{King Kai's Planet}

"Huff… Huff…" King Kai slowly brought his breath under control.

"You okay? Lord Kai," I asked worriedly while patting his back.

"Yes, Huff… I'm Okay," King Kai replied and stood straight.

"Huuuu," King Kai breathed out, and then looked at me seriously, "What are you? How can you be this good at comedy?"

'Those were only lame jokes, I don't even want to think about what would have happened if I had told him some actual funny jokes,' I thought with a grim feeling.

"Ahaha, it's a natural talent, Lord Kai," I replied with an awkward laugh.

"True, you are indeed a gifted individual," King Kai said while nodding.

"It was you, right? The sudden Ki burst that appeared yesterday was yours," King Kai said with a knowing smile.

"Yes, it was me, I ate an Ensenji and my power increased so suddenly that I was not able to keep it under control," I explained with a flustered smile.

"Oh, an Ensenji, where did you get one from? It's a Yemma-only fruit," King Kai asked curiously.

"I got that in return for a gift from Lord Yemma," I replied.

"Oh, good for you," King Kai said while nodding.

"Lord Kai, about my training, when shall we start," I asked him excitedly.

"Ehehe, yeah, about that, I don't think I will be able to train you, as you're already so strong," King Kai confessed.

"What! Then did I come here for nothing?" I was shocked at his revelation.

"Oh, you're misunderstanding, I said I won't be able to train you, but I can still teach you techniques," King Kai clarified.

"You see, my training requires the use of my planet's high gravity, but seeing that you can easily move in high gravity, my training just won't work for you," King Kai explained.

"I see, by the way, Lord Kai, how do you train your students?" I asked him.

"Hehehe, it's a very effective method," King Kai said smugly, "I make them catch my pet monkey Bubbles in this high gravity, and because catching him requires a lot of hard work, it also helps to increase their strength,"

"I see, and what about after Bubbles is caught?" I inquired.

"After that, you can play smash the Hopper, hnnn hehe hahaha," King Kai snickered, "Next phase is to hit my attendant Gregory with Hammer,"

"How would hitting your attendant with a hammer help in training?" I asked curiously.

"Hehe, first of all, my attendant is super fast, and second the hammer I will provide will be much heavier than normal," King Kai explained, "With these conditions, phase 2 of training becomes tougher than the previous one,"

"Hmm, I get it now, I think I can still train with the help of Bubbles," I said as I increased the gravity around me to 40 times, which after being added to the current gravity turned to 50 times, "With this, I can train using your method,"

"Did you just?" King Kai muttered with shock.

"Yes," I nodded.

"Hahaha, you truly are a gifted kid," King Kai said happily while nodding.

"Okay, if you want you can monkey around with Bubbles, hnn, hehehehe," King Kai snickered, "But what about Gregory, do you not want to hop around with him? Hehehehe,"

I sighed at his attempt at satire, "I just don't want to hop around to try to smash him like a bug,"

"Hnn Hahahahah, smash like a bug, Hehehehehe," King Kai started laughing, "Oh, your so funny,"

"Agghh, how dare you look down on me?" I heard a high-pitched cry.

"I, Gregory, Lord Kai's strongest attendant, will teach you a lesson," Another high-pitched cry sounded.

I looked toward the source of the sound and saw a bright orb of light coming straight towards me at high speed.

I tried to look carefully and saw that inside the orb of light was a small humanoid cricket-shaped being.

I quickly moved sideways and dodged Gregory. I am

After missing me, Gregory turned around in the air, and said angrily, "You got lucky this time, but I will get you in the next,"

I smirked and gestured for him to come at me, Gregory's anger increased because of my taunting, and he quickly covered himself in white light.

"Aaaaaaah," Gregory screamed angrily as he darted toward me.

As Gregory was about to reach me, I quickly created a baseball bat in my hand and swung it straight toward Gregory. The bat connected to Gregory and he got sent flying off into the sky.

"Moonshot," I yelled and chuckled.

"Hnnn, HAHAHAHAHA," King Kai started rolling on the grass.

{20 Minutes Later}

We were sitting inside King Kai's house, drinking tea.

"This isn't over human, I will have my revenge," Gregory declared.

I sighed and then said, "Listen, Gregory, I am literally 100 times stronger than you, so how about we remain in peace during my stay here, I just want to train in peace,"

"I… You… Fine, human, I will give up on my revenge on you because you are Lord Kai's new student, but I will still keep an eye on you to make sure that you don't cause any problems," Gregory said, dejected.

"Oh, thank you, mighty Lord Gregory," I said with obvious fake praise.

"Hehe, good, you do know what is good for you, human," Gregory said while raising his chin with pride.

"Yeah, Yeah, I do," I nodded, and then looked towards King Kai, "Lord Kai, can you help me out with something,"

"Yes, what is it? Is there something bugging you? Hnn hehe hehe," King Kai snickered at his pun.

"Yeah, I am trying to contact my home using Telepathy, but I am not able to do so, do you know the reason behind it?" I inquired.

"Hehe, yes, it's simply because you're not able to cross through the barrier between Worlds," King Kai answered.

"Oh, and why am I not able to do that?" I asked curiously.

"Because your mastery of Telepathy is low," King Kai answered.

"I see, so I need to practice more," I said feeling dejected.

"Haha, don't worry, if you want I can help you to contact your family," King Kai said happily.

"That's great, let's do this," I said excitedly.

"Okay, come and place your hand on my back," King Kai instructed me.

I followed his words and placed my hand on his back.

"Okay, who do you want to contact first?" King Kai asked.

"Let's contact my Master Kami first, he lives on The Lookout," I answered.

"Okay, Kami on the Lookout," King Kai nodded.

King Kai's antennas started twitching, and then yellow sparks appeared around them.

I felt a connection with him, and then suddenly I felt a connection with a third person.

[Master Kami?] I said in confusion.

[Ahh, who?] Kami asked, shocked.

[Master, it's me, Arlic, I wanted to inform you that I have been accepted as a student by Lord Kai,] I explained happily.

[Haha, I knew you would be successful, congratulations, my boy,] Kami said with a hearty laugh.

[It… it can't be,] King Kai stuttered with shock.

[What happened, Lord Kai?] I asked, confused.

[Your Master Kami, he is a Namekian,] King Kai revealed.

[Me, a Namekian?] Kami muttered, surprised.

[But I have been on Earth my entire life, how can I be a Namekian?] Kami responded.

[No, you are a Namekian, I recognized you the moment I saw you,] King Kai asserted.

[Moreover, you are a Namekian survivor, and could potentially be the last surviving Namekian,] King Kai affirmed.

[What!] Kami and I both exclaimed in surprise.

[But, if I am a Namekian, then how did I arrive on Earth?] Kami inquired.

[Long ago, your home Planet Namek went through a cataclysmic climate shift, and until now I believed that all Namekians died in that catastrophe,] King Kai explained.

[However, it seems you were sent off to Earth before the climate shift, making you a survivor of the Namekian race,] King Kai said seriously.

[Lord Kai, are you sure that I am the only Namekian survivor?] Kami asked with doubt.

[Yes, you are, I had inspected Namek after its climate started getting normal, and I did not discover any living beings there at that time,] King Kai clarified.

[Lord Kai, what if some Namekians went to live underground to survive? Master Kami once told me that he only needs water for sustenance,] I asked King Kai.

[And what if just like Master Kami some other Namekians were sent off to other planets?] I raised another question.

[Ugh… you are right, that could be a possibility,] King Kai said as he lowered his head.

[By the way, I have a question, why do you not remember anything about your origin, Kami?] King Kai asked, confused.

Kami sighed and replied, [I lost my memories in my childhood, so I don't know anything about my origin, until now, I considered myself an Earthling as well,]

[I see, that explains everything,] King Kai said while nodding, [I think I should take Arlic's advice and check out Namek,]

[Yeah, that would be great, if Namekians are still alive, Master Kami can unite with his race again,] I said excitedly.

[Yes, let me check,] King Kai said and pulled out a book named 'address' from his pocket.

[Okay, Namek is in that direction,] King Kai mumbled and his antennas started twitching hard.

[Ahh, got it,] King Kai exclaimed happily.

[Supreme Kai Almighty, Arlic was right, Namekians are still alive, although there are only about a hundred of them, they survived the calamity,] King Kai cried out in shock.

[What! My race is still alive?] Kami said, surprised.

[Haha, yes, they are still alive, let me connect to their leader, let us talk to him,] King Kai said excitedly.

[Hello, Namekian Elder, can you hear me?] King Kai said with a smile.

[Yes, I can hear you, may I know who you are and why have you contacted me?] Namekian Elder replied.

[Hehe, I am King Kai, and I am the supervisor of the north section of Universe,] King Kai introduced himself.

[Forgive me for my impudence Lord Kai, my name is Guru, and I am the Grand Elder of Namek,] Grand Elder Guru replied with respect.

[Hehe, don't worry about that, I don't mind these kinds of things,] King Kai said with a laugh.

[Now, the reason I contacted you is that I want you to talk to a special person, Guru,] King Kai said to Guru.

[And that person is?] Guru inquired.

[It is me, Grand Elder, my name is Kami, and I am a Namekian from Earth,] Kami introduced himself.

[Ahh, a Namekian from Earth, could it be that you are the child of Katas?] Guru asked, surprised.

[I am sorry, Grand Elder, I do not remember about my past, I lost my memories in childhood, and I just found out that I am a Namekian thanks to Lord Kai,] Kami explained.

[I see, it's a pity that you forgot about your ancestry, child,] Guru said with a sad tone, [I remember that Katas sent his child to a planet named Earth, and as you are a Namekian from Earth, you must be his son,]

[I humbly thank you from the bottom of my heart, Lord Kai, you reunited a lost Namekian with his family,] Guru expressed his gratitude to Lord Kai.

[I think I should leave you guys alone, I will go and talk to my family,] I chimed in between.

[Ah, you are?] Guru asked, surprised.

[Hello, Grand Elder, my name is Arlic, I am an Earthling, and I am Master Kami's student,] I introduced myself.

[Ah, so you are Kami's student, great, this makes you part of the family, you will always be welcomed on Namek, young Arlic,] Guru said in a happy tone.

[Thank you, Grand Elder, I will certainly visit Namek whenever I get the chance,] I replied with a smile.

[You're welcome, young Arlic,] Guru replied.

[Arlic, you have to wait for some time before I could help you to talk to your family,] King Kai said to me.

[Hehe, it's okay, Lord Kai, I can now connect to my family on my own,] I said with a chuckle.

[Ehh, you can now do what?] King Kai muttered, stunned.

[I can connect with my family on my own,] I repeated.

[Kyaaah, who was that?] Panchy screamed in fright.

[Mom, it's me, Arlic, please wait for a minute then we'll talk,] I explained to Panchy.

[You… You… how?] King Kai stuttered in shock.

[Simple, I just copied how you use your telepathy, and now I can just use it the same way as you,] I explained with a shrug.

[H… ho… how?] King Kai stuttered in disbelief.

[Hahahaha, Lord Kai, First Time?] Kami said while laughing.

[Hehe, just get used to it, this guy is the biggest cheat I have ever seen,] Kami explained.

[Who are all these people talking in my head, Arlic dear?] Panchy asked, confused.

[I'll explain everything to you in a second, Mom,] I replied to Panchy.

[Arlic, you go and talk with your Mother, I have a lot of things I want to talk about with Grand Elder,] Kami said happily.

[Sure,] I shrugged and lifted my hand from King Kai's back.
