Gandharvas, the race which could be considered as the direct subordinates of the Hindu gods, are one of the most beautiful races, if not the most beautiful races ever created. They are even beautiful and look purer than elves.

And they have a large spectrum of subraces within them because of the various blessings and curses they received from the Hindu Gods.

Some of the Gandharva branches are lower than the Demon families with their bloodline extremely diluted and their powers completely limited and some of the branches are extremely powerful.

There are still some pure Gandharva branches with not a single drop of their bloodline diluted at all. They are extremely talented. Their battle prowess would be off the charts.

They are skilled in many professions too and in fact, every Gandharva will always choose some profession.

Some choose to be a weaponsmith, some choose to be a painter, a tailor, a potion maker, a pill master, a healer, a puppet maker, a dancer, a musician, a singer, and a sculptor. They choose different arts and professions.

This is because of their natural creative mind is better than the rest and their mental strength is off the charts compared to any of their peers. Gandharvas are born with an innate mental strength which makes them perceive things while they are still an infant. They would be able to understand the words even if they were not able to speak they would be able to understand and respond. By one, they could learn reading and write along with speaking.

Every Gandharva can become a scholar by ten and their creative mind will go on a rampage if they didn't pick up art.

They would pick up art by the time they are ten, they would grind on the basics and improve their skill in that art by fifteen and when they awakened they will choose a cultivation technique that is suitable for their elemental affinity and link it with their art to make a fight with it.

It is just like Sam's flute techniques, but they will use their art for every attack. Their battle techniques are all artistic, except for a few who choose professions like pill making, forging, and such.

Merene family is one of the Gandharva branches that is on the low end of the spectrum and the family worships Indra.

This branch is not divided by its elemental affinity of the arts and professions they take. In fact, it is one of the most diverse Gandharva families.

The founder of this branch was cursed by Indra which made his bloodline diluted and the features unique to the Gandharva race, such as mental strength, creative ability, and superior body are weakened to a great degree.

The dilution of the bloodline is more than sixty percent leaving around thirty-five to forty percent purity.

In fact, the Gandharva with the most talent in the history of merene family barely managed to reach forty percent and the closest someone got to it is thirty-eight percent.

The whole family has many elemental affinities with sub-branches. They are also into many businesses such as weapons, pills, and some pharmaceuticals.

The arts that are mostly practiced are music and singing. There are no dancers, painters whatsoever in this place.

The family currently has a prodigy who should be at the same level of cultivation as Sam who is a musician. His name is Manvar.

As for the core information, Jwala barely knew a few names.

"I don't think any of the information I give you would be useful. When I was forced to escape the family, it is going to through some serious restructuring because some people who were presumed to be dead came back with a lot of power in their hands.

Nobody knows how they came back and nobody knows what they went through, but they are really powerful and brought some subordinates of another race.

I was stuck in that chaotic situation and my mother who is merely a maid traded her life just to provide a way for me to escape.

My father, who is supposed to be an elder might have died as he had some serious conflict with one of the people that came back."

Sam nodded and didn't push her to say anything anymore.

His team is efficient and he is sure that he would gain enough information that he needs from them.

They didn't disappoint

The Merene family is quite high profile and almost the whole hierarchy of the family was laid bare in front of the eyes of the public for them to see.

The prodigy Manvar is still there and he is of the same level as Sam in cultivation.

As for the elders, every single of them that Jwala's father had any relationship disappeared. And there are many news names she never heard before. The head of the family is still the same. The father of Manvar.

Even the operations of the family are a bit open. Their weapons business is operated by Myun and elders.

The pill business is operated by Ayun.

The merene family runs an academy to train the kids of the realm and possibly recruit the ones that are really good and this academy is operated by an elder woman named Yona.

There is another important elder who takes care of the arts that the kids take up. He is in charge of assigning them trainers, finding suitable art for them and such his name is Manjan.

The people who are trained in the academy will be recruited to be the outer disciples of the family, this outer section is managed by one of the elders named Ramin.

These are the core elders and the rest mostly manage the administration, distribution of resources, and other businesses under the family.

Sam couldn't decide on how to proceed. The Merene family is not as powerful as the Night Demon family.

The strongest is obviously a late-stage Transcendent and they have six Middle stage Transcendent stage cultivators and fifteen Initial stage Transcendent stage cultivators.

As for the Peak stage and Late-stage Pre-transcendent stage cultivators are around a few dozen below them the middle stage which is Sam's current level numbered in hundreds.

They could use some of Sam's new tricks to tone down the numbers by a large margin. But the team wouldn't be too excited as this is also a chance to train themselves.

Along with that, the Gandharvas are a great resource as soldiers and fighters. Currently, there is almost a chess team formed by the demons he captures, from blood demons to the Night demons along with the undead creatures, there are only two more pieces needed in that team.

If he managed to create that chess team, he would brainwash them and send them to the main base to help in the expansion of the organization.

The organization has been stagnant for quite a while and it is stable than ever.

So, he needs to find some time for the expansion. He decided to capture two Gandharvas in Pre-transcendent stage cultivation and send them into the chess team along with demons and undead. These two Gandharvas would be the ones who specialized in music that could provide support to the team.

After all, there is a reason Gandharvas picked arts as their means of development. It is because the arts are something related to the soul and with their mental strength, they could involuntarily attack the other party's soul if they are strong enough.

The merene family might not be good enough to completely make someone crippled mentally. But they are good enough to create some mental distractions which would give enough of an advantage to the team.

Since he wanted to capture them he called for Jwala.

"Tell me which young masters bullied you the most?"

Jwala was confused a bit. So Sam continued.

"Since you are the child of a maid, then you would definitely be bullied by them. Tell me who went overboard."

Jwala didn't know why he is asking that, but she still pointed the two names that came to her mind.

Sam nodded and gave the task.

"Capture these two first. Only the Pre-transcendent batch should move. The rest go on and try to get more information from the city."

He gave the orders and the team moved instantly.

By that night the two targets were captured easily.

Jwala's was changed and her name is not the same as before so they didn't recognize her.

"Manzi and Miradav. How are you doing?"

She asked as she looked at them.

"Who are you? If you know who we are you should also know what we can do. Let us go."

One of them threatened instantly. Jwala walked forward and slapped him with a fire palm.

s

He looked at her sharply. The arrogance wasn't toned down one bit.

Jwala didn't take that look too well and kept on slapping him until that look was completely gone.

"Now you look like someone who is captured."

"Who are you? What do you want?"

"Just some payback. As for who I am, don't tell me you forgot about me this easily? It hasn't been that long my dear brother."
