After yesterday's events, news spread across the fiefdom in hundreds of big and important cities about Kahn, their new sovereign's activities. That when he visited some of the prisons that facilitated the criminals sent from throughout the empire, he uncovered a big scam.
That how the previous ruling government and officials had embezzled the money from the annual budget that was allotted to the prison management and put most of it in their own pockets.
The ministers and officials in charge were now under surveillance and being questioned by the authorities that were newly formed by the new ruler.
This revelation shook many of the normal citizens as well as people working in government sectors such as the ministry of finance. Many of the officials were now under custody and were brought in for questioning. As of now, nearly 40 people were arrested and many others were under the judiciary's surveillance.
Although it looked like Kahn was acting too quickly but in reality, these were the people whom his assassins had gathered the evidence against.
After he put more than 40 assassins in every one of these ministers and officials on the very first day of his arrival in Aesir after he conducted a meeting in the castle… these subordinates of Kahn spread and mixed into the shadows of the others who worked in these departments and played a part in embezzling money and malpractice.
And under the pretense of revealing the scam related to the money embezzlement of the prison management budget, Kahn and his own militia in gray armors started seizing the documents and records of these officials and brought them into custody.
They already knew where to look so it was going to be a smooth ride for him. And soon, he would go after the others who also had these assassins planted in their shadows as soon as they gathered enough evidence.
In a way, this was also his declaration that he wasn't going to stand the old management in the eyes of the elites and powerful. And this was just the beginning.
Unlike the capital Rathna, where Kahn was a nobody with no actual authority or power against the government or the noble factions.. Here, he was the one being who everyone had to answer to.
At the time of the noon, there was a secret meeting held amongst the top conglomerates and government officials who had ruled over this region from decades and now decides to come together and joined hands against a common enemy.
In a grand meeting hall, over a hundred nobles, military officers and aristocrats sat across each other and loudly discussed amongst themselves.
"Is he out of his mind?! Does he thinks we're nobodies?" spoke a blue demonkin noble in an enraged tone.
"How the hell did he find out about that much inside information so soon? He's been here only for two days?!" asked a dwarven conglomerate in a worried tone.
"That's not the issue… we need to think about how to a way to tackle this? What did the three main headquarters say?" asked a foxkin minister from the pureblood faction.
At the middle of this meeting hall, was a tall and grizzly bearkin who seemed to be one of the strongest people present in the room.
"We have relayed this information to the capital. But they're saying that we should stay silent for now. It's too early to act against him." spoke the bearkin in a solemn tone.
Just then, a middle-aged vampire spoke…
"Easy for you to say, Commander Aswala. Unlike you, we don't have any backing from the capital or the military.
Given your position, he might not even do anything to you. But it's not the same case for us. We don't even have a semi-saint on our side.
If he and his force of those gray armored bastards were to barge through our doors tomorrow, we can't even put up a resistance of any sorts!" shouted a dwarven businessman in a discontent tone.
At this moment, there were 3 semi-saints present in this meeting hall, and the one in the middle was none other than the semi-saint Kahn had warned on his first day.
"That's not the main problem here.." spoke the bearkin and looked around the hundreds of top figureheads around him.
"Don't you think he's moving too quickly?
Neither does he wants to become an ally nor wants our support to rule this fiefdom. He deliberately wants to become our enemy and make us stand against him.
Unlike how we expected him beg for our support or take a month or two just to understand how to rule this region... He's acting like he's done this before.
He knows where to strike first and on the day of his arrival, he already claimed to know who made what kind of scam and did what kind of crimes.
For someone without any background or experience in ruling… he seems to be well versed in this field.
And I'm afraid this isn't even his main card. The Ministry of Finance was just a provocation. Soon, I think he will hit other departments of the ministry and various military sites." spoke commander Aswala.
At his declaration… all the other people present had an aghast expression. They too understood that this was nothing but the first step and there was more to come in the future.
After his warring words.. Some of the noblemen and officials looked at each other and nodded in unison.
A lionkin semi-saint, one of the people who was present on the day of the meeting and belonged to the Neutral Faction stood up and spoke in a grim tone.
"How about we all work together and use our influence and connections to tarnish his name and spread rumors that he's doing this out of jealousy and wants to seize full control of the fiefdom to establish laws that would only benefit him?" proposed the lionkin.
Facepalm!
The bearkin facepalmed himself and spoke in an irritated tone.
"Are you out of your goddamn mind?! Haven't you realized that things have changed from the day of his arrival?
Everyone already knows that whoever throws stones at him first..." spoke the bearkin in an exasperated tone.
Many nodded at his words as they understood what the bearkin was about to say.
"Will become his biggest target!"
