The captain was a bit surprised and asked in amusement.
"How do you know that?"
"Mirkin said he had some old flame in the island that he doesn't want to reignite. But I don't know what he is complaining about so much. Doesn't get jealous when he hits on other women and even brings them to bed just to please him. She cares about him, great professional talent. I even saw her picture. She is beautiful. What more does he want?"
"Her sister."
"What?"
"It is a long story. Simply put, there are twins. He hit on one sister, he succeeded in wooing another one. He only found that out later, but when she said it to the one who fell for him, instead of getting angry, she became ecstatic and started convincing her sister. It didn't take much effort.
He is even fine with that. Who gets twins that easily? But the problem is after that, a cousin of theirs wanted in the action and even a distant aunt. If not for their father, I doubt even their mother would have joined in and competed.
The whole family freaky."
"Fuck, that is crazy. Did you send him there then?"
"Of course not, even if I want to see that guy suffer, I will never send him there. I sent him to the Southern state, Jade city."
"Oh, then who went to Mirkin."
"I sent Priver. That guy is the only one who can run away from that freaky woman. She always gets overly freaky when one of our tribe members goes there. He is the only one that could get away from her."
"That is great."
After some more small talk, Sam got some other information and got out of that place.
Even though he has the information on the location of these important people, he didn't act on it immediately. He would be an idiot to do that. After all, not all of these tribe members are innocent. Even if the captain didn't find him harmful, he would still be suspicious if his team dies as soon as he told him about the location of these people.
It would be way too obvious and the fact that he had an honorary membership in the tribe, wouldn't be able to do squat when he was suspected.
So, he decided to go after some info which he normally wouldn't have obtained in any way. With no trial whatsoever. The shadow mice went into action and found something like that within a few hours.
They managed to sneakily hear some conversation between two administrators discussing some distribution plans of territory in the planet and selecting a candidate who is most likely to cut a deal without huge losses.
He got the name and the location, so he used communication tokens to give instructions to the two messengers.
Akhil moved and went to the player who is located closest to the said planet and passed the details to him.
By the next morning, that guy was found dead in his guest room arranged by the local forces.
Akhil came back with some fire elemental venison meat which he kept half to himself and sent the rest to Sam who cooked it over carefully and savored it for a long time as he tried to find the next target.
This went on for the first week without any hitch. But the fiend tribe already took note of the deaths of ten of their representatives in different territories.
They know that something is wrong and they felt extremely cautious.
Constant meetings were held as the elders started analyzing the situations.
Some wanted their representatives to be called back immediately to prevent any further loss to the tribe. Some wanted to wait and see if this is just a coincidence or if something is really happening.
Some are saying that this is the ploy of the other organizations to deal another blow or even occupy their territories or even swallow them as a whole.
Sam was obviously not called for these meetings, but he had his little mice sneak into some and get some information.
After analyzing their reaction, Sam decided to do some changes to their original plan.
He started sending tips on the people in a different manner so for the next week, the organization that is closest to the Fiend tribe has twice as many deaths of Fiend tribe members in their territory as the other two organizations.
This made things a bit rocky between the two organizations as the fiend tribe that has too many doubts couldn't find it in them to take this as a coincidence.
The elders who wanted the representatives to be called back got more support now.
At this moment, Sam finally gave the information on the first elite team to the players. The information on all nine of them and he even gave the information regarding the possible call back of them.
So, they hurried up and killed them all.
That was the last straw on the camel's back. Finally, the fiend tribe couldn't take it anymore and called their people back.
But at this moment, Sam gave all the information he got and asked the players to kill whoever they can.
When the representatives finally reached the home, only one-third of them are left.
The fiend tribe lost a lot of elites, tacticians and negotiators, experts, and even some elders.
Their losses are too severe as they happened right after the war which already reduced their manpower a lot.
Currently, the Fiend tribe is the weakest one among the bunch.
This one month passed like this.
But this month, that is not the only thing Sam has done. He actually tried a lot of other things to find a way to deal with the Fiend tribe and figured out that there are not many particular things to use. Not even alcohol
He wanted to use the good old addiction plan to just directly deal with the whole situation. But when he thought about it, it wouldn't be easy to make a bunch of Astral Plane cultivators to be addicted to some wine when they are still trying to figure out what is happening to them.
Even food is the same. They are in no mood to eat leisurely every day.
Later he found out that they are sending some elders to investigate.
All of them are at least in the Late stage of Astral Plane transcendence which would give them a great chance at their survival.
The core forces of the tribe are going to different locations to investigate, this is a great time to deal some blows to them as well as home ground.
Sam gave out the information to the players on what to do with which targets while he focused on the Fiend Tribe's headquarters.
He started using curses. He started by using the curse of rage on one soldier sneakily making him attack his fellow soldier brutally and soon the whole group of soldiers is trying to kill each other and half of them succeed while the other half is saved by some elder stopping them.
Another conflict happened as Sam used his curse on two young masters who don't like each other and often came to blows. But this time, one of them died at night while the other young master who slept after getting drunk with some strong liquor dreamt that he killed his rival.
The situation escalated with two elders coming to blows and one of the elders had his limb broken into several pieces.
The healer used a special numbing medicine while setting the bone straight. The medicine was freshly made from the herbs directly collected from the garden.
After patching the leg up, it rotted away in two days.
Everyone looked at the other elder in disgust as they thought he might be behind this and that escalated quickly, into that elder getting stripped of his elder status. And one night, the elder who had his leg rotten died while the one who got his title stripped disappeared.
Things went on and on like this for the next two weeks and the tribe headquarters is in chaos as every incident is becoming more ridiculous than the last one.
While the internals of the tribe is like this, these two weeks also dealt some severe blows to the externals of the tribe.
One mine collapsed and exploded all of a sudden and nobody knows why.
A beast tide happened in another establishment without any prior sign. Several restaurants were burned down because of the shitty food they served.
The weapon shops are out of business because of the crappy quality.
Sam went through the Myriad Curse guide like he is going through a playbook.
He destroyed so many things that belong to the Fiend tribe and even the Myriad Beast sect didn't come close to this in the first two weeks of the war.
Businesses, soldiers, workers, elders, elites, commanders, everyone is being affected by a small curse that was being placed on them at the right time and right place.
While things are like this, news came out that one-third of elders they sent to investigate are dead.
