Capítulo 94: Second Divine Beast
Having taken care of that topic Darc handed Arkis some documents over. There were things written on it that needed to be taken care of.
She looked into them and nodded. "So I am supposed to bring back that tree?"
"Well, a seed of it will do. You should join Lite and the others on that trip. Who knows what they may encounter. There were after all also some reports about an artificial intelligence going rogue on that planet.", said Darc in a calm tone.
"Artificial intelligence? Why would it be a danger? We also have AI´s around us.", commented Bulma.
"Your artificial intelligence is still somewhat on the level where it does not have emotions and only reacts to the way it was programmed. I mean that it serves us and does not harm us. But that other AI I mentioned does not have such limitations. Its core purpose seems to be to survive and it doesn't apply morals to that. Or else the reports wouldn't mention harvesting and killing of biological lifeforms.", explained Darc.
Bulma was silent for a moment. "For that to happen the code in its program would have to experience severe logical errors...That or someone actually programmed it to do so."
"It doesn't matter what the cause is. If it is going against biological lifeforms, it needs to be taken care of. So Arkis, if you find that AI you can destroy it. But if it becomes dangerous you better bail out. Robots and the sorts can become very dangerous if the build is right...", answered Darc and thought about that lunatic of a scientist at the universal tournament of power.
"Alright, I will keep it in mind.", said Arkis.
"Oh, and help those guys from GP out a little bit while at it. They are already nearly finished with the headquarters in the eastern quadrant. I must say they are getting more efficient by the day.", added Darc and waved her his ok that he is done.
Arkis nodded and teleported away after finding the signatures of Lite and the others.
Bulma still looked at the place where Arkis was and then focused on Darc.
"And what are you going to do now. Running away as well now? You made a promise, remember that.", she said to him.
Darc looked at her and smiled. "It is called work. And lately, the mountain of paperwork just increases exponentially. But I am just going to a certain place in the western quadrant this time around. It won't take long I think.", he said and stretched out his hand.
At that moment his created staff appeared in his palm. This staff could be teleported to his location at any time. He didn't really use it in combat though. So mostly it was like an accessory. But there was a certain way that this staff could be used.
Darc stared into the orb and searched the western planet somewhere around the coordinates that the drive showed him. And in no time he saw the planet he was looking for.
"Well then. See you later.", said Darc to Bulma. "Kai-Kai."
Bulma only sighed and stood up. "I will get to work myself then. What dress should I get?"
-----
Appearing on said planet Darc looked around himself and teleported the staff away so that he didn't have to carry it around.
From the data, he already knew the atmosphere was breathable. Come to think of it a lot of planets had breathable atmospheres and it was harder to find planets with toxic or otherwise dangerous hazards in them.
What Darc saw while scouting the area from above was a very thick jungle like forest with a lot of wildlife in it. When he spread out his senses he could take in some signals close by that were stronger than normal.
Flying there didn't take long and he compared the little settlement he saw with the one from the drive. Seeing no real similarities he continued on searched until he finally found the place that looked very familiar.
When he landed he was greeted by furious people with spears in their hands. They all had catlike features with fluffy ears on their heads and a tail at their back. Their skins were also furry at some sections like arms and legs and showed different variations in color and pattern.
Darc only raised his hands and smiled. He didn't come here to wreak havoc so he had to be passive.
But just like he thought he was greeted as a danger and someone who had something that looked like paint on his body moved forward he started to attack Darc with his spear.
Darc only leaned to the sides or stepped away from danger to avoid every thrust. When that guy used a technique to sweep it was enough. Darc caught the spear and pulled on the spear in one motion.
Grabbing the warrior he placed his hand on his head and searched for any information that looked like language. Finding it Darc extracted it and shortly after took the warrior hostage.
The other people became wary and closed in.
"Whoa, there. Don't come closer or I will do something to him. You should at least think to that point.", said Darc in their language. It came out with a heavy accent on his part because it was hard to pronounce some words with those hissing and cracking sound they made.
The tribespeople were surprised when they heard him use their language.
"Who are you? Are you not an enemy?", someone asked now.
"No, I am just a visitor. I came from another planet...Well, you probably don't know what I mean. I come beyond the sky. Really far away.", said Darc back. Some of them started to whisper again.
The guy Darc took hostage also said something now. "Hmpf, you came from another planet? That is unlikely. Our god has formed a shield around our planet that makes entry pretty much impossible."
Darc was surprised but his words.
"Wait, so you do know there are other planets. More civilized than I thought. Hmm, a barrier you say?" Darc looked up and shot a small ki blast into the air. And there really was something that blocked his energy and dissipated it after it was close to reaching the cosmos. "Interesting, you are right. But I used something else to get here so such a barrier won't hinder me."
After doing that the people were shocked and somewhat nervous to see him shoot energy.
But Darc just let go of the guy that he held hostages and smiled at him.
"I am just here to talk to that god of yours if it is alright. I won't do anything bad or the likes. Just a little chat and I am going back.", said Darc and tried to be friendly.
But before he can even talk with them further a loud rough voice was heard in the air.
"Let him through. He speaks the truth. Blessed one, meet me at my home.", it said.
"Well, looks like he already knows I am here now.", smiled Darc as a reaction.
The tribesmen all stood at vigilance but didn't raise their weapons any longer and let him pass further into their settlement.
It was one that was close to a mountain range and traveling a little bit he could see what looked like mine. It was decorated with what looks like precious metals from this planet and other offerings.
In the end, it was actually no mine but a cave and the home of their god. Well, cat people worshipping a tiger is not something unnatural. Especially when the tiger had magical abilities.
The people were called the Minto and their history is about a few thousand years old. Not much compared to other races but with the help of said tiger, they have a higher range of knowledge concerning the universe.
"So, what brings the blessed one here?", asked a little white tiger cub while licking its small paws.
Darc looked at it and was somewhat smitten by the cuteness. He had something for small creatures like puppies and kittens. The tiger cub noticed that and smirked. It stood up all prideful on its four little legs.
"Are you that amazed by my demeanor? I know I am a powerful white tiger after all. So it is to be expected", it asked again.
That nearly let Darc chuckle out. Looks like that little fur ball actually had a massive pride just like its parent the white tiger.
Darc just sat down in front of it and smiled. "First, what should I call you?", he asked.
"My name? Oh, right. I am called Luna.", it said back.
"You are...female then?", arched Darc a brow and once again asked this cub a question.
"What is with all these questions. Of course, I am. Cant, you see that? Now, say what you are here for already.", said Luna and its voice became somewhat annoyed.
Darc his mouth twitched a little. "Well, first my name is Darc. I am here because I am searching for all 4 avatars of the 4 divine beasts. I already found the immortal phoenix."
"Azul? That guy is still on earth? I thought he left like we did when Beerus destroyed most of the planet. But then again, you humans still seem to be alive. So it makes sense.", said Luna with a yawn after being finished with cleaning herself and put her head on her paws and stared at Darc.
"I see. So that bird is older than I had thought. I presume you are actually all as old as time itself. And Azul? That's his name?", sighed Darc out after finding something out that he didn't know.
"That is correct and he hasn't told you his name? It doesn't seem like him.", she commented.
"Well, to tell the truth, I didn't ask, haha", laughed Darc a little bit sheepishly.
Luna only snorted. "So, are you actually here to bring me back to earth? I am going to have to disappoint you. I pretty much like it here. And the people also wouldn't agree that you took me away. Also, are you not forgetting something in your count?"
"Yeah, after seeing all the things in front of your cave, I can imagine that. But can't we make a deal or something. You seem to protect these people. What if I made sure they would get protection and a boost in technology? And what do you mean with forgetting something?", gave Darc as a bargaining chip and also asked about her last words.
"You are counting four divine beasts but you are forgetting the fifth. Tell me what divine beasts you know of.", she answered.
"Well, there are The Vermillion Bird, The Azure Dragon, The White Tiger, and the Black Turtle, right?", reconfirmed Darc.
"That is right. You named every divine beast of all directions but are missing the center. The golden Kirin or Yellow Dragon as you sometimes mistake him as...", told Luna. "Well, nevermind that. Let me think about your offer."
After those words, Luna seemed to think about it while her tail slapped from one side to another. It took some time until she talked again.
"Well, Father would like to give you a test first. Then we can talk about me following you back.", she said and stood up. Her cute blue eyes started shining brightly and Darc was thrown into white space.
Looking around he could feel he was already in a different dimension. That this avatar was way stronger than that bird is really something. But it seems everyone specialized in something else.
"Hello, child." That was the only thing heard and a colossal image of a white tiger appeared in front of him. His majestic demeanor was way off the scale. It felt like his gaze penetrated into the very fabric of Darc his being.
REFLEXIONES DE LOS CREADORES 
Soulcrystal
Soulcrystal The last Chapter was redone somewhat.
Anyway, I also think I will speed up a little with the pace. Not sure yet.
Also, should I keep the divine beast of the center as the Kirin or as the yellow dragon? The yellow dragon would actually suit Zalama more in the end. Whereas the Kirin makes it 5 distinct divine beasts
Enjoy.
