Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam shook his head to throw these thoughts away for the moment. Whoever it is, and whatever his motives might be, he is a really talented person in this field, and knowing who did that will not help solve this problem in short term.

He needs to find the answer to this as soon as possible.

All this while, Sam was after the skills and strength of Markan who has six elemental energies and for someone to seal him and throw him away and even going as far as making him change his face so much, he must have been really something. So, he really wanted to take advantage of that.

But now, his interest in the matter only increased with the added kick of solving the trouble caused by a genius mad scientist who managed to use some parasites like this.

So, he started thinking about how to deal with these things and kept on observing them for a while. After some thought, the first thing he did is to inject death energy into the drop of blood and to his surprise, the parasites are even swallowing that energy crazily.

And the death energy seemed to have no effect whatsoever on them directly.

They are devouring and soon they started dividing once again.

But this time, after the new batch of parasites arrived the old batch died.

One batch of parasites seemed to have the ability to create two more batches. That means, the parasitic reaction might have only started from a single parasite and they must spread all over his body.

This also means that the other party might just use this as a slow poison inside Markan.

This is truly formidable.

Sam let the death elemental energy stop and checked with other elemental energies and the result was the same.

They can only divide twice.

After some thought, he then stopped the vitality coming from the crystal plate and he kept on observing.

The parasites stayed dormant for a while as they couldnʼt get any more vitality from the blood cells and they are not getting any elemental energy as well, this made them dormant for a while and soon they started devouring the blood cells and before Samʼs astounded eyes, the only thing remained on the plate is a bunch of transparent liquid with a faintly red hue.

He didnʼt stop and kept on observing which made him finally find out that the parasites are finally dying.

He sucked in a breath of cold air.

These parasites are dying only after they devoured everything and there is nothing to devour anymore.

This is something extremely problematic.

The only good thing is that these little parasites are not multiplying when they devoured the blood which was devoid of the elemental energies and vitality.

So, the thing that needs to keep the parasites alive is vitality while excessive amounts of elemental energy is needed to make them grow.

And Markan is trying to use his elemental energy every day.

He not only made these parasites live comfortably he even extended their families like crazy.

But the only feasible method Sam found it to find a way to remove the vitality and let the parasites die by themselves.

He cannot use the method he used on the elf lady who was poisoned. At that time, he used his vampire and the hydra bloodlines and drank all her blood and digested it along with the poison all the while making her bone marrows generate more blood stretching her vitality to the limit.

But now, things are not so simple. If he used the same method, the parasites would enter his body and there is a chance he would be infected by them as well. Then the trouble he had to face would a million times harder than now.

He cannot lose his elemental energies no matter what.

If he cut off the vitality to Markan, he would die as there is a chance that parasites might devour his flesh in the absence of their energy.

The death energy is also not working, this is a lot more troublesome than he thought.

He once again reverted back to his previous thought process. He wants to make this analogous to a normal human problem. It worked the first time and there is no fault in trying again.

So, he thought of a few scenarios. The tapeworm was the first thing that came to his mind, but he immediately rejected the idea. The tapeworm would die for some kind of medicine, but the situation is different here, the medicine is also being devoured. The only way would be to surgically remove it, but the parasites are too hard to remove surgically.

He then changed his thought process again.

He thought of the problems related to blood. And first thought it obviously the blood cancer, the only method is to use controlled radiation to kill the excessive cells.

As soon as the thought hit his mind, Sam immediately began taking action. He poured out another drop of blood on the plate and activated light elemental fusion.

He shot a light beam on the blood while using observation ability. The intensity of the light beam is very light and it wouldnʼt destroy the whole plate and the blood there. It was just to conduct a test and he controlled it. He wanted to see if the parasites would devour the light beam too. After all, everything is a mass of spiritual energy and he wants to see if the light created by the concentrated spiritual energy which would have already changed forms into the light would also be devoured.

And to his relief, it didnʼt. But there is also no change.

Sam did the same thing with the fire, water, and such for a few more drops of blood and the result is the same. This thing might absorb elemental energies, but not the manifested things of those elements.

So, there is still a chance to deal with this.

He then shifted his focus to his partial light elemental fusion in which he started changing frequencies of the light beam he shooting. It could be said he is trying lasers of various frequencies on the drop of blood while observing.

Some beams donʼt have any effect on the blood or parasite and some donʼt have any effect on the parasite but kill the blood cells.

He repeated the experiments until the blood was finished. He went out and ran back to Markan. Looking at Samʼs face, Markan didnʼt know what to make of it and asked.

”Did you find anything?”

”Yes.” With that, Sam explained the whole thing regarding the parasite and asked.

”Just who is a person that is so skilled to place such a parasite on you without you knowing. This parasite is so good that spiritual sense and vitality search used by healers wouldnʼt be able to pick on them. Without my special ability, I highly doubt I would be able to figure out its presence.

I am pretty sure someone that skilled would have been noticed by you. Can you think of anyone?”

Markan looked lost as he thought of a person. There is only one person who is skilled enough to do this, that he came into contact with.

”Have you heard of Vardar?”

When Sam heard this, he was stunned.

He is very familiar with the name. The first time he heard it was from the mouth of dark elf when he was trying to poach the five elemental king and from then on, as he climbed up the realms, he heard his name frequently. But not because of his direct fame, rather the fame of his was spread by his disciples far and wide as they treated many difficult illnesses.

Looking at Samʼs expression Markan understood, that he heard about this and he continued.

”I met with Markan briefly before I was sealed. A week to be exact. And in that one week, I have been busy fighting off assassinations aimed at me. I fought around twenty-five assassinations. So I was very active with my elemental energy usage.”

When Sam heard this, he became thoughtful as he calculated the energy usage approximately, in turn also calculating the propagation rate of the parasite.

A week is indeed feasible for the parasitic creatures to spread enough to be devouring all the elemental energy and cover all the limbs.

”I heard he is quite the healer and quite the high level one at that. How did you even get into contact with him?”

”Because of my identity.”

Markan sighed and hesitated a bit before saying.

”I am the next-in-line successor of Black Ghosts.”

Sam was once again stunned. He didnʼt expect that Markanʼs identity would be so deep. Because Black Ghosts are one of the organizations that are on the list. In fact, they are part of the second three ranking beside the Five Great sects.

”You are the next successor of the Black Ghosts?”

Sam asked once again just to confirm.
