<span class="mu-s">"Hold on."</span> Beerus said, stopping the Loquas in their tracks. The two of them glanced back at him, unnerved.
<span class="mu-s">"A deity doesn't get demoted all the time. There's something off about what you've told me. You must have done something to provoke the ire of North Kai. Even though you've been promoted, your people still look up to you. So what is it? What did you tell North Kai?"</span>
"Er... Uhhhur..."
The elderly Loquas held his breath, trying to think of what he should say.
"It is what I did that made King Kai unsatisfied with my position."
<span class="mu-i">"He doesn't usually look down on anything besides outright threatening to destroy a planet or bring terror. What could it be?"</span>
"..."
Paihmon breathed in and exhaled.
"We assist the Planet Trade Organization by supplying their army."
<span class="mu-i">"That's Frieza's Empire then."</span>
<span class="mu-s">"Ughhh! Why is it always Frieza Frieza Frieza! Frieza this, Frieza that..."</span>
"Well," The voice of Shin suddenly came through the air; "I wonder WHY that heartless tyrant is alive and well and still running amok amongst the cosmos freely, even after he almost caused Earth to be destroyed at Broly's hands!"
Beerus grumbled.
"We were never attacked by the Frieza Force. Before that could happen, I intervened and negotiated a deal with the Planet Trade Organization on behalf of the people. I admit, I acted without their consent, but my timely actions are what spared Planet Loqu devastation." Paihmon said, raising his hands, wracked with guilt; "Our planet is ripe with a crystal compound that could be crushed down into a stimulant drug. This drug, once taken, seems to enhance everything. A person's physique, their movement, reaction, thinking, and even control over energy to absurd levels for a time. As you can imagine, the Frieza Force now enjoys plenty of use of it thanks to our exports. In return for supplying them with units, we get to stay independent, and they give us counterfeit funds for the galactic exchange. We use those to... pay our ridiculously high taxes to the Galactic King."
