"I'm hungry..."
"You're always hungry Lord Beerus..." an angel shook his head, "Do you need to nap right now?"
The god of destruction waved his hands, "Nah, tell me... why are you releasing so much power, are you attracting someone?" Beerus yawned while floating, "Do you want to fight someone strong, or perhaps you just want some food?"
"No Lord Beerus," Whis shook his head again, "I'm constantly releasing my energy so that a certain individual may notice it and find a way to get back here..."
"Oh, you mean that brat," Beerus spat, "Ever since he disappeared, I've been the one dealing with Lord Zeno's treatment!"
The humanoid looking cat sneered and crossed his arms, "Can you even think how horrible it is to play with someone who could wipe you out in a single second if he's displeased with the slightest mistake you make? So horrifying!"
"I don't relate to that Lord Beerus, but I hope you'll endu-" Whis didn't finish his sentence as he noticed a presence, "Somone's tagging my energy... wait, this could be Dante!"
Whis told the god of destruction, only for the latter to nod in response. The angel concentrated his power and focused on connecting to the one that's marking/tagging his signature. "He's close..."
Not a second later, a massive rainbow-colored portal appeared in front of them, making them awe behind the power of the portal. It wasn't the person inside that they were afraid of, it was the space of portal itself. It felt so... ominous yet good at the same time, like something that can blow up anytime.
"OH YEAH!" A raven-haired man walked outside the portal, "Now that's what I call a success!"
Whis smiled while Beerus gritted his teeth, "You brat, how dare you disappear without notice! Do you know how much mental pain and torture I went through because of you? Do you know how much anxiety has built up in my brain capacity to even think properly!?" the god of destruction walked towards Dante, wanting to punch him.
He pulled his arm back to punch the raven-haired, only to suddenly stop. He couldn't move. "Oh? Interesting... you've become stronger?"
Dante grinned while scratching the back of his head, "Sorta... I've received some fine gifts from Zeno after all, I may not be as strong as you guys now, but there'll be the time where I won't even lift my fingers to beat all of you!" the raven-haired boasted in front of their face.
"Yeah, yeah... I guess you're the real Dante since only you can boast that much, by the way, before anything else," Whis smiled but turned his face seriously after, "Go to Lord Zeno's palace and apologize, kneel a thousand times and cry... do whatever you can to please him so that all of us may live!"
"..."
"!!!"
"Okay, I guess you're serious. However, I'm only here to bid my farewells..."
"..."
"..."
"WHAT THE F*CK DID YOU JUST SAY YOU PIECE OF SH*TE!?" Whis, the angel who could control his emotions no longer held it back and grabbed the raven-haired's coat. "I helped you, trained you, feed you, and you're just gonna leave us with Lord Zeno??? An angry one at that!?"
"YEAH, you should repay your teachers for the rest of your life and be Lord Zeno's plaything you piece'a'sh*t!" Beerus found a way to slide in and did it, cursing the life out of the raven-haired.
"Ha?" Dante furrowed his eyebrows in confusion, "By training, you mean being thrown wherever, not knowing when I can even take a break and eat!? And you! God of destruction your ass! You didn't train or help me one bit aside from me being on your planet so you've no shit in this you cocksucker!"
They kept bickering, with Beerus ganging up with Whis against the raven-haired.
"Now, now... who do we have here, it's a pleasure to finally meet you again Lord Dante..." the grand priest arrived without any of them noticing, aside from Dante, who seemed to subconsciously know he was there from the beginning. "If you excuse us, gentlemen, I need to borrow Dante and take him to Lord Zeno for a discussion... that is, of course, you don't mind?"
This made Beerus shiver, but Whis just nodded, "Take this piece of sh*te, he's useless here. He may be of use in Lord Zeno's palace as a plaything!" the angel friendly smiled, offering his student.
"O-Oi, I understand going... but you sound like you guys no longer want me here..."
"Ah, did I make it sound that way? Apologies, I'm only saying that you can come here if Lord Zeno's finished playing with you... around a million years maybe?"
XXXXXXXXXX
"Dante-chan!" Zeno floated towards the raven-haired, hugging him, to which he returned after. "Where were you? I've been looking for you, it's been so long since we last played. They are all so boring, they aren't as good at playing as you!" Zeno pointed at the grand priest and everyone in the palace, making them smile wryly.
'We want to Lord Zeno... you just prefer Dante since he's your best friend...' That was what everyone was thinking at this point.
"Zenny..." Dante sighed, wanting to inform this early, "I came here so that I could tell you that I'm leaving this galaxy... I'm traveling back to my own world with a girl I really really like when I was stranded in a universe I stumbled on..."
Zeno didn't reply, staying silent. Looking down as tears were forming in his eyes...
"LORD ZENO!!!" the guards shouted but didn't dare to go near them, that'd only piss the Lord more.
"Zenny, you're my best friend. I like you, but I need to have a family too, I'm only a human... I appreciate your gifts and our time together, but I'd like to be a little selfish to do what I want for now..."
"..."
"Zenny... come on, don't cry... Don't you know what happens when you cry?"
"I... I go mad and byebye to everything..."
"Yes, and byebye to me also... you want that?"
"No!!!"
"Then don't cry... How about I stay here for a week and play with you here in the palace to make up the time I lost? Come on, it's gonna be fun!" Dante smiled and offered his hand to Zeno who was now looking up to him.
"R-Really? You'll stay? I understand... as long as you stay for one week, I will not go mad and byebye to everyone!" Zeno rubbed his eyes to get rid of the tears, "I promise!"
