1803 Stirring Trouble
Maya was stunned.
She hurriedly fixed her dress and came out of the tent.
“Are you sure? We are going to the magman Clan?”
She is indeed shocked. Until now, Sam’s involvement in this whole thing is not revealed completely. So, he still had some leeway with moving around and causing trouble in different cities.
But the situation now is different. Lucifer revealing that Maya has a guardian is one thing, the troublesome part is the fact that Sam caused too much commotion as he moved around on Harbinger when he kidnapped Dayus.
He was way too high profile. There is no way, people haven’t noticed his actions. Particularly, when he was kidnapping Dayus and threatening Shijin, he was extremely open and just the marks he left behind with Harbinger are very apparent to anyone.
Right now, many clans are looking into the situation trying to guess who this person is. One thing they are sure of is that this person is not exactly a part of the seven clans that had the children.
And every clan knows that he doesn’t belong to their clan.
This external variable and the power it showed is not something they could look lightly up on after all. So, they are all extremely vigilant.
…..
It wouldn’t take long before they connected this external variable to be the guardian of Maya and her children.
This small pocket time he has before they realize that he is that external variable, Sam could make them more and more confused.
He decided on the Magman clan because of this.
The Magman clan wouldn’t be expecting this and neither would the rest of the clans that came looking for him in the cave.
Sam didn’t need to convince Maya too much. By now, she is trusting him completely. So, after little to no persuasion, she left with him to the Magman city. Here, Sam is very well known, so he had to disguise himself a bit.
The city is currently in lockdown and not a single inn is accepting any customers and the people who already joined the inn are actually not allowed to leave either.
So, when Sam arrived in the city through the Dimensional drifter, he didn’t cause too much commotion. He arrived in his old room in the inn where he stayed before.
That inn would be the last place the Magman clan would search for him.
He didn’t do anything there for a while, he just let Maya and the children relax and he just waited for the time to pass. Of course, he sent the souls and shadows out to do some scouting while he is waiting.
And soon, the time for the next reveal arrived.
Five more clans got the news and the first three lost the location information. Sam even saw the clan leader of the Magman clan arriving with only two people following him since the rest are all dead.
Sam is actually amused by the next five clans that knew his current location.
All five of them are relatively close to the Magman clan. It wouldn’t take more than an hour to hour and a half for them to arrive there and three of them are the clans that didn’t have a kid at all. The other two clans still have a kid each.
One of them is the Olympian organization that is being guarded by Noah, the same organization that is almost in seclusion with the rest of the world and the remaining one is an organization with a child and no player is guarding it.
Sam knew for sure that the Olympian city is not going to make a move. If he knew Noah as well as he thought and with the presence of Kumar beside her, they are smart enough to figure out that the guardian is him and pissing him off will be detrimental to them.
They should hope that Sam wouldn’t hit him too hard, so they are not going to think of ways to attack him.
The three clans that didn’t have a child are definitely going to come. Even if they have to join forces together, they are going to arrive at this city and they might even arrive almost at the same time.
As for the fifth clan that already has a child, it is still unclear whether they would arrive or not.
But Sam didn’t really care too much. Whether it is the three forces, four forces are all of the five forces arrived here, he would be able to achieve the goal he wanted in the Magman city.
And within an hour, his expectations were met when he saw that three different forces surrounded the Magman city. They are stationed at a distance away and the leaders of the clan sent envoys to the magman city.
The Magman city is in high alert to begin with so the city lord who just arrived in a gloomy mood after losing so many subordinates was furious when he heard this.
He directly received the three envoys.
Three of these envoys are actually the young masters of the respective clans.
“What are you guys doing here?”
“Magman clan head, we received news that Maya is within your city? We also received news that she already managed to obtain three of her children back including the child she had with your son.
May we know if it is true?”
Magman clan head was shocked when he heard this.
“What the fuck are you saying? This is complete nonsense. How can Maya be alive? She is long dead.”
He reacted furiously, but in his heads, the gears are running. He knew for a fact that Maya is alive and their information about her children is completely accurate. He also believed that Maya might really be in the city.
But he doesn’t know why or how she is here.
‘Their gods must have revealed this info to them. I need to be careful.’
He thought of himself and spoke.
“I don’t know who spouted this bullshit with you. But Maya, that woman has already died. You can go and meet that barbaric brute and find out where her remains are if you are interested.
My clan’s child is indeed missing, but it is one of the bastards of other clans that stole our child from us. I am going to find and kill them myself. Now, I suggest your clans retreat from my city.
Or, I won’t respond in kind.
Even if I am not as powerful as your three clans combined, it is my home turf, and defending is much easier for me here rather than you attacking me.”
He said those and left decisively.
Meanwhile, the three young masters just exchanged a glance and left on their own way.
After they left, the Magman clan leader went back to his residence and paced around anxiously. He didn’t understand how the situation turned out. But he is inclined to believe that Maya is there along with the guardian.
And he also felt that Sam might be that person since Kumar mentioned that Sam had ways to enter the city without alerting anyone.
So, now he is thinking of how to utilize this situation to his advantage.
From his previous experience at the cave, he is a bit frightened about what Sam would do. He is ruthless and resourceful and he almost lost one-third of his subordinates.
When his train of thought came to this, he became alert. If setting up traps and causing some violence is within Sam’s character, then based on the previous experience his city would be the place where the trap would be set.
This made him vigilant.
He couldn’t risk his whole city being crashed just like that. So, he sent orders to search for Sam. Of course, not openly. If the other clans noticed that he is openly moving, there is no way they would just let him be.
They will definitely think that he is preparing to fight them and will start a fight.
But what he didn’t expect is at this exact moment, some news has traveled to Shijin. The news is that three clans are camping out of Magman city and the reason for that camping is the presence of Maya and her kids in the city.
Shijin’s information network is as active as it could be and when he received this news, he immediately relayed it to his father. He still had some redeeming qualities that made his father tolerate his existence in the clan.
And this information gathering is one of the major ones.
The clan also knows that the Magman clan also received the news of Maya and the guardian being in the cave.
So, a thought crossed his mind.
What if, just what if the Magman clan leader managed to find Sam and Maya along with the kids and took them away?
Once this thought crossed his mind, he couldn’t let it go. He immediately left the place and this time, he only took a few elite forces focusing on quality instead of quantity.
As soon as his father left, Shijin heaved a sigh hoping this would gain him some points. But at this moment, he received another piece of news from his information network which made him frown.
