Novel Bin Chapter 362 Returning Home
--AN) more chapters on the way!--
The air outside was as normal as it could get but as they slowly made their way back to the city, Blake couldn\'t help but feel that things were very much amiss. "Lillia, I know I just asked but really, where are all the zombies?"
"I am not sure. This is very strange. With all the rain of death, this place should be flooded with undead. It\'s like it never rained in the first place." Lillia really had no idea how to answer this question because there should have been tons of zombies around with all that rain but now….
The group quickly returned to Destiny City to see the walls were still intact and that the area was slowly being cleaned up of all the dead bodies. "Quickly burn the corpses! We want this place cleaned up before Lord Blake comes back!"
A young woman in military duds was giving orders to the orcs and other races, helping with moving the bodies. "Looks like things are fine."
"Isn\'t it a given with all the people we have trained and helped grow stronger?" Lillia felt proud the people of Destiny City were able to hold out on their own.
"Yes but I still can\'t help but worry about them. We may have grown in number over the past few years, but we lost almost half our population during the last war. I do not want to go through such a thing again." Blake hated knowing his own people had died. He hoped with Gemini\'s help, they could grow to new strengths.
"To see so many races gathered together…. Husband, you have really built a utopia!" Gemini was surprised to see so many races working together. If this was her era, it would have been unheard of!
"This is only possible because of Blake. Even during my era until the great war that sunk the entire world into chaos, the races would not even think of working together or even building a city like this." Lillia explained.
"I see. Husband is really a great man!" Gemini\'s opinion of Blake rose to even newer heights.
"Ah! The Lord is here!" A voice came from overhead. It was a male fairy who seemed to be in a panic. He flew down in front of Blake and waved his hands about. "Lord, please! Please do not go into the city just yet! Go back to the palace, I beg of you!"
Blake looked at the little fairy, who seemed like he was definitely hiding something and sighed. He did not know what they were doing, but he would play along. "As long as nothing bad has happened, I will go play with my kids."
"Haha! Lord, do not worry. Nothing bad has happened. Just wait and see. Give us until tomorrow!" The male fairy grinned widely before looking at the newcomers. He then flew down close to Blake and poked him in the cheek: "Lord, Lord. Did you pick up some more wives? Are they princesses? Did you pick up more princesses!?"
"You! You and your entire clan are picking up bad habits from Mina!" Blake snorted as he shooed the laughing fairy away. He could hear the little fairy yelling out: "The Lord is picking up princesses again!"
Lillia was at the side giggling away, while Gemini was stunned at how close the people were to Blake. To have your people feel comfortable enough to tease you and joke around with you shows just how good of a leader he was. His people saw him as their ruler and friend at the same time.
"Blake has done a lot for everyone here. He goes out of his way to help those he can. But he is ruthless to his enemies. While at the same time, if they are willing to submit, he will turn those enemies into friends. The orcs here used to all be Blake\'s enemies, but now they work hard for Destiny City and live new lives. Ones where they are not oppressed by their king to go into battle." Lillia explained. Gemini was trying to take all this in because it was much different from how her people ruled the land. While they did not enslave people, they still took a tax, but here everyone works in harmony. Doing what they can.
Blake only made it to the wall when he heard many small voices yelling from on top of the wall above him. "Papa!!!!"
Multiple figures came flying down towards him, causing Blake to panic as he reached out, trying to catch each little girl as they fell. Lillia had to help because they all came at once. "You girls! Scare me to death!"
"Hehe! Papa and Mama Lillia would catch us, so we were not scared!" Yulia grinned widely, showing her big pearly white teeth. She was the daughter he had with Josline.
Blake sighed and rubbed the little girl\'s head. "Don\'t do dangerous things like that again. I do not want a rain shower of my daughters." Blake looked around and saw that two girls were missing. "Where are Destiny and Pue?"
"Big sister Destiny and Little Sister Pue are in the training area with Mama Clance," Kelly answered. She was the daughter he had with Erica.
"Alright. Let\'s all head back to the palace. Your Mama Lillia and I are tired from our trip." Blake smiled as he picked up two girls and placed them on his shoulders. One climbed up onto his back and hung from his neck. He held two in his arms while another climbed up the front and hung from his neck on that side. Some hung on to his legs while some hung from whatever spot they could find on his arms. At this point, Blake found it hard to walk!
Lillia couldn\'t hold back her smile. Even the residents of Destiny City were taking pictures of the scene. They always found Blake\'s interactions with his daughters to be very cute. The more Gemini watched on, the more she realized how lucky she was to have chosen Blake to be her husband. He was loved by his people and his family. She was not concerned about how many wives he had. It was normal for such men like Blake to hand thousands of wives. She was happy to know that her future offspring would grow up with a father who would care for and love them deeply.
Lillia slowed her pace a bit and whispered to Gemini. Gemini nodded her head in response and placed her hand on her belly, casting a bit of magic on it before whispering: "Don\'t worry, Sister Lillia, I will follow the main wife\'s rules."
