Inhuman Warlock

Chapter 778

"Helping what?" Joana asked, acting ignorant as if he had no idea what Lucifer was talking about.

"I am an oddity, as you described. You didn't know why I was here or what I was. All you had were my words. Generally, the captain of the ship would've kept such a person a prisoner and wouldn't let him be free, let alone taking such a casual walk with them."

"You believed whatever I said, and you're trying to help me find a way. Not only that, you're even taking me back to your world. I can't help but feel like you're treating me less like an unknown prisoner and more like someone you want to help? Why?"

"Why? Maybe I just want to help a person for no reason at all? Maybe I'm just a trusting person?"

"To become a captain in such a massive organization, you can't be an idiot. I assume you're fairly clever... At least clever enough to not trust a person blindly. As for helping someone for no reason at all, I don't buy it."

" No one helps someone for no reason at all. At least not here. So are you going to tell me the truth? Why are you doing this?"

"Maybe here we just help people for no reason? This is a different world after all."

"No matter which world, the general character stays the same. Moreover, I have another reason. You gave me this one ring, which is just to protect you and your staff. On the other hand, you gave Xaen two rings."

" If I'm not wrong, the second ring is much more dangerous. Am I right? Just tell me why you're helping me?"

"Who knows. Maybe I'm interested in the unknown. Or maybe I feel like you're a big enough oddity that's worth making friends?"

"When a stranger says they want you to be their friend for no reason at all, it just means one thing. They can see a use for you in their future. Shall I ask what use you see for me in your future?"

"You're a very observant, young man. But I can't tell you too much. All I can say is that I see a bright future for you. And I want to be a part of that future if possible. I believe your bright future is my bright future if I'm your friend."

"So work hard and take all the help I give. In the future, you'll be glad you did it. In fact, we'll both be glad."

"Just know that I behaved really lightly with you. That ring is literally the least I had to do to you for our basic protection. We had much worse options for prisoners like we used with Xaen."

"If you want my friendship, you will have it. But if you don't want it, I won't mind putting you back in the cell. I'll leave the decision to you."

"What do I need to do?" Lucifer asked. "And what will I get in return?"

"You just need to be yourself. After you go through some tests in our world and come clear, I'll help you get citizenship of our world. With that, you can apply for a position in Star Alliance. I can use my position to take you in my crew."

"From that point, everything is set. You just need to grow to the best of your abilities. I'll make sure only to give your best reports. You'll swiftly get promoted. And with time, you will become a One Star Alliance Captain as well."

"And if I'm not wrong about you, your potential is even more than that. You can literally grow much more than I thought. It shouldn't be hard for you to become a Two Star member with the specialty you have."

" There is literally no other person who has a link with every species. You'll be like a unifying force, shining brighter than the brightest sky. Even if it's for a name, I'm sure the Star Alliance will make you a two star captain as a gesture."

"That's where my role will end. And that's the point you need to help me. You can help me rise to Two Star as a Two Star Member in the future. And even if you can't do that, you can at least help me in other ways. Everything would be worth it at that point."

"Do you want a connection with a Two Star member? Why don't you just contact the one who already is a Two Star Member instead of making a two-star member from scratch?"

"It's because I can't now. The Two Star Members are impossible to get close to. It's much easier to make one from scratch."

"I think I understand why you want to help me now, but what will I get? I'm not interested in the position of a Two Star Member or anything else? What's in it for me?"

"A lot of things. In fact, you'll get more benefits than me. As I said, it'll take a long time to find your world. That much time shall be enough for you to join Star Alliance."

"And once you're part of my crew, you don't even need to stay here. I can send you as an envoy to your world. There, you can do whatever you were doing. After you're tired of playing around, you can come back and continue the climb."

"You just don't understand the Importance of a Two Star member at this point. You'll be like the King of this Universe. There are literally no disadvantages for you in it. Moreover, you won't have to worry about enemies then."

"As a Two Star member, you'll have many Captains like me under you. That means you'll have multiple armies. I'm sure you can't be stupid enough not to see how useful that can be?"

"It is certainly an interesting offer. It's something I can't deny. But how can I be sure you won't delay finding my world until I become a member or even longer?"

"I won't. It's not like it'll take that long for you to become a member. Moreover, even if we found your world, do you know how much energy it'll take to get you there? The Star Alliance won't use that much energy for someone who wasn't at least a Captain Rank."

"On the other hand, I'll be able to help you with that as well.. I can use my authority and send you to your world as my crew member. If you don't join the Star Alliance, it's impossible to send you back even if we find your world!"
