nArcher heard each heavy step of the beast as it charged toward him.

nAs it reached him, the bigfoot swung its beefy left arm.

nQuickly, Archer activated his Draconic Form as he raised his right arm to block the swing.

nThe two limbs connected with a loud clap, and the beast looked shocked at the human boy.

nArcher fired a quick Void blast straight into the beast’s chest, sending it stumbling backward.

nHe then leaped into the air to reach the creature’s head and swung his claws, but it raised its arm to defend itself.

nArcher spotted this and pulled his claws back, instead using his tail to pierce the beast’s thigh.

nThis caused the creature to drop to one knee, and its head exploded like a watermelon as Archer fired a Void Blast into its skull.

nHowever, before he could even relax, another beast appeared out of nowhere, making him jump.

nThe creature punched him so hard in the face that it sent him flying into the forest like a white rocket.

nHe was caught completely off guard as he broke trees on his flight path and crashed into the side of a large grassy hill surrounded by tall trees.

nLying in the crater, dazed and disoriented, his body wracked with pain after being punched, he groaned and winced as he tried to move.

nFeeling the sharp ache in his ribs and the throbbing pain shooting through his head.

nThe world around him seemed to blur and spin, and he felt a sense of confusion.

nDespite the agony coursing through his body, he managed to roll over onto his back. Regeneration started to kick in and began to heal his broken body.

nArcher slowly got to his feet, and when he finally stood up, his body cracked.

nHe saw the cuts close up and bones snapping back into place, causing shooting pains.

nHe pulled out a health potion and quickly downed it.

nBetween the potion and Regeneration, he was healing quicker.

nAs he was healing, the sounds of a fierce battle could be heard in the distance.

nArcher looked around and wondered how far he had flown.

nHe started to make his way toward the battle when he had to stop walking.

nAs he looked up, he saw a massive Bigfoot standing there.

nArcher’s eyes widened when he saw the beast carrying a guard’s body on its shoulder.

nIt whooped into the air, and all of a sudden, the whole area went quiet.

nHe heard dozens of thumping footsteps heading in his direction, and over a dozen bigfoots appeared, most of them carrying dead bodies.

nAs he turned his gaze back to the bigger bigfoot, his whole body stiffened.

nThe massive beast smiled at him, sending a shiver down his spine.

nArcher calmed himself down and looked for a way out.

nHe tried to take off using his wings, but one of the bigfoots threw a body at him, sending him crashing to the ground.

nAs he stood up, the bigfoots whooped at the scene.

nLooking up, Archer spotted a branch hanging over the group.

nHe used Thunder Step to reach the spot and landed on the branch.

nQuickly looking down, he jumped back as he saw a group of bigfoots speed climbing up after him.

n“How the ** did they find me so fast?” He muttered to himself.

nHe crouched down and leaped into the air, starting to flap his wings.

nArcher spun around as he cast a fireball toward the group on the forest floor.

nAs the object struck the forest floor, a massive explosion ensued, causing the ground to tremble.

nArcher, utilizing his AD, observed half a dozen Bigfoots fleeing the area.

nOnce they had departed, he descended to the ground and noticed that everything was scorched.

nThere were a few bodies scattered about, prompting him to extract their hearts, resulting in a collection of three hearts.

nAfter storing the Bigfoot bodies, Archer dismissed his Draconis Form and began making his way back to the caravan.

nUpon his return, he was greeted with flames and damaged carriages strewn about.

nSeeking Sarwana, he discovered her catching her breath at the front of the caravan.

nAs he approached, she lifted her head and was taken aback by the sight of the white-haired boy.

n“Archer! How are you?” she exclaimed. 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝑚

nShe leaped to her feet and hurried toward him.

nHe regarded her with a curious gaze before inquiring about her kindness towards him.

n“We only met yesterday, so why are you so nice to me?”

nShe halted her stride and gazed down at the boy, fidgeting with her fingers as she prepared to respond until a voice interrupted her.

n“To be honest with you, Archer, you remind us of our late son when he was younger.”

nThe man stated, his eyes conveying the pain of their loss.

nArcher relaxed, realizing they had no ulterior motives.

n“I apologize, I’ve only recently begun encountering kind people, so I’m still getting used to it.”

nThe man started nodding and then introduced himself.

n”I am Najee Khalili, her husband.”

nBefore Sarwana spoke up, Archer nodded at the man.

n”You look and act like him, if you had brown skin, you both would have been twins.”

nHe scrutinized the woman, noting her snow-white hair, which matched his own, and her blue eyes.

nHer skin was tanned, and she had a slim yet athletic build and Najee was the same build.

nThey both looked to be in their early 30s.

nAfter talking for a while the caravan was ready to move again, the couple invited Archer to join them in their carriage and he accepted.

nArcher stepped into a cozy-looking carriage adorned with stunning decorations and plush sofas.

nThe comfortable seating and beautiful decor made the carriage feel like a luxurious home away from home

nDespite its seemingly small exterior, it appeared much more spacious on the inside, thanks to Space Magic.

nNajee recounted to Archer how he came to possess such a remarkable carriage, leaving the boy in awe of the story.

nAs they settled into their seats, Archer retrieved some chocolate and began to eat.

nHe noticed the couple gazing at him with curious expressions, prompting him to offer them some chocolate.

nNajee accepted, but Sarwana declined.

n“Where did you get that food?” she inquired.

nArcher shifted his gaze to her before responding.

n“It’s a skill I learned called storage. I acquired it before I found myself in this place.”

nShe nodded before they started talking about where Archer is from.

nNajee spoke up first.

n”So my wife tells me you come from the land of plenty?”

nArcher nodded.

n”Yes, I didn’t know it was referred to by such a name but I am from there.”

nHours passed by as they were getting to know each other, as they approached the Kagian castle Archer’s AD started pinging.

nHe jumped out of the carriage to see a swarm of the bigfoot creatures, as he stood there they started throwing large stones at the four remaining carriages.

nArcher quickly cast Cosmic Shield to defend himself and the carriage.

nThe stones smashed into the shield and he started hearing whooping and hollering, that’s when ice blasts started smashing against the defenders.

nHe quickly began casting water bolts at the Bigfoot, which he could clearly see.

nAfter taking out five of them, the attacks intensified.

nAs the earth and water blasts joined the ice ones, he kept his Cosmic Shield up until one Bigfoot rushed toward him and punched the shield.

nThe shield cracked, and when Archer noticed this, he fired a water bolt into the Bigfoot’s chest.

nIt stumbled back, and he followed up with an Eldritch Blast to the beast’s head dropping it to the ground with a heavy thud.

nWhen the biggest Bigfoot saw this, he sent even more beasts to bring down the shield.

nFour of them started punching at the shield, cracking it even more, causing Archer to panic.

nThat’s when his Aura Detector suddenly picked up on a large force fast approaching.

nArcher and the guards looked down the road to see hundreds of cavalrymen charging toward the Bigfoots.

nThe beasts noticed the reinforcements and decided to cut the party short and retreat.

nArcher heard a loud whooping, and the attack stopped, but some of the Bigfoots stayed behind and were trampled by the horsemen when they arrived.

nHe deactivated his shield and sat down, Archer wasn’t physically tired, but the mental strain had taken its toll.

nAs the bigfoots ran back into the forest some of them got run down and killed, he looked around a see around 10 bigfoot bodies laying around.

nSo he went around collecting them, in total, he got eight intact bigfoot bodies, after he was done with his looting he walked back to Sarwana’s caravan just as the horsemen approached.

nArcher ignored the soldier and started eating some pastries after casting Cleanse on himself, the soldiers stared at Archer before one of them in the back commented.

n”Why is a lowly dragon-kin here?”
