Dayus is pissed. He didn't like the way Sam fooled him.

This is the biggest humiliation he could ask for at the moment. Particularly, when he remembered how injured Sam is and how weak he was at the moment.

This should have been easily finished. He couldn't believe that not only Sam is playing around with him, but he is also doing so with such ease. It almost seemed effortless.

He felt like a fool. Rightfully so. What kind of person loses a his weapon when fighting like this, except for a fool.

He stopped in his tracks and didn't even dare to move at all for a moment. Sam took this chance and once again started running away. He must say that he is enjoying this a bit. He knew that he doesn't have enough energy or power to defeat Dayus head on.

He has too much of a handicap. So, there is very little he could do. But with the trickery which he hadn't used in a long time, he could do a lot more. All he has to do is put his pride aside a bit and be a bit more shameless.

He started running deeper into the woods, to see if he can find another spot to lay down a different trap.

And within a few minutes, he noticed something and smiled. As he was preparing, Dayus is doing something else.

He just stood there with gritted teeth as he started contemplating about various things. All of them are about Sam of course. And whatever thought he had, all of them ended up at the same thing.

A question.

"Can I kill Sam or not?"

This question is the final conclusion for all the doubts raising in his head and no matter what kind of scenario he is imagining, he couldn't confidently say that he could kill Sam. This is him being brutally honest with himself.

All this while, he knew that is not as strong as he claimed himself to be and he knew deep down that he is not as strong as Sam, but he was too prideful and butt hurt to accept that fact. Now that he faced the truth, he thought of another thing. Since he cannot kill Sam by himself, he will just let go of all his shame and fake pride to deal with him.

He took out a communication token and spoke through it.

"Remove the limiter on yourself. Come and aid me to defeat Sam. You need to catch and kill him."

He could hear some battling sounds from the other side.

"I told you to stop the battle and come here. I want you to hunt Sam."

"I am not coming."

"What did you say?"

"It is already beneath me to come and fight with a youngster like this. It is against the rules and completely against my bottom line. Now, you want me to go and kill a youngster, who is already injured and has done nothing to me? You can dream on.

If you want to take this out on my clan, then by all means, knock yourself out. But there is no way, I am going to satisfy your whims on this."

Dayus is frustrated by this answer. He didn't want to hear this now. This is the last thing he want.

"Okay then. You deal with the guy there. Alone. Send the person helping you our here to me. You can do that at least. If you don't do that, I am not just going to threaten you. I will deal with you in the worst way possible.

I might not be able to do anything to you directly. But your god will do whatever I want him to do. I am sure you don't want that."

There was a faint silence from the other side and after a moment, a sigh was heard.

"Alright."

Dayus smiled and looked at the direction Sam has left and slowly started walking there. He is no hurry. Because he knows that it is going to be his victory as long as he acted shameless enough.

At this moment, back at the estate. Kach looked as one of the two opponents he is fighting just finished talking into a communication with a sigh.

He frowned.

Even though he got a faint idea of what this guy is talking, he didn't hear what the person from the otherside is saying so he didn't have full context of things.

But the next moment, he didn't even have time to think about these things. Because, the man suddenly raised his power. He is overflowing with energy and not just the spiritual energy, but divine energy as well.

Kach clearly knew this level of power can only be wielded by a person who in on verge of breaking through to Divine Plane. They are just a push away, which is above Kach's current level at least in terms of cultivation.

If that is not surprise enough, the second opponent he is facing also showed a similar level. But this person didn't focus on Kach anymore and moved towards woods, where Sam escaped to.

Kach wanted to intercept, but the first opponent blocked him.

"I apologize. I am embarrassed to even do this. But my hands are tied. I cannot let you go and help your friend."

"Who the fuck are you? There is no way a person like you has leisure enough play with side characters like us. Not when everyone else is dying to get their hands on the technique, which I believe will be impossible to gain after tonight.

Why are you wasting your time on us?"

"As I told you, we didn't have much choice. If given one, we would also obviously choose to fight for the technique, or staying back at my clan would have been a much better choice than coming to fight you.

The only thing, I am going to promise you is that I am not going to kill you. I will also not seriously injure you. So, you can be free of any such fear."

"Should I be thanking you for this?"

Kach replied sarcastically as he swung his sword. Death energy toiled around his blade as he made his move fiercely.

Both of their forces clashed and Kach managed to hold his ground. He would have been a bit proud of himself if it was a normal scenario. But currently, he is in one of the most difficult situations. He wasn't able to intercept the other opponent who went after Sam.

He gritted his teeth in frustration. But there is little he could do no matter how frustrated he is.

Meanwhile, Sam is a bit surprised as he noticed that Dayus is not pursuing him anymore. Instead, after a couple of minutes, he saw a purple lightning being shot into the sky from Dayus' location.

Sam frowned in confusion. A lot of questions arose in his mind and soon he came to draw some speculations. There is only one reason to shoot something so flashy like that. It is to draw attention and show his location.

This is obviously a bad news for him.

He looked at the surroundings which he wanted to use for his advantage in his next exchange with Dayus. Now he is unsure if this will be optimal place for him.

As he was thinking, he noticed that a purple lightning spear is coming towards him. Just from his basic energy vision, he could see that the spear is unable to hold the power of that attack. It is crumbling before it could reach his position.

But the attack is still dangerous. Even though a lot of energy is being dissipated because of the poor weapon, the attacks themselves are still a bit lethal considering Sam's health. He dodged the attack and hid in between the rocks as he waited for Dayus to come near him.

But all that came are the lightning spears, one faster than the previous one.

Meanwhile, within the next two minutes, the person in disguise came and met with Dayus.

Dayus threw another spear at Sam's location and spoke.

"That bastard is hiding there. Don't let your guard down. No one knows what kind of traps that rat bastard has set up."

The other party just snorted.

"What's with that attitude? It seems like you don't really understand your position here? Show some respect?"

"You can make me do all kinds of despicable things. Because today is not mine or my clan's day. But no matter what you try, you can never make us respect you. You are calling your opponent a bastard. But from what we can see, he is a man much better than you.

He is injured, outnumbered and overpowered with much more powerful opponents. You should have been able to match him yourself, but you are still taking our aid, but he is fighting by himself. I respect him more than I respect you.

So, if you want some respect. You better shut the fuck up and earn it."
