Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

After spending with a week with Towa's side of the family, Karn returned home only for Chaya to run away from home. After speaking with Meloka, Karn decided to let her go and not pursue her. Instead he went into his gravity chamber to work off some of his emotions, only for Cooler to suddenly appear. Karn immediately decked Cooler, then after hearing him out accompanied him to King Cold's planet for a duel to test his newly-restored power. After the fight Karn returned home, learned Chaya took the holocron then learned of King Vegeta's idea for a “Queen of New Salda” tournament. And then Karn was informed, in front of his students that the tournament would be taking place tomorrow. Now, as we rejoin Karn, it is the day of the tournament. Everyone's up and ready, but to your surprise Meloka is actually donning her armor instead of her usual robe.

“That's a rare sight.” you comment as Meloka pulls the stretchy armor over her head, your wife quickly settling it into place before wrapping her golden tail around her waist. “Wearing it for the tournament? Don't tell me you're going to go out there and show the rest of the women how it's done?”
“Don't be ridiculous.” your wife responds flatly to your gentle teasing. “Why would I want to be the Saiyan Queen? I'm already married to the strongest man.”
“Hahaha, fair enough.” you reply, picking up Karn Jr who's looking at Meloka with wide eyes. “Probably don't remember seeing your momma wearing that, do you?”
“Aaaaaah.” Karn Jr retorts, his young, confused face getting a chuckle out of you.

“Woah, cool! I didn't know you had a armor suit too!” Maz says, both he and Kayle looking a bit jealous. “I wanna get some super cool armor.”
“Me too, me too!” Kayle interjects, clearly not wanting to be left out. “I wanna armor up too!”
“We can take you both to the armorer after the tournament. You two still want to watch that right?” you ask, both kids shouting the affirmative. “Very well. What about you Broly? Are you coming along?”
“Yes. King Vegeta asked me to help out as well, making sure no strays hit Caulifla.” he says, hefting his giant stone shield. You notice him holding the sword between his arm and the shield too. Curious.

“Very well. If we're all headed to the same place, let's go.” you say, leading your family forward. You all depart the ship, taking to the air and flying through the air to where you sense King Vegeta's ki coming from. He's further out than the usual arena, no doubt waiting at the one your eldest sons and Chaya had built before their tournament finale.

You lead everyone to the arena, spotting King Vegeta standing alone in the center of the ring. So you drop down, landing beside him along with your wife and kids.

“Good morning, Karn. Meloka. Thanks for being here.” he says, addressing you both before turning to the kids. “Broly, Caulifla. Good to see you both here as well.”
“Thank you.” Broly answers, his reply almost completely silenced by Caulifla's.
“This is gonna be so cool!” she shouts excitedly. “A battle royal sounds like so much fun! Too bad I don't get to fight too.”
“D-Did... Did you want to compete?” he asks her, seemingly taken aback.
“Yeah! A big brawl with a whole buncha people sounds like it would be fun.” she answers, but then looks down at her hand. “But somebody's gonna get hurt, an' gonna need my help. I even left this off so I wouldn't get pulled away.”

She then shows him her Darkmoon pendant in her hand, Vegeta seeming almost relieved. She then tucks it away into her armor, King Vegeta turning to you.

“Are you ready, General?” he asks you. “Or is there something you need to take care of before this starts?”

Well?

“One thing. I need to ask Raven something.” you tell him, setting Okira down next to her older brother Broly before raising your right hand to your forehead. “I'll be right back.”

Then with a moment's focus teleport yourself to Raven's side with Instant Transmission, the young Guardian looking out towards the sea while hovering over the late Guardian's meditative rock.

“Hey Raven. Everything going well?” you ask, the younger woman not moving nor opening her eyes.
“Good morning, Karn.” she replies. “Going to be a busy day, I feel.”
“Yeah, I've got a feeling this tournament is going to be something else.” you say, then add. “Speaking of-”
“No. I have no intentions of joining myself.” Raven cuts you off flatly. To which you chuckle, the young Guardian opening an eye and raising a brow as she looks up at you.
“I wasn't asking you to participate. But is is about the tournament.” you tell her. “King Vegeta's got me refereeing, which I'm still not quite sure how to do for a free-for-all. But I'm worried about the audience. Several of the competing women are no doubt going to be my students, each of which has serious power. So whoever's spectating is in serious risk of catching a stray.”

“Ah, I see. So you're wondering if there's anything I can do to protect them.” Raven says, closing her eye back as she continues floating. “Well, I can certainly do something for them. I'll be there.”
“Thanks Raven. Appreciate it.” you tell her, then give her a wave. “I'll see you there.”

Then with another thought you teleport once again, returning back to King Vegeta's side. Only to look around and find yourself back on the arena floor, absolutely surrounded by women.

“Well, that was quick.” King Vegeta comments, turning from the three he was talking to back to you. “So, everything okay?”
“Yeah, was just asking her to help out with this.” you tell him, looking over the crowd and recognizing many of the faces here. You see dozens of your own students, Leyas' sister Sarada, and even Meloka's longtime friend Tunnip. There are several powerful women all gathered here, enough so that you're not entirely sure who will win. “They're strong enough that the audience could be in serious trouble, once they take the kid gloves off.”

>>5399820
“Hmm, good idea.” King Vegeta says, you looking out on the gathered crowd. Quite a few women are in the crowd, although they're outnumbered more than three to one. No doubt due to so many hanging around inside the arena. “You ready?”

To be fair, Sarada wouldn't have to do much to win this thanks to her clear superiority in power.
It all really depends on whether or not she can take out Tunnip without too much fuss.

"What all do I need to do as referee?" you ask him, turning around to face your king. "What all will I have to take people out of the competition for? I know landing outside the arena, but what other rules do you have?”
“Deliberately attacking the audience is an automatic disqualification, along with purposefully using any sort of Energy Blade or similar technique designed solely to murder.” King Vegeta tells you. “Energy weapons themselves aren't forbidden, except for bladed ones. And once they're out of the ring and try to get back in, you're to ensure they don't. Any other questions?”

“Nah, that's it. Let's do this.” you reply, ready for this cluster to begin.
“Very well. If you'll follow me.” he says, flying up into the air. You hover behind his right shoulder, your Ascended form dwarfing Vegeta as he addresses the gathered Saiyans. ”Greetings everyone, and welcome to the Queen of New Salda tournament!”

Everyone cheers, the king letting it go on a moment before raising a hand for silence. As he does the entire stadium goes quiet, except for your youngest who you faintly hear call up towards you.

“Today is the day the next Saiyan Queen will be chosen. But, unlike in the past, the selection process will be a bit....Different.” he says, looking around. “Since the strongest woman amongst our race is married to the strongest man, instead of just finding the second strongest I've decided to change the criteria a bit. Whoever wins this tournament will be crowned queen. Now, you may be wondering what difference that makes. But raw power isn't everything when it comes to a fight. Especially in the chaotic fires of war. Today, the queen will be decided in this battle royale! Whoever is declared the winner will have the right to be called the Saiyan Queen, and give birth to our future royalty. But first, the rules.”

He then lays out the free-for-all's ruleset for everyone to hear, then pats you on the shoulder.

“Enforcing the rules today will be our very own General Karn, Lord Freeza's right hand man and my own mentor.” he says, you hearing several people whispering but not loudly enough for you to make out their words. “He will have sole discretion over this melee. If he says you're out, then you are out and there is no point arguing. Do I make myself clear?”
“SIR!” all the women competing salute as one, King Vegeta returning the salute before flying off. You watch as he lands with your family, the Royal Guard's Captain Galick, Nappa, and Turles. You then turn your focus back to your task, raising your right arm up into the air. Here it goes.

“On my signal, you may begin! And good luck to you all.” you declare, then count down before swinging your arm down. “Three, two, one. BEGIN!”

“HAAAAAAAA!!” Sabi, one of your students roars as she immediately transforms into a Super Saiyan while jumping, then unleashing a powerful Explosive Wave. Her golden energy slams into the other competitors, catching many off guard and blasting them away from her. More than a dozen on the edges of the ring are blasted off, slamming into the walls or flying up and narrowly avoiding a ring out before Tunnip dashes through the attack. Her own golden aura blazing, Tunnip kicks Sabi cleanly in the chest, sending the younger Saiyan woman flying backwards and crashing into one of the arena walls. But as you look around and see the ones already disqualified, you realize something:

How are you going to take the disqualified out?

With eight competitors already down, you realize that you're not going to be able to address each and every one individually. So instead, you focus on the battle unfolding itself, watching each one who's sent out of bounds. But almost as soon as the tournament starts, someone tries breaking the rules. One of the women blasted out by Sabi's early attack tries flying back towards the ring instead of heading to the disqualified area by Caulifla. So you dash down, grabbing her firmly by the wrist and stopping her.

“You're out.” you tell her seriously, glaring at the woman. Who at first looked like she wanted to protest her ring out, but after seeing the look on your face gives up with a sigh and nod. You let her go, the woman flying dejectedly over to your daughter as you fly back up over the stage. And the battle has shifted dramatically already. More than a hundred women are still standing on the stage, with perhaps that many more flying around through the air. Attacking or being attacked, pursuing or being pursued, standing and throwing hands or keeping away and using their ki, all sorts of different fighting styles are on display. For several moments the scale of this sudden pitched battle has you completely mesmerized, but then you snap out of it. You're not a spectator today, you have a job to do.

“Is that all you've got?” you hear Tunnip taunting, looking her way to see her using that energy hammer construct of hers to crush Artoa's guard and launch her into the air. But as she does, her back is exposed and Totoma, also in her Super Saiyan form, hits her with a powerful shoulder charge. “Shit!”
“HAAAA!” Kohlra, one of your newer students shouts, firing off a wide-angled energy wave down towards several women fighting at one corner of the stage. Her blast knocks all of them off, sending the nine all crashing to the ground.
“You bitch!” one of them shouts, gathering her energy and trying to fire some sort of energy orb back from the ground. But you're too quick, dashing between them and catching the orb.

“No attacking once you're out.” you tell her, then pitch her attack right back. The angry woman screams out in pain as her own blast consumes her, you not even checking on her as you return your attention to the massive brawl. Two fighters stand out to you so far, wielding strength honestly on a different level than the rest. Tunnip is not going as much on the attack as you thought, only flashing up into a Super Saiyan form when needed and otherwise remaining in her base form. The opposite of Sarada, who's using her Demonic Saiyan power to the fullest.

“Aaaahaahaahaahaahaa! C'mon, won't ANYONE give me a proper challenge?” she taunts, grabbing two women who'd been fighting each other by the backs of their necks, rapping their foreheads together then pitch them one at a time at others fighting not-her. But you quickly notice a trend. The Super Saiyans are, for the most part, not immediately eliminating each other. Instead they're quickly blitzing those who aren't, getting the weaker ones out of the way before they start getting more serious. But there are exceptions, like Sarada. And Kabuya, one of the Super Saiyans you'd first met in the Siege.

“Kabuya Kannon!” she roars, firing a wave of energy at another, noticeably weaker Super Saiyan you don't recognize and blasting her off the stage. But the woman catches herself with a technique vaguely similar to your Barrier, flying out of the energy torrent before she could be disqualified. But instead of pursuing, Kabuya then whirls around at another who'd been going for her tail while she was distracted. She gathers energy into her fist, slamming it into the woman's gut with a cry of “Bear Claw!”

Her energy fires out from her fist like a shotgun blast, sending the woman and three others unfortunate enough to be caught in the blast flying back. At the same time you see Cele, also in her transformed state, actually trying to go for Tunnip. She fires what seem to be some sort of energy rings, Tunnip easily avoiding them with a cartwheel-like flip. But the rings don't stop, striking a couple battling behind her and binding them together.

“Ah-! Hey!” the one shouts, caught completely by surprise.
“What the hell?” the other roars, but no one stops to go after two bound in the middle. The fight drags on, the Super Saiyans eliminating more and more of those who are not while you stop another few who'd been eliminated from retaliating until less than thirty fighters remain in the competition. And you see another of your students, Artoa, cornered by the Super Saiyan Cassa at the edge of the ring.
“Time for you to go.” she says, raising a hand and gathering her energy into it. But you can see the fire in Artoa's eyes from all the way up here, she's not going down without a fight. “See ya! HAAAAA!!”

“Piercing Fist Shot!” Artoa counters, firing off your eldest's projectile version of your Piercing Fist. Which punches straight through the energy wave Cassa fired, catching her completely by surprise and forcing her to leap aside to avoid being impaled. The moment Cassa dodges Artoa turns the attack, slamming it down into the arena floor to avoid accidentally injuring someone else with the potentially-lethal attack. As she does, you can almost feel Cassa's questioning eyes on you, leaving her opponent for a second as she wonders if that counts as overtly lethal.

But did using that technique break the rules?

Non-lethal usage of a lethal technique. If we disqualify that, we might as well disqualify anyone using their hands, since you can choose to snap someone's neck with them. Pointless slippery slopes like these need to be nipped in the bud, or we'll get a bunch of whiners complaining that their opponents use vaguely lethal techniques.

You catch the woman's gaze and shake your head slightly, signaling to her that it's fine. She gives you a small nod before returning her focus back to Artoa, only to see the woman's blitzed past her towards the center of the ring. Where you see Tunnip fighting both Kabuya and Cele.

“C'mon girls, is this all you've got?” Tunnip taunts, ducking Kabuya's heavy right and throwing a heavy left elbow up into her gut that launches the taller woman straight into the air. Just as Cele fires off a pair of energy waves, cutting off Tunnip's movement. “Oh?”
“GOTCHA!” she roars, throwing her hands together and drawing the twin beams in like a reverse wedge. Catching Tunnip in the energy and forcing her back, combining the two energies into one beam and forcing her to the far edge of the stage. But Tunnip plants her feet, aura suddenly exploding up around her as she takes on her Super Saiyan 3 form. As she powers up, the wave no longer seems to affect her at all, letting the woman start walking through the energy back towards the woman.

“Stop showin' off an' fight me!” Sarada shouts, her Ascended Demon aura blazing as she flies in, kicking Tunnip upside the head and sending both flying outside of the energy attack. Cele ends her attack, just in time to take a heavy tackle from Artoa in the back.
“Guh?” Cele calls out, knocked down to the ground in a tumble. She rolls over a few times before getting back to her feet, having turned around to face Artoa. “Oh, it's you. Kinda impressed you're still in this, what with all these Super Saiyans.”
“I'm not giving up.” Artoa declares, taking a defensive stance. “I have to win this one, for my house!”
“Nice resolve.” Cassa says while throwing her in a headlock, having snuck up behind her completely unnoticed. “Too bad you're done. Now, go to sleep.”

You see that she's probably done, looking around at the others still fighting. Sarada and Tunnip are clearly the strongest competitors, knocking each other back with a right fist clash. But then you feel it, a sudden surge of energy from beneath you. Looking back down, you see that surge is coming from Artoa.

“I WON'T LOSE!!” she bellows, golden light exploding out from her as her strength runs wild. She finally transcends her limits, and for the first time becomes a Super Saiyan. “HRRRAAAAAAAAAA!!”
“She did it.” you hear, looking over and seeing the large frame of your student Cenoria flying beside you. “She finally did it.”

For a moment you consider addressing her, telling the gentle woman to stop hiding by you and get down to the fighting, but you've got to focus on the battles that are still going on. Speaking of, including her there are already only a hundred or so contestants left. Artoa, Cassa and Cele are all gathered together, Cenoria's hiding by you while the golden Totoma and Kohlra are fighting back-to-back against a four-woman team of slightly weaker Super Saiyans. Arotte is pushed back to the edge of the stage, trying to defend herself and avoid getting sent out by a pair of slightly weaker, also non-Super Saiyans. Kabuya is going around, picking off the non-Super Saiyans still left while a trio of your students, all non-Super Saiyans are brawling in the air, dangerously close to the ground. The rest you don't recognize right off hand, everyone fighting for their chance to win.

For a moment, you consider telling her that she needs to go down there and prove herself as one of your students. But she's not doing anything against the rules, in fact finding a way to conserve your strength until the end of the fight is a legitimate strategy, and a good one too with many fighters stronger than her present. So, you won't say anything to her about this. Not yet anyways.

“GRRAAAAAA!!” Artoa roars, rushing at Cassa who'd tried choking her out and unleashing a relentless assault. Cassa doesn't try pushing back, instead letting herself get pushed back closer and closer to the edge. Meanwhile, Arotte catches a lucky break, using the Su Ma to twist around the fighter to her left and get clear of the edge. Before the two can reorient on her, she completes the motion with a spinning left roundhouse, kicking the one she'd dodged right out of the ring. Then she takes the one-on-one easily, quickly overpowering her and sending her out as well. But just as she does, another Super Saiyan you don't recognize blitzes her from behind and sends her straight out of the ring too. She did well, but this competition is really showing the difference between even a highly-trained Saiyan and the sheer power of the Super Saiyans.

“HIYAAA!” Lattu shouts, your first student dropping and drop back sweeping a stronger Super Saiyan's ankles with her right, rising up into a powerful left uppercut to her back. The heavy shot winds her, then leaping up fires down a heavy right to her jaw that sends the stronger woman crashing to the dirt.
“Lattu's doing well.” Cenoria notes, then gasps as she sees Ayote and Pasley both knocked out together by Kabuya. “Awww, they did well.”
“That they did. Most of your fellow students are showing their strengths.” you comment, despite most of them being rung out now. But with less than sixty fighters remaining, the majority of those left are Super Saiyans. Only a few noticeable standouts aren't bathed in that golden glow, but they aren't the focus anymore.

“You gonna start taking this seriously yet?” Sarada taunts Tunnip, hands on her hips. “Or are you too scared of having your Super Saiyan Three trumped by my special power?”
“You want Super Saiyan 3 that badly? Alright, but don't blame me if you get hurt! HRRRYAAAAAAAAA!!” Tunnip roars, unleashing her full power and taking on the same form as Meloka. Long, golden hair grows out, flowing down her back as her already impressive powerlevel suddenly quadruples. “Show me what you've got.”

“BRING IT!!” Sarada roars, the two kicking off the ground and slamming into each other with tremendous force. The shock waves from the impact are so powerful several Super Saiyans are blown off the ring, sending Artoa crashing into Cassa and launching them both towards the wall. Cassa fires off a powerful wave straight down, blasting them both up and away from the wall to narrowly avoid a double ring out.
“GRRAAA!” Artoa bellows, grabbing onto Cassa before spinning and trying to pitch her down at the stands. But the more experienced Super Saiyan reverses the throw, instead letting herself get thrown even higher into the air.

“GRRRAAAAAAAA!” Kabuya roars, her powerlevel spiking as her muscles bulk up, taking on the Ultra state as her power grows proportionally. “Kabuya KANNON!!”

She roars while firing out a massive wave of ki at both Sarada and Tunnip, actually knocking them both aside with sheer concussive force. But they both easily recover with a flip, stamping their feet into the arena floor to anchor themselves. Seeing her attack not working she ends it, powering right back down to a normal Super Saiyan to conserve power.

“Tch. There's still that much of a gap?” she says, sounding almost resigned. But then as the two turn towards Kabuya, another pair of Super Saiyans jump the two of them! But, unfortunately for them, THEY are the ones who got ambushed.
“Nice try.” Tunnip says, creating a shield similar to Ace's Super Guard technique and smashing it into the two of them. Sending them both flying back. While Sarada's technique is a bit more dismissive, flaring her aura and simply blasting them back. Proving she's still the strongest fighter in the arena currently. The four recover, sliding to a stop on the arena floor as others aren't fighting those two, the number of active combatants dropping down below forty. And leaving only one non-Super Saiyan left

“Guess it's my turn then. Should I show them my secret?” Cenoria asks, reminding you of the conversation you'd had with her and Caulifla a week ago after the day's training. With her hidden power, something none of the other students know of, she might be able to make a difference. But should she use such a thing here for this? You remember when you'd learned what sort of power she'd been hiding, Caulifla dragging the more than double her size woman up to you after training that day.
“Daddy, guess what!” Cauli'd called, you turning from Meloka to them both. “C'mon, show him!”
“O-Okay.” Cenoria'd said, looking nervous as she'd shouted. “V-Velvet Green!”

"Go give 'em hell, show them that a Super Saiyan isn't all powerful Cenoria." you tell her, your student gulping audibly once before lowering herself down towards the arena. As she does, several fighters notice her.
"What the hell? Hidin' behind Karn, huh?" Sarada taunts her, popping her knuckles. “Finally worked up the courage to get down here an' scrap with the rest of us?”
“Not a bad idea, hiding your powerlevel behind his. No wonder I couldn't sense you up there.” Tunnip says, a far better sport about this than several of the others who grumble audibly. But they don't attack her immediately, Cenoria landing almost directly beneath you while looking a bit nervous. “But why would you come down now? I'd have waited for a buncha the other Super Saiyans to get knocked off first, now you're just collateral damage.”

“Please brace yourselves. I'd hate to seriously hurt any of you.” Cenoria says, then after gathering her resolve declares loudly. “Velvet Green!”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQDab8vT8GU

What looks like an armored humanoid warrior covered in what looks to be green moss suddenly appears beside and a bit behind her, towering over even Cenoria's large frame. It reminds you a bit of King Cold's Stand, from how large and imposing it is. But none of the fighters seem to notice it, their eyes all focused on Cenoria and not her Stand. Which could be bad news for all of them.

“Protect me, Velvet Green.” Cenoria orders, her Stand raising one massive fist and aiming for the arena below. But it seems someone's patience has run out.
“Enough of this. Get off my stage.” Sarada says, blitzing towards her. But her Stand strikes first, burying its fist to the elbow in the arena floor with a crash. Everyone jumps at this, Sarada immediately stopping and backing off as she realizes that something's happening. But it's too late, she's within Velvet Green's range. “Now!”

Sarada never stood a chance, unable to see the vines suddenly shooting up from the ground beneath her. As the first wraps around her ankle she immediately tries to flee, but it's too late. Several more vines leap up from the ground, binding her legs, arms, tail, and even one wrapping around her neck and cutting off her air.

“Gack!” she exclaims as she's choked, then despite her immense power she's dragged down to and then through the arena floor!

“What the hell?”
“Holy shit!”
“Woah!”
“What's going on?!”

You hear several people exclaim, otherwise frozen in fear as the strongest fighter on the stage is buried underneath it. But not for long, the vines coming from Velvet Green retracting back into its hand under ground. Then as she's pulled up into Cenoria's Stand's grip, it tosses her away towards the arena wall.

“HAAA!” Sarada bellows, firing a powerful energy wave straight down and narrowly blasting herself up into the air enough to avoid slamming into the wall, or the people watching on in confusion. As she recovers, coughing and holding her neck while her arms and legs seem almost as if they were sanded where the Stand was grasping her. “Wh-What the hell was that?”
“Karn, explain.” King Vegeta immediately thinks to you. “Was that one of those Stands?”
“Yeah. And hers, Velvet Green, is one of the more powerful ones I've encountered.” you reply, quickly filling him in on her Stand and its powers as everyone looks on. But even from this distance you can see Vegeta thinking, then after a moment follows up with.

“So why wasn't she using this power in the early melee, and instead hiding behind you?” he asks you. “Is it a limited target sort of thing, or is it something else?”
“Something else. It's a rather difficult ability for her to control.” you say, watching as Velvet Green this time stomps both feet down to the knees into the ground, and to everyone's surprise what looks like grass, flowers, and its own moss begin growing out across the arena floor. You say everyone, because even the other fighters seemingly react to it, taking hesitant steps back. “It's like a force of nature, running wild if not checked.”
“So she saved it until later, where there's a lesser chance of it going out of control and killing someone.” King Vegeta replies, almost to himself. “I'll be interested to see how this plays out.”

“That hurt, bitch!” Sarada bellows, blazing her aura up as she charges down again. “This time you're mine! HRRAAAA!!”

Sarada's ki blazes wildly around herself, but once again as she enters Velvet Green's expanding range, the tentacle-like vines shoot up out of the ground once more. But to both your and Cenoria's surprise, the woman dodges them!

“Not gonna get me with the same trick-!” she shouts, only to take a heavy punch straight to the face from the Stand. Stopping Sarada cold in her tracks, knocking her unconscious with the surprise blow. Everyone's silent as she would seemingly run into an invisible wall and drop to the ground, powering back down to her base form.

“N-No way. What the fuck just happened?” Kabuya asks, just as shocked as the other contenders. Who all start exchanging uneasy looks between themselves and stealing glances at the new biggest threat in the arena. Who takes a deep breath, as if trying to psych herself up before shouting.

“Who's next?” she calls defiantly, Velvet Green punching its fists together as the green area of the arena continues growing outwards. It now covers up the holes her Stand had made catching Sarada earlier, the radius only expanding. No doubt expanding her Stand's influence as well. “I-I'm gonna be the one who wins and gets to have King Vegeta's babies!”

Well, you reckon that's ONE way to declare your intentions.

What if we combined IEB with isometric exercise?

You won’t get anything for it, as your muscles can literally quit working once it activates. Good example, I’m sure everyone’s at least seen the Cap holding a helicopter scene. If Karn were in a similar situation, and activated the Immovable Energy Body, he could then relax as the energy holds it everything in place. Same thing with the wall sit for example. Doing the wall sit then activating IEB, you could completely relax and sit on your energy. It wouldn’t aid in the exercise in any way, and would in fact contribute to doing it wrong and/or slacking

>>5401674
Could Karn just manifest his IEB solely under his ass and sit on it like a chair?

>>5401681
Not sure if serious, but will answer as if you are. No, because what would it be connected to? The reason it is the Immovable Energy Body is due to the fact you put more ki outside of you than in, your hardened energy forming a solid carapace around you with the majority of your strength and locking you in place.

>>5401777
It was a joke question, but your answer did actually address the implications of it.
If I'm reading it correctly, it essentially turns us into a big green rock with a squishy Saiyan core. Good to know.
With the Passive Energy Body, Pen for short I guess, does it provide enough resistance to make gravity training in our higher transformations effective again?

>>5401780
Meant to say PEB, not Pen.

>>5401780
That’s one way of looking at it.
No. Best comparison would be like trying to bench press to build muscle using only half of your strength instead of increasing the weights. At any level of increasing it from Energy Body towards Immovable, sure you’re adding resistance but it’s with your OWN energy. Energy you could be using to lift instead. Not a great analogy but I can’t think of a better one right now

>>5401802
Dang...how high can we crank the Gravity Chambers currently?
What can we do to try and maintain gains while focusing on mastery of our transformations?

So since we're obviously going to aim for Ultra Instinct, and Meloka is the most likely candidate for Ultra Ego, I wonder who's going to be our 'Beast'?

>>5401815
ew canon fanfiction

>>5401815
Ultra Instinct is a Divine Technique, so it wouldn't mix with our Legendary energy.
Besides, Berserker God seems like a decent alternative to UI given how Whis reacted to it.

>>5401853
>ew canon fanfiction
That applies to literally everything after GT.

>>5401879

A Berserker God is still a God.

If we had decided to go for Berserker Primal and Berserker Apex then I would agree with you.

So what do you think Karn would name 'Beast' if he knew about it? I think the alt-names for various canon forms is a fun part of this quest.

>>5401900
>A Berserker God is still a God
I'm fairly certain that "God" is only included in the name given how it's a form that can compete with the God's themselves.
Also we haven't even decided on a name for it in-character, so it's technically a placeholder.
My vote is still on "Titan".
>So what do you think Karn would name 'Beast' if he knew about it?
The alternate names really only came about because the canon naming conventions were really fucking goofy.

>>5401913
>The alternate names really only came about because the canon naming conventions were really fucking goofy.

You may be able to learn the technique, but the divine limit-breaking form is out of the question now. Once BoG happens, divine ki is completely out of the question for Karn.

Is Shin aware of how many ancient magical swords Karn's ripped from the ground?

>>5402123
I mean, for the sake of clarity and brevity, the number system worked.
It just did so at the cost of not being particularly cool.
Sidenote, we didn't actually come up with a name for Super Saiyan 3...

>>5402162
No. But it probably won’t end up in a Saiyan’s hands
>>5402169
At least it proves canon Goku could in fact count to three.
No. However, Meloka learned that SS3 is such named from Future Chaya and just kept it for clarity’s sake.

>>5402178
>No. But it probably won’t end up in a Saiyan’s hands
Well who else is he gonna try and train up to fight Buu when things go tits up?
Cold and Frieza won't do it now that Kars let slip that info.
He probably won't let Kars himself try again.
Ubo would more than likely be indisposed at that point.
If not Karn, Meloka, Vegeta, or one of the kids, then who?

>>5402195
Why wouldn't Cold, whose been hunting Babidi and Buu for several lifetimes, and very explicitly wants to annihilate them not train to instantly obliterate the blob now that his curse has been lifted?

>>5402123
>That’s a furthering of Potential Unleashed. Which requires Elder Kai’s release.

Has that actually been confirmed or just highly suspected given Gohan’s previous talk of enhancing his Potential Unleashed state?

>>5402198
Why would he trust Shin after he lied to him for centuries?

>>5402207
Bruh he knows Babidi and Buu both still exist.

>>5402254
I say he might just take matters into his own hands.
With his new lease on life, a potentially busted Stand, several allies that can more than keep up with him, and one of the best information networks in the Galaxy, it wouldn't be entirely unreasonable for Cold to solve things without Shin's help.

>>5402272

Wait I’m dumb, you literally had it in parentheses. Potentially, but you’re in the wrong corner of space to find out

Wait I thought Berserker God was when karn goes berserk 3 and dumps divine energy into it, which is why it's called a god.

>>5402575
iirc GD is making it more then another Super Salan color palette

>>5402575
It is made using the Super Saiyan God ritual, but with a Berserker Saiyan the results are quite different. Noticeably the lack of divine ki.

>>5402717
the differene between being lifted up and cracking though the ceiling atop a routine of broken bodies

>>5402750
Thematically yes, but it’s more complicated than that. The Super Saiyan God ritual is about the five putting their hope and Faith, yes capital F, into that one being and elevating them to another plane by the ritual worship. Creating the new deity. Which is seen better in the show, as Goku recovers from a fatal blow. Why? Because everyone BELIEVES that he can, that he can keep fighting until he wins and saves them all. Whereas the Berserker energy reacts differently. Don’t want to spoil future reveals, but it’ll be good.

And I’m officially out on vacation! Reminder that there will NOT be a continuation of this episode this weekend, it will continue next weekend instead. I’ll hopefully have the continuation of Chilli vs Ainz out sometime Saturday as the intermission.

Y'know, as bad as the Pink Time Thot is, she's a lot more lenient than her predecessor.

Decided to go diving into Heroes lore, and apparently the previous Supreme Kai of Time (her name is Aeos) is a believer in the idea of having One True Timeline and is trying to destroy all the others.

Chronoa at least allows multiple timelines to exist up to a certain point.

Off topic question.

Why does piccolo sleep on magic in canon, after witnessing baby, and Babidi and Majin Buu and goat wizard from comics?

He demonstrates the ability to use magic multiple times in OG Dragonball. Is this just a case of toriyama forgot or something else?

>>5404655
If it ain't big screaming and punching it's for the bad guys to do.

>>5404520
True. But there’s a reason.
>>5404655
>sleep on magic
Kami seemingly had more of the magic in the split, while Piccolo was physically stronger. Then when he re-merged with Kami, he gained not just divine magic but also gained the limitations such comes with.
Plus, without much in the way of instruction, his magical abilities are rather limited. And focuses more on physical strength over magical after seeing Babidi’s lack of ability despite years of magic.
>>5404671
Ha.

>>5404682
Makes sense enough I suppose.

Since you have introduced ainz into the quest, where would you say dark souls magic (like the crystal magic chili uses) stacks up in ygdrasils magic tier system?

Is it possible for casters to learn and of ygdrasils magic, or is that a function of the game system that's now gone?

That’s just one element(albeit a very powerful and versatile one) he’s become adept with after exposure thanks to yhethe Aquamarine Dagger. But only the crystal aspect, he’s not a soul-manipulating sorcerer like Seath, Big Hat Logan, etc. His true power comes from a different source.
As for how it stacks up, perhaps you all will see soon. I do have the upcoming intermission I’m hoping to finish and post while I’m up here, either Saturday or Sunday.
>Is it possible for casters to learn and of ygdrasils magic, or is that a function of the game system that's now gone?
Possibly. Remember, Chilli DOES have an adventurer card with several levels he’s been gaining. But what class would he take? With his stats, coming in as a “level one” adventurer, he could take ANY of them.

QM UPDATE/QUESTIONS

Oh man I needed this. Needed to get away and relax, not worry about anything. Should have the Ainz vs Chilli intermission finished up sometime Saturday evening, probably. If not then it’ll be up Sunday, or Monday evening at the latest.

In the meantime, what are you most excited for? Freeza’s Namek adventure, the Queen of New Salda to be decided, how Chaya’s quest and personal development away from home goes, Ubo’s choice, or perhaps something else?

And while we’re on the topic of questions, how has this arc and the last been for you? I know for me personally the last arc dragged on a bit longer than I intended, as this and the last were all supposed to be one big arc. But that bloat hit hard and I had to split them. One arc shouldn’t be two years of a five year quest, especially not the timeskip arc. Speaking of, are you ready to see all of the kids coming back a bit older? Karn Jr able to talk and train, while Broly, Chaya, and Chilli are old enough as fully-matured Saiyans to potentially have kids of their own?

>>5405543
>what are you most excited for?
I'm ready to see just how Saiyan society acclimates to a lasting peace. I'm also excited to see our Death World idea develop.
On that topic, we'll probably need some veteran fighters stationed on the planet to intervene in potential fatalities, prevent the accidental destruction of the planet, and to make sure that the wildlife isn't eaten into extinction right away.
>Speaking of, are you ready to see all of the kids coming back a bit older?
Yeah. I'm particularly interested in how Tatsu and Tomi will have developed after their first deployment.
>Karn Jr able to talk and train
I kinda want to see how fast he can master SSJ3. He might be the first Saiyan to actually push past it and attain a form that's entirely unheard of. God/Blue and Primal don't count towards that (in my mind) as they're either different transformations in conjunction with Super Saiyan or completely divorced from the Super Saiyan line entirely.
>Broly, Chaya, and Chilli are old enough as fully-matured Saiyans to potentially have kids of their own
I'm deeply worried, yet excited at the same time. I'd say that none of them are ready for everything being a parent entails just yet, but the same could have been said about Karn when Chaya was born.

>>5405790
Slowly. Very slowly. Which could be a good thing
It will have a certainty level. But the whole point is to leave them without backup, without ‘help’ and force them to struggle to survive in the name of growth
It will be interesting, their mission may not go smooth as they hope.
Possibly, should he pursue that path. Or maybe he’ll go Primal, aiming to surpass Future Chaya. His future is exceptionally bright.
If they choose to follow Karn/Meloka’s example of parenting. But as it stands, only Chilli is currently on that path. Having a kid of his own could motivate him, or even change his path entirely.

>>5405934
>But the whole point is to leave them without backup, without ‘help’ and force them to struggle to survive in the name of growth
Yeah, but at the same time the Saiyan race is still trying to bounce back from decades of in-fighting and back to back extermination attempts. I'm not saying we molly-coddle them and only provide the illusion of challenge, but at the same time we need to mitigate the amount fatalities that will inevitably occur.

>>5405946
That’s what I’m saying, or ar least meant to. THEY, meaning the kids sent there won’t know they have support. But they’ll be carefully observed. More in case of one going to break the planet over dying, as that’s more King Vegeta’s worry. They get one planet from Freeza, it immediately getting blown up is the sign of terrible gift-receivership

>>5405934
>But as it stands, only Chilli is currently on that path. Having a kid of his own could motivate him, or even change his path entirely.
We desperately need to talk to Chilli. He's on the cusp of manhood and needs our guidance now more than ever.
>>5405961
>More in case of one going to break the planet over dying, as that’s more King Vegeta’s worry.
Smart as usual, but he should be worried about himself first and foremost. We need to get him to a doctor and really lay down the obvious;
He needs to rest.
>They get one planet from Freeza, it immediately getting blown up is the sign of terrible gift-receivership
Fair. I'm sure Frieza would also like to be able to use the planet to train elite soldiers or test out bio-weapons.
That actually gives me a good idea.
Maybe we could have our Saiyan scientists engineer a few Apex or otherwise aberrant specimens, let them loose on the death world, and give trainees rewards for defeating them.

>>5406000
>and needs our guidance
He needs SOMEONE’s guidance right now, but not Karn’s. He just got hit with a devastating magical attack, and needs to know how to avoid an Instant Death effect.
>He needs to rest.
He’ll rest when his work’s done.
>Apex specimens
Interesting idea. One of Vegeta’s advisors will have noted that idea down now

Right, Jergal needs to jump in lest his new golden boy eats shit.
>He’ll rest when his work’s done.
Wow, it's like I'm talking directly to him. The work is NEVER done Vegeta, but you don't have to go it alone or grind yourself to dust just because of that.
>Interesting idea. One of Vegeta’s advisors will have noted that idea down now
They better have ostentatious pigmentation at the very least. Pic related.

>>5406103
If he could, he would. But Chilli’s seeking another magic expert’s opinion, and ability to research non-linerally to his own timeline.
Yes, I was giving you his answer.
>shiny Gyrados
I know I’m not the only unlucky bastard who discovered shinies exist because of him. Remember farming Raquaza a decade ago for over a week, going after the shiny draw. When I finally had the shiny one spawn on gen3, I had JUST caught it only to have the battery die on me. And that was the end of my shiny hunting

It's okay... kinda.
I got my first shiny around a decade later breeding Tyrogues, eventually evolved him into a Hitmonchan.
He may not ever be competitively viable, but goddamn if I didn't love him anyways.
I should find my 3DS, see if that little ningen is still on there.

At this rate, the intermission will be up this evening. Doing this old school, with only my phone like in the early years of SCQ. Really takes me back.

>>5406464
Neat. I’m sure all mine’s internal batteries have long since died

>>5406749
Have you ever done the math on just how much you've actually written? Like word for word, the whole quest has to be the size of at least one or two novels.

>>5406760
Just in sheer wordage, only quest posts is far more than a novel. An average full post is around 430-460 words each, or two posts in one front and back page of a book.

>>5406798
You might get a kick out of this.

Had a weird dream where divine dragon force berated me because I only ever use it for killing things and never for making the world a better place, and then it morphed into my mother and started berating me for more personal issues, before my dog woke me up.

What does it mean qm.

>>5406804
>morphed into my mother and started berating me for more personal issues
Kinky.

>>5406804
Sounds like your subconscious is telling you to do that work you’re knowingly avoiding. Or that you need to spend more time petting your good boy, one of the two.

-Saiyan Conqueror Quest 182 Intermission-

AGE 750, CRIMSON DEMON VILLAGE OUTSKIRTS

“I had thought you might have been a YGGDRASIL player, one who got their hands on some seriously cool stuff. But it seems I was mistaken.” you say, your disappointment mixing in with relief as you raise your right hand towards him. You were warned that this one was dangerous, personally responsible for the death of one of this world's goddesses even. But for him to fall this easily, just how weak are their so-called deities? “Farewell, Saiyan. Grasp H-!”
“-Dust!” the Saiyan youth finishes, somehow moving through your Time Stop and attacking. Causing you to leap back away from him, losing focus on both the spell you'd been trying to cast as well as your Time Stop.

You are Momonga, now known as Ainz Ooal Gown: Sorcerer King and master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Representing your guild in this new world by using the guild's name, you've spread the name out far and wide in the world in the hopes of finding any of your former guildmates. But instead you found this boy, a young Saiyan who's also adept with magic. Enough so to have garnered the moniker of “Crystal Sage”. And while he's somehow immune to time control effects, you'd at least planned for as much. He may have got you for a moment by halting his cast and freezing in place, waiting for a free shot, but you're not one to go down to a single spell. Especially one that's not even Super-tier magic.

“N-Not a bad ambush.” you say, trying to play off your sudden surprise as you raise your right hand. But then as it comes into sight, you feel your nonexistent heart skip a beat: your hand is turning to dust! His spell, “Dust to Dust”, seems able to destroy your undead body. Even through all of your resistances! Your fingers' first digits are already gone, and half of the second are also as you notice the damage he's doing. You need information, and fast. So, time to play the 'surprised bbeg' role for a bit to get him to talk. “What? This is impossible! No magic this debilitating should be getting through my defenses.”
“This spell can even kill gods, of course it will work on a corpse like you.” he says, you realizing that this “Death Magic” he wields, that book no doubt the source as it radiates that power and a menacing aura like a spotlight warning you that it is trouble to your kind. “Now die afraid.”

“Fear, yes. Fear could work.” you think to yourself, preparing your next few spells. Even if he's a Super Saiyan, there's plenty of ways around just raw power. And fear is an excellent one.

“Fear, ah yes. Let's see how well YOU fare against fear. Silent Spell.” you call, activating you magic that allows for the silent casting of spells. If he knows what you're about to summon, then it defeats the purpose. “Boost Magic: Summon Primal Fear Elemental.”

As your summon completes an amorphous shape, the Primal Fear Elemental, begins stepping into this plane of existence. With the Saiyan boy Chilli as the target, it pierces through any mental defenses to find the target's deepest fear and manifest itself as that. But, to your surprise, it begins taking on the shape of a clown. You're a little let down, you were hoping to see something like Freeza, or maybe even a greater threat lurking in this world you hadn't encountered yet. But a clown?

“N-N-No way. You're dead, I saw you die!” the boy shouts, taking one frightened step back, then another, and another. His voice is full of dread, matching the expression he's making. “My father killed you!”
“Kiddo, kiddo, kiddo. You can't ever KILL me. Not forever.” the clown says, its menacing voice reminding you of that old animated show with the clown fighting the bat guy.
“Lord Ainz? What...IS that?” Albedo asks you, completely at a loss for words as she watches the goofy, yet still somehow absolutely menacing clown walking closer towards him.
“It's in the name. I can't die.” the clown continues, forcing the boy to take a step after unconscious step back. Looks like he doesn't have any items or magic protecting him from terror. “Nothing you or your father can do could ever erase me for good. Now, how about we pick up where we'd left off?”

“It is a fear elemental. A being from another plane of existence.” you explain, then turn back to the monster as it takes another step closer to the boy and continue to speak. “Hmmm, I wasn't expecting a clown. I was expecting Lord Freeza to appear, or perhaps another monster. Not a clown.”
“A clown?” Albedo asks, looking from you to it and back. “What sort of hellish nightmare pit do those crawl from?”
“We're going to have so much FUN together!” the clown says, giggling. The giggle turns into full-blown, maniacal laughter as the creature drinks in his fear. Growing stronger by the second as it saps the boy's will. “And there's no Daddy here to save you this time.”

But these words seem to trigger something in the kid, who unleashes a primal scream into the night sky. As he does, his golden aura turns more angular and vicious, azure sparks dancing through it as you realize he's just ascended to Super Saiyan Two. Just what the hell has this kid been through? He then tosses the staff aside, lowering his head and giving the clown a bone-chilling glare.

“You almost killed me before. But this time I'm ready for you.” the boy says, dropping to a knee as his book suddenly just vanishes. No doubt sent back to whatever pocket dimension he's stored such a powerful artifact in. As he does, he slams his right hand palm down on the ground, creating a patch of crystals about as wide as his torso. What could he be doing? Whatever it is, it can't be good.

“Lord Ainz, look.” Albedo says, you watching as the elemental takes a worried step back as a powerful, completely alien magical energy begins radiating from that pit of crystal. He reaches into it, grabbing one and drawing it up. As he does it takes the shape of a broad-bladed, two-handed sword before the crystals shatter, revealing the weapon's true form once free of the ground. He draws the weapon as he stands, pointing the faintly-glowing, blue blade at the elemental. “What is that?”

“Round two, asshole.” the kid says, sword glowing brighter as he takes it up into both hands and draws it up into a ready stance. “Prepare to die.”
“All Appraisal Magic Item.” you say, casting the highest tier of appraisal to try and identify what sort of weapon could radiate with that much unfamiliar, dangerous magical power. Usually, All Appraisal Magic Item would tell you everything; all abilities, secrets, even things like the item's creator and/or manufacturer. But you don't get the usual deluge of information on this weapon. All you know is that it is called the Moonlight Greatsword, apparently the carved tail bone of a magically-gifted pale, scaleless dragon. And that it can channel the dragon's own magic when swung. “Hmmmm. That's different.”

“My lord?” Albedo asks, but before you can answer the Super Saiyan attacks. He charges forward, swinging the faintly-luminous sword down. He swings through it from the clown's left shoulder and out the right hip, cutting clean through the elemental. However, as he swings, the glowing sword launches a blade of magical energy towards both you and Albedo.
“Wall of Skeleton!” you cast, creating a wall of bones between you and Albedo that immediately rises straight up out of the ground. But his dragon magic cuts straight through the defenses. “Hrmm?!”
“Lord Ainz!” Albedo shouts, but just before the magical blade can hit either of you it dissipates. “Wh-What?”

“I see.” you say, Albedo looking to you curiously. “Back up, Abledo. That attack seems to be limited by range alone. As long as he's focused on attacking the phantom, that shouldn't reach us.”
“Understood, Lord Ainz.” she replies, the two of you stepping back as the bone wall collapses. Revealing both the young Super Saiyan and the fear elemental you'd summoned.

You see that he’s still fighting, but while you weren’t looking he and the elemental switched positions. Now with his back to you, he swings and fires off another azure slash through the elemental. You watch as he then uses the momentum of his swing to twist and flip up and over the clown-seeming phantom, firing a quick pair of back-and-forth slashes down on it. He then lands back on his original side, back facing the clown.

“Gaaah! Y-You’ve gotten better, boy.” the clown-shaped elemental taunts, both turning back to face each other. “But that doesn’t mean you can kill me, even with that old toy.”
“Discern Enemy.” you cast, raising a hand to identify the boy’s levels, stats, and to get a handle on his powers. But as you do, shocking information begins flooding into your mind. You understand just how powerful he is, realizing immediately that you and Albedo aren’t enough. If you had Shalltear, Aura, Mare, Cocytus, and all of the Pleiades present as well, you would perhaps consider duking it out. But with just the two of you? Not a chance in hell. He’s not built like a player, you may as well have walked up to a surprise raid, or maybe even a world event boss. This is BAD. “Albedo, we’re leaving. Gate.”

“Lord Ainz?” she asks, sounding quite surprised as you create a gateway portal directly back to the fake Nazarick, built back during the battles with the lizardfolk tribes. But before you can step through it, you hear the young archwizard roar.
“Crystal Magic Sealer!” Chilli shouts, throwing some sort of crystal spike at the gate. But it’s odd, you can’t actually sense any mafic from it. In fact, the crystal seems entirely devoid of magic somehow. The moment the two spells collide, the gate’s magic is seemingly sucked INTO the crystal! Ending your portal as the crystal falls to the ground, brimming with magic.

“Ah-“ you hear yourself say, sounding worried even to you. Understanding what just happened, you feel even less positive about fighting now. Having a magic negate strong enough to counter such a high-tier spell up his sleeve is dangerous, the boy probably able to counter your most dangerous attacks. This is not a good fight for you, you need your heavy hitters! Knowing you were marching on a village of high-tier spellcasters, you’d left everyone without sufficient defense back in Nazarick or out on their other varied tasks in the Sorcerer Kingdom. Just in case the enemy had laid a devious trap with the power of their ‘Master of Explosions’.

“You’re not going anywhere, filthy undead.” the boy says, you seeing the form of the fear elemental dissolving behind him as he levels his left hand’s index finger at you. Striking a pose quite similar to a certain space tyrant you remember reading in an old manga, telegraphing his next attack. Which is normally something you should avoid, but you’re not sure anything you have CAN stop a Death Beam. “Die.”

“Transposition!” Albedo calls out, activating one of her abilities to swap yours and her places instantly. So instead of that beam striking you in the head, it hits her instead. Shattering her helmet, but leaving her seemingly unharmed. At least, at first.
“Oh? You’re pretty durable. Guess I have to get through you first to take out bones over there.” the Saiyan says, lowering his hand and sighing. “Alright.”
“Lord Ainz, please flee immediately.” Albedo tells you, not taking her eyes off the Saiyan. But you see blood slowly trickling down the side of her face, looks like her helmet didn’t fully protect her. “I shall buy you all the time I can! AEGIS! WALLS OF JERICHO!”

“You’re in my way!” the young Saiyan Chilli roars as Albedo casts her defensive spells, exploding off the ground towards you both. She leaps forward to intercept him, wings flapping once before swinging her transformed Ginnungagap down. He counters her axe-like weapon with the glowing dragon bone sword in a left-to-right horizontal swing, swatting her world item aside. As he does the sword glows brighter, firing another crescent-shaped blade forth directly into Albedo. Who audibly grunts at taking the hit, but doesn’t activate her special ability just yet. “Now DIE!!”

He then releases the weapon with his left, firing a lightning quick punch directly into her unarmored face. He strikes Albedo with enough force to send her flying away into the nearest mountain, but she remains standing. Instead, the outermost layer of her armor, the divine item Hermes Trismegistus crafted by her creator and your friend Tabula, simply and violently explodes.

“Gah!” he cries out as shards of enchanted metal dig into his flesh, the force of her armor exploding knocking the young man back. He lands on his back, rolling with the momentum back to his feet and sliding backwards to a stop a few yards away. As he raises his head, you see several chunks of her armor stuck in his face, one right above his right eye and bleeding down into his eye. “Tch. Nice trick. But let’s see it work on this! Crystal Magic: Paledrake’s Lair!”

The boy then grabs his staff that he’d rolled back to, slamming the head of it down onto the ground and drawing up a large amount of mana. From that point of impact crystals rapidly grow out across the ground in a vaguely circular shape. But also right towards you and Albedo!

“Fly.” you say, casting the simple spell and rising up off the ground as Albedo flaps her wings, also avoiding the spreading crystals. No doubt if they covered you, you’d be in trouble. But something about this spell seems off. Almost as if....
“Heh. Gotcha now.” you see him mouth to himself, rising back up to his feet and looking up at the two of you. You do NOT like how confident he looks right now, nor how the crystals just keep expanding out. “Thanks for not interrupting my setup spell. Had you done so, all this mana would have been wasted and you would have had the upper hand. But it’s over now.”

“What good is covering the ground, when we can fly, you idiot child?” Albedo taunts, drawing her axe back as she prepares to fly towards him again, But as she does, you notice the ground changing. The crystal-covered ground is now swelling with very sharp stalagmites.
“Below you!” you call, warning Albedo before activating your own defenses. “Body of Effulgent Beryl!”
“Dark Magic: Black Hole!!” Chilli then calls, creating a miniature black hole above you and Albedo! Immediately it begins sucking the two of you in, forcing you to fly directly against it’s pull. “Now, die to my Inverted Crystal Hailstorm!”

And as one, the hundreds of crystal stalagmite spears all fire upwards, pulled towards the both of you by the Black Hole’s pull. For a moment you can’t even react, impressed by the boy’s ability to combine his different magics for impressive effect. This trap was quite simple, but elegant and extremely effective. Unfortunately for him, you have the perfect counter.

“Maximize Magic: Magic Destruction!” you call, thrusting your hand at his Black Hole sucking you both in. Green light envelops your body for a moment, the spell consuming a chunk of your mana to completely destroy his attack. Leaving only the crystal spears all flying towards you to deal with.
“Lord Ainz!” Albedo shouts, dashing between you and the approaching spears. “Parry Missile! Counter Arrow!”

Albedo spins her long-handled axe between herself and the approaching spears, deflecting the crystal constructs and knocking them away. However, about one of every five or so glow faintly with her magic, the skill activating and redirecting the spears back down at Chilli instead! But the crystals on the ground suddenly grow to defend him, forming a shielding quarter dome around his body. It doesn’t stop there, quickly forming a whole dome completely shielding his body. For a moment you wonder why he’s switching to defense, but then you see it: dozens of crimson magical circles have appeared around you all at some point! Wait, the Master of Explosions! You’d forgotten about-

Everything vanishes, consumed by a massive magical blast. You recognize it as the 8th tier spell Explosion, but packing far more power than you’ve ever witnessed before. The blast of pure destructive magic rips through your magical defenses, causing you more damage than the entirety of your fight with Shalltear. For a single moment you think that this could be the end, your entire life gone due to one blast, but then it’s over. The attack that could easily be confused with a Super tier spell ends, blinding light fading to reveal its results.

The first thing you notice is that Albedo still seems fine, wearing only the liquid assimilation form of her Hermes Trismegistus. No doubt sacrificing the second layer to the massive blast in order to take no damage herself. But then you notice, scanning the ground for pieces of the armor that the boy’s crystals somehow survived the blast too! Not only that, but the solid sheet of crystal beneath your feet isn’t even cracked from the tremendous blast! The only evidence the attack’d even happened to it is the massive scorch mark the high-tier spell left in its wake.

“His crystals weren’t even affected?” you say, shocked by the revelation. But looking over towards his dome that he shielded himself with, you see something odd. As the smoke blows away, it’s no longer dome-shaped, but instead resembles a dragon’s head. And as you realize this its mouth opens, firing a blast of dragon’s breath at you both! Using your Fly, once more you take off into the air, soaring above the crystal breath. Using her wings Albedo does the same, staying between you and the crystal dragon’s head. But your gaze isn’t on the boy, instead looking up at the crystal tower and see that its still faintly glowing with magical energy. So that’s how they do it. “Interesting. The spire is a conduit for magical energy, allowing her to supercharge the Explosion. Albedo, go sieze the girl. She’ll make an excellent bargaining chip.”

“Yes my lord.” she says, taking off without hesitation. Immediately as she flies over the crystal dragon head, it explodes out from the Saiyan inside’s charge.
“Maximize Magic: Reality Slash!” you call out, throwing one of your strongest offensive spells out between Albedo and Chilli. He sees the attack coming at the last possible second, backing off just in time to avoid being severed in two. Giving Albedo the chance she needs to get clear, gaining distance as she flies directly towards the tower. For a moment Chilli doesn’t move, but when he does, you see he doesn’t look worried at all. In fact, he’s actually smirking at you. Making you wonder if you somehow made a mistake.

“Sending away your meat shield, huh? Her Explosion must have really hurt you.” he says confidently, flying back down to the ground and planting his feet on the magical crystals. “But that was a bad move. Without her to eat hits for you, you’re through.”
“I sent her away for her own safety.” you reply, activating one of your most dangerous skills here in the new world. “Skill: The Goal of All Life is Death!”

Activating your strongest skill, you almost feel bad for the kid. He has no idea what’s about to happen as you raise your left hand, holding it out towards him.

“Grasp Heart.” you say, casting your favorite lethal spell. A holographic image of his heart appears in your hand, you crushing it to a bloody pulp with your skeletal fingers. “It’s over. In twelve seconds, you will die.”

Fear dawns on the boy’s face, the realization he has only seconds to live spurring him into action. He drops the sword, quickly creating two distinct spheres of magical energy. In his left he holds a sphere of absolute darkness, while in his right he holds blinding radiance. Turning his palms towards each other he then thrusts both hands at each other, light and darkness colliding as he shouts.

“Chaos Barrier!”

Light and Dark energies swirl and grow up around him, forming a dome-like shape of warring magical energy. It grows out towards you, forcing you to use the last of your Fly spell’s power to leap back and away as your clock continues counting down. Five seconds, six seconds, seven seconds, then his energy seemingly strikes a balance. The light and darkness merge, transforming his magic into a uniform, almost cloud like misty grey as your skill continues counting down. But whatever defense this is, you’re not letting him escape and use up your strongest ability!

“Maximize Magic: Reality Slash!” you roar, firing off a dimensional-rending slash of magic through the air at him. But as you do, the oddest thing happens. The instant you cast your spell, an identical reality-warping blade fires out from the back of the boy’s defense. Your slash continues forward, slicing into his shield and vanishing as the one from his shield continues as if nothing happened. What the hell is going on?

TICK. TICK. BOOOOONG.

Your skill activates, unleashing the power of your Grasp Heart spell boosted by the ultimate instant death-boosting skill. But as the mana is consumed, nothing happens. His shield remains in place, seemingly unaffected as his ‘Chaos Barrier’ protects him. That’s it, you’re leaving. Now.

“Greater Teleportation.” you say, looking over at the crystal tower you’d sent Albedo to. Teleporting directly above the small fortress, you see Albedo still swinging Ginnungagap at the crystal portcullis. Her weapon has cleaved a few of the bars, but not enough for her to break on through it. “Albedo, we’re leaving. Now.”
“Yes, Lord Ainz.” she says, flying up to you as you fall through the air, holding out your hand. She takes it in your own and before the ground rises up to your feet, again you cast Greater Teleportation. Your teleportation takes the two of you directly to the decoy Nazarick, appearing just before the opening. Yet your work isn’t done.

“Triplet Maximize Magic: Explosive Land Mine. Triplet Maximize Magic: Drifting Master Mine!” you cast, creating six glowing orbs of explosive magical energy around the entrance to the fake guild hall. “There. That should let us know if we are being tracked. But just in case... “Summon Undead Tenth Level: Elemental Skull!”

From the ground just inside the doorway rises a human skull, however it’s far too large to be a person’s. It radiates with a shifting rainbow of lights, Albedo looking curiously to you.

“Lord Ainz, why are you summoning such a powerful creature here?” she asks, you giving the undead orders with a thought before turning back to her.
“To slow our young Saiyan friend down, should he pursue us. The Elemental Skull can use the attack magic of the four great elemental spirits.” you tell her, raising your hand and using your magic once more. “Gate.”

You then create another portal, this one directly before the true entrance to the Tomb of Nazarick. Where Shalltear greets you, along with Cocytus, Aura, and Mare.

“Get Lord Ainz inside, quickly.” Albedo orders them, dropping to a knee as she no longer can remain standing. “And prepare for battle.”
“You as well, Albedo. Retreat into the Great Tomb, you’ve done enough.” you order her. “Take your armor down to Pandora’s Actor for him to repair immediately, let him know that it takes priority.”
“Yes my lord.” she says without hesitation, turning to Mare who tentatively offers her one of the Rings of Ainz Ooal Gown to teleport deeper into the guild. “Are you coming too?”
“In a moment.” you tell her, turning to Shalltear. “You’re in charge of the battle, Aura’s second-in-command. No one is to head down into the Great Tomb of Nazarick without my express permission. If the warrior shows up alone, crush him here. If they show up in force, retreat inside and use the defenses.”

“Yes my lord!”
“We won’t let you down!”
“Understood!”
“W-We’ll win for sure.”

They all give confirmation of their orders, you nodding to them and prepare to head deeper inside. But that’s when you notice something else you missed: there’s a small crystal attached to the corner of your robe. Son of a bitch, he tracked you!

-MEANWHILE, BACK AT THE CRYSTAL SPIRE-

“So, that’s where they’re hiding.” Chilli says, the map of the world grown out of the wall radiating twin points of light in an area far away, a region several countries over.
“They came a long way for you to kick their asses.” Megumin says confidently, looking to her husband and hoping her joke would have lightened the mood. But his expression is grim, eyes locked onto the glowing lights. Then one suddenly goes out, vanishing from the map entirely. “Ah! Wh-Where’d it go?”

“Their fortress shields those inside from any and all magic.” he answers, gesturing around him. “Much like our home. So, we’ll have no way of knowing what’s inside unless we do.”
“Are you really planning on going in those monsters’ lair?” she asks, the second dot vanishing as well as she talks. “Is that a good idea?”
“No, that’s a terrible one.” he answers seriously, creating a circle out of the crystals around the area those lights vanished from. “Instead, I’m going over there tomorrow and blowing that entire region sky-high.”
“Not alone you’re not.” she answers him, hoisting her staff he’d made her. “If you’re going to unleash hell, I’m gonna be right by your side.”
“Wouldn’t have it any other way.” he replies, the two young archwizards embracing.

Looks like this battle’s not finished, not by a long shot.

Yoooooo that's dope.

My reading comprehension isn't that great because I'm retarded, but is ainz still disintegrating?

he stopped when Chilli closed his book

>>5407099
Thank you

>>5407081
Glad you enjoyed.
>>5407089
No. That stopped the moment when Ainz summoned the Greater Fear Elemental and Chilli completely lost focus. He knows fear more easily breaks Concentration than anything.

I love the fact that Ainz was so scared of Chilli that he completely glossed over the fact that he mentioned his father.
If he were to cast Discern Enemy on Karn, it'd probably be the magical equivalent of pic related.
Here's hoping Chilli calls us over to watch the fireworks.

>>5407116
Karn probably reads like a game's final DLC secret optional end boss. The one that seems like it's designed to be fought with a party in multiplayer. But it's a singleplayer game.

>>5407116
>>5407143
Chilli’s built like a world event raid final boss. But Karn’s built like a modded minmax character in comparison.

>>5407116
>Lord Ainz, what does the spell say about his statistic level?

If Karn were a Mugen character, he'd be made by a Mexican with his finger stuck on the "0" key.

>>5407179
Ha
>>5407182
Probably not, went pretty low end on the specs.
>>5407197
Exactly.
>>5407199
>mugen Karn
Which version of Karn?

>>5407143
Ainz could probably one shot Karn because we don't have the fancy magic to stop instant death that chili has.

We would just have to be faster than ainz.

>You have 12 seconds left
>I only need 4

>>5407209
Karn could probably one shot Ainz because Ainz isn't a stand user. And even if he is, he would believe in his 80,000 magical defenses to protect him.
Little does he know that it'll only serve to work against him.

>>5407209
either that or karn unlocks the classic 'hp doesn't matter while your Raging' feat.

>>5407209
The weakness of “The Goal of All Life is Death” is that it takes twelve seconds from the spell’s casting end to take effect, But if Ainz loses focus on the skill or is interrupted, he loses it. Towa advised Chilli that his Chaos magic was his best bet.
>>5407215
Absolutely. Ainz has no defenses against a Stand.
>>5407221
He doesn’t have most of the Barbarian-like perks. But those he does have, wooo boy.

>>5407230
>He doesn’t have most of the Barbarian-like perks

>ye

>>5407230
Wouldn't all Karn have to do is get and adventurer card and pick barbarian as a class?

>>5407260
Alternatively we could just pick up the skills naturally from a master Barbarian.

>>5407249
>>5407260
Many would be redundant with his other abilities, or provide strictly worse versions. Whereas if he picked something complimentary, he could gain access to a whole bunch of abilities he wouldn’t otherwise get. Like Chilli. His adventurer card doesn’t mark his class as “Archwizard” despite his incredible spellcasting ability. Ainz saw what class he was, and felt fear

>>5407271
>Ainz saw what class he was, and felt fear

lmao honestly as some point even an Exaltation will be a downgrade for karn.

>>5407271
>Ainz saw what class he was, and felt fear
What was it?

>>5407292
inb4 Teramach

>>5407291
If Ainz saw Karn’s stats the same way he sae Chilli’s, he would have IMMEDIATELY noped out. He’d need everyone he could get and a serious plan to overcome him just from the raw stat difference.
>>5407292
Spoiler. But I will say his class isn’t archwizard. He’s been leveling something else. I’ve already shown it more than once.
>>5407301

>Hwut? Just getting clicks on your company site?

oh no, its some kinda homebrew that is basically turning the entire barbarian class into what amounts to something out of Exalted.

>>5407367
the concept of Wish as a spell like ability would probably make ainze froth at the mouth if he still had the biology for it

>>5407367
>wishing away Ainz' magic wholesale
>wasting DDF on a shitty skelenoob
Just crush his bones into toothpaste ez pz

>>5407338
He does have job levels in Reaper, well only one currently. But the rest aren’t. What have you seen Chilli DO with his magic and know how?
>>5407367
Possible. But is he protected from wishes?
>>5407386
All I’m getting is a company name.
>>5407389
He does have the Shooting Star Ring. With two charges on it.
>>5407399
Karn could quite possibly kill him in under 12 seconds, even without DDF. His physical/magical damage immunities are only against weak attacks, and sub level sixty magic attacks. And Karn’s physical attack stats are well above anything he’s seen, much less encountered.

>>5407508

Interesting concept. I’ll give it a 7/10.
Some of that flavor is surprisingly close

>>5407508
>Possible. But is he protected from wishes?
It's still a fun thought. You're nearly unrivaled in some field and a guy points at you and says you can't do your specialty anymore and suddenly you can't. The guy didn't visibly cast a spell. There was no big burst of magic. No sparks and fanfare. Just some guy with a red lizard on his arm that nods and disappears and now you're just a schmuck who has to throw hands with a walking slab of biceps.

Talk about unfair. I wonder if Karn could wish to be immune to magical attacks.

>>5407508
He's clearly a paladin out to smite undead.

Or not, I don't know man.

>>5407508
Has Karn attained any level of magical resistance?

>>5407676
It would be a shit day, that’s for sure. At least it wouldn’t last long
Potentially.
>>5407693
No no, that’s just part of his job as a Reaper. But what has he been up to the last several times he’s gotten the epilogue/intermission spotlight?
>>5407886
Slightly, just due to his raw ki. Lower leveled magic can’t touch him through it. Something like a Magic Missile would just burn up

>>5407932
I've said it before, but we've really gotta start shoring up our few remaining vulnerabilities.
Magic being chief among them, would it be possible for Raven or Chilli to look into enchanting some armor for Karn?

>>5407946
>armor

>when karn gets nekkind power ups

...hmmm as the dragon of new salad karn needs a fancy hat, right?

>>5407932
Maybe he's a bard so he can pound his wife even more better.

>>5407932
...Did he take fucking Hunter?

>>5407967
Tattoos?

>>5407967
Maybe magical tattoos that double as warding glyphs?

>>5407946
>Magic being chief among them
Chilli has gifted you the answer to that problem.
>>5407967
>hat
Has the same problem Chilli’s does, blowing away when he powers up.
>>5408008
Ha, but no.
>>5408025
No. He took a class/job he’s been utilizinf to its fullest.
>>5408090
>>5408123
Tattoos don’t quite work well for someone who doesn’t possess the magic to ‘activate’ them.

>>5408129
So hats and tats are out...
What about an earring? Would be a bitch to deal with if he forgets to take it off in the Gravity Chamber, but its better than a loose accessory that could get blown away, or worse snagged on, like a hat or a cape.

>>5408129
>Chilli has gifted you the answer to that problem
The dagger? We've really gotta get that thing to an appraiser...

King of Karnage

:V

>>5408138
Karn would be terrifying with -any- of the lantern rings.

>>5408146
Green, Blue, Red, and Yellow would probably all suit him incredibly well.
Although I guess that speaks to the fact that Karn draws his strength from a wide variety of emotions.

>>5408133
With as many times as your ear’s been cut, might not be a good idea. >>5408135
It is a tool even stronger than he knew.
>>5408137
Ha, true.
>>5408138
A Green Lantern ring would be a good tool, but giving him a weakness to the color yellow would be extremely detrimental. On a planet of Super Saiyans.
>>5408139
Ha, but no. Chilli picked a very specific class cluster for a reason.
>>5408146
Not a fear one, as you must POSSESS fear.
>>5408184
True

>>5408186
Did he take artificer or some equivalent class?

He has been making a bunch of magical items, and he is our go to son for identifying magical items.

>>5408311
I’ll leave this question open a bit for everyone, would you all like me to drop an Overlord-styled class breakdown on Chilli sometime tomorrow? As it was Ainz’s skill that revealed his stats, it would reveal them in a way he could understand. Both his racial and job levels

>>5408337
I'd be down for that.

>>5408337
Sure, I'm interested in seeing just what Chilli's capable of.

>>5408337
Yeah, that sounds dope, maybe one for Karn too, if only for the hypothetical at least.

he's already see the super saiyan racial, so LEGENDARY super saiyan can only mean one thing, and he's probably seen the OG broly movies.

Or i suppose a Unique Boss Monster, but karn lacks the obligatory boss immunities for that.

>>5408363
>>5408365
Hoo boy, where do I start? Can’t say much due to spoilers, but only one can be achieved on your own. The other needs a certain push, but neither are “gods” in that they have no divine ki.

>he's already see the super saiyan racial, so LEGENDARY super saiyan can only mean one thing, and he's probably seen the OG broly movies.
Bingo

Something more akin to a unique Elite spawn from Diablo with insane stats and a super rare spawn chance

>>5408337
That would be cool

I do genuinely like the customization available in that system, wish a real game had that much effort put in.
>>5408412
Heh

>>5408446
If an actual game had that much customization in it, it would easily win top 10 game awards and shit.

Or it would get buried behind paywalls.

>>5408465
Or it would be an overambitious mess.

>>5408465
>Or it would get buried behind paywalls.
Have you not seen the wide variety of cash shop items you buy with real money? Without them Ainz would have lost to Shalltear, or at least came into the fight with a completely different strategy.
>>5408498
True. Modern mmorpgs have gone with a completely different approach to game balance, quite unlike the DnD-style Overlord’s YGGDRASIL is based off of.

>>5408465
>Or it would get buried behind paywalls.
Well, Yggdrasil was basically a P2W game. Ainz and the rest of the guild were all whales who sunk their money into the game.

>>5408502
Cash shop items are one thing, but I was referring to core game mechanics like classes locked behind $$ Wich is what I think would happen if a company were to create a game like ygdrasil today.

>>5408541
In their world I couldn’t blame them.
>>5408914
Well, not DIRECTLY behind a paywall. But for example, unlocking the World Class Fighter class required winning the yearly tournament. Which only the most skilled and cunning whales could do. The more genuis is hiding classes behind other classes, like hiding Eclipse behind maxing out Overlord, an already rare class. Some others are only obtained by killing a certain number of non-humanoid players, or humanoid players. Some would be paid, but not directly “Pay money acquire class”

When I drop this Chilli Overlord-style stat sheet later today, I’ll be around for several questions to answer afterwards. Many of these classes will reveal some OOC knowledge, even to Chilli himself. While you all wait, here’s one to ponder:
Why does Chilli have a proclivity towards opposite magics? Fire and Ice, and Light and Dark most specifically?

>>5408985
Could be that's he's conflicted internally and it's manifesting itself by drawing him towards opposing elements subconsciously.

>>5409004
Not quite. Chilli’s quite an anomaly among the elementalists
