At the same time.
Inside the Time-Space Tunnel.
Since leaving the Super Time-Space World, Talot quickened his pace, following the guidance of the mark, heading towards his destination.
Finally, after who knows how long, Talot appeared outside the marked Spacetime World.
"Finally, I'm back! Selari, Bulma, Tarola, Taros, and Aunt Gine, Uncle Bardock, Raditz, Son Goku, everyone..."
Standing here, Talot's mind was filled with longing.
Recalling the time he left, it felt like just a moment ago.
Unknowingly, he had experienced so much.
Thinking about the experiences of these years, even though he had always met the same people in Other Spacetime Worlds, they were only similar.
Taking a deep breath, Talot steadied his emotions, then raised his hand and opened a Time-Space Tunnel leading to the Main World.
The connection point wasn't anywhere else, but his own home.
The Capsule Corp private Manor.
...
Inside the world.
Accompanied by the appearance of a Spacetime rift, Time-Space Power spread out from it.
Before long, a figure stepped out of the rift, standing in this world.
The Time-Space Tunnel quickly disappeared, turning into nothing, as if it had never appeared.
Returning to Earth, it was daytime, and Talot glanced down, taking everything into his eyes.
Although it was somewhat different, the Manor was bigger, but it was still the familiar home, especially everything near the main house, which had not changed.
Sensing auras, his Divine Sense instantly investigated everything he wanted to know.
Landing by the garden pond of the main house, smelling the familiar scent, even the fragrance of the flowers brought by the breeze, was the taste of home.
This was something that could not be felt in Other Spacetime Worlds.
Walking towards the main house, Talot used his heart to feel everything around him, and also took this opportunity to comprehend, taking his state of mind to a higher level.
Unknowingly, he arrived at the main house, and Talot habitually pushed the door open.
Because he didn't make any noise, he wasn't noticed by anyone at first.
Bulma and Selari were sitting at the tea table in the living room, talking to each other, completely unaware that the person they dreamed of had returned and was watching them.
Talot stood there quietly, watching them, his eyes slightly moist, his throat as if choked by something, he had so much to say, but at this moment it was stuck in his throat, not knowing what to say.
Am I back?
Did I keep you waiting?
Or, various explanations?
Talot was filled with guilt and longing for the two women.
"Selari..."
"Bulma..."
After a long, long time of building up the courage, Talot finally called out the names of the two women.
Hearing the call, the two women were stunned, their bodies stiffened, and the hands that had just picked up their teacups also paused.
"Really, it seems like I'm starting to have auditory hallucinations."
"No, I think I heard it too, Bulma."
The two women said to each other, then slowly turned their heads to look at the gate.
Disbelief flashed in their eyes, and at that moment, both women seemed to think they were seeing things, desperately rubbing their eyes with their hands.
Until they confirmed that it was Talot who had returned, the emotion hidden in their hearts instantly erupted.
Surprise, resentment, pain...
At this moment, everything turned into tears that streamed down their faces.
Selari took the lead in standing up and quickly walked to Talot, then stopped, repeatedly confirming before, with Talot's another "I'm back," she uncontrollably burst out.
She threw herself into Talot's arms, and began to vent her emotions recklessly.
Talot hugged Selari tightly, also expressing his feelings.
It wasn't until a long time had passed that Selari felt much better and calmed down.
She was easy to appease, but Bulma was not so easily fooled.
At this time, Bulma was still standing in place, sobbing, just watching Talot and Selari hug each other.
In fact, she also wanted to, even felt a little jealous, but it was indeed Selari who took the initiative, and she, because she didn't react for a moment, had been watching until now.
Seventeen years of pent-up negative emotions, Bulma would not hate Talot, but as a woman, even if that's what she thought in her heart, she still pretended to be angry on the surface.
"Bulma, I'm back." After letting go of Selari, Talot took her hand and walked to Bulma.
He knew that Bulma was strong, so she would not easily show her vulnerable side.
Looking at her husband so close, Bulma finally couldn't hold back and threw herself into Talot's arms.
Unlike Selari, Bulma cried and beat Talot's chest.
Talot quietly felt it, and also listened to Bulma's words in his heart.
"You bastard, you bastard, you bastard. So many years have passed, why are you only coming back now?! Do you know how difficult it has been for us these seventeen years?!... Just thinking that you might have encountered danger and couldn't come back, do you know how painful we were..."
Talot hugged Bulma tightly, and at the same time saw Selari on the side still with tears in her eyes, and rubbed her into his arms with his other hand.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault! I shouldn't have been greedy for other spacetime, I should have come back sooner, I didn't expect that this trip would be seventeen years..." Talot was horrified, unable to imagine that Selari and Bulma had waited for him for seventeen years.
He didn't feel the passage of time at first, because they would not age, maintaining their best years.
After calculating the time in his mind, Talot felt a little numb.
Who would have thought that it was already the era of the Majin Buu Saga.
So much time had passed.
Selari calmed down, and Bulma also calmed down.
After the complete outburst of negative emotions, what remained was a heart full of love.
Sitting down on the sofa, Talot told them everything he had experienced. Although he couldn't go into every detail, he at least told them the whole process.
He even told them about Bulma and Android 18 from another Spacetime World.
Talot knew that now wasn't the time to say it, but he had to. If he concealed it and waited until later, it might provoke Selari and Bulma's criticism.
Fortunately, nothing Talot didn't want to see happened.
Bulma and Android 18 from another Spacetime World were quickly accepted by Selari and Bulma.
Especially between the two Bulmas, there was some resonance. Just for better distinction in the future, Bulma from the Androids Spacetime World took the initiative to change her name to Buma, so there would be no confusion in the future.
As for Android 18, because she was an android, even though she knew the development of that world, the Androids incident had also happened in the past of this Spacetime World.
The most important thing was that Android 17 and Android 18 were both alive. If they met in the future, they would have to explain it clearly.
"Okay, that's about it for my experiences. Now, who will tell me what happened on Earth these past years?" Opening his heart and having no secrets brought him Selari and Bulma's trust and forgiveness.
"In these seventeen years, many things have indeed happened on Earth. As mentioned earlier, there was the outbreak of the Androids incident seven years ago..." As Bulma began to explain, Talot listened carefully without interrupting.
Selari supplemented from the side, and the two women did their best to explain the entire process of these seventeen years.
"I see, so the main change was Uncle Bardock's return seven years ago, and then the Androids incident broke out. It surprised me that a Cell who devoured his own kind would appear... Fortunately, even without me, you resolved this crisis. I can tell from Selari's strength that you have been working hard to cultivate all these years," Talot said with emotion.
Just by sensing, Talot could be sure that Selari's Base Form Battle Power had reached 100 billion.
That's 100 billion!
Although it was far, far behind him now, this was them getting stronger with their own power in this Spacetime without him as a variable.
Thinking back to when he left, Selari's Base Form Battle Power was only 90 million. Although there were signs of breaking 100 million before he left, it hadn't been achieved.
If Selari was so powerful, Talot found it hard to imagine the progress of others.
Especially Raditz and Vegeta.
Of course, there was also Kakarot.
Apart from Cell of the Androids incident being worth mentioning, there was also the earlier incident of Frieza Force soldiers coming to Earth, secretly trying to find the Dragon Ball to revive Frieza, but they were discovered and driven away.
Similar small crises had indeed occurred quite a few times, but they were insignificant.
Then, in the seven years after the Androids incident, some major events also occurred. Talot didn't expect that even with his intervention, those bosses who had appeared in the movies still appeared.
Especially the grudge warrior Hatchiyack.
As for the most surprising thing, it had to be that Mr. Satan became the savior of the world as in the original story, and it was still because of Bulma's support.
After learning the details, Talot couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect things to turn out this way.
But children and grandchildren have their own blessings. His world was the Main World, so there was no need to dwell on the fact that Videl should have been Son Gohan's wife in the original story.
"Speaking of which, is that Mr. Satan reliable? Don't just let him run wild because of his daughter." Talot took a sip of water and changed the subject.
Speaking of Mr. Satan, Talot had also thought deeply about it during the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament.
Initially, he thought that because of his existence, Mr. Satan shouldn't have such a future.
Who knew it would develop to this extent.
"As long as you don't object, it's my own decision. Everyone is giving you and Selari face, so they suppressed their anger and stopped caring about this matter," Bulma said with a helpless smile.
"What do you mean?" Talot asked, puzzled.
"The general idea is that at first, everyone was extremely angry that Mr. Satan stole the credit for defeating Cell and saving the world. Even though everyone wasn't interested in this kind of savior's fame, being impersonated and having the credit stolen was another matter. Others aside, you know Raditz and Nappa's tempers, Talot, and the younger generation of children all have their own ideas. They were clamoring to find Mr. Satan to settle the score," Selari explained for Bulma.
After hearing this, Talot suddenly understood and continued, "So Bulma and you came forward and used my name to make this happen?"
"Actually, I think Mr. Satan is a bit vain, but he is indeed a talent. Not only is he eloquent, but he can easily fool ordinary people. Plus, his daughter is close to our son, so I made the decision to let him maintain peace on Earth on the surface, at least he can do something to stabilize people's hearts, so that people won't panic because of some small things... In addition, after Mr. Satan became a savior, he also entered our circle. The financial group he created happens to provide for everyone's living needs, and everyone doesn't have to worry about making a living..." Speaking of this, Bulma stopped.
She was looking at Talot's expression.
After all, this was her own decision. Although it wasn't a big deal, she did use Talot to suppress everyone.
Seeing that Bulma stopped talking, Talot didn't care about such trivial matters.
"You are my wife, so what are you worried about? As long as it's what you want to do, I will support you unconditionally. You did a great job with this matter. Seven years have passed, and Earth is still maintaining peace. Doesn't that prove you're right?" Talot took a deep look at Bulma, letting her relax.
Bulma must have done a lot of things in these seventeen years, and she definitely couldn't say it all at once. Talot trusted Bulma, so he would slowly understand it bit by bit in the future.
This time he came back, he wouldn't leave again.
Unless he had to leave.
With Talot's words of comfort, this absolute sense of security affirmed Bulma's heart, and all the previous haze dissipated.
"By the way, you just said that Taros and Son Gohan went to school together today?" Talot asked in surprise, returning the topic to his children.
The main reason was that he recalled the plot of Son Gohan going to school in the original story. He wondered what the plot would develop into with his son joining and having already established a relationship with Videl? Bulma nodded and smiled helplessly, "You weren't here, so you don't know. If you were here, maybe he wouldn't have this kind of personality..."
Bulma's words made Talot feel guilty again.
"You've suffered, Bulma."
"It's okay, that child has made me angry a lot, but he's actually very smart and knows how to be considerate of me. It's just that he's too lazy usually. He was fine in the past few years, he knew how to cultivate and become stronger, he knew how to learn technology from me, and he had clear goals. In recent years, he's been thinking about playing all day long, and he doesn't take studying seriously... So I gave him a death order, he must get a Orange Star High School diploma," Bulma said fiercely.
The so-called doting mother produces a spoiled son, Bulma was afraid that her son would become more and more lazy, so she used this method.
"To be on the safe side, Bulma also specifically asked Taros and Gohan to go to school in Mr. Satan City. On the one hand, Videl is at Orange Star High School, maybe she can help him focus, and by the way, they can also work on their relationship," Selari added.
