Chapter 523 The Sky Calls Part 2

"Citizens of Destiny City!" Blake's voice rang out over the city. "The time has come for our great city to take to the skies. With the world turning towards chaos, we will go to the one place that will allow us to be safer than anywhere else on this planet. The sky. It calls us, asking for us to use it as our new home. From this day forth, a new barrier will be placed around the entirety of the city. You will no longer be able to pass through it in order to protect you and your young from accidentally falling off.

"Destiny City will be seen as a new hope for those living on the ground. We will be actively searching for settlements and taking as many people as we can in. We will raise our buildings taller than ever before and build a wider area underground to expand the size of our sky island. With that being said, please go inside, stay indoors, and wait for my word during the process of the detaching phase. I would recommend a room with little to know items that will fall on your head. You have one hour to find a safe place to wait out this process. But when things are done, the skies will be ours." Blake cut off his transmission there. He turned to see Lillia smiling at him. Even in times like this, when things were uncertain, he was still giving people hope for a future. Lillia really couldn't help but fall in love with him all over again.

"Is it okay to stay in your transformed state?" Lillia asked. She was not complaining in the slightest.

"Mmm… It is permanent unless I cancel it myself." Blake replied as he pulled Lillia close, his hands reaching down to her butt and squeezing it gently.

Lillia bit her lip as she glared at Blake. Now was not the time for these kinds of things! She playfully slapped his chest as she pushed away from him and took a few steps back. "No teasing. We will have time for that stuff after we deal with the other things."

"Alright! I won't tease you anymore." Blake chuckled as she sat down in front of the huge crystal in front of him. "Once the city is in the air, we will need to start working on defenses. This is already tuned to make a huge cloud bank under the island to keep people from seeing it from the ground while making the top half transparent, allowing us to see the ground below. We will need to reinforce the bottom and shape it to be more fortified. Then we will need to outfit the bottom with the proper weaponry."

"There is still a lot to do. Luckily we already planned to do this long ago. But I never thought our idea would need to be used to keep us safe from a threat other than the dragonic." Lillia sighed as she sat next to Blake and leaned against him.

"Now matter what, we will need to protect our people. Our lives. I do not wish to lose everything we built up. I would rather freeze time and send you girls and the kids away to the Astral Domain than allow any of you to die. Of course, I would need to stay, but my life for all of yours is worth it." Blake did not want to die himself, but he would prefer to keep his family safe no matter what. He would sacrifice himself for their well being. This was just how much his wives and kids meant to him.

Lillia was quiet. She knew Blake was willing to do anything for them. She just wished they could always be safe without a worry in the world but this world…. One thing after the other…. "Blake…. Even if you hate me, I will not allow you to die. You are more important than anything else in my life besides Destiny and the little one in my belly."

Lillia rubbed her stomach. She had only just found out recently that she was once again expecting. Even though it was dangerous, she still went out to fight. Since she knew her power was needed.

Blake looked at Lillia and pinched her nose. "Don't do stupid things. Take care of yourself from this moment on. You know I am strict with my wives when they are pregnant. If I had known before the war I would have not taken you with me…."

"I know! That is why I did not say anything. Blake you have to understand we, your wives are not weak. We are strong and are able to stand by your side. So do not give up hope. If things really do turn out bad by that time, even if some of us die, at least we put our all into fighting for our home, our beliefs." Lillia hugged Blake's waist and rested her head on his chest. "While it is great that you wish to protect us all if it means sacrificing you, I think all of my sisters and your own kids would want to fight at your side. Especially now that things are even worse than before.

"We could not stop the gates from opening even though we tried. We can only run to the skies and start a new life here. But if things truly get too bad, I think with all of us gathered together, we can help Sister Ishtar to open a portal to the Astral domain and put the entire item in the skies there. Death is not the first option. It is the only option after everything else fails." Lillia's words sank into Blake's heart. At some point, he was not thinking correctly. He was thinking about how things were now that if they could not survive even in the sky, then he would need to somehow send his family away while protecting their retreat.

Blake let out a sigh and kissed the top of Lillia's head. "You are right. You are very right." Blake smiled as he began to stand up, bringing Lillia with him. "It's time."
