Darc talked with his mother on the phone after coming out of the shower. He already had changed into some new clothes. It became a habit to always have his DynoCaps on him with some clothes and food in them.

"It will just be a night. I will be home soon...Yeah, don't worry...Huh?...Why do you know that its a girl?....MOM! Who the hell told you that again!?.... I am hanging up now. See you later.", he said and hung up. After that, he sighed.

Someone couldn't keep his mouth shut again. I guess his mother somehow had a way to get the information she wanted.

After going into the room that was provided to him Darc put most of his stuff on a cupboard and started meditation. He wanted to see how much he improved from his fight today.

Sitting cross-legged and staying quiet he slowly fell into meditation and could finally see the inner workings of his body.

Looking closely at it, he saw that his meridians didn't improve that much but still were close to a breakthrough. He also felt more ki circulating inside his body.

He was satisfied with that state and travel inside his inner soul where he was inside the white room again.

Then he looked at the board and analyzed his stats.

So he became twice as strong after that fight. That´s really something. No wonder the Saiyan is a warrior race. They basically got a cheat to push them to greater highs every time they get hurt.

But he also looked confused. Shouldn't he be just about the same strength as that alien guy? Why was he nearly twice as strong now? He did notice another talent that he seemed to have obtained.

´Pure Progress? Isn't that the ability to get stronger in a fight? So I am now the same as Frieza and Jiren it seems. As long as I push myself to my limits there will be no boundaries whatsoever. If I train, I get stronger. If I fight, I get stronger. If I get hurt, I get stronger. Wait, that isn't right. That actually should probably be part of my wish. After all, Pure Progress is like the Saiyan Power (Zenkai) but at the same time, it's actually a tier higher in that regard that I don't need to get hurt at all as long as I just fight a stronger opponent. No, that isn't right either. Goku also probably possessed that talent. He also always improved while fighting without getting hurt. Well, I guess that's a good thing to have. I shouldn't think so much about it. I only need to know that I can improve myself with no limits. Together with my unlimited potential, I can go even further. Good.´

He smiled at this realization, left his soul state and started to run his ki in circles to see if he could break that bottleneck he got.

Every 5% in his meridians looked like to be a bottleneck. He noticed that he could push his ki further while powering up and effectively push his limits more. Becoming stronger. It was like an amplifier and every 5% gave him another 2.5 amplifier. So if he could break that point to 20%, he could finally push his power to x10 if his theory was right. And his ki quality would also improve with that if he was right.

But even after trying the whole night it didn't work out. Guess it was wishful thinking for him. He would need a stimulant for improving again. It truly became harder and harder to improve his meridians.

Waking up from his deep meditation he was all drenched in sweat. He sighed and went to shower again. At least he didn't feel exhausted.

Today they would investigate the spaceship as soon as Tights was here. Well, that is if she actually comes here today.

Going over to the living room and walking past the kitchen he already saw Ms. Briefs preparing something for breakfast.

"Good morning, Ms. Briefs.", he said to her.

"Good morning to you too, Darc", she said after looking at him smiling. "Did you sleep well?"

Darc smiled at her reaction. "Like a stone", he answered.

"Breakfast will be ready soon. Just wait a little bit, okay?", she asked him and he just nodded and went to the living room.

Bulma also came over at this time. "Good morning."

Both Darc and Ms.Briefs dittoed to her.

"So, when are we gonna go look at the ship?", she asked him.

Darc saw her eagerness and looked at his watch. "We will wait a few hours and see if your sister gets here. If she isn't here by that time then we will go ahead and look at it without her. I can ask her about Jaco then when we get back."

"Hmm, she should be here by then. When it comes to getting new material to look at she always gets crazy with it.", she said.

"So she is like you, huh.", he asked her

Bulma stayed silent at that remark. Her sister was also pretty smart and had her quirks so she didn't deny that fact. "Am I that bad of a person?", she asked.

Darc arched his brows. "I didn't say that though? You are unique if I had to say anything. Not many people get focused on something so wholeheartedly like you I guess. Not even I am completely crazy about fighting. Even if it looks like that sometimes."

Bulma got a little blush but narrowed her eyes. "So you are saying I am a crazy person?"

Darc chuckled. "Why are you being so insecure about yourself and ask so many questions? You do not lack much. Hell, I am pretty sure you even know you look beautiful and all that but just ain't confident enough about your social skills?"

She stayed silent and right at that moment the door rang. Bulma stood up "I am going to open up."

Darc nodded and waited for her to come back. Dr. Briefs also came over and as always Tama jumped down to get itself comfortable on Darc. If he could take this cat with him he probably would. It somehow was pretty attached to him without him knowing why.

"Hello, mom and dad.", said a young woman after arriving at the same place as them.

Dr. Briefs smiled "Hello, Tights. Good to see you again." He seemed pretty happy about seeing his daughter again. She did look like someone who was traveling around.

Ms.Briefs also came over to greet her "Hello, dear. Its good to see you. How have you been?"

Tights grinned "I have been fine. It's good to see you two are healthy as always." Then she looked at her father. "So, you called me about some material I can get?" Her eyes sparkled at that moment.

Dr. Briefs chuckled. "Yes, that friend over there found a spaceship that you could look at but he also needs your help contacting Jaco." Hakase pointed at Darc and Tights looked at him and eyed him up.

She then came over "Arent you still a kid? How come you want to get into contact with the GP?"

Darc looked her up. She still had her long blonde hair from when she was younger and her black eyes stared at him in curiosity. She looked a lot like her mother. She had that same young forever image as well. He knew she was about 25 but she didn't look more than 18 years old. Those genes in this family truly run deep.

"You don't look much older than me though?", he said in protest.

She chuckled "I am already over 20. So I am much older than you.", she said and sounded pretty proud about being above him in age.

He only snorted internally since that would change pretty soon where she probably would love to be younger again. "Well, you look pretty young for being at your age. I thought you would only be about 18."

"Well, aren't you a cute fella to compliment me like that.", reacted Tights with a smile.

Bulma got a nerve struck at that moment and interrupted them "Hey, how about we start talking about the spaceship instead of flirting around.", she said in protest.

Darc and Tights look at her and arched their brows.

"I guess we should get to the point.", he said after sighing.

"Yeah, don't want my little sister to get too jealous for no reason", dittoed Tights.

"What!? Who is jealous of you!? Compared to you I got more to show.", raged Bulma out of the sudden.

One could hear a nerve popping inside Tights head "You little! You are still a brat without any experience and you tell me something about that!? You want war again? You know I can still do the things I did when you were younger!", she lashed back.

Bulma got flustered and remained silent.

"Whoa, girls, calm down.", said Darc but he immediately got attacked "Stay out of this!", said Tights and Darc only awkwardly backed away and scratched his head.

Better let this two calm down on their own.
