RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse - Chapter 578: I Am Your Father, Nothing More

.

While the gods were dealing with the strongest, Blake was currently standing above the city that stretched out over the black and red landscape. “Now then… Erase….”

A strong gust of magic power surged out of Blake, was a wave of blue light spread across the city below. In an instant, the entire city disappeared while Blake stood weakened in the air. He was putting himself at risk, but he had to do this to ensure their victory. He hated to admit it. But he was not as strong as the gods. He had weapons that could deal with stronger foes, but if he were to be overwhelmed, he could still easily die.

This same thought process was the same for any lower god or higher god. In order to keep themselves while they fought with the soldiers that were housed in the garrison near the castle, Blake decided to get rid of any chance of quick reinforcements.

“You okay?” A voice came from behind Blake. He turned to see Destiny and Joy standing there.

“Why are you two here!?” Blake did not understand why these girls would show themselves. He had long sent them back to the city.

“Because we do not want to lose our father. We knew you would do something stupid to make the fight easier for everyone, and we were right!” Joy yelled back.

Blake sighed as he looked at the two girls. “Well, what needs to be done needs to be done. Both of you go back.”

“No, we will stay by your side.” Destiny rejected immediately.

“If I say go back, I mean go back! You girls need to stay out of this war. If something happened to you, what would I do? What would I tell your mothers!?” Blake was starting to get angry. Normally, these two girls never went against him, so he couldn’t help but be surprised yet angered at the same time.

“We will fight by your….” Joy wanted to say they would fight by his side but was quickly interrupted.

“Look, I know how you two feel. But listen to me here and now. Go back. As you are my daughters, that is how you will stay. I can not return the feelings you have for me. While it might not be wrong for the races that we are, I, as your father, can not do it. I just can not. I love you both dearly, but I can not see you two as women. I can only picture the two girls who have hung on my arms since you were little, calling me Papa. As a father, I would be a scumbag if I were to ever do such a thing. So all I can say after much thought is that I am your father, nothing more.” Blake had wanted to keep this in until they returned and say it in a more gentle manner, but he had no choice but to break the news now. He needed his girls to go back and return to their lives in Destiny City while he finished things up here.

His main priority was to keep them safe, even if he had to hurt them in the process. He hated seeing them cry. He hated having to break their hearts, but he had no choice. They were his family, and he cared for them deeply. He had to protect them no matter how he had to do it.

Sure enough, tears began to well up in the girl’s eyes. While it pained him, Blake still kept a face of anger. He hoped it would deter the girls and make them return, but he forgot one important thing. They were his daughters.

“Even if Papa does not love us as women, as your daughters, we can not abandon you!” Destiny’s voice was firm. Even as the tears streamed down her cheeks and her expression showed just how torn up she was, Destiny would not abandon her father.

“Yes, Big Sister is right! While we do love you as a man, we love you as our papa first. You are the man who raised us, pampered us, and spoiled us rotten. You made us into what we are today. We are stubborn and do not want to see any of our family members fall. Especially the most important person in our lives. Your courage and ability to push ahead is what kept Big Sister and my other sisters, along with myself, going strong and striving to better ourselves in the fields of interest we have all acquired over the years. Look at Big Sister Hope, she only started pursuing her dream because you told her that her dream was not meaningless. Even if Mama Tina said these words, there would be no way it would been as impactful as when you said them to her.

“Papa, it’s not just us who have been inspired by you. Everyone you have come in contact all these years has changed in one way or another. They have all gone to do the things they have dreamed of doing. Many of whom follow you blindly and worship you. But you never let them down. Working hard and standing on the front lines. You cry over the deaths of your people. You are cherished by more than just your family.

“So even if you wish to send us away, we will not budge.” Joy was filled with determination. She was not retreating on this, no matter what.

*Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!*

A clapping sound came from overhead before Blake could reply to the two girls. “Very heartwarming. Sadly, we Devils do not care for such things.”

Blake’s expression did not look good. He had already used quite a lot of power to make this mission a quick success. But now, in front of him, was a man whose power was greater than that of himself, even when he was at his peak. “Who are you!?” Blake asked, hoping he could buy some time for his daughters to escape.

“Me? I am here to kill you to end this farce!” The man suddenly flashed, appeared in front of Blake, and struck out with his claw-like hands. The sound of flesh being pierced was heard as blood sprayed.

Time stopped. Blake looked at the young girl in front of him, who had a bloodied hand shoved through her chest and out her back in shock. “Destiny!!!!!!!”
