Chapter 15: Son-in-law and Breakthrough Rank 6
After making his mind, Nova fully concentrated on his next tasks; Cultivation, cultivation and more cultivation.
He first started by using the Energy Pond, and after feeling the rich time energy coming from it, he felt delighted.
Slowly guiding the time energy in his Soul World, he started absorbing it like crazy creating a vortex inside of him. It was at that moment that his Limitless Ability and Apex Bloodline completely synergized and helped him improve in every aspect of him.
Nova could feel his strength and speed rising, his mind was also elevated to a new height. Even his senses were a few times higher.
For a while, Nova even forgot himself, it was the first time he could feel the \'hunger meter\' in his Soul World subside for a bit. He was glad about that, as the worrying thoughts he had before seemed to come to an end.
-----
Vientienne Family Planet, Core Area.
A high pitch shout resounded that scared almost every family member who heard it, wondering who made their little princess so angry to the point of screaming.
"Ahh, that jerk...! He even stole my first kiss and lied about his identity. I\'m so angry!!" said Imperia, feeling aggrieved.
"WHAT, WHO DID WHAT TO MY LITTLE PRINCESS?!" A domineering voice of a middle-aged man was heard behind Imperia.
"Dad!" It seemed that the middle-aged man was Imperia\'s father.
A man who looked to be in his 40s was suddenly behind her. Imperia\'s father had red shoulder-length hair with red eyes, unlike his daughter, who had blue ones.
He stood at two meters tall, and looked like a fierce lion ready to eat whoever made his daughter angry.
"Dear daughter, what happened to you?" Asked Imperia\'s father.
Proceeding to explain what happened when she was in the dungeon, Imperia told her father all the details from the beginning to the end.
After listening to his daughter, Orion Vientienne\'s emotions fluctuated from anger to shock, finally to amusement, and then back to calm.
He was angry when he heard how his daughter lost her hand to a little boy, one that barely awakened for a day.
Shocked when he heard about his mysterious bloodline. Pretty amused when she said how they talked and laughed, and he completely calmed down when he heard the boy\'s last name.
\'Normally, it would be impossible for this Nova kid to be on Earth if he\'s part of the Space-Time Shrine. But I definitely know of two persons who went missing for around 20 years already, and have just returned less than 24 hours ago at the Space-Time Shrine.\'
Thought Orion, as he remembered his good friends, Martin and Arin. He even thought of introducing Imperia to meet them and form a connection.
"Imperia. What do you think about him?" asked Orion as carefully and softly as possible.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Imperia was baffled by her father\'s reaction and question.
"I mean, what do you think about this Nova kid?"
Orion probed once again.
"Well, even though I was restricted in Stage and Rank, he still almost got me, and you know better than anyone that even though I couldn\'t use our family\'s flames, my Gravity Ability is not a joke for a Rank 5 or 6 to take on."
"Oh, so you have a good opinion of him." Orion smiled.
Imperia was a little confused seeing his father like this, she also said, "Also, he is a great guy who has big dreams. He\'s not powerful but sometimes has an aura around him that makes it so that no one could question his decision.
I guess he\'s also pretty handsome, but only a little..."
Saying so, Imperia threw her thoughts on Nova out of her mind.
"Hahaha, that\'s good to hear. I decided." Orion laughed.
"What?" At this moment, Imperia was once again confused.
"He\'s going to be your husband. " Orion dropped a bombshell, causing Imperia to freeze on the spot.
And once again, a high-pitched scream resounded in the Vientienne Planet, making one wonder what happened.
"What do you mean by that? How could you possibly decide my future husband just like that? I\'m your daughter for god\'s sake." Imperia raged at Orion.
"Well, you were the one who said that he wasn\'t too shabby, in fact, you think he\'s cool and handsome, right?" Orion said to his daughter that started blushing a little.
"Y-You can\'t tease me like that!" Imperia protested once again.
Orion smiled, before his expression became resolute once again. "Then you will rather want to start a tournament for your hand in marriage? And maybe a strange guy will win it and..." Orion couldn\'t finish his words before Imperia cut him off.
"Stop, stop! I get it! Just don\'t ever think of organizing a tournament for my hand in marriage." Imperia slouched her shoulder and looked defeated.
Orion smiled before thinking to himself;\'She\'s so gullible and easy to tease. I just hope that guy didn\'t actually fool her and has feeling for her, otherwise...I\'m going to personally cut his dick.\'
"Don\'t worry, I was just kidding before. But I like to see my cute daughter being so honest with herself." As Orion said this, he turned back to leave.
Imperia, "..."

One hour later...
In the energy pond, Nova slowly opened his eyes and sneezed. \'Who is talking about me? What the heck...\' After his distracting thoughts disappeared, Nova focused on his body.
His eyes were a deep grey with a little bit of white and blue stars floating around his pupils. His white hair had additional grey bangs around the edges.
The energy pond not only helped Nova break through Rank 5, but also to Rank 6. Something like that was extremely hard for someone like Nova, who had Limitless as an ability.
After feeling his newfound power, Nova thought again to his first confrontation with Imperia. He felt that if he were to just punch her right now, she would most probably directly die from a single one.
After focusing again, Nova first wanted to modify his techniques but decided against it for the moment. He\'ll firstly absorb the space energy for the next 23 hours, before exiting the mountain and doing it then.
As he was currently in a race against time, he wanted to see his parents before deciding what to do next.
