A Journey That Changed The World

Chapter 552 Respectful

Amaryllis turned to her cousins and introduced them to the six girls, looking at the three as they all sat on the large Gorillith.

She pointed to the pink-haired girl before speaking. ”This is Scarlett Blackfire. She is our magic specialist and fights using elementals.”

Sera and the others welcomed Scarlett with warm smiles. Teuila observed her closely, noting Scarlett’s long, flowing pink hair cascading down to her waist.

Her eyes, a beautiful shade of pink, glowed with mana, and she reciprocated their greetings with a sweet smile.

Teuila observed Scarlett’s slender figure and noticed her chest was smaller than Amaryllis’s. Scarlett was dressed in a black witch’s battle dress.

Amaryllis turned to the last witch and introduced her. “This is Valencia, my oldest cousin. She is our close combat witch.”

All eyes turned to Valencia, who sported short black hair and radiant violet eyes. Her physique resembled that of Teuila and Talila but was notably more toned.

She had well-defined muscles that resembled steel, giving her a robust appearance. Despite her muscular build, her chest stood out as they sat her powerful frame.

The witch in question shifted uncomfortably under the collective gaze of everyone present.

As greetings were exchanged, Sera took charge, directing the Gorillith named Kong to lead the way to the Beast Wall. “Let’s get going, Kong! Take us to the wall.”

They were all confused when they heard her call the beast, something they’d never heard. Even Kong was confused by the girl giving him a name.

Teuila turned to Sera with narrowed eyes before asking. ”When did you name the beast girl?”

Sera grinned as she answered with a cheery voice. ”Just now.”

The blue-haired girl nodded and turned to their surroundings as Kong moved through the forest.

While this was happening, the other girls talked amongst themselves while Valencia and Hemera tended to Nala and Llyniel, who were slowly recovering.

As they did that, Amaryllis observed the dense forest while they moved through it. The silence was broken only by the occasional rustle of leaves underfoot.

Amidst the shadows and foliage, she caught glimpses of hundreds of beasts, each moving stealthily as if the forest acknowledged their presence.

She saw many creatures, recognizing some stronger than their normal counterparts in the outside world.

Some were sleek and agile, while others were large and imposing. Her eyes widened as she spotted a group of colossal ant-like creatures.

Their armored exoskeletons gleamed in the sunlight.?These were no ordinary beasts; their size and strength hinted at a formidable force.

While looking at this, the witch thought to herself. ‘Wow. Why does the boy have so many strong bests? It’s like he’s creating an army.’

Amaryllis watched in awe as the massive ants traveled the forest with surprising speed, their powerful legs carrying them over and under bushes.

The sight impressed and unnerved her, realizing that the forest harbored common creatures and an entire ecosystem of formidable beasts.

As the witches approached the edge of Beasthaven, their eyes widened at the sight of a colossal wall that loomed in front of them.

The imposing structure stood as a formidable barrier, separating the wild expanse of Beasthaven from the organized part of the domain.

The sheer magnitude of the wall left the witches in awe, and Sera, with a hint of pride, boasted, “Our husband created this for his Monster Army. Just wait until you see Draconia.”

They stood before this boundary, safeguarded the monstrous inhabitants within, and kept the delicate balance between the untamed wilderness and the rest of the domain beyond.

Intrigued and filled with anticipation, Amaryllis and her cousins were excited to cross the wall to see the other side.

The Gorillith, Kong, approached the massive gate of the Beast Wall. Its towering structure stood amid the dense forest.

Amaryllis, Scarlett, and Valencia sat atop Kong, their eyes widening as they saw a dozen soldiers stationed at the gate.

A small fortress on the Beasthaven side of the wall had a few buildings and stuff to help the soldiers be more comfortable.

The three witches examined the soldiers, who were clad in sturdy armor, their weapons gleaming in the sunlight filtering through the forest.

As Kong stopped, the soldiers, disciplined and vigilant, took notice of the approaching beast and saw that Teuila and the others were on top.

In a swift motion, they dropped to one knee, a gesture of respect. The commanding officer among them raised a hand, signaling for the gate to be opened.

Amaryllis, Scarlett, and Valencia were utterly baffled by the soldier’s reactions, but this time it was Nefertiti who explained. ”Our husband rescued the Dragon-kin who decided to serve him out of respect for what he did.”

But Sera couldn’t help but jump in. ”He was thirteen while doing this, by the way. Archer has always been special.”

When the three witches heard this, they were impressed by staying quiet as the gate fully opened.

Teuila and Talila jumped off Kong after thanking him, followed by the others. Hemera and Valencia carried Nala and Llyniel.

The large group stepped through the gate to arrive in a small village built around the Beasthaven Gate.

Teuila led them through the village until they were stopped by a kind-looking older man who smiled as he spoke. ”My Queens. Let this old man sort out some carriage so you can return to the treehouse.”

When the ocean princess heard this, she agreed before turning to the others, who gave her a nod as they got back to chatting with the witches.

Amaryllis approached Teuila, whom Hecate had joined as the man prepared the carriage.

The witch asked in a curious voice. ”Why are the people so respectful? I get Archer saved them, but is this beyond that? Not even my Auntie or Grandmother garners this much respect from our citizens.’

Teuila’s eyes glimmered with pride and affection as she observed the respectful villagers passing by, each one bowing towards the girls.

A gentle smile played on her lips before she turned to Amaryllis, preparing to share a piece of her husband’s legacy.

“You see, he didn’t just save these people,” Teuila began, her voice expressing admiration. “He gave them a new life. Before him, the Dragon-kin lived a nomadic existence, constantly traveling without a home. The Church Of Light persecuted and punished them, but Archer changed that. He provided them with a sanctuary, a place to call their own.”

As she spoke, Teuila gestured to the bustling village around them, where Dragon-kin went about their daily lives, tending to their homes and enjoying time with their families.

Teuila continued, her expression reflecting the enormity of the change. “Archer’s actions caused a boom in the Dragon-kin population.” 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝑚

“Now, they are uncountable, a thriving community waiting patiently. They’re waiting for Archer to decide when the dragons need a new empire, a new beginning.”

The ocean princess shifted her gaze to the woman, who listened intently with a visible expression of concern.

She continued, her voice full of reassurance and emotion, “Archer doesn’t aspire to be a ruler. The burden of leadership will be ours, but he’ll protect it.”

As she fell silent, Amaryllis approached, her tone revealing worry, “Will he take part in the war against the witches? Being a dragon and their king, will he harbor resentment towards my kingdom?”

After the witch voiced her concerns about Archer getting involved in the war against the witches,Teuila couldn’t help but let out a light, musical giggle.

The sound danced through the air, catching the attention of those nearby. She said, her eyes sparkling with amusement. “Oh, my dear Amaryllis. Archer has no interest in the wars that plague our realms. He hates war and prefers adventuring.”

The ocean princess took a moment, her expression thoughtful as if carefully choosing her words. “He harbors no ill will towards any kingdom, including yours, unless you provoke him.”

When Teuila finished speaking, she leaned in, a mischievous glint in her eyes, and whispered to the relieved witch. “But I must share a secret with you. There’s someone who has captured his heart. Someone he wishes to marry.”

Amaryllis, intrigued and curious, leaned in to hear Teuila’s whispered revelation. “Who is it?” she asked in a hushed tone.

Teuila’s lips curled into a knowing smile. “Your cousin, Ophelia, the witch princess, but it seems she doesn’t feel the same way, which is a shame.”

When she said, the blue-haired girl rushed off in front when the old man returned with a carriage.

The witch just stood there with a smile on her face as she thought to herself. ‘Ophie. You stubborn girl. Why not just marry him? He is extremely handsome and knows how to treat a woman.”

She knows this thanks to the smiles on the girl’s faces as they went about getting on the carriage.

Valencia walked up behind her and spoke into her ear. ”Send a message to the queen and inform her of our situation so she can tell cousin Ophie.”

Amaryllis nodded as she entered the carriage after everyone was inside.
