The team sneaked out of the city to go that property. Since Sia killed that demon, she delayed the news travelling back to the Azure Demon family. So, they are sure that they wouldn’t take any action imdiately.
They will wait for at least a few hours or even for that night.
At least that is what they thought, but as soon as they arrived at the scene and looked at the whole area from far away, they were surprised. There is a team of Azure demons who seed to have just arrived.
The leader of the team is seriously questioning the person-in charge and his team mber are looking at the dead demon’s hiding spot and a little deeper into that forbidden path to take a proper look and see if they could find any clues.
But Sia did a clean job and there are no traces left. She didn’t even leave a single drop of blood.
Sam and his team observed the actions of the demon team. They didn’t seem to have found any clues and they decided to stay within the camp for the night before they continued the investigation the next day.
Sam sent out a shadow mouse to the tent this demon team is staying in to see what they are discussing and after an house, the shadow mouse returned.
He got the information and kept his team mbers in the loop.
"They got the news of this guy’s death imdiately, but it seems like they have been delayed because of so differences in opinions in the upper echelons and the team formation was delayed. They are cursing those higher-ups and blaming them for the lack of clues.
Tomorrow morning, they are going into the forbidden path. Until they reach halfway towards the forbidden zone and look for any possible clues.
Their job is to not find Sark directly, they only have one job and that is to find proof that Sark went to the forbidden zone."
Saber Monarch was confused and asked.
"The death of one demon is not proof enough? He was not stationed at the edge of the camp, he was inside the path and he was dead there, what more proof do they want?"
Sam chuckled and answered.
"A proof that wouldn’t let any other person give an excuse. It seems like the forbidden zone sothing even the upperechelons don’t want to visit. So, so of the weaker willed but high authoritative people will create excuses and rationalization and so ti deliberately act dumb to stop any advances into the forbidden zone.
They couldn’t be convinced. The only proper way convince them is to show so irrefutable proof."
"How do you know that?"
"Every organization has them. They are the ones who doesn’t want to get out of the comfort zone that was being provided by their position. They would go against anything that could pose any risk to the current position of the organization and dream of the world staying as it is, so they can sleep peacefully knowing that he is still sothing. They are cowards who disguise themselves as rational thinkers."
Sam explained as he thought calmly.
"Seems like you have a grudge against them?"
"Not a grudge, but I despise them quite a bit. I had to endure a fair share of these guys. Anyway, back to our current situation at hand. They are going to move tomorrow at dawn. So, co up with a plan."
And that set off a discussion as everyone tried to co up with a proper plan while Sam only listened. The boon of having a competent team. He can finally relax and let them do so thinking too.
After an hour of discussion they finally ca up with a plan and surprisingly, Sam doesn’t even need to be present for that.
They didn’t even include him. When he asked why, the reply dumbfounded him.
"Sorry boss, you are too weak and delicate."
He didn’t know what to say. He was stunned and shocked to say the least. Because this is the first ti since he ca to this world and had an organization or employees that worked for him, say he is weak. Of course, the only who didn’t say he was weak is Agar as she knew better than the rest to not say a freak who can use all kinds of weird things to kill stronger people as weak.
But Sam didn’t feel offended, in fact he was quite alright with this arrangent.
So, after they snuck towards the forbidden path one after the other, the team went into their hiding positions and Sam stayed in a hiding position at the edge of the forest nearby.
As soon as the team left, Sam imdiately entered the divine dinsion while keeping an eye on the surroundings through the crystal table.
But his main focus was the demon body.
Even though he was not offended by the team when they said he was weak, he was reminded. He needs to speed up his cultivation, he let Yanwu consu all the remaining Solar Fragnts and took a look at the demon corpse.
He doesn’t know if he could Raiju with this. If anything untoward happens to Raiju, he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself, but he could clearly sense that the Raiju bloodline is riling up.
He took a deep breath and collected so of the blood before taking a sip of it himself. He decided to test it on himself and if it is indeed poisonous he has Mia’s bloodline.
But as soon as he drank that sip, his vampire bloodline and raiju bloodline were extrely excited and started absorbing it, but since it is blood the Vampire bloodline got most of it.
Sam could feel the spiritual energy being absorbed into his core. He then cut off a small piece of flesh. Eating a humanoid looking creature is not sothing he wants to do, but he didn’t want Raiju taking any risks and grilled it completely under the fla until it is not recognizable and swallowed it directly.
The overcharring clearly reduced so effects but he could see the Raiju bloodline absorbing energy rapidly.
He took the corpse to Raiju and as soon as he slled it, he jumped right in. It seems like these demons are a direct source of food for the Raijus.
When the rest of the beasts saw Yanwu and Raiju having a feast, they beca sulky. It took a few hours for him to try and convince them that he would find sothing.
Raiju finished the corpse and only left a few bones on the side and licked Sam is face asking for more.
For so weird reason, he felt a bit of sympathy for these demons. They are rulers of a realm and all they could considered for his beasts are as food.
He spent the rest of the ti researching the bones of the demons as he felt they are different. They are indeed a bit different, so he threw them into the sea urchin pond to make so spikes out of them.
He was done with it and started observing the crystal table while he tinkered with the new holographic formation he made.
And the next morning at dawn, as soon as the team arrived at their ambush point, the team worked perfectly well and dealt with the whole team within a few minutes. It was extrely swift and precise operation.
They only left the leader alive.
Sam finally ca out and watched as the Saber Monarch showed his interrogation skills. It is plain and simple instead of threatening the guy with pain or torture and asking questions, he sealed that guy’s mouth and tortured him first, while asking questions.
It was effective and they got the information pretty quickly. Because there is not much begin with.
The team leader doesn’t know much about the forbidden zone. He was only given orders to reach half the path and look for the proof.
What he does know is that after he gave the concrete proof that Sark is here, an elder would directly go through this path to find Sark.
"How strong are you elders?" Sam asked the demon.
"They are strong. Most of them are at Initial stage of Astral Plane Transcendence."
"So, which elder will co if you give the proof?"
"I don’t know."
"Do you have any thods to send an ergency ssage?"
"Yes."
Sam smiled and gave so instructions to Saber Monarch after checking the ssage sending ssage. Even though it is called an ergency ssage, it takes so ti to set up. They didn’t have ti when Sam’s team attacked them which made it impossible.
Saber monarch used his convincing skills and made the leader send a fake ssage back to the demon family and went into hiding.
But this ti they didn’t stay in the outskirts. They wanted to go in a bit. But as soon as they stepped a few ters deep, they sensed so strong presence coming towards them running at fullspeed.
