The next day, Yuujin, Gokumi, and Broly awaited for Videl's arrival.
They didn't have to wait long. A fiery red figure soared from the distance before gracefully landing before them.
It was Videl.
She was now dressed in a striking red battle skirt, exuding both heroic charm and beauty, making even Yuujin's eyes light up.
"Videl, you're here!"
"Goddess, M-Master..."
Gokumi happily greeted Videl, while Videl, with slightly flushed cheeks, bowed in greeting to Yuujin and the others.
Though he found it amusing, Yuujin nodded inwardly.
It seemed that Videl had already accepted her role as a true Red Silk Girl and had adjusted her mindset accordingly.
While Yuujin and the others were once her classmates and friends, from this moment on, they were the masters she would serve and follow.
"Have you said goodbye to Mr. Satan?"
Yuujin gently patted the girl's forehead and asked.
"Yes."
Videl nodded.
Leaving Mr. Satan was naturally difficult for her, but knowing she would serve the Lord Kami as a Red Silk Girl filled him with immense pride and joy.
Recalling how her father had tearfully fussed over her departure while urging her to do her best at the temple, Videl felt a surge of emotion.
In the past, she would have been worried about leaving him behind. But now that her father had regained his spirit, found work, and no longer had to struggle for a living, she could finally chase her own dreams without hesitation.
Before leaving, Videl had also bid farewell to Erasa.
Unlike her father, Erasa had been full of complaints—grumbling about how Videl never told her the truth about the Lord Kami, or how she didn't share any benefits with her best friend.
She had also vented about Sirus being an ungrateful jerk and accused the pervert Lord Kami of denying everything after taking advantage of her, leaving Videl both speechless and amused.
Yet, after hearing about everything Erasa had gone through, Videl couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
She was now a Red Silk Girl—property of the Lord Kami.
Sooner or later, she would also experience those things…
She wasn't exactly resisting the idea, but just thinking about it made her face burn red.
"Since everything is settled, let's head back."
Unaware of Videl's inner thoughts, Yuujin spoke.
They had been in the lower realm for quite some time, and it was about time to return.
After taking one last look at Orange Star City below, Yuujin activated Instant Transmission, disappearing along with Gokumi, Broly, and Videl…
At the temple, Yuujin, Gokumi, and the others suddenly reappeared.
The female soldiers stationed nearby were startled but quickly kneeled on one knee, saluting them with reverence.
"S-So this is the temple..."
Looking around in awe, Videl was utterly shocked.
Towering futuristic skyscrapers stood alongside ancient palatial structures. Lush forests and pristine lakes were scattered throughout, blending technology with nature in a breathtaking harmony.
It was a masterpiece—luxurious beyond imagination!
Videl had often imagined how grand and magnificent the temple of the Lord Kami and Goddess must be, but the reality surpassed her wildest dreams tenfold!
More than that, the entire temple was brimming with overwhelming energy. Powerful auras flashed by as figures surrounded in blazing energy streaked through the skies.
To her astonishment, even the female soldiers standing guard nearby radiated strength far surpassing her own!
Heavens!!
"We're back, everyone!"
Gokumi called out cheerfully, and soon, several figures flew out from the distant palace, quickly arriving before them.
"Oh my, you're back! How was it down there?"
The first to arrive were Android 18 and Dark Android 18, with Android 18 casually asking the question.
"Not bad, but I missed you all."
Yuujin smiled, gently stroking Android 18's beautiful short hair.
Rolling her eyes at him, Android 18 still took the initiative to wrap her arms around Yuujin's neck, pressing her lips against his.
"Bulma, Chi-Chi, Launch, we're back!"
"Took you long enough."
"Gokumi, how was school?"
"Yuujin-san, Gokumi-san, Broly-san, welcome home."
Following Android 18 and Dark Android 18, Bulma, Chi-Chi, and the other women also arrived.
Though Yuujin and Gokumi hadn't been gone long, the temple had felt eerily quiet without them. Now that they were back, the women were naturally overjoyed.
Missing his wives, Yuujin naturally took his time embracing them.
Videl, meanwhile, stood frozen to the side, her adorable face filled with shock and excitement.
Bulma, Chi-Chi, Launch, Android 18…
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god—these are the legendary Goddesses!!!
The Goddesses were mythical figures—women of unparalleled beauty and wisdom, managing the Lord Kami's dominion and serving as the pinnacle of aspiration for all women across the world.
While people occasionally caught glimpses of Goddess Tights in the lower realm, the other Goddesses, like the Lord Kami himself, had not appeared publicly for many years.
Now, they were all standing right before her!
How could she not be overwhelmed?
"Where's Vegea? She's not here?"
After sharing affectionate moments with his wives, Yuujin asked.
"Vegea, Celipa, and Sharuru are still training at the arena. Just like you guys, those three only care about training and fighting all day long."
Bulma pouted in mild exasperation.
Yuujin chuckled. Saiyans were born warriors—what else would they do besides training and battling? Research and inventions like Bulma?
Since Vegea and the others were still training, he would go check on them later.
"Who's this girl? You brought her from Earth?"
Noticing Videl, Bulma asked.
"That's right. Her name is Videl."
"She has decent martial arts potential. From now on, she'll be part of the Red Silk Girls Squad."
Yuujin nodded, introducing Videl to the group.
"H-Hello, Your Majesties..."
Nervous beyond belief, Videl quickly bowed.
Bulma and the others merely nodded, not paying much attention.
Even if this girl had been brought back as a Red Silk Girl, she was still too insignificant to warrant their interest—at least, for now.
"Relax, Videl."
Yuujin patted her forehead gently to reassure her, then turned to one of the Red Silk Girls standing nearby.
"Take care of her. Get her settled in."
"Also, within three days, raise Videl's combat power to at least 1,000. Then, bring her to me."
"Understood, Master."
The Red Silk Girl bowed respectfully.
"Videl, work hard. Don't disappoint me."
Giving Videl a final encouraging smile, Yuujin then walked off with Bulma and the others, disappearing into their palace…
