RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse

At this time, in the main square of her city, Grace stood on the platform that was used for all events or notices to the people. Grace was accompanied by Tobie as well as Heio. It was not just the three of them, though. Jay also stood at the side with a smug look on his face. He was trying to hide his anger a bit due to his earlier plan failing him. But he made sure to have a backup plan just in case.

Grace looked at Jay and asked: "If you start shit, Jay, I do not mind burning you like I did your lackey."

Jay shivered slightly, but he could not back down. His current status was on the line here. "Just say what you have to say. I will not interrupt you."

Grace snorted before looking out over the crowd. "Today, I called you all here for one reason. A great threat has started to make its way across our world. One that is so great that the enemies we thought were invincible were almost wiped out and forced to retreat.

"But do not rejoice just yet because they are not on our side. The race we call the reglios are on the move. They are looking to wipe out all the bigger clans. They do not want hostages but the souls that dwell inside of us. It might sound like fantasy, but then again, magic, too, was once fantasy for our human race. Dragons. Cat girls, you name it, they were all fantasy to us, but now they are our reality. The soul does exist, and it seems to exist in all sentient beings. That means each one of us. No matter the race, you will be targeted.

"It is because of this that I have called you all here today. We are not powerful enough to even defend against a reglios attack. We are not able to save our own hides. This goes for me as well. I can not even protect myself, never mind everyone in this city. This is why I have decided to allow you all to decide. If you wish to follow me, you can. If you wish to stay and try your luck and hope you will be overlooked by the reglios, then you can.

"But I have decided to take refuge under the only clan in this world that can fight against the reglios. The leader of that clan, on his own, wiped out the reglios that had attacked the dragonic clan. And their numbers were in the tens of thousands. That army of reglios is only a small fraction of their strength. And their powers are strong enough to destroy this city with as little as one or two of them since they will use massive area spells that and die, taking us all out with them, just to harvest our souls.

"So because of this, I will be heading to Destiny City. If you wish to join me and seek refuge, then please move to my left. Those who wish to stay, if you think I am overreacting, then move to my right.

"I will not force a decision upon any of you. Just know that once I am gone, I am gone. I will not return." Grace's eyes were firm and filled with unwavering determination. She had made her decision.

"Your Holiness! Where did you get this information from?" A man from the crowd suddenly yelled out.

Hearing this question, Grace turned and looked at Jay, who was acting as if he did not hear anything. She took a deep breath and looked directly at the man. "From one of my own people. Are you doubting my own sources of intelligence?"

Jay's face twisted slightly. He did not expect the bitch to lie through her teeth! He wanted to shout out that she was lying, but he knew if he spoke now, she would probably kill him on the spot!

"Oh? I thought you got it from the dragonic standing at your side. I mean, if this is your source, how can we trust an enemy's words? I only ask because I heard from the people who work by your office that you were being told many things about the reglios from =the dragonic next to you. It seems to me that you have sold us out to Destiny City." The man stated without an ounce of fear. He was smiling mockingly at Grace. He had been well paid to come here to denounce her claims. He was even given a few girls to do as he pleased with.

"And? Even if this was true, what does it matter to you? Can you defeat me, or Heoi at my side here? You can't even defend against a low level dragon without the help of others. My reputation is my biggest proof. Why should I lie? Why should I lie when it involves all of yours and my own lives? " Grace asked back, but the man did not seem bothered at all.

"Then can you prove it? That the reglios are really out to kill all of us? I think without solid proof that you are just listening to what Destinty City has to say. This just makes you a traitor to humanity as well as a puppet leader controlled by Destiny City." The man's words made everyone go silent. While they were surprised by his boldness to denounce Grace, they had to admit his words made a lot of sense.

"I think I can provide that proof." A voice came from the sky.

Heoi suddenly dropped to one knee and bowed her head. "Lord, you came!"

"Heio, you know I hate those kinds of formalities. I wish you would stop already." Blake sighed as he shook his head. There were a few among the people who would treat him as royalty. While this was not wrong per se, it was still not something he liked. He only wished to put up with it in official settings. But now that he thought about it, this could be one of those times.
