The Prime Minister fell silent for a moment after hearing his son's words, then agreed with his son's suggestion!
He had only this one son; if he were to be sacrificed in another assessment of the Beast Tide,
all his efforts would be in vain. Having his son stay by his side, in the Capital City, was the safest option!
The North was thousands of miles away from the Capital City; the attack couldn't possibly reach the Capital City so quickly!
The Prime Minister thought for a moment; with the Ten Great Clans so united and the young people from the smaller clans having all gone, sending someone could occasionally cause some chaos, muddying the waters, just to frustrate them!
With this idea, he sent out a confidant; since his son wouldn't go, he needed to find a stand-in. That way, when accomplishments were made, the credit would naturally go to his own son!
None knew of the Prime Minister's secretive planning for the time being!
