Seeing Aaron bow his head, the king immediately stood up and said, "Please, don't do that. I'm not so disrespectful as to make a representative bow his head," as he gently held Aaron's arms and insisted that he shouldn't.
"Then, my first definite request from you is this: line up your powerful soldiers who can hide themselves well near my room. In no more than 5 days, they will try to kill me," Aaron said, understanding the king's concern and thoughtfulness.
"To kill you? Who dares..." the king stopped his sentence midway and then said aloud, "the elders..."
"Yes, exactly. We may not be able to gather enough evidence to eliminate the head elder, but rest assured that if he even names one, or if we're lucky, all of them, we can take them down together. It will just shorten our time, but in the end, we'll have eliminated at least one of the individuals who have contributed most to the strengthening of the demons," Aaron said with a smiling expression.
