"I didn't actually believe you, it seems that you were right"

"Of course I was and since Lord Beerus is asleep, this is your problem to handle"

'No shot'

My mind blanked as Vados and Hit walked towards me.

'What the-, how is this even possible'

I was honestly stun-locked, my mind spinning as the pair casually approached me.

Hit was clad in God of Destruction robes, he was about 6 feet tall and was slim, looking more like an athlete and less like a warrior. Vados was by his side, dressed in a form-fitting green dress, the curves and contours of her body discernable from beneath her dress.

She had a devious expression on her face, the glint in her eyes immediately making me uneasy.

"That lazy cat only knows how to make more work for me, this should be interesting at the very least," he muttered aloud, his eyes locked onto me.

Vados chuckled, her face quickly appearing normal.

They both approached me, stopping a few meters away.

"I'll be blunt, you have been found in violation of Universal Law on the matter of benefiting from Time Travel" 

His expression was cold and his voice was dry, not a hint of emotion in his entire demeanor. 

"The punishment for a Time Travel crime is a Life Sentence and failure to co-operate can escalate this to an immediate execution, do as you see fit," Hit said sharply.

I stared at the pair of them blankly, my mind racing as I tried to make sense of the situation.

'Absolutely not'

It was difficult.

If Vados chose to get involved then my victory was not certain at all but if it was only Hit, I could definitely overpower him.

'Hit doesn't even have hands for real, he just gets carried by Time Skip'

If Vados hung back then I could do him worse than Jiren.

Anxiety drummed up in my chest as silence hung in the air.

'Screw it'

I decided to make a move first, firing a dark pink energy bolt from my palm.

"So you've decided to fight"

Hit immediately exercised the Time Skip technique, my magic beam passing through the image he projected while Vados stepped to one side, staring at the energy blast with curiosity.

My head rapidly swerved, allowing a purple fist to appear in my eye-line.

"Although I must admit, I'm curious to see the upper limits of a Majin"

I could feel strength rushing through my body, flooding my muscles and bones, only re-affirming what I already knew.

'This is not a training exercise'

Hit spammed the Time Skip repeatedly, only lingering in true reality for a microsecond at a time, launching an attack before completely disappearing.

While he was in his Pocket Dimension, he was basically invulnerable, no attack in my current arsenal capable of reaching where he was.

'The smartest thing to do is to conserve my Ki and defend myself, waiting for his reserves to deplete'

I closed my eyes and moved my body, fully trusting it to dictate my movements.

Although Hit was practically invisible, I could still pick the sound of his fists soaring through the air and the sharp burst of Ki in the atmosphere when he emerged from his Pocket Dimension.

This gave my body more than enough information to evade his strikes, his raw speed lower than mine.

'There's no need to hold back'

I used the Time Skip myself, slipping into my Pocket Dimension and charging my Ki.

I released a massive wave of energy, a pillar of dark pink erupting from me as I quickly entered Super Majin, my hair flashing pink.

I shifted back into mainstream reality and sensed another incoming punch.

I grabbed Hit's fist with the greatest of ease, using my left arm to elbow his stomach.

A sharp energy blade emerged from the tip of my elbow, slashing into Hit's body, linking two weak spots I had sensed.

Hit's eyes widened in shock but I didn't allow him to recover.

'Attempting to restrict my freedom is not a small matter'

Under the weight of my concentration my right fist overflowed with Ki, slamming into his stomach with a mighty BANG! His body flew towards my spaceship, Kai Kai letting me deliver a flying kick to his back.

It also enabled me to appear in front of him, a full power punch connecting with his face.

'I'm not going to give him a second to rest'

I fully exploited Hit's stun time, not easing up at all.

[Vados POV]

'He's even more frightening than I anticipated'

I watched the Majin chain a series of 50 hits of Lord Hit.

'I didn't expect Lord Hit to be played with so candidly'

Although it didn't appear so, Lord Hit was the strongest mortal in the whole of galaxy 6 and he had been for more than a thousand years.

'That's what he gains for relying so much on his Time Skip, contrary to my advice'

The more I watched the Majin the more intrigued I became, more questions playing in my mind.

I had used my staff to observe him, understanding that his Future Self had visited him and enabled him to become so strong.

'But how does his future self know about Hit's Time Skip?'

Aside from other Lords of Destruction and their attendants, nobody else had survived after seeing the technique, begging the question of the mortal using it.

'Moreover, he's only be alive for so long, how was he able to reach such proficiency so quickly'

Even amongst Majins such a thing was unheard of.

'He will make an excellent Lord of Destruction'

Vados really had to try in order to conceal her smirk, joy beaming on her insides. She already picture the faces of the other attendants when they saw the Majin alongside her.

If she imagined the faces they would make when the Majin actually fought other Lords of Destruction, she would probably squeal in delight.

'Whis is going to be so angry!!!'

She felt like moaning, finally able to pull a fast one over her brother who seemed to get the upper hand every time.

'It looks like Hit has finally reached his limit'

[MC POV]

'I don't want to kill him'

"I surrender! I surrender!"

Hit grumbled loudly as his body hit the floor, blood streaming down his faces while it also leaked from his body, dripping quickly all over the floor.

'I'm not a battle junkie like those Saiyans'

Although I had superior Saiyan genetics, my brain wasn't wired like those monkeys.

I didn't desire violence, neither did I immediately resort to violence yet if someone where to try be violent with my, they would learn the hard way.

Hit spluttered and gasped, finally able to breathe air without having his chest bashed over head smacked.

"Congratulations mortal, Lord Hit's defeat marks the ascendance of a new Lord of Destruction," she said deviously.

'What?'

I floated down to the ground, standing beside a battered Hit.

"What do you mean?" I said, crossing my arms.

"It's Universal Law, when a Lord of Destruction is defeated in combat they immediately lose their rank, the challenger who defeated them taking the position from them"

'What!?'

[A/N] - Sorry about the sporadic chapter uploads, I'm trying to get into a rhythm, I've got some stuff going on IRL.

How done would you guys be for making Vados a Romance Interest? If I go with her, it will be only one for the whole story.
