A Journey That Changed The World

Archer looked at the large insect-like monster and replied as he pulled out a piece of bread. ”They will become my soldiers and I will use them however I want to.”

The Chull Queen made a chuckling sound as she commented. ”I like your attitude. Can we join, strange boy? I sense you mean us no harm and want to help but expect something in return.”

He chuckled before responding, “Pledge your oath to me, swearing to become mine in mind, body, and soul. Only then shall you be welcome.”

The queen looked at him for a minute before she nodded her big head as she started her oath and Archer soon felt a connection between the two.

That’s when she sent out a message to all her spawns not to attack him. After that, she looked at him and spoke. ”Okay, when do we leave?” 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t

Archer smiled when he heard her question and replied. ”Not yet. I still need more mana to leave this place and transport my Monster Army to my domain.”

He got up and remembered something. ”I will name you Valariana. It will make communication easier.”

After speaking he took out another bracelet as he approached the queen which caused her Champions to react but she ordered it to stop.

Archer handed it to Valariana who took it with a smaller pincer before asking. ”What is this?”

He went on to explain its function and it’s a way to contact him if there was any trouble which she agreed to do as he left.

Once he stepped outside the Chull Drones stepped aside for him as he took off and went to look for more Netherbeasts he could collect.

After a few hours of flying Archer found and destroyed a massive herd of dinosaur-like creatures while leaving the strongest ones alive, which he forcibly recruited.

The attack earned him loads of experience and he continued to fly around attacking anything he saw.

Another week passed, and he found himself perched in one of the largest trees in an endless jungle he had stumbled upon a few days earlier.

He has been traveling back to the cabin using Gate because he didn’t have an issue using it in the Nether Realm.

As he sat high up in the tree and thought about what Netherbeasts he’d collected so far. He managed to get all types.

From angry monkeys to large snakes. He was pleased with what he’d gathered so far and also came up with a plan to house them.

He would expand the domain by using all his mana and make different terrains for them and their prey.

Archer would use the Stone Men to gather up other beasts and throw them into the domain to call home.

He lost track of time since he’s been in the Nether Realm but he hoped the girls were okay and knew they could access the domain and talk to each other using the bracelets.

As he was lost in thought Aura Detector picked up pings coming from below him that caught his interest so he peeked over.

That’s when he saw a group of large spiders running through the jungle while hauling dead creatures behind them.

Archer jumped off the branch and started following them for a few miles until they came to a cave which they entered.

He followed behind them and scanned one.

[Nightmare Cave Spider]

[Rank D+]

Archer got excited as he could collect some Cave Spiders for his Army. So he activated Aura Detector to look for the Queen Spider.

He soon found her a mile away from him deeper in the tunnels. Archer strolled down the webbed-covered tunnel while whistling a tune from his childhood on Earth.

When he got deeper he cast Cosmic Shield so he didn’t have to fight any of them.

The Cave Spiders kept attacking but his Shield blocked all the attacks. He ignored them as he walked into the queen’s chamber.

Archer looked around to see it covered in silver webbing which lit up the room. That’s when several attacks flew at him.

But he easily dodged them as he looked for the queen. He soon found her in the back and made his way over to her.

She was the same as Vivienne with a half-human and half-spider body but she had jet-black hair with four bright red eyes.

The woman turned to him with an angry look as she let out a strange sound and all the spiders around her attacked him.

But he was faster and cast Crown Of Stars multiple times. The violet motes appeared out of nowhere and shot out.

They pierced the spider’s bodies causing them to explode which shocked the queen who started backing off.

When Archer saw this he spoke in a friendly tone. ”Can you understand me Spider Queen?”

She stopped as she looked at him in confusion before she answered in an exotic voice tinged with fear. ”Yes. Why are you here demon?”

Archer laughed before he looked for a place close by to sit down and found one.

He soon sat down and spoke. ”Well, I’ve recruited the Chull and Ant queens. I wanted to know if you would like a new home?”

When the spider queen heard his answer she became paranoid as she warned her children to back off and not attack.

The queen came closer and scanned him with her four eyes, she couldn’t sense any lies. so she grew curious and commented. ”How do you talk to me?”

Archer smiled before replying while he started eating. ”I don’t know. I can understand every language I’ve come across so far, and it’s been useful.”

She just watched him before asking. ”What do you want?”

”I want you to serve me and fight in my Army.” He answered honestly.

When the queen heard this she became angry as she declared. ”We will not fight in your army. Now begone.”

Arched laughed as he remarked. ”You really don’t have a choice. You either serve me or die.”

She became enraged but Archer cast Mana Manipulation and sent a sharp blade made of mana at her.

It stopped just before it pierced her neck, his quick actions caught the spider queen off guard.

As she started to panic, Archer’s voice reached her. ”Your world is dying. Your children will die, why not join me and live longer?”

He stood up and walked closer. ”You want what’s best for them yes? And what’s better than their own realm to grow strong in?”

The queen looked at him and relented before nodding her head. ”Yes. I want them to grow strong.”

Archer’s smile grew bigger as he explained. ”Well if you join me I’ll make sure you and your children grow much stronger.”

She continued to stare at him before sighing. ”Okay. We will join you. I sense you no lies. What do I do?”

He went on to explain the mana oath and what she had to do but before doing any of that he decided to name her. ”Your name will be Aeliana.”

Aeliana looked at him with question marks in her eyes but Archer explained. ”It’s easier to communicate with each other if you have a name.”

She nodded her head and started to take the mana oath which pleased him greatly. After that, he said farewell and left after giving her a bracelet.

Archer left the spider lair and started hunting in the jungle. He killed many Netherbeasts who wouldn’t surrender.

He came across hundreds of more dinosaurs, he killed some of them but recruited all the stronger ones.

Archer was now standing in a clearing covered in the blood of some monkey beasts he hunted and killed.

One of them managed to scratch him but he watched the wound heal instantly which shocked him at first, but didn’t bother with it anymore.

When he stopped watching the injury he cast Stone Warden and ordered the little stone loot goblins to bring him the hearts.

He did this every time he butchered a group of Netherbeasts. After getting all the hearts he cast Gate to the cabin and passed through it.

Once he was inside he saw Llyniel sitting comfortably on a sofa reading, while the spirits flew around her.

When Llyniel heard him she looked up and a smile appeared on her pretty face before greeting him. ”Hello Arch. How are you?”

He smiled as he joined her on the sofa. When Archer sat down he grabbed the little wood elf and started hugging her while playing with her long brown hair.

Once they were both comfortable he told her about all the Netherbeasts he captured and killed which made her happy.

She looked at him and asked with an innocent smile on her face. ”When can we return home? It’s been months already.”

Archer thought for a second before answering. ”It shouldn’t be too long now. I will hunt more in the next couple of days and see how much I level up.”

Llyniel nodded her head as she leaned forward to kiss him before she crawled onto his lap and the two got even more passionate.

He cherished their kisses, for in those moments, he witnessed a different side of Llyniel who had more courage and wasn’t shy.

As their lips met, the sun dipped below the horizon, cloaking the land in darkness.
