Chapter 30 Thank You

nWhat Archer saw was an ashen-colored hand grabbing onto his left leg, it had yellow-looking claws.

nHis eyes followed the arm up and saw a humanoid-looking creature with a bald head and sharp yellow teeth, it looked like the thing ate its own lips.

nIt was skin and bones with really long arms and boney legs.

nThe stare the thing was giving him sent shivers up his spine, the creature licked its lips and dragged Archer out of the tree.

nAs he got dragged he could hear shouts and explosions at the camp.

nThe beast jumped off the tree with a shocked-looking Archer in its claws and sprinted deep into the woods.

nArcher was getting flung around like a rag doll, his horns hitting passing tree’s leaving deep scratch marks.

nHe came out of his shock and summoned his sword and started to hack at the beast, but its skin started to slice but the beast sped up.

nIt ran for a while before tossing him into a clearing and standing still with more of the beasts.

nArcher’s aura detection started going crazy as more and more of these creepy-looking beasts stepped out.

nHe stood there dumbfounded as he knew what they were, and couldn’t believe they are real.

n”Wendigos.”

nThe creatures hissed and cackled as more of the things came back with the corpses of the caravan guards and some adventurers.

nThrowing them into another corner and then all the things turned to stare at Archer.

nHe looked around the clearing and noticed all kinds of different bones, humanoids, beasts, and even bigger beasts, he thought these creatures love to eat.

nArcher heard a woman screaming and even more creatures appeared with Tiefel who Sarah introduced to him and another man.

nThey threw the two of them closer to Archer.

nAs Tiefel landed on the floor she noticed the boy who joined them earlier today standing there with a bored look on his face.

nArcher was staring at her as he sighed, he had no choice but to test out his new spells.

nHe waited for the wendigos to charge at them.

nA few minutes later a howl was heard and they all rushed in. He stood in front of the two and cast Thunder Wave.

nA thunderous purple force swept out of Archer striking all the beasts, sending them flying but not killing them.

nAs the horde once again closed in on the group, Archer lifted his hand high into the air, calling upon the powers of the storm.

n‘Lightning Call.’

nDark clouds gathered, crackling with the power of thunder and lightning, and the wind whipped around them with a furious intensity.

nWith a sudden thrust of his hand, a bolt of lightning erupted from the clouds, piercing the monsters with a deafening boom.

nOne by one, the creatures fell as the lightning pierced through their bodies, smoldering them into nothingness.

nTiefel was completely shocked as she witnessed this attack, she couldn’t utter a single word.

nHe continued to call down the power of the storm, driving bolts of lightning into the remaining wendigos as the sky rumbled in response to his command.

nWith each strike, the enemies writhed in agony, the smell of burnt flesh filling the air.

nThe battlefield shimmered in a chorus of purple and white, as the remaining beasts fled in terror, unable to withstand the power of Archer’s draconic magic.

nThe air settled, and he stood proud, his eyes alive with the power of the storm.

nArcher lowered his hand with a frown as he looked around.

n‘The damn hearts, **!’

nHe wanted the hearts but accepted the loss as he got a lot of experience from the kills, he quickly checked it.

n‘Status.’ 𝘳.𝑐𝘰

nExperience: 850

/3000

nLevel Up: 44>47

nSP: 19>25

nArcher was happy when he saw that he leveled up three times, he decided to save up the points until he had more.

nTurning around to face the shocked Tiefel he smiled at her.

n”What’s wrong?”

nShe stared at this strange boy, with a pair of horns and beautiful violet eyes.

nWho just showed her a spell that she has never seen or heard of and is acting like nothing happened.

n”What was that spell?”

nHe tilted his head with a confused look.

n”I got it from a spell book, it’s called call lightning.”

nShe didn’t know what to say, the boy called upon a storm and wiped out the wendigos.

nArcher looked around but couldn’t find anything, so he decided to head back to the caravan, but before he did he walked over to the other man and kicked him.

n”Wake up.”

nThe man groaned, so Archer kicked him even more.

n”Why are you kicking me!”

n”Wake up, we need to get back to the caravan, get up!”

nTiefel giggled when she saw the boy kicking Cirris from the wind walker’s adventurer group.

nThe man got up and started scratching his head.

nLooking around the man’s eyes opened in shock as he saw all the charred bodies, he looked at Tiefel but she shook her head and pointed at Archer.

n”The boy saved us.”

nThe man looked at him like he was a monster.

nHe ignored him and started to walk in the direction of the caravan.

nThe two adventurers quickly followed after him.

nIt was pitch black so the other two were blind until Tiefel used a light spell that allowed them to see where they were walking.

nBut Archer was fine because of his eyes. All they could see were trees and bushes, the beasts must have run far with the three.

nAfter a couple of hours of walking, they arrived back at the temporary camp as it was being tidied up, there were bodies of wendigos piled up high.

nA few bodies of the caravan guards were placed off to one side.

nBut there was a new group here. 10 men who looked like adventures, the leader was talking to Sarah as the three of them approached the camp.

nThe elf woman’s husband Barador saw her and started to run towards her.

n”Tiefel!”

nHe arrived in front of her and hugged her with happiness on his face. He wondered how she escaped those vile creatures.

n”How did you get away from those things darling?”

nShe smiled as she pointed at the white-haired boy.

n”He helped me.”

nThe man turned his head to stare at Archer before walking over to him and holding his hand out to shake Archer’s hand.

n”Thank you for saving my wife Archer, I’ll always be in your debt.”

nArcher looked at the man’s extended hand, he didn’t want to shake it but did in the end.

n”That’s okay.”

nHe let go of the man’s hand and walked off to go find somewhere to sleep again, finding another tree he quickly jumped up the tree.

nAfter he was higher up he settled back down and went to sleep.

nWaking up in an unknown bed. Archer looked around panicked, wondering where he was as the scene in front of him seemed familiar.

nThat’s when he noticed a young woman in her late teens lying next to him. He recognized the smooth white skin, the beautiful blonde hair cut to her shoulders.

nIt was Ella. He went to hug her but was stopped by an invisible barrier.

nAfter that, she sat up and stared directly at him. He noticed blood dripping down her lips. Suddenly, the scene changed.

nRecognizing the place he was in, it was the castle where he woke up that day.

nBut there was one difference it was burning, that’s when he saw Ella’s lifeless body laying in front of it.

nArcher sprinted forward but the castle then crumbled as he woke up panicking.

nChecking the necklace he saw nothing was wrong, so he calmed down, he looked around and noticed morning was close.

nHe was covered in sweat so he cast cleanse on his body as he got up and jumped off the branch.

nWhen he hit the floor he started to look around the camp and saw the pile of Wendigo corpses sitting to one side.

nApproaching the pile as he pulled out his knife and started looting the hearts.

nHe got 20 hearts in total, throwing all but one in his item box and starting to eat, he was still rattled by the dream so didn’t reply when some guards started questioning him.

nAfter an hour he ate all 20 and decided he wanted to upgrade his stats. ‘Status.’

nExperience: 300

/3000

nLevel Up: 47>48

nSP: 25>47

nHe got 2000 experience from the hearts and 22 status points, so he put 11 points on HP and mana, and 5 on every other stat.

nHP: 1200>1310

nMana: 4100>4430

nStrength: 590>640

nConstitution: 620>670

nStamina: 620>670

nCharisma: 700>750

nIntelligence: 570>620

nArcher felt his body become stronger as he upgraded his stats, that’s when he noticed Sarah rushing toward him.

nHe cast cleanse to get rid of the blood that was all over him before she got to him.

n”Archer are you okay!”

nSarah spoke with a relieved tone in her voice as she checked the boy all over to see if he was okay, she saw him being dragged away when they were ambushed.
