"So it's that simple?" Rumsshi asked, startled. He stepped forward, picked up a fry, dipped it in ketchup, and took a bite.
Kusu stepped forward and tried one too.
After tasting how delicious the fries were, the two of them danced around in delight.
Kusu and Rumsshi quickly polished off the entire plate.
Even after finishing, they still wanted more.
Who would've thought that such a simple potato could be turned into something so delicious?
That was truly amazing.
"Can you make anything else?" Rumsshi asked.
"I can also make milk tea with Hextech," Vegeta replied thoughtfully.
"Hextech? What's that?" Rumsshi asked, puzzled.
"Don't worry about the details. I'll make you a cup right now," Vegeta said, taking some ingredients out of his Storage Ring.
Rumsshi had no idea what any of the ingredients were.
"One spoonful of Sanniu evaporated milk..." Vegeta began making the milk tea.
Before long, Vegeta had finished preparing it.
"It's ready. Give it a try." Vegeta poured a cup for each of them.
These two were genuine gods.
Something made with Hextech like this wouldn't affect either of them at all.
And it wasn't just them. Even Vegeta could drink it without any problem.
After all, he already drank Ultra Divine Water like it was alcohol.
This kind of technology was only for the taste.
Of course, Vegeta wouldn't let Bulma drink it.
Bulma was just an ordinary person. If she drank too much and her body mutated, it would be a huge problem.
After drinking the milk tea, Kusu and Rumsshi once again experienced the bliss of its flavor.
How could anything taste this good?
This kid was a genius.
"Kusu..." Rumsshi winked at her.
Kusu gave a slight nod, then walked with Rumsshi to a spot far from Vegeta.
"Kusu, there's something special about this kid. Setting everything else aside, the drink he made—this 'milk tea'—would definitely top the beverage rankings if it were in Universe 10." Rumsshi took another satisfied sip, smacking his lips loudly.
It was just that good.
"Oh my, Rumsshi-sama is right. This is the first time I've ever tasted a drink called milk tea... Its flavor really is unique." Kusu nodded in agreement.
"The fries were pretty good too," Rumsshi continued.
"Yes, they were delicious, especially dipped in ketchup," Kusu agreed.
Rumsshi fell silent and simply looked at Kusu.
"What do you mean, Rumsshi-sama?" Kusu asked.
"Heh heh, I've suddenly decided I don't want to send this kid back to Universe 6." Rumsshi chuckled.
"That... might not be appropriate," Kusu said with a smile.
"What's inappropriate about it?" Rumsshi grinned. "We can just say he died. How does that sound?"
Kusu: "..."
You really were ruthless.
"Contact Vados and tell her that the kid Vegeta talked back to me, so I destroyed him," Rumsshi said with a grin.
"If you put it that way... Vados probably won't come back," Kusu said, suddenly understanding. It did seem like a decent plan.
"How about it? We can train this kid, and while he's training, have him make us some delicious food. Sounds like a good plan, doesn't it?" Rumsshi beamed.
Kusu silently considered whether it was feasible.
"What are you hesitating for?" Rumsshi asked. "I think sending this kid to Champa would be a complete waste."
"Does Rumsshi-sama intend to train Mr. Vegeta to become a God of Destruction?" Kusu asked.
"If he has the talent, there's no reason I couldn't train him to be my successor," Rumsshi replied.
"All right, then. I'll contact Vados and feel out her thoughts first," Kusu said pensively.
"Go ahead." Rumsshi nodded and took another sip of the milk tea. The more he drank, the more he appreciated its unique flavor.
With milk tea this good to drink...
Why should I send this kid Vegeta to that fellow Champa?
I'm going to snatch him away!
I wonder what Champa's expression will be when he finds out.
I bet it'll be priceless.
Rumsshi was so excited that his elephant trunk swayed back and forth.
Kusu took a deep breath, then quietly pointed her Scepter at Vegeta and released a wave of Angel Power.
This Angel Power could conceal Vegeta's ki, keeping Vados from detecting him.
Then Kusu used the Scepter in her hand to contact Vados.
Universe 7.
Outside Galactic Patrol Headquarters.
Vados hadn't left yet. She was watching from a distance as Merus joined the Galactic Patrol.
Vados saw that everything was going smoothly for Merus, and that he had successfully become a Galactic Patrol officer.
A relieved smile appeared on Vados's face.
Now that things were settled with Merus, I should hurry and bring Vegeta back.
"Whoosh!"
Vados transformed into a brilliant, star-like blaze and flew into the sky.
As she flew,
the Scepter in Vados's hand suddenly vibrated.
Vados paused in surprise when she saw that Kusu was calling her.
She immediately answered the video call.
"Big Sister Kusu," Vados said.
"Vados, something's gone wrong... I'm really sorry." Kusu looked deeply apologetic.
"What's wrong, Big Sister Kusu? What happened?" Vados asked.
"Vados, you asked me to bring Mr. Vegeta back, didn't you?" Kusu sighed, pressing a hand to her forehead.
"Yes, I did. What happened? Did you lose him on the way?" Vados asked.
"He isn't lost... It's just that after Mr. Vegeta arrived in the God of Destruction Realm, he talked back to Rumsshi-sama..." Kusu said gravely.
"Talked back? That certainly sounds like him. He's the prince of a planet and its future king. Although his home planet has been destroyed, Mr. Vegeta does like to talk back to people." Vados nodded slightly. "Rumsshi-sama must have been furious."
"Furious is putting it mildly... Rumsshi-sama destroyed him in a fit of rage," Kusu said with a sigh.
Vados: "..."
Vados's eyes widened, and she looked utterly helpless.
She was silent for a full six seconds.
"Destroyed him?" Vados was at a loss for words.
"How regrettable..." Kusu sighed. "I happened to be out at the time. By the time I got back, it was already too late to use time reversal... I'll ask Rumsshi-sama to find a suitable successor in our universe and send him over instead."
