As much as Ves wanted to keep pumping Hugo for more information, the Cyber representative eventually had to end the call.
"I have reached the allotted time for this introductory dialogue." The projection of the white-haired cybernetic man spoke. "There is clearly much more for us to discuss, but that can wait for another day. There is much that I am willing to share with you, but you should understand that reciprocity is an important principle in the mech industry and beyond. Our Cybernetic Empire has made sacrifices to buy more time for us and invested a great amount of resources in the development of our new tech."
"I understand, Hugo. I do not think I have much to offer, but my input should still be valuable nonetheless. If you don't want my knowledge, then I can always trade in goods such as superdimensional matter. Will you guys be negotiating with the Larkinson Clan or with me directly?"
