At the thought of this, both Whis and Beerus were startled.
But the possibility was truly enormous. Otherwise, why would the Supreme Kai of Time treat Kasso with such respect?
And why was Popo so unusually attentive toward Kasso?
Beerus and Whis fell silent, quietly waiting for Kasso's return in the Sacred World of the Kais.
Suddenly!
"Lord Beerus, what did we go to the Time Realm for just now?" Old Kai froze, as though he had forgotten something.
Shin wore the same puzzled expression.
"It's nothing!"
Beerus shook his head without explaining.
Whis smiled. He knew Zamasu had likely been erased. Anyone below the fifth level of the Divine Realm would forget everything related to Zamasu.
That was also why Old Kai and Shin had forgotten the purpose of their trip to the Time Realm.

Beerus muttered, suddenly unsure how to face Kasso.
The guess he and Whis had made was most likely true. If so, Kasso's status had risen directly to Great Zeno's level.
Yet Kasso had previously been nothing more than a mortal. Even if his realm had only been at the Grand Kai level, he still could not be considered a deity.
As the God of Destruction, Beerus could be said to be Universe 7's highest ruler. Whenever Kasso saw him, he had to address him as "Lord."

Whis, standing nearby, had thought of this as well, but he was better about it.
Angels valued following nature and not going against their hearts. If Kasso truly was the new Time King, then calling him "Lord" was
