Chapter 2101 Payback
Dayus landed in the street out of thin air.
He finally heaved a sigh and started walking to the Zeus Academy. At the same time, Sam contacted all of his friends.
"Everyone, wear the flaming skulls uniform and disguise yourself. We are going to do a crackdown and make sure leave the special token I gave you behind after you are done with them."
That was the message. Sam's friends moved. Including Night Ghost who has always been laying low. They arrived at their special room in the Hub, disguised themselves and used a special attachment Sam gave them.
This attachment is an extra accessory that works in tandem with the wrist band they have. They can use this to reach their targets with spatial transference.
At this moment, each one of them have around ten targets each.
Sam is also participating in this. He used the spatial transferences and appeared in the restaurant.
"WHAT THE FUCK?"
Sam landed on the table and got a huge reaction from his target. It is a first year student of the Zeus Academy. He is neither a special target like on the list of Stone's target, nor does he have huge prospects.
He is just another negligible first grader who will sooner or later dropout because he hit his peak.
Sam extended his hand and an energy bullet was formed.
*BOOM*
He blasted the energy bullet on the chest and sent the target through a wall and finally outside. A huge hole appeared on the target's chest and he is barely breathing.
Sam took out a small cube and threw it in the middle of that hole before dropping another token to the ground and leaving the place.
"What the fuck happened? Who is that person?" One of the customers asked in shock.
One of them walked to the student who was in last breath and noticed the cube.
"This guy is from the Zeus Academy and the attacker is definitely from flaming skulls. That robe, mask and the cube, I have heard about them before.
He is definitely from the Flaming Skulls, he must be here on a contract."
"Quick, we need to inform the City guard."
The owner of the restaurant prompted the waiter to run and inform the city guard. Sam who disappeared from the restaurant reappeared inside a brother. A young man is lost in pleasure as he was engaging in intercourse with a woman who from the expression was definitely pretending.
He aimed his hand and blasted his chest open, just like how he did with the previous target and once again, he dropped the cube.
When he dropped the cube here, the cube in the chest of the first target was activated.
A huge flame popped up from it and engulfed the guy. The flame looked chaotic, but up on observation one can see that it is targeting the meridians.
At this moment, the city guard finally came and hurriedly tried to put the flame out while carrying the guy for emergency treatment.
Even before they reached the treatment place, Sam already moved to the third target. Once again, chest open and a cube dropped.
The second target started burning. The brothel room which was filled with the other prostitutes and customers was caught on fire. The city guard hurried up and tried to help the target.
They could see that he is on the last breath even while burning, they could see the target writhe in pain like a rodent set on fire.
Within next fifteen minutes similar incidents kept on happening and they are not just caused by Sam. Simultaneously more than ten people are doing and within a couple of hours over a hundred students of Zeus Academy were attacked, set on fire and even left a message.
There were tokens left behind every attack and they read one thing.
"Payback for the Pseudo-hell – Sam."
The city guard was furious. They knew Sam, he was the one that started the chaos in the region which used to be fairly peaceful. Of course, Sam himself was not directly involved in many incidents, however, they attributed Stone's obsessive challenges of Trial by Combat were inspired by Sam and gave him the credit of their hatred.
Of course, if only they knew how on point they are.
In fact, they might even be crediting him with less than what he actually deserves.
They cursed under their breaths and collected all the targets. Even though they managed to save some of them, they were unable to keep their cultivations intact. Because the flames burned down their meridian networks and made it impossible for them to cultivate anymore.
Their muscle fibers were also subjected to this intense burning. They wouldn't recover.
The whole Olympian region is shook. It is normal for fights to break out in the city. Even though Stone's activities made the fights more frequent, it was still not far off from the norm.
However, more than fifty people were attacked within a couple of hours and nobody even knows who the actual perpetrator is. Of course, many believed it was Sam because of the note left behind and this prompted a meeting in the headquarters of the City guard.
"What do we need to do, Sir? This situation has went way too out of hand. If Sam was really behind these attacks and we let him get away with it, the whole city will be in a state of panic. The most number of citizens in the city belong to the Grade 1 level, that is the demographic with the highest number.
And they are our current victims.
If they all leave, the whole city will be laid bare and our rating for this year will hit rock bottom. The revenue of the city will also take a huge hit."
One of the subordinates in charge of City administration explained. Even though the Academy realm is created to groom the soldiers for Gods' armies, the presence of the citizens that don't actually belong to the Academies also play a significant role in running the city.
They are entities that circulate the currency within. Just like how population is a resource in any other territory, the city in the Academy realm is the same.
And these administrators and guards who are actually the lackeys of the gods are also in a competition behind the scenes. There are some serious consequences if a city didn't generate enough revenue and meet certain conditions.
The captain of the city guard sighed.
"We need to take action regarding this. We will go to the Gambler's Academy and talk to the Student Union. We need to at least take him to trial."
"But don't you think he will just escape with the same trial of combat situation? As far as I know, there is no person in the Grade 1 that could fight with Sam. Even white, the top student of Zeus Academy was defeated by him in the tournament.
Unless that mysterious guy from the Flaming skulls steps forward, there is not chance of defeating him."
This caused everyone else to pause once again. The captain thought for a few moments and gritted his teeth.
"I have a way, even if it is despicable, I will do it. We cannot let this matter go. Sam definitely has to pay the price."
"Captain, there is also the possibility that Sam has nothing to do with this, right? Just that tablet is not enough of an evidence. In fact, it falls short by way too much.
He will just ask us the proof that the tablets belong to him and that's it, we cannot refute it."
"Even if he doesn't have anything to do with it, we still need to make him bear the brunt. We will launch an investigation to see if we can find the people behind the attacks.
If we cannot find them, then Sam has to sacrifice himself for our sakes."
The captain then continued to explain his plan. Half of the team was led by the Vice captain of the force and they went to the Zeus Academy, while the other half of the team led by the Captain of the force went to the Gambler's Academy.
At the same time, on both ends the meeting between the City guard and the Student Unions have been conducted.
While things were like this, Dean who was still interrogating the two Elders and was on verge of losing his patience, got the news.
When he heard the details that the tablet with Sam's signature was found there, his heart turned cold. He gritted his teeth in anger and destroyed the communication token.
He looked at the two Elders with boundless killing intent.
He stopped himself from killing them and walked out of the secret room, before heading to his office.
And outside his office, Dayus who has been waiting impatiently for the past few hours stood.
However, Dean couldn't give a shit about a youth in front of his office at this moment and ignored him.
"Dean, do you know how long I have been waiting for you? How can you ignore me like this?"
Dayus called out to the Dean and the whole atmosphere froze for a second. "A student is this arrogant? Can't you see the Dean is busy right now?"
One of the instructors yelled and slapped Dayus across the face.
"Kneel down and reflect on yourself. The first graders are getting more and more unbridled every single day."
Dayus who got slapped on the face and was forced to kneel, frowned and gritted his teeth. Rage surged out of his heart and he looked at the instructor with a cold gaze.
