”I want strong children, and in a few years, you will be one of the strongest men on Thrylos,” Morena answered.

Archer sighed before speaking, ”Well, this is where we must part ways. I won’t give you children without being in a relationship.”

Demacia’s eyes widened, but Morena’s expression didn’t change as she replied, ”A dragon with morals? Interesting.”

After speaking, the older woman stepped forward and continued, ”I will build you a strong army, but I won’t be in a relationship with you. You’re way too old and feel like a child to me, but in exchange, you owe me a favor and cannot reject whatever I ask. What do you say?”

”As long as it’s in my power, I will do it,” Archer replied.

Morena held out her hand, which he looked out before taking. ”We have a deal now,” she said. Do not go back on our agreement, dragon boy.”

She left for the cabin, leaving him and Demacia, who looked at him apologetically, ”I’m sorry, Arch,” she said. ”Morana is intense and serious but a lovely woman who has always been there for me since I was a little girl.”

”I understand and hold nothing against her,” Archer replied. ”I just won’t lay with anyone; it would be cheating on my girls, which I’d never do.”

Demacia nodded, ”You don’t have to explain anything to me,” she beamed at him. ”I respect you even more now, knowing you don’t treat women like meat.”

Archer chuckled, ”Women are life’s wonder; they are a nightmare for the most part, but we men would be lost without them,” he commented while looking into the night sky before continuing. ”I will build her a laboratory. Do you want anything, Demi?”

”Demi?” Demacia asked in a baffled tone.

”It’s my pet name for you,” Archer answered with a cheeky smile.

This caused her to blush, and it was even more apparent on her snow-white skin, making him laugh.

But that’s when he was utterly captivated. Demacia’s mesmerizing sapphire blue eyes shimmered with mana, casting an otherworldly glow full of untapped knowledge that would help him in the future and save his life on more than one occasion.

Archer admired her flawless, snow-white complexion, which seemed untouched by imperfections. Her silky black hair was elegantly arranged in a bun, with a few loose strands framing her stunning face, adorned with features akin to a goddess’s.

He observed her tall, slender figure, reminiscent of the runway models he remembered from his past.?Yet, there was a difference—the ample curves that emphasized her form, particularly highlighted by the snug fit of her blue mage dress, which ended just above her knees.

Demacia soon noticed him looking at her and grinned, ”You can’t eat me yet,” she teased. ”I would prefer to get to know my dinner partner before he takes his first bite.”

Archer was miffed and didn’t know how to respond for a few seconds before shaking his head, ”You’re a naughty necromancer, Demi.”

After speaking, he backed away from her before closing his eyes and imagining a massive building where the two sisters could experiment. Archer poured much of his mana into creating the perfect laboratory without the equipment because he didn’t know what they needed and would leave it to the two women.

Once they had completed their new home, he added a feature to the girls’ bracelets to teleport them to Draconia, where they would be safe. It took him about ten minutes to do all this, and while he was doing it, Demacia just watched him in amazement.

By the time Archer finished, he had dropped to one knee and was breathing heavily, causing Demacia to rush to him. ”Are you okay, Arch?”

He nodded, ”Yes, I’m fine. I just used a lot of mana, which earned me a headache due to the concentration on building your new home.”

Archer pointed at a Roman-style villa that suddenly appeared behind the sister’s cabin. He made it out of beautiful Stormforge Stone that glimmered in the starlight.

The building had one extra floor, giving the two women enough space alongside their sisters, who should be joining soon as a Shadow Creature sent him a message about finding four of the necromancers.

He turned his attention back to the villa and noticed a slanted roof covering the floor, allowing people to sit out there when it rained. The front entrance was a solid wood door decorated with monsters.

Windows lined the building, allowing enough light during the day that mana lights wouldn’t be necessary. After checking out the building, he returned to Demacia, who was stumbling backward in shock.

Archer quickly caught her with a smile as she stared at the villa and then at him, ”How did you do that?”

He let go of her while explaining, ”While in my domain, I can create anything using my mana, but the bigger or more complex an object will determine how much mana it uses.”

Demacia nodded, brightly smiling. ”Thank you for telling me, Arch, but now I want to go check out our new home if you don’t mind.”

Archer agreed before she went to rush off, but Archer stopped her and said, ”Here, take this.”

The necromancer woman stopped and turned around as he held his hand out while holding a bracelet. Demaica stared at the blue gems on it and looked at Archer, ”This gem matches my eye color; it’s beautiful.”

”That’s good because you can use it to open a Gate to Drakonia City, which is the first city in my kingdom,” he explained, ”I’ll also have the Homeguards bring any executed prisoners to you and Morena so you can experiment and create an army for me.”

Demacia’s face lit up with happiness as she stepped closer to answer and kissed his cheek softly before rushing toward the villa. As she passed by the cabin, Morena came out with a curious expression until she spotted Archer’s creation.

Morena turned to him with a small smile just before she followed her younger sister into the villa. Archer watched them vanish before Lucrezia sent him a message reminding him of the two girls in Mountainholm Fortress City.

Archer quickly messaged the girls, informing them of his visit to Mary and his expected return later. Stepping through a Gate, he materialized in a hallway near the inn. Glancing around, he couldn’t help but notice the unusual quietness of the streets.

He knew the city was typically bustling with activity, but it seemed strange still, causing his senses to rise as he used Aura Detector to scan the area only to sense nothing on the streets, only the people huddled in their homes.

Without wasting any more time, Archer made his way toward the inn, only for some creatures to attack as he was halfway across the street. He reacted immediately and grabbed two of them by the neck.

His tail instantly struck out like it had a mind of its own and decapitated three creatures. When Archer looked at the creatures, they were creepy. They had sickly green-colored skin and lifeless white eyes.

They were humanoid, and Archer quickly recognized the elf ears and wondered where they came from but snapped the two creatures he held necks before throwing their corpses at another two who leaped off the nearby rooftop.

The bodies collided with them in midair, causing the monster to plummet to the cobbled streets below. Archer quickly scanned them to determine what they were.

Blightborn Elf

Rank: A

Archer cast Crown Of Stars several times, causing dozens of violet orbs to appear around him, and started firing smaller beams that wiped out the Blightborn Elves that ambushed him.

He swiftly cast Stone Warden, directing them to retrieve the hearts from the fallen creatures. With the task completed, he shifted his focus, summoning Eldritch Blasts that struck the approaching monsters.

Meanwhile, some Stone Men joined the fray, combatting the hostile creatures. He soon reached the inn’s entrance and banged on the door, only to hear dozens of locks and a wave of mana coming from it.

Archer chuckled at the security measures but had to admit they were helpful. Lucrezia’s head popped out with a radiant smile when the door opened as she ushered him inside. Once inside, he saw hundreds of people crammed into the building, which surprised him.

“Arch! It’s good you’re here,” Mary’s sweet voice said, reaching his ears and causing him to turn around with a charming smile.

The mature beauty approached him with glowing green eyes and lovingly embraced him. Archer loved being around Mary, as she was also smiling and happy. After the two greeted each other, he discovered that a Swarm army had descended onto the city and snuck over the wall before slaughtering the guards.

He nodded before kissing the two women and telling them he would clear the city using his White Dragon Knights as they needed practice. They agreed as he used Blink to get outside the inn without opening the door.

When Archer reappeared on the street, he saw the Stone Men fighting with even more Blightborn Elves. He quickly opened the Gate to the Bastion and summoned his royal guard, who appeared within minutes.

Eight hundred finely trained soldiers whom Eldric tutored appeared and crowded the free space of the street. That’s when Archer saw the black dragon knight stepping out of the portal and knelt before him.

Archer smiled as he spoke, ”Eldric! I’ve got the perfect opportunity for the royal guard to get more battle experience against the Swarm.”

The older man nodded in agreement, ”Once we clear the street, I will bring all the new recruits, Your Majesty.”

He nodded before sending Mary a message, ”We’re going on a date after this.”
