nAs he stood in his domain, he gazed up at the dazzling stars glowing brightly above.

nRadiant and mesmerizing, they outshone any he had seen on Earth, and he was in awe.

nThrylos had gifted him with a view of celestial beauty that even his wildest dreams could not have conjured.

nStaring up he saw shooting comets and colorful stars.

nEven though he hates the nightmares he is still thankful to be here.

nArcher left the Domain, as he stepped out he quickly activates his draconic form.

n”Draconis.”

nAll his draconic features appeared even his sharpened teeth.

nLeaping in the air he took off to hunt, after flying for a while he arrived at the forest.

nAs he soared over the forest, he maintained a watchful eye on the terrain below, much like a hawk scanning for prey.

nHis flight was slow and deliberate, taking in every detail of the landscape as he glided effortlessly through the sky.

nNot noticing anything at first, until his nose picked up the scent of blood, as he flew closer he started to hear the sound of fighting.

nArcher arrived swiftly, picking up speed as he approached his destination.

nLooking around he saw two dinosaurs fighting at the base of a big mountain.

nStopping not far from them, as he stopped Archer cast six Element Bolts made from Lightning.

nThe yellow bolts flew through the air while crackling as they struck the dinosaurs.

nAll he heard was a whistling noise as the spell shot toward the targets, the Lightning bolt punctured the beast’s bodies dropping them to the ground.

nAltogether he’s collected 21 hearts from the soldiers yesterday, and two from the beasts just now.

nHe decided to eat now, once he was done he checked his status.

nExp: 4150

/9000

nLevel: 78>79

nSP: 45>68

nArcher was happy, he got 3750 experience from the kills and 2300 from the hearts he ate.

nHe took off again, flying over the treetops.

nHis nose caught a smell he hasn’t smelt before.

nArcher stopped as he started hovering.

nThe smell was close but he couldn’t pinpoint it, he flew a bit further and he managed to locate what was making such a smell.

nDescending to the ground as he spotted the strange-looking beast, it was a magnificent creature with a hulking, furry body and a bird-like head.

n”Oh, it’s an owlbear, the old Archer read about them.”

nIts fierce eyes are as big as saucers, and its sharp, curved beak can tear through flesh with ease.

nThick feathers cover its strong shoulders and arms, and its razor-sharp talons can kill its prey in a matter of seconds.

nDespite its bulky form, an owlbear is incredibly nimble, able to move quickly and silently through the densest forests.

nWith its distinctive hooting call, this hybrid predator is both imposing and fascinating.

nHe was shocked when he saw it, Archer has never seen anything like it before.

nSpinning on its heels to face him.

nIt let out a deafening roar, its eyes fixed on the boy, the beast quickly charged forward catching him off guard.

nThe bear quickly swiped at him but he dodged while returning the attack with a slash of his own.

nHe tore through the beast’s skin like a hot knife cutting through butter.

nThe beast roared in pain as he Thunder Stepped high above while starting to free fall.

nHe wasn’t using his wings but tucked them in as he summoned his cosmic sword which changed color.

nIt’s fully black but has violet veins running throughout the blade, aiming it at the beast as he fell.

nBut something happened that he didn’t expect, the beast swiped at him as he got close.

nHe managed to shield himself with his wings before he got hit.

nThe swipe sent him reeling back, but Archer used his wings to protect him as he crashed to the forest floor.

nIt didn’t hurt his wings at all, there wasn’t even a scratch on the scales, Archer lay there for a second trying to catch his breath.

nThe morning sun was starting to rise, getting to his feet he approached the unsuspecting beast.

nArcher Thunder stepped and appeared next to the owlbears head but before he could cast his spell, the bear tried to swipe at him but his right wing defended him against the attack. .

nClaw and scale clashed, sparks flew as Archer deflected the claw to the side as he rushed forward while using his claw to puncture the beast’s chest.

nHis claws tore through the owlbears skin, bone, and organs, he got covered in blood as the bear was much taller than him.

nIt weakly swung its other claw at him but Archer used his wing to block the attack.

nHe pierced the beast’s chest with his claw and tore out its still-beating heart.

nArcher stared at the still warm blood running down his arm as he held the heart, his bloodlust kicked in and wanted him to hunt more.

nHe stored the heart and took off, he wanted to collect his food and keep moving.

nAfter a 10-minute flight, he landed outside the farmstead and cast Cleanse on himself, he looked at the sun and it was still morning.

nArcher started walking around as he marveled at the fantastical sights before him.

nThe grass beneath his feet sparkled with tiny, colorful gemstones that seemed to glow in the sun.

nBeasts were grazing in the fields unlike any he had ever seen before, with rainbow-colored fur and sparkling, jewel-like eyes.

nAs he wandered deeper into the farmstead, Archer noticed the fruits growing on the trees were larger than his head, and their skins were covered in intricate patterns that seemed to shift and move.

nThe vegetables in the garden were similarly fantastical, with bright, swirling colors that defied logic.

nHe took a deep breath as he smelled the sweet, spicy fragrance of the plants, which seemed to flavor the very air around him.

nThe morning sun was a bright, a beautiful golden orb in the sky, casting warm rays of light and shimmering patterns of prismatic colors across the farmstead.

nArcher loved the place, it seemed so peaceful until he was interrupted by Riyad.

n”Why are you here? you just turn up and everyone is so friendly to you!”

nStaring at the rambling boy, he turned on his heels and walked away while saying.

n”Fuck off with your petty bull**.”

nHe made his way to the kitchen to see if his food was done.

nArcher stepped into the house and made his way to the kitchen where he saw Alima still cooking the food.

nThe woman turned to him with a smile, she knew something was plaguing the boy but didn’t want to pry so she greeted him.

n”Peace be upon you, Archer.”

nHe was stunned, a religion on earth uses that greeting.

nShaking his head as he greeted her back.

n“Good morning, Alima,”

nArcher greeted as he entered the kitchen.

nAlima smiled back at him.

n“Your food is nearly done.”

nAs Archer watched her cook, she noticed that he seemed distracted.

n“Are you okay, Archer?”

nHe shook his head.

n“Yeah, sorry. Thank you for cooking for me.” .𝒎

nAlima paused for a moment before offering some advice.

n“You know, life is a precious gift. We only get one shot at it, so it’s important to make the most of every moment.”

nArcher looked puzzled.

n“What do you mean, make the most of every moment?”

nAlima smiled.

n“I mean, don’t waste your time on things that don’t matter. Do the things that make you happy, spend time with the people you love, and chase your dreams. Don’t let fear or doubt hold you back.”

n“But what if I don’t know what my dreams are?”

n“It’s alright, Archer. It’s normal to take time to figure out what you want in life,”

nAlima reassured him.

n“Just keep exploring, trying new things, and learning about yourself. Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination. So enjoy the ride and live life to the fullest.”

nHe expressed his gratitude to Alima as she resumed cooking his meal.

n“Thank you, Alima,”

nArcher took a seat and patiently waited for his food to be ready.

nNot long after sitting down, she was done with the food.

nAlima placed a massive platter full of food, and he took out two gold coins and placed them on the table.

nWhen Alima saw the coins, her eyes widened in surprise before protesting.

n“That’s too much for some simple cooking.”

nArcher smiled at her as he stood up after storing the food away.

n“It’s enough, thank you for cooking, Alima. Do you happen to know where Raymond is?”

nShe looked at him with surprise written all over her face as she nodded.

n”You’re welcome, and he is behind the house tending to the garden.”

nAs Archer made his way to the garden, he was immediately struck by the vibrant colors and unusual shapes of the plants and flowers around him.

nThe air was thick with the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and the sound of a nearby waterfall filled his ears.

nHe couldn’t help but feel a sense of peace and tranquility wash over him as he took in the beauty of his surroundings.

nArcher walked deeper into the garden, he marveled at the towering trees with leaves that glimmered like jewels in the sunlight.

nThe bushes with flowers that seemed to dance in the breeze were a sight to behold.

nHe couldn’t help but feel a sense of wonder at the beauty of nature.

nApproaching a small stream that ran through the garden, he could see fish darting through the crystal-clear water.

nThe sound of the water flowing over the rocks was soothing, and he found himself drawn to the edge of the stream.

nHe continued to explore the garden, he noticed that the plants and flowers seemed to be arranged in intricate patterns, almost as if they had been deliberately placed there by someone with a keen eye for design.

nIt was clear that a lot of thought and care had gone into creating this beautiful oasis.
