Lyric's POV

Very nervously, I walked over to the intimidating man, who currently was leaning on the wall with the same alien I attacked earlier clinging to him.

Hey, if he and Toppo were on the same team, they'd have to be similar, right?

(Fun fact, Jiren was actually supposed to have Toppo's personality, but they had to scrap the idea since Jiren needed a persona of his own because of the whole 'this guy needs to be super op' idea)

Before I could even step within their 2 foot radius, I felt someone grab my shoulder and pull me towards a more secluded area that was less crowded. I yelped in surprise, but the person who pulled me put his fingers to his lips.

"Dyspo?" I asked the purple bunny furry. (Uh I forgot if he was a bunny or not :p)

"Lyric whatever you do, DO NOT go into contact with that man!" He warned as I looked at him, puzzled by his words.

"Why not? He's a Pride Trooper, so he's bound to be a nice guy!" I argued. Dyspo shook his head in disagreement.

"That guy is bad news. Trust me! I've seen what he's capable of! Besides, I just met you, and you're nice and sweet. I don't want to see anyone else get hurt by Jiren..."

'Hurt by Jiren?...' I thought as I gently grabbed Dyspo's hands so that he stops talking.

"Dyspo...I appreciate your concern for me, but the past is past. Everyone has at least something in their past that they regret doing, which is why everyone..." I paused, looking in Jiren's direction.

"...Including him...deserves a second chance, don't you think?" I asked as I flashed a close-eyed smile.

Dyspo sighed. "I guess you're right...I just don't get how you can defend someone who you barely even met before!"

I chuckled, patting him on the back.

"You just gotta trust my instincts, and they are saying 'go now before Cornelia can!'"

He chuckled and gave me a sad smile. "Seriously though...be careful around him," I reassured Dyspo that I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself.

"Alright..but don't say I didn't warn you." Dyspo's playful tone turned into a serious one before leaving.

'What can be so bad about Jiren? I mean if he murdered people for a living, THEN I'd 

understand, but I don't see any murderous aura around him.'

Glancing back to Jiren, who was still conversing with Cocotte, only now did his presence intimidate me.

'Now that I have a closer look at him, I'll admit-he's very intimidating. His baldness reminds me of Saitama. His aura is much stronger now that I'm closer.'

'Are bald guys just OP? '

'I think they are.'

I look back to see Jiren and how he shifted in his black and red spandex suit. I'm surprised that his suit hasn't ripped due to his tone muscles.

Gathering all the courage I had left, I continued the path towards the two.

With each step closer to Jiren, the more I could feel his energy. I couldn't hep but feel like a magnet, and it was pulling me towards him. Is this what it feels like to approach the strongest man in the universe?

I stopped about a good 2 feet in front of them before the pink haired alien very rudely glared at me and asked, "Haven't you done enough already you brat?"
