Ash seemed unaware of the astonishment on everyone's faces, slowly saying, "Tamasi's intention is very clear. He didn't inform us and insisted on leaving secretly alone because he didn't want to drag us into this."
"The Mercury Wooden Horse is below, and this is his endpoint for revenge. He is willing to sacrifice everything for it, even if it means dying in there. If he succeeds, he'll accept death willingly, and if he fails, he'll have no regrets, even if there's no grave for him."
"But we are different. We have enmity with the Mercury Wooden Horse, but not to the point of sacrificing our lives to perish together with her. More importantly, we have found a way to leave, a future we can grasp."
Ash calmly stated, "We are just one step away from happiness."
