"Resist? How do we resist?"
"With the handful of people we have?"
"Forget about Father... even his elite guards alone are enough to slaughter us! The only reason we're still alive is because we might still be useful."
"This time, we can't escape!"
...
The princes were all extremely pessimistic, and the most terrifying part was that they were speaking the truth.
The fourth prince, who had been somewhat spirited earlier, collapsed instantly: "Then why don't we just surrender? Sacrifice ourselves for the country?"
As soon as he said this, the other princes and princesses, who had been speaking despairingly, immediately fell silent.
Even ants cling to life, let alone humans, especially those who had been pampered and enjoyed so many of life's luxuries from a young age.
Expecting them to sacrifice themselves for the country? Impossible!
"I don't want to die, and I don't want to sacrifice myself."
