Over-Confident

*sejiyoi's dream*

“I love you too seji.”

Seji was holding reina tightly yet she starts to fade.

“Then stay! Don’t fade. Please. I can't afford to lose you!!”

“NOOOO!!!” Seji shouts. They were tied to rope on long stick, which was being held in cart. They were Being taken somewhere.

I can see villagers around me. Me and Alec are tied on long sticks.

“Don't Shout , kid. We are almost there. My master, The Great Myst, will take care of you brats.”

“I gave you Food and shelter last night. And this is how you repay it? Just how cruel you are? Tying two mere kids? Pitiful.”

Villagers start whispering. And look at orip with bad look.

“we can’t help it, kid. Trust me, I have people waiting at home too. If I don’t take you to Master Myst. He will kill me.” Orip said.

“You people steal Mana from others and then do this? What else sins your master been committing?”

“Every villager here, who dare to speak against master, will executed immediately, like always have.” baldy said.

“You poor villagers. If I free you from your master what will be my price? Will you guys accept help from a demon like me? I never killed a single bird yet I’m facing this. I’m worried what you people will have to go through. I won’t hurt Your master if you don't allow me but if you allow me. I will make sure he regrets and gives you all compensation. Trust me, I am only tied because I beat these hooligans by myself last night. If I wanted, I could have killed them but I’m merciful enough to let them live. If don’t believe me ask them yourself.”

“Is it true, boss orip?” a villager came to orip and asked him. Seems like he knows badly well.

“I’m afraid it is true. They seem stronger than him. Lord myst, could try take them out with help of royal army but I am not sure.”

Villagers don’t look much convinced but then,

A women comes rushing, crying.

“I'm also from demon race and they took my child one night and sold him. Help me. Please get my son back" she was crying a lot.

Seeing that sure ticked me off.

“Villagers!! See this women? Does everyone have faced this kind of torture?”

They went silent because of the fear from their lord.

“Woi. Alec wake up. “ I whisper in his ear.

“Do not be afraid I will help everybody. Don’t be afraid from these weaklings around me either. I took them out single handily.” I said to villagers with pride.

Another person approaches

“ Holy Master! Please save us. The taxes are too much for us to pay"

Meanwhile Alec Wakes up. And says

“What’s going on? It’s so early.” Alec said. I whisper in his ear, “shut up and see around ."

“okay..” alec replied.

“oh my! That is hideous of your lord. He is supposed to be helpful to his people and that’s how he treats his people? Its shameful to even hear that. You guys should protest against him!! I’ll save you all from his bad deeds.”

“seji, you are overacting, no one will buy that.” Alec said in my ear.

Then everyone started shouting “SAVE US!! SAVE US!”

“You never know alec" I said to alec in his ear. He looked shock that everybody bought that.

“Your wish is Granted villagers. Be relieved! Baldy! Take us to your master now”

According to the info from baldy. Myst is involved in underworld business and is lord of this town called “Gines".

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

We reach the royal bungalow. Seems like lord lives here.

The news to lord have already reached about a demon trying to start revolution in town.

“Let them in. Prepare crucifixion and torture for them.” Myst had already ordered his servant.

Meanwhile we are inside the bungalow and being taken to Senate.

“Lord Myst! We brought you a big prey. He’s probably not a human. But other one is demon for sure.” Those 3 hooligans said while bowing to their lord.

Myst had blue hair. And was wearing a kind of head ornament around his head. Probably due to his rank. His cloths were of a royal. White cloths with blue buttons and laces. The senate room also had many chairs on which many people were sitting. Most of them looked old. The door’s left side had picture of Myst and on right side an Old guy. Probably the king of country.

“So these are the revolutionaries I have heard about.”

Everything was fine about him but his voice was of a kid. Shrink like hell.

“Your lord dodged puberty or something?" I’m actually laughing like hell after hearing his voice. It’s of a kid!!

“Ahahahahaha” seji laughs too.

With almost everyone in senate laughing.

“VOILENT VOICE!” He enchants those words and his voice becomes somewhat of a grown man.

“So he have to use magic to change his voice. How lame is your lord, people? Is it that tough to even control one's own voice? Or he simply lacks brain?” I again laugh a bit and Senate again joining in me. Wasn’t best troll I had ever done but I managed to provoke him.

“Silence everyone. You hooligans have insulted me. You will be executed publically!!” myst says while standing up and crying like a kid.

“Who Lost their kid please check in lord’s bungalow!! Oh also, hey kid send Myst please.”

“I’m no one's lost kid! And I’m lord myself.”

“Sure.” I said with a hopeless smirk.

“Anyways. May I know the reason you started revolution?” he dodged laughs and said with a grin.

I burn the rope with fire magic. Alec does same after me.

“I’m taking over as lord for sometime. If I wanted I could kill everyone in the senate right now but what’s fun in killing weaklings. Just kidding, I’m not interested in lord but return what you stole from people.” I said with over flowing confidence.

“So it means all this was fake. Am I right orip?” he said with grin.

“Ye-s.. master. We couldn’t find a way to save our life and pay back sir seji.”

*Flashback to time when they were making plan.

“We work for master myst. He’s lord of the town ‘Gines'. He does many shady things; including having people like us to get him good items and much more.” orip said

“I see. So that’s one problematic guy. We taking him down. That way I should be able to gain trust of villagers and I should gain a good reputation."

And I’ll be famous. It’s a gamble. Being famous could either bring fortune or completely ruin it.

“But how we do that?” alec asked.

“We will do acting in front of villagers. Baldy, your gang will tie us and take to the village and there we will create drama. Just shut your mouth there I’ll do speaking. Just go with the flow.” I said.

But in truth I’m not much of an actor. My acting barely used to convince teachers at school that I am sick. I can hope they buy it.

“As you say sir seji”....*

“You have defied me. You know what that means right?” Myst said while looking at orip. He looks at guards and continues with order, “ Execute them with these hooligans!”

“hey lord, that’s your picture on the wall behind my back? You with your King I assume?”

“Yes. And why?”

“I mean you saying ‘hooligans' a lot. Now that makes sense. But you shouldn’t insult your king.”

Everybody starts laughing again. Even though I just insulted their king with Myst..

“DO YOU KNOW IN WHICH STATE ARE YOU? YOU WILL BE EXECUTED PUBLICALLY BY EVENING. BEG ME FOR MERCY FOOL!”

“oh sure. Why not but first, Where is that women’s boy? The demon child who you sold off? You look rich enough and yet you are raising the taxes day by day?” I said that with anger in my eyes.

Senate starts having whispers.

“Tch! That’s our internal matter. Why you care? And who are you to care? And senate, don’t need to believe him. He’s lying obviously.” Myst says in anger.

“yea sure. Now I am a liar too. Anyways, whoever I am. Does it even matter? Your hooligans came to hunt us down last night. And they hurt my friend, Alec here. You aren’t going to get off that easily for that at least. True I couldn't care less about anyone else but to the point; tell me everything you know about this world.”

“Beg mercy or I’ll have you die here"

“Try me.”

“Guards. Kill him”

“Dark spears!”

The spears come out of ground and pierces through guards. All 10 guards have holes in their legs and arms.

“seji, we shouldn’t kill them..” Alec says. He gets panicked.

“Alec, I haven’t killed them yet. But they were ready to kill you.”

“I know, but it’s fine. They have families too..”

“Uh, fine. You know healing spell? Use them with light. It should heal them I guess.”

“Let me try.”

“divine rain!”

Divine rain starts to fall in the senate. Healing most of them. But they still cant stand properly. Probably they will need medical attention.

“I mixed healing attribute in divine rain.”

“Seems like working to me.”

“Anyways. Myst? Was it. Now you seen my power, you still want to fight?”

I been flowing with over confidence, After the fight with orip. But I guess I am underestimating them. If they all attacked at same time, I possibly can die..

Myst gets scared. I can see the fear of death on his face. But, royalty like him wont accept that. He controls his fear and says

“Very nice. I’m impressed!” Even though I can hear shaking in his voice easily.

“your voice is shaking itself though. And people. Don’t even think about running. I’m about to put an end to him and you all too, if you are involved.”

A Person from Senate stands up and says “We are not. This man works without us. We are here for nothing but agree with him. He barely let’s anyone disagree to his decisions.”

“I’ll decide tha-“

*A knight who Alec healed. Slashes on back of seji and alec. And they all are captured by lord.*

The “Hahahahaahahahahahahaha. These fools. I don’t know which bad deed they meant. But they all will be executed in front of every villager today evening. Tell every villager to come in the arena!” Myst gets relieved.

Guards capture all and put seji and others in cell...

“And my dear friend Sine. When did I disagree to listen to you? But anyways, I’ll ignore it this time. Take care next time.” Myst Said to the Senate man who stood up against him.

“Yes, Lord..” Old man replied with a sorrow face.
