RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse

Princess Danaphine looked at the city in front of her in amazement. It was nothing like her home, filled with smokestacks and other machinery. It was a blend of science and nature. The buildings, while made of stone, were very intricate and seemed to be part of the ground itself. Plants grew up the side of the buildings adding a touch of color to the gray stone. But what made her amazed was the colorful art and holographic images floating in the air. There did not seem to be any kind of devices that were projecting these kinds of things. "Are you sure you want our technology?"

"Yes, while it may look like we are highly advanced, and in some ways we are, our technology is based on my world's original technology," Blake explained. "We never got to the point that you are at now."

"I guess in some ways you are more advanced than us, and we are more advanced than you, but Blake, can you, um, move your hand?" Princess Danaphine's face was bright red. Blake looked down to see that his hand was cupping her breast. He did not mean to do this and had not even realized it until she had said something. But he could feel her perky nipple hardening under the palm of his hand.

"Well, I could, but then you might fall," Blake replied teasingly. Princess Danaphine stared at him for a moment before turning her head. She did not wish to fall. Even though she knew this man was taking advantage of her, she did not wish to fall. At least he was not squeezing.

Seeing her not saying anymore, Blake did not say anything and adjusted his grip so that he was now holding her waist. This caused Princess Danaphine to glare at him. Blake chuckled as he said: "Alright, I am sorry."

"Yeah, right." Princess Danaphine snorted as she made sure her grip was solid on Blake's waist. She did not want to fall, so she could only hold on tightly to him.

"Now that you have seen my city let me show you what we are up against. Hold on tight and close your eyes, I am teleporting once more." Blake warned Princess Danaphine since he had failed to do so before. She quickly held on to him, burying her face into his chest and clenching her eyes closed.

"We are here." Blake was high in the sky, so things down below did not look all that big. But he did not dare to get too close to the devils.

"Those are the devils you talked about?" Princess Danaphine asked. Her eyes widened when she saw the people in chains. There were even a few she saw being eaten alive. "This is horrible…."

"Yeah. Let's go before they notice us. I also can not stand to look at this scene any longer." It was a real hell on earth. The forest that was near the original sight where the gate had been located was now nothing but barren earth that stretched out for miles, even beyond the spot he had originally destroyed to get rid of the reglios.

Blake then went to the hole where his city once was and landed near the edge. Princess Danaphine looked at Blake, confused as to what was going on. "This place is?"

"This is where Destiny City started. Now it floats in the clouds out of harm's way. For how long that peace can last, I do not know. I know your people are stuck in the middle of the ocean and are quite safe there for the time being, but I do not know how long that will last. At some point, you may come under attack by the devils. This is why I brought you out here, to see with your own eyes. To see that I am not lying when I say a great threat has appeared on this planet.

"You saw the massive door. That door is called the gate to the underworld. A realm with much more powerful foes than I that are on par with the gods. Maybe even more powerful. But we, my city and its people, and the people of this world, are left to fend for ourselves. While we do have a few gods on our side, they are not as powerful as the strongest on the devil's side. Even my wife Ishtar is no match. But we will fight until we know we can not win before leaving this world." Blake began to explain.

Princess Danaphine looked up at Blake, who was staring out over the water which an expression that showed true sadness. "Leave this world?"

"We will go out into the stars…. Find a new world to settle on and hope we can live there." Blake reached up with his hands towards the sky and let out a sigh. "But I worry. While we have enough mana crystals to sustain us for quite some time, we do not know if we will be able to reach a new world that would have mana on it. Mina, my wife, is made up of mana. She can not live in an environment without it. A lot of my people are the same. They are all mana based life forms born from the mana itself.

"Even my daughter fate, who is a half, will require mana to live. While some of us will be fine many of my people and my family might die. I can not have this. So I do not wish to leave with so many unknowns. Of course, I have not said any of this to my family or those under me since I did not wish for them to worry, but I can only hope. Hope that things will never come to that. As long as we can fight and defeat the devils and push them back through the gates, we can reclaim our world." Blake gave a long sigh. It had been eating at him. He had talked big, but he knew there was a slim chance the world they came upon, whether it was Mars or another planet, it might not have mana on it. He could only hope.

Princess Danaphine looked up at Blake and felt, at this moment, this man seemed weak yet strong. He was someone who cared for his family and his people. "If we form an alliance, will you be willing to protect my kingdom as well?"

"Naturally. Even if I have to squeeze your entire population into my city, I will figure out a way. We have a lot of land still unused, so it could be possible to fit a few million more people. But I am unsure of what the future holds and do not know if I will be able to save all of your people." Blake really did not know what would happen in the future. The devils might just do a full out attack on their little island, or they might just never find it at all. But he did not know if he could save everyone. He still had to think about his own people first.

"It's enough to try. I will speak with my father. We will work out a plan of action. But…. I wish to come to your city and act as a liaison. Between our kingdoms."
