DragonBall X: The Ultimate System [Re-Mastered] - Chapter 60
“No worries, guys. This is my new personal bodyguard that I have appointed not too long ago, there is no need to feel down.” She waved her hand towards the downcasted Guards. The bodyguards still felt bad then looked over Kayn, they sensed his power level which displayed only around 100 million, contempt flashed across their eyes but they said nothing.
“Alright, guys, we’ll be on our way. This way Kayn.” Kayn could see the contemptuous gazes of the guards but he didn’t care and continued to follow Athena to the Throne Room.
The palace was incredible, there were pictures of past generations on the walls. This clan didn’t care about gender and the person with the highest strength ruled, this was only for the royalty that is. Athena was next in line to be the Queen but her power level was quite lacking in strength. Originally, Athena’s brother was next in line to rule but he was ȧssassinated, leaving her next in line for rulership.
Athena and Kayn advanced towards the throne room, no one stopped her but allot of maids and guards were stunned to see Athena walking with a young man behind her. Kayn could see that they had different emotions. The maids started to gossip about the situation once Kayn and Athena were out of sight.
“Hmph, that guy must be another one of her pursuers, gross!
“How many of them are going to keep coming?
“It going to get worse once that Auction starts!
“That guy didn’t look bad at all but still, they’re all like dogs looking at a slice of fresh meat!” The maids enjoyed the gossip as they spoke their thoughts about the matter. Apparently, this happened often and many of them were used to seeing this scene.
Meanwhile, Kayn and Athena arrived at a Big Red and Gold door with Pheonix designs all over it, it reminded Kayn of his Hyperbolic time chamber door in some way. There were heavily armored guards on each end of the door, Kayn could feel that each of these guards power level were in the high billions and very low trillions, he was stunned when he noticed. The highest power level amongst the guards was 150 trillion, this particular bodyguard didn’t have a helmet on, he was an old man.
“Ah, General Ruth. How are you today, I have come to visit my father about an important matter.” The Princess spoke politely and respectfully towards The General. After all, this clan had their own personal military and he was one of the Generals of it.
“Ah, Princess, you’ve come at a good time, the king isn’t that busy today.” The General looked over at Kayn, he eyes glinted a bit, he seemed to be thinking of something. ‘Why does his face look so familiar to me, I’ve definitely seen this guy somewhere before.’ Ruth then turned back to the princess. “You may enter but who is this young man before that?
“Ah, he is my newly appointed personal bodyguard. He is also the one who helped heal my dad by giving me that pill from last time.” Athena didn’t feel that there was a need to hide it from the general such as Ruth.
“What?” Ruth looked at Kayn deeply but found that his power level was about 100 million or so and frowned. “Are you sure, this guy’s strength seems a little to low to be a bodyguard. To be qualified as a bodyguard here, in general, requires a power level of at least 500 million or more, this is to low.” Ruth spoke his mind. The pill thing seemed to have gone in one ear and out the other.
“Hmm, he is stronger than you think. My father also wants to meet him for helping him recently, so this is basically a request from my father.” Athena could vaguely see where this was going, she could see the dissatisfied look on Ruth’s face.
Ruth honestly wants to turn Kayn away seeing how weak he was but it was indeed a request from the King. “Sigh, okay, you both may enter, it is indeed his request.” Ruth didn’t hold them up any further and allow them in. The other bodyguard began to push open the huge door to allow Kayn and Athena inside. Ruth looked at Kayn one last time before turning away, how could such a low-level guy be a bodyguard, it would indeed fail once the King sees how weak he was.
Ahead of them was a man sitting on a throne, he had fiery red hair, he was dressed in Gold and Red robes. The man wore many luxurious pieces of jewelry with a crown on his head that had lots of jewels throughout it. The man had red eyes with a very handsome youthful face, this was Athena’s father, the king. Kayn could feel the strength of this guy and it was no joking matter.
‘What? His power level is in the Quadrillions!!’ Kayn was secretly shocked. This man’s power level was at least 80 quadrillion but it was suppressed as well, it was no telling what his max strength was. The elders in the area power levels were also in the quadrillions but it was much lower than the kings, theirs were around 5 to 20 quadrillion or so. However, these were great elders, so they were stronger than the regular elders who had high trillion power levels instead. Kayn couldn’t help but think that this clan was no joke and could seriously suppress universe 7 as it is now, it was no wonder they were excluded from the tournament of power, the mortals are indeed much more powerful in this universe.
The King and Elders stopped what they talking about. They all looked at Kayn and Athena who just entered the throne room. “Athena, what brings you here at this time and who is this guy? I’ve never seen him before.” The King spoke as he squinted his eyes when he looked at Kayn.
“Well, this is the person I wanted to introduce you to, he is the one who gave me the pill to heal you.” Athena said enthusiastically, she was aware that she was slightly disturbing a small meeting, but it was just them expressing their worries.
The King’s expression changed slightly when he heard what his daughter said, the Elders in the area were no different. They looked closely at Kayn to evaluate him but one elder sneered in contempt. “This kid’s power level is so low, it seems he’s only good at medicine and that’s it.” The other elder remained silent but the Kings expressed his annoyance.
“Elder Mars, mind your tongue when speaking to our guests and benefactors!” The King was very displeased with Mars, he was clearly trying acting hostile to anyone his daughter seemed to take a liking to, he wanted his son to marry the Princess but she hated his son so much.
Elder Mars didn’t say anything but he glared at Kayn, displaying his outright hostility. This Elders power level was one of the strongest here but Kayn wasn’t worried about this guy in the least. “Everyone, this little meeting ends here, I want to talk to this guess alone so you’re dismissed for now.” The Elders were surprised to hear what the King said but didn’t mind it so much, this couldn’t be the same for Elder mars.
“Why are you dismissing us for some low-class warrior whose power level is bȧrėly making it to 100 million? Is there some important matter to attend to other than his medicine making skills, other than that he’s just some trash warrior.” Elder Mars emphasized trash quite a bit, he was clearly very displeased with Kayn.
“Elder Mars! Are you going against my orders!?” The King’s Ki skyrocketed as he was enraged to hear the disrespectful words of Mars. Everyone in the room facial expression changed seeing the king’s anger.
“N..No, I would dare! If you would excuse me, I will take my leave now!” Elder Mars started to sweat and moved, walked pass Kayn and Athena in huge strides, he didn’t forget to give Kayn a deadly glare before leaving, he was then accompanied by the other elders who left right after him. Kayn didn’t care about his glare. If this man made a move on him, he would surely attack back to kill, it didn’t matter to Kayn, he was immortal anyway.
Soon the room was empty and only the King, Athena, and Kayn were left. Seeing that the king didn’t speak, Athena spoke first. “Dad, he stronger than what you think, he is good at hiding his power level so he only looks weak on the outside.” Athena tried to defend Kayn’s case, she knew on this planet that power meant everything to the clans.
“Haha, little girl, you sure are working hard to defend him, what does this mean?” The king looked at his daughter and gave a playful smile. Athena couldn’t help but blush and put her head down, she wanted to say something but the king spoke again.
“You dont need to defend him, I have good senses and can tell he is clearly hiding his power. Most people dont’ have senses like this but I’ve trained myself well for this. It wouldn’t matter anyway since he had healed me with that super pill not too long ago.” The king was well trained in his Ki sense and could easily see that Kayn was hiding quite all of his power. Kayn was a little surprised, the last person who could see through his fake facade was Whis and Beerus back then.
“Kid, I am extremely grateful for the healing pill, I hear that you’re going to be my daughter’s personal bodyguard, right?” The king tried to confirm.
“Yes, I am going to be your daughter bodyguard. She did trick me after all.” Kayn put on a sad face to express his grief.
“You! I didn’t do such a thing!” Athena wanted to punch Kayn so bad at this moment but held back in front of her dad. Her face turned red, she did recall the contract inside the carriage when she told him not to read it, this was clearly trying to trick and con him.
“Haha, you actually tricked an innocent bystander, Where did I go wrong!?” The king’s face also changed, Kayn had given the king a wink to follow along with him to attack the princess. Strangely, he winked back and went along with it.
“D…Dad, I.. I” Athena was speechless as she looked at Kayn sad face, she could hold back anymore and swung her fist towards Kayn face. Kayn, however, wasn’t slow and dodged, he then pretended that he was surprised and fell towards her.
“Oh,~no,~I~slipped!” Kayn said in a sarcastic way, he then took this chance to grope her bȯȯbs. This would in term or in any circumstance earn someone the death penalty. The king’s face turned green while Athena’s face was changing between blue and red, then eventually settling with purple.
“You little rascal, You Dare!” The King was furious, who in their right mind had the audacity to grope his daughter and worst of all, right in front of him! “Boy, are you sick of living!?
“No, no, it was a mistake, I tried to dodge and slipped, falling toward those melons, No I mean her ċhėst!” The king’s mouth was twitching so hard that it looked like his mouth was dancing, the princess calmed down, she had the urge to grab Kayn and teach him a lesson.
“Dad, calm down, he slipped, after all, so let continue the evaluation.” The princess seemed to think nothing more of it and wanted to continued with what they were talking about. She also most attacked Kayn again when he mentioned melons on “mistake!”
The king gritted his teeth and calmed down, Kayn was still a guess who healed him with a power pill recently so he gave it up. “Alrighty then, I will formally introduce my self. My name is Archer, the King of this city and leader of the Heavenly Pheonix Clan.
“My name is Kayn, I am a traveler of the universe.” Kayn introduced himself.
“Okay, Kayn, come over here. I want to check your true power level and see just how strong you are, you should be around 17 to 19, right?” Archer believed Kayn’s power level should be in the high millions or even the low billions, he was so young and there was no way he could have a crazy high power level.
“Yes, I am 18 years old.” Kayn replied
“Okay, that sounds, right. Come over here, this scale will measure your true power level, it will give us an accurate number, so power yourself up to max.” The king wasn’t all that eager to see Kayn strength that would probably bȧrėly pass 800 million or may even be less.
Athena smiled, she knew how strong Kayn was and was eager to see the exact number. “Go on, let’s see how strong you are.” Athena said
Kayn went to the scaling device and stood on it. The king nodded and turned it on. “Make sure you power up to your maximum.” The kings said
*156 million
*200 million
*400 million
*600 million
*900 million
*2 Billion
*50 billion
*100 Billion
*500 Billion
“Impossible!” The King couldn’t beleive what he was seeing! A kid of the age of 18 had a power level of 800 billion. Strangely, it didn’t stop, it kept rising. “This can’t be happening, is it broken!?” The king couldn’t help but evaluate the machine to see if it had a flaw.
*1 trillion
*2 trillion
*4 trillion
*5.5 trillion
It suddenly stopped and the king sighed in relief. If his power level kept rising, he wasn’t sure if his heart could take it, he could vaguely sense that he might have cardiac arrest if went beyond 10 trillion. If he only knew Kayn’s real power, then what would he think then?
Athena’s mouth was open the whole time, she couldn’t believe how high his strength was! That young master of the heavenly turtle clan didn’t understand who he was messing with! She knew his strength was in the trillions but she expected like 1.1 trillion or so.
“Am I done with the evaluation?” Kayn lazily said. The king was silent for a bit, he kept looking at Kayn like he was a monster. If this kid was allowed to continue growing then how strong would he be in the future?
“Yes, Your evaluation is finished, you most definitely qualify to be her bodyguard.” Archer’s eyes brightly looked at Kayn and continued. “Your clothes color scheme will have to change though, it will have to be red and Black with our symbol on them to let people know that you’re one of us.” The king approved of Kayn just like that.
“Hehe, No problem.” Kayn then used his Creation Ability and changed his color scheme of clothing to red and black along with a few Pheonix clan symbols on it. He wore a golden shoulder armor plate on his newly created clothing, he basically decided to dress like a Yardratian with this scheme, he no longer dressed like Goku black.
“Wow, it looks so good, you have a really good fashion sense.” Athena approved of Kayn way of dressing, the king was no different and like what he decided to wear.
“Thank you, guys!” Kayn smiled and said
“It is true! You are officially a member of our Pheonix clan!” The king happily announced to Kayn and Athena. “You guys are dismissed, I need to handle some arrangements. We will be received guess in about a month from other royal clans who want to participate in the auction 2 months from now.” The king stated as he went back to sit on his throne, he looked tired.
Both Kayn and Athena nodded. They then left just like that. They were heading to the Training grounds.
