Being so close together again and kissing each other for a while, Bumla noticed his markings on the lower part of his neck and her curiosity was triggered.

"Hmm, what is this?", she asked and pulled his shirt a little to the side to see more. Now she could see the markings go deeper over his body. She slightly frowned. "Did you actually get yourself some tattoos?"

Darc looked at her actions. "What do you think? Do they suit me?", he asked out of fun and wanted to know what she thought about it.

She remained silent at first and looked at it for a while. "Why that color, though?", she said and looked back at his eyes.

"To tell the truth, I didn't get those voluntarily. Something happened on the trip and after that, they just appeared. At least I think they aren't anything bad.", he told her. He was only aware that they probably are there because he overstrained himself blocking that damn atomic breath.Come to think of it, he should let himself get checked nonetheless. "Well, at least I think so. I will still get myself checked to be sure."

Bulma nodded and a little bit of glimmer appeared in her eyes. "Can I see the rest?", she asked and was curious about how much of his body was in that state.

Darc smirked at that question. Looks like she actually liked it. "You will see enough of it later on.", he said and softly kneaded her behind.

Bulma blushed again and slightly got excited. It has been a while. "Hmm, I guess that´s true.", she answered back. She was about to kiss him on her own initiative but at that moment Ms. briefs came into the kitchen and Bulma got a sight scare.

"Oh my, Darc. You are back. Welcome back.", smiled Ms. Briefs and then looked at the chaos of the kitchen. "Bulma dear. Did you destroy the kitchen again?", she added as a question.

"Mom!", rebuked Bulma and got red again because of a different reason.

"Hmm? Did I interrupt you on something?", asked Ms. Briefs after noticing Bulma actually sitting on Darc his lap.

At that remark, Bulma also still noticed her sitting there and dismounted Darc.

"Haha. Hello, mom...", answered Darc with a slight chuckle. It was still weird for him to call Ms. Briefs that. But after talking with them what they would like to be called after he married Bulma, it turned out Ms. briefs just wanted to be called mom by him and Dr. Briefs just stayed at his given name, Hakase. "A little bit. We were getting to the good part.", continued Darc and joined her to tease Bulma a little bit more.

"Oh my. Then I should leave at once.", smiled Ms. Briefs.

"Darc!", shouted Bulma embarrassed from the side. She grumbled a little bit and was somewhat mad that he was indulging himself at that moment. "Hmpf, I will be going now.", she said and walked away.

Both Ms. Briefs and Darc laughed in amusement. Darc found out that Bulma´s parents, just like his own, liked to tease both of them non-stop. At some point, he started to get used to it.

"Well, I should also get going and prepare some things. Its good to you see you.", he said and smiled at Ms. Briefs.

"Oh, wait a moment. Tights has brought you something the last time she was back with Jaco. I put it in your old room.", said Ms. Briefs right now.

"Hmm? Something for me? Thanks for telling me.", responded Darc in a somewhat surprised manner.

He immediately made his way to his room and looked at what it was.

On his desk was a piece of paper with a box. Before he opened the box he read the letter.

"Hey there, dear brother!" Darc smiled wryly. Tights really enjoyed calling him that now.

"I hope you find this letter soon. There has been quite some turmoil lately around the northern quadrant of the universe. This is really so much fun! thank again for upgrading our ship, hehe. Well, back to the topic at hand. I heard from Azul that you are searching for information about mythological beasts? What were they again? Blue Dragon, Black Turtle, and a White Cat? I found some information about that blue dragon. I put it into the drive that is inside the box. Oh, and there are some rumors about a purple cat and not a white one? They say it is a god of destruction or something. Can you believe how so many races fear a certain being?"

Darc coughed reading that phrase about Beerus. Even though he is asleep most of the time he still makes sure all beings fear him.

"Well, if that is the truth I wonder if I can get to meet that god. Maybe I could write a story about him. Hey, if you meet him. Make sure to tell me! I have the feeling you would be someone that would get the chance for some reason. Now, that was about all. Oh, and there is something else in the box. A souvenir of sorts. Hope you like it. Your dear sister, Tights."

Finishing the letter Darc only sighed. Well, now he could maybe have all leads for the divine beasts if her information is right. But somehow he felt misfortune collecting around himself after reading that letter.

Shacking his head and disregarding that thought he opened up the box. He took the drive for later and looked at the souvenir. It was a little tower of pebbles.

´Huh? Wait, are those the ones that Jaco ones stacked up?´, thought Darc. he touched it but it didn't fall. Looks like it was glued together. What is he supposed to do with this?

He looked around and just put it somewhere of a shelf and shrugged his shoulders if this was a good place.

Then Darc moved to his computer and started reading through all the emails that once again accumulated into the heavens.

Darc only rubbed his glabella in annoyance after seeing that. Why did this remind him of the Narutoverse and the Hokage? Yeah, he will never again try to become the most important person in a world. This amount of work just simply kills you...And he even has to balance that with his daily life. Now he wishes to be back in that Godzilla world...

Sighing, he started his work and dealt with everything that needed his immediate attention.

While doing so he noticed an email from Chronoa. She was actually able to use the computer he gave her? How does she even have a connection in her realm?

Looks like Chronoa deciphered another scroll and Darc should take a look. That actually made Darc intrigued but he answered her that he will be busy for a while and will come later after everything is finished up. It would take about half a year.

Chronoa reply came even immediately. She just accepted that and would wait.

Then he looked at the reports Lite gave him. Seems like the matter about the tree of might is getting out of hand. Frieza has gotten his hands on it. Reading all that let Darc his headache worsen.

´How the hell did Frieza get his claws on that tree now...And knowing that Lite met with Frieza just tells me that Frieza now knows about the surviving Saiyans.´, thought Darc and closed his eyes.

Darc spread his senses all over the universe to feel Arkis. Finding her he connected with her per telepathy.

*Hey there, Arkis.*, said Darc. *I hope I don't bother you at anything.*

*Sweetheart...*, came back from Arkis.

*Huh?*, exclaimed Darc.

*I want to be called sweetheart. I read that humans give names to their loved ones.*, said Arkis back.

*...*

*...*

*Alright, sweetheart...Say, what is going on there in the northern quadrant? Should I get worried?*, asked Darc now.

*Frieza wants to meet you. The war over the Tree of Might is getting out of hand here.*, answered Arkis.

*Wait, Frieza wants to negotiate? Did I hear right?*, asked Darc once more after being surprised. He knows Frieza was not really evil because just to be evil but he was more of someone that could still be somewhat reasoned with if both parties benefitted from it. Why else would he conquer planets and sell them later on? If he just killed everything, there would be no customers. Without customers, it wouldn't make sense to do so.

*Hmm, alright. I will be there.*, answered Darc and locked onto her signature and used instant transmission.

----

Right after he did so he was beside Arkis and looked around. They were on a planet with lush greenery and forest. And one could see the Tree of Might in all its glory in the horizon.

"Well, that tree is huge...", said Darc and looked at Arkis who was smiling at him happily.

"Good to see you again.", he said and she nodded. "So where is Frieza right now?"

"At these coordinates.", she answered and transmitted him the data on his omni tool.
