The King also spent some quality time speaking against the ritual killings of children and old people. He stated that these kinds of acts cause dark clouds to the people committing these acts and may even close one’s door on earth and in heaven. The King then advised that people should join the election with the knowledge that he possesses some talent rather than relying on the mirth of ritual murders.
