“It’s not quite like that, they just tend to reveal themselves to me alone. They don’t go invisible, they just hide. I think they want the people around me to believe I’m crazy. To isolate me. Only one of my friends has any belief and he’s not all there himself.” she explained. “It’s a harsh strategy, but it’s working.”
“Have you considered ridding yourself of these creatures? Your religious human mumbo-jumbo does not work against Aku but it may be effective against inferior entities.”
“I’m not…um, i’m not really all that religious. I have some temporary solutions though that are working for me. Besides, may be I deserve it?” she looked down at that, pondering for a minute.
“Deserve it?” Aku raised a fiery eyebrow. It was true that humans as a species deserved punishment for their initial lack of respect for Aku, but he did not expect any of them to feel the same. Especially ones that hailed from a different dimension altogether.
“For what reason do you deserve such punishment? Have you been wicked toward your own mortal kind?”
“That is why mortals are wise to fear the power of the gods. I’ve faced rebellion and resistance against my own power and law, but the insects who would DARE to threaten my ideal world have been exterminated.”Zamasu agreed, the pale, jade skinned god’s blank face slowly evolving into a smile.
“As admirable as is to regulate mortal kind, my lord, why even waste the effort of having these weak creatures around? Even before truly gifted creatures like you and I have even drawn breath, mortals have done nothing but rebel against even their own kind.” He elaborated as he extended a hand out to the shadowy demon.
“Which is why, Lord, Aku, I have come with a proposition for you…. why not think of something grander to do with the power we possess? We can correct the failure that our own kind have created, and remake the universe if we have to…”
But Aku was not willing to accept any deals yet. True, it sounded intriguing, but the demon lord was just as skeptical as he was curious. He was silent for a moment as he considered the offer.
“Remake the universe, you say?” He pondered. Yes, a universe without the Samurai and the gods that aided him would be a grand place indeed. But was it possible? “And how would that work?”
“It’s tolerable at times. But I was thinking of other things…” He folded his arms tightly and averted his gaze. “Things like affection, closeness. I dislike them often, but not always. That is what I meant.”
“At the very least that is true… Although I do find enjoyment in causing chaos purely among myself’s from time to time.” Thinking back on his rest, he exhaled, “Rejuvenating, but horrific in the manner that nightmares do not stop toward the end of the rest.”
“That exquisite gift was from you? I am overjoyed to hear this!” Producing the gifts from thin air, he showed that he had been preserving the flowers artificially and the chocolates were untouched, “I was thinking we could share the chocolates.”
Aku was surprised to see the items still perfectly preserved and not yet eaten. Surprised and delighted.
“Gladly!” he said with an excited grin. “It would be my pleasure to help you rid yourself of these chocolates.” By eating them, of course.
@unspeakablyevil well she’s reduced to nothing but a living, volatile embodiment of fury now, are u proud of her dadku
HE IS, ACTUALLY
Aku truly believes that anger is the strongest emotion and the only one that will actually save you when you’re boxed into a corner. If you can’t run, EXPLODE.
His advice would be this:
“Your strength is the fire that burns within you. It is the only thing that will protect you when nothing else can. UNLEASH IT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT!”
