DragonBall X: The Ultimate System [Re-Mastered] - Chapter 62
“Okay, as long as it can make me stronger then I am okay with it.” She stopped for a bit and continued. “Dont try anything perverted either.” Kayn scratched his nose and reached out his hand, grabbing her hand.
“I have never used this on anyone before but I know that this will increase your Ki control, you can train at least 3 times faster. It takes time to train Ki control, so it can’t be trained overnight or in just one go.” Kayn explained
“Okay, I am ready whenever you are.” Athena nodded and readied herself.
“Alrighty then, here we go!” Kayn’s Ki rushed through her arm and into her body, she could feel the warmth of Kayn’s energy circulating through her body. His Ki level was quite high for a mortal. After all, the limit for moral in Ki control was SSS Rank and most of them never achieved that.
Author Note: Its S, S+, S++, SS, SSS, in this order of Ranks. It would require Divine Ki to breakthrough from SSS Rank to Z rank. In some special cases, very talented people can reach Z ranked Ki, like Jiren for example, sorry for the spoiler. Super Saiyan 4 would require S rank or above as mentioned much earlier in the novel some time ago.
Kayn let her go as Golden energy fluctuated around her body, it seeped deep into her body and she could feel the change taking place. Kayn had advanced her Ki control because of his high Ki control which allowed her breakthrough quite allot. He would have used this on Sasha if he could, but he was just an A rank around that time which wasn’t good enough. It was getting harder to rank up his Ki control these days, so any chance he got to rank it up, the better.
“It will take some time to fully absorb this Ki, so I’ll have to relax for a bit.” Athena knew she had to sit down and let this energy absorb a bit before fighting or she could ruin the flow. She then went to the spectator area to take a seat. Kayn had sensed that she had fire Like Ki, it was even hotter than his Ki laws, no, more advanced. Kayn was suspicious when he was watching her fight the puppet earlier, but after boosting her Ki control, he confirmed his suspicions. This totally left Kayn dumbfounded, what could be higher than his Ki Laws?
“System, you felt that right? What kind of Fire like Ki does she have?” Kayn asked the system immediately. Kayn was eager to know, it was quite strong. If she had the proper training then she could truly go far, like really far!
[These fluctuations come from one thing! Her ability is beyond Ki Laws, after all, they are simply laws that need to be followed!]
“Okay, I understand! So what is it called, I must know, is it because of her Pheonix clans or something?” Kayn was eager to know, maybe he could learn this kind of thing.
[What she has is called Fire Ki Rule! Basically the rules of Fire itself, it is the highest! She even has a chance of learning Divine Ki with it, which would make her even more stronger!]
“What? So this is much stronger than the laws?” Kayn most definitely wanted to learn this and couldn’t help but ask.
“System, search for the Ki Rules, I must check them out!” Kayn asked right away.
[These innate abilities are not on sale! To get them, you must upgrade the system to its final version, which is version 3!]

Somewhere in the palace
A grey-haired man wearing orange-red Pheonix robes sat alone to himself, at this moment a man walked in. “Reporting!” The man said respectfully.
“What is it? Tell me now!” This man was Elder Mars
“That guy from before was accepted as a bodyguard by the King. He is now the official personal bodyguard of the Princess.” The man said. His eyes were filled with disgusted just thinking about that weakling Kayn.
“What!? That trash was actually approved by the King!?” The man’s eyes exuded killing intent. “The king has turned into a complete fool, how could he allow a trash weakling to guard her highness?” Mars was very dissatisfied with Kayn. Although Kayn never said anything to him, he could tell that Kayn regarded him as a nobody and simply ignored him, he could easily see between the lines, so he knew this was how it was.
“Pass my order, spread the news that the princess has an almighty and powerful bodyguard who is trying to get close to the princess, if you know what I mean.” If he couldn’t directly cause trouble for Kayn then he could have others do it for him, this was indirectly causing trouble for him, a borrowed knife as they called it.
“Yes, great elder, I will have many people spread rumors about it.” The man agreed with a sinister smile, he couldn’t wait to see the trouble Kayn would face.
“Good, now go on, quickly.” Mars waved his hand to dismiss the man and the man bowed, leaving just like that. As soon as the man left a shadow appeared behind him, he wore all black and his face was covered so no one could see his face.
“You know that we, the Order of Assasins must keep things like that private. We will never tell anyone about our customers.” The man said in a cold voice
“This is true. Last time you guys failed to ȧssassinate the King! You must find a way to kill him, then at that moment I will rise to power and become the new king, haha!” Elder Mars laughed evilly, he had hired these ȧssassins to kill the king but they failed. They sent their higher-ups to personally ȧssassinate the kings since he was so strong.
“No worries! We have been keeping tabs on the king. We were going to send someone to ȧssassinate him while he was in bed but he was healed all of a sudden.” The man expressed his annoyance. They failed to kill him but heavily injured him, only for him to be suddenly healed fully.
“It’s that little medicine boy! Perhaps we can capture him and enslave him, turning him into our personal medicine slave!” Mars grinned and said
“Hmm, if that happens, then you’ll have to give us a cut as well. We could at least trade something for such powerful medicine.” The man in black like the idea and chimed in. A lot of his people got hurt during some rough ȧssassination missions and these pills would be the key to greater success.
“All in do time, right now he is a bodyguard to the princess so we’ll wait a bit.” Mars said that and the man in black started think for a moment as suspicion crept in his mind.
“Mars, I am curious about something. On the day the princess return you said she had that pill, right?” The black cloaked man asked
“Yes, she was given the pill by her newly appointed bodyguard. Why do you ask?” Mars said
“Ten of our Elite warriors went missing after persuing the princess, but she came back unharmed and you even said her bodyguards were wounded when they returned.” The cloaked man’s face underneath his clock turned dark.
“It simple, I think that new bodyguard has something to do with our missing ȧssassins. I want you to question the bodyguards on what exactly happened.” The bodyguards had reported an ȧssassination attempt but they were all wounded and their power levels couldn’t compete with any of the people they sent.
“Haha, you’re overthinking too much. A weak medicine boy that could defeat high billion power leveled guards!? This is simply too funny, HAHAHA!” Mars laughed like never before, how could some low-level medicine kid compare?
“You must not know about the ability to suppress one’s power level, he could be fronting. Make sure you get more details about the situation, I’ll be taking my leave now. I’ve said what I wanted to say.” The man jumped out of the window and disappeared without warning.
“Tsk, He’s worried about some trashy bodyguard! Well, whatever, it won’t hurt to question them later.” Mars said after he was done laughing.

Back to Kayn and Athena
Kayn continued to practice with Athena throughout the days. Over the course of these days, news soon spread throughout the city and eventually all around the continent. It became a big hit with all the small families in the city and of course, the citizens as well. However, this didn’t sit well at all with those young masters and even some young miss’ of other families. They all had declared that they would beat Kayn and teach him a good lesson.
They were furious and really wanted to rush to the Pheonix Palace to find and cripple Kayn, some even came but were turned away by the guards. During this time, Kayn was training with Athena, she had beaten the white Crystal puppet at this time. Many disciples and members of the Pheonix clan wanted to find trouble with Kayn but he would simply teleport to the princesses room and drop her off then he would teleport to his room afterward. Kayn teleported allot and avoided many troublesome encounters from them but it would only work for so long before they caught him slipping.
Athena, on the other hand, was angry to find that someone had spread such a rumor, they were clearly making trouble for Kayn but she didn’t know who it was. However, their training continued, he wanted to pit her against the blue puppet this time, this puppet was much smarter and stronger than the white puppet. The puppet looked the same as its counterpart but was blue and had sapphires for eyes.
This puppet mainly used Kamehameha, Bigbang, instant transmission, and galactic donut for its move set. Athena was learning every time she fought and started to utilize Ki base attacks more often, at this point she had expanded her ki pool, so she could use much more of it, this was also because her Ki control increased allot. At this time a month and a half passed just like that, she was finally able to catch and defeat the blue puppet.
The strategy of this puppet was quite annoying just from the move set it had alone. It liked to utilize Galactic donut the most to catch her. Kayn put the puppet away with a smile on his face, he honestly didn’t expect her to beat it so soon. The next time he would have her fight the red puppet which liked to utilize speed and close combat the most, it should give her run for her money.
“Goodness, it about time I beat that annoying thing! That ring attack was pissing me off the most!” She couldn’t help but feel excited inside, this training was actually working. Athena’s power level was now 490 million, she grew quite allot during this time.
“Haha, seeing you run like a rat was the best scene anyone could ask for!” Kayn laughed and ridiculed, she ran all over the ring to escape the barrage of Galactic donut rings launched at her. She often got caught by them since there were so many of them and was eliminated swiftly. The blue puppet had high Ki control and could control a lot of Galactic donut rings.
“Jerk, you like to see people in misery, Hmph!” Athena glared at Kayn, she already knew he was enjoying the show without him even having to say it. He would often jeer at her misery from the side or warn her after she was sneak attacked and would laugh when she got caught.
“Ah, relax, you won right? Let’s end today’s training session and get something to eat, I’m starving.” Kayn really liked the food on this planet, it was just as good as earth’s food but earth was slightly ahead in this field.
“Yeah, I am hungry myself, let’s go.” Athena nodded in agreement, she was running and flying around like a madwoman so she was quite hungry herself. They both were about to teleport away but at that moment, her door was push opened and multiple figures walked in.
