Arkiv finally had some time to breathe after he entered this town for fugitives that too after three months, meanwhile the rest of the candidates are not exactly this lucky.

They are all going through extremely hard situations. Some of them imprisoned, some of them trying to get resources to survives, some of them in a remote place where they wouldn't even find signs of any form of life.

They spanned all over the planet.

Another month passed.

Sam is having the most relaxed time ever, military training, the assignments, and the assessments are too easy for him, the only hardest part being the suppression being difficult, in a few days it would be six months, even Arman went past in his cultivation and already broke through Level-6.

At this moment, Sam is inside the woods used for hunting training for the soldiers and there is a lake in the middle of it.

Sam is playing his flute as the lake water danced and he stood on it as the dancing water is moving him from one spot to another, throwing and twisting, shoot him up, and dragging him down according to the melody of the Black metallic flute he was playing at the moment.

Sometimes, the water is turbulent to the extreme, and other times, the water is calm and too laminar.

He is playing with the water and practicing his elemental control of water at the same time.

All of a sudden, his frown got deeper and the water below him started becoming cooler by the second.

This is what he achieved from the training before coming here and he wants to improve the current water element and get access to more versatile power in terms of offense and defense.

That is to gain control over ice.

Ice might be a hybrid of the water element, but it is still water nonetheless. After all, the water turning to ice is essentially the water molecules getting closer and the distance between them turning to a minimum. That is what happens when the temperature is reduced, the water molecules grow closer.

Sam is achieving the result by doing the opposite, he is controlling the water at a molecular level and turning it into ice.

The water in the lake started cooling down and slowly, a faint mist could be seen on top of it indicating the temperature descent.

As the temperature decreased slowly, he concentrated on playing the music in a particular fashion and if one who can observe the minute motion of energy waves is present they could see that the air is not the only thing coming out of the flute.

The energy is moving in a peculiar fashion as it slowly enveloped the water and seeped into it as it forced the water molecules to get closer and closer.

The most peculiar thing is the energy coming out of the flute doesn't completely belong to his own body, rather he is inhaling the surrounding spiritual energy of the atmosphere into his lungs as he blew it into the flute along with the air.

Even though he is controlling the large water body which he didn't even conjure himself, the energy consumption has been minimized.

As the lake is slowly starting to show the signs of solidification, Sam frowns deeper and this time it is not the sign of concentration, rather it is a sign of disturbance, someone who is not supposed to be here is coming.

He undid all the spiritual energy and the lake water turned still, he kicked on the water gently and he landed on the bank with some soft ripples.

He could hear the screams of hysteria and muffled groans around the corner, he didn't have to be a genius to understand what is happening and his frown got deeper.

He started walking to exit the forest and forget about this nasty work. But luck is not on his side today, one of the guys in the group already saw him and notified the leader of the group.

The leader of the group is Naga and the rest of them are Half-Nagas. The Naga is a newcomer and in fact, he is also from the same company as Sam. As for the rest, they are Half Nagas from the naga's family and are his subordinates, who joined the army earlier than him.

At this moment, the group of five is holding down a human girl and their hands are still in the middle of holding the clothes of the woman ready to tear them up.

They halted their action because of Sam's presence.

The human girl looked at Sam with a pleading gaze, her mouth was still held tight by one of the subordinates and she still didn't stop struggling.

Sam didn't want to interfere, even though he could help her, he would have to deal with the Young Naga man. He seemed to be from a noble family, he would have to go back to scheming and planning all over again.

He is enjoying the time of relaxation in this beautiful realm, he doesn't want to get dragged into this.

He was about to silently turn around and walk away. But at this moment, someone from the group yelled at him.

"Stop right there."

Sam didn't halt and continued.

At this moment, one of the four subordinates took started chanting a spell and threw an attack at Sam.

Sam dodged the fireball and looked at him coldly.

But the Naga who looked back said.

"Where do you think you are going? Didn't you hear him calling you out loud?"

Sam didn't like the condescending tone or the way he is looking at him, he raised his land and the silver lightning materialized slowly, and with bam, a large silver lightning bolt struck down on the tree next to him and it didn't stop.

The next three bolts attacked the three trees around them and the surroundings are on fire.

This much commotion will definitely get the attention of the members of the camp.

There is no way that the group can carry out what they want to do. The subordinates couldn't do anything but let her go. She looked at Sam with gratitude before running away as he tried to swallow the hiccups that are coming from weeping.

Sam couldn't care less about the gratitude of the woman or the condescension of the noble scions, he turned around and walked away, within few minutes some soldiers who are curious about the blasts made their way here, but neither Sam nor the group of individuals are present which made them go back in disappointment.

Sam knew that this wouldn't be over, but he didn't expect that scion would be so dumb enough to provoke him as soon as they returned.

As Sam entered his barracks, the noble scion already arrived and he is waiting for me.

"Do you know who I am?" The noble scion asked directly.

Sam didn't want to bother with him, but this guy is too persistent in getting into trouble, but he still stayed silent.

"I am the son of the regiment commander."

"So, you got two dicks or something?"

Sam asked with an irritated voice.

He doesn't want to disturb these noble scions, because every time they start a conflict it wouldn't stop with just them. The whole family and even their long-lost ancestors sleeping in their graves would also get involved.

That is why he started to walk away, but this guy just has to step on Sam's nerves.

Sam also noticed that he is being too sensitive lately and getting pissed off easily. Maybe the reason being him liking this peace too much.

He doesn't want anyone to disturb it, but his prideful side is not letting him take anything lying down, even if it is the slightest condescension of some self-important noble.

Some voice in his mind is saying words that could inflate his ego.

After all, Sam himself has tens of thousands of people working under him with a landmass that is as big as this whole empire under his control, of course when he combined the western continent, Adrian, Dusk organization, and the yellow sand island.

Even the emperors at Transcendent realm and Consummate realm cultivators are doing his bidding, with an army of Raiju beasts being a family of him and finally, he is dealing with Gods on a regular basis.

Even he is not bragging about all this.

Why is this Naga man, trying to prove that he is so superior to him that the condescension could be smelt all over him.

Sam couldn't help but shake his head and slapped the young man hard.

The slap landed square on the face and his neck he lost consciousness. Sam walked over his body and entered the barracks so that he could rest a bit.

The surrounding people are shocked and the news went all over the camp and even reached the battalion commander yodha in a few minutes.

Sam who stayed low-key became famous all over because of a single incident.
