Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer Chapter 496
Advertisement
Sam didn't go, in fact, he couldn't go. But he could still see the commotion at the audience entrance from here with the eye technique and what he saw put a smile on his face.
Yodha looked at Rana and said.
"Rana, don't tell me that I am just a piece of trash in your eyes. I placed a bet of one hundred million on a fighter and now that I am coming to ask the money I placed, your guys are not paying me and telling me to let this go.
There are only giving out my initial deposit."
"Young master Rana, same goes for me." The common and most unsuspecting young Naga who placed the bet on behalf of Sam and Rana spoke at this moment.
As for people who placed smaller bets, they didn't dare to talk at this moment. In front of Yodha, this well-known benevolent young master, no one seemed to have any form of authority.
They are way too obedient and respectful towards him.
Rana frowned and looked at Yodha with a genuine confused expression.
"Brother Yodha, I think there is some sort of misunderstanding. From what I know you only bet one million."
With that, he directly took out the betting deposit data and showed it to everyone.
Yodha took it in his hands and looked at the data before saying.
"Rana, you do know what will happen if you play games with me. You better spill the beans if you have hand in this matter, otherwise things would get nasty. I am in a good mood as I got some really great liquor. If you ruin my mood, I am going to skin you alive."
"Yodha, I swear that I have nothing to do with this. You can interrogate him right here right now."
Rana said without hesitation.
At this moment Gnyan intervened much to everyone's surprise.
"Younger brother Rana, you should admit if you do something wrong. Why are you trying to use your subordinates as a scapegoat?"
Everyone looked at him with surprise in their eyes. Even though all of them knew that the two brothers don't get along, they didn't expect that they would make it public like this.
And more importantly, they never expected that Gnyan would be the one who would break the decorum in public. From what they knew, he is the scheming one while his brother is the crazy and impulsive one.

"Yodha, I have a clear conscience, I don't care what method you use or how cruel your interrogation is, but do it in public, and no matter who the culprit behind this is, if it is within my capabilities, I would hand him over to you, even if it was me, I will surrender myself and I swear I will cut my arm right in front of you before doing so."
Rana didn't even bother to talk with Gnyan, he is so close to exposing his brother's schemes, there is no way he would let this chance go. Particularly when Yodha was mined up in this, this is the perfect opportunity.
Even the last imperial prince is standing and watching the scene quietly.
Even though, the noble scions respect the princes, the last prince is more like a little brother to them and is only a Grand realm cultivator. He doesn't have much pull over these people as he actually grew up in these people's company.
As for him intervening in the matters of Yodha, don't even joke about it.
He is most afraid of Yodha. No one else.
Yodha has an extremely special identity and it is mostly related to the army of the empire. Even his father the emperor would cut some slack to Yodha and no noble either Dule or minister would dare to piss him off.
His background or personal strength is way out of everyone's league.
Yodha looked at the manager who is kneeling in front of him and gestured him to stand up and said to his guard beside him.
"Check everything related to this betting system. I want to get to the bottom of this."
The guard nodded and stepped forward. The guard is also a pure Naga, but his scales are a lot dimmer in purple and the scales doesn't have another color hue. Rather the scales have a combination of colors with a merge of purple and black.
He looked in the eyes of the manager and the eyes of the guard turned misty and hazy.
And soon, the manager started to sing like a bird.
He spilled out everything related to the Betting section.
Including how he has been deceiving the Arena since day 1 and how much money he embezzled, how much money Gnyan took and how many elders knew this, but still covered the whole thing up in front of the family head.

How many mistresses he is keeping and how much he gave away to the mistresses that came from the Arena.
He told everything and it went on for a good solid half-an-hour.
Yodha looked at Gnyan coldly and the rest of them are also looking at him with an interesting expression.
They didn't expect that the whole thing would come out right in front of everyone and Gnyan became the laughing stock of the whole city and possibly all over the empire in the near future.
Gnyan also didn't expect that something like this would happen. He could even bear this happening in front of everyone, but the situation was like this because Yodha was involved.
He couldn't even take revenge. If this issue was gone out, even if the family head wouldn't have to come, the elders and grand elders of the family would definitely make a visit to Yodha and apologize personally.
Much less five hundred million, they would give a couple of billions if it could calm Yodha's anger. But this guy wouldn't be so easily appeased.
The situation is bad, really bad.
Yodha suddenly spoke.
"Rana, your family is really too pitiful, are you sure your father really gave birth to you? Are you not someone he picked up on the road? Your father will take the elders' words over yours no matter how many times you appealed? How shitty are your capabilities?"
Rana didn't get angry at Yodha's words. What he said is truth after all.
Rana too wanted to say out loud, that is not the matter of ability of his, rather it's the ability of the opponent's mother's pillow talk.
But if he did, he would be in big trouble. It would be a shame to his father, who is a Consummate realm cultivator, but still being swayed by the pillow talk.
He would become a bigger laughing stock than Gnyan.
Then Yodha looked at Gnyan and said coldly.
"I don't care what your family matters are and how shitty is your brain that you wanted to steal from the ass of your younger brother, but since it is revealed that you are the one behind the scenes, I want you to pay me back according to the bet."
"Yodha.." Gnyan wanted to say something but cut off when he saw Yodha's dangerous gaze.
At this moment, the common-looking young Naga and Rana exchanged some gestures and the former took two crystal bamboo jars out of his spatial ring and gave it to Yodha before saying.
"Young master Yodha, I have also bet hundred million. It is not actually my own money. It is the money of all my brothers and colleagues. Can you please help me settle this?"
When others looked at the crystal bamboo jars, they didn't think much. They just thought it was some wine. That too, when they saw the jar that was half-full in Yodha's hand.
Yodha then looked at Rana and then at Sam who is still standing on the stage, he seemed to have understood something and with a wave of his hands, he took the two jars and said to Gnyan.
"His share too, I want it to be paid in ten minutes, no one moves until it comes. Also don't even think about going after him. I will cut your balls off if something happened to him whether you are the culprit behind him or not."
He said in an extremely cold tone.
When others saw this, they are dumbfounded.
They didn't expect that Yodha would be bought over with two jars of wine.
This technique was not something they never tried before. Some people traveled far and wide to get some special wines and Yodha will take no matter what elemental attribute the wine has.
Although nobody knows what the reason for that is, he is a wine fanatic. But still, they couldn't get any favors from him. The best the wine could do is make up for an apology if they pissed him off unintentionally.
But this no-name guy just got such a protection charm from Yodha.
They are surprised, to say the least.
Is it really so easy to buy him off?
This is the only thought in everyone's mind.
