Chapter 953: Power of Addiction

A few weeks ago. The very next day after Sam entered the maze.

Akhil and Noah got the addiction medicine, the alcohol and the poison along with the gist of a new plan which they could employ at their own will.

They were initially shocked by the fact that Sam directly entered the maze, but it was not something he wouldn't do. He has been doing this crazy stuff all along. So, after getting through that shock phase, both of them took a seat in a peaceful area to discuss what to do.

After clearly studying the effects of the drugs and the poisons on the people and how to use them, they came up with a plan.

And the after two days, two bars opened. One in the area of the Blood lIghtning family and the other in the area of Crimson Lightning family.

The bar has several specialty and most of them are medicinal that are useful for different ailments and even for cultivation.

The addiction medicine works greatly through the medicinal ways. So, they got some medicinal alcohol before which they would be taking this special sensation medicine which was given to Aina before having sex with the King and the duo would pour their spiritual energy into the wine through a special formation Sam added into the goods they have now before serving it.

When the wine was consumed, they will absorb the spiritual energy which causes this sensational feeling which they will mistake for the wine's effect as they don't even fight back against the dizziness caused by alcohol since they are using it as a medicine to heal or cultivate.

This worked wonders.

Exactly how they wanted to.

Every customer is becoming a repeat customer within the first week.

But soon the suspicions came. How can a store which has same effect and same product open in two planets that are homes for two rivals?"

And they cooked up a story for that too.

Akhil and Noah are now siblings who are continuing family tradition. They are drifters and they don't have any home. They roam around the realms. They visit a realm, open a shop there, do business for two to three months and then sell the business to some local bigshot along with the recipes and leave.

Their aim is to earn some money, but the main goal is to make sure that their recipe and craft goes far and wide.

They cooked up this story without Sam's help and this worked perfectly for them.

They managed to make it convincing enough to avoid trouble temporarily.

As for why they wanted to change the plan like this, it has something to do with Sam entering the maze.

After he entered the maze, even though the three families are not exactly worried, they didn't want to take chances and increased the security around the maze.

Sam guessed that this would happen, that is why he changed to this plan.

If he was outside, there would have been no need for this and they could have simply killed some people to make the security dilute, but now there is no way that would work. The families might risk it if they have to make sure there are no anomalies in the maze.

Because they knew that once the Saber Monarch comes out, they are going to be dead meat.

So, Sam decided to dilute the forces of the family in another way. Instead of quantity, he went for quality.

In fact, the employees of the families have a special discount in the bar.

They are welcomed and they even have VIP rooms. When asked why the duo only has a simple reply.

"They are probable buyers of our business. So, they get a little special treatment."

For some reason they believed that and now the guards from the family whenever they don't have any duty will come here to get a jar.

The young masters of the family come here with friends to showcase their specialty.

The elders of the family come here to discuss business and politics with others.

And all of this happened by the time Sam managed to crack the maze and waited for the report from the duo.

The next day after Sam cracked the maze. The news of the Maze not shifting reached the whole realm overnight.

The family heads all came along with their trusted subordinates. All of them are pretty high-level and the least affected by alcohol.

And the duo also came giving this report to Sam through the bug as he thought of how to proceed from here. But first, he sent them back to do what they are already doing and waited for the family heads to leave the planet.

"You should have just removed the formation then, I would have killed them all. With the help of Five elemental King on the side, we can make short work of them."

"Yeah, you would do that. But I don't want to take any chances, I don't want them to be together when you fight them. I want the sure kills. And there is a lot more interesting approach with much less possible damages."

"What is it?"

"First, I want to know whether the family heads will go out to meet the person who gave the formation by themselves."

"Why?"

"To think of next step. If they go out, I can speed up a few things with the help of Five-Elemental King and Agar. If not, I might have to think of another way."

But the second case didn't happen, because the family heads indeed went out of the realm on their own to deal with the formations.

And since it is a joint decision and they didn't try to hide it, it was not exactly difficult to get the wind of the news.

Now, Sam went on with his plan and the first step is for the duo to load the wine with the addiction energy and all the poisons he gave him.

They even closed the shop for a day and took out a large formation disc that helps them to load the energy and kept on charging the wine relentlessly.

Even the one-day absence of the addicted wine caused some withdrawal symptoms in the people and most of it is actually just frustration.

Now, Agar and Five-Elemental Kings made their way towards the two families respectively at night to pay them a proper visit.

Since more than half of the forces at the family estates are frustrated beyond belief, it was a piece of cake for the two of them and their main goal is not to wipe them out anyway. All they have to do is create enough casualties to make the families feel the extreme pinch but also give them a faint hope that it can be recovered."

After the attack happened and most people are injured, the very next day, the duo opened the bar once again.

Even though some people are suspicious by their actions of closing on the day of the attack, nobody bothered to voice them. After all, in the eyes of public these bars tried their best to make a connection with the two families, so they are not going to do something like this, that could ruin their connection.

So, the injured and frustrated people came running to the bar. In their mind, these wines are a perfect alternative for the bitter treatment they could get there.

And as they drank their first pint of wine, they didn't know they are going to die that day. The first thing that kicked in is their addiction. They couldn't control their addiction and the special sensation it is giving them as they drink like fish.

After they are on their third or fourth pint, the duo took out the new barrel which is mixed with the special poisons, and this time they are even generous.

They just gave the next set of barrels for free and let the bar silently without anyone noticing them.

The customers drank like fish. They got drunk on alcohol that it took some time for them to realize that they are getting drunk on poison and by the time they truly realized it and got out of their stupor, they are completely hopeless. Some of them ran out of the bar in hopes to find a healer, but they couldn't make it.

So, that night. Extending from the bar to many streets of the city, there are corpses of the two families fallen all over.

Within two days, the three family heads came back and went back to their respective families directly and the Crimson Lightning and the Blood Lightning families got the biggest shocks of their lives and at this moment, Sam tinkered with the maze a bit as it gave of some glowing light.

The guards don't know what is happening, but they are scared shitless as they knew they would be the first in line for slaughter when the Saber Monarch comes out.

But the guards that went to inform the family heads didn't even get an audience, because the family heads of the two families are furious while the third family head is anxious.

As three of them are rivals and only two of them are attacked, the blame clearly shifted to the third one.

So, the first two joined forces and waged a war the very same day. They are especially furious when they heard that the reason their forces died is that they are addicted to the wine that was sold in those special shops. Because a few days ago, they are gloating by the fact that the third family didn't get to have this wine in his businesses, but they could, but now it bit them in the back so hard, they could feel the pain while breathing.
