A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 916: They Lied To My Face

Archer smiled when he saw Meredith's reaction as she spoke: "Then you'll just have to be a good king and not ravage your maid until she's ready."

"I know, and I won't touch you even if you're teasing me," Archer said as the maid stepped into the water and looked away to show some respect.

Meredith beamed but grabbed his head and moved it to face her, "I may not be ready to have sex, but that doesn't mean you cannot look at me," she said in a voice full of hope.

She looked down and mumbled in a quiet voice, "I like it when you look at me like you want to eat me."

Archer chuckled softly before leaning in, his lips meeting Meredith's in a kiss that initially tensed her body. Soon, she relaxed into it, returning the kiss with one of her own before they parted.

He enjoyed seeing her smile but ceased teasing before saying, "Well, if you're here to help, I'll let you clean me and keep my hands to myself."

Meredith nodded, picking up soap and a sponge. She cleaned his chest first but couldn't prevent the blush that rose to her cheeks. Archer couldn't resist remarking, "You look beautiful when you're embarrassed, Mere."

His compliments only made her even more embarrassed, and the situation worsened when Ella, Nefertiti, Lucrezia, and Fianna walked into the bathroom. They all stopped walking when they spotted Meredith cleaning Archer.

"Oh, look at what we have here," Lucrezia said with a knowing smile. "Already enjoying your personal maid husband? Hiring them was a good idea; at least we can rest now."'

Archer shook his head, "I've only kissed her and haven't touched Mere," he informed the group as they joined him in the bath.

The girls greeted the blonde maid with smiles, causing Meredith to calm down as Ella spoke next, "We all agreed you're allowed to have fun with the maids we choose. It's why we hired them; now you can be satisfied once we're too tired to continue."

He looked at the half-elf with narrowed eyes before replying in an annoyed tone, "I understand that, but do you think I'm some sort of sex fiend that cannot control my lust?"

When the group heard, they grew quiet as Archer continued as he got more annoyed, "I do not 'need' sex to live, and you girls know this; yes, when we have it, you grow tired quickly, but that doesn't mean I will force myself on the maids."

Archer looked at them all, "I thought you lot knew me better. Just look at Meredith. She would sleep with me because it's her duty, not because she wants to," he said before concluding. "I'm going to get some fresh air; your assumptions have got on my nerves."

He stepped out of the water, and Ella asked, in a concerned voice, "Are you angry with me, Arch?"

"No, my love, but the fact you hired two lovely women as mere sex objects annoyed me, El. You know how I feel; I won't sleep with anyone without a connection, especially with you girls. When we make love, it's so much better than just hooking up with someone without love or care. It's not for me," Archer replied firmly.

Fianna then spoke with a tender voice, "Could that be why we didn't sleep together right after you kidnapped me?"

Archer nodded in agreement, "Yes, Fi. My mother always taught me that hooking up with random women isn't a good way to live. The day I met Alexia was when she told me that a couple works together to improve each other's lives, and even with a harem of twenty beautiful women, I care for and love each of you in my own way."

Following that, Archer got ready and spoke, "Ella Wyldheart, I love you so much and always will; just talk to me next time if the sex is overwhelming for everyone."

Before he could leave, Fianna asked, "When did Larka teach you those things? What you said doesn't sound like that woman."

Archer sighed as he revealed, "Fi, I was reincarnated on Thrylos seventeen years ago, but when I woke up, I had lost my memories until I hit my head and unlocked them. Before that, I believed Tiamat put into my body only to learn it was my own from the beginning."

"Reincarnated?" Lucrezia said with a confused expression.

He nodded as he started speaking, "Yes. I lived on a world called Earth with a loving family and even a girlfriend, but unfortunately, I was murdered the night we made it official."' When the group of girls heard this, all but Ella and Nefertiti's eyes widened in shock. But Meredith questioned in disbelief, "Does that mean you're from another world?"

"Yes, Mere. When Noah killed me, I thought Tiamat brought my soul here, but she just guided it through its journey until I was born here and met those two," he said the last part with

venom.

"Those two?" the mosasaur woman commented.

"His parents, from a young age, abused him until he became a shell and hid away, but the day he turned thirteen, everything changed," Ella answered for him. "Now our husband is a king revered as a god among the people. You see them lining outside the palace to see him."'

Archer smiled at Fianna's passionate declaration, but his smile faded when her red dragon eyes began to glow. She stood up abruptly and said, "We're going to see Leonard and my ex- husband. They lied to my face, and I need to get my other children."

The other women chuckled at Fianna's fiery reaction. After drying herself off and slipping into a dress, she grabbed Archer's hand and pulled him out of the room. Once they were outside, Fianna turned to him and surprised him with a sudden kiss.

"Will you allow Lucius to stay in Draconia? I know you two had issues, but I was hoping you could let it go?" Fianna asked after they separated.

Archer nodded, "I have no problem with the boy; that's a troll under the bridge," he said with a charming smile.

Fianna laughed as she revealed, "All my boys are older than you, my lovely, but I still love

you."

Following their departure from the palace, as they stepped outside, Fianna looked at Archer and said, "Can you handle riding me now that I'm a dragon?"

He nodded in response, but suddenly, a voice called out from behind them, "Can I come with you, Arch? I feel like you've forgotten about me."

Archer turned around to find Nyx, the chaos dragon, smiling at him, though he could sense a hint of sadness behind her yellow and red eyes. Feeling guilty as he knew she had been alone for at least two decades ago, he decided to make amends to her.

Without hesitation, Archer drew closer, his hands gently finding Nyx's waist, pulling her in before tenderly kissing her. The dragon woman, taken aback, pushed him away in shock, demanding, "What are you doing? You can't just randomly kiss people!"

Archer's charming smile remained unwavering as he replied, "You seemed sad, but now I see surprise and happiness in your eyes." He continued, "We're heading for Pluoria to see my

father."

"Can I eat him?" Nyx suddenly asked, excitement gleaming in her eyes.

Archer burst into laughter just as Fianna transformed into her dragon form. Admiring her shimmering scales, he ran his hand over them and said lovingly, "You're stunning Fi." Following that, he suggested, "Why do we travel in our dragon forms? Would make for an entrance to the empire."

The blonde nodded, and Nyx smiled as she transformed into her black dragon form and let out an earth-shaking roar. When Archer saw this, he grinned, "This power is in my hands; wait until I

unleash it upon Verdantia.'

After thinking, he cast Blink to reappear outside the palace before transforming, which caused chaos among the knights because of his size. When the two women saw this, they were amazed and started flying while circling him, which spurred him to flap his wings.

This caused a storm to erupt, causing Archer to grow annoyed as he soared into the sky. While flying, he thought about the new spell he could create, knew what one to create, and started

thinking.

As he focused on his spell creation, Nyx unexpectedly started nipping at his neck, a gesture Fianna quickly imitated. The sensation sent a thrill through Archer, leaving him bewildered

and breathless.

"What was that? Why did it feel so good?" he exclaimed, caught off guard by the unexpected

pleasure.

"I learned from a book in Frostholm's library that dragon couples do this to show their love," Nyx explained excitedly.

Afterward, the trio flew away from Draconia and soared over the sea only to spot Pluoria after twenty minutes of traveling. Archer spotted dozens of Novgorod and Nightshade ships sailing

all over the place.

He ignored them when making landfall, and Fianna took over before flying to the Summerfield Duchy. As she spoke, "We will visit my family then go to Mistwood to see

Leonard."

Archer and Nyx agreed while following the older woman as they flew over the Crownlands. His wings caused a gust of powerful winds to sweep over the landscape, catching people's

attention.

Fianna's voice rang in his mind, 'Sorry for dragging you out of the palace, and I thought it would be a good idea to let the girls think about what they had done.'
