Feel Free To Call Me Anything You Like, But Make Sure To Pay Up

Thirteen felt as if his body was floating.

He was very familiar with this sensation, for this was neither the first nor probably the last time it would happen.

Opening his eyes, he found himself in the familiar Celestial Realm, where the Laplace Demon and The One were waiting for him to regain consciousness.

But before the two powerful beings could talk to him, Thirteen managed to ask them a question first.

"How is Cranky alive?" Thirteen asked.

The corner of Laplace Demon's lips twitched, not expecting that such would be the first question the teenage boy would ask him.

"Actually, Cranky never died," Laplace Demon replied before snapping his fingers.

A projection then appeared in front of Thirteen, showing him hugging the Honey Badger, whom he thought had died while protecting him.

Laplace Demon then made the replay speed up a bit until the part where Thirteen fought against the Majin King, Orochi.
