

"What would that be?"

"I will destroy the core island of the Thala.s.sa family. The Thala.s.sa planet will be cleared. Do you want a share?"

Jamin widened his eyes and his jaw dropped to the point that an egg could fit in his mouth.

"Don"t tell me you are kidding." For the first time, Jamin leaned forward with interest.

"Of course not. Even if I can clear that planet, I cannot spare resources to develop it. In fact, I have little interest in making it my base. All I need are the resources that are native to that planet.

So, if you help me, you can take over that planet and give me resources in return."

"What help would that be?"

"I am sure you know that most of the Thala.s.sa territories are weak and the shadow cavalry is using their network to travel.

I want you to make sure that the Shadow Cavalry travels in circles with the Thala.s.sa territory until all of their bases are cleared and only after they are done, you can let them go back to Vlachous territory."

Jamin is once again dumbfounded.

Ivar looked at them both with a straight face.

However, in his heart he has been screaming on top of his lungs. He is already shocked when he found out that the shadow cavalry is captured by the Hub.

He is even more surprised to learn that Sam restrained and even performed surgeries on those fearsome centaurs.

He was shocked when he was told that the centaurs were sent away. He didn"t know where they went.

Only now did he hear about their presence.

And when Sam said something like clearing out the Thala.s.sa family he wanted to bash his head to the wine bottle and commit suicide right there.

After all, how old was he? He is several generation senior to Sam. How many years had he been trying to put up a fight against the Academy realm? But Sam came and it hasn"t even been a year. But he is already making big moves.

He caused the academy realm to fall into crisis after crisis. Right now the whole academy realm owes the hub and a bunch of them surrendered their a.s.sets. The big families are all in trouble.

Zeus Academy is brought to its knees to the point that some old man lying deep in seclusion has to come out.

Now, he is talking about clearing out a family from n.o.ble.

Ivar can only imagine the joy on Icarus" face.

While Ivar is lost in his own imagination, Sam and Jamin agreed on the deal. Sam shook his hand and said.

"I will await the first batch to be delivered in a week."

"For that, I have to occupy that place in two days."

"Why wait? You can go ahead now. The Thala.s.sa family is already destroyed. Not a single member is left in the Thala.s.sa planet. Not even the spies of the other families were spared. That is why, the news didn"t spread.

You can just go right now and occupy it properly."

Sam just smiled and left along with Ivar.

Jamin stood up abruptly and was in a daze as he watched at the receding backs of those two people.

Only after a few minutes did he come out of that daze and he immediately contacted his men. Soon, he received the news and confirmed what Sam said.

This made him gulp down in nervousness.

This is too big of a move from Sam. This almost made him rethink if the decision to look into Sam"s ident.i.ty.

He then pushed the thought to the back of his mind and went to handle the things. Even though he has enough influence, Jamin didn"t have enough strength. So, inevitably, he would have to rely on his family.

At least, he can find a reliable elder that is neutral in the family to claim this newfound opportunity.

But before that, he needs to execute Sam"s plan.

…

Meanwhile.

By the time Sam went back to the Academy realm, the fourth revived pocket dimension is over. Another overpowered puppet and some battle techniques along with a bunch of blueprints were delivered.

b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot who is also curious about these things pushed everything aside and went to talk to the students who came out of these pocket dimensions.

Dayus who came out of the Pocket dimension, realized that the dynamic of the whole city changed.

He also came to know the Norse Academy"s ploy to s.n.a.t.c.h the legacy inheritance. He wanted to storm the Dean and ask him to help him.

But he also realized who this b.l.o.o.d.y Chariot is and how he is now in charge. This made him feel even more wary.

While things are like this, by that night, the news of Thala.s.sa family"s destruction made its way to the Zeus City.

Not just that, there is also another news that accompanied it.

That is the presence of the Shadow Cavalry in the Thala.s.sa territory along with the ma.s.sacres they are conducting.

Sam didn"t know what method Jamin used, but he managed to make the Shadow Cavalry go circles within the Thala.s.sa territory along with other subordinate territories of Thala.s.sa.

Within a day, they already covered half of the area and wherever they went, someone created a conflict with them.

They left trials of blood in their wake and madly searched for a way to go back to the Vlachous family.

Christos felt like he was. .h.i.t by a hammer.

How did the shadow cavalry that was originally captured by the Hub appear in Thala.s.sa family.

And when he thought of Thala.s.sa family, a different thought appeared in his mind.

The Pseudo-h.e.l.l incident.

As if the existing twists and turns are not enough, a brand new layer is added to the confusion.

This is the worst thing that could happen.

Now it is hard to not suspect that the Hub and Sam are not related.
