A Journey That Changed The World.

Archer continued explaining all his plans to Nefertiti and Leira, who helped him improve them thanks to the cat girls' tactical genius. They criticized things while complimenting him on others.

While sitting there, the succubus questioned with sparkling eyes and a big smile, ''Why did you take the girls into the enemy town?''

He chuckled softly at her excitement, but his expression turned more serious as he revealed, ''The town guards wouldn't have attacks us as they don't want to be in this war. I believe they were forced into it because the other empires on Avidia joined the Alliance.''

''Interesting,'' Nefertiti answered while getting comfortable in the chair. ''I don't blame them if that's the case. It was stupid of you to go there, though. Imagine if it was the Fire Elves?''

Archer nodded in agreement just as the Tressyms started returning, which surprised the two young women who started pampering the fluffy cats with pets. They passed on all the information they'd gathered before swarming them.

He started laughing while getting licked by a dozen of the creatures who were happy to see him once again, causing him to point at the women and spoke with a chuckle, ''Okay stop with the affection now, these two want more of it.''

As the words left his mouth, the Tressyms swarmed Nefertiti and Leira. This made them started giggling while stroking their soft fur. He watched them pamper the creatures until they returned to the Domain as he opened a portal which freed the women.

Archer laughed at their reactions, but Nefertiti stood up before sitting on his lap with a knowing smile as she cast Cleanse on herself to get rid of the dirt. She leaned down and started nibbling on his neck, which sent shivers down his spine.

''You know I've missed you, husband,'' she whispered as her lips brushed against his ear.

Afterward, the three of them spent hours enjoying each other's company, their laughter echoing through the cavern as they bantered and relaxed. Eventually, Archer took things a step further.

With a lot of thought and mana, he created a grand hall, its vaulted ceilings adorned with intricate designs, illuminated by glowing crystal sconces. Connected to the hall, he made a spacious, elegant house, complete with cozy furnishings.

When Archer was down, Nefertiti and Leira looked at him with wide eyes before the cat woman giggled, ''You never cease to amaze me with your endless mana husband,'' she commented in a sweet voice.

Following that, they entered the place as the four Oathkeepers appeared from the Domain now he was stationary and not on the move as they couldn't keep up. This amused Archer to no end as Thalion tried to lecture him, which made the women laugh.

''Thalion, I'll let you join me for good from now on,'' he said to the stern knight who wanted to protect him. ''But you cannot accompany me if I need to go somewhere that involved flying, I'm not carrying you giants around unless I'm in my dragon form.''

The Oathkeeper Commander agreed with a reluctant nod before going to guard the outside along with a few thousands Broodmaw Warriors patrolled around the building which kept the monsters away.

Archer's senses tingled as he detected the chaos outside, creatures mercilessly tearing apart a group of Blightborns attempting to scout the building. He remained seated in the house, unfazed, knowing the defenses would hold.

Inside, Leira knelt by the fireplace, carefully starting a crackling fire that chased away the lingering chill of winter. ''Now that feels better,'' she said with a radiant smile, basking in the newfound warmth.

Nefertiti, draped in a flowing cloak, stepped forward and spoke with a soft eagerness. ''Can I cook for us, please? Ella's been teaching me, and I want to try.''

Archer grinned at her enthusiasm. ''Go for it, beautiful,'' he said warmly

Following that, he slumped down in front of the fire while Leira joined him as she started reading a book. That's when he started thinking about the information the Tressyms gave him and realized why the Moonriver Empire joined the Alliance.

'Seems like most of their people are on the verge of starving thanks to failed crops,' he thought grimly, the dire situation becoming more apparent with every passing moment.

Curious, Archer wanted to test his suspicions. Stepping out of the house, he crouched down and scooped up a handful of soil, his fingers brushing through it. He noticed a faint presence lingering within the soil, something corrupt, something unnatural.

It was as if the land itself was suffering, its very essence tainted by whatever forces had been at work. His brow furrowed in concentration as he examined the mysterious energy until he realized what it was.

''Terravians!'' he muttered.

As Archer recognized the disturbing energy within the soil, an idea sparked in his mind—one that was as dangerous as it was daring. With a wicked grin, he began pouring his mana into the land itself.

The earth beneath him hummed with energy, and a violet glow spread out from where he stood, swirling and pulsing like a living force. Eerie light spread rapidly, rippling across the landscape, rolling over hills and forests until it reached the distant town of Waterbury.

He felt the land recovering from the poison as his mana burned it away like but he continued to keep sending more into the land that sped up its healing. While crouching there, he noticed the surrounding trees lit up and become more lively.

Archer was pleased but muttered to himself, ''It will take some time but I could heal the Moonriver Empire for a price.''

Following that, Leira stepped out with curious green eyes as she questioned, ''What did you just do, husband?''

He turned around and admired the beautiful young woman who he had been with for years. 'I need to propose to her just like the others. It's about time they get a ring after all these years,' he thought.

Archer reached into his Item Box, his fingers brushing against the smooth case that held a stunning green Jungle Gem, its color perfectly mirroring Leira's cat-like eyes. Without hesitation, he approached her, the woman still watching him with curiosity.

Her sweet smile remained as she asked, ''What are you up to, Arch?''

Archer didn't answer. Instead, he gently took her soft hand in his, feeling the warmth of her skin as he slipped the ring with the green Jungle Gem onto her finger. His pulse raced as he finally spoke, his voice laced with nervousness.

''Would you marry me, Leira Avalon? Sorry it took me so long to ask, but... I'm always getting distracted,'' he asked.

Leira's eyes went wide as the ring settled on her finger, her breath catching in her throat. For a moment, everything was still. Then her expression softened, tears welling up in her eyes as a wave of emotion hit her all at once.

She blinked rapidly, trying to hold back the tears, but it was no use. A few slipped down her cheeks, and before Archer could react, she threw her arms around him. ''Yes!'' she whispered, her voice shaky but filled with pure joy. "Yes, Arch! A thousand times yes!"

Her tears soaked his shirt, but he didn't care. He wrapped her tightly in his arms, feeling her joy radiate through every embrace. At that moment, the world faded away, leaving only the two of them.

Leira, with a smile still trembling on her lips, leaned in, her breath warm against his as she kissed him deeply, passionately, as if to pour all her happiness into him in one unforgettable moment.

Minutes later, the couple pulled apart, their faces still flushed with the lingering warmth of the kiss. Leira looked up at him with a playful glint in her eyes, her voice teasing. ''Have you asked Nefi yet? If not, go do it. She's been waiting for years.''

Archer chuckled, nodding in agreement. ''I will. Once she's finished cooking, I'll surprise the cheeky succubus.''

Following that, the two of them stepped into the house, and Archer's eyes immediately landed on the pink-haired beauty. Nefertiti stood at the stove, her curves highlighted by the tight dress she wore, but it was the cooking apron that truly caught his attention.

Despite the practicality of it, the way it hugged her figure made her look undeniably sexy. She turned briefly, catching his gaze, a sly smirk playing on her lips as she caught the look in his eyes.

''Like what you see, husband?'' she said with a knowing expression.

Archer approached the succubus and grabbed her by the waist before kissing her slender neck before replying as his hand reached for her fat ass that he squeezed, which earned him a seductive smile.

''Of course I do and you know this, Nefi,'' he answered.

Her smile widened as she continued stirring the pot, casually pressing her hips against his waist.
