Take Over(2)

Felix first time Sehjal sitting in the garden with a weird smirk on her face.

"Hey what are you planning? You are totally looking like a devil with that ghostly smile on your face"

Nothing serious., you will saw later anyways. I thought something after slave trader incident. I can only make changes either by having "White lotus hollow" or being a tyrant, rest these people will go on claiming their blood ties and generation old vows.

White lotus doesn't suit me so i decided why not be a Tyrant then, either way they want all the power from my hands and if I want to take it back from them I cant be lenient Don't I??

"What you say Felix?"

Ummm.. If I have to say I think in past years you don't act like a proper lord. You let others overwhelm you easily. You care about others opinion a lot and let them take advantage of you. Responsibilities and power should be given to those who deserve rather then members of your own family.

But I think you really looking thorough into the matter now. I appreciate that but you need to have power to back up the claims otherwise it wont be that easy to handle the fogies and let them give up who are holding the power more important their own life.

Then when time comes, let them what is more important for them power or their life. "Have you prepared everything as it needs to be?"

On the other side all the elders who were previously at the meeting with Sehjal earlier wee sitting together and discussing about the reports to be presented.

"Don't you think he is acting weird this time? He never went against our decisions."

"then what ? What can he do about it? Afterall its us who are helping the kid to maintain his territory. He know nothing about management, all he is good at some archery and sports."

"IF he took away the rights from us then?"

"He cant do it anyways, who do he think we are? We are not some vegetarians."

"Its not a big deal, he only needs some reports, then give some to him. "

"Who he think he is to ask to report to him? whatever lets see what kid has to say tomorrow?"

Some with bellies full of anger and some with anticipation waited for the tomorrow to come. Sehjal and Felix were awake all night to make the preparations for the upcoming meeting and lots of other were kept awake. In the darkness, lots happened with no witness and lot are to happen.

Finally night ended and the dawn broke the serenity of the night. it will bring peace or chaos who knows??

With this the meeting finally started even before the breakfast hours. When sehjal entered she saw the same seen elders sitting there and gossiping on topics totally un relevant issues without any intention to welcome her or showing any respect. Underage or not in the end right now she is the acting lord.

"Oh with all the discussion going on I think you guys have a pleasant stay Don't you? Now lets see what we have here?" So do we have any reports here ? When Sehjal took her seat no one notices that there were more guards present than required in the room nor Felix who was holding a bundle of papers. They were all lost in their own world of self importance.

Felix noticed Sehjal having the same smirk as yesterday when she planned everything out. He inwardly prayed for the fools who were all acting all mighty in front of the real devil. He is feeling some pity for them. He thought " Idiots its still time". alas but nobody is able to hear his inner voice.

They all cursed at Sehajal for acting without any concise. As the rights they have were given to them by the grandfather of Sehjal and even the Lord i.e. Sehjal's father never asked anything about it. They only need to present the report at the end of the year and are free to do as they want for the rest of year.

But they forgot about one main point, the rights were given to them so that they can support sehjal's father in his absence as he is mostly in capital and it was never theirs to begin with.

Sehjal is only giving them a wake up call and want to give them last chance for old sake.
