Chapter 21: chapter 20
Theo teleports to Akeno's house at the end of the big day, standing in front of the house knowing that I will add Akeno to my peers, and then not going inside.
Shuri, Akeno, and Baraqiel are all gathered, and then Theo sees them a little sad.
Theo: Did I come at the wrong time?
Shuri: No, we were just talking amongst ourselves, it doesn't matter.
Akeno smiles at Theo.
Theo: Can we talk, the time has come.
Baraqiel puts his hand to his forehead, looking regretful but it's too late.
Baraqiel: Ah, so the time has come, huh?
Shuri interrupts.
Shuri: We heard that you helped us, Suzaku even mentioned your actions, and I didn't know you would do this for us, thank you. If you want to marry my daughter, you have my full support.
After saying this, Akeno blushes, her face almost the same color as Theo's hair.
Akeno: O OKA-SAN, what are you saying, Theo please don't continue here.
Theo: this Isn't important. Akeno, let's get to the main point. I want you to stand by my side and walk this path with me. I don't know, maybe I want it more than you do, but the only thing I can promise you is that I will always try to make you happy as long as you're with me. So, will you join my peerage?
Akeno's eyes fill with tears, almost about to cry.
Then she speaks with a voice both tearful and happy.
Akeno: I accept to walk with you till the end. Let's find out together what our destiny holds.
Baraqiel seems to cry because he left his daughter, Theo feels weird when he sees him like this, after all, he feels like he's been likened to a bad man who stole his daughter.
Theo: Even if you join my peers, Akeno, I won't stop you from meeting your family. They are important for me too after all.
Then Theo points to Baraqiel and speaks.
Theo: Especially, I don't want to see this old man suffer because he can't see you. After all, hurting an old person would hurt my conscience.
Baraqiel: What are you saying, brat? Don't search for trouble.
Then Theo approaches Akeno and gives her a piece of the mutant bishop.
Theo: Now you're part of my family, Akeno, so let's go to the underworld together, I'll introduce you to my mom and dad.
Then Theo assures both Shuri and Baraqiel, and they teleport to the underworld together.
Theo had already introduced Akeno to Rias and Valerie, so there shouldn't be a problem.
Then they enter the house, Theo shows Akeno the room she'll be staying in, and Theo thinks about what to do next. After all, a lot has happened, even though he's only 9 years old, he wonders how scary it will be in the future, and he will report to his father, but then he sees his mother.
A strange expression appears, sad, Theo goes to her and then starts to smile.
Venelana: How are you, Theo-kun? Did you bring that new girl? Ah, you bring too many girls, do you want a harem?
Theo: Mom, don't do that, a harem? The future will show. But you seemed sad when I entered the room, what's wrong, oka-san, tell me.
Venelana sighs.
Venelana: Ah, it doesn't escape your eyes, as expected from my son. You understand women well. It's just that your father has been neglecting me for a long time, dealing with his harem.
Venelana's eyes seem to fill with tears as she speaks, then Theo hugs her gently and comforts his mother.
Theo: Mom, it's okay, don't worry. The best revenge you can take is to be happy without him. So don't be so sad.
Venelana: Occasionally, Theo-kun, who taught you to talk like this? Don't worry, my son, thank you for thinking of me.
Theo: For you, always, Oka-san.
