Chapter 340: The Queen of Orange Star
"Damn you, Sirus! You promised to show me where you live, but you made me wait for so long!"
At the school gate, Elisa, Gokumi, and Broly had been waiting for quite some time before they finally saw Yuujin leisurely walking out. Annoyed, Elisa couldn't help but complain.
"Sorry, sorry, I made you wait. Let's head out now."
Yuujin laughed it off and replied.
This was probably their last day at this school. Before leaving, Yuujin had also gone to bid farewell to the principal. Though their time here was short, the principal had taken good care of them.
"Hurry up, hurry up! I still have to go home later."
Elisa urged, and Yuujin, without another word, picked her up in his arms.
"W-What are you doing, Sirus?!"
"Obviously, taking you to our place. But walking is too slow, so we'll fly instead."
Elisa was startled, and Yuujin explained calmly.
As they spoke, Yuujin, Gokumi, and Broly had already risen into the air. After glancing at the school one last time, they shot off into the sky.
"We... we're flying! We're really flying!"
Seeing the buildings below rapidly shrinking as they soared above the city, Elisa finally reacted, flailing her arms and shouting in excitement.
"Stop moving, or I'll drop you."
"Sirus! You guys can use Sky Dancing Art just like Videl?! But only powerful martial artists can do that! Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"We know a lot of things. Do we need to tell you every single one?"
Elisa was thrilled, but Yuujin responded with mild annoyance.
Thinking about it, she realized he had a point, then laughed heartily and urged him to fly faster.
Fine. As she wished, Yuujin, Gokumi, and Broly accelerated, leaving long energy trails in the sky. Elisa, overwhelmed by the speed, screamed in exhilaration.
A few minutes later, they landed in front of the Dragon Ball Tower—
"Hahaha! I, the great Elisa, have officially soared through the skies!"
"That stingy Videl! She always refused to take me flying! Just wait until I mock her tomorrow!"
Hands on her hips, Elisa laughed proudly.
Yuujin was speechless. Missy, I was the one carrying you the whole way. Don't act like you flew on your own.
As for Videl, she used to fall mid-flight herself. How could she have dared to bring Elisa along?
"Alright, Sirus, where's your place? Hurry and show me around!"
Finally remembering the main reason she came, Elisa urged again.
"Right here."
Yuujin pointed at the towering Dragon Ball Tower in front of them.
"You... you guys are with Dragon Ball Corporation?!"
"Well, something like that."
Elisa was shocked, while Yuujin casually brushed it off.
"Alright, let's head in."
Not giving Elisa a chance to ask more, Yuujin led her and Gokumi inside. Upon learning of Yuujin's return, Fist, along with her subordinates, personally came out to greet him.
"Q-Queen of Orange Star... Lady Fist?!"
Recognizing Fist, Elisa couldn't help but exclaim.
"You have a title like that, Fist?"
Yuujin asked, slightly surprised.
"It's just a name the common people gave me..."
Fist was about to say, Please, Lord Kami, do not be angry, but Yuujin cut her off—
"No need to be nervous. It's a fitting title."
Fist was the head of Dragon Ball Corporation's Orange Star City branch, essentially overseeing everything in the city under the Temple's authority. In this city, she was the unquestioned ruler—even the mayor had to respect her.
Yuujin had no issue with this. In fact, he felt it was only natural. Even a subordinate of his should be able to rule a city as its queen—this was only right. Rather than being upset, he was quite pleased.
"This is Elisa, our classmate and friend. She's our guest today."
"Come, you should join us as well."
Yuujin introduced Elisa to Fist and invited her along.
"Understood."
Fist responded respectfully, glancing at Elisa and committing her face to memory.
To be recognized as a friend and classmate by Lord Kami... this girl is quite lucky.
While Yuujin and Fist spoke, Elisa stood frozen, utterly shocked.
What's going on?! What the hell is happening?!
Why was the Queen of Orange Star, Lady Fist, being so respectful to Sirus?!
Even if Sirus and the others were with Dragon Ball Corporation, it should be the other way around!
"S-Sirus... Who are you?"
Elisa suddenly realized that she had underestimated Yuujin from the very start. She asked the same question Videl once had, her voice filled with disbelief.
"I'm just me."
"Alright, let's go up first."
Yuujin smiled, dodging the question and keeping her curiosity piqued.
Elisa was furious! Damn you, Sirus! Even if you won't tell me, I'll find out!
If even the Queen of Orange Star was so deferential to Sirus, then he must be some bigshot within Dragon Ball Corporation.
My eyes! My poor eyes!
At school, this guy acted like a total slacker, always goofing off. Elisa could easily crush him in academics. But in reality, he turned out to be some high-ranking figure! The sheer contrast made her feel completely unbalanced inside.
Following Yuujin and the others, they entered a private elevator, which quickly ascended.
At first, Elisa didn't pay much attention. But when the elevator stopped, she suddenly realized—
They had arrived at the top floor of Dragon Ball Tower!
As far as Elisa knew, even Queen Fist normally wasn't allowed up here.
Because in every Dragon Ball Tower around the world, the top floor was reserved exclusively for Dragon Ball Corporation's true masters—the almighty Lord Kami and Lady Goddess. It was where they worked or occasionally rested when visiting the mortal realm.
But now, they were here.
Which meant... which meant...
Staring at Yuujin in utter disbelief, a terrifying thought emerged in Elisa's mind—
