Mysterious Angel Appears

"Really? The Grand Priest thinks so too, right?" Zeno asked excitedly after hearing that the Grand Priest agreed.

"If that's the case, then this matter should be decided first."

Zeno was thrilled. If Goten could become the Grand God of Destruction, maybe he could stay by his side for a long time. He didn't know why, but after meeting Goten, everything seemed more fun. Perhaps after becoming the Grand God of Destruction, things wouldn't be so boring.

"Okay, Lord Zeno, you can decide this matter," the Grand Priest said respectfully. Though he was feared by all the Gods as the Grand Priest, in reality, he was just a steward for Zeno. His status was similar to that of an Angel; he could give Zeno a lot of advice but couldn't make decisions for him.

"Well, but I'm a little sleepy now. Let Goten come over when I wake up," Zeno said, stretching his waist. After that, everyone returned to the Temple of Zeno, and the Tournament of Power officially ended.

...

Meanwhile, everyone in the Seventh Universe had been sent back to the God of Destruction Realm in their universe.

"Goten, thank you for this," Beerus said sincerely. "If you hadn't won the game and made that wish, our eight universes would have suffered this time! I really didn't expect Lord Zeno and the Grand Priest to test us like this. If the 11th Universe had won the final match, their selfishness would have led to the destruction of the eight universes."

Beerus was genuinely grateful. When he competed against the Sixth Universe last time, he was already thankful to Goten. If it wasn't for Goten rejecting Zeno's request and becoming the Seventh Universe's God of Destruction, Beerus might have turned to cosmic dust, and even his soul would have ceased to exist. From then on, Beerus considered Goten his best friend and benefactor.

"There's nothing to thank, Beerus. I also saved Earth and everyone I care about, so you don't have to thank me," Goten smiled. If he wasn't a transmigrator, things would have been dangerous this time. But fortunately, he knew Zeno and the Grand Priest's plan.

This time, he saved the day and avoided erasure. His desire for strength grew stronger. With absolute strength, he wouldn't have feared anything today. He wouldn't need to adhere to the whims of Zeno and the Grand Priest. Though they might not have ill intentions, he disliked the feeling of their whims controlling everything. Someday, they might call upon him again.

"Anyway, you saved the entire universe this time. From now on, no matter what happens, as long as I can help, I will never back down!" Beerus said righteously. Goten saved his life twice. If a future crisis arose, he would help without hesitation, even if it cost his own life. Though he feared death, he considered himself a loyal God.

"Then I thank you for that help in advance!" Goten said sincerely, sensing Beerus's genuine friendship. He didn't have many true friends in this world. Krillin was one, Trunks barely another, and perhaps now, Beerus too. He believed that relationships were simple: if you treat me well, I will treat you well. If you want to harm me, I will defend myself by harming you.

They chatted briefly before Goten returned to Earth with them. Goku and Vegeta planned to continue training in the God of Destruction Realm, but Goten promised Chichi he would bring Goku and Gohan back for a family reunion in two days. He couldn't break that promise.

After some thought, Beerus and Whis also chose to go to Earth too. They had been worried about the Tournament of Power and hadn't enjoyed their food. This was a perfect opportunity to enjoy delicious food with confidence, knowing Zeno wouldn't hold such a competition again soon.

...…

Mount Paozu

"Goku, Gohan... the halo above your heads has disappeared, and you are really resurrected! It's great."

Chichi hugged them excitedly after seeing Goku and Gohan in front of her. After nine years of separation, they were finally reunited. After this reunion, they would never be separated again.

"Okay, Chichi. I just finished participating in the competition and consumed too much energy. Now my stomach is growling with hunger! Can you make something to eat first?"

Goku patted Chichi on the back, then scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Okay, okay, wait a moment. Videl and I will prepare something right away."

Chichi quickly agreed and went to prepare food. The father and son also enjoyed a rare reunion. To be honest, they had never sat at the same table together.

"Goten, you're really getting better now! I didn't expect your strength to reach the point where we have to look up to you," Goku said, pleased. There was no envy or jealousy, just pure happiness for his son. It was indeed gratifying to be the most powerful mortal in the universe.

"Goten, I'm curious. How on earth do you train? How can your strength become so powerful? When Dad and Vegeta were in the underworld, they trained day and night without any slack. But for eight years, they only reached the peak of Super Saiyan III and Super Saiyan II. And you became so powerful without anyone's training!"

Gohan asked curiously. This was a question he had always wondered about. Logically, both of them were sons of Goku, so their talent shouldn't be too bad. But Goten's current strength had already surpassed the God of Destruction. Yet, even with Whis's training, Gohan's strength had just reached Super Saiyan Blue. This gap sometimes made him feel awkward.

"I don't know what to tell you either. Anyway, I kept training and training, and I became so strong,"

Goten shrugged and replied perfunctorily. After all, he couldn't tell them about the system in his body! Even if he did, they might not believe it.

Both of them looked helpless, not knowing how to continue the conversation. What does it mean to become so strong after training? They had trained desperately for some time but had never become so strong!

"By the way, Goten, I'm even more curious why the ki aura around your body is vibrant green when you become a Super Saiyan. That look is exactly like the Saiyan Broly you met in the Southern Galaxy. What's going on? Did your Saiyan bloodline mutate?"

Gohan asked again. It wasn't impossible for a bloodline to mutate. Both he and his father had ordinary Saiyan blood, but Goten's bloodline seemed to have mutated.

"I don't know much about this. When I fought Janemba last time, I got very angry, and I became like that after transforming. As for what happened in between, I don't understand,"

Goten shook his head and continued to reply perfunctorily. Goku and Gohan could only choose to believe him. After all, they felt Goten wouldn't lie to them. And sometimes, these things were indeed unclear...

An hour later, a table of delicacies was ready. Chichi's cooking was very much to Goku's liking. A large table of dishes was devoured in a short while. Feeding three Saiyans was really expensive. 

...

Time passed day by day. Half a month went by in a blink of an eye. Just a few days ago, Goku and Vegeta couldn't bear the boring life anymore. In the end, they chose to go to the God of Destruction Realm to continue their training. After participating in the Tournament of Power, they knew there were countless strong people in the universe, many stronger than them. Not wanting to be outdone, they naturally chose to improve their strength desperately. Maybe they couldn't surpass Goten in this life, but at least they couldn't let the distance between them grow too big.

Although Chichi and Bulma were quite opposed, Saiyans were really stubborn when they decided to train and couldn't be reasoned with. In the end, they could only agree to let them go to the God of Destruction Realm, but with a condition—they must come back at least twice a month! Gohan and Trunks also followed them to the God Realm for training.

...

At this time in Mount Paozu, Goten was enjoying a rare quiet life. He didn't train for a few days, choosing instead to relax for a while. He knew his strength was still far from those like Zeno and the Grand Priest, but training blindly and pushing the limits of his body wasn't always a good idea. Sometimes, a bit of relaxation was necessary. Besides, with his Legendary Bloodline and potential developed by Super Shenron, his strength would increase day by day even without daily training.

"Goten, do you remember what you said to me the night before you went to that tournament?" Videl suddenly spoke. After that night, she had been waiting for Goten to come back. But with Goku and Gohan returning together, she didn't have the nerve to mention it. Now that they went to train in the God of Destruction Realm, she had time to bring it up. This was the best opportunity to speed up their relationship, and she couldn't miss it.

"Of course, I remember. I said that after the Tournament of Power was over, I would take you on a tour to other planets. I was busy a few days ago, so I ignored this matter. If you're ready, let's go tomorrow!" Goten quickly nodded with a smile. He had always kept this promise in his heart and hadn't forgotten it. It was just that there were many trivial matters to attend to recently, so he hadn't fulfilled it yet.

"I... of course, I'm ready. I've been ready for a long time," Videl nodded happily. She was very excited. During this time, she had been preparing every day, always ready.

"Okay, tell mom after you go back. Let's set off tomorrow morning!" Goten nodded with a smile. After such a long time, he had fully accepted Videl. It wasn't an option to keep procrastinating like this, and it was unfair to Videl. Now, it was time to finalize their relationship.

"All right!! I'll go and get us food for the trip now. I heard from Goku a few days ago that the food on other planets is terrible," Videl nodded quickly and went to prepare the food happily. Watching her, a smile appeared on Goten's face. Now fifteen years old, and having been an adult in his previous life, he had reached the age for considering the matters about love and relationships. There had to be some seasoning for the boring days of training and getting stronger.

...

Meanwhile, in the 11th Universe, Belmod sat on a mountaintop in a daze while Marcarita was training the God of Destruction candidate, Toppo. After the Tournament of Power, Toppo realized his strength was too weak for the position of God of Destruction. So, he asked Marcarita to train him to be stronger, qualifying him for the position. Belmod didn't care about that at all. His expression had been very serious since he came back from the Null Realm.

"Damned mortal, don't think that I will be grateful to you for restoring the 11th Universe. The humiliation you caused me before, I will never forgive. I will never let you go..." Belmod smiled maliciously to himself. He would never let Goten from the Seventh Universe get away with it.

"Hey! Lord Belmod's obsession is a bit too deep now. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing. Maybe it will cost his life," Marcarita thought to herself. She knew what Belmod was thinking; he was still brooding over his defeat by Goten at Zeno's Temple.

For him, it was not a good thing because Goten's strength had far surpassed the level of a God of Destruction. The wisest thing to do was to forget about it completely, but she couldn't persuade Belmod, who was too obsessed.

"I hope Lord Belmod won't do something stupid!" Marcarita murmured softly, continuing to train Toppo.

Just as she was starting to continue training, a mysterious dimensional portal appeared in the sky of the God Realm. Immediately, a figure emerged from the portal. The person had silver-white hair styled like a Saiyan's after becoming Super Saiyan, with a pinch of silver-white bangs in front of his eyebrows. Like an Angel, he had light blue skin and light purple pupils, wore a black cloak, and had a warm smile on his face. His appearance and style were somewhat similar to an Angel.

The moment he appeared, Marcarita felt it and raised her head abruptly, surprise and fear in her eyes. "Big...Brother!!" she called out subconsciously after seeing the familiar face. Belmod and Toppo also looked back immediately.

"That guy... who is he? How can he can easily enter the God Realm by creating portals?!"
