Meanwhile Apoloniusz was enjoying Pangu's discomfort and slowly it was becoming incredibly hard to not laugh out loud at that, but his fun stopped short with the arrival of Marta who narrowed her eyes as she spoke, "My beloved husband what are you trying to do, with that 'ornamental' saber that my father gifted you on my wedding."

Apoloniusz sweated at that as he tried to placate, "nothing dear nothing I was just showing how majestic this saber looked nothing more right Pangu, right.", as he repeatedly gave small winks to Pangu from his left eye.

Marta face palmed herself with exasperation as she spoke tiredly, "I hope you were not trying to intimidate the boy, you and I both know we both approve of him as a potential suitor for our daughter."

Apoloniusz snorted at that, "hmp, you do not know how important the ritual is, since as long as this Universe existed countless fathers or brothers have followed this ritual when they speak with their daughter's or sister's boyfriend, and I should remind you that Father-in-law did the same with me and in a far distant future I could see Pangu doing the same."

Marta's hair shadowed her eyes as she clenched her hands hard, "So that is why you adamant about sending Apolonia and me away so that you could perform the 'ritual' of yours, is that correct?"

Apoloniusz nodded at that as whined, "Yes, but it is now ruined you broken the atmosphere, all the preparation is wasted."

Marta: "I see", before she raised her face giving a sickly sweet smile as she spoke, "Well then I think one week on the couch will do you good."

Apoloniusz stood upright as the saber fell on the ground with a loud clang as he shouted out in disbelief, "What!!!"

Marta in faux surprised tone spoke, "oh my!, you want it for more than one week, then will two w….."

Apoloniusz by then was on his knees as he clasped his hands together and spoke, "Oh my beautiful G.o.ddess I swear I will never intimidate Pangu and I will give him my blessings with any hitch."

Pangu could not help but smile at the scene the previous nervousness and fear gone from him but the man really has a point as such he stood up bowing before Marta and Apoloniusz who gave a curious stare towards him, "I want to apologize for trying to pursue any relations.h.i.+p with your daughter without seeking for permission as such even though I have been late still I would want to ask for permission.", he took a deep breath as he spoke again, "Mr. Apoloniusz and Mrs. Marta will you bestow me the honor of pursuing relations.h.i.+p with your daughter."

Both Apoloniusz spoke in a serious tone even Marta looked serious, "Pangu what would you do if I would if I were to refuse."

Pangu spoke with great conviction, "I only want Apolonia to be safe and happy, her safety and happiness is the most important thing for me in this entire world, for her if require I am willing to make the entire universe as my enemy."

Both Apoloniusz and Marta stared at him for a few seconds before the shared a small smile, "Pangu you have our permission to pursue relations.h.i.+p with our baby girl, but", their aura flared as an insane bloodl.u.s.t hit Pangu with full force as they spoke again, "We will make sure even death will seemed an impossible and unreachable dream."

Pangu nodded at that, "I would rather kill myself before causing Apolonia any grief."

Marta clasped her hands with happiness, "I am so happy today, oh and Pangu please from today onwards call us 'Amma' and 'Abba'."

Pangu nodded at that he could not wait to share the wonderful news with Apolonia as he took permission to leave Marta's voice came to his ears, "Pangu I want to play with my cute grandchildren so hurry up.", causing him to blush red.

As he neared Apolonia he found her sitting near a lake sh.o.r.e as he stared into the water, he quietly tipped toed towards her before hugging her from behind as he nuzzled his face on her neck taking in her sweet heavenly scent, Apolonia was startled before she leaned into his embrace enjoying it with her eyes closed.

They sat there for sometime in silence basking in each other's presence before Apolonia broke the silence, "What did Abba want from you?"

Pangu spoke with a smile, "I asked for permission to pursue relations.h.i.+p with you from your parents and well they basically gave me permission to marry you."

Apolonia's eyes widen at that as she spoke in disbelief, "My love you are not joking right."

Pangu smiled kindly at her the same smile that set b.u.t.terflies inside her stomach the same smile which caused her to fall for him in the first place as he spoke, "Apolonia since the first time I met you have been a true friend to me, you have always stood at my side at my glory as well as my defeat you have taught me the true meaning of love and sacrifice, as such I ask you will accept my love and give me the honor of spending the rest of my life as your 'Dao Companion'."

Apolonia had tears of joy on her face as she hugged him repeatedly saying 'Yes, Yes over and over again.'

Before she and Pangu shared a kiss full of pa.s.sion and love.

Meanwhile,

Inside her room Megara sat as she hugged a life sized doll which bore the resemblance to Pangu as she spoke about her daily life to the doll.

While the entire fiasco of the vault was going on she was busy searching for Pangu with the help of his 'sisters', but as time pa.s.sed on she became more and more impatient and started to show psychopathic tendencies recently, it worried everyone as such her parents with the help of Pangu's ex-family had forced her to stay inside within her room with great effort, but then she became even more unhinged, she created a life size doll of Pangu started talking and treating it as if a real one, sometimes she cried begging for mercy while other times whenever she was reminded of Apolonia she cursed her threatened her with intense hatred, which recently had increased a lot as what she was currently doing.

While her parents watched and shed tears from the shadows watching their beloved daughter descending further and further into madness because of her mistake causing Neaera to wish, 'Please Pangu please come back and save my daughter.', while inwardly knowing how futile it was as he had already cut off any relations.h.i.+p with his 'betrayers', but what mother doesn't want the best for their child.
