Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

"Really? Are you sure there is someone who would agree to this and that too with the full truth?"

"Yes, there is and that person is another prospect for the next successor and in fact far more capable than Vydon. She is Giyon Gaja."

"Then, can we meet her?"

"Let me check with her associates, she is kind of busy. She is the business tycoon in their generation. She holds most businesses out of every one of her peers and brings in the most revenue for the clan. She also recruits many people for the External part of the clan.

But I doubt that she is using that as a way to infiltrate the groups of other people of her generation."

"Try to make an appointment then. I would like to get this done as soon as possible. If things work out well, not only would I have the heirloom we would make Sivan even busier with the strongest prospect for the next successor in line being his possible target."

"That is indeed true. I will see what I can do."

With that Grivon left and Sam went back to his research. Grivon only came back in the evening with the good news.

"I got the appointment for tomorrow morning. The meeting will be held in the clan grounds."

"That is good."

"But there is something weird though."

"What is it?"

"I actually managed to meet Giyon directly, not for long though as she was on her way to somewhere else, she immediately agreed to the meeting and said.

'Don't forget to bring your new friend.' But she said this before I even mentioned about you."

"Well, she might just be smart. We will know when we meet her tomorrow."

The next day, Sam and Grivon went to the Gaja Clan grounds, directly to the residence of Giyon.

There are many people at the residence all seemed to be extremely busy as they are holding meetings and discussions at many places. In the front yard, the hall, and the dining room.

As soon as they entered the residence, they were received by an attendant and led to a small meeting room. The room is very small, it is only suitable for free people, with a single table.

On the other side, a young lady who looked like she was in her late twenties, sat while looking through some documents.

She has a large bun of hair on her head tied up straight and her eyes are a bit usually dark and smokey.

She looked at both of them and placed her documents aside.

"You finally showed up. I was really looking forward to this meeting." She greeted them as she gestured them to take a seat.

Grivon and Sam took a seat and Giyon smiled while saying.

"Why don't we start by introducing your friend here? Why wear a cloak to a business meeting?"

Grivon didn't know how to start, but Sam looked at Giyon's eyes and had a hunch.

"I am Sam. A new researcher working under Young Master Giyon."

"Sam seems like you don't like beating around the bush either. You are just as the rumors said."

"So, Lady Giyon has heard of me. I am flattered."

"Don't be. You are being modest."

Grivon was the one who was most surprised in the room.

"You know him?"

Giyon chuckled and said.

"Please, little Grivon. You are not the only one with the ambition and you are certainly not the only one with the network. Do you really think that you are the only one keeping tabs on that vile snake Sivan?

I have been keeping tabs on him for a while too, but you are a few steps ahead of me every time, because of my busy schedule over different realms. I learned that Sivan obtained the new body and I started digging through the information regarding the person who stole his body, while you were on the search for the person directly.

That was my mistake and I realized it as soon as I got the information on Sam.

And trust me, from what I know, you didn't investigate him long enough, before going towards him. You don't even know half of the things he had done over the realms.

I wanted to recruit him myself, but you already beat me to it.

At first, I didn't believe that you managed to find him, but later you started the energy shield business and then the idea of the park, the academy, the medicine business, and your upcoming food business. I knew that you are not smart enough to create all of these things yourself, so I guessed that you might have managed to reach him and my guess is completely right."

Grivon took in a breath of cold air. He couldn't help but feel buck naked in front of her. She knew almost everything about him.

Looking at Grivon's face, Giyon chuckled.

"Don't worry my little brother. I don't have any conflict with you, so your secrets are safe with me. But if I were you, I would tell your associate to stop using the clan transportation space gates whenever he goes for a business meeting.

He is clearly leaving a track. Even though he was being stealthy and disguised, there are ways to identify a person when they are disguised completely. Their stench will be all over the place."

"Stench?" Grivon was confused even more.

"Soul Scent."

Sam said from the side and Giyon smiled once again.

"You are indeed as good as the rumors say."

"They are not rumors, almost every story you might have heard about me is true," Sam said calmly.

"Since we know who is who, why don't you take off that cloak."

Sam shrugged and removed his cloak.

"This face is also not bad. You didn't lose out in that section."

"As far as I am concerned this might as well be the face of a pig," Sam replied without any expression.

Giyon chuckled and asked.

"So, why are you guys here?"

Grivon who is still in shock finally came out of his stupor, but he still doesn't know if he is ready to talk the deal at the moment.

After all, he just realized that all of his secrets are not really secrets. All of his preparations over the years are gone to dust.

Giyon looked at his panicked expression and said with a smile.

"Don't worry. I am not really looking into you to compete with you. I was looking to get to know you."

"Yeah, right. And I am the most handsome guy in the world." Grivon blurted out without thinking.

Giyon once again chuckled and said.

"Hear me out, Grivon. Have I ever lied to you over the years? I practically raised you when your mother and father went on their constant honeymoons. Why would I hold a grudge against you?"

"Honeymoons? They went to make deals with other clans and who knows what these clan members do for the position of the Clan head? We already saw fathers murder their sons and sons crippling their fathers."

Giyon sighed and said.

"Hear me out alright. First of all, your mother and father just used the clans as an excuse to go on their little honeymoons and I don't have anything against you because I don't want to be the head of the clan. So, don't get all panicky and stay relaxed."

Grivon was dumbfounded and this time, even Sam was a bit surprised.

For someone who has the best prospects to become the next clan head to not wanting to become one is indeed a surprise.

After all, the Gaja clan head essentially controls around two dozen realms directly and indirectly a lot more than that. It is almost incomprehensible for someone to not desire that power.

Giyon looked at him and said with the same smile.

"Don't think that I am not ambitious. I have my own dreams and agendas for establishing the businesses I run. I want to run my own organization and I aspire to make it as big as Gaja Clan one day.

And for that, I am using the Gaja clan as a cushion. I can use the authority I have as the young mistress of the Gaja clan to make my business.

I would increase the revenue for the clan while increasing my riches and influence in many more realms and finally I would make it big.

As for why I am looking into you, I would prefer someone capable to be the clan head instead of those arrogant jerks that only see the power in the clan but not the responsibility."

"Why do you care if you are going out of the clan anyway?"

"Because she thinks it is her responsibility."

This time Sam answered and Grivon looked at him in confusion.

"She believes she is the most worthy candidate to become the next clan head and since she is leaving behind the clan, she believes that it is her responsibility to choose the next best option and support them to take over the clan.

Am I right, Lady Giyon?"
