Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam was stunned. Because of the line up at the entrance.

Two people are in a staredown. One of them is a person Sam is familiar with. He is the Marshall who escorted Sam to the private room.

Behind him, Nayana stood with her arms crossed and face filled with frustration.

On the other side, there is another middle-aged man, behind whom there is a young man whose face was filled with anger and fury.

He didn't know both of them at all but he recognized that all the guests from the auction are there watching the scene.

"Minister Brian, you better tell your son to behave, or next time he wouldn't escape scot-free."

Marshall said in a cold tone.

"Scot free? Marshall, are you threatening me that you would make a move on my son or are you saying that your daughter Nayana is going to deal with him?" The other middle-aged man opposite Marshall replied.

"Do you think that we have so much free time like you? My daughter is so busy with the auction house and the Trading chamber, why would she go out of my way to deal with your flower boy?

In fact, if she didn't interfere today, your precious son would have been killed and trust that death wouldn't be pleasant at all. And here you are being ungrateful for our good deed and even smearing our name."

Marshall said in a stern yet proud voice. Sam was a bit surprised. He didn't expect Nayana who is only a Great realm cultivator be in such a high position, but this also reinforced his opinion of Arian. Here, cultivation is only a symbol of strength, not a factor that decides everything and Nayana being in charge of trading of auctions shows that she is more capable in this area.

"Who are you calling a flower boy? Marshall, you better think before you speak? You are talking about the nephew of the Emperor himself. What are you implying by calling the relatives of the emperor a flower boy?"

Sam almost puked at this. Can someone be so shameless?

From that middle-aged man���s words, he can get that this boy is a relative to the emperor but from what Marshall said, he is this man's son.

Did he become, your son or nephew of the emperor first? How can someone be this shameless?

"If the Emperor knew this, he would have already been skinned alive right in the middle of the streets."

Marshall sneered and then only he noticed that Sam is here. His expression changed immediately and he greeted with a smile.

After some pleasantries, Sam wanted to leave the place. He wanted to deal with the new elemental poisons he got. He needs to upgrade panthers so their potential would increase. As for this conflict, he is not that interested.

But he realized that is a pipe dream. Because the middle-aged man's main target is Sam and then only Sam realized who that young man is. He is the guy who got into a bidding war with Watt and now his father is here.

"Hey you, do you think you can leave just like that? How dare you humiliate my son? Just because you have some wealth do you think you can do anything? My son can buy whatever he wants and I can pay for him. So, what is it that you are putting him on the spot?

Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are rich? I am telling you, you better handover whatever you bought. Otherwise, you would be facing my wrath."

Sam didn't even know how to react, this guy is clearly trying to overwhelm Sam with his speech, without giving him a chance to react at all. Typical shameless politician.

Sam just stood there and let the man finish his part and said.

"So, what do you want to do now?"

"You handover the items and apologize."

"Not going to happen. Anything else?"

Sam just reacted as straight forward as he can. Killing the conversation. Minister didn't know how to react, he has kept a lot of words ready to reply for whatever Sam had to say.

Isn't it normal that a person would try to argue if someone was unreasonable to them? Why is this guy acting like it is nobody's business? This is the only thought in his mind.

"If there is nothing else, I am leaving."

Sam turned to leave and obviously, he was stopped.

"You, do you even know who I am, do you know who my son is? We are the relatives of the emperor, disrespecting us is the same as disrespecting the emperor."

Sam raised an eyebrow and said.

"Then, are you implying that what your son did, is emperor's will as well?"

Minister thought for a second and said.

"Yes."

He didn't know he just stepped in the trap. He didn't think that Sam is someone important and he didn't even bother to know who he is, he has been enjoying everything going his way in the imperial capital, so he didn't care what the other guy thinks.

"Then, I would deal this with the emperor himself." As Sam said these words, Marshall's face turned serious.

"Sir Sam. This is not what he meant, he is an idiot don't take his words seriously. Please, just forget this ever happened, I will take him away."

Sam didn't reply and just looked at him calmly.

The minister though is not happy, he started yelling.

"Marshall, you better watch your words, who are you calling an idiot?"

The minister is having none of it.

At this moment, Marshall couldn't control the situation anymore, so he took the communication token and sent a message.

The minister is ranting nonstop and bragging about his position status and stuff, Sam just stood there. He knew his position in this empire very well.

He is a time bomb. But the area of the explosion isn't determined yet and Arc has to make sure that the area of the explosion is not his empire.

Meanwhile, Sam is thinking about he hasn't seen a piece of work in a while. He was just thinking of the positive traits of the empire and now appeared a guy who is about to give him a new opinion.

Soon, the rant came to an end and that is because another person came into view.

The Emperor Arc came and everyone became silent. They are just thinking about how Sam would escape from this shameless guy because all of the suffered in one way or another under this guy and they thought that Sam would another one of the victims, but their anticipation is unfounded.

Emperor ignored everyone and went to Sam and greeted him.

"Mr. Sam. I hope that you liked the auction and I heard that you bought the finale. I really appreciate your patronage."

"Never mind that. But I heard that you don't want to let me keep the things I bought. Of course, they didn't say it directly, but they did say that not giving in to them is the same as not giving in to you. So, I am afraid that I have to leave the products behind."

When Arc heard these words, he shook his head. Sam is doing this purposefully. He is making sure that the emperor owes him at all points and not the other way around.

Now he just tried to make the foolish actions of this stupid minister as his will. It is hard to deal with cunning people.

"You are Jesting Mr. Sam. With all that you own, would I be making a move on something so simple? If I wanted, I will try to steal something bigger. I will deal with this matter, please return and rest. Tomorrow is the ceremony and you will be having an early start."

Sam looked at the Minister and said.

"You better think before you speak, next time I wouldn't be this patient." With that, he left and the crowd was also dispersed, the bustling street was empty with only a few people standing in front of the auction house.

"Brother-in-law, how can you let him go. He insulted us…" Arc stopped the minister's rant in a single glare.

"I am telling you. I was most afraid that you would encounter him and my worst fear came to pass. You really did encounter him. He is the one person I don't want to make an enemy and you are pushing him to be the empire's enemy.

You better know your place and how you became a minister. I am already being lenient to your son and you just because of my sister. But in this issue, I wouldn't side with you no matter what. He is the worst enemy I can make."

Minister was unwilling but he couldn't do anything about it. So, he left the place along with his son.

The conflict was nipped before escalating and that even required the emperor's presence.

Marshall has seen the whole destruction of Orion from a first-person perspective, so he knew what Sam is capable of and he knew that he can volatile easily.

It is a good thing that he called emperor, otherwise, things would have taken an unusual turn.

Meanwhile, after returning to their residence, Sam went to his room, while Watt guided the two people to the hall.

Philip and Jack followed there curiously.

Watt stood up and circled around Felicia as if examining her. He noticed that the two siblings are extremely similar and it seems that they are twins.

After some examination, he took out the two slave tokens which restraints their movements and broke them.

"I don't need these slave tokens; I am not extremely fond of them." He said then and after a brief pause continued. The siblings are surprised by his actions. But he didn't care.

"You, from now on, you are a personal assistant of Boss. You will deal with all the appointments, meetings, and people who come to meet him. Other than that, you have to remind him to take three meals and sleeping time. But you cannot disturb when he is researching…"

After another half-an-hour of ranting some duties, he sent the twins away.

Philip and Jack are stumped at the side.

"What are you doing? Watt."

"Well, don't you think that boss needs someone to take care of his needs? Some of them which we cannot fulfill." Watt said in a low voice.

Both of them were stumped again and with a slight pause, they started laughing until their stomachs were hurt.
