In the ter of the royal city, within the pace, ohrohat represehe highest authority of the Saiyans, a skinny, hairless purple-skinned anthropomorphic cat was sitting leisurely.
This cat was her than the God of Destru, Beerus.
To Beerus's left stood a man dressed in special attire, holding a scepter with a calm expression on his face.
He was the Angel, Whis.
At this moment, a very tragic se was unfolding.
Uhe throne, Beerus crushed Kia's head with his foot, grinding it repeatedly.
Faced with such humiliation, Kia k on the ground, trembling, not daring to show aand even actively aodating Beerus' movements.
That once dignified face was now overtaken by cold sweat and an expression of fear.
He never imagined, not even in his wildest dreams, that the legendary God of Destru would arrive o Vegeta.
Now, he was in a state of panic, deeply afraid that Beerus might get unhappy aroy him on the spot.
Fortunately, he had not acted recklessly from the start and had greeted Beerus with the highest Saiyaiquette.
Otherwise, he could imagine his fate.
Yet, even so, he failed to please this god. Instead, because the food didn't suit Beerus's taste, Beerus ridiculed him and demahat he fetch the best pillow in the universe.
Kia didn't dare to refute or oppose him and had his subordinates prepare it.
The result was the current se.
"Kia, are you mog me? The best pillow in the universe 't be this trash," said Beerus with a mog expression, revealing his merciless disdain for ants.
As he exerted a bit of force with his foot, Kia's head pressed even lower, almost toug the ground.
"Spare-Spare me...Lod of Destru... I'll immediately order my subordio fetch the best pillow in the universe..." Kia's voice ged.
To him, survival was all that mattered now.
What dignity as the king of Saiyans? Without life, nothing else mattered.
So weak, so pathetic.
If other Saiyans saw this se, they would find it hard to believe.
And at this moment, someone did witness it. Initially in disbelief, the observer's face soon turned furious.
He was her thaa, who had e to discuss with his father about going on an expedition against a p.
"Stop!!" ed, even though Vegeta was only five years old, he unleashed a powerful aura and charged straight at Beerus.
Though endable for his ce, Beerus merely g him, causing the young boy to bee disoriented and stumble untrolbly, falling forward.
With a power level of mere few thousands, how could he pare to the mighty God of Destru of Universe 7?
"The so-called King of Saiyans is really a coward, even a child's ce surpasses yours." No longer in a pyful mood, Beerus rose from the throne, his words dripping with disdain.
With a casual stomp, Beerus smashed Kia's head into the ground, embedding it there.
The terrifying forstantly knocked him unscious.
"What a joke of a warrior race, these Saiyans. I have no desire to linger on this garbage p for another moment," Beerus said, indifferent to his as.
To him, not destroying P Vegeta ht was already a favor for Kia's ie hospitality.
"Yes, Lord Beerus," Whis replied, his expression not ging from start to finish.
But before leaving, Whis took a deep look at the helpless Vegeta lying on the ground; the profound gaze seemed to see into the future.
It was long after they had left that the colpsed Vegeta finally rexed.
firming that they were gone, he quickly rushed to his father's side to che him.
He didn't know who they were, only that their power was something they couldn't resist.
God of Destru Beerus taught the youa his first life lesson.
The prince learhat despite being a Saiyan prince, he was ultimately nothing.
Of course, this memory would soon be buried deep in youa's sciousness, as he would spend the wenty years as Frieza's toy.

Outside the royal city, iown.
Talot returned as quickly as possible.
If he knew what had transpired in the pace, his mood would undoubtedly be heavy.
As expected, things developed exactly as he khey would.
Along the way, Talot greeted acquaintances and finally arrived at Bardod Gine's home.
Talot's house was right door, essentially making them neighbors.
Entering the house, Talot saw Giting a beast's leg.
Focused oask, Gine didn't notice Talot's arrival.
"I'm back, Aunt Gine."
Hearing the sound, Gine jolted, as if startled, only then did she turn around.
But seeing that it was Talot, she smiled.
"Little Talot, back so early today?"
Gieased lightly before habitually lifting her hand to pinch Talot's cheek.
As a female Saiyan, especially one who had given birth not long ago, Gine didn't have to perform missions like other Saiyans.
Of course, thanks to Bardock, Gine could opt out of being a bat-oriented Saiyan and focus on logistics work.
Used to being teased, Talot resisted but couldn't help it.
Gine had dohis to him since he was young.
He could only wait for her to finish ping.
"Aunt Gine, I'm already five. You shouldn't pinch my faymore," Talot habitually pined, c his pinched face.
"So, our little Talot has grown up and started to dislike Auntie Gine?" Gi on a sad expressioone filled with grievance.
If outsiders were to withis se, they would surely think it's pyful banter between mother and son.
Of course, for Talot, Gine may not be his mother, but she was more than a mother to him.
Talot felt a motherly love from Gihat he had missed in his previous life.
After some pyful baalht up the main matter to Gine.
"Aunt Gine, you mentiohat Uncle Bardock would be back soon. Do you know the exact day?"
"Let me think. The st time we talked, he mentio should be in the few days. If all goes well, Bardock should be home tomorrow or the day after," Gied her index finger on her , p for a moment before speaking.
"Tomorrow or the day after? So soon?" Talot was surprised.
This was entirely ued.
He thought there was still some time left, at least a few days to prepare himself. Who would have thought it was already time.
If this was the prelude to the main plot, he had to take amediately.
Seeing Talot's strange expression, Gine asked in fusion, "Little Talot, do you need Bardock's help with something?"
