"Then, I should go with Brother Finn."
Jens scoffed. "No way. You have to study, and this matter shouldn't be disrupting your lessons."
Baby Robbie replied listlessly, "Oh man. I go to school almost 365 days a year. I'm going mad from studying. I won't be stupid if I miss a day or two."
Jens retorted, "You still can't do it. Mommy will be very upset."
"Then don't tell Mommy."
"No."
"Jens..."
Ultimately, Jens looked for the four leaders of Ghost and sternly said to them, "I'm going to give you four the task of picking up Mr. Boye from Cloud City. The journey will be perilous, so the four of you will be drawing lots. The one who draws the shortest stick from my hand right now will be heading to Cloud City
Jenson was holding four wooden sticks in his hand and placed them in front of Finn and the others, saying, "Go ahead and pick one."
Finn firmly said, "There's no need to draw lots. I'll
head to Cloud City.”
The other three proceeded to look at each other.
Of course, since Grayson knew what was in Finn's head at the moment, he tried to fulfill Finn’s wishes by pretending to conclude things for him. "Well, out of the four of us, Finn does have the best combat skills s o it’s most suitable for him to go.”
There was a hidden trace of worry in Tempest's eyes.
Finn was whole-heartedly worried about Baby Zetty at the moment, so when he heard that Cloud City was in danger, he lost his sense of propriety and completely forgot that Baby Zetty’s reason for leaving in the first place was to escape him.
Meanwhile, Grayson was merely focused on lending his moral support to Finn.
Hence, Tempest said, "Finn, any one of the four of us should be going, but not you."
