The Light that Cast Away Shadow

Kamae silently kept his eyes on the ground as the man spoke, he listened as he went on and on just as the demon had done... repeating history. Repeating over and over again and again. If he wasn't the one who did it, someone else would. So then if he could not be the destroyer he could simply let someone else do the job for him. Lottus was strong enough to do so now, far more than the demon ever had. Slowly sitting down cross-legged, the demon contemplated the saiyans words.

"I... see."

Kamae had been no different before, a will to survive, a paragon in the desire to keep his life going. But now? He felt the sickness in his body and knew it was only time. He was going to die soon. He had lost everything and everyone. Now he was just a shell of his former self. 

"Ha."

Kamae was glad if nothing else, this man was going to do what he could not. He still had to see Erebos first though. Slowly the demon let out a long drawn out breath, as if pressures had been let loose from his body. Kamae Stared up at the ceiling, feeling his body decaying from the inside out. A slow death and a painless one, could be worse. But not here.

"You are exactly what I wanted from this universe. Perhaps the saiyans were the one race I shouldn't have ignored."

Kamae stated before rolling his shoulders. He saw that Lottus was approaching and was getting ready for what he was sure was going to be a brutal beating.

"I dreamed of a mortal who could defy the shinjin, defy their death and the soul recycler. I dreamed of breaking that system down but it seems only the strong may do so. Perhaps the universe already obeyed that law and I just didn't realize."

Kamae stated thinking back on everything he did. All to escape death and now, regardless of what happened next... he was going to die. Still he had gotten his answer. The universe had a threat far bigger than him and perhaps he had a small hand to play in it. He doubted it. Still the saiyan had went beyond what Even Kamae could have Accomplished. Kamae had forsaken his own flesh to become a demon, and now he had met someone he had grown strong enough to disprove his whole reason for existing.

"If nothing else, You've put an old demons heart at ease. All this years, trying to find a mortal who saw everything as it should be. Cast off your chains beast and break the worlds down."

With the final words he sounded tired, run down and beaten. No pride left in this tired old husk. Two years of perpetual torture had broken the spirit of Kamae. Now he felt as if the torch to freedom had been passed on to someone who could continue it. His black heart swelling in pure pride at the mortal before him. Love unlike anything he had ever felt soared in his chest.

"You are the perfect mortal! Absolutely marvellous! Thousands of years of searching and you... YOU of all people. The piss ant I thought I would crush one day... LOOK at you!"

Kamae felt black tears forming in the corners of his eyes. Pouring down his broken cheeks and maw as he felt genuine joy that a mortal had been born capable of surpassing all his efforts and still seeing the truth of things. No chains should ever bind another soul, no god or limit. 

"I lost the title of a god in a damp cave two years ago. But I found it. I found the one thing in this universe that will unshackle us all."

Kamae had no idea how strong Lottus was, but he had found him. The one he had been searching for so long. Eons, centuries of culling civilizations and even bio-engineering weapons to torment mortals. To break them out of whatever rut that farmer saiyan had in his mind. Lottus could see it, perhaps all rightful saiyans could see it? No he doubted any could see the beauty that Lottus had just demonstrated. Absolute destruction of the order of things? A destroyer? A killer? All of this things was what kamae needed. 

"Kill me if you wish, I fear though death will stick this time... But... I cannot simply walk away now that I found it. The perfect entity, the mortal I deem worthy to live. Not that I could kill you even if I wanted to. I..."

Kamae knew he was going to die, oh how he wished he could see this man's journey to the end. How he craved to see if the saiyan truly was what he believed him to be. But only time would tell, and the demon would not be here to see it. Kamae saw Lottus as the beacon that all life should strive, and a smile formed on his cruel maw.
