Vados: Cus Sister, Help Me With A Favor

"I just returned from Universe 3 and am preparing to head back to Universe 10," Cus said. "What about you, Vados?"

"I'm coming back from Universe 7 and heading home to Universe 6," Vados replied.

"And this is..." Cus had noticed Vegeta behind Vados some time ago.

"This is Mr. Vegeta. Lord Champa is considering training him as a candidate for God of Destruction," Vados explained briefly.

"He doesn't look very old," Cus said with a smile.

"That's why we have to start training him young. After all, Lord Champa has no intention of retiring yet. Perhaps by the time Mr. Vegeta is fully grown, Lord Champa will be ready to step down," Vados said with a laugh.

"I see..." Cus had only asked out of casual curiosity and had no intention of prying further.

"You should come visit us in Universe 6 when you have the time, Sister Cus," Vados invited.

"I'd love to. I'll definitely come when I can," Cus nodded.

The two beautiful angels exchanged a few more pleasantries before bidding each other farewell.

They flew off in opposite directions and soon vanished from sight.

Vegeta: "..."

Is chatting between angels always this boring?

You could at least gossip about something.

Instead, they just talked about absolutely nothing.

Vegeta shook his head.

As Vados was flying, her staff suddenly vibrated.

Vados paused for a moment, then immediately turned her gaze toward the staff.

"Oh my... it's the Grand Minister," Vados murmured, taken aback.

Vegeta was startled as well.

Could it be that my oath... the one about making the Grand Minister eat shit... was overheard by him?

If that's the case, things are looking pretty grim.

Give me a few years to develop first, at least.

How am I supposed to beat you right now?

"Don't you dare say a word, do you hear me?" Vados warned Vegeta.

"Rest assured, my lips are sealed," Vegeta replied.

Vados: "..."

I feel like there's a hidden meaning in your words.

But I can't quite put my finger on it.

Vados stopped paying attention to Vegeta and immediately opened a communication channel through her staff.

"Grand Minister, it has been a long time," Vados said politely.

"Vados, come to the Omni-King's Palace. I have something to discuss with you," the Grand Minister told her.

"Right now?" Vados asked, slightly stunned.

"Yes, right now. Is there a problem?" the Grand Minister asked with a smile.

"No problem, of course there's no problem," Vados replied.

"Then I shall wait for you at the entrance of the Omni-King's Palace," the Grand Minister said.

"Understood," Vados nodded, changing her course mid-flight.

"Come alone," the Grand Minister added before ending the call.

Vados: "..."

Vegeta had clearly heard it too.

Vados had essentially been on speakerphone.

Vegeta had heard every word of their conversation clearly.

Vegeta wanted to curse out loud.

Grand Minister, what is the meaning of this?

You told Vados to come alone?

What about me?

Am I just going to be dumped here?

I'm going to die out here!

Wait, no, I shouldn't be able to die.

Aren't I immortal?

Although this immortal body is equivalent to a beta version.

It should be impossible to die.

"Did you hear all that?" Vados wore a helpless expression and added an explanation, "The Grand Minister is the most powerful god in all the universes."

Vegeta had known this for a long time, so he wasn't particularly surprised.

The only thing that made Vegeta feel a headache right now was...

Are you seriously going to leave me here?

"What's the plan? Are you just going to dump me here?" Vegeta snorted, "Even if I can survive in this environment, I'll starve to death."

Damn you, Grand Minister!

Vegeta grumbled inwardly.

What exactly do you mean?

Could it be that you heard me tell you to eat shit?

This is...

If he really heard that, it would be a tragedy.

I don't want to be a tragic Vegeta...

Vegeta's thoughts spiraled for a moment.

"This is indeed a rather complicated problem," Vados sighed.

"Then on your way to see the Grand Minister, just drop me off at a suitable planet," Vegeta suggested.

"Well... to get to the Omni-King's Palace from here, you just need to fly straight up," Vados replied, "Therefore, there are no suitable planets in this vicinity."

Vegeta: "..."

"Please wait here for a moment; I will return quickly after seeing the Grand Minister," Vados said.

"Don't joke around," Vegeta snorted, "Who knows what the Grand Minister wants with you? What if you have to go somewhere very far away for a long time? Am I supposed to just wait here?"

"That is indeed a problem," Vados nodded gently, agreeing that Vegeta had a point.

"Can't you just take me with you?" Vegeta asked.

"I can't. The Grand Minister specifically instructed me to come alone," Vados shook her head.

Vegeta: "..."

It was just telling you to eat shit, wasn't it?

Is it really necessary to have your daughter dump me here?

"How about this? Didn't we just see my sister, Cus? Let me have my sister Cus pick you up and take you to Universe 10, and then I can come get you after I return. How does that sound?" Vados proposed.

"That's a good plan," Vegeta nodded, not objecting.

Going to Universe 10 is fine, too.

Anyway, my main goal is to train with a God of Destruction and an Angel.

It's all the same, isn't it?

Besides, the Universe 10 Angel, Cus, is quite kawaii.

"Then... I'll leave you here, and I'll go see the Grand Minister immediately," Vados replied, "I'll contact my sister Cus on the way and have her come pick you up. Don't wander off; this is the World of Void, and it's very easy to get lost."

"Fine," Vegeta nodded, not objecting.

The Grand Minister must be jealous of my handsome appearance, which is why he refuses to see me.

Vegeta immediately hopped off Vados and hovered there in the space of the World of Void.

"Goodbye," Vados waved, turning into a brilliant streak of light as she sped upward.

On the way, Vados immediately contacted Cus through her staff.

"Vados?" Cus was slightly stunned.

We just parted ways; why are you calling me already?

"Sister Cus, could I ask you for a favor?" Vados said.

"Go ahead," Cus replied.

"The Grand Minister wants to see me. I don't know what it's about, but he told me to come see him alone," Vados explained, "I had Mr. Vegeta with me earlier, so I had no choice but to leave him in the World of Void."
