(Multiple Hours Later)
PYUUU!
'This is where my clone is?!'
I grimaced slightly as I teleported outside Launch's house, a very large building that sat comfortably in a green hillside, a few miles away from West City.
I closed my eyes, my Ki Sense creating a mental heatmap inside my head.
I could see a large muscular figure standing in the center of the Living Room in the building while a small feminine figure stood closely to him, apparently touching his biceps and ab muscles.
'This guy'
I didn't knock on the door, quickly checking my surroundings before flexing my Aura.
Lightning crackled across the surface of my body, my temperature exploding as a majestic purple aura was released from my body, like lava from a volcano, rushing outward with great vigor and intensity.
Immediately my clone was alarmed, shaking her off and glaring menacingly at the door before quickly approaching it.
I opened my eyes as he opened the door, his jaw dropping as he saw me.
"You're getting absorbed"
That was last thing he heard as his body de-stabilized, becoming fluid Ki and flowing into my form.
'Way too irresponsible'
While it was true I was a hot-blooded heterosexual male, romantic relationships were not something a wise man stumbled into, especially when finances weren't yet available.
There would be an appropriate time where I could entertain all the women across the universe but such a time had not yet started.
A few seconds later, Launch came quickly to the door with a worried frown, her cheeks still flushed.
"Whaa! Wh-When did you change?" she asked with confusion.
My expression softened as the memories of Launch feeling me up ran through the forefront of my mind.
"Sorry for the confusion, you were speaking to one of my clones," I said bluntly.
To further illustrate the point I stepped back and split off into two clones.
Launch's eyes widened and her jaw dropped, completely bewildered.
I fused back with my clone immediately, speaking fast.
"Cloning is a technique that is possible with Ki, and it was something I used a lot so that I could develop my strength faster," I explained. "Thank you for your hospitality," I said with a slight bow, showing some respect.
I could see the cogs turning in Launch's brain, my words shocking but fitting in with everything she knew about me so far.
"I see...if that's the case, d-do you have to go now?" she asked, a hint of sadness in her voice.
Her words pricked my insides, a strong to desire to comfort her pounding at my psyche.
This woman was dangerous.
'It would be wise to keep my distance'
For some reason, this specifically was a problem.
It was easy for me to forget that Majins were emotionally volatile creatures and although I wasn't fully Majin, I had definitely inherited some of their tendencies.
Somehow, I managed to go through training with little slip-ups, for the most part emotionally regulating extremely well.
'Although to be fair, I was by myself through pretty much all that time'
Launch was unbelievably feminine, consistently provoking severe masculine reactions from me. For that reason, hanging around her for any great length would lead to a very predictable conclusion.
The longer I considered the matter, the more Launch pouted and the worse her expression became, the stronger the urge to comfort became.
I relented.
'I'll be careful'
"I can stay for a little while"
"Yay!"
My body became soft, softer than it had ever been as she smiled at me, quickly grabbing my arm and dragging me back into her house.
FYUUUM!
I could sense the great danger lurking in my insides, a storm of passion on the verge of overwhelming me.
I didn't take any chances.
The only thing to do was to tap in to Ultra Instinct for a split-second, a micro-dose of the transformation suppressing the emotions that rumbled inside me.
Launch sat me down in her Living Room, completely oblivious as to the utter chaos unfolding in my mind.
"I-I'll having something whipped up in a second, j-just wait for me there!" she declared hurriedly, her blue hair bouncing as she left the room.
I exhaled sharply, the stress building up on my body.
'What am I doing here?'
I could quite clearly tell what was happening.
Any time Launch came close to me her Ki spiked and given that she was so thrilled to have me alone with her in her house, there were only really a handful of ways this situation could resolve.
And like a magnet, my own body was reacting to her presence, urging me to bond with her in ways that didn't seem sensible.
'What should I do?'
The bulk of my mental focus, ever since appearing in this world, was to develop strength quickly, something I had succeeded at. I had also contemplated some of the key resources and tools I would need to develop and acquire in order to best protect myself and other planets.
I hadn't really given much thought anything else besides that.
'I shouldn't overcomplicate it'
To say I wasn't attracted to Launch was to assert that there was no sun in the sky, a completely nonsensical notion. That being the case, it didn't seem right to tear off our clothes and totally give in to our desires.
My rational mind was burdened with a great sense of responsibility, understanding that Launch could easily be roped into any kind of emotional outburst I experienced if I was too careless.
My mind was troubled for long, all the enhancements and modifications that came with Baby's superior thinking seemingly of no use on this topic.
I pre-emptively micro-dosed Ultra Instinct as Launch emerged wearing an apron that clung closely to her form, a steaming bowl of ramen soup in her hands, laying it on the table ahead of me.
"It's hot," she said, her cheeks flushed as she met my eyes.
When I saw her again, the conclusion I should have already come to was so obvious it was embarrassing.
"Th-Thank you"
I struggled to maintain composure as she stared at me expectantly, waiting for me to try some.
I sampled a spoonful.
'It's great!'
My body immediately softened, loosing all sense of rigidity and nearly collapsing as intense flavor and soft warmth washed over me.
The taste was seriously better than anything I had ever eaten before, probably due to some fictional spices that only existed in this world. The wonderful sensation had completely caught my off-guard, my concentration broken as emotion swelled inside of me.
'I don't care anymore'
"Marry me!" I blurted out, facing her.
Launch's face lit up like a Christmas Tree, avoiding my eyes.
"Eeeh!? I-Is it that good?" she questioned.
"I'm serious, I want you, all of you," I declared without hesitation.
Launch squirmed on her seat, her breathing becoming heavy as she looked at me with a flustered expression.
"A-Are you serious?"
"Absolutely," I responded, continuing to eat. "While I can't promise you'll be the only woman in my house, I can assure you peace and prosperity beyond your wildest dreams if you marry me," I said, my voice growing confident and assertive.
She looked at me with visible interest, to the extent where I had to use another sharp burst of Ultra Instinct to suppress the reaction of my body but she shook her head and exhaled, calming down alongside me.
"I-I need to know you better, first, I-I can't just marry a stranger"
Such a thing was obvious, even to me, but that conclusion was visibly painful for both of us.
'Martial Arts is really good for your attractiveness'
It was easy to forget but my body had become a tower of masculinity over time, formidably and majestically constructed, more than half the reason why Launch was struggling to maintain composure.
"What do you want to know?".
She exhaled again, truly coming down and making eye contact with me.
"Who are you?"
"I am Kaza, a Majin who was born on Earth"
She chuckled slightly, an inquisitive smile flowing.
"Oh? You're not a human?"
"No, while I look like one, my biology is radically different"
"Is that why you're so...big...and...strong and how you know all of those techniques?"
'Keep composure'
"Yes and no, I'm able to grow a lot faster but technically it's possible to be just as strong as me if you're a human"
Maybe after a few centuries.
"Where were you born here on Earth?"
"In a rural forest near Mt Paozu"
"How old are you?"
It didn't really make sense to say a few days.
"Twenty one"
"When is your birthday?"
I smiled.
"A few days ago"
"Oh!! H-Happy belated Birthday!"
'She's so sweet'
She had to be protected at all costs, my decision to marry her only making more sense.
"What are some of your long-term goals?"
"I want to take over the Earth and become King of the World"
Launch stared at me blankly before laughing, the sound music to my ears.
"W-Well that's quite ambitious, are you going to use your clones?"
"Nah, I've got some scientist friends that will help me build robots, they're going to make it really easy," I explained.
Launch's expression soured fast, provoking a hint of worry in me.
"Who are your scientist friends?"
"Dr Gero and Dr Wheelo, they used to work for the Red Ribbon Army"
Her nose crinkled and she sneezed, her expression tightening.
"Whatcha doin' screwing around with the Red Ribbon Army?" she said aggressively.
I didn't fold.
"They have a lot of smart guys that can help me so I basically took over the organization"
Her eyes narrowed.
"What does that mean?"
I sat up and faced her, keeping a soft smile.
"I found and captured the Commander, the two top Generals as well as the Head Strategist, forcing them to disband the Army," I explained emphatically. "Then I scooped up all the researchers and made them work for me"
Her expression softened.
"Y-You really captured the Commander!?"
"Yeah, he wasn't that strong"
"Where'd you put him?"
"I left him with the Researchers, they're going to hand him over to the World Government"
"Dang it! If I woulda known, I would've pumped that bum bastard full of lead!"
"What makes you say that?"
Launch exhaled, finally releasing her grip on her apron which she had scrunched up.
"I was a kid soldier, the Red Ribbon Army tore down my hometown, killin' all the adults and grown folk where I lived," she confessed quietly. "And it was all because of that demon, Red, he worked us kids to the bone, I only escaped because some pervy General thought he could get lucky," she said bitterly.
"I'm sorry you went through that"
"It's fine, that's why I'm tough as steel now," she said quickly.
I chuckled slightly as she just glossed over her backstory, flexing her arms to show that she really was strong.
I didn't really notice it before but in addition to having feminine hips and curves, she was also in amazing shape, her muscles present and well-defined.
"But yeah, prison isn't enough, you should've killed that scumbag," she said venomously.
She shook her head, thinking momentarily in her mind before bluntly confessing the truth.
"I'm just gonna be honest, you're super hot and I wouldn't mind spending a few nights with you," she confessed bluntly, making me choke on my soup. "But I need to know you better before I can marry you, even with all your special techniques, I can't just rush that, you know?"
I exhaled gently, my mood lowered as she shot down my proposal.
"I understand," I said, putting the bowl down, rising to my feet.
"Wait! Wait! That doesn't mean you should go!" she blurted quickly.
Her reddened face looked even more beautiful with her blonde hair, another micro-burst of Ultra Instinct needed to suppress the storm of passion brewing inside of me.
"You're welcome to stay as long as you want," she said, avoiding my eyes.
I grinned.
'That answer is just as good as yes'
