Following after the God once more, stepping into the light of the doorway, you leave this world behind. Kaguya taught you quite a bit, even if the boy might never know it, and you're thankful for that. Maybe when he's older the two of you can share a drink and things will be all hunky dory.

For now though, you've got a ceremony to finish, and a transformation to earn.

Moving forward you're unable to hold back the grin you've developed, feeling a strong sense of hope for your own future, and the future of the people you've "met" through this little adventure with Whis.

You've learned from them all, now you need to apply your knowledge, and forge your own path.

Unlike Frieza though, you won't be alone on this journey.

Once again in the 'space room' all of the doors that you've grown accustomed to seeing during this little journey have now vanished, leaving only yourself and Whis as the identifiable objects for... forever really.

Concentrating on Whis to prevent yourself from going completely mad, the God has also turned to face you.

"We've now seen all that I would show you for the moment. Heroes, from different worlds and different universes, they've taught you the lessons you needed to learn as well. Now, however, I shall take the teacher position, and answer questions, if you have them." The blue man says as he glances down at you.

"Frieza, Cold, Cooler...each of them had to make a similar choice, didn't they? Is the path of the Beast that which they walk? What is that path? And what of this danger to come after that I may or may not be the last chosen one to face?"

>>42204621
You could always start a patreon with a money/quest system. If I had money to give, I'd pay.

>>42204621
Well, been there for the first one. Sorry that's shit you have to deal with, especially the crack whore bit. Odd question, but what are your thoughts on stuff like animal care or shelters? Might be a good place to apply on the downlow, seem to pay better than the places like where we are.

Gonna start writing the next post

>>42204713
Nah man, that would be milking a really small fanbase for money I don't want. If I start charging you guys for this shit I'd feel dirty.

And all those jew jokes would come back to bite me in the ass.

>>42204761
I love animals too much to see them in a shitty situation like that. It'd break my heart to work at a shelter.

>>42204835
Check and see if there are any longterm care places for pets, so basically mass dogsitting/petsitting. Also on shelters, you work with them, in the right places you can help make sure they find good homes hopefully, or make it a bit better for the animals. Aiming for that right now. Trying for either to get out of janitorial work in retail.

"Earth had a Guardian... a Namekian known as Kami. What happened to Arcosia's Guardian, did we ever have one? What happened to him if we did... did we have our own Dragon Balls at some point? Are the Guardians where those things come from Whis?" You question the god.

Whis sadly shakes his head. "Once, long ago, this planet indeed had a Guardian. Several thousand years ago, he was tasked with protecting the planet from dangers, and from itself should the threats arise. Yet when the time came, and evil showed itself to the Guardian, he lacked the power to combat whatever attacked him, he had become too complacent with the peace the planet experienced."

As he looks off into the vast reaches of space, you can tell that Whis seems to be pained by something. "There's been far too many Guardians that have had the same happen to them. They become too... passive in the protection of their worlds. When the threats arise, and they always do, it's already too late."

Seeing that the subject is getting rather touchy, you decide to bring up something else to ask. "Frieza, Cold, Cooler...each of them had to make a similar choice, didn't they? Is the path of the Beast that which they walk? What is that path? And what of this danger to come after that I may or may not be the last chosen one to face?"

Taking his eyes off of the stars, Whis once again looks back to you. "The Beast, as you call it, was the choice that they made to gain their power. It's the easier choice, the stronger choice, at least in the short term, and also the most dangerous choice." He explains.

Holding up a finger, the man continues "Take yourself for example. While by no means a pure hearted individual, you have the best interests for people at the core of your beliefs. The Beast is weaker within you, than it is in comparison to Frieza, who has always been a cruelhearted and evil litte fellow. The inner power feeds off of who and what you are, it draws strength from within you and brings it to the front so that you can use it."

"And what about the other question, the thing that's coming that I'll have to deal with that I'm chosen to face?" You also ask.

Whis, in a rather disturbing action, looks at you with pity. "There are things even beyond the Gods, Arctus... things that mortals shouldn't know about until the time is right. That time isn't now, simply focus on Frieza for the moment, and all shall be fine. Any more questions?"

Geets will probably understand since this is a highly mysterious ritual that involves delving into one's soul and fighting the darkness within, and possibly other things.

But she'll probably act that way anyway because she knows how to press Arctus' buttons and she'll want something else.

"Is... is there any way to bring someone back from The Beast's influence or control over them?" You hesitantly ask, unsure if you even want to know the answer to this one.

Raising an eyebrow at you in curiosity, Whis replies "No, there isn't. There is influence yes but this was a choice they made Arctus, you can't bring them back from that. Frieza, Cooler, Cold, all of them are monsters, even if they may act the part of someone that isn't one... You must destroy them."

Turning and clanking his staff on the... nothing that the two of you are standing on, Whis begins to walk forward. "I cannot interfere with the mortal realm beyond whatever actions I may take with you on this little journey. Already I've done more than I should have and we aren't even finished, come, we need to make up for lost time."

With nothing else you can do beyond following Whis yet again, you trail after the God, walking through the nothing, towards nothing.

Eventually though, you come across another door, after walking for so long that your brain feels like a jumbled mess, how long had it been again since you started?

This door, it has a carving like the rest, a pair of horns atop a head... your head.

"This is your next step Arctus, one that you'll need to take alone. It's not my place to come along." Whis says as he motions towards the door. "Through that passageway lies your future, whatever it may be."

A small grin shows up as you put your hand on the door and glance back at Whis. "We're sharing a drink at some point when I get out of here, remember that. Got it Whis?"

The god shares a chuckle with you at that and nods "Sure, I can't promise I'll be around when you come back, but, at some point, we'll have that drink Arctus, I look forward to it."

Pushing open the door, you take your first step forward as you speak again. "Look after 'Geta for me will ya? I'll be back in time for dinner, but in case I'm not, don't want her pissed off and wanting to kick my ass afterwards."

Not even waiting for an answer from the God you step through the door, letting yourself be bathed in the light.

You... think you're floating for a while, but you aren't exactly sure for how long, everything feels kinda... fuzzy, for lack of a better term coming to mind. The voice, when you finally hear it, is a blessing, something to break the strange nothingness that you've been surrounded with for who knows how much time.

"Remember Arctus, relying on your friends and loved ones, helping them grow, and depending on them to have your back, that's not a weakness, it's one of the best strengths you can have. Help them grow like you have, strength, skill, even as a person... also learn how to use the freakin Clothes Beam!" The voice of a young girl echoes through your mind.

There are other voices there too, more muffled ones, that you can't quite make out.

I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.

If there are voices that are in your head and they're trying to talk to you, you're kind of unsure if you should be freaking out about this or be interested in it. A healthy mixture of the two is likely the most appropriate response!

"-believe they freakin' roped me into this..." You hear a female voice grumble once you start to properly focus on the voices, this one is kind of familiar to you... Kabuya?

"Hey, lizard, don't be afraid of your feelings all right? We'd have all been screwed back there without Super Saiyan, doubt you can pull off the stuff, but it can't hurt to give it a shot. Also come pick up your nephew at some point." Yup, certainly Kabuya.

Also wait what?

"Hey! You're not like Frieza they told me. Keep that up all right? I've had to put him down way too many times at this point... Cooler too really. Anyways! You need to get stronger yeah? Don't stop training, and make sure you aren't the only strong one around either, that can come back to bite you real fast, just uh, be careful with how you get people to go super saiyan, learned the hard way on that one. Good luck!"

That one was the voice of... a male, Kaguya perhaps? Sounded older than the Kaguya you met though, could be one from the future?

As though you've been holding your eyes shut the entire time, you suddenly open them to see the throne room of Arcosia before you yet again. The dream one, the one where the other you normally is, but... you don't see him on the throne like normal.

It's strange that you haven't seen the other you just yet, but you're confident that if you act patiently, he'll come around. After all, if he's you, then you'll know that you need you, and you'll come to help you out.

Nah fuck it.

"Hey Arctus! Am I around anywhere!?" You call out to the other version of you, hoping to get some kind of answer back from the doppleganger.

Nothing just yet, so you decide to approach the throne that he always uses during your visits. Walking up the stairs like you did back in the real world, being able to sit on the throne while it's still in a good shape and not missing half of it's back is rather comfortable.

Truly a chair fit for a king.

"Aint it though?" The other you says as he leans against the side of the chair and glances down at you with a smirk.

"Nothing else quite like having the chair of a king at your disposal, other than having the queen around that goes with it I suppose. How's that going for ya by the way?" The other you asks after he knocks against the side of the throne with his fist.

"Pretty good, really good I'd say. Kinda hoping she doesn't kill me when this is all over because I have no idea how long I've actually been doing this thing, could be a few days for all I know." You admit with a shrug.

The other Arctus chuckles a bit and nods at that "Fair enough, things are about the same on my end... suppose you could say." Looking around a bit, he seems to look a little happy with something.

"Kinda here for some serious stuff though." You say, getting his attention again on you rather than whatever it was he was focused on. "Went on a whole mutliverse adventure, met some cool people, learned useful things, not even sure if I've gotten to the proper test or whatever at this point."

"Test...?" The other you asks with a tilt of his head, looking slightly confused. "What test are you talking about?"

Space Christ...

"You know, the test, whatever it is I have to do to get my transformation so I can be like you and be powerful enough to stop Frieza! That test, whatever it's supposed to be!" You reply to yourself, sounding just a bit impatient with the whole thing.

It looks like he's got no idea what you're talking about, lovely.

"What the hell is going on here... are you even the real other me? He knows everything I know, so why haven't you?" You question the doppleganger, quickly standing up from the throne and backing away from him.

A soft chuckle escapes from the other Arctus, slow and humourous, but it grows dark and menacing as he looks you over. "Fool fool fool... if only you'd simply sat there and played along, we wouldn't even have to speak about the other one, it could be just you and I, and we could do such glorious things together."

The voice that the other one has changed, it growing much more dark and gravely as he stares you down, the image starting to shift as he grows larger, lankier... wrong.

What was once a form you'd have been proud to call your own has become sickly and corrupted, the pure power that flows off of it is matched only by the evil and sickness that radiates off of the creature.

"Beast, was wondering when I'd get to meet you." The comment rolls off of your tongue rather lazily, despite the fear you can feel facing down a creature like this alone. You have no backup, and this thing is far outclassing you in the power level department.

It barks in laughter in response to what you said, the deep chortle sounding like it's almost wheezing with it's amusement. "See? That's the type of attitude you need to have rather than all of the mushy feelings sort of thing, now why don't you be a good boy and submit... or should I make this fun for myself?"

Or like, shadowy versions of them where they failed at a certain point in time. Because the Arcosian equivalent of Darkness was along for the ride too, and he got so many cool ideas from watching Whis' & Arctus' most excellent adventure, plus he's been preparing notes for his next candidate forever and and he's just really really really excited that he has a player now.

>Not a chance!

and also, can we fight the shadow versions of those >>42209982 who failed against Frieza?

>>42209978
>Not a chance!
Full Power.

>>42209978
>Not a chance!

Vegeta must never meet Babushka

Back in old country this would cause great disturbance.

I need to come up with some space Russians to have fun with

And lewd blue girls

>>42210162
Aren't Gero and his son those to us?

Maybe, might be close enough

"Not a chance in hell! My power is my own, I don't need you to get what I want!" You spit back at The Beast, powering up to your full strength before charging right at the monstrosity.

Thinking quickly on your toes, you try to feint in from a punch into a sweeping kick, yet the creature was ready for you, it's advanced speed allowing it to see what you had intended and react accordingly to dodge out of the way, responding with it's own tail swipe across your face, sending you flying straight into one of pillars holding up the extravagent ceiling.

Yup... you can taste blood already, but you're not gonna lose to this freak of nature of all things... you're destined for something much greater.

"Poor poor Arctus, you've worked so hard yet you're still just a little wealking. You aren't even worth killing just yet... Oh I know! We can let the others handle that for us, won't that be a nice treat?" The Beast laughs yet again at it's own little jokes, it's wheezing laughter really annoying you at this point.

Struggling back up to your feet, you spit out some blood to the side and crack your knuckles, ready for round two. "Like they'd ever work for you, are you an idiot in addition to being ugly?" You ask your foe, kinda hoping you can catch him off guard if he gets angry.

Instead he simply looks amused as he had been so far, snapping it's fingers, three black shadowy oily circles appear on the ground, figures starting to rise up from all of them.

A woman, a boy, and a smaller female.

"Come on Beasty, you can do better than that, I'm stronger than even Kaguya here!" You yell out while droping back into a defensive stance while staring down your three new foes.

That's when Kabuya went Super Saiyan

Fuck.

>SPACE ALCOHOLIC QUEST #26 END

Sorry this was kinda short guys, started later than intended and didn't get as far as I wanted either.

Will try to make up for this on Wednesday or Friday if I can

Consider this a warm up to get back in the swing of things?

>>42210505
It's cool Eail, see you when I see you.

>>42210529
Eh, we're running CoK tomorrow unless something comes up, so see ya then maybe

>>42210505
Oh god. I hope the shadows are mindless. You really don't want those three working as a team.

>>42210505

Thanks for running, Eail. Good run tonight, I thought.

Arctus-Beast sounds like a smarmy motherfucker. He's not even all aristocratic like Frieza, or classy and commanding like Cooler, or even has that sort of bored pompous manner that Cold has. So glad we didn't go down that route.

>>42210560
If they had the full intelligence of their counterparts you actually couldn't win this alone.

Maple would let Kabuya instagib you.

>>42210561
Thanks anon, and yeah, Beast is kind of a smarmy cunt, I feel like it was a good counterbalance to how Arctus is now

>>42210505
Thanks for running boss.

SWQ WHEN???

>>42210505
Hahaha this is gonna be a helluva thing.

Good run, Eail.

>>42210586
Soon, likely going to run it next while compiling notes for this.

>>42210588
Thanks Mom, hope I have your blessing for Maple

>>42210602
Eat your vegetables. Don't cause too big a ruckus. Do that and you'll be fine.

>>42210576
Speaking of Maple, do you have your own idealized version of her Frieza Saga self set up for the fight?

>>42210618
Thanks mom! Get better soon so your leg aint so messed up no more!

>>42210619
Nope, I'm just running with current Maple slightly upscaled.

She's gonna rely on being protected and having her magic do most of the work.

>>42210632
Fancy hats for Arctus! Fancy hats for EVERYONE!

>>42210632
>running with current Maple slightly upscaled
Fuck that, you can do better. We need Frieza-level opponents right now.

>>42210663
No.

>>42210663
Kabuya is a super saiyan right now and Kaguya is Kaguya.

Having Maple as their Support Mage is only gonna make those two stronger.

>>42210688
Eail just said that they're fighting us one on one.

>>42210713
No they ain't. They just don't have their full intelligence.

>>42210662
Hella Fancy

>>42210663
You'll be surprised

>>42210713
When did I say that exactly?

>>42210725
>When did I say that exactly?

>If they had the full intelligence of their counterparts you actually couldn't win this alone.
>Maple would let Kabuya instagib you.

>>42210740
He meant Maple isn't going to go full Tactician on Arctus's ass like she would if she were the real deal.

>>42210740
Yes, that means they aren't going to have the full intelligence that the real Maple, Kabuya, and Kaguya would have.

It does not mean they would fight you 1v1.

It means they aren't going to have hella effective strategies backing them up like the real ones would

>>42210753
Then why is she even here? That's her one strength.

>>42210769
Because fuck you wait and find out.

>>42210760
>Maple
>not having intelligence
Somehow, I'm intimidated at all by her shadow's presence now. You wonder why that could be, Eail?

>>42210769

Just because they don't have optimal strategies to back them up doesn't mean that they won't use good strategies.

Beast-Arctus may be able to alter their PL parameters as well.

>>42210753
>Maple isn't going to go full Tactician
Maple is full Tactician, that's how she keeps up with people.

>>42210808
I know?

>>42210760
Doesn't this Beast have the same pride that Frieza and the other Arcosians have? These shadows would totally fight us one on one.

>>42210833
So there's no point in fighting a shadow Maple if it's not going to do stuff Maple would.

>>42210859
You say that until she Raio-kens and stuns Arctus with a lightning enhanced Izumi Combo.

She may not give orders but she'll still use her abilities.

>>42210880
If she's not giving orders, the only reason for that is that she's fighting us one on one.

>>42210844

Arctus just rejected him. That means that the Beast is in full sadist-mode and is now toying with Arctus, possibly to break Arctus enough so that he'll submit.

Remember, if Arctus dies, then the Beast dies too. But luckily (or unluckily), Arcosians are very difficult to kill.

>>42210933
A sadist would play with it's food before killing it, so one on one.
