AHAHAHAHAHAH! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH!! Goddamn, that was brutal! I didn't think you had it in you, Defteros!
But I don't!
I mean, seriously, your torturing literally cancelled the tournament! If that old Geezer Cranky was going to erase you from existence, before, imagine what he'll do now.Also serves that gold-bellied fatass right for invading my property.
I--
Sorry, ol' chap. But the proof is in the pudding. Can not deny, you really took your sweet time attacking that youwhatever. And, correct me if I'm wrong from a lack of experience, but... that's not what good guys do, is it?
Oh, you guys had your chance. Too late to take the high road on this one.
Also, I know it says "remains unknown", but I'd be genuinely surprised if that little emergency remote worked. If Kahtos had the time to merge with his Adaptor, then I'm positive he had the time to override his latent code.
But anyway. I know it's a strange concept for you, old ape. But there's this one thing that people usually do that given your history I'm sure you haven't heard of. It's called minding your own business.
Well, it was dumb of me to expect otherwise to happen.
What?
The tournament's cancelled. Turns out savagely tormenting your opponents doesn't go well with a lot of the contestants. Or some of the contestants friends. And after one match, nonetheless.
's probably for the best, actually. Although a certain company just might go bankrupt from the national backlash that is to take place.
It's obvious for some what they're going to do after, but I'm personally curious how that Viking Dude's taking it. He seemed really excited to face off against someone.
Four letters. S. O. U. L. Like the genre. it's not that complicated.
Where're you going?
To my spacecraft, if you don't mind. Something has come up.
I should feel honored. I border on enough relevancy to be considered important enough to be sent this. Regardless...
Wow! That sounds soooo exciting! Lemme just check to see how many shits I give before I tune in!
Oh. Well would you look at that. It seems I don't have any shits to give. I could go to the shit store so I could go get a shit to give, but that's such a far trip, I don't think I can make it there.
How sad. Looks like I don't give a shit about this new Choice Network at all. This was a waste of time.
I know what happened. Sorry 'bout the tournament... or the lack thereof.
Although disappointing, I has't nay doubt yond I shalt liveth to duel another day. Though aside from the callous fate Madam Rumia suffered, there is one thing which troubles me.
What's up, man? Talk to me.
The one hath called Kahtos. I hath felt a very... menacing aura from.... It forsooth reminds me of... him.
Him?
Indeed. The Wily Omega. Of which we know not his whereabouts at all. Could it be the one who used us plots something destructive this very moment?
....Let him. Whether or not he reveals himself, It won't end with us being his pawns this time. The CRN will give him everything that's coming to him. We'll make sure of it.
So has anybody won yet?
You do remember that a young youkai is currently hospitalized from an event that thousands of people watched live, don't you?
If you have the audacity to try and profit off of that by turning Gemini TV's PR disaster into your own PR boost, I have a couple of choice words for you.
It just occurred to me. I need to have a talk with a certain someone.
Who?
Screw you, that's who. Don't break anything and do not touch the KFC, unless you wanna volunteer to end up with an even worse fate that your duplicate would've gotten.
...Well, so much for the Tournament. What do we do now?
I say we look for a place to live. I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting kinda tired of hotel room service.
Oh, yeah... Somehow it only now just dawned on me that we're actually homeless.
Our first sleeping place since being stranded from our destroyed home universe was a cave*, how the hell was it not obvious that we were homeless?
No, I mean... This is the first time this was ever actually ADDRESSED. When we were lost across dimensions, we didn't exactly have the time to stop and think "wait, we don't have homes".
At least you HAD the ability to think.
Regardless, we need a place to stay...
...And I think we know who to go to to discuss that.
...
Say, didn't he look famili-
Frankly, I fail to see how our actions would cause their negotiations to fail when their are various other resistance groups doing the exact same thing. I want my factory back. I want Bio Star to rise once more. Our creators are rolling in their graves right now! We strike tonight!
...So...they want to talk.
Send a diplomat. Then ready an strike force when it fails.
But sir! They might want to compromise. This war might come to an end!
The talks will fail. Our ideologies are far too different.
...
Now they exiled?
Let me tell story.
Once they was a Monking that tried and tried again to lead his kind to victory, but in a different way. Rather than use nature, the machine vowed to work with it for a better future. However, the tribe disagreed with the Monking out of both stubbornness and fear. They exiled him and took his weapons so he wouldn't survive. And so, the exiled Monking wandered around the world and started to believe that he was indeed in the wrong, so he blinded himself as atonement. Then one day it came across a artist capable of creating anything, but lacked the imagination to do so. And so, the Monking helped the artist through drawings in the sand in exchange for knowledge about the world he now could not see and for protection. Eventually, despite the Monking being an machine incapable of the act, it became able to feel and-
Story time's over, ready yourself.
Hey! I'm talking over here!
Say it ain't so, Joe.
Proteus? What the hell are you doing he--
Stop it. Stop being petty and get your shit together.
Listen. I don't care who dies or who gets hurt, but when you sit there twiddling your thumbs instead of dealing with the fucking problem, that shit annoys me to my fucking core. I am done watching you gawk and scoff and pretend like the blood is not on your hands when the shit you've created does something that is a danger to everybody. I am done being civil. Take responsibility for your goddamn characters, or I will kill you.
The hierarchy can kiss my ass. The next time you fuck someone else over because of your negligence, you'll receive a visit from me... And it won't be all talk.
...Huh.
How was your talk?
Faaaaan-freaking tastic.
...
ing wonderful. Now we also have to worry about Green Aqua Man™ and co. pissing the UKR off. They're planning some raid tonight, apparently.
