章節 1741: Another Great Opportunity.

A council member expressed his thoughts. "I think this is a good idea. You should do what the gods want. Do it to gain their mercy."

Other councilors joined in and spoke in agreement. They know that he is about to die, and they can wait. But they would rather not wait. They would like it if he gives up his position earlier so that they can fight for it. 

The chief just sighed. It is the sigh of a defeated man. 

He thought to himself, "I am about to die, but they still can't let me die in peace."

He knows what they are after. And he can refuse. But he agreed. It is because he wants to see them fight over his position before he dies. 

The position of chieftain can only be acquired with strength. Those who want to become the chief must fight with their lives on the line. It is a death match with only one victor. The survivor is then bathed in the blood of his enemies.
