"Before we start anything, I should go to the bank and get my savings out and get enough supplies to live off of for a while. I also need to go home and get more clothes…. My phone and my laptop…." Blake had a lot to plan for, now that everything was truly real. It was clear that things were different now than before since he had a true dragon sitting in his lap.

"Hmmm? Home? You have a home of your own?" Lillia's ears perked up as she raised her head.

"Yeah, well, it's more of just a room, but it has a small kitchen and bath attached," Blake explained.

Lillia suddenly stood up and clapped her hands. "Wonderful! I will go with you. I would like to see the world you humans created after so many years."

"Wait, hold on. You want to come with me? Lillia, you do know I had to crawl through a small hole to even get to this location. I am not trying to be rude, but your breasts will make it hard for you to even squeeze through there." Blake was not against bringing Lillia with him. In truth, he did wish to bring her with him so he could at least have bathroom facilities until the day the apocalypse happens. He also felt bad that she was stuck down in his cave all by herself. But the hole to get out was too small, and he couldn't have her blowing up the ground just yet either.

"Hmm? I can just teleport us out?" Lillia tilted her head to the side with a confused expression as if Blake should have known from the start that she could do such things.

"Ah? Well… Then if you can teleport us out, then I see no reason why you can't come with me. But what about mana? Don't you need mana to survive?" Blake asked. He was slightly worried that the current air conditions outside would be toxic to her as well. After all, this world was pretty polluted. And the city was not the healthiest of places to be.

"Mana is fine. I will just take the mana crystals here with me. This way, we do not need to come back here again." With a wave of her hand, all the large mana crystals disappeared. Such huge mana crystals were something that would be coveted greatly when they were discovered during the Magic Age. They became the new currency and were also used in crafting many things.

Blake sighed and shook his head. It seemed this new dragon girlfriend of his could do just about everything. He looked at the cute girl in front of him and smiled. "Then the only other thing would be to do something about your horns and tail… Can you make them look more like hair by chance? So that they do not stick up?"

"Like this?" The horns made of hair that stuck up fell down and joined the rest of the hair on her head, and the stiff ending of her hair loosened and fell into place. Now Lillia looked no different from any other human.

"Perfect. We can leave whenever you are ready." Blake replied with a smile.

"Then…" Lillia hopped over and hooked her arm with Blakes. She then waved her hand, causing a magic circle to form under their feet, and not even a second later, the two disappeared from the room. As they left, the whole area began to crumble. The walls, the metal doors, everything that had anything to do with Lillia disappeared in an instant.

When they reappeared, they were hovering ever so slightly over the treetops of the forest below. Blake was startled at first but quickly realized that they were not falling at all. Lillia slowly lowered them down to the ground with a big smile on her face. "Mmm… definitely a new place. Even the trees are so strange."

Lillia let go of Blake's arm and looked around in awe. The world in front of her was so alien to her that she found it all fascinating. Lillia spun around causing her black dress to rise up and twirl around with her. Her bare feet disturbing the dirt of the forest floor. She looked like she was truly enjoying herself.

While Blake was happy that Lillia was having a good time, he couldn't help but worry about her health. "Lillia, are you okay with the air here?"

Lillia, who was spinning around, stopped, her dress falling back into place. She turned and looked at Blake and took a deep breath. "Mmm… While it does seem a bit heavier, it should be fine." Lillia's cheeks began to blush as she suddenly thought of something. She lowered her head and asked: "Ar-Are you worried about me?"

"Well yeah. I mean, you have lived in a world without all the toxins that this world has. I was worried it might make you sick." Blake replied honestly while scratching the back of his head.

"Hehe!" Lillia smiled brightly. She ran up to Blake and hugged his arm. "Don't worry. Dragons are not weak. We do not get sick so easily."

"Alright then, let's head out of here. We need to hit the bank and then do some shopping before we head home. You will need some extra clothes and stuff as well. Also…." Blake blushed. "Can you make your dress a bit longer? When you spun just now, I could see everything…."

Lillia pursed her lips and waved her hand, causing her dress to flow down past her knees. "Humans and their silly rules. You haven't changed on this aspect, I see. "

Blake breathed a sigh of relief. He saw something amazing just now and had to do everything in his power to restrain himself from blushing or having a certain reaction in a certain area. He made note to buy some undergarments for the cute dragon girl. But he was indeed relieved to find out that she had the proper parts.

Before they could leave the forest, Blake asked Lillia to check which direction the city was in. it was easy to see if one climbed a tree. He had done it a few times while searching to keep his bearings. But for Lillia, she just floated up into the air and did not need to climb anything. So with their direction set, the two were now walking through the forest.

"Lillia, you said something about the second evolution earlier. What did you mean?" Blake had been wondering about this. He did not know how evolution worked. He only knew with mana returning to the world that humans had evolved to be able to use it.

"Mmm… Practice? You need to be able to expand your mana pool. Let's say when you first gain the ability to cast spells. Normally your mana pool would be enough to cast maybe one or two spells if you were born with a higher than normal mana pool. As you continue to cast spells and drain your mana, it will gradually expand your mana pool.

Slowly but surely, you will be able to gain mana greater than you had before, and those one or two spells cast will turn to three or four. As you continue to use it, the more mana you will gain until finally, you reach a point to where your entire being is saturated in mana, allowing you to evolve once more." Lillia explained.

"So basically, there is no quick way about it. I will just have to keep casting spells over and over until I expand my mana pool to a great amount. No wonder people in my past life were gaining so much power. The war was really a good way to allow people to strengthen themselves." Blake realized that once he became a soldier, that he was able to use stronger and stronger spells more and more frequently. Mana drain was a big thing during the war because it would make you feel tired and weak. But now, this mana drain was actually good for them.

"Mmm… Sadly it is a good way to rise to power faster. But luckily you do not need to wait long. We just need to get you to your first evolution. Even though you can use some rudimentary spells like strengthening, you will not be able to cast higher level low level spells until you evolve." Lillia wanted her boyfriend in name to be the strongest, and she decided she would do whatever it took to do that. Plus, what she did not tell Blake was that the higher the mana one has, the longer they will live.

"I will be counting on you then. Lillia, if there is anything I can do for you in the future, let me know. I will do whatever I can." Blake was someone who always repaid the kindness others bestowed upon him.

"There is no need to be so stiff, you are my boyfriend in name remember?" Lillia smiled and hugged Blake's arm tighter. She was happy that she met her fated one after sleeping for so long.
