"You lost your memory? What's the last thing you remember?" Bruce Pang said with a concerned frown.

"I…" Princess Augustine hesitated slightly in confusion before her face turned cold once more. "I am the one asking questions here, not you. It will be good for you to know that I can kill you with a single thought. Now tell me. Who are you two?! Who sent you to kidnap me? Where are we?"

"Hey look here little ki-GAHHH!!!" I collapsed to the ground as a powerful wave of life energy crashed into me!

However, after a brief moment of pain, the energy calmed down and turned into a sea of pleasure instead.

"Oh wow. This actually feels good! Don't stop!" I commanded Princess Augustine as my body and my red mecha core absorbed the wondrous life energy greedily.

"Huh? You're not affected? Impossible! No living being can resist my power unless… Could it be… The Royal Blessing of Purification?" Princess Augustine's frown deepened. "Only a small handful of people can grant that blessing to you, and they are all completely loyal to the Shra-Gaz Church. Who are you, really?"

Her tone mellowed down completely as she finally realized that we were not enemies.

"As I was saying before you rudely assaulted me, look here little kiddo. We rescued you from a bus sized clam a few kilometers from here, deep within the Pacific Ocean. A root-like machine of sorts was draining your life away, and it followed us here and tried to get you back. However, because of my immense strength, I was able to kill it easily. Now, I will appreciate a simple thank you and a rare treasure as payment for all my eff-"

BAM!

Bruce Pang smacked me in the head with unrestrained strength.

"OUCH!" I roared in surprise. I felt the pain and the force behind it, of course, but it was nothing to me.

"Hee hee! Ehm. Hmm." Princess Augustine giggled slightly at Bruce Pang's actions before coughing lightly to regain her august composure.

"What was that for?!" I shouted at my big bro.

"That's for trying to weasel your way into getting another gift from her after receiving that Royal Blessing of Purification. Your greed knows no bounds! Repent!" My big bro said sternly to me.

"Wa-wait! I was the one who granted that Royal Blessing of Purification??" Princess Augustine exclaimed in deep surprise. "Why would I do that? It's a very costly process that would set my strength back for several months!"

"What?! Why would you do such a costly process for a buffoon like him?" Bruce Pang exclaimed loudly in dismay while pointing at me.

"That's exactly what I am asking. Answer my questions! Tell me everything that happened in detail! I will figure it out myself." Princess Augustine commanded with narrowed eyes.

Bruce Pang sighed and then recounted all that had happened quickly but with impressive detail and conciseness.

"What? Of course I am not a necromancer! Why would you say that?? My blood has healing properties! I was just trying to heal you!" Bruce Pang said defensively.

"My God. What a ridiculous mess. Go on." Princess Augustine placed one small hand daintily on her forehead and sighed deeply.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

After Bruce Pang was done, Princess Augustine sighed the biggest sigh I had ever seen.

"No wonder I gave you the Royal Blessing of Purification. You are technically my Royal Uncle now."

"Huh? "Are"? I am still your Royal Uncle? Didn't you lose your memory?" I asked her in surprise.

"Bonds of blood once formed are not so easily broken." Princess Augustine said grimly and then turned to her pops.

She examined him carefully from head to toe for a few seconds.

"You gave me your blood right as my power was completing its recreation of my full strength and my full being. It automatically incorporated your blood into my body. Although I am not your daughter in the way such relationships are formed, I am biologically related to you. And considering your age… I guess being your daughter is the most logical relationship." Princess Augustine sighed ruefully.

"I see…" Bruce Pang replied rather awkwardly.

"No wonder I felt an inexplicable sense of kinship when I first peeked at you just now." Princess Augustine said. "I can't believe I got myself a father. After an entire life of not having one, now I am stuck being a daughter of a weak middle aged dude."

I snickered loudly at her words. Weak middle aged dude! Ha!

But I quickly turned serious. As funny and as ridiculous the situation was, it was still one that was chock full of critical mysteries!

"Many questions remain to be answered though. What exactly is that root thing? Why are you here? What exactly is your power? Why did you faint just now? Why did you lose your memory? Did you know my big bro prior to this? And most importantly, what's the outside universe like? Are you the most powerful kingdom? Do you guys know about our civilisation? Are you guys friendly?" I unleashed a barrage of questions at her.

But I wasn't done!

"What is a familiar? What is YOUR familiar? And what did you mean when you said necromancer earlier? How do I become a necromancer?" I continued.

"Is your sworn brother a journalist or something?" Princess Augustine complained to my big bro and completely ignored all of my very legitimate questions. "Don't tell me he really is autistic?"

"He's actually quite normal, despite being so abnormal." My big bro said rather contradictorily.

"I will answer all your questions later. For now, I need to lay down for abit. What's with this very small place anyway? This little transport lizard seems very capable of carrying a much bigger lounge." Princess Augustine complained and tried to make herself comfortable.

"I didn't design this pod for three people. I meant it for myself." I replied in slight irritation. I was really looking forward to the answers of all my questions. And I was rather peeved that my supremely awesome Godzilla Dragon was called a "transport lizard"!

"Insensible. My opinion of you is really low now, Royal Uncle. Why would anyone put such a small pod on a transport lizard? It's like making a cannon and giving it a pencil sized barrel. Very, very insensible indeed. Why can't you be more normal and put in a much bigger pod? Or at least travel in a much bigger mecha. Like those two mechas that's coming our way. Those two look really comfortable. Abit weak, but I definitely would have room to relax in there." Princess Augustine said with a yawn.

I looked at Bruce Pang in alarm as I cast out my resonance.
