Chapter 225 You Were Meant To Help

The three exited the castle and continued on their journey, passing by caravans and other travelers.

As they walked, Sera initiated the conversation. “Arch, are we spending the night in the domain?”

He looked at her and nodded. “Yes, we will head back there soon.”

She smiled and moved closer to him, taking hold of his hand. Archer looked down and saw her little brown hand holding onto his.

Returning the gesture, Archer smiled back, but Xanthe noticed this and huffed silently without saying anything.

The trio traveled for another couple of hours until they left behind the forest where the bandits had been.

While walking, Archer glanced up and realized it was getting dark. So, he opened a portal, and the three of them stepped through.

Once inside the treehouse, Xanthe headed to her bedroom.

Exhausted, Archer collapsed on the comfortable sofa and relaxed. Seemingly playfully, Sera jumped on him, teasingly attacking his neck and ear.

He smiled when he felt Sera holding onto him and playfully teasing him by rubbing her lower half against his leg.

As they did that, a voice was heard from behind them. “What are you two up to in the front room?”

Sera stopped her playful actions and looked up to see Ella and Teuila standing there with grins on their faces.

Archer gently lifted Sera off him, causing her to huff but laugh as he playfully poked her side, she pecked him on the cheek and jumped up.

He approached the two and greeted them with a passionate kiss. Then he asked, “How have you both been? How are your parents, Teuila?”

Teuila replied, “They are doing well. Father managed to quell the bandit outbreaks with the help of my brothers.”

Archer nodded and turned to Ella. “How was your getaway?”

The little half-elf smiled as she replied. ”It was good, the weather was warm which beats the rain. What have you been up to Arch?”

He smiled when he heard her answer. ”Well, I got us some maids which will help the Brownies and you girls whenever you’re here.”

Ella’s eyebrow raised and Teuila’s eyes narrowed, that’s when an angry voice was heard from behind the group.

They all turned around to see Nefertiti and Hemera standing there. The pink-haired princess zoned in on Archer and made her way over to him.

She stood in front of Archer, who was looking up at her with a smile. His charming expression almost made her calm down, but she quickly composed herself.

Nefertiti then asked, “Who are these maids, and have you touched them? Why are you collecting girls, Archer?”

He maintained his smile before responding, “They appeared lifeless, and something compelled me to buy them. No, I haven’t touched them. You can ask them yourself.”

Just as he finished speaking, Thalia and Xanthe descended the stairs and halted upon seeing the group of girls.

Thalia’s initial thought was, ‘They are so beautiful, but it seems he also likes darker-skinned girls.’

Xanthe narrowed her eyes and thought, ‘Playboy, pervert. I knew it!’

Nefertiti turned to the twins and approached them. She stopped in front of them and inquired, “Who are you two? And why do you want to be maids for my husband?”

Thalia smiled, and Xanthe answered, “He offered to hire us as maids, and we have nowhere else to go. So here we are.”

The pink-haired princess examined Xanthe closely and warned, “Don’t try anything with him, you hear? I’ll be keeping an eye on both of you.”

Both girls nodded, and Nefertiti smiled before returning to Archer.

When she reached him, she sat on his lap and started kissing him, which led the other girls to show their disapproval.

Nefertiti ceased the kiss and whispered into his ear, “I want you tomorrow night, husband.”

Archer grinned when he heard her words, his sneaky hand moved up her body to her huge boobs and gently played with them.

She was shocked but didn’t stop them until Xanthe spoke in a sarcastic voice. ”Sorry to disturb you master, but tomorrow can we explore your domain?”

All the girls turned their heads toward her as Teuil approached them and said, “Don’t be sarcastic to our husband. He saved you, so be grateful, girl.”

Xanthe looked into Teuila’s ocean-blue eyes and nodded, she decided to keep quiet until she was alone with him.

After he kissed Nefertiti back, after that she got up and sat down to relax on the sofa near him.

Teuila stepped back and walked over to Archer, she leaned forward giving him a full view of her cleavage while kissing his cheek.

She stepped back and sat down next to Nefertiti who gave her a dirty look but Teuila smiled in return.

Hemera and Ella walked over to him, each giving him a kiss before sitting on separate sofas. Then, one of them asked, “So, what have you been up to while we were away?”

Archer shared everything they had been doing, and when he finished, they all nodded.

That’s when Hemera spoke up. “Father sent me a message. He said the celebration will be ready in a week. Are you coming?”

He nodded and grinned, teasingly adding, “Yes, of course! Shall I be your date?”

When Hemera heard his question, her cheeks turned red, and the other girls became jealous.

Seeing this, Archer stood up, stretched, and said he was going to sleep. The group followed behind him like ducklings.

Observing the situation, the twins, Xanthe and Thalia, exchanged thoughts. Xanthe shook her head and remarked, “He’s a playboy, sister. We have to keep an eye out on him.”

Thalia rolled her eyes and replied, “It’s clear that each girl cares for him in some way, and he seems to treat them all the same.”

The two of them then made their way back to the bedroom. As they entered, they were surprised to find Archer sitting on a bed.

However, he greeted them with a smile and extended his hand toward Thalia. When she smelled his blood, she pounced on him. .𝒎

She landed on top of him and took hold of his hand. Thalia started drinking his blood, making him laugh.

Archer allowed her to drink as much as she wanted. Seeing this, Xanthe got jealous, so he offered her some from his other hand.

Xanthe narrowed her eyes but stepped forward and copied her sister, starting to drink as well.

After ten minutes, Archer felt lightheaded, but he soon recovered thanks to his Regeneration kicking in.

The two sisters stopped drinking and wiped their mouths before Thalia spoke. ”Thank you, master. I hope we do a good job as your maids.”

Archer nodded as he stood up and opened a portal, he spoke before entering. ”Goodnight girls.”

He reappeared in his bedroom and saw the five girls changing into their nightgowns, Hemera was the first to speak. ”We are all staying in here tonight as we have been away.”

Upon hearing her, he responded with a casual shrug and a smile, then climbed into bed. He took off his shirt to get more comfortable, and as soon as he settled in, the girls eagerly piled onto him.

Ella fought Sera for a spot on his chest and won, Nefertiti and Teuila were on both shoulders while Sera and Hemera slept on his thighs.

Archer looked at this and rolled his eyes before getting comfortable. He felt like his arms were in soft clouds and he felt the Sera’s twitching ears.

That’s when his ears twitched when he heard Hemera already sleeping as she clung to his thigh causing him to smile.

As he settled into a comfortable position, he quickly drifted off to sleep.

However, his slumber took an unexpected turn, leaving him both excited and startled. It wasn’t a nightmare; instead, it felt more like a vivid vision.

In his dream, he found himself on a hill, overlooking a city under siege. Black billowing smoke filled the air, signifying the ongoing chaos.

Suddenly, the scene shifted, transporting him to a random street in the city. There, Archer witnessed a Moon Elf fighting alongside her guards and a maid.

Her guards were struggling to hold back the wave of attackers, and despite her powerful spells raining down on the horde, it wasn’t enough.

With unwavering resolve, she switched to a spear and joined the fight alongside the maid.

Archer could only watch helplessly as the woman fought bravely, but her guards fell one by one. Tragically, the maid sacrificed herself, taking a poisoned blade aimed at the woman. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚

In retaliation, she impaled the creature that had stabbed her maid and flung its body away. Then, she turned to the girl who was trying to get up but collapsed.

Devastated, the woman approached her fallen maid, her face lifeless as she crouched down and mumbled something that he could clearly hear for some reason.

”You were meant to help me with the girls, but now you’ll never see them. It’s not right. Why were they here? Where was he? He was meant to be here by now.”

The woman rose to her feet, gently closing the girl’s eyes. As she stood, she began to chant a spell, and the sky darkened above them.

She wildly cast spells into the swarm, causing explosions all over the place.
