NOVPUBChapter 863: Chapter 857: Friend or Foe 1_1 Chapter 863 -857: Friend or Foe 1_1 Finn Lewis let out a slight sigh of relief, it seemed that they were not enemies, but rather from that Light Cloud Spirit.
“Hello, human.” A stranger’s voice resonated within Finn’s flagship, the figure was clad in magnificent armor, very much akin to the ancient armor of the Flame Nation, complete with a helmet, although only the face and eyes were exposed.
There was no nose, no mouth, only eyes, and Lewis couldn’t see any ears; the design was somewhat strange.
Yet, through the communication, one could see that the eyes brimmed with wisdom.
“Hello, Light Cloud Spirit,” Finn nodded and cautiously spoke, even though he still had no idea why the Light Cloud Spirit could understand him.
Finn’s words clearly took the other by surprise; they had not expected Finn to be aware of their existence.
Nonetheless, the leading Cloud Spirit soon replied, “We did not expect that you would be aware of us.
...
May I ask how our human friend would like to be addressed?”
“My name is Finn Lewis.
It’s not surprising that I know of you, but what I want to know is whether you come as friend or foe?” Finn asked the most pressing question on his mind.
If they were looking for a fight, he wouldn’t mind engaging in one, given that he had plenty of allies on his side here, but that might not be the case for these newcomers. 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
“Human friend, we have come in search of friendship.
Since you are aware of who we are, then you must know the purpose of our arrival.
Allow me to introduce myself.
You may call me Sekata Brown, hailing from another star cluster.
I am the current chief of the Light Cloud Spirits,” the leading Cloud Spirit performed a unique gesture before speaking earnestly.
“Well, if you say so, then there is certainly more for us to discuss.
However, if you come in friendship, what information can you share with us?” Finn spoke meditatively.
“We are the only remaining beings of our star cluster, holding in our hands the last of the Cloud Spirits’ technology.
I don’t know what kind of agreement we can reach, but one thing you must understand is that we have a common enemy, a demon from the darkness, from the void, attempting to devour the entire universe,” Sekata spoke solemnly.
Fitting for a race akin to those engaged in religion, the way he spoke was full of an air of mysticism.
Still, Finn needed to engage, “Sekata, could you please elaborate?” Finn decided to inquire cautiously after some thought.
“Of course, that can be arranged.
However, I wonder if we could meet in person?
Rest assured, we mean no harm,” Sekata replied seriously.
Even though the Cloud Spirit was speaking, Finn couldn’t see its mouth, which was indeed strange.
After pondering for a while, Finn, who knew more secrets than Jasmine Davis at the moment, finally nodded decisively and said, “Alright, let’s meet to talk.
But will I be coming to you, or will you come to us?”
“Your Highness, I strongly advise against taking any risky actions.
Although they haven’t shown any malice so far, we still can’t be sure of their intentions,” Luna Starfield’s voice once again resonated.
“My friend, may I know who you are?
Are you able to represent your faction?” It was clear that Sekata had an ample understanding of humans; after all, it was probable that later on, they would fight side by side with humans, so he comprehended human society well, aware that humans certainly have an organization, not quite the same as the Cloud Spirits, but apparently, the principle was the same.
