"He wants you to go to the Holy as a hostage?"
Clearspring didn't hesitate for a second, "Impossible, I will absolutely not agree to this condition!"
"Agree to it, this is the best outcome,"
Clearspring didn't know that this was exactly Saros's initial plan; he had schemed everything and laid out such a route.
"Let them feel the strong potential of Clearspring, realize that I am the one causing all this," Saros said, "Then, they will focus their attention on me and target me alone."
"You planned from the start to sacrifice yourself?"
"Yes."
Saros smiled, "Isn't it good? To spare as many people as possible and let the hatred dissipate with my departure."
"But you will die!"
Clearspring couldn't accept such an outcome, "The Emperor Candidate, that person, he remembers every slight, you've humiliated him, how could he possibly let you off?"
