Zero Choice: My Path Was decided Before My Birth Chapter 11

Separate small rooms were reserved for students .

Parents came to visit them . . . after they were promoted to the Sacred School of Yellow River .

Jen also received the news of her guardian's arrival_

her uncle, aunt, and younger Li .

She got excited to receive the news and ran toward the meeting room 735_!!

She hugged Li and bowed toward her uncle and aunt, her aunt was happy to see her after two years .

She could see changes in these two years_Jen were looking more responsible and stellar .

She kissed her forehead to show her that her aunt missed her much in these two years .

They were also happy to know that she was promoted to Sacred School .

It would guarantee her brighter future_!!

Her uncle spoke to her . . . "I have been waiting for you to be seven years . . . now you are capable enough too . . . so its really time to hand to you_!!"

He brought small iron box_it was sealed carefully and from the looks of_it seemed that it was sealed for few years .

She kept it and thanked her uncle .

They talked about her time in Primary School especially Li eagerly listened to her stories .

Both her uncle and aunt were satisfied with her performance .

They brought for her more decent clothes and gold coins for expenditures .

They chatted for the whole day to their heart content .

She was sad but her uncle and aunt urge her to learn wholeheartedly and become Expert .

This was the wish they expressed the first time for her .

Jen promised them to learn with more effort . . . and that they would be proud to have her in future .

This meeting fueled her passion to learn higher levels of Contemplation_!!

They bid goodbye to each other .

She went back to her room . . . while her uncle and aunt prepared for the long journey to their home .

She received another message to shift herself in Sacred School lodgings .

Her luggage was delivered too .

It took her little to rearrange things in her new room . . . there were still two days for the welcome ceremony of new Primary Grade students .

She opened the seals of the iron box .

Box cover opened with a creaking sound and there was small booklet which was handwritten . . . when she flipped through few pages . . . the book title was 'Defender' and who wrote it . . . was not mentioned .

There was wooden box within the iron box . . . it had been lock and there was no key inside the iron box so wooden box could not be unlocked yet .

There was also a worn out paper she unfolded it .

"Since you are reading this paper means you are already seven . . . the wooden box within the iron box is also meant for you . . . only when you will be sixteen and what is inside belong to you . . . !!"

"You are next heir . . . destined too . . . remember you have to achieve what your father lost once, there is no better inspiration for a daughter than a father but this father of yours was tangled in petty matters that daughter suffered his absence . . . father is truly sorry…!!"

She could not read anymore . . . she was already weeping silently .

How simple were her father's words but still she could feel too much affection from these words .

She never missed her father not because she did not have any tinge of belonging to him also her uncle was affectionate enough that she never felt it this way .

There was locket shaped of a bow .

It was shining golden material made .

Its shape was new to her .

Pendants happened to be simple elegant but it was rude bow . . . but still she wore it on her neck and kept hid within neckcloth .

After all, this thing was left by her father for her .

She placed the book on a book shelf then closed iron box .

She carefully divided gold coins for three years expenditures then_!!

The room was meant for her three years accommodation with a locker for valuable things to keep safe .

She arranged everything in the room .

She had learned to keep her belongings with care and in proper way_!!

Two days were over and she was preparing herself to go to welcome lunch which was held every year .

These years . . . she was brought up on her own and she was better aware to represent herself .

She had learned many aspects of life but few were still a mystery for her .

She would learn them with next years if she did well_!!

There was sadness in the eyes of her uncle and aunt_which she could not understand_at that moment_ but when she was not busy_ she remembered the moment and felt that there was something that they wanted to tell_but chose not to reveal .

She would go back some day after her Sacred Grade and would ask them_ why they were sad_or whatever it was_she would solve the matter by herself .

If they were unwilling to reveal how they might tell her in future .
