This is a lifeline, and the temptation is undeniably strong. Indeed, after hearing Waldo's words, Tristan didn't hesitate for a moment. He immediately knelt down and bowed.
"I, Tristan, am willing to become a slave, acknowledge Waldo as my master, obey all commands at any time, and never betray. Otherwise, I'll die immediately!"
Very decisive, without any hesitation. He knew this was his only chance to survive. Otherwise, there was only a dead end.
"Okay, since you're willing to become my servant, I'll spare your life," Waldo said casually. Then, with a cold gaze, he glanced at Tristan and said, "However, let me remind you in advance. You must completely and unconditionally obey any of my orders, without any intention of rebellion. Otherwise, once I find out, I'll make your life worse than death!"
As he spoke, the temperature around them suddenly dropped. Tristan swallowed hard. At this moment, he had a sense of heart-pounding fear.
