RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse-Chapter 497 A New Development
"So these reglios are truly plotting something then…." Vount sighed as he scratched his head. "I will need to speak with the elder council. But if we do move, it will be quite a bit of us. We do not have the means to protect everyone around us from the reglios. We have our blood donors we must protect, or we will not be able to eat.
"As for the other humans, they still count in the tens of thousands. Our continent did not get hit as hard by the dragons. Only the major cities. They did not open portals on our side and flew in from this continent. It did not help that my clan also assisted in killing off many of the dragons that reached our territory. We fought long and hard until just recently. Our country, until the mana wave, had a few million humans, but most turned into monsters. Only about a few hundred thousand survived. But those numbers quickly dwindled. Starvation, murder, death by monsters. Even some strange new race of humans that ate other humans and monsters. Only the survivors of this made it to the city my clan is stationed in. While it was half destroyed in the initial onslaught, we have kept one power plant working this entire time. And have a community of around two hundred thousand." Vount explained.
"Those few hundred thousand are enough to make any reglios go crazy at this time. Currently, Destiny City would need time to house so many. We still have an influx of refugees as well. Plus, we have been taking in many other clans as well. Our numbers are nearing two million alone. But thanks to my wife, we have a barrier around the city that makes it impossible for the reglios to infiltrate. They couldn't take it down even if they tried. If you can come with us tomorrow, I will take you there so you can see for yourself what Destiny City is like. And we can make preparations to help you and your people settle in." Blake wanted to take everyone in to protect them from the reglios until the reglios were taken care of. He did not know if he was being selfish or how many more people were left in the world, but he had to stop the reglios's plan.
"I would love to see your ci…." Vount suddenly stopped talking when a figure appeared out of nowhere.
*Chomp!*
"Joy…. Why are you here!?" Blake pulled the young girl off his neck and looked at her with a furrowed brow. His daughter should not be out in a dangerous place!
"Papa!" Another voice came from behind him. He turned to see Destiny running over. Behind her was Nanaya.
"What's going on?" Blake was confused. He did not know why two of his daughters were here. Especially Destiny, who is supposed to be hidden! "Nanaya, explain to me why Destiny is outside the barrier!?"
"Husband, relax. Mother made it so Destiny's powers could not be detected, and we came here for good reason." Nanaya waved her hand, and a large golden screen appeared in the sky. In it was Destiny City or, more like, outside Destiny City. Dead… thousands of dead.
"Reglios?" Blake asked, but Nanya shook her head. "No, we do not know what is going on. These people suddenly dropped dead without even showing any signs of anything wrong. Mother even checked the reglios in the shadows, and they were also dead. This is something that is killing not only the other races but the reglios as well. We do not know what is happening, but we are keeping a close eye on the situation. So far, no one inside the city has died or shown any signs of being sick."
"So tell me why you brought me two children out here if there is some kind of plague going around!?" Blake was angry. His baby girls should not be outside the safety zone if some kind of disease was on the loose!
"Papa! Don't yell at Mama Nanaya. We can not get sick. For one, I am a goddess, and Joy is protected by a barrier. We can not get sick so easily." Destiny tried to calm the situation, but Blake was still mad.
"That is not the point! If the reglios, the underworld's equivalent to a powerful being on this world, is affected, that does not mean that demi gods and gods can not be affected! We are going back! All of us!" Blake turned and looked at Nanaya, who looked to be on the verge of tears, causing his eyes to soften. He reached out and placed his hand on her head. "I am not mad at you. Just mad in general. The other girls should also have thought of this, but they did not. You all know how overprotective I am of my family."
"Mmm… I am sorry." Nanaya slipped her hands around Blake's waist. She then looked over at Destiny and Joy and mouthed an apology. They both mouthed one back.
"Alright. We are going back to Destiny City now. Everyone stay close." Blake yelled out. Vinea and Mile quickly ran to Blake's side while Vount stood a few feet away. Joy and Destiny stood next to their papa, and within seconds, they were all standing inside the walls of Desinty City.
"Now, this is impressive!" Vount was amazed at the sight before him. High-rise buildings. Flying cars running on magic. It was something he never thought would be possible.
"Father in law, I want you to come with me as we figure the situation out. I will take you on a tour of the city later." Blake said as he walked to the main guard's house to see who was on duty.
"Huh? Oh, right!" Vount still needed to get used to this new way of being addressed. What Blake did not seem to notice were two things. First, he left Dreg back at the campsite, giving a lap dance to a tree, and two, that none Nanaya nor his daughters saw anything strange with how he addressed Vount just now. He did not know that Ishtar had already spread the news about the new sisters.
When he walked in, Blake saw Bret staring at paperwork with black circles around his eyes. "Bret, how is it?"
"We still do not know the cause. Our scientists have all taken blood samples from all the races, and there is nothing strange. We even took scans of their bodies but nothing. They just dropped dead."
