Slim, who had been pale from using his talent, looked like an old man with one leg in the grave. His eardrums had been burst from Victoria's talent earlier.
Yet, in an instant, Slim beca new again, the only sign of his last injury being the bloodstains on his body.
Still kneeling, Slim raised his head in shock, looking at Tarkan as if he were so sort of alien.
Tarkan, who had used the tir to heal him, simply patted Slim's shoulder and smiled.
Slim's shock only lasted for a mont before he returned to his plain expression.
"Thank you, Master Tarkan," Slim said.
Tarkan just smiled and shook his head. No matter how hard he tried to make Slim stop addressing him as "Master," after a day or two, he would return to it. At least Tarkan was able to settle for "Master Tarkan" instead of outright "Master," which made him cringe whenever he heard it.
Another thing he was happy about was that he had finally figured out how to use Revert after its upgrade to 1:5.
At first, when it upgraded, Tarkan had tried giving a command to revert five milliseconds, but it did not work. It turned out any command to the tir below one second was invalid.
He had been frustrated for a few days when an idea struck him, instead of commanding the tir directly, he could give the command to revert to the actual mont he wanted. Surprisingly, it worked.
But instead of the milliseconds he had hoped to see on the tir, the seconds only went down after the ti he ordered for the Revert accumulated to one full second. Only then would the tir decrease.
Tarkan was a bit disappointed by not being able to gauge the tir precisely, but he was still happy he wasn't wasting it.
Two weeks quickly passed, and in that ti, the twins didn't dare co out of their room. It was as if they did everything they wanted inside without venturing out.
At first, one of the spaceship staff responsible for their food noticed the ss on Victor and Victoria's table and quickly suspected sothing was wrong.
She went to knock on their doors and asked if they were okay, to which they both replied that they were fine.
Ricky, who had been the cause of all the ruckus, was now behaving himself.
During that ti, Tarkan finally learned more about the twins' background from Ricky.
It wasn't what he expected, especially considering how cocky the two had been.
Tarkan found out the person in control and founder of Tharn was their father, and the twins were just two out of many, many of his children.
Tarkan couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
From the way the twins had acted, you'd think they were so kind of royalty, boasting about their background. But in reality, they were just clueless brats.
According to Ricky, their father was rumored to be a powerful ascender in the second dinsion, and that was about it.
Tarkan didn't look down on the man. He knew anyone who could found a city like Tharn had influence and power. But still, Tharn was only one city among many in a low-tier world.
Scrolling through an application Ricky had recomnded for him to install, called YesNet, through his bracelet, Tarkan was seeing information only accessible to Tharn residents. He wasn't disappointed. When he reached their destination world, he planned to register his ID to change his feed to the world's ip.
Tarkan kept scrolling through posts, which only got weirder the further he went.
> Feeling sad awakening a D-Rank talent.
Under the caption was a photo of a fully grown man sitting alone on a bench, looking at the sky like a sorrowful prince.
At first, Tarkan thought the man was really feeling down about the rank of his talent. But checking the comnts under the post changed that belief.
A number of different girls had posted revealing images.
> Hey, Mr. Handso, am also lonely.
One comnted this under her own picture, showing revealing parts of her body.
> I'm a good housewife and I'm ready to have your babies.
> I am *****
..
And many other nasty comnts followed.
Tarkan was shocked. If this was what won were willing to post under the guy's comnts, what would be sent to his private chat?
He couldn't help but lant bitterly in his heart, feeling a sense of loss. He had only found out about this when he was leaving Tharn.
"I think the day I see the God of luck, we're going to have a brawl," Tarkan cursed under his breath.
Going back to YesNet, he continued seeing even more exaggerated posts.

In a faraway place, a young-looking girl was playing with an orb.
"Hachoo!"
She sneezed.
"Who the hell is cursing ? It must be that… that wretched witch of misfortune. You will die an untily death!" the girl also cursed under her breath.

Tarkan, after getting tired of scrolling through YesNet, joined Slim and Ricky to eat at the table.
He was bored on the ship. The workers told him it would take a month and so days to reach their destination, and only two weeks had gone by.
He wanted to enter the dinsion, but was stopped from doing so.
Feeling bored, he decided to check his panel.
