He didn't say, "Of course I will do this," or even a simple "Yes," because such confirmation would have meant that there was an option to refuse, and no such thing existed between them.

他没有说“当然，我会这么做”，甚至也没有简单地说“好的，”因为这样的口头确认意味着还有拒绝的可能，而这种事情在他们之间是不可能发生的。

This kind of deviation is not allowed and if someone dared to say such a thing then the simple answer would be that he is not a true follower because a true follower would not say such a thing.

这样的反面说法是不被允许的，而且如果某人胆敢说了这样的话那么就得到了很简单的结论-这个人不是真正的追随者，因为真正的追随者不会说这样的话。
