A slight shrug was given. It was to be expected that the squid man didn’t know who they were. They hadn’t been venturing through the Living Realm for very long, and even then, they weren’t important back in the Demon Realm, either. Just one Demon out of the countless that resided back home. Though, the topic of the Super Saiyans is what really seemed to snag Athel’s attention. “Ten times, you say? That sounds rather.. interesting. Perhaps I might hunt down one of these Saiyans some time in the future to get an idea of just how strong they truly are.” A nod followed their words. “Are there any identifiable traits that make them stand out, General?” Having as much information on these Saiyans would surely help speed the process along. But for now, they had not felt like searching for one. Athel was feeling lazy today.
If one held out hope and continued working long enough, they’d surely get what they were after. Like getting to be the director, in Kraktus’ case- but alas, it seemed as the possibility for that had already been chucked out the window. Very unfortunate. “Even if they were stupid, they probably could have been used at some point to your benefit. Personally, I would have attempted to find some way to manipulate them.” Athel shrugs some. “But oh well, no way to change the past, I suppose.”
“Planting the seeds for the future is a good idea, yes.” Athel agreed, continuing to float around in circles as they had been doing for a while now. At this point, the outlander had already lost sight of their original goal. That was fine, though. Having a nice, somewhat relaxing conversation was a good replacement for whatever it was they had originally intended on doing way out here. “But if you fail to take care of the seedling, it will never manage to fully grow and will more than likely wilt away in the end.” They nodded a few times to their own words. They arched a brow some as Kraktus gave some insight onto whatever his species was called. “Indeed, I am a Demon- And we do tend to have long lives. I am currently over three-hundred years old. Assuming that you have yet to reach one-hundred, you still have quite some time left.” They figured that had to be pretty true. And as long as the squid-man managed to keep track of everything, and water the so called seeds for destruction, then in thirty years a fair amount of progress should’ve been made. “- Well, so long as you are not killed, anyways. I doubt that everyone is going to be willing to join your cause, after all. But if you truly are as powerful as you say and somehow manage to grow even stronger, nothing should stand in your way, yes?”

Kraktus smirked as Athel seemed keen to meet a super saiyan warrior. He found that interesting looking at her seemed to be the type to avoid trouble. "Well to answer your question a normal saiyan has black hair and black eyes but as a super saiyan they instead have golden hair and green piercing eyes." He made an emphasis on the eyes. The hair was the feature most people would see but the eyes were what he noticed. They were like the lenses of fury. Kraktus shook his head as Athel noted that even if they were stupid they could have been used. "Yes but sometimes people are so stupid that they will just do something to make your plans get ruined. There is a careful balance for those you recruit to your side. If they are too stupid they will ruin your plans and too smart they will surpass you. You need someone in between." Kraktus smirked in confidence. When it came to goons he knew what he was talking about.
Kraktus smirked as Athel praised him once more for his plans to set up for the future. Yet that smirk faded a bit as Athel made a note that he had to be careful that seed actually grew and didn't just die. It seemed that was what was happening with a lot of his plans. Krkatus grumbled. "Yes, I must be aware of that. I think it will be fine but I've learned that it is quite difficult to control people who are actually strong in fortitude." Getting people like Kayen and Carro to do what he wanted with his seeds never worked because they were not foolish and had a strong will. She did also confirm she was a demon and made not she was 300 years old. "You don't look 300," Kraktus smiled lightly. She did make the point that while not everyone would join his cause if he proved to be powerful as he likes to think he was then he could get what he wanted. "Yes, I am not strong enough alone though to take my plans. They are many warriors as strong as I am if not stronger."

The Demon had stumbled upon regular Saiyans before, and had even learned a bit about them back home, but a Super Saiyan was definitely something that the young Demon hadn’t heard about until now. Perhaps some commoners that wandered the city streets said something about it before, but Athel wasn’t sure. “Golden hair and piercing green eyes..” That bit was repeated a few times, hoping to remember it well. “Got it! Hopefully hunting down one of these Super Saiyans wont be too difficult. Do you think they would let me study them if I asked nicely enough?” The outlander asked, somewhat curious. Given the fact that Saiyans enjoyed fighting, perhaps it would’ve been best to encounter one via a little battle or something of that sort.
Athel rubber their chin a tad in thought. They hadn’t ever even attempted to really recruit somebody to their cause, so maybe they didn’t really know what they were talking about. But in the Demon’s head at least, what they said made a little sense- and what Kraktus said made about as much sense, as well. “Well, that is indeed true, I suppose. I am sure you have far more experience when it comes to recruiting than I do, so I will have to take your word for it.” The outlander said with a nod. “In any case, the past cannot be changed so no need to worry about the nobles anymore, yes?”
“If you cannot control the stronger individuals, then perhaps it would be best to focus your efforts on controlling the weaker, less intelligent ones.” Athel said, still floating around in circles for whatever reason. “Though they might be less useful, surely you can find a place for them. Perhaps the lesser beings could do the manual labor and you could use them to bring in some sort of profit.” They shrugged. Money wasn’t everything, but it was essential when trying to acquire various essential items, such as food. In response to not looking three hundred, the Demon just nodded their head a tad. “Weeeeeell.. as I am sure you are well aware, we Demons do indeed tend to live for quite a while, so long as we avoid getting hunted down. And as a result, our bodies do not change that much over time. Maybe when I reach two-thousand wrinkles will begin to form.” Yet another shrug followed that last sentence. “Maybe.”
“Strong warriors..” A light hum left the Demon for a few moments. “Funny thing you should mention that, I was told Earth had a plethora of those, but I have yet to see any- In fact, if what your power reader says is true, then you might be the first person I have actually came across that is stronger than me- Not that it really matters, though. I did not set out for the Living Realm with the intention of fighting people like some sort of barbarian.” They nod. “But yes. If that is the case, then it would be wise to amass an army of some sort to help combat the stronger foes. Or just get so strong that nobody can stop you. One of those two.”

Kraktus shook his head as Athel asked if a super saiyan would allow themselves to study. "Matters the person but I doubt it. Why would you want to study one anyway?" Kraktus was confused. He could only assume she wanted to mimic the powers of super saiyan. It made sense she didn't seem to be that strong. The appeal of having the ability to increase one power by tenfold was appealing. If he was in her shoes he could understand. Kraktus sighed putting a hand to his chin as Athel noted he probably knew more about recruiting "Yes of course." He said through his teeth. He really didn't want to think about all the failures he had recruiting though he did cheer up a bit when Athel noted at least the nobles were gone. That was true he'd never have to worry about them agian.
Kraktus nodded as Athel made the point that if he had trouble controlling the stronger and smart ones then he could control the weaker and less intelligent. "That is a thought." Except he didn't need weak people on his side. He needed strong warriors on his side. Considering his foe would be the entire universe he'd needed all the help he could get. He supposed that was the fun in it. If it was easy for him to destroy everything and get people to help him then the joy of killing everything would be gone. The challenge would also disspear and that wouldn't make him happy. He gave himself a goal that is hard to reach that which made his life so enjoyable. The challenge got his blood pumping. Kraktus smiled lightly as Athel noted that Demons live for a long time. "I am aware but I ain't a demon so I don't have the time you do."
Then Athel noted she had not found any strong warriors on this planet. Kraktus laughed a bit. "They are many strong warriors. Though I am filled with pride that I am the first strong person you have found." Kraktus sarcastically stated. "They are many strong warriors on this planet you just have not run into them yet it seems. That is fine I am sure you will find them soon. This planet has an assortment of warriors from those who are weak as pebbles to those who can destroy planets with ease. Even those who can make me look weak I must admit." When she noted he had two options he laughed. "Well, I won't become stronger than everyone else. Sadly the only option I have is to combine the strength of many members to crush everyone else. Hence my issue." Kraktus grinned. "So since we're talking about this I might as well ask. Do you want to join my forces?" Kraktus grinned.

“Why would I want to study one? Hmm..” A hand came up, the Demon beginning to rub their chin for quite a while as they thought. “Just curious, really. A blonde haired Saiyan sounds fairly uncommon, so getting the chance to get up close and examine them seems like it would be a pretty great opportunity. While I am sure asking around and searching through texts could provide me with enough information, I would much rather witness their transformation up close.” They said, nodding their head a few times, letting the hand drop to their side where it usually rested. Though Athel would likely end up running into one if they stuck around the Living Realm long enough, getting around to doing it as quickly as possible would’ve been nice- otherwise, they’d likely get forget all about the Super Saiyans at some point.
“It is certainly something that could be thought about. Alternatively, you could just gather strong people who tend to fall into the less intelligent category. Those ones would probably be fairly easy to control, though if somebody decided to revolt, that could be a problem.” A slight nod followed the Demon’s words. Taking over the entire universe sure was a plan that required a lot of thinking- and was bound to require a lot of bodies, as well. “But! In the end, it is up to you. I care not for taking over the universe or anything, after all. So long as nothing is destroyed before I can log it, then I am happy.” Yet another nod followed. Other than learning and taking the occasional break to mess with Earth’s inhabitants, Athel really didn’t have much other they really looked forward to- except for maybe rising through the tiers amongst the other Demons back home. Becoming a ruler within the Demon Realm would’ve been nice.
“Yes, I have indeed heard. Whenever these warriors decide to show up, I will be content. Meeting up with them is far from important, though. Getting some questions in would be nice, but if I fail to stumble on them, it wont bother me too much. Not entirely sure I would really want to stumble upon any of these planet destroyers, anyhow.” A shrug was given, Athel beginning to spin around in one spot now, similar to a record. A low hum left the Demon for some time, seemingly deep in thought on that last bit Kraktus said. Did Athel really want to join up with a group that wanted to conquer the universe? “Not really. As nice as the offer is, I have my own goals I need to focus on for now. However, I suppose helping out when needed would be fine, so long as it is not an inconvenience to myself- not sure what you could even use me for, though.” Athel nods some. “But! I will keep the offer in the back of my mind, in case I choose to tag along with your band permanently at some later point, yes.”

Kraktus grunted as she wanted to study them out of curiosity? That seemed like a dangerous game. A super saiyan could bench her in half. Hell, a super saiyan was a tough fight even for him. "I see well that is not safe. Though it does not matter if you want to go meet a super saiyan that is up to you I would be careful. They are fearsome warriors and they are hard to control. If you do see one that usually means a fight is about to start. I doubt you can stand before a super saiyan."
Then she noted he could gather a ton of people who were not all that smart. They may be easy to control but if he failed to control them he'd be in trouble. That was quite and that was like the stargoons. It seems that had happened since they were out missing. Kraktus didn't know but he was sure he'd get an answer soon. She then made it clear she didn't care to help him join and take over the universe. She just wanted to make sure it was not destroyed.That was too bad for her considering he was going to destroy everything in the end but that was for the future.
She then noted she didn't care that much meeting the powerhouses on this planet but merely it would be nice. That was a good mindset to have. Most people he knew wanted to rush and find the strongest even if it could prove to be detrimental to them. "Yes though most of those planet destoyer are not the type to blow away planets. In fact by appearance you would think they are too kind for there own good." Kraktus snorted thinking about the heros of earth. They were all so foolish. As for his offer she didn't want to join but she'd keep it in the back of her mind. "Good that is actually the best answer. I'll keep your name in mind. Is there anyone else you wanna ask." Kraktus bowed his head.

“Studying can be dangerous sometimes, that I am well aware of.” Athel said, nodding their head a tad. Explorers and whatnot would venture out to different regions of the universe and sometimes have no idea what they might’ve encountered out there. To the Demon at least, not knowing what might await them in the pursuit of knowledge was a little exciting. “You need not worry about me, though. I have no intention of fighting any of the Saiyans- well, not right now, anyway. Even though I could probably figure out someway to avoid getting pummeled, I would much rather not risk getting my face beat in. I just require a few minutes to talk with them and learn as much information as I possibly could.” Two more nods followed their words.
What the General had said raised a few questions within the Demon’s head. If they were able to blend in with the normal people of Earth, then had it been possible Athel bumped into some of the Earth’s defenders and just didn’t realize it? A hand came up, the outlander rubbing their chin some more in thought. “I see. Having a power reader or being able to sense energies should have been something I looked into a long time ago, in that case. Perhaps then picking out these planet destroyers would be far, far easier.” Humming ensues for a couple of seconds, the Demon eventually giving a slight shrug. “Ah well, no way to change the past I suppose. I suppose figuring out some way to pick out power readings is pretty high on my list right now, in that case. After all, bumping into a formidable foe and angering them on accident without knowing how strong they really are would surely end my time here amongst the living earlier than I’d like.”
“In any case..” Athel’s hand proceeded to lower down to their sides, the continued spinning around they had been doing for a while now coming to a halt. Pitch black eyes landed back on the squid man. “There is nothing else I really have to ask you. I have taken up enough of your time, General, so I shall be on my way. After all, seeking out a resting point is still something I would like to do before it gets too late.” The Demon began to slowly float up into the air a little higher. “And since you cannot supply me with any potential locations, I must start my search as soon as possible.”
With that, they began to slowly float away from the scene, offering a slight wave of sorts back to Kraktus as they began to depart. “Farewell for now, General!”

Kraktus shook his heads as Athel noted he didn't have to worry about her. She was correct since she was not someone he cared for. He didn't care for anyone. So if she went on and died then that was her own fault. Still going to talk to the saiyans had their risks. Guess she didn't make herself a target like him so she should be alright. As long as she followed her game plan she should not have any trouble. When he mentioned they were many planet destroyers she seemed to realize how important it would be to get a scouter or the ability to sense Ki. "Yes, that would be wise. You would be surprised they are a lot of strong fighters who do not look the part. But that is part of the strength of Earth. They overestimated and underestimated at the same time." History told they were strong but it seemed they were being viewed as too strong. At the same time, those weaker or not aware of the old histories seem to think Earth was filled with weaklings. It was an odd conundrum indeed. She then began to excuse herself he gave a nod. "The cities are your best bet for strong fighters," Kraktus said when she claimed he could not supply her with any location. That was not the case but regardless he gave her a nod as she flew off and went to do his own thing.
