It wasn't long after the battle with Berneal Jarvis had returned to his ship pulling it closer to orbit high in the atmosphere and out above the sea far out of sight. But also to change his armor to his more favored set. The golden armor and carved special set he gained from the world of Makaii. There had been a few moments likely hinting at this. Emi perhaps or should have let it be known a hour or so ahead of time Jarvis and his entourage were on their way. Several days prior he was likely sensed as well or at least some of his people once they'd made their arrival on the blue gem in meeting. He'd met and even combated with Bern before coming here for the more formal meet.
But now was finally the time. Emi would be waiting at the door of the palace a calm but unsure expression but almost emotionless upon her face. Her body clothed in her original uniform and coverings. The official clothing she was given to be able to be moved agile in and well in combat. She stood there in waiting hopefully by this time with Atsuko and Ayami already at her side. Jarvis had checked his radar and had a pretty good idea where Berneal was. If he wasn't represent. He'd hoped when he next saw the boy he'd have good news. Thanks to the little treasure Berneal had on him it was easy to find him anywhere even if his power was suppressed. A carefully thought out investment. But this was something to consider for another time. It wasn't but a few moments after they'd been sensed Jarvis moved in with a might speed his power a permanent natural aura within him. Freely felt to all those that could sense it. Something else stirring within his energy as well. His boots clacking down hard upon the tiles hard as he stood tall all six feet of himself standing before them. His golden armor truly a sight to behold.
Chuckling a bit as he'd stand tall opening his arms wide to whoever had already been there ready to greet him. Standing like the triumphant king returning to a old friends and allies. At his hip a fine scabbard but no blade within it. Durendal as seen before paying the lookout a small visit not long ago standing at Jarvis's side. Unusually close after it landed itself. Standing near like a young child to its parent or protector. Looking at Jarvis with bright eyes then back to whoever was waiting for them waving its hand in childish and kind greetings.
Maraca as well as Maya landing behind Jarvis three or four feet behind him. As if taking a formation to stand far enough back to show place but close enough to show importance. Kaiyou herself was here as well. Being carried upon Maya's back and let down after a moment to walk up closer to Jarvis. Standing next to the man just as Durendal did in a more relaxed fashion smiling at her Caesar and rubing a finger along the shoulder of his armor giggling just as the young Durendal did. Before turning to anyone waiting for them and waving pleasently enough to greet them.
Maya and Maraca seeming to stand more at a attention though a little further behind. The Brenchian female and Demon Namekian seeming to wait for the right moment to make any greeting themselves. Maya more calm and just moving at the will of her master. Maraca a bit more nervous preferring to be away from this place and nowhere near wanting to actually being standing upon its tiles like he was now.
The whole display was rather a unique one. Jarvis clad in gold Armor. Maraca his warrior pants behind him and his bare ch est revealed. A demon warrior Namekian once known among his people and now known within the cerulean empire. A grand general and tactician of troop movements. Maya the Brenchian who was a champion of the Arena and trainer of royal guards and the most elite of the soldiers and forces. Dressed in her dark assassin like clothing. Seeming to be the agile fighter and although standing firmly at attention. She seemed easily able to break off and attack at a moments noticed if she desired too.
Kaiyou the gentle spirit dressed in more of a sweater like dress. Her metal claw like hands waving at the people who would have greeted them. Like the pale kind demon. Not something people would normally expect from a demon as gentle and kind as she was. Her horn making her look a tad menacing but once you looked upon her face one knew she would be better suited to be your friend and to love you then harm you.
An finally little Durendal. Standing at Jarvis's side like the adoring child. Seeming to look with astonishment and admiration when it looked at the caesar. As well as it seemed to show a kind warm gentle smile to the people before them eager to please and give kind greetings to all upon the lookout once more.
Jarvis's arms wide as he stood strong and Maraca and Maya bowed be hind him kneeling down to one knees. Emi in front of him doing the same. Kaiyou and Durendal just standing their waving and smiling a little cutely for the display. "Finally! I've finally returned to this place and my 'dear' friends. Forgive my lateness... I had things to attend to. But always a pleasure it is to be here again!" He'd say lowering his arms slowly smirking feeling his heart racing. So eager to see this meeting play out.

Ayami stood there right beside Atsuko as Jarvis and all the others with him approached, she felt...Confused to be honest, she didn't personally know Jarvis, or any of those people honestly. She assumed it was a very important meeting from the way they all stood properly however, and especially the way Jarvis wore regal armor, she could only assume he was of some great importance, though obviously she couldn't have known he was the Emperor of Blehbarry, formerly Vegeta. For now she just silently watched on. Waiting for someone else to speak up first.
Floating beside her was that blue wisp, Wata, watching them as well, though he had....Other opinions on this whole thing. He didn't particularly trust Mortals as it already was, the way the majority gave off a militaristic air just made him even more weary of their presence. Perhaps it was paranoia, but he expressed his distaste for Maya and Maraca in particular. "My what...Rough looking people you carry behind you. The last time I saw someone with a stature like that, he murdered the human race..." Ayami looked at him, sweating a little. "C'mon, don't be like that, we don't even know them! I'm sure none of them would kill. ... Not without reason, anyway." She rubbed the back of her head, shutting up after that last part as it made it rather awkward.
"...Perhaps, though I have survived for as long as I have on my "baseless" impressions of those I come across. For the sake of diplomacy, I will let both you and the Kami speak in my stead, I am not one to interfere with mortal proceedings, it is not in my nature, and I lack the proper skill for such things anyway." With that Wata silenced, letting anyone else speak up over him. It was rather blunt of him to speak as he did, but he spoke exactly as he saw things, he had grown to be blunt over the centuries of existence, it was only natural he would become weary of newcomers.
Ayami's eyes widened as she saw Emi bow to Jarvis, however, why was she doing that? The Water Elemi didn't really understand it at all, was he really the one she answered to? This "Jarvis" person? "Uhm...This is nice and all, but..." She gave a clearing of her throat before continuing. "What have all of you come here for? Is there anything we can help you with? I mean, we let Emi stay with us, I guess we could accommodate a few more, if that's what you want. But I guess I'd want to let Atsuko speak up about that subject, it's not my home to call shots like that." After saying that, she'd just let everyone else speak as she fell silent, though she did look over to Kaiyou and give a wave right back, smiling in her usual bright fashion as she seemed to accept Kaiyou's friendliness, her own being given right back.
[Thread PL: 315,822 base. 8,211,372 in Super Saiyan 2. Using the Lookout with it's Mansion Bonus!]
The Albino Saiyan was in meditation in the Throne Room. But her eyes had shot open, and her body covered in a cold sweat. The Knight was practically gasping for air; she felt it. An unreal power on that same planet Komatsu was on... That was definitely Nasu, and he just entered the Super Saiyan Two form, but at a very terrible cost. That darkness was unmistakable; that was definitely what the Kais had warned her about. Nasu succumbed to the dark just like the Saiyan Prince had once done. Even more than that, however... The source of all that darkness.
It was right here on Earth! The Knight could easily pinpoint the location of the Demon responsible. Though she had no idea to the person's identity, they were definitely a Demon. They had a very distinct aura about them. Even as far apart as they were, she could tell that much... But finally, there was another energy signature that had caught her attention. Jarvis had arrived, and while his power was very familiar, she could feel... Something off about it, very off in fact. Almost as if it felt tainted by similar energies. The Saiyan took a moment to recollect herself.
He had an unreal power now... And a lot of people were accompanying him, all of varying levels of power. Atsuko had no idea what to expect when she stepped out of the Palace, so she had to be ready. The Knight stands from her Throne, and then begins to ascend into Super Saiyan Two. Her yell very clear; and the surge of power doubly so. One thing was definitely for certain; her power now dwarfed everyone that had come to the Timeless Lookout, even if they somehow combined into one being. The Albino Saiyan needed to play her cards carefully now...
Losing control of herself would have been very easy. The Saiyan proceeds to step outside of the Palace, taking in everyone around her. Quite a number of interesting people Jarvis had accumulated... And then of course, there was the Caesar himself. Clad in golden armor, and a distinctly corrupt air about him now. He was never exactly a Saint before, but the difference was very clear to see. The Lookout had fallen silent, save for Atsuko's surging golden aura, and the electricity that arced around her. The Knight looked so serious in this form... She couldn't help it.
Despite all of her power and effort, she still couldn't control the form perfectly, but it was the only way to be sure that any offensive actions would be deterred. "The way you say 'dear' when referring to us as friends... You speak as if you'd be just as willing to plant a knife in our backs.", the Saiyan spoke with a glare directed at the Caesar. "I'm also aware of that corruption coursing through your veins now... And I have a pretty good idea of who caused it, too. They're right here on Earth right now.", the Knight added.
"So why have you come here? I don't think you came for a pleasant chat, or for my help in particular... It almost looks like you've brought an army, in fact.", the Albino Saiyan observed. Her eyes stopping upon Maya and Maraca in particular. However, her gaze was not held for long, as her attention was soon back on Jarvis. He was the most threatening one here. The others weren't all that dangerous. It was clear enough that he didn't come here for a fight, or at least, not intending to start one. She couldn't tell what he wanted actually.
But the Knight knew she couldn't afford the risk of looking weak now. Atsuko needed a power far greater than what everyone else could currently manage, and that meant she needed to master the Super Saiyan Two form... Especially now that Nasu had ascended with a similar corrupt power. There were many things she needed to do. Of course, it likely made her come off as overly paranoid. And there was some truth to this, it was a downside to the flawed form she was currently in. Still, paranoid or not... That didn't mean there weren't dark things planned for the Universe.
Earth had become something of a centerfold as well. It was her job as Guardian to ensure that it remained safe. "Well. Despite the militaristic air that you and yours give off, you haven't seem to come here to start a war. However, I would recommend drinking the Sacred Holy Water, Jarvis. I don't know what happened to you, but it wasn't good.", the Knight finally states. Not all of her clarity and compassion was lost, despite the nearly blinding rage that the form gave her. Often when she wasn't fighting, she could still converse with her allies and close friends...
Hell, even during a fight she could manage that. But it did become more difficult to tell them apart. And the more she tried to suppress her rage, the more her ascended form fluctuated back down to the inferior first. In any case, Atsuko had now fallen silent. Only her aura and electricity serving as any noise on the Lookout currently. Her power must have been overwhelming for practically everyone there to deal with... And she wasn't suppressing any of it in the slightest; this was her true power. True, showing one's hand like this could be risky.
But it could also warn her foes against trying anything they might very well regret. Now the question was, was Jarvis one of those foes? She could never really tell with him... And now that he had a dark power not unlike what she felt earlier, it was even more difficult to read him. Excalibur had opted not to make herself known for now, she would need to save her sudden appearance in order to get Atsuko back under control in the worst case scenario. Hopefully, that wouldn't happen. But if it did, they were ready for that...
Not so much everyone else, however.
WC: 1,007 ____________ Galaxy Sense [ST-3] used to pick up on Nasu's ascension into Super Saiyan 2 and Majin Marking, as well as detecting Nakiya on Earth. Then working off of those readings.
He was about to answer Ayami directly with a smirk on his face when he felt Atsuko's power rise in the greeting. That surge of energy that ran a shiver down his spine as if lightning had struck him directly. Such power he knew that more then doubled his own. He could see it! He could finally see IT! The power of the mythical super saiyan two. Even if super saiyans had been seen often here and there in recent generation. Only once before in the recent generation in centuries had a higher form of plain super saiyans been seen. Beyond history books once again this was the first time to see such a sight in person. He was taken back in awe looking at her with wide aqua eyes. An a smile as he looked on with adoring eyes in a way that made it almost seem she was a object to be owned. Or a treasure he suddenly desired to be within his treasury. The battle with Berneal ended so prematurely he couldn't help but feel himself shiver in his armor. Even if his body remained still to the eyes of those looking upon. Resisting the urge to rush her right here and now. A battle to truly sate his growing hunger. He wanted to devour her or in turn be devoured in passionate battle that would leave the planet scarred in their wake.
Although... Durendal had more loyalties then it let on. Its link with Jarvis's mind reeling back his anxious nature at the moment. The connection allowing Durendal to when needed inflict its own calm in Jarvis's mind. Working in sorts as a balancing center piece. Jarvis only aware of this part of the time. But it did help pull back the heavy desire to engage in battle with the guardian of earth. His gaze still suggesting he wanted her in both battle and carnal desires. Even if he'd resist one of those temptations.
He laughed at her first response. His men behind him still kneeling as Durendal and Kaiyou simply fell silent and shuttered a little. "I prefer to put a blade in the front of my enemies. Its not as fun without seeing that defeated look in their eyes! But you? You I would have to say I love that fire in your eyes too much to want to put that out." Licking his lips briefly and placing a hand on his chin looking Atsuko from top to bottom and sensing her energy and letting off a long drawn out whistle. The kind that seemed to linger in the air for several moments. "My you have grown quite allot since the last time we were together. I mean by the dead kai's! You really are a deadly bastard now aren't you? I can see why Berneal wants you as he does. You would rock the bed sheets like a god!" His eyes clearly fixated on her hips briefly. "Anyway I can get a set of that armor? I think my wife could pull off that look... Well... a little more revealed style but she could make it work." Chuckling in a jesting nature. Maraca shivering a bit but remaining kneeling behind him. Maya was calm and would die for her Caesar at a moments notice. Maraca was loyal... he just didn't like being in such high tension scenarios so close to the danger that dwarfed his own power.
"Why I came? I came to ask you about this Lanza? I've heard from several people they do come from here. They attacked the second Emi model I have. When it was upon mission arranging other alliances when I made a great many allies for my empire all throughout the galaxy. They challenged one of my emissaries at a critical political moment... So I've come to ensure that such a act doesn't go unanswered. I can't risk rebels of the old saiyan empire thinking they can do similar without worry of punishment. I'm sure you as well can desire some justice for the attacked sister of your current housed ally of mine?" Kaiyou sighed and kept her eyes to Emi who seemed to look up at Jarvis with a shocked expression. "Is she?..." Jarvis chuckling to himself. "She's fine... If she wasn't I would have brought more men." Emi sitting up on her knees now rather then proper lowered kneel. She seemed a bit shaken her hand over her mechanical heart. Emi number two was in many ways her perhaps closest thing to family. That or Kaiyou her creator but now was not a time to allow her to run to Ayami or Kaiyou's arms. She just set there feeling a pain in her chest as she drew in a slow breath. Trying to remain truly settled until this ended and she could throw herself within Ayami's comforting grasp.
"So much high tension! Hahaha! I guess you really didn't like me that much though." Shrugging his shoulders. "Its strange though... I was told 'I' was buried near here? I was curious If I could sense it... Mild curiosity I guess." He scowled at the idea of needing this holy water. His eyes narrowing but his smile remaining like a snake upon lips. A smirking serpent who'd wondered in the holy garden. "I come to ask for aid with finding this Lanza given our alliance? An instead you accuse me of having something wrong with me and drinking your concoctions?" His voice cheerful and almost whimsical. He seemed to consider it a joke perhaps or as if he knew things she did not which just made it a joke. "I feel just fine... I am a emperor and Caesar of a large system of intermingling planets and people... I came here to talk to a alliance of mine not be told something is wrong with me! Perhaps I should have waited for the one who actually mourned me to have returned before this meeting... But I suppose that is too late to worry about now." A flash of redness in his eyes. The corruption turning his fear of that thought into a reality even if Bern had tried to convince him otherwise. "I came to ask for a place to stay... I don't enjoy the idea of sleeping on my ship after such a long journey. I desire to stay here... Among those who have made alliance with me. Room and board fitting that of visitors until this business with those that have harmed my empire is settled. But with high powers growing all over the galaxy... I could leave if you want 'all' of my people. but I feel I am a valuable ally to you! No reason we can't let some of this tension die away! After all your power and... knights. An my army and large territories make well allies together. It helps to dissuade people from causing trouble on your planet to know you hold these alliances. Surely my request to simply rest in comfort here isn't to much to ask?" He had seemed to fully dissuade the idea of any form of water consumption. Emi shivered at the idea of leaving as well. She knew full well what he meant. Kaiyou leaned against Caesar though her head resting at his shoulder. Causing him to look towards Emi as her own eyes guided him to hers. Jarvis growling a bit but his shoulders seemed to weaken. The woman leaning on him with her hands on his side looking sorrowful. Jarvis seeming to relax perhaps a little more then one would have expected. Some of his tensed shoulders slumping as he seemed to calm again from his growing excitement.
Kaiyou began to speak looking up at Jarvis... Durendal shaking its head and glaring at her forcing only silence to leave her lips. Jarvis himself looking away from Atsuko and looking back down at Emi and then Ayami. A smirk growing wide from ear to ear. Even with some information hidden in reports... It didn't take a genius to figure out little secrets.

Ayami frowned, crossing her arms. "To knowingly flirt with a woman in a relationship...I wasn't going to judge, but that's just too far." She gasped a little at his next words. "And when you're a married man?! I just...!" Wata spoke up and grabbed her attention. "It is odd that I must be the one to intervene, however, as much as I agree to the distaste of such a thing, perhaps for the sake of diplomacy, it would be best to set aside personal matters. They are...Very powerful. All of them. I am not one to back down like a coward, but I am also not suicidal."
Ayami clenched her fists and gave a sigh before finally nodding. "It's not my call on something like this. Though between all of us, if I were calling the shots, I'd break his legs!" Ayami grinned and giggled a bit, trying to lighten her mood with a bit of humor. Still, as agreed upon, she dropped it from there on, listening to him speak once more. He spoke of this..."Lanza" group, quite an unknown to Ayami. She added her two cents into it with a few simple words in a brief comment to everyone there.
"I don't know what this "Lanza" is, but it sounds disappointing."
Still, the fact that Ayami didn't know of them perhaps tipped off that they had no association with the Z-fighters, or most of Earth's defenders for that matter, they were an unknown to Ayami, and she doubted Emi had ever gotten any information on these "Lanza" people. AS far as she was concerned, Jarvis going after them was a non issue she could ignore without problem. Still, mention of their actions made Ayami raise a brow, it was an odd thing what he just said, she tried to process it, but finally she had to ask.
"There's a second Emi? I thought this pretty girl was the only one." A little bit of subtle flirting on her part aimed at Emi as she mentioned being unaware there was a second. But she gave a nod. "if they attacked her sister, I think they deserve justice, sounds unprovoked, too." She didn't quite like his demeanor, the way he spoke as shady as could be, but she could agree that they deserved some kind of punishment for an attack like that, she wasn't going to stand in his way on that, heck, she'd probably help if it concerned Emi.
She gave Atsuko a pat on the shoulder. "I am one of her knights. Your hesitation makes me think you have an issue with me?" She watched on with curiosity, staying silent for all other affairs, that sounded more like Atsuko's thing to deal with, not something the Water Elemi should trifle in, she was definitely uneasy right now, however, Bernael spoke like this man was his best friend...Why did he seem so sinister? His aura was so dark, so ruined, like he was once more great than the man that stood before them. Worse yet, when he grinned at both Emi and herself, it made Ayami become all the more uneasy. "I...Is there a problem?"
The Knight listens to what Jarvis has to say. He still had that twisted sense of humor, although it seems that it had grown even further twisted by that corruption, and it was becoming a real problem within the Universe at this rate, it was plain to see just why the Kais had warned her about this. "Can't say I've ever felt the same joy out of breaking someone. It feels a hollow victory.", the Knight responds to his comment about seeing the defeated look in their eyes. Though the blue Saiyan didn't linger on that for very long, changing subjects rather swiftly.
He commented on the fact that she had grown quite strong since they last met. Atsuko only gives a small nod in response. "I had my reasons to train with the threat of the Saiyans still at hand. I only recently received word about what happened to Athren from you. It was my assumption that the Saiyan Empire and the Saiyan Alliance would combine forces to overwhelm Earth.", Atsuko explains. "Besides that... I still want to push myself into achieving my maximum potential. I still have a very long way to go, and I don't intend to slow down now."
The Albino Saiyan adds. She then arches a brow at his perverted comments. "If I were to construct a set of armor, it would be meant for battle, not for seduction.", the Knight replies truthfully. Besides all of that, she had more important things to be focused on than constructing something for Jarvis to get his rocks off with. Finally, the blue Saiyan begins to elaborate on just what it was that brought him here in the first place. It definitely wasn't just for a pleasant visit, as she had accurately determined. He was here to deal with some sort of 'Lanza'.
"I know of them. I know where their base is as well, and the frustrating property it holds; obscuring everything inside from being sensed, even Far-Seeing Arts can't be used to one's advantage... They are a... Troubling sort.", the Knight replies. Atsuko had intended to make an example out of them more than a few times, but managed to control herself out of respect to Leena. But if they were getting to the point of causing galactic terrorism and endangering any potential alliances, then they needed to go anyway. That was what the Saiyan concluded.
Jarvis then brings up how he was buried near here, or more so, a curiosity on if that had actually happened. Atsuko gives a nod in response. "Of course. I paid the grave a few visits even despite how much I was training myself, though when I received the news that you were still alive...", the Knight pauses for a moment. "Which was when I went to the Afterlife after being summoned by King Yemma... I didn't have as much reason to go there. Mourning one who isn't fallen at their grave seems a bit misguided, no?", Atsuko explains. Controlling herself in this second form was...
Still incredibly difficult, Excalibur was doing her part to keep the Saiyan in check. In any case, Jarvis really didn't seem to like the idea of having to drink the Sacred Holy Water. But that flash of red in his eyes, it was the clear cut tells of corruption. He needed to drink it. First, the Saiyan merely gives a shrug. "Quite the pair on you, refusing someone that is more than double your power, even with a small army at your back.", the Albino Saiyan would respond. She then lets the silence hang in the air for a moment.
An idea had just popped into her head. "I suppose it's just as well. The Sacred Holy Water would likely kill you. Mortals can scarcely handle the raw power that it gives you. It's potent enough to even bring an end to the mightiest of Kings.", Atsuko continued. "Those that do survive drinking it, well...", the Albino Saiyan then makes a gesture to herself. "They can become godlike. But I understand your hesitation, after all it would most likely be your end. What use would that power be, anyway? You are the Caesar! Ruling over the affairs of mortals."
The Saiyan continued, she was trying a different approach to goad him into drinking the Sacred Holy Water. "But just think... 'The God-King', has a nice ring to it, don't you think? It'd be able to give you that power. But I fully respect your decision, my friend! So, you wanted to stay here with your comrades? We've never accommodated so many on the Timeless Lookout at once, but I believe we can make some room for you and yours.", after leaving her attempts to persuade Jarvis, she would quickly change the subject. Trying to make it seem like it was a one-time deal.
Of course the question was... Would he take the bait? If he inquired about it a bit more, then she would know that she was well on the right track for it. She could even play onto the expectations with Ayami here; she was at nothing more than around 3,000 Power Level when they first met. But now! The Water Elemi held an almost unreal power! If Atsuko wasn't within the Super Saiyan Two form, she might have had a smirk of some sort at the moment... Instead, she merely looked serious.
Which would perhaps make it seem like her lies were actually truth. In the end, she wanted to help her friend. But beating him down and forcing him to drink the Sacred Holy Water was such a nasty way to go about it. It would work far better if he was willing to drink it. Even if she had to pretty it up a bit in order to get him to do so. Time would tell just how effective she had been with her attempts, as she had now fallen silent in order to listen to what Jarvis and his companions would have to say.
Having him as someone she could really trust would be beneficial at this point in time...
He felt a smile curve to his lips for a moment as he heard the young woman and apparent interest of his droid make her remarks. He just kept the smirk as a small reaction eyeing her briefly. He found it humorous but expected to find those that followed the knightly guardian to have bravery to speak so openly. Bravery and stupidity though were often traits that could become hand and hand and one often folded within the other in most major displays of either. Brushing his chin with his hand briefly but it only delighted him to hear her spunky nature to speak against the great Caesars actions and words. Braver then most other races or ruler ships he'd encountered. Most just pleaded or seemed grateful rather then appear apposing in the least against his galactic might and empire that had quite the long reach with its military and political arm.
"Aye! Two of them as a matter of fact. Special designed to grow as you've seen no doubt... Of this I'm sure. AS well as serve good purpose as roaming emissaries. They have several safety protocols as well that makes them perhaps a little easier to move about dangerous areas then those of normal flesh and blood." Emi smiling at Ayami briefly with her mild flirts but seemed to remained in her kneeling. All but Kaiyou and Durendal not rising. Jarvis himself having spoken of the values of mechanical emissaries. The had many secret ways to link minds to pods or several other forms of technology. Even if they were destroyed without being able to make connection it was also possible to use backups from prior reports and up linking to reconstruct for the most part he personality and in a sense being of the droid as well. Making them easily salvageable allies in even the most dangerous of missions. Lowering the risk then if he sent one of his more organic minions.
He chuckled mildly his eyes sharp in their aqua glare as he clicked his tongue once and placed one of his armored hands to his hips. It was hard to tell if he found her comments on his compliments to her armor and other quick retorts as a insult or truly humorous. Perhaps a bit of both as he watched and listened silently with his smirk. A lightly grazed temper while also feeling the interest to engage in such interesting conversation. Jarvis before he'd become the man she now saw before him always enjoyed the battle of words perhaps even more then battling on the field. A clever mind that kept him alive for so long in the galaxy of hunters and bounty hunters. He already knew where Lanza's base was. Enough to locate it but he was curious as well what all Atsuko would have given him. A bit more then he expected.
His eyes and expression though didn't seem to spark like he was hearing anything that surprised him. In fact he just seemed to more and more just focus on her. That exotic power that bordered on arousing him to the idea of a fight. He stood in a relaxed manner golden clad like a extravagant leader. His hand on his hip but the one that hung at his side casually did have a fist clenching tight. Resisting as he clenched his fist tightly trying to burn away mildly at the tension building within his body. "They are quite the problem... Their old ally Leena... She gave me some information when I met with my other alliances. It sounds like proper punishment for them is far long over do then. I personally don't care about them personally or anything... over the top! I just need to make sure people know any attack against my people or my empire... Will result in punishment of the highest authority." He knew what he planned to do. But best not to tease to much and risk any battle. He knew full well in both his old mind and corrupted state... It was often easier to gain forgiveness then it was permission. An in either case when did a Caesar ever need to ask permission anyway.
He just watched her at the mention of the grave. Seeming to chew on the idea but not making any clear indication how he felt about her response. Looking to the ground then back to her eyes as several thoughts burned through his thoughts but all quickly pushed away. Refusing to have his plans and movement of said plans muddled with such pathetic sensations of weakness. His very heart feeling a little pain from both the crippling darkness within him pushing at the emotion of considering the woman possibly mourning him. An the pain itself that perhaps before all the great plans he'd gotten wrapped up in would have desired to embrace her just as Berneal had embraced him. His current mind and spirit unable to bring himself to do as he would have once done. Trapped if not fully lost to this new transformed state he had become.
He scowled under his breath at the remark of power. Over double his own... He moved a few feet close stepping past Emi but none still yet Rising. Durendal as well keeping its distance Kaiyou walking to Emi's side and seeming to whisper to her and pat her shoulder kindly. Emi as well whispering back as the two appeared sisterly or perhaps as if mother to daughter claiming and comforting. But keeping it silent as to not interrupt or risk interfering in the current conversation. Mix feelings among his men however. Maya and Maraca having no idea if the water would truly have any effect. Kaiyou having some suspicion and perhaps wishing he'd take it... to perhaps move the kingdom and her friend... to the one she'd heard of and only seen glints. Seeing his darkness grow far worse so far from his love. Durendal the blade however silent in seething calm. Knowing full well such a drink could cause problems. But he cared for his master just as he did for his duties. This wasn't a subject they could truly intervene in. Just like many great empires... these decisions and acts would be left up to the powers above and great kings and guardians.
His eyes flashed a interesting tiling his head and moving close enough to Atsuko they would be a mere handful of feet apart from each other. A burning red buried somewhere deep within his aqua hues. "Quite... I'm sure we'll be comfortable here for while our business lasts..." He'd say looking her over and drawing in a heavy breath. His senses pulling out towards her energy, her power, even her scent as she became a strange focus of desires and interest. It took everything to bite back wanting to engage her in battle or other ideas. Biting his lip as he continued speaking. I've taken in you now many things people said would kill me. Similar things to this... Holy water of yours. An rare intoxicants that would kill any normal man. You seem to make a habit of underestimating me.... Athren underestimated us both in such regards. Perhaps a good example while its always good to give credit where its due when dealing with friend or foe!" He'd hold up his hand as if waving off the others. Maya and Maraca backing off a bit if allowed or showed by any of the allies they'd move away from the excitement and move on to a place of rest for the time. Durendal would just sit with crossed legs on the tile flooring waiting for the master to finish his business. While Kaiyou waves for Emi to come closer with a soft but warm smile next to Emi still kneeling. Perhaps hoping to pull the more innocent and delicate lovelies away from the titans in conversation.
"God king does ring well in the ears. Heh... I've had... endeavors in the past to have some tease such titles already. You intrigue to me to speak so highly of such powers... Is drinking such a water truly such a special feat? Is this part of how you've built such a impressive force?" With the greed and desire molding in his mind in let his aggression fade as the corruption stirred. Some of his eyes and expressions looking as if he was the same man he once was before her. The supposed friend that had tried to fit in here before death had pulled him away. That curved grin that seemed almost as if he had some ace up his sleeve and enjoyed the conversation. Two people with high cards in hidden hands and waiting to pull their aces. For a moment the smile he flashed perhaps sincere. Somewhere in that sickening energy something still warm and himself deep within... Somewhere in the emotion truly pleased to see her again... To be in emotion from thinking he was actually mourned. Even if he couldn't feel it through all that had changed. Somewhere deep within some part of him wanted to feel her embrace and laugh like old fools again with these people. But just as the leaves of spring or snow of winter bury the ground. His twisted energy buried the one who he once was deep within mind. "While me men make themselves comfortable... Shall you show me more around this place? An tell me of your water? We never... We never really got that chance before did we..." A hint of sadness in his voice. But just barely and so minor you might have almost doubted you even heard it or picked up on it. His fingers twitching in his hand that tried to keep in a fist. He figured his people could settle while he had a look around... unable to resist wanting to speak to his lost friend... And learn of this godly water. Both his heart and his corrupted mind desiring to venture further in.

Ayami was impressed to know there were two Emis. She thought Emi herself was one of a kind "You should let me meet your sister sometime~! oooh Emiiii~!!!" She squeeled a little bit, it seems...Taking her mind onto better things eased some of tension, at her core she was a simple girl with very open desires. It was no real surprise to Emi, Wata, and Atsuko, though perhaps a bit of an odd display for Jarvis and his crew. Still, it seems she herself had calmed down...She honestly wanted to reach out and hug Emi, but knew it was a bit improper for the time being. There's a proper time and place for everything!
She listened silently to Jarvis, to his words. She hardly understood this diplomacy stuff, so she just subtly watched Emi for now, occasionally glancing to Jarvis's other troops at his side, curious as to why Kaiyou and Durendal did not bow with respect like the others did, still, she felt the need to ask was pointless, so she remained quiet, she had already been quite loud as it was, any more might jeprodize things more than is needed. So for now, she did indeed keep to herself, wanting badly to speak with Emi more, as they often did.
Still, she became curious when she saw Kaiyou approach Emi, and whisper to her, perhaps even a little bit of jealous...It surprised her, it was definitely a new feeling for the Water Elemi, she was not the jealous type. She was even less one who tended to get angry over it, and while she wasn't angry, no, she still had a burning curiosity as she saw Emi whisper back, she fought back the desire to approach Emi about it, partly due to trying to respect Emi's space, they were so close, but even she understood that it wasn't right to smother the Android girl with love. ... Not that she didn't try, mind you.
Still, she'd just have to inquire later, for now, she had to focus on the matter at hand, they seemed to be settling things now, thankfully. That was more than a relief to her, she had been nervous at first, but it seems she had misunderstood him. She waited until Jarvis had finished speak, then did a short bow towards him, speaking up respectfully. "I am sorry for my behavior a moment ago, your power scales far above mine, admittedly I was a little nervous...I misunderstood your intentions, I promise it will not happen again." She spoke regretfully, he was still intimidating, but Bernael was his friend, so too was Atsuko. He couldn't have been that bad, right? "Bernael has told me a lot about you, you know."
She turned to face Atsuko. "I can show his people around while you speak to him! I can handle that riiiiight~?" She grinned expectantly at Atsuko, waiting for a response she hoped would come positively, it was hard to frown when her smiling face had drawn in so close to Atsuko's own, her aqua eyes glowing under the sunlight.
Jarvis seemed so unafraid of any potential danger to him. It was something that was a little infuriating... Or perhaps, that was just because of her Super Saiyan Two transformation, it's annoying property becoming abundantly clear the longer she was in it. Trying to prevent her mind from being clouded just didn't work very well; but the power it gave her... That made it worth it in the end. She needed a show of power right now, so she would maintain it. And the looks on everyone's faces... None of them wanted to cross her, aside from Jarvis himself, but even he seemed more inclined to talk.
Although, he certainly wasn't the most respectful sort. The way he worded himself, it sounded like he was trying to dangle their alliance over her head, and imply that it would be broken if she didn't march down there right now and deal with the Lanza herself. The Knight lets out a small 'hmph' in response. "I have more important things to take care of. No one in the Lanza is particularly strong, and though that base is troublesome, they aren't being very active.", the Saiyan would begin her response. She was indeed less patient in this form.
"I won't be dealing with them for some time. That dome houses a city, in any case. Dealing with the Lanza would put innocent lives in danger... Given your current state of mind, I'd rather not let you do as you please, either. Deal with their agents however you wish. But their base will be mine to deal with.", the Knight added. She didn't like the idea of him and so many of his people being on her home... Not until he was purified, but short of beating him down here and making him drink the water...
There simply wasn't much that could be done to help the issue. So the Albino Saiyan would let it be, although apparently her bluff was working on him. As he was quite intrigued by the fact that the Sacred Holy Water had a severe downside to it; enough to kill any man. It was truly one of the most frightening assets within Atsuko's hold. She didn't fancy using it, but... Jarvis definitely needed it's curative properties in this case. "Heh... The Sacred Holy Water has claimed many lives. But those that survive are empowered by it.", the Knight would vocally respond.
It was true though, their enemies had a habit out of underestimating them. That was something she was banking on successfully convincing him as well. And then came the jackpot, he asked whether or not the Sacred Holy Water was actually part of how she built such a force. The Albino Saiyan gave a nod. "Ayami drank the water as well, and you can see the effect it has had on her. It's boon seems small at first, but it causes an exponential growth... When I first met her, her power was small, now she's a capable warrior in her own right."
Finally, Jarvis would then agree to accompanying her, and talking about the water in greater detail while his companions would make themselves comfortable. Shortly after, Ayami would ask if she could take the chance to show them around. Atsuko would give a calm nod to her.[/i] "That's fine. It will afford Jarvis and I some privacy as well.", the Knight replied. Still... The fact that he sounded sad didn't escape her notice. Did he really regret not being able to spend more time here on Earth? If that was the case... People here definitely missed him.
So maybe this was the chance to get the old Jarvis back... However, something happened at that moment. Atsuko finally received a telepathic message from Komatsu. So, Nasu was already on his way here... And apparently, he wasn't alone. They were bringing what was practically a small army. Their intention was to ensure a fair duel, and also to be sure that no one died, and Earth wouldn't be destroyed. The Albino Saiyan bared her teeth slightly at that. "Damn... It looks like we'll have to postpone it, Jarvis. There's a threat coming to Earth, I'll need to prepare for it."
The Saiyan would then turn her gaze to Ayami. "I'm granting you and Cambia permission to train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber; you may not have the time to join the battle, but if things go south, both of you will need that power.", the Knight spoke with purpose. "I need to refine this form as fast as I can... Hopefully, I can train myself to become stronger as well.", Atsuko added. There wasn't a lot of time to work with here, but that was sometimes how the cards played out. She would turn her gaze to Jarvis.
"There will likely be some that stay behind on the Timeless Lookout, if you wish to drink the Sacred Holy Water, ask one of them to show you the way... Maybe once we have peace, we'll actually be able to spend time together as friends.", the Saiyan stated to him, and just like that, she was making her way inside the Palace. Her destination? The Pendulum Room. It was a place where one could get a lot of intense training done... It wasn't as effective as the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, but it would work nicely for what she needed. Ayami and Cambia needed to train more than she did, anyway.
It wasn't a long trip, especially due to her ascended state. The Knight would stand in the middle of the rune on the floor, closing her eyes and taking a deep breath... She didn't like going into such a frantic rush like this, but that power that Nasu held was crazy, and she would need every last bit of strength she could muster. Maybe her alliance with Jarvis would prove helpful, too. The Albino Saiyan opens her eyes, and then the Pendulum Room transports her to another location... Her training had begun.
But with it, her departure as well.

The others would spread out making the search brief and quick to locate proper lodging and places to keep a watch for information or anything of value. After all many of them always desired a little kind leverage to gain favor here and there for all the things along the way they may need. A little favor with their lord proved to go a long way. A job well done and loyalty were rewarded well within the cerulean crowned empire.
He was becoming intrigued himself though following along shortly at Atsuko's heels listening to her spin stories as if a spider pulling the fly to its web or the soothsayer pouring honey into ones ear. He'd feel the power as well though that cut off their fun... The blasted ape boy and his band of miscreant mongrels on the prowl again. "Those little vermin... I feel them as well. Annoying little hounds... I would not afford to drink this sacred water without the guardian herself present so it will have to wait... I have something else I need to see to... Given if that's who I think it is things are going to get rather dangerous fast.... I'll have to be careful. I don't think this one likes me much and he doesn't seem to come with large force from the feels of it to be friendly alone." He didn't favor this as his thoughts tore from the water back to the near death he'd experienced back home and the real reason he'd come here to begin with. It appeared these warriors were setting off to train as well while others would meet this 'threat' or whatever that fool had planned. The damn monkey was rushing his plans. His time to play with the guardian as well investigate more this curious water that eluded him either through death or the conundrum of all his recent ventures. Blast them and their vile little worming plans. He'd perhaps return when he had finished his goals. After all he only had more to gain.
He'd make his way to his quarters for the time. But be gone quickly as soon as he got to exchange words with the demon boy. He couldn't risk dawdling with so many threats so near. Or the chance his desires would be so easily opposed by even his alliance allies here. Nay he had to move fast and true. Then perhaps return for deliberation and this sacred whatever or another. Perhaps indulge in drink and conversation as friends in a sense somewhat like she'd suggested. Thinking it would be nice perhaps. After all what could truly go wrong if he gained what he wanted? Would it not only better things....?
[Exit PL Please... sorry for the short post. I hope its not too dreadful.]

Ayami gave a nod. "I'll find your sister and bring her with me. I won't let anything happen to her while you're gone. I swear it." Ayami takes hold of Emi's hand, leading her away from the rest, even despite their objections, she could feel the hurriedness of the situation, how much time they had left, or rather...How little. She'd hurry off to find Cambia, telling her of the situation, of course fighting off any desire Cambia might have had of going off to face Nasu too...Not the easiest task, for sure, but Ayami managed it, just barely, of course. Cambia's child proving key to keeping Cambia somewhere safe.
There was a hint of worry in her mind as she fled, with Cambia and Emi to the timechamber, a fear that perhaps what they came back to would not be so great, that all their peace would be left behind and crushed...She had to make sure she could pick up the pieces, even if it meant falling to whatever this force was. She made a promise to Atsuko now...One she intended to uphold, it was more than a promise, it was an oath...An oath to take up the mantle of protection if no one else could.
