Well, this was happening. As soon as Faustus stepped into battle with Azoth he knew it was a possibility, and now it was here. The Majin didn't know a whole lot about the afterlife, but he had studied as much as he could on the subject after first meeting the Kais, and knew at least that there would be some sort of judging ceremony. As he approached the desk of the entity known as Yemma he was at first intimidated, but quickly found his nerve and prepared to defend himself.
"Alright buddy... I think we both know where this is going, but before we I would like to at least give myself some credibility. I've done a lot of bad things in my short life, but a lot of those were done for good reasons, and let's not forget any of the goods things either! Shall we start at the beginning then?"
Faustus used his magic to produce a long sheet of paper which rolled out to the floor and all the way outside. He produced a pair of glassed and started from the top.
"My first act of life was to absorb my creator. Now you may see that as an act of evil, but given your all seeing capability you should know that absorption was exactly what he wanted! So we can add that to the list of positives. Now to be fair I did latter spit him out and uh, kill him, so I guess that's a negative, but let's just say those two cancel each other out."
Faustus moved the paper down a bit and continued.
"Now, originally I did agree to work for the one known as Azoth, and as I'm sure you know he's a good guy, right? He wants to bring peace to the galaxy, and so did I? Is that another one for the positive list? Now of course I did betray him and try to kill him as well as the rest of the Frontier... so lets just say those two cancel each other as well, huh? We may have a few of those..."
Faustus wipes a few beads of sweat from his brow...
"Okay, I have fought people, you know? Plenty of people. I fought Pitt, Rosemary, Vennel too I believe? There was Suri and Erebos... but those were sanctioned fights! Steel too... I nearly killed him... that's probably another one for the bad list. I did try to steal a Shinjin from your territory, and bind them to Earth... probably another bad one, right? Where did I put all the good ones... Oh! I did help Delia sneak into a theme park, and we had a great time! Though I guess that counts as cheating, right?"
More nerves, more sweat
"I guess there's all the kidnapping I did. I ran experiments on animals and... more intelligent creatures as well. I was a man of science though; sometimes you gotta crack a few eggs to make breakthroughs, you know? You seem like a smart guy; you should know that! I did try to steal that Saiyan kid as well... what was his name? Tarch, and his brother too... but that one didn't even work! I'm mean, if I'm being entirely honest... I've never really cared much about the thoughts of others. I often did things I know would hurt just because of my own selfish desires... oh boy what am I even saying now?"
There was a puddle at the feet of Faustus now.
"Okay... I feel like I haven't done a great job of accounting for myself; can I get a retrial?"
