Powerlevel:241,800 Drip Drip Drop. That was all the Konstian King could hear as he sat in the middle of the ruins of the Kashvarr Castle. Sitting before one of the massive alters created by the kashvarr. The King chose this spot knowing the dark energies would mask what he was going to do. Xylo had just let the King know that he was heading to Beppa. Seemed the Saiyans had taken beppa which surprised plato. He didn't think they'd move and from what Shembha told him the saiyans had changed. This queen didn't seem inclined as she had just taken one of the aroscians worlds. He could only assume the worst for a home he had adopted for 4 years. Beppa was like a second home of sorts when he fled konats he had lived on the barren world for 4 years. The Beppan's he found were always a powerful race and being controlled by the aroscians had been a surprise. He supposed if the saiyans wish to pull them under the fold that was fine but he did make his alliance with Xylo. This was an attack on his allies land as he now owned Arosce. He wondered if Beppa was taken before or after Shemha and him talked. Had he been deceived by the majin? Only time would tell but he needed to warn Xylo. Seeing as it was possible He'd be dealing with forces he had not heard or seen he needed to be made aware. Alistair would been enraged if he discovered he was telling Xylo of the secret bargain between Alistair and Vennel but no one needed to know. If Xylo knew to keep his mouth shut everything would work out. The King put two fingers to his head as he tried to Locate Xylo's ki. It was good he knew where he was going as he knew the distance between konats and beppa. It'd make it far easier to judge how much strength he needed to put in order to reach the Namakian lord. The Konstian king sent out his telepathic message to Xylo, "Emperor Xylo i beg you good fortune. I am glad that you are so willing to fight for what is our allies that being beppa but i'd like to suggest a different course of action. Their are an assortment of power warriors you may not be aware of that may or may not be on the side of the saiyans. I don't doubt your strength but they may be aware of your attack on beppa and it may of be foolish to attack the planet at this time." Plato sent the message he hoped Xylo would response and be willing to listen to what he had to say. He didn't know Xylo that well though he supposed the Emperor would not be all that happy that plato was suggesting he didn't attack the empire that had hurt his people. Lord Xylo |

[Thread PL: 286,599 | Emperor's Might (x20P) Active! Current PL: 5,731,980!]
The Fist of Namek tore through the blackness of space with immense speed, its occupants numbered in the hundreds. The loyal soldiers, coming from both the Mazoku Dominion and the former Arcosian Empire, awaited their arrival with anxiety. There was no way to know what awaited them on Beppa. Reports had ceased coming in after Habana trounced the reigning wrestling champion. Perhaps the remaining Arcosian forces had all been extinguished, or those left had simply accepted their fate, and turned to the Solar Empire's side. Regardless of the truth, they would not falter. Beppa would be wrenched from Saiyan hands, and it would be by these fine men and women.
Despite the general unease, the soldiers tried to keep things upbeat. They laughed and joked in the mess hall, teased one another in the sparring quarters, and even discussed some more personal things-- reasons for fighting, grudges they harbored, and people they cared for. There was, despite the danger, an air of excitement.
Xylo sat in his personal quarters, eyes shut tightly, and legs crossed. He was not training or rallying his men. Instead, he was preparing himself. Though he wasn't the biggest fan of meditation, he wouldn't dare dismiss its merits. It helped one stay focused and calm, and the quiet let him think.
He thought about quite a few things, though the most prevalent was his trip to Beppa. He wondered what opposition he would face, if any. There was a chance Queen Habana had other plans in store, and that Beppa was merely a lure to get Xylo away from something more important. It was merely a passing thought in the Mazoku Lord's head, but it was a possibility. The Queen was cunning, or at least lucky, seeing as she was able to defeat someone leagues above her strength on Namek. Part of him wanted to turn back and lock down what he'd already attained, but there was too much riding on this. If he couldn't take Beppa back, then surely the Arcosians and anyone else following Xylo's warpath would begin to question his strength.
Before he could dwell on the issue any longer, his mind was probed by an outside source. The King of Konats, Plato, had reached out to him, his voice filled with worry as he spoke quickly. It seemed he was worried about the assault on Beppa. Whether it was a ploy devised by Alaistair, or sincere concern from the King, Xylo was unsure. Regardless, he would hear out his potential ally.
"Powerful Warriors? I'm aware of many, but unless you're speaking of some secret squadron of Super Saiyans, I doubt our assault on Beppa will fail." |

"Yes there are many powerful warriors but there may be some you are not aware of. I know you are aware of the new queen and her commander Shemha as they were on Namak i am going to assume. However, they may have someone that can reach the next level like the boy Etoru and the queen. I don't doubt your strength but you alone cannot hope to defeat a group of super Saiyans who have gone beyond the level of a super saiyan. I speak of Vennel the former queen of the Saiyan race. I made no mention of her earlier as she and Alistair had some dealing going on. Alistair got her to retake Konats with us. I didn't need her help of course but Alistair seemed to be looking for someone to replace you i suppose. After the entire Demon all his major allies he has had have now surpassed him. I, Vennel, you and Kizuki are all stronger then him at least i can assume. This Vennel has bad skill she was able to defeat an Android known as Cipher and at the time she was able to power up and use the super saiyan while in her great ape form. She also has other allies a majin named Kaza who absorbed Breech. After i killed him of course i considered killing her but concluded i had no interest in fighting Vennel Kizuki and Alistair at once unless i wanted to get blown to bits." Plato paused for a bit to let all it process to Xylo.
"I am not sure on this though i know he is a solider of Alistair at least formally. Kizuki the saiyan warrior, now i am not sure on your relationship with him but it is possible he also may have joined Vennel cause. Now I’ve come with a proposal though. Vennel wishes to become queen. If Habana is killed then there may be a civil war in the Saiyan Empire. I'd also say your assault on beppa is might be something the Saiyans can prepare for. They could have their army already ready but if i could make a suggestion I’d attack a different world. If the Saiyans lose beppa it would not be a big loss. The Beppan i knew them i lived on beppa for 4 years. The people there will fight for you if you pay them, you don't need to rule beppa. While the aroscian want their world back they can take it back after you divide the forces of the Saiyans. If i was going to suggest what be your best course in my eyes I’d attack Kabochan." A gleam filled his eyes. Cushmaw wanted her people back and he could mold her into being the new leader of the Kabocha. Furthermore the Kabocha was a planet of many saiyan loyalists. If the Saiyans lost that world it'd show they had grown weak. Maybe that inspires Vennel to retake the throne. "You could send a small diversion force to beppa but instead attack and conquer the planet of Kabochan. It is closer to Vegeta and would mean a threat to the Saiyans. They would need to take it back and when they send their armies fully at you." He slammed his palm on the ground as he spoke boldly to the Namakians lord, "You can take Vegeta."

The Namekian grit his teeth, eyes opening in disgust at the mention of Alaistair. He sat up as Plato continued to explain, mentioning that this 'Vennel' was able to achieve the Super Oozaru state, and that Kizuki may very well be working with her. It was an unfortunate turn of events, but maybe it could be sorted before he'd be forced to end his former compatriot.
"That damn slimy bastard... Maybe it's for the best, though. Without his dirty dealings I would never have heard those names. I'll have to keep an eye out, it seems..."
Xylo stayed silent, weighing his options as his ship rumbled through space. They were finally leaving Arcosian-protected space, and delving into uncharted territory. It would take a few more days to reach Beppa at this rate, especially with the abundance of space-faring pirates thanks to Arcose's reduced reach.
Plato spoke up once more, suggesting a rather wild plan. Instead of aiming for Beppa, he suggested they take Kabocha, before overextending and taking down Vegeta itself. It was a risky play, but if they pulled it off right, it would give them an immense advantage. The Solar Empire forces sent after them would be cut off from their homeworld, stuck between Mazoku and Arcosian forces in the middle of space. Were Xylo a hungrier man, he would have been all for it.
"As solid of a strategy as that is, it may be too risky. If we fail, or they catch on too quickly, we lose the footing we have, and Arcose will fall completely into the Solar Empire's claws. Besides, leaving the Arcosians and Beppans behind would cause them to lose their trust in us, and they may very well turn their backs."
He turned his eyes to the window in his quarters. Stars danced across the sky, and he sighed. There was more he could have said about the upcoming battle, but his interest shifted to Plato's own intentions. "What will you be doing then, King Plato? Your forces could assist in the war, or at the very least, your own presence could be a valuable asset in defending against any Super Saiyan threats. I can get this done, but with your help, we won't have as many casualties."

"Your right but Alistair the reason they lived. In truth when Vennel came to konats i was going to kill her as i believed she was going to bring death to konats. The saiyans have both done great harm to our people though she seemed at least at the time had no intrist." Plato crossed his arms as he nodded, "Fair point at the same time you were basically locking yourself into a trap but i respect your conviction to your allies and their people." He closed his eyes before opening back up as Xylo asked him to join him in the battle of beppa. "Tempting i do have my grudges with the sse however me alone is not going to change the tides. Furthermore i fear that if i die konats will be plunged into Chaos. Though their is the side i did say i would defend my allies territory. I don't like this saiyan aggression. I have talked to their new commander Shembha about some sort of deal to get the knowledge i desire but i also have a feeling that if she did find anything that would be damaging she'd not revel it to me. She absorbed walker and if she has gained anything from walker is the dishonesty, no offense to your dead "Brother"." Plato said calmly as he thought in his head what he could do. He began to think of way to help xylo without fully committing to battle. The King still had a shaky faith in his abilities. However he had an even more shaky faith in the sse. They had taken beppa but maybe they'd turn on konats eventually. Even if it was not this queen it could be Vennel. Vennel could one day be queen and that could trouble. On the other hand the queen before the current queen prehaps she would attack instead. He had to figure out a value of the potential allies. He was for Xylo's cause but the sse were in his eyes the overall strongest force. He would admit Xylo outstripped many of them but even he and Ourobros could not hope to defeat the whole sse. "I do also have some more info i can give you talking with Kizuki when i told him about this Breech who took my planet and he was an android he was enraged. I believe he may hate androids and the saiyan well..." He paused looking at the roof above him. "They turned a human into a cyborg i believe. On earth i meet a man named Bing who said he had once been evil. Not in the sense of he decided to turncoat. I learned from Breech he tried to control my foe carva so it is possible the sse did this to bing. If you get contact and let Kizuki know about this it is possible he may change back to your side though this is just a hunch, prehaps he will not."

Xylo simply groaned when Plato revealed why Vennel was even alive. It was infuriating, to say the least. It wasn't unexpected, though. Alaistair was never one to make sound decisions.
Plato continued, explaining that he alone could not do much to assist, his fear being that his own death might spell the end for his people. "I understand your reservations, though you're clearly stronger than you give yourself credit if Alaistair hasn't tried stabbing you yet. If you change your mind, then I would appreciate your help on Beppa, or any of the other worlds of Arcose. I hear that Yardrat and the Brenchian Gemini haven't fully come into the fold yet. If you have the time, I wouldn't mind you visiting one of the two as an ambassador of the Dominion." The King of Konats mentioned Shemha briefly, which simply served to anger Xylo. He made no comment, simply deciding to stay quiet in fear of slipping into a tirade about the demonic woman who ate his blood relative.
"Bing... Why does that name sound familiar?... Feh. Doesn't matter." Xylo stood up, pacing the room as he tried to think. The information was helpful, and perhaps it would assist him when he met Kizuki again. The only question was how to use this information. He couldn't simply promise he wouldn't employ Androids or Cyborgs to gain Kizuki's trust; he already had a fair amount of mechanically enhanced mercenaries in his army, and losing them would hurt their forces. If that wasn't what he was to use the information for, then what good was this knowledge? Kizuki already knew the Solar Empire employed Androids; he'd nearly died fighting an SSE-aligned Android on Namek. Perhaps Xylo would figure out something later.
"I suppose it might work, but it's no guarantee. If it comes down to it, then perhaps simply besting him in combat will turn his coat."

"Alistair has not tried to stab me in the back because he is trying to play chess. Trust me when i say i am not happy with him at the moment. He wants to put his faith in this vennel. When i talked to him once he said he wanted peace that was something i could fight for. In a world where justice is not given to monster and we are labelled as such. When i learned Alistair wanted to help vennel i bit my tongue. I am still looking for someone to pass the title of king to konats to in truth. When i lost my throne the first time i realized i had lost everything. I never had much to begin with, i just had a people who saw me as an outcast for a choice i was never allowed to make. It one of the reasons i can talk to you Xylo. We are much alike, outcasts of our people because of choices we could not make. You never choose to be born of the Mazoku and i never choose to be sealed with a demon. We never had that choice but we desired for real change. Instead, we are labelled as the villans. Who gave the right to them to label us as the monster and fiends. We are not the ones who blew up your home, we are not the ones could killed my people, we are not the ones who destroyed the aroscian empire and displaced billions upon billions. The only reason i even wish to not join your side is that i want to find the truth."
"I don't know who ordered to attack my people. Maybe he was some big accident by the sse and they really wanted peace but i don't believe that. I doubt i'll get my answer from Shemha though. I am not stupid, if she finds out there was an attack ordered why would she tell me knowing that will make us foe. If their is nothing how can i trust their word, so i know the only way i'll find the truth is to head to Vegeta or earth. Yet agian i don't trust Alistair he will take konats right from my noise. I bet he'd be use it as a bargain chip. But as i said he wanted peace he told me yet i proposed that we work with you. Naturally this was because he had common goals. Even if he could not be ruler of the universe he could still have some power. Even if you two argued i doubted that he'd see that their could be peace. How could their be peace if the sse rules the universe. We will continue and will claw at their feet. You could bring peace and you could avenge those who fell and were reborn. Yet he refused calling you a traitor and we could not trust you. But he does not get it does he, it not about trust. We can't trust any of us only we had a common goal. Lord Xylo, I want to know the truth from you, other then the incident with the child Etoru, what caused you leave the side of the devil, i want to know everything so i can make a choice. I don't trust Alistair to tell me both sides, he only going to tell his."

"Leave it to Alaistair to put his chips on the side with the flashiest looks. He's got his head in a dreamland if he honestly thinks he's got a better chance leaning on the Solar Empire than he does by giving up his obsession with control and bowing to one of us. If he keeps this up he'll be in for a world of hurt when this is all said and done."
Xylo sighed heavily, leaning on the window of his room. He closed his eyes, listening to Plato explain why he felt he could trust Xylo. While it was true they had similar origin, one couldn't help but wonder if the King of Konats was just using his past as a token to help him get closer to the Mazoku. Maybe he was on Alaistair's side in all of this, and was looking to gain as much information about Xylo's goals as he could before turning to Habana and giving up all he knew in exchange for protection. If that were the truth, then there would be more than hell to pay for the Konatsian.
"Very well then. Why don't you go and find your truth? Pressure the Queen, or Shemha. Get what you need to know out of them, and when you do, let me know."
Plato continued speaking, turning the conversation over to Xylo's side of the story. He wanted to know the full details-- why did the Mazoku abandon Alaistair? The answer was simple enough, of course, but he never did explain it to many people. Perhaps now was the best time to reveal his reasoning.
"It should be simple enough to tell why I did. He's a devil with the mind of a rotted apple. Whatever sense he used to have is faded. His plans are faulty, his diplomacy stunted, and his decision-making in tense scenarios is pitiful. He strives for galactic peace, yet his goal is to ally with the main source of death and displacement in the universe." The Namekian paused, chuckling to himself before continuing. "He originally planned to overthrow the Queen, you know. A shame he didn't go through with it; would have loved to see his head on a spike."
"I worked with that man for over a year. Died alongside him because of his lackluster skills in combat. The only thing he's got going for him is his ability to run a bar, and even that is flimsy at the best of times. I should have left him behind a lot sooner, but I suppose I was hopeful that he would shape up."

Plato paused eating up what Xylo had to say. A lot of what he said he agreed with. The Devil could be at the center of power right now if he had been smart about it. He laughed slightly, "Its funny really he could have you, me, Kizuki, Zerori all together for his plan. That sounds like a a force that could blow back the sse. Yet he wasted his chance for greatness by not taking a back seat. I'll admit i do agree with alot of what you said though i would say he was smart. After you left his side he been going down a spiral. I think he could be redeemed and a good asset to you but only if he is trained to know his place. He still thinks himself as some great powerful being. His time has passed he can still be a useful man though. He may be faulty but he still a strong warrior. Of course i find him to be too ignoret with power. I sat down with him and Kizuki once and i suggested we join you cause we had a common foe, even if we left eventually we of least gotten rid of someone we all hate. He refused despite the chance for peace simply put he does want peace. He just wants to cover up the sad creature he is."
Plato closed his eyes for a moment taking in a couple breaths, "Anyhow i plan to talk to them and find the truth. If it is indeed true they stage an attack then i know who i'm finding and killing. I'll give you the fair warning if i find the sse sent an attack, the former queen is mine. I will find and kill Zucetta." Their was a huge boost in confident in his voice, Perhaps he was holding a secret or maybe he was just foolish. Regardless he began to speak agian, "And if it is false which i doubt then i plan to stay neutral. I have no quarl with you and i am not stupid enough to side with the sse don't worry about that. I won't try and betray you xylo if i was you would of known. Trust me you would of known by now. There would be a blade in your back and your head rolling on the floor. I have a sense of honor you helped me in hell break my limits to come back as strong as i have. You are partially responsible for me ability to save my people."

"Zucceta, eh? Sounds like a tall order. If you go after her, let me know. I wouldn't mind taking a shot at the woman who turned Arcose into a husk with a single seed. Maybe she has some gardening tips to share."
Xylo chuckled at Plato's next words. It was a strange way to word his alliance, and stating that he would have already stabbed Xylo in the back if he wanted to might have sounded like a thread, but the Namekian would let it slide. "You have a strange way with words. You know that, right?"
"Now, is there anything else you wish to tell me? I've got a lot of planning to do with what you've told me already, so if there's anything else make it quick."

"Tall Order prehaps but i have an idea of how to beat her. it a hunch but i'm prepared to do what i think is right. However you should be focused on helping your empire. If the times comes i fight the queen i'll give you a holler however." He nodded as Xylo, "Yes i do have a strange way of wording myself but when you have education that only went through what be considered on earth Second grade, you really don't have the highest base to draw on. My life experiences where i truly began to learn anything only true started after i left my home." He nodded to Xylo as he got to his feet, "No that will be all Xylo i think we have covered everything." Plato formed a cup of wine in his hands raising it to his mouth as he spoke a few last words before he'd leave the telepathic call, "May you drown in victory Lord Xylo." He stopped his telepathic link as he sat their drinking the wine. It tasted bitter but it would do. The King needed to head to Vegeta. He had to finally make a choice and their was no more time to wait. He could not stall and find out which side would win. He had to choose would he join the Demon lord or join the sse in this war. He knew one thing from all of this, no matter what side he picked he was not going to be pleasing anyone. He still have a hole, a chance to gain vengeance but lose a chance of gaining great power or the chance to take vengeance but if they lost Konats would be destroyed. He had no doubt about that. The King strided through the ruins. "No matter the outcome i won't bend." He said calmly to himself as he left the castle to return to his actually castle.
