Curitis had considered asking Basil Jaak for help, in fact, as soon as Elian's troops surrounded him, he thought of asking Basil Jaak for help.
However, remembering their past correspondence, he had vowed two months ago that he would never ask Basil Jaak for help. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the situation changed so quickly that he found himself in trouble.
The last words from Basil Jaak's letter, "Just wait and see," were vivid in his memory. Curitis sneered, feeling as if Basil Jaak had slapped him twice.
"Forget it, I won't ask him. I won't humiliate myself!" Curitis said with much "integrity," "Even if no one comes to help, I can defeat Elian on my own!"
His ideals were rich, but reality was stark; Curitis now truly understood what this saying meant.
