Chapter 1398 - Interrogation
Gail didn't ask Sam any further questions regarding this. He knew that Sam wants to kill Malgav but leaving him in a situation like this is worse than killing him in some ways.
He can think of many people who would end their lives than live like this.
Sam didn't stay there for long and went to Grivon's stray realm. There are some things he should be doing there and if his guess is right, he would be getting reports from both Giyon and Grivon on their current tasks.
And his guess is right. He got the reports and he became excited as soon as he saw what was in them.
Both Giyon and Grivon successfully finished the first step.
In fact, they even went above and beyond and did better than what he had anticipated.
Giyon's task was to disguise herself as a merchant from a faraway realm who wants to open a business within their target realm.
As Sam previously said, the permission to open a business within the capital of the realm which is the base of the organization they are targeting is actually as easy as it could get.
As long as Giyon could fork out enough money, things would go smoothly. Sam was content with normal permission, but Giyon went as far as getting a special agreement with a grand elder of the organization.
The agreement included a lot of tax subsidies and special privileges for the rest of the business permissions that would be needed for them to open shops at different places within the realm.
This would make the next step easier.
While things are like this with Giyon, Grivon is not doing that bad either.
They are entering the realm as a mercenary group and they are completely disguised.
He went as far as disguising his top-secret subordinates as the mercenaries within the group and their job is to get as much attention as possible at one particular place.
The gambling den of the organization.
The Gambling Den is actually the name of the business the organization is running and even though it is called a Den, it is actually a large palace-like structure that attracts gamblers like moths to flames.
This is one of the most profitable businesses of the organization as they took advantage of the prosperity of their realm and made the people go for this gambling den and lose most of their money.
This is one of the places where billions of spirit stones just change hands every day.
The best part is that this place will accept any and all kinds of bets based on what game a person is betting and the best of these gambling games is actually the beast fighting.
They would force two beasts of extremely similar kind and sometimes the same kind and make them fight until one of them is dead.
There is also another option that the two participants can bring their own beasts and put them up against each other. In fact, beast fighting has been some kind of profession here for years.
People bet on these fights based on the odds at the bookie table, which means they are betting against the house. But there are also other kinds of bets that people could make with the gambling den as witnesses.
The individual bets are actually very popular here. Both sides will bet something that they would be giving up and bet against each other and the Gambler's den will act as a witness for the bet. As long as one party didn't hold up the bet, they would make sure that the winner gets what he deserves, even if that means they have to kill the loser.
Until now, Gambling den has always been fair, going so far as to make a young master cough up the money that was owed in one of these bets forcefully.
Grivon's main objective is within this place.
One of the prime successor candidates of the organization has this obsession with gambling, particularly the Beast fighting arena to the point that he has several beasts he specially groomed for fights like these.
And he has never ever backed down from a challenge.
Of course, he didn't just win every time, but it could be said that he never stopped gambling here with his beasts.
Even though this problem might have caused him a lot of trouble normally, his position as the successor candidate and the status that position brings is helping him a lot.
No one bets way too big against this young master.
But Grivon is going to change that norm for their plan.
After arriving here, the first thing that Grivon did is go against the young master and he did so consistently in the past few days.
He constantly bet large amounts and lost several times.
That is what the plan is actually and only the last game did Grivon win. This stuck a chord with the young master as they both became acquainted and can now could be considered friends.
This is the perfect scenario Sam wanted and they executed these tasks perfectly.
Now, Sam needs to give them instructions regarding the next steps and the information required for formulating those steps was also sent to Sam through these reports.
Sam went to work immediately and started preparing what they should do next.
Giyon is going to sell something there.
The food business.
She is going to enter the restaurant business there under her banner's name and is going to target the specific places where the organization itself has the best food and best income regarding the food-related business.
As he was preparing this, Sam felt that it is very great of Sivan to have a particular focus on this one organization among the twelve as this brings him a shit load of money.
The fickle nature of Sivan helped him get some detailed information that is now going to help him take care of this organization far easier than it should have been.
As for Grivon, the task is a bit more troublesome. He would be disappearing for a bit from the realm and go on beast hunting in different realms.
It could be said that Sam's knowledge of beasts is second to none and it is not an exaggeration to say that he would be able to pick a beast that is the best counter for any beast that the young master has at his disposal.
So, he is preparing the beast list that Grivon needs to capture.
After preparing everything, he sent the information through the same channel they sent him the reports and retired to the lab.
He is so close to finishing up the task of making poisons and all he has to do is finish it up and conduct some testing on the dead bodies.
He stayed in the lab for the next two days and he managed to obtain the results he wanted.
But he cannot be sure that this would work on the live ones, so he would be needing to test it on them directly once.
While the situation is like this on this end, there are some results for the investigation conducted on the incident with the mercenaries.
They managed to catch the guy who altered the space gates and it is actually Senior Elder Ma who once again caught him.
Sam was surprised at why this guy is so interested in their affairs, but it seems like this time he really helped them a lot.
Gail took over the interrogation since his daughter is also involved directly in the plan.
He was taken to Giyon's basement and he asked what he wanted to know.
"Who asked you to tamper with the space gates?"
"I…. I.."
The guy was stuttering and Gail continued.
"I knew that it is the job of some high-level internal person within the clan since they went as far as blocking my entrance into the planet with some serious spatial restrictions.
I don't know how Ma caught you, but you must have been promised some asylum somewhere safe. Far away from me, but what the person that instigated to do this forgot to tell you is that if there is a possibility of learning the truth, I would never resort to extreme measures, like torture and death.
And there is also a reason why I am still keeping you alive instead of just killing you and obtaining information from the soul search.
It is just so that you could be useful later and we could cut some deal of sorts. If you cooperate and help me flush out the guy who put you through this, I would then leave you alive. Do you understand?"
The man who was covered in sweat immediately nodded and started speaking. But when he heard this information, Gail couldn't help but frown.
He knew that someone big might have been involved and it couldn't be wrong, but from the looks of it, that someone big has used a very different and unconventional way to put himself out of suspicion and leave deadends for their investigation.
