All that Lexie wanted was to kill Yogev, somehow the voices inside of her head were too loud now, her sister's laughs, cries, jokes, smiles, and random conversations with her mom.

Everything was too loud and it hurt her so much to the point where she wanted to end her life if she couldn't avenge them .

The only thing that comforted her was that she was not surrounded by people who accepted all that she said.

From what she saw, her people were too damaged to even think, the people of district 5 just followed him because he was stronger than their past leader, and the people of district 2 were too blinded by his charisma, however people of district 4 were not convinced by what he was trying to do .

So in total, Yogev got the support of three districts, district 4 was the only one that didn't follow what he was saying and they were her last hope to escape that spell .

" What do you think he is going to do to you if you don't accept what he is saying ? "  Lexie said out of nowhere.

" Shut your mouth, you little kid, " The mage who was responsible for locking her down said immediately .

" How many people have you trusted after the evacuation?  And they  all failed you somehow, do you think that these powerless greedy people are going to help or protect you anywhere in the future? You would be crazy to think of that as a possibility"

The mage got closer to her this time, he even wanted to hit her face when he heard from  afar.

" Don't touch that kid, let her say what she wants to say" Yogev said with a smile on his face. He was no longer with Heigl which made everyone think about his place right now .

Yogev said when he approached them more and stood in front of them:" What this kid is saying is right, you have trusted a lot of people along the way and they all failed you "

Everyone was surprised by what he said including Lexie who was speechless at the moment .

" I know that some of you want to leave this place, to show  you my good intentions. I will let them do what they want to do, how about that ? "

" What ? weren't you just threatening us before !" A person said from the crowd.

" That was because I wanted to save all of you, but now I am not taking that into consideration, who want to be saved will stay in here and who doesn't will leave but mark my words, if you leave now you will lose any chance to come back later "Yogev said with a serious face .

" Do you think that we will be back to you after all that you did ? " Another person said .

" You will "

" Why you are sure about this , I don't know about everyone here but I  am talking about myself, I will never come back to a place like this under your rule"

"

" You are free"

" Sir, are you sure about this ? " One of his mages said.

" The intensity of the triple full moons has increased in the past year and it will go much worse, no one knows when the next phenomena are going to hit district 1 too, this region is going to be destroyed completely, however, there is one safe place in here, and that place for me and my people"

One of district 1 people said:" What are you talking about?  there is no such a thing, we have been hit several times over the years when the portal opens"

" Did you hear one day that the seventh king's palace got destroyed when he was not around during the triple full moons ? We all know that all the people who leveled up leave the region before the event, however, each time the palace is the only area in this damn region that stays intact over the years"

" So you are telling us that this place is the safest on Delwias Island? it is just speculations  " A woman replied .

" How do you think we survived the last triple full moons when you looked us there , there were portals very close to us yet the monsters didn't show up "

People went silent for a long time, what he said made sense but even with knowing those facts they couldn't just stay under his rule after all that he did

A few people from district 1 and 4 started to move away from the palace, Yogev felt like he lost the bet yet he reminded himself of what Heigl said  when he was talking to him .

" You don't need indecisiveness or people who don't trust you on the team, there will be people who are willing to leave the place, prepare yourself to accept that, and those who stay make sure to treat them in a good way because they are going to be your soldiers.

That's basically what my father did his whole year, me and my mother we were the only exception to that rule, we didn't believe a single word that he said but he left us to stay by his side " Heigl replied while choking with his own breaths .

" Can't you just stay here with me because I feel like I can't do all of this on my own" Yogev was practically begging him with his gentle voice.

" You focus on the people I will focus on another thing "

" What are you talking about ? "

" See! Even if miraculously you  found a way to control the masses, you wouldn't do that for long with the state of the region. We have to find a way out. I know we will survive now but how about the future? Do you think we could survive until a year from now or two , I don't think so, and that is why I have to do something ".

" You could be a great leader with your way of thinking," Yogev said because he was too surprised by his maturity despite his young age .

"Me? NO …N o …I hate leaders " .
