บท 461: Oops
"""What...?"""
That was all anyone, even Alex, could utter when they heard the Omni King's remark. And it was only then that the Omni King seemed to have realized he said something he shouldn't have, as he quickly, added,
"Oops.... That was supposed to be a secret..."
*CRASH!*
Nearly everyone around the Omni King fell to the ground in exasperation at his comment, before Elaine stated,
"It would be moot point to avoid mentioning the Creator now Zeno, though I do hope you recall what he told you when you discussed the current competition." The Omni King looked at Elaine once more, the very person who's appearance confirmed Alex's identity to him, and said,
"Well.... I don't really recall everything he said since it was so long ago.... Hehe!"
*CRASH!*
Again, nearly everyone fell over at his words, while Elaine just sighed as she shook her head, before saying with a deadpan,
"Well, to summarize it, the Creator simply doesn't want you to needlessly Destroy any of the contestants."
"Ah! That's right!" The Omni King said while making another 'aha' gesture, before turning to Alex and Rias and saying with a slight bow,
"I'm sorry for trying to eliminate your wife earlier." This gesture shocked everyone present who knew the Omni King, as they had never seen him either bow or apologize to anyone, while a certain someone had a drastically different reaction.
"You tried to eliminate my wife?" Alex asked as his eye twitched slightly, to which the Omni King cheerfully replied,
"Yep! She is from 'outside', and things from the 'outside' can't be allowed in! But I'll make an exception for one of the Creator's contestants!" With an attitude that said 'thats that', the Omni King smiled widely as if he hadn't just casually mentioned erasing one of the women Alex loved.
...
*PA!*
"Please stop!"
*PA!*
"I said I'm sorry!"
*PA!*
"No more!"
*PA!*
The gathered crowds watched in shock as the Omni King, the most powerful, respected, and feared being in the Twelve Universes, was being spanked like a child by Alex.
To those who followed Alex this was just another day in their life, but for those from the Twelve Universes, this was perhaps the single most incredulous thing they had ever witnessed. Beerus, the god of Destruction for Universe Seven, was even collapsed on the ground and deathly pale, making some wonder if he'd literally been frightened to death at what was happening before him.
"Is the Creator truly such a fearsome being?" The Grand Priest asked Elaine hesitantly, as the idea of someone who stood above even the Grand Zeno was truly terrifying. The maid however readily nodded and said,
"The Creator is the one who created infinite universes and all of their inhabitants, including the 'King of All'. It's only natural that he would listen to the Creator, as the Creator was the one who granted him sovereignty over these Sixteen Universes, though there's only twelve left."
The Grand Priest was silent as he digested what Elaine had told him, but even if he wanted to doubt her words the truth was right before him. The Grand Zeno, the pinnacle of existence within all twelve of their universes, was being spanked by the man calling himself the Dragon Emperor.
Soon the spanking finally came to an end, and Alex released the Omni King from his hold as the child-like King rubbed his royally sore ass.
"That hurt..." He complained pitifully.
"Good. Maybe you'll learn not to Destroy first and ask questions later." Alex said with a bit of an edge in his voice, but the Omni King didn't say anything back since Alex could very well be his boss one day. Never did any of the Omni king's subjects truly think that one day the shoe would be on the other foot.
"Perhaps things should be left at this? Yes?" The Grand Priest suggested to Alex as he felt that spanking the King of All in front of his own subjects was a little 'extreme', especially since no real harm had been done.
Thankfully, Alex nodded in agreement as he said,
"I'd be more than happy to start over as friends if he won't Destroy me or my loved ones." The Omni King nodded as he paused rubbing his ass to say,
"Of course, I already said I'll make an exception for the Creator's people." Alex nodded as he held his hand out to the Omni King, and said,
"Ok then. Friends Zeno?" The Omni King looked at Alex's hand suspiciously at first, as he had just been spanked by it, before eventually reaching up and grasping it while saying,
"Friends!" The two then shook hands to symbolize their friendship, which mostly entailed Alex moving Zeno's entire body up and down like one would normally shake.
With that done, Alex then declared,
"Now, let's feast!" With a clap of his hands, Alex produced dozens of tables laden with food for everyone who was present to enjoy, Zeno and his attendants, Alex's entourage, and the nearby people of Pangea. It was truly a feast the likes of which a certain battle-crazed Saiyan would be very sore he missed, but no one thought about collecting him and his father from the space-time orb they were training in.
Also participating in the feast after Alex sent the OK, was his own children as they happily ran too and fro to look around and meet new people. The one they were most excited to meet though was none other than Zeno, who they readily welcomed as just another playmate while neither knowing or caring that he was the feared ruler of the Twelve Universes.
And as for Zeno himself, he seemed to really enjoy having someone to play with that didn't regard him purely with fear due to his status as the King of All. For the first time in eons, he was able to have fun and enjoy himself without being constantly reminded of his rank and position.
Nearby was Alex, keeping a watchful eye on his children of course as he reclined back on a blanket with Rias and Anne snuggled up on either side, and Ophis making herself comfortable in his lap. As the group was relaxing and enjoying themselves, a certain figure approached them that Alex wasn't quite expecting.
"Greetings Dragon Emperor. May I have a word?" The Grand Priest asked respectfully, to which Alex just sighed before crawling to his feet, much to Ophis and the girl's displeasure.
"Sure, what's up?" He asked while walking off a short ways, during which the Grand Priest was silent for a few moments, before finally saying,
"First of all, I would like to thank you."
"What for?" Alex asked curiously, to which the Grand Priest replied,
"Though he may look and act like a child, the King of All is far older than any of us can even comprehend. And in all that time I've never seen or heard of anyone who would speak or treat him like you did today." Alex cooked a brow and said,
"I take it that's a good thing?" The Grand Priest hesitated slightly before answering,
"In this case, I would say it is. Though it may be presumptuous of me, I believe i understand how the King of All has been feeling lately with his loneliness and boredom. Meeting you and your children seems to have changed all of that though."
Alex nodded slowly in understanding at the Grand Priest's story, as it was one of the oldest ones in the book. The 'all powerful being' being lonely and depressed because there's no one to understand them. It also made sense because Zeno also quickly made friends with Goku while making numerous exceptions towards his relatively rude behavior. It was also why Ophis readily accepted being friends with him as well, as she was so powerful that no one ever even considered trying to befriend her in the past.
"As cliche as it sounds," Alex began slowly. "Everybody needs a friend, or at least some kind of companion they can share their joys and sorrows with. When all you have is 'subjects', it can be hard to find such a person." The Grand Priest was silent as he contemplated what Alex said, before saying with a wry smile,
"I suppose you would also know about that, Mr. 'Dragon Emperor'." Alex looked confused at that, as he asked,
"Know about what?" This time the Grand Priest looked confused as he clarified,
"About status inducing loneliness..." Alex appeared even more confused at that as he asked,
"Why would I know about that?" The Grand Priest deadpanned as he slowly said,
"Because you're an emperor..." Alex cocked his head as he asked,
"What does that have to do with it?" By this point the Grand Priest's eye began to twitch as he stated plainly,
"Wouldn't people feel intimidated by you like they would the Omni King?" Alex just snorted when he heard that and remarked,
"Not at all. I may be the dragon Emperor, but I don't 'rule' over Asora like that." The Grand Priest only looked even more confused at that, so Alex decided to show him instead of telling him.
"Hey Joshua!" Alex called out to one of the men passing by, before tossing him a bottle and saying, "Have some sake, on me!"
The man grabbed the bottle out of the air and looked at it, before smiling wryly at Alex as he said,
"Thanks your majesty, but you know Sonya will kill me if she finds out." Alex waved away his concerns as he said,
"I won't tell if you don't." Joshua thought about it for a moment, before popping the cork in the bottle and said,
"To your health then your majesty!" Raising the bottle in a toast, Joshua quickly downed the contents as he went on his way.
The Grand Priest looked at Alex confusedly from the exchange, but before he could ask what that was all about Alex then called out to someone else in a friendly manner, asking how the renovations for their shop was going, before offering to help them out. For several minutes the Grand Priest watched as Alex talked to person after person as if they were best of friends, and they talked to him back in the same way.
When Alex finally turned his attention back to him, he stated plainly,
"I don't have 'subjects', I have 'people'. People that are loyal and even worship me, but 'people' all the same that I interact with on a personal level nearly everyday. And even if I didn't have them, then there are my MANY wives that will put me in my place if need be." Alex then looked towards Zeno, who was playing with his children, and said,
"Zeno only has 'subjects', of which only an infinitesimal amount even know he exists. Even if that didn't matter, the majority of his interactions with those that do know about him are comprised of him either commanding them in some way, or threatening to Destroy them. It's only natural that he'll eventually become lonely." The Grand Priest was silent as he contemplated everything Alex told him, before bowing to him and saying,
"I thank you for the discussion, it has been most enlightening." Alex nodded while thrusting a hand out towards the Grand Priest, and said,
"Any time." The Grand Priest looked at Alex's hand curiously for a moment, before grasping it with his own and shaking it like they were equals. After a second he then said,
"I'll be taking my leave now for a bit, as the King of All has asked me to collect the Gods of Destruction and the Kai's from the other eleven universes for a meeting. Before I go though, I want to say that if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to let me know."
Though he was going to say that he'd keep the offer in mind, Alex paused slightly before saying instead,
"Actually, there was one thing if it's not too much trouble."
***
As the hours slipped by things began to get pretty hectic on Pangea.
Starting with the arrival of the other twelves gods of Destruction, their Angels, and the twelve Kai's, as well as the Kai's of Universe Seven that Alex brought back when he killed Majin Buu. Then there was the people of Pangea that hadn't joined them yet, who gladly took the chance to relax on their training for a bit, and blow off some steam.
People even began pouring into Pangea from Asora as they heard of the Omni King's arrival and the subsequent party they were having. And as the afternoon wore on, Alex found himself wandering around the place with even his two youngest daughter's, Jade and Mochi.
The little Saiyan princesses were wide eyed as they took in all the sights and people around them, cooing and squealing excitedly whenever something interesting caught their attention. With Jade on his hip and Mochi walking beside him with her hand in his, the duo got to meet many new people, and were given numerous treats as Alex led them around.
"You really are a weird Saiyan, you know?" A voice suddenly drew Alex's attention to the side, where he found the two Bulmas standing there.
"How so?" Alex asked curiously, to which the future Bulma stated,
"Because I've never seen Vegeta or Goku spend so much time on their children the way you do. And based off of what Gine was telling us when Chichi gave birth to Goten, that's pretty standard for Saiyan men." Though he was surprised that Goten had already been born, Alex didn't question it since he correctly assume Chichi made use of the space-time orbs on Pangea to speed up her pregnancy. Instead, he simply told the Bulmas,
"I wouldn't hold that against Goku though. The guy DID retire from fighting when he got married to focus on his family, and only got sucked back in when Raditz showed up." The two Bulmas nodded in agreement, as Alex did have a point about that.
What he did next though made both Bulmas blush as he stepped forwards and said suggestively, "By the way, if you want someone to help raise baby Trunks I wouldn't mind volunteering, same with if you want to give him a baby brother or sister."
Both women turned completely red as they recalled when Alex 'broke' them, both in body and spirit. They thought they peeked with Vegeta and his beast-like attitude in bed, but Alex had proven them completely wrong.
Alex smirked playfully as he picked up little Mochi in his free arm, so that he was carrying both girls as they went to go find someplace else to play, leaving the two Bulmas with overheated minds.
...
Slowly day turned into night as Pangea's sun descended, casting a darkness over their party that was quickly dispelled by numerous lights that went up. Though they had all been tense in the beginning when they arrived, by now even the gods of Destruction had begun loosening up as Alex talked to them one by one.
The discussions went as one would assume for the most part, Alex could see evident scorn or judgment in the eyes of most goes of Destruction due to him being a 'mortal'. But when they learned of Alex's true status, that he went toe to toe with Beerus and even spanked the Omni King just earlier, they immediately became more respectful towards him. Meanwhile the goddess Heles apparently became enamored with Alex on sight due to his 'beauty', and was trying to curry favor with him, something he wouldn't necessarily mind if he hadn't been currently escorting two of his daughters.
Eventually though things had to come to an end, as Jade and Mochi both let out sleepy yawns in his arms, alerting Alex that it was time for him to bring booth them and the rest of his children into the space-time orb for the night.
Approaching Whis, Alex said,
"I'm heading home to get my children to bed. I'll see Zeno myself, but can you give the rest my regards?" Whis nodded in affirmation as he said,
"Of course! I'd be happy to help." Ale thanked him and was about to go and find the rest of his children, when someone cried out nearby,
"The moon looks so beautiful tonight!" Confused, Alex uttered,
"Huh? Pangea doesn't have a moon though?" As he turned though, Alex paused as he saw a silvery disk slowly rising over the horizon.
"Actually," Whis said as he peered into the orb at the top of his staff. "It appears that a passing terrestrial body was captured in Pangea's gravitational pull a few weeks ago. Good news, it appears as if it is capable of supporting life too!" As Whis was speaking though, Alex's mind was racing even as he swore under his breath,
"Fuck..." The vulgarity caught Whis' attention as he was about to ask what was wrong, before he noticed the two girls in Alex's arms.
"Oh dear..." He too uttered as both girls, who had been on the verge of sleep seconds before were staring wide eyed at the full moon.
"Fucking FUCK!" Alex swore in a much louder voice as he saw each and every one of his children staring at the moon with blank and empty expressions.

Harry_Dresden Thanks for reading!
Also, feel free to check out my other original series, 'The Dungeon Diver'. It's a side project that I'm not prioritizing, but I've gotten practically no feedback on it, so it would be much appreciated.
