Return to Earth

In the blink of an eye, Roland had taken Tights to several planets, witnessing the different landscapes of each world. This series of trips finally satisfied the blonde beauty's curiosity about the outside world.

On this day, Roland brought Tights back to Earth.

"We've already explored all the other planets, so from now on, just stay on Earth and stop thinking about going out all the time," Roland said, giving Tights her.

Tights chuckled, brushed her hair aside, and bent down, saying, "Little brother Roland, I'm older than you, don't act like you're my older brother."

"It is indeed quite large." Roland looked up at a certain part of Tights's body, seemingly lost in thought.

Tights slapped Roland on the head, then covered her chest with her hands, saying irritably, "I didn't expect you to be like this, Roland. Looks like I'll have to be more careful with you from now on." Although he was only nine years old and physically very young, for some reason Tights felt that he wasn't like a child at all.

Is it because Saiyan are all exceptionally precocious?

That's possible. According to Jaco, Saiyan are sent out to conquer planets when they are young children, so they must be different from ordinary Earth children.

We can no longer treat Roland like a child.

Feeling a little embarrassed, Tights invited Roland her home. After a moment's thought, Roland nodded in agreement. So they set off for the West City and soon arrived at their destination.

In front of Tights's house, this lively woman chattered away like a lark.

"Roland, you must stay at my house for a few more days. My parents will be very happy to see you."

Roland smiled and nodded, and the two then walked into the villa courtyard together.

"Ah, Tights back, with a little boy by her side. It seems you really do like young boys." Dr. Brief, who was being irreverent for his age, was watering his yard with a hose when he saw Tights and Roland come in and couldn't help but tease them.

"Dad, he's Roland!" Tights yelled at Dr. Brief.

"Oh, it really is Roland! You haven't changed at all in all these years. I thought you brought some other boy back!" Dr. Brief adjusted his glasses, surprised to find that Roland hadn't grown up at all in four years.

Tights snorted coldly. What did she mean by bringing other boys back? Was she that kind of person? She glanced at Roland and, seeing that he didn't seem upset, nodded slightly, took his hand, and said, "Roland, don't mind my father. I'll take you for a walk around the villa."

Roland nodded, gestured to Dr. Brief, and then went inside with Tights.

"Tights twenty years old and still doesn't have a boyfriend. Should I urge her to get one? Oh well, what if she really likes little boys? Let her choose for herself!" Briefs chuckled as he watched his eldest daughter and Roland's retreating figures, then picked up the hose and continued watering the plants in the yard.

If Tights knew that her father was talking about her behind her back like this, I wonder what she would think. Perhaps she would be so angry that she would pick up a hammer and smash her father's laboratory.

This was Roland's second visit to Tights's house. Having stayed there before, Roland was quite familiar with the layout. Under Tights's guidance, she toured all the areas and then led her into her studio for a visit.

"This is my private writing space; I don't usually let people in."

"I should feel honored," Roland said with a smile.

"Of course, after all, you're going to be the male lead in my next book." Tights smiled, her golden hair cascading down her shoulders and falling onto her deep red coat.

Upon entering the studio, Tights launched into a long explanation of her creative ideas for her next book. Roland listened with a smile, occasionally offering suggestions on her concepts. Several hours passed quickly. Meanwhile, night fell outside, city lights began to illuminate the city, and the bustling West City was soon bathed in colorful neon lights.

During dinner, Roland met Tights's mother, Mrs. Brief, and her sister, Bulma.

The Tights family is very good-looking. Eight-year-old Bulma already shows the potential to be a beauty. At this moment, the cute little girl is blinking her eyes and looking at Roland, seemingly having forgotten who he is.

Mrs. Brief was even more outrageous, immediately asking which of her daughters Roland had taken a liking to, and saying that she would give her daughter to him in marriage if he went on a date with her. What was even more astonishing was that Dr. Brief wasn't angry at all and even joked around with him. In the end, the farce only ended with Tights's dissatisfied shouts.

Dr. Brief. and Mrs. Brief hilarious; perhaps this is just their way of life!

Thinking to himself, Roland smiled and Tights, "What do you think of their proposal?"

"What?!"

"Marry me someday!" Roland said half-jokingly.

Tights was taken aback, not expecting Roland to ask her that. She fell into thought for a moment, but when she came to her senses, she saw Roland's teasing look and realized she had been tricked. So she pinched his arm hard and shouted, "You're joining in their commotion too!"

"Just saying," Roland said with a shrug.

At that moment, Tights's sister Bulma cast a wary glance at Roland, "Eek~~ I need to stay away from you." With that, she jumped off her seat and huffed and puffed as she ran towards the research lab.

"Look, even Bulma looks down on you."

Roland said indifferently, "I'm not interested in little kids."

"..." Tights suddenly opened her eyes wide.

The following morning.

The sky was clear and cloudless.

After getting up, Roland exercised in the yard for a while, then told Tais and the others before heading towards Korin Tower Tights. After four years, the Korin should have grown several more batches of Senzu Bean by now.

Upon returning to Earth, Roland certainly wouldn't let go of the Senzu Bean there.

To be honest, Roland has been consuming Senzu Bean quite drastically in recent years. Of the more than 10,000 Senzu Bean he stole from Korin, he used several thousand while searching for Saiyan had fled to other places, and then used a few more in the Gravity Chamber. Now he only has a mere 4,000 Senzu Bean left.

These quantities may seem like a lot, but in reality, they can't withstand his large-scale consumption!

Of course, simply stealing Senzu Bean from Korin wouldn't work. Without enough motivation, Korin wouldn't be able to grow many Senzu Bean in a year. So, in addition to visiting Korin, Roland also planned to visit the Kami in the Kami's Lookout.
