Sam still held Malgav in the headlock and looked at the old man coldly. He was really stunned and afraid for a second. If not for the fact that Gail ca and saved him in the nick of the ti, he would have died without even knowing what has happened to him.
"You might want to leave that guy. Gail might be stronger than by a long shot, but he wouldn't be able to stop from injuring you. So, it would be better if you let that guy go."
The old man spoke to Sam who is still in shock. Sam looked at Malgav reluctantly, but he knew that he wouldn't be able to kill him now. He might be bold enough to verbally humiliate Clan's leader, but that verbal humiliation is rely him stating his stance, now killing Malgav here will violate so serious rules of the clan and they would have so serious legitimate reason to deal with him.
Even though he wanted chaos, that doesn't include this level death threat to him. But he is already pretty satisfied with what he had done to Malgav now. The old man might make him let go, but he had already done what should be done to make Malgav's life living hell one more ti.
So, he just let go and weakly stood up.
Gail looked at the old man coldly and asked.
"It seems like you really didn't slack off from your duty, but I wonder why my daughter and the kids that ca with her weren't protected with the sa zeal."
"I wasn't here at that ti and by the ti I ca back, that fellow already took care of everything."
Gail just scoffed and turned back.
"Let's get out of here."
Sam nodded and limped weakly. After a few steps, he started manifesting spiritual energy around himself to help him walk a bit more normally. He couldn't believe how weak and stiff his muscles were, considering just a few minutes ago, he was jumping around like crazy.
Looking at Sam's struggle, Gail just picked him and both of them joined Jyon and the kids far away.
Then the whole group went to the nearest space gate to leave the place. They went back to Giyon's residence.
"Can you just leave on the table inside the lab?"
Sam asked in a husky and low tone.
Gail nodded and placed him on the table.
Sam closed his eyes once again and started controlling the spiritual energy in the surroundings. Soon a few thick needles manifested in the air above him along with a small blade all made of condensed spiritual energy.
The blade moved quickly as it moved around and cut off his robes while the needles moved a bit slowly as they reached various points on his body and they made so holes at different positions.
The needles created these small incisions from which the black sludge is coming. The whole table and the floor below the table was soaked in this sludge and after a long ti the sludge coming out of his body is followed by so blood too.
Only after letting enough blood out that could almost barely make him passout, he opened his eyes and weakly took out the injector.
Gail looked at his shivering hand and took the injector from it. Sam nodded gratefully and took out a vial which gail took injected into Sam.
The wounds which are not too big to begin with started healing rapidly at a visible pace and before they knew it, Sam is as good as new, at least visually. But he is still feeling a lot weaker than he want to as he almost lost a lot of blood.
He took out a communication token and contacted a subordinate.
"Collect all the sludge from the floor and place it in a separate container. Call a skilled water elent user and make them separate the sludge and the blood as well as the impurities that ca from the floor and the surroundings.
Tell them make it as clean as possible."
The subordinate nodded and left.
Gail walked out of the room after the subordinate and Sam wiped his body clean off of the blood and wore a new set of clothes before walking out.
He then contacted another subordinate.
"I need the Blood Venison stew. Tell the chef to make it as fast as possible."
When he reached the mainhall, he saw the kids still lurking around there.
"What are you guys still doing here? Get back to your residence and take rest. I will start classes for you from day after tomorrow. You don't need to do anything to busy yourself."
The kids left silently and Jyon looked at Sam's pale face and wanted to ask him about sothing, but even she left after so thoughts.
After they are gone, Sam sat at a table and called the specter out.
"Give the mories you got from them."
The specter did as it was told and Sam started studying the mories. But there is not much to gain from them.
The only thing he knew is that Maglav clearly doesn't have anything to do with the attack.
The whole plan is like this, the rcenaries would arrive at the Gaja Clan's city and will use the space gate they were told to. They would be taken to a different location because the space gate would be tampered with, they need to attack the little kids that would be present there.
If a person cos and defends the kids, they need to kill that person no matter what and capture his soul with a special device, but if that person didn't, they would have to kidnap a couple of children and leave the place with so transference tokens.
There is no information on who actually placed the assignnt as they took it through a diator, there is no actual information on how the space gate changes and who made the changes, there is also no information on who inford them on what space gate they should enter, because the ssage ca in the form an unanimous letter.
They didn't see who delivered it, nor did they bother who sent it. All they knew is that they have received the paynt and they just need to finish the assignnt.
Sam compiled all the information and sent it to Giyon's and Grivon's subordinates to investigate and on Gail's request he laid down the whole thing in front of him.
"This is odd, there is no way this is a coincidence that Malgav and Jyon just decided to go on a vacation at the sa ti and from the looks of it, there is no way Jyon even had the thought of vacationing at that place, soone must have definitely put that there.
From this info, the rcenary took the job a week ago and the other party must have known that she would be vacationing a week ago.
This doesn't make any sense at all."
"It would after the investigation is complete."
After going through all of this, Sam was about to go to the dining table to finish the stew he asked for, when Gail spoke.
"I should really thank you for saving Jyon, but I am quite surprised that you let go of Malgav right away. I was almost sure that you would kill him."
"I didn't essentially let him go actually. I did a lot to him within that ti fra. You will know soon."
With that he finished the stew to recover so of the blood and went back to lab as he concocted toxins. That day's experience gave him so new ideas and he believed he would be able to make these work.
He didn't co out of the lab that night and the next day, a word spread among the clan mbers.
Malgav who just recovered from a literal ball-busting injury is now paralyzed.
The healers are unable to do anything as it is sothing related to his spine and any treatnt they have planned would injure the spine even more and there might be a chance that he wouldn't recover anyti soon.
Sam ca out after two days from the lab and Gail imdiately asked him.
"What did you really do to him? Grand Elder Pon's son barged into the house yesterday evening and almost made a fuss. He is really pissed."
"I reset his spine in a very different way and reduced his bone density. His spine is now extrely brittle and if they try to reset it, the bones would break and it would be impossible for you guys to increase the bone density without breaking it and healing it back again.
Now if they really do break the spine, the bone would be fractured too much. It would turn into very small pieces.
They would have to take them out surgically and regenerate the whole spine? But how many healers have really regenerated a spine before?
I would like to see how they would solve this problem."
