RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse-Chapter 482 Course Of Action Part 2
Blake fell silent for a moment to collect his thoughts as he continued: "So my idea from here is to make a life for everyone as normal as possible. While we do not need to do much in this sense, we want our new residents to feel as if Destiny City is now their home.
"As some of you may know, my original plan was to have a world where everyone could be free. No oppression, no wars. A place where people could live peacefully. Unlike how things have been now and before. Money is not to become a thing of power either.
"As my family and I will not die and will only grow stronger, I can now say that after all these years, the power to make sure I can keep those I wish to protect safe is now in my gasps. While I still have a long way to go, I will not let you all down when it comes to protecting what we have all worked hard in building up." Blake fell silent again as he looked at the people in front of him.
"Why you being all sappy for, My Lord?" Bret asked with a teasing grin. "We all see you as our king. Our ruler. You have long accomplished your goal in our eyes. Once you allowed everyone, no matter the race to come here and live freely as we wish while trying to accommodate for each race's traits, we have already fallen in love with your ideals and the way you rule.
"You are the one hit hardest when any of us die. And to top it off, you are the one who stands at the front to protect your people while trying to allow them to grow. We all know you want us to live lives better than no other, so you do you. We will follow your rule. And if you start turning into a tyrant, we will just burn you at the stake." Bret threw in a jab at the end, which made everyone in the room laugh. Blake scratched his nose as he nodded.
"Then, for now, we will continue as we are. We will take in any and all refugees. As long as they want to seek refugee here, we will do all we can to help. Let's not build a world like the past ones. We will build a new world. A world where every man and woman, no matter the race, is able to walk freely without fear of being attacked. We will push the technology of old and new together and do more than just spend time here on this world. We can expand and go out into space and travel among the stars. With magic and new forms of energy, we can do so much more than we ever thought possible.
"Let ring in a new era. We will keep watch over the reglios and build up our own highly advanced technology to deal with what is to come. The more we are able to progress in a short time, the easier our lives will be when things really hit the fan." Blake wanted to be ready for everything but at the same time not limit what they could do. He wanted to keep advancing. Make bigger and better machines. With magic, nothing was beyond their means anymore.
After the meeting was over, all but Lillia, Tina, and the other girls, along with Bret and Mike, were left behind. Blake was also there, sitting back in his chair. "Blake, are you serious about going out into space?" Mike had never heard Blake talk about it, but he had to admit the idea was quite interesting.
"Of course. If we can expand to other planets and begin a network of mining, we can do much more with materials that might be different from others. I mean, what if other planets in the solar system have mana on them and have been building up rare mana created materials? Wouldn't this mean we could find resources that we can not find on earth that are unique to other planets? Even if it is a super hot world, we can all survive there as long as it is not an area that blocks the use of magic.
"If we truly wish to advance more into the future, we need to expand our horizons. Destiny City will soon become A kingdom. Well, in fact, we can be considered as such now. Once we have taken over a larger territory, we can even be considered an empire. But we have to do things slowly for now due to the barrier that we are using to kill reglios can only be extended so much without putting too much strain on Ishtar here. She is still maintaining a connection to the Astral Domain and keeping her own floating island safe.
"But this just means we need to figure out another means of creating a barrier that is just as powerful as the one she is keeping up now, even if it means using tons of resources. These resources might just be something we can find on other planets as well. So we need to have Destiny City in a place where our magic tech surpasses the old technology of our time." Blake had many ideas, but it would take time to develop. He hoped with this new influx of people, he could find a few bright minds who would be able to help achieve many of his goals.
"You are right!" Bret slammed his hand on the table. "I will have a few people go through the current refugees and ask what their talents are. If we can put them to work in a lab working towards a better future, then we can offer them some extra perks."
"This is a great idea!" Blake nodded. "I will leave it to you two then. Send some soldiers out around the city and post up a recruitment drive with people with special talents from engineering to artificial intelligence. Runic inscriptions and other magic based talents. Thardra is already our head researcher, so ask him to help in placing people into the right spots."
"We will get right on it."
