80 Bragging (1/2)
”So, you expect some experts here?” Zangya rolled her eyes as she asked.
”Hm? No, I don't, as if there were any strong creatures on this backward planet. I just wanted to brag a bit.” A vein popped after hearing that, but she quickly calmed down and inquired further.
”Brag? About what?”
”Of course, of how strong I am. I want to see them despair when they realize they stand no chance against me.”
”Why?” She was confused.
'Why would someone like him feel the need to brag to some aboriginals about his strength? One can probably count the people who can match him in strength on one hand.' Of course, that was not the opinion Broly had on the experts of the universe.
”Because it is fun.” He quickly landed in the middle of what appeared to be the market. She looked at the spectacle from above. He was speaking to them, of course they couldn't understand anything he said. He fired a ki blast on empty area, which resulted in them panicking. Next, what appears to be the tribe's chief, came out and dashed towards Broly and just punched out. Unleashing numerous attacks only to find it ineffective against Broly, who just took the attacks head-on without flinching. He slapped the chief away. Considering the difference in power, Zangya couldn't understand why Broly started laughing at their dejected and terrified faces.
He then flew to another tribe, but this time assumed an almighty being, who came to teach them, Zangya figured. She knew that only because she saw him draw out ki meditation methods. Although there was still a barrier of language, the strongest out of the group seemed to understand and kneeled down to Broly like he was a god. He again flew to another tribe and acted out another scene. A hero, a thief, a bandit, a lost person, a beggar…
Obviously Broly didn't go around this planet and acted out these scenarios because it was 'fun'. Zangya approached him and asked again, why he did that.
Broly gave her a look before he started to explain.
”I am acting.”
”Acting? What do you need acting for?” Zangya was even more puzzled now. Broly laughed at her confused face.
”Because I want to be a villain and give some motivation.” After saying that he turned around and headed to their ship.
Zangya pondered about his reasoning but she couldn't get anything out of it.
'To be a villain, to give motivation? Are there some heroes he wants to push? The galactic patrol?'
As she was pondering about it, her thoughts took a strange turn. 'Am I a villain?'
She couldn't help but realize that considered to this group, she was more villainous. Although she saw the three as devilish creatures in the beginning, she realized they were good people. They didn't go around and exterminate civilization or kill without reason like she did in the past. Of course, she hadn't spent much time with them, but this is how she perceived them. She on the other hand, after her race and her planet was exterminated, she only wanted to stand on the top of this universe. She unleashed her anger on the races of the universes and exterminated them. She only bullied the weak, while she never thought about the consequences her actions caused.
'In a way, no, I am a villain…' Suddenly someone patted on her shoulder. She turned her head and saw Broly smiling at her.
”What are you thinking about?” Broly looked at her, seemingly trying to pry into her mind.
”I- nothing.”
”Do you want me to stop bully them?” Broly asked her in a teasing matter. Zangya furrowed her eyebrows, in her eyes this wasn't even considered bullying. He just pulled some stupid acts with them, but of course she wouldn't say that.
”No. I- It's nothing.” It was only unnoticeable, but her eyes had a glint of guilt in them. Broly, who was unbelievable perceptive, saw this.
”…You were scum.”
Zangya widened her eyes in shock, but more than shock she felt sad for how Broly saw her. She wanted to fly away but was hold into place by him.
”You know your uncle is a really good man, a hero. He took in countless people from different races into his city and protected them from a murderous race. He didn't ask for anything in return and even offered to guide the next generation of the other races. He even almost lost his life by protecting my and many other races. You on the other hand did what you wanted to do, killed and probably wiped out races…”
She gritted her teeth in frustration but couldn't rebuke him in any way. She endured it in silence.
