A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 485 Take Care

Chapter 485 Take Care

When Archer and Ella stepped outside, the snow hit their faces, but he held her closer and opened a portal to the domain.

They walked through the portal while brushing off the snow. When the couple appeared in the living room, only Halime was reading while curled up on the sofa reading a book.

A roaring fire blazed in the fireplace, heating the room, which the two felt instantly.

That's when the snake girl lifted her head, smiled upon spotting the two, and spoke to the half-elf who approached the fire to warm her hands. ''How was the date, El?''

Ella responded as she let out a happy sigh when the fire warmed her up. "It was delightful, but the snow began, preventing us from taking another stroll."

Halime nodded with a smile as she got up and approached the half-elf, then ushered her to the sofas, revealing the book she was engrossed in.

Archer looked at the two girls who started chatting about it, which caused him to smile and watch them for a little while.

But after doing this for a while, he decided to see Nala for their date and knew she was with Teuila and Talila outside training.

He looked at the two girls chatting while the fire crackled and walked over to him. He approached the two girls, looking at a book, and caught their attention.

They glanced up as he leaned down, kissing each girl on the forehead, which surprised the two, but they were happy.

Especially Halime, who loved the attention Archer gave her as she hadn't been touched since she was five until meeting him.

"Take care," he whispered to them, his voice soothingly.

After bidding farewell to the two girls while they smiled, he stepped onto the balcony and saw it covered in snow.

He sighed, closed his eyes, and surveyed the domain for the three warrior girls. He soon located them outside while training, but their pace slowed due to the snow.

At that moment, he imagined the domain being shielded from the outside weather, causing the snowfall to cease.

Once Archer did that, he teleported outside and suddenly felt the cold air embrace him as he appeared not far from the training field.

However, he noticed the three girls, each catching their breath. Teuila sported her standard training gear, which perfectly hugged her toned body, providing her unrestricted movement.

Despite the practicality, Archer couldn't help but notice her cleavage spilling out. He shook off the distraction and shifted his gaze to Talila.

The mixed elf wore an outfit similar to Teuila's, but it offered more coverage with additional layers underneath.

Despite the attempt at modesty, Archer could not avert his eyes from her chest, where the armor struggled to contain her massive mountains.

That's when he decided to visit the naught elf later, but he refocused his attention on the lion girl who was hopping up and down.

She shocked him with a loose skirt and a vest top. Archer noticed that she was very muscular with defined muscles.

Nala was stretching her body causing her wild blonde hair to go everywhere. She looked into the sky with her blue eyes and asked in a curious voice. ''Why is the snow getting stuck in the air?''

Archer chuckled and wanted to eavesdrop on the three to see if they gossiped about him, so he cast Blink and appeared far from them.

Teuila gave her an answer as she put her sword away. ''It's Archer's domain, and he controls everything.''

The lion girl looked at Teuila and spoke with amazement in her voice. ''How, though? It's not a spell as it's always active.''

She pondered until Talila chimed in, "Mana. He's a white dragon, and they're said to embody living mana. So, it's not surprising that he has this kind of thing. Archer is a mystery bag."

Upon hearing the mixed elf's remark, he burst into laughter, startling all three girls, who jumped like frightened cats.

His laughter only intensified at their reaction. The trio turned to him with narrowed eyes, and Teuila spoke with a mischievous grin, "You made us jump. Now fight us?"

Archer's laughter stopped, and a mischievous grin appeared as he replied to the ocean princess's challenge. "Sure thing."

The three girls grew eager and began gearing up, but Nala asked, "Can we only use melee combat?''

He nodded because he wanted to use hand-to-hand combat when fighting against them, but he quickly activated the limiter in his bracelet so they could fight fairly.

That's when the air crackled with anticipation as the four started to fight in a whirlwind of punches and kicks.

Archer's movements were a blur, his fists a deadly dance of precision and power. Teuila, agile and swift, dodged his strikes with acrobatic finesse.

Talila countered with strategic punches, exploiting any opening she could find. Nala, with her unique lion-inspired techniques, was very unpredictable.

The fight escalated, each one showcasing their martial prowess. Archer's fists clashed with the girls' skilled defenses.

Despite Archer's abilities, the trio's coordinated efforts began to gain the upper hand. Teuila and Talila's teamwork disrupted his movements.

While Nala's swift strikes kept him on the defensive, in a dramatic turn, the three girls executed a synchronized assault that left Archer vulnerable.

They exploited the opening, overwhelming him with a barrage of strikes. As Archer found himself on the ground, Nala, with a victorious grin, landed on top of him.

Her tail swayed in excitement, a tangible symbol of her well-earned victory, while her deep blue eyes locked onto his, a smile playing on her face.

She leaned forward and stole his lips, which took him by surprise, but he returned the kiss while holding her hips.

The kiss conveyed unspoken emotions, a fusion of longing and understanding. The cold air contrasted with the warmth shared between their lips, creating a lingering sensation leaving an indelible mark on both hearts.

A shared breath escaped into the winter night as they finally pulled away. That's when Archer heard laughing.

He turned to the other two girls, who were looking at them while laughing. That's when Talila commented. ''She's been dying to do that since they first met. I bet she's a happy lion.''

Teuila nodded in agreement as the two giggled, causing Archer to stand up with Nala, who was smiling like an idiot.

The snow had settled on the training ground, a serene white blanket covering the landscape as they made their way to the training hall.

When they entered the hall, all four gathered near the fireplace. The warm crackling of the fire provided a stark contrast to the cold beauty outside.

While feeling the exhilaration from their fight, Archer couldn't help but grin as he addressed the three warriors. "That was quite a fight. You girls are really good.''

Nala, her blue eyes sparkling with enthusiasm, nodded. "It was amazing! I didn't expect you to be so nimble, especially with those kicks. We really got you this time, huh?"

He spoke with a hint of pride in his voice. "You did. I have to admit, you caught me off guard."

Teuila, with a confident smirk, chimed in, "Well, get used to it. We're not holding back. And it's not just about sparring for fun. It's training, Archer."

Archer raised an eyebrow, curious about the subtle change in Teuila's tone. "Training? I thought that's what we were doing."

Talila, her expression more serious, explained, "It was, but it's also the beginning of a new phase. We've been discussing this, and we believe you need more intensive training because you're a dragon.''

Archer looked at them with an excited look on his face. "More intensive training? What do you have in mind?"

Teuila leaned forward, her eyes locking onto Archer's. "We're going to push you harder, make you face challenges you haven't encountered before. You're very strong, but there's always room for improvement. Consider this the beginning of a journey to turn you into a fighting dragon.''

He grinned, ready for the challenge. "Sure, let's do it. I'm up for anything."

Teuila's smile grew, and she patted Archer's shoulder. "Great! That's the spirit. We'll help you get even better. Today was just the beginning."

After the ocean princess spoke, Talila said, "Well, you better take Nala on her date; she hasn't shut up about it."

Archer smiled upon hearing this and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, girls. I'll be taking all of you out."

The two girls smiled before returning to their training. Talila resumed practicing with her bow while Teuila focused on honing her magic skills.

After watching them for a bit, Archer approached the lion girl in a daze and stroked her ear, causing her to shiver.

Nala came to and looked at him with a smile as she spoke. ''Are we going on our date?''

Archer nodded as he replied. ''Yes. It's evening so we can eat somewhere. I'm hungry again.''

She agreed while grabbing his arm, but Archer stopped her with a grin as he pulled out something.
