The fight went on and as it progressed. Sam is disabling one person after another and soon his three friends didn"t have anything to do.

Before they could do anything, Sam is fighting above and beyond as he dealt with them.

Even when the people took advantage of their numbers and escaped from his attack and ran to the fields, his shadows got their hands on them first before Sam"s friends could do anything.

Soon, the town guards came and surrounded Sam stopping him in his place as he kept on thrashing the twenty guys on the ground.

He didn"t make a move on them. Since the cane fields are doing fine, he calmed down. He looked at his friends but didn"t say anything. But his one look made them feel a bit provoked.

They really did wanted to help at first, they really do have some people in their hands, but as the fight progressed, Sam just took over as he just beat the c.r.a.p out of everyone.

They could only clench their fists as they looked back at Sam and grit their teeth in anger.

The town guards are followed by the farmers and soon some officials also came forward.

The guard commander who came fastest almost lost it as he pointed at Sam and yelled.

"What the h.e.l.l are you doing? Are you trying to kill them?"

Sam didn"t speak and looked around at the unconscious and painfully whining twenty or so people on the ground and looked at the commander with a questioning gaze.

The commander himself felt embarra.s.sed when he looked at Sam"s face. The rest of the spectators also understood what Sam"s expression went.

If he wanted to kill them, they would have been dead already and here they are all alive, but just not kicking.

Seeing the commander who is looking for the right words to speak so that he wouldn"t embarra.s.s himself more, Sam continued.

"Twenty people are fighting and they battled from the market street to the farmer street and from here they are going towards the cane field. You are nowhere to be seen all this while and now here you are asking if I wanted to kill them.

I am saving the cane fields so that they wouldn"t be destroyed by some dumb guards and even dumber people that are fighting with them.

If you want to punish me for that, I would happily oblige, but you better answer me why you are late before you do that."

"Why would I need to answer you? I am not answerable to you about anything."

"Of course, you are not answerable to me, but more than half of the sugarcane farmers are voting civilians and they contribute most amount of tax to this town, what about them? Are you not answerable to them at least?"

At these words, the farmers all looked at Sam in admiration. They didn"t believe Sam when he said that he only made a move because they are about to destroy the fields, but they are didn"t completely dismiss the possibility.

After all, Sam is a new guy in town and even if his food is great, the acceptance was only for the food, not the person who made it.

But now Sam really did fight for them. At least, according to them, there is no motivation for Sam to save the cane fields. Maybe he might have taken the opportunity to be accepted by the town folk and if it is true, then it is working.

The farmers started speaking up in support of his statement.

"Yes, guard commander, there is not a single guard who came to stop these people fighting and you are accusing someone who stopped this madness."

"I have been following this ground from the market street. You better have a proper explanation."

"Yes, if there is not even minimum safety for our fields and us, then what are we paying all these taxes for."

"There is no use in talking with the commander. It is best for us to go to the town head"s mansion. We just went along with the flow and just let it be, when the elves wronged, but they are now going after our farms and fields, this is not a good thing. We need to question the town head."

With one person speaking, the voices rose and soon the people are all riled up and before the guards could realize what is happening and the commander could come out of his daze, everything changed. All the farmers are walking towards the administration office along with Sam. The guards followed while carrying the fallen twenty people.

And soon they are before the town head"s office.

The current town head came out of the office when he heard the commotion and felt extremely conflicted. This plan was their doing and the people would just swallow the bitter pill as they couldn"t do much on their own.

But the situation will be different when the election is happening. At least during the election, they will have to do whatever the people say and most of the cane crop owners are civilians with voting rights.

And all of this happened because Sam just had to become the good Samaritan.

It took a lot of effort for the town head to control the urge to kill him in a single strike. He had to arrest all twenty trouble makers and leave Sam alone and he also has to promise that they would not make any concessions to anyone if they were to be found guilty in the investigation.

Sam and his team went back to the residence as if nothing happened. But there is tension in the air that made it hard for them to even talk.

But Sam behaved as if everything is normal. He didn"t even bother to talk to them and went back into the divine dimension as he played with the beasts for some time while clearing his head of the unnecessary thoughts so that he can think properly.

With this incident, he made an enemy out of the two factions at the same time. Faction 1 will not think about how he saves the cane fields which would bring the votes and the revenue for them, even if they remembered, in their minds, it is beneath Sam to hit their guards. So, all they would do is think of lightening the punishment but the punishment is compulsory.

As for faction 2, Sam clearly disrupted the plan they concocted. So it is obvious that he will become their target.

But currently, both the parties wouldn"t do anything to him. Because in the incident Sam and his friends are not the only ones that got involved, the farmers are involved too much and there is clearly the partic.i.p.ation of the ten guards from faction 1.

And then there is the negligence of the guards which also makes faction 2 involved as the guards are clearly under their control.

So, Sam is not exactly worried.

At least that is what Sam and his friends thought, but the envoy of faction 2 has different thoughts about it.

"We cannot make a move now. If anyone knows anything regarding this, we will be in a pickle."

The town head said to the Envoy so that he would stop taking any actions. This plan is envoy"s, to begin with and that backfired big time.

At least they are not completely found out. But if this goes on any clues were left out this election goes to s.h.i.t.

But the Envoy is thinking differently and the reason might be his fragile ego that got shattered because of Sam"s actions and the failure of the plan or it might be because he is really smart and thought that he could make use of the situation.

So, he decided to make another move, and this time he wanted to use Sam directly.

"You don"t have to worry about anything. Our involvement in the incident is not going to reveal that easily and it is hard to prove. But faction 1 has clear involvement in it and the ten guards will act as proof.

So, if we make use of this situation and make a move on Sam, it will fall on the heads of the faction one."

"But what if we failed and we lose some clues or even solid evidence behind. We will be done for."

"What can a Pre-transcendent stage cultivator do? He might be strong among his peers and deal with them easily, but there is only so much he can do if the difference in strength is absolute. Just don"t interfere in this and try to salvage the situation that has already happened.

I will take care of the future plans and steps we have to take."

Candidate 2 and the town head left the place.

If only the shadow mice that followed them out were not present then the plan would have been flawless.
