Persuasion

Maethion had already guessed that talking to them would not be easy. Moreover, he had to convince the two of them to cancel the intention to remove their ability to use the power of the system. Or at least put it off for some time.

Maethion didn't just want to protect Clyde and the five people. But he also wanted to protect the Senior Council and this Fortress.

If the Senior Council agrees to eliminate Clyde's power, then Clyde will of course not stay silent. He would fight back and Maethion was sure that any resistance he put up would create a huge mess.

He still wasn't sure if Clyde could beat the Senior Council let alone the strongest members within it who were hundreds of years old.

However, Clyde is not an easy opponent. Coupled with his mysterious power that is not yet known. The risk would be too great to let these two sides clash.
