"Can we proceed with trial Young Lord?" The eldest tribe-head questioned after explaining the rules of the trial to Ashen.
Ashen didn't answer, instead, he contemplated:
So this means only one of these children who are participating in this trial will come back alive and all others will simply die.
Glancing at Yan Li, he continued:
Meaning Yan Li will die too!
Should I interfere in this or let it continue?
As this thought came into his mind, his eyes widened:
Wait! Why do I care if he lives or dies?
It's his decision in the first place to participate in this trial.
He should be the one to suffer the consequences.
Making up his mind, he answered to the tribe-head: "You can proceed with the trial!"
The tribe-head let out a sigh of relief before stepping forward to address the gathered children in the ring.
