Zaks was hoping her offer would be accepted pretty easily as it looked liked the Creature before her was in alot of pain but her hopes were not fulfilled so easily it would seem. On the other hand she considered as she bit her lip slightly while she thought for a moment how to deal with their questions before she decided on to just tell them the truth of the matter. It's not like the reason she was doing this was harmful to any of them.
“” honestly? I want to examine both you and that black flame for my own abilities. I study magical things when I come across them.””

Zaks did not reveal that she also wanted to feel fear by being near Liari. This fear was awakening something in her that she had not felt in a long time and a deep part of her wanted to feel it more. The Saiyan inside of her told her to challenge the being before her to feel the rush of the challenge and to grow stronger from the conflict. The demon half told her to dominate it or submit to it. To follow its might for that is what ultimately decided everything in this universe and that is a lesson she should be listening to. But there was one more side to all of this that was not in her blood and that was to her tribe and to her Children. It was that side that was winning at the current moment and the revelation that she could become stronger by being close to Liari was important enough to take a risk.

Suddenly the magic before all of them shattered into mist in the air no different from normal water fell over everyone but it was so light they barely even felt it. Suddenly a voice could be heard from the tree line as a huge figure came into the clearing even as the figure gave off no Ki to sense it was there. “” there is Also the fact that I want to face my fear since I am so unused to it.””

With a head tilt to Derry she spoke softly”” I am perfectly knowledgeable about demon magic since I can use it very well myself”” She would stand a decent amount of space away from the group and give a small bow to Liari as if to ask for permission to come closer to her.

The situation before them was odd in all senses of the word as not long ago they were trying to help with the destruction of the city and now they appeared as though they were friends caring for a hurting ally, which wasn't entirely false there was more than meets the eye to the situation. With one stranger looking to study the affliction to master their own techniques, they each had their own with Khyrops being the same for the entire time. Even as he was questioned about them he thought that there was no reason for him to stop telling the truth about his reasons.

"All friendships and alliances are formed from some sort of common benefit or interest, and it's no lie that by working with you I have the chance of achieving strength in both technique and form." He said as though it were nonchalant, talking about learning techniques and using the opportunity to absorb people alongside her. "Then through the same method, I should be able to hopefully give the same back to you."

After his comment, he figured that there wasn't going to be any movement from the area at the moment as they were trying to figure out their next course of action. He himself would wrap his back wings around his body as he crossed his arms, wrapping himself up as he floated into the air. It might've seemed a bit odd, but this was his reserved position, allowing himself to think while keeping himself in a position that made him feel safe. Although his orange hair would be distracting, he seemed the opposite of his appearance calm than he had been in his previous form. However, his passion still existed although more directed and internalized as he sought to come up with a plan for their little group.

Derry's comment suddenly struck a chord in his head as he heard his comment about meeting more of his kind, whether he meant demons or majins in general it made him think of the ones he had met. With most of them capable of absorption they also seemed to have a level of understanding of magic or at least some sort of connection to it. The bio-android tapped his chin for a good minute before he felt confident in his theory.

"We all seek understanding in this technique, and it seems to be causing distress in our blue friend." He said as he could be seen floating lounged in his wrapped-up stature. "It's just energy, and people like us have a different way of dealing with such threats, couldn't it be possible for you to use your own power to calm it down and maybe even eat the flames like you do everything else?"

It was just a theory, and he wasn't even sure if it would actually work, but he thought that if they started to think about it and try things they would at least be able to have somewhere to start from. He was a scientist at heart and if he found a hypothesis he would test it till he couldn't, gather the data, and then make another hypothesis to test until they understood it all. He did have an interest in magic but without any study or practice in it, this was the only way he knew how to do anything, a shortcoming that was becoming more apparent to him. He knew he would have to grow more from here and he would, this was the first step he needed to take.

Zaks studied the group that stood a little ways away from herself and judged them each carefully. Derry, while the weakest of the group, perhaps was the hardest of the three and she could also bet that he was the most perceptive. It was not lost on her slight change of demeanor at her mention of being able to use demon magic herself. She was willing to bet some good amount of money that he probably was a lot more perceptive than Zaks herself and much more in control of himself at that. “” Of my kind? I had assumed you had met one other from the flame but that sounds like you have met even more than that? Or am I wrong.??” She asked in a respectful manner. She had no intention of angering any of them as it was clear that the other two could roll Zaks up like a pancake.

Looking back, Liari allowed her KI to be released as she could not hide her KI if she wanted to use her own magic to study the black flame.Although she did not release it all and kept some in reserve. She made sure to just barely become stronger than Derry. “” Hmm Now that I am closer I see the flames a lot clearer and it is possible for me to remove it from you. Zaks didn't know healing magic as it was something she had not learned yet but that didn't mean she was Lying to Liari either as that would be a death Sentence that she really wanted to avoid if she could.

Slowly she walked closer to the group until she was within 10 feet of the group and stopped where she was and raised her left hand slowly. A small White crystal appeared in her hand as Zaks began to chant. “” Vak Sai” Using her right hand she waved it over it" " Dal ran SOT” The crystal became firmer and more real with each word the Demon spoke before with quick motion took the crystal in her right hand tightly. The strange gem Gave off no Ki and the entire time Zaks chanted she had not changed her Ki signature in the slightest adding Weight to what Liari had said about Magic being different then just another source of power. Slowly she held it out at Liari almost aiming at her if it was targeting her. “” Ahh here we go. “” She gave off a small smile at the gem in her hands before she looked up to the group again.

With a one last look at the group she spoke gently and once again bowed to Liari. “” With this I can target the Flame throughout your body and Siphon it into this Gem with your help.”” This only works if Liari willingly lets her take some of her Ki or Liari could isolate the flame herself from the rest of her body and place it in the crystal herself. Though unless she possessed magic herself she probably could not even sense the ki from the fire herself to do that.

IF Liari did accept the offer she would step forward until she could touch her slowly if allowed and start pulling the flame into crystal. Truth be told the crystal wasn't anything but a siphoning gem that could pull the flames out of Liari but could not store them itself. Zaks would be pulling the flames into herself to mesh with her own flames and the stronger of the two would destroy the other one. Normally this was dangerous but this flame was relatively weak as it had burned for so long and posed no threat to the Demon in the slightest.”” I will be straight up with you. I will have to Draw some of your Ki out that is tainted with he black Flame.`` '' Now there was nothing she could do but wait for an answer from her. She honestly could understand if she declined her offer as it could be considered dangerous giving away part of her power.

While she waited she studied Khyrop, her eyes darting his dangerous form carefully. In her Opinion he was very dangerous in a way much more dangerous than the Liari herself was. Those eyes hungered and didn't care for too much else to feed that hunger. Though Zaks had no idea what that hunger was, she thought she had caught glimpses of it when she first introduced herself and when she had used magic. Regardless she was wary of him and would keep being wary of him the entire encounter.

Although he might've been oblivious in his previous form he was rather indifferent in his current form, he had the namekian to thank for that if there was any thought given to it. Liari was displeased with his answer and while he knew he was no master of magic he assumed his answer was reasonable as a basis, it was energy so that would give some sort of understanding as to where to go from. He was a scientist, however, and he was more the type to go through rigorous testing over and over, failing in the studies to find the truth.

"I won't lie and say my knowledge is intermediary at best, and I do not know your anguish as well as you do, I just seek to push every avenue until we find an answer." He would then pause as he turned to look at Zak as they seemed to be able to have the answer. "I do understand the importance of letting experts handle their field though."

He would bow in deference to the other as he would float back to give them room, positioning himself next to Derry as he would flatten his ears back against his head and let out a yawn. It had been a long day after all, he had woken up early in the first place and it felt like they had gone from one thing to another. With all these thoughts racing through his head, the bio-android would do something unexpected of himself, he stopped thinking and he would instead silence his mind.

"I guess though things haven't gone any way I've expected at all lately, even if data suggests otherwise." He spoke to Derry as he let out a long extended sigh, changing his breathing pace as he let the meditative effects take over his body, Checking in with himself as he brought himself back into a level of calmness. "How are you doing during all this?"

With the other two doing their own little magic ritual to try and cure Liari they could sit on the side, Khyrop found Derry's life interesting but then again they were already the closest allies in the group. It only made sense that he would return to a sense of relaxation after the stress with his friend. It was weird for him to experience more feelings as time went on, it had developed from his need to survive and learn turning him from a hardwired wild animal to a thinking biological machine trying to evolve past his needs. Even though it rubbed wrong on others his desires for growth were even part of that, although it took the form of unending gnawing hunger that tormented him even as they tried to recuperate at this moment.
