Capítulo 80: Bragging
"So, you expect some experts here?" Zangya rolled her eyes as she asked.
"Hm? No, I don't, as if there were any strong creatures on this backward planet. I just wanted to brag a bit." A vein popped after hearing that, but she quickly calmed down and inquired further.
"Brag? About what?"
"Of course, of how strong I am. I want to see them despair when they realize they stand no chance against me."
"Why?" She was confused.
'Why would someone like him feel the need to brag to some aboriginals about his strength? One can probably count the people who can match him in strength on one hand.' Of course, that was not the opinion Broly had on the experts of the universe.
"Because it is fun." He quickly landed in the middle of what appeared to be the market. She looked at the spectacle from above. He was speaking to them, of course they couldn't understand anything he said. He fired a ki blast on empty area, which resulted in them panicking. Next, what appears to be the tribe's chief, came out and dashed towards Broly and just punched out. Unleashing numerous attacks only to find it ineffective against Broly, who just took the attacks head-on without flinching. He slapped the chief away. Considering the difference in power, Zangya couldn't understand why Broly started laughing at their dejected and terrified faces.
He then flew to another tribe, but this time assumed an almighty being, who came to teach them, Zangya figured. She knew that only because she saw him draw out ki meditation methods. Although there was still a barrier of language, the strongest out of the group seemed to understand and kneeled down to Broly like he was a god. He again flew to another tribe and acted out another scene. A hero, a thief, a bandit, a lost person, a beggar…
Obviously Broly didn't go around this planet and acted out these scenarios because it was 'fun'. Zangya approached him and asked again, why he did that.
Broly gave her a look before he started to explain.
"I am acting."
"Acting? What do you need acting for?" Zangya was even more puzzled now. Broly laughed at her confused face.
"Because I want to be a villain and give some motivation." After saying that he turned around and headed to their ship.
Zangya pondered about his reasoning but she couldn't get anything out of it.
'To be a villain, to give motivation? Are there some heroes he wants to push? The galactic patrol?'
As she was pondering about it, her thoughts took a strange turn. 'Am I a villain?'
She couldn't help but realize that considered to this group, she was more villainous. Although she saw the three as devilish creatures in the beginning, she realized they were good people. They didn't go around and exterminate civilization or kill without reason like she did in the past. Of course, she hadn't spent much time with them, but this is how she perceived them. She on the other hand, after her race and her planet was exterminated, she only wanted to stand on the top of this universe. She unleashed her anger on the races of the universes and exterminated them. She only bullied the weak, while she never thought about the consequences her actions caused.
'In a way, no, I am a villain…' Suddenly someone patted on her shoulder. She turned her head and saw Broly smiling at her.
"What are you thinking about?" Broly looked at her, seemingly trying to pry into her mind.
"I- nothing."
"Do you want me to stop bully them?" Broly asked her in a teasing matter. Zangya furrowed her eyebrows, in her eyes this wasn't even considered bullying. He just pulled some stupid acts with them, but of course she wouldn't say that.
"No. I- It's nothing." It was only unnoticeable, but her eyes had a glint of guilt in them. Broly, who was unbelievable perceptive, saw this.
"…You were scum."
Zangya widened her eyes in shock, but more than shock she felt sad for how Broly saw her. She wanted to fly away but was hold into place by him.
"You know your uncle is a really good man, a hero. He took in countless people from different races into his city and protected them from a murderous race. He didn't ask for anything in return and even offered to guide the next generation of the other races. He even almost lost his life by protecting my and many other races. You on the other hand did what you wanted to do, killed and probably wiped out races…"
She gritted her teeth in frustration but couldn't rebuke him in any way. She endured it in silence.
"…but you have changed tremendously in the short time you were with us. You have softened up. Although we only forced you to train with us and chatted in the breaks with each other, you took this time to improve yourself and your attitude. It didn't even take long for you to become friends with the others.
From what I can see, you are no scum anymore. You know your uncle said that after you became more powerful, you became more arrogant and started terrorizing the milky way galaxy. It seems he was right. It only took a slap over your head and a different company to humble yourself. Maybe in the future you will be a villain again or a hero like your uncle. If you feel guilty about what you did in the past, there are plenty of opportunities to redeem yourself in the future. But if you don't want to, then don't…"
Zangya now became confused, didn't he want to tell her to do her best to be a hero?
"There are rarely true heroes that would give their lives for their righteous cause. Alea and Cana are nice girls and wouldn't create trouble for trivial things but to their enemies they are monsters and considered villains. I on the other hand would kill everyone who would disrespect me or get on my nerves. We aren't heroes, just a few battle crazed Saiyans who like each other. If you want to be a hero to redeem yourself, want to kill every living being in sight or just live your life, go ahead. We won't dictate what kind of person you want to become. No matter what person you become, if we get along, we are cool. Besides we are only here to take you to your uncle. Alright enough talking let's get inside. I want to get off this planet."
Broly left the stunned Zangya standing outside while he went inside the ship. Zangya was touched but started to think about what he was trying to say and suddenly started laughing.
'Basically, 'No one is perfect, and I don't care what kind of person you want to become, don't get on my nerves and I won't kill you', huh?
Interesting, although you said all that, it is not how you really feel, right? If I just randomly killed people on this planet, you would have probably stopped me. He just wants me to show my true face and my views on life and decide over me afterwards. Didn't think you were the kind who manipulates someone with your words. Good, finally a leader with some brain. Alright, if you want to see my true self, I won't hide anything. Become the judge if we get 'along'!'
Indeed, Broly could feel that although she opened up a lot to them, she was still on guard. He really only cared if he would get along with someone. He himself was doing whatever he wanted to do, but he still had a moral compass.
Though his moral was twisted a bit after being reborn into this universe or rather his sadistic nature and the love for battles came to surface, he still didn't love to cause or see mayhem.
If Zangya was just an unreasonable murderous cunt, he wouldn't hesitate to end her.
He already knew that Zangya was clever through their conversations and would recognize what he meant. If he realized that she was still hiding after what he said, it would also tell him something. This was a test not for her to become a hero but if Broly could get along with her and if she survives until she was delivered to her uncle.
****
They again started their journey through space. Nothing really changed in their routine except for the increased configurations on the panels and the dynamic between the three.
"Cana could you be more considerate at night. Someone on here wants to sleep after her shower!"
"Oh? Did I disturb your sleep? I am so sorry." Cana 'apologized'.
"Yes, you did, and don't you think you're a bit exaggerating? There is no way your 'moans' are real."
"Hmph. I didn't think for a second you would understand something like this old virgin hag."
"You!! Who are you calling hag? You horny slut!" Zangya retorted angrily.
"Oh, so virgin is correct?"
…
Broly smiled bitterly at the sight. Suddenly two arms hugged around his neck from behind and Alea whispered to him.
"She doesn't mince her words anymore."
"Yeah I know. She became really feisty with Cana after our stop. Maybe I shouldn't have encouraged her to open up."
"Well, I think it was the best thing you could have done. She doesn't have to hold back anymore. Although they are quarrelling, she seems happier now."
Broly slowly stroke Alea's hand while inwardly agreeing to her words.
