"I see."

After listening to Bulma and Selari's explanation, Talot felt that he needed to get to know his son better.

He left this world when he was only three months old. I never imagined that seventeen years would pass and he would grow up.

Seeing Talot's serious expression, Bulma and Selari guessed what Talot was thinking.

Even after being separated for seventeen years, they can still understand each other's hearts and directly comprehend each other's feelings.

"What about Tarola? Is she also attending Orange Star High School?" Talot asked again, thinking of her and Selari's beloved daughter.

After his daughter was born, he spoiled her rotten. When he left, she was only two years old and so adorable.

Now I've grown up, and if I count the time, I'm almost twenty.

Upon hearing this, Selari smiled and said, "Tarola doesn't attend Orange Star High School. She attends Blue Hal High School with Raditz's son, Treep, and will graduate in another six months... Her grades are excellent, and her skills haven't suffered because of her studies. You know, she's always been very competitive, so she takes everything she does exceptionally seriously..."

Selari stopped speaking at this point and did not continue.

Some things can only be clarified between Talot and Tarola face to face.

Selari felt that her daughter's inner conflict needed to be resolved by her father, Talot.

He left so suddenly back then, even though he said goodbye, he promised to come back soon.

Who could have imagined that he would be gone for seventeen years?

The daughter's resentment towards her father continued to intensify.

"It's a pity I couldn't be a part of their lives as they grew up. Now that they're all grown up, that opportunity is gone." A hint of guilt flashed in Talot's eyes.

Seeing Talot like this, Bulma gently patted Talot on the shoulder and said, "Although we missed each other in the past, there is still a lot of time in the future. More important than that, it's good that you're back. We won't have to be separated again."

"Bulma is right, as are Bulma and Android 18 from another world."

Their words moved Talot even more.

Bulma and Android 18, who had already been summoned by Talot, were also extremely excited.

They were actually quite nervous. Now that they hadn't been turned away, they wouldn't have to worry about getting along with each other anymore.

It's just a question of whether Talot's son and daughter will accept them.

After a heartfelt exchange, Talot suddenly realized something and had his answer. So he led the four women outside to greet them.

The visitor was none other than Whis.

Although he had seen Whis from Other Spacetime World, in the end, this Whis was the one he felt most at ease with.

After all, Whis was the first person he met, and he was also the one in this world. From the very beginning, Weiss had given him tremendous help and guidance.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten to where he is today.

Their eyes met, and Talot and Whis smiled at each other.

"I didn't expect you to find out about my return so quickly, and to come to Earth to find me," Talot said.

The meaning is quite clear: Whis unexpectedly arrived ahead of schedule.

Whis chuckled and replied, "Actually, I already knew about your departure from that other time and space, and I even calculated the timing of your return... I also communicated with my counterparts in the time and space you visited, so I have some information about you..."

"Really? As expected, Angel is Angel. Even if I am this powerful, I still cannot compare to her," Talot exclaimed.

His words seemed to contain profound meaning, but in reality, they were just casual remarks.

Whis continued, revealing his other purpose for coming. "The Grand Priest is already aware that you have returned to this time and space, so I came to Earth partly to take you to see him."

"The Grand Priest of our world?" Talot wondered, making a guess in his mind.

The four women standing nearby were very worried, seemingly afraid that Talot would leave again for some reason.

Bulma and Selari, who had known Whis for so many years, were even more worried at this moment, because they had indeed heard of the existence of the Grand Priest, but Whis had only mentioned his name and had not told them his specific identity.

It was only when Champa and Vados came to Earth as guests that they let slip that there were Grand Priest and the Zeno above the Angel.

Sensing the change in the four women's emotions, Talot said, "It's alright. Even if I really need to do something, that's for later. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back now."

After speaking, Talot looked at Whis, who was staring at Bulma and Android 18 from another time and space, and Talot felt uncertain.

From the moment he began traversing the world of time and space, Talot already knew some of the implicit rules.

People from different time and space worlds are not allowed to cross over on their own initiative unless permitted.

Unless it is not discovered.

Even if it's due to being forced to cross over, once discovered, the only possible stop is a brief one.

Bardock's proficiency was an accident; he went unnoticed, or rather, by the time he was noticed, Bardock was already in the Dark Demon Realm.

Just like when Talot went to Other Spacetime World, he was only allowed to stay there. It was only after he arrived in the Super Time-Space world that the Grand Priest granted him the authority to travel and stay in other worlds at will.

This is something that Talot only gradually understood after he was given the mark.

It's just that some things can't be said openly, because those are the rules.

"Don't worry, the Grand Priest already gave me a heads-up before I came. Moreover, Bulma and Android 18 from another timeline are now entangled in fate with you, so in a sense, they have already been recognized by the rules of our timeline because of you," Whis said.

These words also dispelled Talot's concerns.

Meanwhile, Bulma and Android 18 were overjoyed upon hearing Whis's words.

Even the world has acknowledged their existence, so what do they have to worry about? "Thank you." The two women thanked Whis for his explanation.

Although they don't know Whis yet, they will likely have a lot of contact with him in the future.

"Then I'll go with you first. I'm also very curious to know why the Grand Priest of our time and space is looking for me?" Talot said.

Upon hearing this, Whis nodded and then gestured for Talot to reach out and grab his shoulder.

The moment he touched Whis's shoulder, Talot spoke to the four women again, "Wait for me at home, I'll be back soon. Also, prepare some big meals; I really miss Earth's food after being away for so many years."

As Talot finished speaking, Bulma and Selari were once again moved to tears and nodded repeatedly.

Seeing this, Whis smiled and said, "Mrs. Selari, Mrs. Bulma, please prepare more of the cakes and pastries we enjoyed last time, hehehehe~~"

"I know, but Whis, if you manage to kidnap Talot this time, I'm never preparing Earth's food for you again." Bulma stared at Whis with a serious expression, her eyes full of intimidation.

This made Whis break out in a cold sweat.

It must be said that he has suffered a great deal over the years.

Every time Bulma and Selari asked him a question, he had to answer seriously, and every answer required reassurance...

For Whis, who had served Beerus for so many years, he had never had such thoughts.

Watching Talot leave with Whis, the initial excitement over Talot's return cooled down slightly.

Selari and Bulma were stunned for a long time before they started to take action after being reminded by Bulma and Android 18.

Their first thought wasn't simply to prepare food, but to throw a grand celebration.

After seventeen years, Talot has finally returned. If they don't even hold a banquet for him, then they, as his wives, are not taking this seriously enough.

"Bulma, why don't you help me prepare? Judging by the timeline, even though you are me from seven years ago, you should be familiar with everything in this house. Like you just said, the differences shouldn't be that big," Bulma suggested.

"Okay, we'll need to get to know each other sooner or later, so let's start with the basics. From now on, just treat me like your little sister, even though we're the same person..." Bulma said.

Bulma was pleased with these words. She was, after all, the younger sister, and since both of them were Talot's wives, there had to be a proper order of precedence.

Just like how Selari was with Talot before, even though she doesn't call Selari" sister" anymore, she knows what's going on.

"Then I'll contact everyone on Earth. I'm sure you'll all be extremely happy and excited when you hear this news," Selari said.

Compared to the mundane tasks of preparing a banquet, even after all these years, Selari still doesn't do as meticulously as Bulma.

"Indeed, we should tell everyone, especially the two children, and do our best to prepare them in advance," Bulma said after a pause.

All three girls had something to do, but Android 18 was a little lost because she didn't know anything and didn't know what she could do.

Bulma then cleverly spoke up to him, saying, "Look how anxious I am. Android 18, you might be quite busy from now on. When people from outside come to the house later, you need to supervise them well, whether it's the venue setup or the chefs and gourmets you've invited."

"Okay, leave it to me." Android 18 nodded happily.

Here, the four women began to busy themselves with their respective tasks.

In particular, when Selari started making phone calls one by one, the warriors on Earth were all incredibly energized.

First, there's Mount Paozu.

Bardock was extremely excited after hearing the news of Talot's return.

"He's back! That kid really is back! That's great!!" Bardock was overjoyed after hanging up the phone.

At this moment, I wish I could go to the West City immediately to see Talot.

But the phone call also mentioned that Talot was taken away by Whis, supposedly to see the Grand Priest.

"Bardock, what's wrong?" Gine, who had heard the commotion outside, came in and looked at her husband with a suspicious expression.

Bardock saw Gine and rushed over to hug her tightly. "Gine, do you know what news Selari just told me?"

"What?" Gine had never seen Bardock like this before, and she began to wonder, could it be...?

"That kid Talot, he's back!" Bardock said earnestly, his voice not loud, but it struck right to the heart.

Upon hearing this, Gine's eyes immediately filled with tears.

They had always believed that it was because of Bardock that Talot was unable to return.

Gine has felt guilty all these years, as has Bardock.

It's been seven years since I returned from Bardock, and these seven years of waiting have been even more agonizing than the past ten years.

"Cry it out, it'll make you feel better." Bardock, being a man, was naturally stronger.

Now that Talot has finally returned, the negative emotions that have been building up inside him finally have an outlet.

"I'm going to find him right now. He must have suffered a lot all these years alone out there." Gine wiped away her tears, eager to set off for West City.

Bardock stopped him, saying, "No rush! Selari said that after Talot returned, he was taken by Whis to see the Grand Priest who is even higher than Angel."

"Will everything be alright? Let's hope nothing else goes wrong," Gine asked worriedly.

Bardock shook his head. "Don't worry, that kid is lucky. Now that he's back, it's normal for him to be getting the Grand Priest's attention. Bulma and the others are already preparing the banquet. Let's go inform Raditz and Kakarot first, and then go to West City together to wait for Talot to return."

"Okay." Gine nodded.

The two of them went outside.

I happened to see Raditz and Son Goku having a conversation.

On the other side, there were also Blonde Launch and Chi-Chi, who were washing and rinsing while chatting about some interesting things that had happened recently.

In addition, there was a child running around chasing butterflies who looked almost exactly like Son Goku and Bardock.

It was Son Goku and Chi-Chi's second child Son Goten.

After Bardock returned, the family was reunited, Son Goku and Chi-Chi worked hard and finally had their second child.

At first, Raditz did want to have another child, but unfortunately, the Blonde Launch was unable to conceive again.

The idea of having another child was ultimately abandoned.

Moreover, the two had a son.

"What?! Talot is back?!"

"Is this... is this real, Dad?"

When Bardock told Son Goku and Raditz the news, the two were both so shocked and overjoyed that they could not contain themselves.

This was incredibly good news; it was the best news they had heard in years.

The last time I was this happy was when my father, Bardock, came back.

Seeing that his two sons were about to leave, Bardock stopped them and told them about how Whis had taken Talot to see the Grand Priest.

"Bulma and the others are preparing for the banquet right now, and Selari needs to contact other people. If we go now, we won't be able to help, and we'll only cause trouble," Bardock said.

Son Goku and Raditz exchanged a glance before calming their excited hearts.

Now that we're back, there's no need to rush.
