Aisha smiled before bowing to him as she bid him farewell, ”I shall see you soon, My King. I’ll continue looking after the kingdom until you get back.”

Archer grinned while stepping forward and kissed the woman on her cheek before opening a Gate to the arena entrance and dragging Fianna through it. This made Aisha laugh, but she smiled as she went to bed.

When the couple exited the portal, they appeared outside the arena only to be hit with heavy rain and wind. He quickly cast Cosmic Shield to cover them as he offered, ”I’ll walk you back to where you’re staying.”

The Duchess gave him a grin before responding, ”If you wouldn’t mind. This shield is convenient in such weather, and I don’t want to get my hair wet.”

He happily replied, ”Let’s go.”

Afterward, the duo started walking toward the tent city and noticed some people were still awake. The wood elf guards patrolled the roads and greeted Archer with a nod, causing Fianna to thank him, ”Thank you for letting me join you. It was interesting.”

Archer nodded with a charming grin, ”You’re welcome, Fi. We should do it again.”

”We will when the right time comes. I’ll be heading back to the empire after the Qualification Round ends,” she informed him.

He gave her a nod in response as they continued walking. The heavy rain was still pouring down, drumming against the canvas roofs. Flickering torches dimly lit the temporary streets, casting long shadows on the muddy ground.

The atmosphere was bustling despite the weather as people hurried to seek shelter or attend to their nightly tasks. Fianna pulled her cloak tighter, trying to shield herself against the cold.

Archer walked beside her, his cosmic shield still protecting them from the worst of the weather. After ten minutes of navigating through the maze of tents, they finally arrived at a fancy large one near the edge of the camp.

“This is it,” Fianna said, gesturing towards the tent. “My temporary home.”

Archer nodded, a hint of sadness flickering across his face. “I suppose this is where we part ways, then.”

But before he could say anything more, she stepped closer, her eyes locked. Without a word, she reached up and gently cupped his face in her hands before pulling him into a passionate kiss.

Time seemed to stand still momentarily as he was enveloped in the warmth of Fianna’s embrace. The world around them faded, leaving only the sound of rain and their hearts beating.

When they finally broke apart, Fianna looked into his eyes, her own filled with emotion. She whispered before turning and disappearing into her tent. “Goodbye, Archer,”

Archer stood there for a moment, still lost in the intensity of their kiss, before he shook himself out of his daze and watched her go. After a little while, he turned and returned into the night, the memory of Fianna’s touch lingering on his lips.

Afterward, he was about to leave when he heard an angry voice behind him, ”Who do you think you courting, boy? The Duchess is a married woman!”

He turned around to see three human guards who were staring at him like he was some criminal, which caused him to chuckle before responding, ”What can you three humans do?”

The three men bristled with anger, but the man in the middle spoke with a voice full of hate, ”We will inform the Duke, and he will go to the emperor!”

Archer started laughing but soon calmed down as he glanced at the man and spoke smugly, ”I don’t care what the Duke or emperor say! I can do what I like, and I’ve already claimed the Duchess; she’s mine, as you saw with the kiss, and there will be much more. Fianna may give me some children of my own.”

He turned around to leave but felt one of the men charge forward, causing him to grin as he cast Blink to get behind the man. When Archer reappeared, he picked him up by the neck, saying, ”You’re the stupid one, aren’t you? Why would you rush at a dragon willing to kill anyone?”

After speaking, he grabbed the top of the soldier’s head and his collar before tearing his head off and throwing it at the man in the middle as he spoke while being covered in fresh blood, ”Now look, one of Duke Rylon’s men is dead. Do you two fine humans want to join him?”

The two men went completely white before rushing off. Archer chuckled before pulling out the soldier’s heart as he threw the body into the Monster Army section of the domain. Once he was done with that, he returned to the treehouse.

When Archer reappeared in the treehouse, he saw Teuila and Ella teasing Sera, who was getting angry. He watched this before speaking up, ”If you two keep teasing her, I’ll punish both of you.”

The two girls ceased their conversation abruptly, their expressions lighting up with wide smiles as they redirected their attention to him. However, they promptly resumed teasing the dragon girl, who appeared to grow increasingly irritated by their antics.

Archer disappeared suddenly, leaving them bewildered as they glanced around, only to vanish together. In the blink of an eye, the group found themselves in Archer’s bedroom.

With a suggestive smirk, he warned, “Now it’s time for your punishment.”

He leaned in and delicately the dresses of all three girls, marveling at the distinct beauty of each booty. Teuila boasted a firm, rounded ass that appeared meticulously sculpted, as if perfection embodied.

Ella’s buttock was firm yet shapely, complementing her petite frame perfectly. After admiring Teuila and Ella, he turned to Sera, who greeted him with a grin. Her booty was curvaceous and round, highlighted by her wide hips and thighs, all framed by a slim waist.

The sight of the three girls ignited his primal desires, prompting him to lower his pants and remove his shirt. Positioning himself behind Sera, flanked by Ella on her left and Teuila on her right, Archer leaned closer, noticing her glistening arousal.

With a smirk, he couldn’t help but comment, ”Oh, you’re ready, Sera? Seems like you know what’s about to happen.”

Archer started licking the dragon girl’s flower, driving her to start moaning, but as he was getting into it, he started to fade, which shocked him at first. He remembered the orb and guessed it was Sia needing help.

He kissed each girl on the forehead before speaking, ”Sia’s in trouble. We will carry this on when I return.”

Following the kisses, he hastily pulled up his pants, only to realize he was now shirtless. Despite this triviality, urgent matters demanded his attention. Archer materialized in a dimly lit clearing, the sounds of battle echoing in the distance.

Archer focused, activating the dragon tattoo’s power to locate Sia, who he knew couldn’t be too far away. That’s when he soon realized that a horde of bandits must have ambushed her and the soldiers, causing him to react instantly and start butchering the attackers.

He used his tail to pierce one man’s chest while slashing another, causing blood to fly everywhere. Archer started to make his way toward Sia when he saw her fighting a huge man using a Warhammer while she held a sword and shield.

Without wasting time, he cast Blink and appeared above the bandit leader, only to fall right on top of the man as he tore into him like a wild beast.

The leader was utterly helpless as Archer pounced on him with the ferocity of a wild predator upon witnessing Sia’s condition. With a swift strike, his tail pierced the man’s legs, eliciting agonizing screams. Yet, before long, he ruthlessly extracted the man’s heart and stored it in the Item Box.

After that, he quickly dealt with the rest of the bandits, leaving none alive. With urgency, Archer looked around and saw many injured soldiers. He decided to heal them with Aurora Healing, directing it toward the wounded soldiers around him.

Their wounds closed one by one, and their pain faded under the gentle glow of the healing magic. As the soldiers gradually regained their strength, their gazes turned towards Archer, their savior, in awe and gratitude.

Among them, the female soldiers watched him with admiration and curiosity, their eyes lingering on his toned figure.

Unaware of the attention he was receiving, Archer was shocked as a force collided with him, and he stumbled back slightly, surprised. Before he could react, Sia, with eyes filled with relief and love, threw her arms around him and pressed her lips against his in a passionate kiss.

Caught off guard, Archer’s initial shock melted away into a tender reciprocation of the kiss, his arms instinctively wrapping around Sia, who loved the affection she was receiving from him. But soon, the two separated before he asked, ”What happened here, my love?”

”We were hunting some jungle beasts, but the bandits ambushed us out of nowhere,” she explained while catching her breath.

Archer nodded before Nyctros sent him a message saying the shadow army was ready to bring him everything, which made him smile even more. He quickly explained, ”Don’t get scared, Sia. They belong to me.”

As she was about to reply, hundreds of shadow creatures appeared before Archer and knelt which shocked everyone there including Sia.
