As soon as the Leader 3 arrived in the realm and started investigating, Sam let one of his puppets leave a scroll near his residence and called it back along with the rest of the puppets he deployed.
It is about time for him to leave anyway. But before that, he painted a picture of perfect scenario at the spot where the mountain collapsed.
Now they have to go the leader 1's territory and do something from that side.
After reaching the city where Kiran and Vidyut made a mess, Sam let all the teammates go into the Ice divine dimension. He went to the Black Curtain Inn and asked a room. He paid a large price to get the most luxurious treatment the Black Curtain can offer and acted like a young master.
For two days, he chatted with the manager and came into contact with him at all times. On the second day, he started his plan.
He used a holographic projection technology to create a room exactly the same as the one manager used as an office. The table, the wood, the chair and everything is in the exact position.
Inside the room Kiran who disguised as the manager stood and started giving instructions to one of the subordinates. The subordinate is also an holographic projection and he is currently kneeling with his head down while listening to the instructions.
The subordinate is same as one of the dead bodies that Kiran and Vidyut brought.
They recorded the whole made up scenario and even let Kiran switch sides with the subordinate to speak while they made the manager into holographic projection.
The conversation is actually quite simple. First, the manager gave the instructions regarding some special explosives they got and how they should be used to defeat the leader 3 branch manager and deal with the investigators that came.
The subordinate understood all, but he asks, why he was given such a heavy task of leading the team even though he is not exactly the strongest of them.
The manager just brushed him off saying that he has some reasons.
Then another video was taken with the subordinate hidden in another place whispering.
"Master it seems like my cover was blown. I think the Leader 1 is trying to use this opportunity to spark some conflict between Leader 3 and you. That is why I am recording this video. I don't know if I will get a chance to send it to you. I hope you can find it. I overheard that the manager is already making preparations to make sure that my death looks legitimate and avoid suspicions."
With that the video ended.
Sam used two different recording crystals and didn't use the one he or his organization factory made. They are the most normal recording crystals one could ever find.
After finishing this, he went back to the Leader 3's territory and observed how he is doing with the investigation.
In the past two days while Sam is fabricating some evidence, the Leader 3 who found the scroll left behind by Sam already found the dead bodies of the Leader 1's people and his own in the mountain rubble. There are some traces of battle around the area.
He easily identified that they belonged to Leader 1 with the things in the spatial ring.
But they are still looking for more clues as the people went missing.
Sam was really surprised by this.
He was actually half expecting the Leader 3 to rush to Leader 1's territory and start a war after finding this out. After all, the whole scene was as natural as it could get. Sam didn't even clean up any traps he left, except for erasing the traces of his presence there.
But the Leader 3 is focusing more on the scroll that was left behind by Sam. He is feeling suspicious thinking whether someone is trying to screw him over. He believed that there is a great chance, someone is using him to clash with the Leader 1. It might be the plot of another leader.
That is why he held back and tried to find any other clues.
As they are searching around, Sam set up the recording crystals in the vicinity. He placed them in a obvious place, but the people can still understand why they couldn't find it until now. Once the recording crystals were found, the Leader 3 was stunned.
He is still suspicious of the scroll, but the recorded evidence is right in front of him to see. After all, he never heard or seen someone forging a recording in a crystal. But now that he saw this, and from the fact that it was found within the vicinities of the collapsed mountain, he is thinking that someone might have secretly helped him get this.
At least he believed so. Even though he couldn't understand what their motives might be, at least he is sure that the leader 1 indeed had something to do with this.
He immediately sent one of his trusted elites to the leader 1's territory. He gave him his badge so that he can look through the assassin registry in which they would record all the assassinations they took up and which assassin was assigned to each job.
The subordinate went there the very day and looked through the registry. Even though the manager didn't like this, he doesn't have the authority to stop someone with a leader badge on them.
He could only welcome them to look through the records.
After confirming the details of the dead assassin being dead but by a different cause, the subordinate is sure that the manager himself is the one who did this and this is definitely Leader 1's conspiracy.
The subordinate asked a few more questions to the manager and left in a hurry.
After returning back and reporting everything to leader 3, the leader stopped thinking and let rage take over him for a second.
"The First, you piece of shit. I will kill you with my own hands. I will definitely kill you. How dare you kill my son, you bastard."
He started cursing as he destroyed everything in his room. This is the first reaction he had after his son's death. Until now, he was extremely calm and collected as if the one who died is not his son rather a fellow colleague, and the investigation was also done as if it was his duty as a part of the organization. This is the first reaction from him as a father.
After calming down, he called for all his important associates and gave orders.
"Call for the Death soldiers. I want them to enter Leader 1's territory right now and deal with the assassins, branches, and everything that has anything to do with Leader 1 and his branch.
Use the emergency tokens of the outer forces and the Dead Clients and call them all. I am going to take over Leader 1 and kill him.
It seems like I have been too calm the whole time. I didn't want to deal with the other members of the organization and slowly wanted to separate myself from them, but now I will show them what will happen if they really piss him off.
All of you, follow me into the war."
With that, every associate is moving faster.
There is a reason why leader 3 is a strong contender for Leader 1. But the rest of the leaders knew why.
It is mostly because Leader 1 made him into one.
Out of the six leaders, leader 1 is the best assassin with the most success rate and kills. But Leader 3 has his own expertise. Not only his success rate and kills are right behind Leader 1 with a minute difference, but he also has great expertise in training. He has the best subordinates of all.
The rest of the leaders are all envious of his subordinates and Leader 1 who is on verge of becoming a leader even became afraid of this.
For this reason, he made a move on Leader 3 like an Idiot which made Leader 3 angry and from then on he started dealing with Leader 1's plans.
Everyone thinks that he is in the race for becoming the true leader of the organization, but what many people don't know is that the only reason they got that idea is because of all the trouble Leader 3 brought to leader 1 after he was pissed.
Every attempt of Leader 1 that could possibly give him a lead in the organization or get some good connections with external powers were all destroyed by leader 3 completely.
Since Leader 3 is attempting to sabotage leader 1 they assumed that he is also interested in the position of the leader. But he is not.
That is the only reason, that even though he has a lot of hidden power, he didn't show it to them. But today, he is going to do that, no matter what. Sam and the team stayed back and decided to watch a good show.
