He didn't really wanted to let perseus live because of the oracle,perseus lived because of king acrisius's stupidity.king acrisius thought that the way to avoid his fate is to put his daughter and his grandson inside a chest and throw them into the sea.but the chest was discovered by a fisherman named dictys and so he treated perseus as his own for he was child less and that is the reason why perseus is still alive its all thanks to the stupidity of the king and the one who discovered(saw/saved) them the one and only dictys ^^
