บท 434: Ashahell's Ultimatum(2)

As soon as Daneel heard the last part, he regained control of his mouth.

First, he coughed to make sure that he could speak again.

After that, seeing that Ashahell was looking at him with an expression of hope on his face, he really felt like laughing at his own situation.

Here was a man who had taken a special interest in him because he thought that he wanted to save Angaria, too. And if he didn't join him, he would die.

What was he supposed to say now? That's great, let's be brothers and let's go save this continent together?

No!

Daneel could tell that there was a lot here that he wasn't being told.

However, he had no idea how to ask.

This wasn't a multiple choice question: if he said no, he would most probably die.

As the gears in his mind turned, he tried to find a way out where he could live and find out more.

After a few seconds, he finally got an idea.

"If we are truly going to save all the people of Angaria together, then I would not hesitate to join you."
