Dan didn't want to deal with Alex's attack. He no longer had the power to save his daughter and wife that were trapped inside the fire.
While observing Alex's attack, he realized something – Alex could control fire at his will.
He would easily increase the intensity and strength of the fire and could reduce it whenever he wanted.
Dan's wife, Irina, was quite a power battle mage too, but she was not at the King level. Of course, while she controlled the element water, her power would be nowhere enough to rival that of Alex.
Thus, Dan knew immediately that other than Alex, no one could save his family.
"I am ready to do whatever you want, but please, just save them!", he shouted.
He even knelt in the air.
