Chapter 557 Putting It Off
Gungnir was stunned by Blake's answer. He never thought about it like that. He scratched his head and bowed slightly as he said: "I was wrong to question your motives. If I had a daughter and Ea tried to kill her, I would also want him dead, and your idea about pulling the gods here might just actually work, but only if you attack the main island. Anu is a stubborn old fool. Unless someone challenges him directly, he will not go back on his word. He will not let other gods come here if it means he will be pulled into the fight. How could he let his fighting force which is meant to protect the Astral Plane leave? I already know the old man is not willing to face off with the devils since some of the higher ranking devils are stronger than him."
Blake raised an eyebrow. This was some news he did not know before. Or if he was told already, he had forgotten. But one thing irked him. "Didn't you come here to kill my daughter too? You are lucky to still be alive."
Gungnir pursed his lips. He looked over to see Loki flashing him a mocking smile. He gripped his fists and bowed his head fully. "I was wrong! At first, I was following Ea's orders but once I started working under you, I realized Ea's ways were wrong. I hope you can forgive me."
"You are already stuck following me what is there to forgive? Are you not repenting now?" Blake waved him off. "Anyway, we need to do two things. Argument our bodies with this new tech using magic and maybe even merging these cybernetics into a biological format so they can connect better to the body, and make weapons that can defeat even the old bastard god."
Blake had many ideas but it would take a while to figure each one out to see if they will work. Until he was able to make a breakthrough with this new tech he was not going to be able to do much of anything for the time being. His lively hood on this planet, his home was at stake at this time.
After his meeting with Blake, Lillia pulled him aside to have a long chat with him. "Blake we have to talk about our daughters."
"Ah, right the wedding…." Blake frowned. He had been busy and forgot.
"No. Not about that but this…." Lillia waved her hand. It was a recording of the sounds being heard from within the room. The more Blake heard the more he frowned. He did not know what to say.
"What do you want me to do?" Blake asked as he looked at Lillia. This look made Lillia look away. This was enough to tell him what she wanted him to do. From his memories that he got it was a normal thing to keep things within the family as Drakani were different from other races. Interbreeding happened a lot and allowed the old families' bloodlines to strengthen by a lot, but, Blake was different. He was still bound by old rules and did not know how he felt about this.
After a long silence, he finally sighed and said: "I will think about it. I can not give you an answer now. There is too much going on. I will let you deal with the two to decide what to tell them. But do not give them any answers yet."
"I will just tell them things will be put on hold for the time being. I will also explain a few things to them as well. But, if… if you do it with Destiny and Joy, the other girls will probably be asking for the same." Lillia did not know what to do about this.
"Let's do this for the other girls. Give them missions. Each one will need to complete a mission. These missions will last four years. They will go out and interact with other people. If they fall in love great. If not, based on what I decided with Destiny and Joy, we will go from there. But until our current situation is dealt with I will not be making a final decision. While I do hate the idea of my daughters being with another man, they also should fall in love like how you and I did. Of course, those they fall in love with will need to marry into our family. Whether it be a girl or a boy. And that boy will need to undergo a special contract to be by our daughter's side. One that basically makes them a slave to our daughter." Blake felt funny about all of this but, he did not wish to see his daughter's said. He would need to make a final decision in the future. But for now, things could be dealt with in this way.
"Okay, I will be sure to do just that." Lillia smiled and kissed Blake on the lips. She knew that Blake was not comfortable with this, but she also wanted her daughters to be happy as well. Clance had been worried sick about this all this time. But at least now she could go back and tell her sister that he did not straight out reject the idea.
In another area, deep underground, Trien and Iseles were raising their two children. "Dear, are you sure the surface has been taken over?"
"Mmm…. We will need to stay down here for the foreseeable future. I only dare to go up top to hunt but only if I do not sense anything. Luckily we prepared ahead of time and made an underground farm, but we did not bring enough monsters to raise down here." Trien felt bitter. His kids were now forced to live underground. He had no idea what had happened but he knew the surface was no longer safe. "Don't worry, our dragonic clan will one day rise again. I will have to trouble you to help build a bigger family for us."
Iseles blushed and nodded as she leaned against him. "We will rebuild our race from the ground up and you will be the new emperor."
