RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse

Blake sat there running through his memories and found that dark spells were extremely powerful spells. There is one called dark void that basically sucks everything in around you into a dark void, sealing what was ever sucked inside for all eternity. There was another called death which marked a target and, after a predetermined amount of time, would kill them. It was more of a means to torment your opponent instead of killing them.

He found quite a few spells that he wanted to test out in the future. But the one spell that caught his attention was shadow meld. Blake stood up and used the spell to find himself slowly melding into his own shadow, and on top of that, he could easily move around. "This…. Is probably what the reglios use…. Shadow meld, huh? But can I store things inside my own shadow is another story. I will need to rewrite the spell to not meld myself but something else into my shadow."

Once again, Blake began pulling apart the spell and analyzing it. Surprisingly this spell was not as difficult as he thought it would be, and was easily able to switch out the self cast to a different object. He stored infinity and moved to the other side of the clearing, and resummoned her. The thing he found cool about this was that his shadow would expand to encompass the object he was melding into his shadow.

"Now that that is all set, I should begin working on the inscriptions." With this in mind, he quickly resummoned Infinity and began work on the runic inscriptions. Blake had lost all sense of time now and continued working on his golem.

Lillia watched from the side and was quite stunned when she saw Blake melding himself into his shadow and moving around but what stunned her more was when he rewrote the spell to merge other objects instead. When he saw him begin to inscribe runes on his golem, Lillia felt her understanding of golem creations was very basic! While she could do more with it and make things very life like, she could see the difference between her way of thinking and Blake's!

"He really is making me feel inferior on something I was truly proud about! But this is also good. I want to help him, but I feel if I interrupt now, he will not feel as motivated or be able to concentrate on his end goal." Lillia could only helplessly sit and watch from a distance. Watching over the man she loved.  She had already dispatched many monsters who had wandered too close. She did not want anything to disturb her husband.

Blake spent another few days inscribing everything spell he could think of that could boost a golems abilities. To test it, he even had a one on one match with Infinity to find out she was really hard to deal with now. "Still do not have sentience, but I feel that if I can get some metal made of mana, I can go even further... Unless…. I work on a runic inscription that allows Infinity to learn… if I do this, I can probably transfer the runic inscription to the other golems once I create them!"

Blake was taking on what he learned in college. When it came to computer science and artificial intelligence, Blake felt he had a decent understanding of it, even if he did not remember it all. He wanted to build a kind of neural network that would take the inputs it was given and then store it and use it as a means of understanding. "I guess it would be more of a magic brain than anything. A magic storage device. If I can create such a thing, we can do a lot more around the city as well…."

Blake suddenly felt like he had a new mission. But he had no idea how to even start something like this. He looked at his golem and waved his hand, storing her in his shadow before turning to look at all the ones he had created before and snapped his fingers, canceling the golem magic on them. They all fell back to the ground in the original pieces of metal they once were.

"Ho? To think that they would actually transform back. Not bad. Let's rebuild them and create a few more infinities with what I got left."

A few days later, Blake had over one thousand infinities with runic inscriptions. He stored them all in his shadow and went to head back to the city when he saw Lillia standing there smiling at him. "You are here? Is it okay for you to be out like this?" Blake asked, his worry evident.

"It's fine since I am not using magic at all but Blake…. You left without a word. If I did not come to check on you, myself and my sisters would have been worried sick!" Lillia pouted her lower lip as she hugged Blake.

"Ah…. Sorry, I just had an idea of how to grow a bit stronger or at least have a force big enough to defend against enemies so that I would not need to worry as much. I just needed something that would allow me to be stronger…. But once I began implementing my idea, I kinda lost myself in it." Blake explained.

"I know. You did not notice me here all this time. Or when my sisters came to check in on you. You were lost in your own world, but from what I could tell, you have made progress, right?" Lillia asked.

Blake nodded and grinned. "That I have." Blake summoned his golems. A massive metal army stood behind him. "I think this should be good for now…."

"There is a lot. But if you are willing, I can help you improve them more." Lillia looked at Blake with a bit of hope in her eyes. She truly just wanted to be of some assistance to Blake.

"If you are willing to help, I would very much appreciate it. This is my bread and butter after all this time. So any advice I can get to make even more improvements would be amazing!" Blake was already amazed that he had gotten this far on his own, but if he could get advice on his golems, it would help him a great deal.

Lillia smiled and nodded her head as she said: "Alright, then put them back except one. We will go over how to make your golems even stronger than you. "
