RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse-Novel

--AN) 3 more on the way---

Blake looked at the screens while covering Pue's eyes with his hand. She struggled in his arms but gave up after realizing she could not move his hands. Blake looked at the massive monster that had a flaming coat gulping down its food and frowned. He did not know if the parents knew this was going to happen or not, and this is why they sent the child away, but if not, then they got what they deserved. He could not see himself ever abandoning any of his children.

"Alright, let's move the drones away from there." Blake did not wish to see the scene anymore as he moved his drones back to surveying the rest of the planet to see just what kind of place it was. Once he set them on a new path, he introduced Pue to everyone. "This little one's name is Pue. She is currently a she until Lillia looks at her since she has both parts."

"Little Pue, huh?" Sara and Erica walked over and went to pat her head but had their hands swatted away. Causing Tina and Bret to chuckle. At least now Tina felt much better about this situation. "Luckily, it is not just me."

"Why is it always him!?" Sam began having flashbacks to where her daughter was born. As soon as she opened her eyes, she only wanted her Papa!

"Heh, you girls just do not know. The cute ones always want to talk to the handsome men, right little Pue?" Bret walked over and reached his hand out, only for Pue to open her mouth and bite down on it. "Ouch damn!"

"Hahahaha! So much for you being handsome!" Erica rolled on the ground laughing. She truly found Bret to be an amusing person.

Bret had a sour face as he looked at the little girl who was clutching Blake's shirt and glaring at him and then looking at the girls and his own brother laughing at him. "Hah! Whatever. I got a beautiful elf wife and a beautiful fox kin wife sitting at home!"

"Alright, I am sorry, but you should watch your words before making any actions." Blake did his best not to smile as he said this in a serious tone, but there was just no way to keep his lips from twitching.

"Laugh it up!" Bret yelled and threw his hands in the air. His yell attracted a few human monsters from nearby, which he used to release his anger on.

While Bret bashed human monsters, Tina sat next to Blake as she looked at Pue. "Blake, you checked her inner organs. Do they look bad at all due to the smoke from her world"

"Nah, they are healthy. I think the mana on their world is taken into their bodies naturally and used to protect their internals. I think if we humans had mana all along, we would have evolved in a similar way. We might not have gained a mana pool but just had it infused into our body without us even realizing it." Blake wondered if things were slightly different like mana was not fully removed from this world if humankind would have grown differently from how it did.

"It is strange how we all were made differently." Tina nodded her head in understanding. Sometimes evolution just takes different paths. But she still worried about Pue's lifespan. She was unsure how long Pue's race lived for but if the race only lived for as long as humans used to live before evolving, she did not know how Pue would take it as she grew older while everyone else was still young. "Hey, do you think Sister Lillia can do something about her lifespan?"

"We can only ask. For all we know, she could already be hundreds of years old." Blake replied with a chuckle.

"So this means you may have just stripped a few hundred year old girl of her clothes... Blake…." Tina gave Blake a teasing grin while he just shrugged. It was not like he had never seen such things before. After so many kids and so many wives, he was pretty immune to that stuff.

"Blake look!" Erica cried out. She was the only one really paying attention to the screen at this time.

Blake looked up to see a huge forest at the edge of the land of fire. In the middle of the forest, there was a huge tree that rose high into the sky. Even the clouds that looked as if they covered the entire world had come to a halt at the tree line. But as the drone neared it, it came to a stop. "Hmmm? There seems to be some kind of barrier there…. I wonder if the huge tree has something to do with it."

"Daafoo!" Pue cried out as she looked at the image. Blake looked down at Pue, whose eyes were shining with excitement. "Pue…." Blake pointed at the tree on the screen and asked: "Daafoo?"

Pue nodded and answered: "Daafoo!"

"So the tree is called Daafoo." Blake wondered if this was some kind of holy land for their race. But when he thought about the direction the refugees were heading in, it seemed they were heading there.

"There seem to be monsters attacking the barrier as well as another one of those mobile cities." Sam noticed that on the left side of the forest was a huge leg, and bright white lights were flashing down.

"What kind of people would try to destroy such a natural wonder?" Tina couldn't help but sigh. Just thinking of it angered her.

"Tina, remember, before the apocalypse, the world was also being destroyed by our own race. It's not a matter of what kind of people but the resources it provides. This could be the last forest in the entire world for all we know. That would make its resources very precious to the people in the moving city. But that tree seems to be keeping them at bay. I think it is the tree, anyway. So I think unless they can destroy the tree, that forest will be out of their reach." Just looking at the tree made Blake think of the old myths of the tree of life. A huge tree that stood over everything granting life to the world.
