"I believe we've offered far more than anyone else, haven't we?" Kayden smiled as he saw the old man struggle to find a response. "Gather a few thousand mages with proficiency in spatial laws and move your city to my world. We will provide all the resources needed for this task. Additionally, Atena will personally guide you in achieving your goals."
This was Kayden's trump card. At this stage, he had laid all his cards on the table. The old man likely wouldn't refuse, but…
"No, I won't abandon this world."
"You're willing to lose your life's work and keep fighting for it? Because once your master dies, everyone will descend upon this planet like madmen. They won't come as allies but as slavers. Your work will most likely be destroyed." Kayden's words, a mix of veiled threats and calculated truths, planted seeds of fear directly in the old man's heart.
