A Journey That Changed The World.-Chapter 1033: What Are We Looking For Brother

Archer dropped Alexa at work and promised he would see her soon. Once she was gone, he walked toward a nearby alleyway to teleport to his mother's house, where he saw Ashoka, Nyx, and Maeve sitting in the garden, laughing with Ellie.

When the four women spotted him, they all smiled, but Nyx flew at him as fast as a rocket and crashed into his chest. She wrapped her arms around his body as he spoke, "Ladies, I'm going to clear some Swarm bases. Do you three want to come?"

The dragon woman climbed off him, nodding in agreement. Maeve stood up and smiled, "I will use my wings. I've been neglecting them since becoming a dragon."

Ashoka all agreed with a vicious glint in her amber eyes. He laughed before looking at Ellie, "Do you want to come, but you'll have to listen to everything I say?"

When the brunette heard him, she nodded with a big smile as Nyx and Maeve summoned their wings. At the same time, Ashoka cast a flying spell and levitated, which shocked Ellie, who went wide-eyed at the scene.

Following that, Archer quickly picked her up in a princess carry, which shocked Ellie as her brown eyes landed on him. "You won't drop me, will you?" she asked nervously.

Archer started laughing at her question, but Maeve spoke up as she flapped her wings and ascended into the sky, saying, "He won't drop you, Ellie. Archer has carried us for years and is a pro."

When the orange-haired woman spoke, he soared into the sky, followed by Nyx and Ashoka. He quickly summoned his white wings before taking off and flying north toward Canada, where the first few Swarm bases were located.

The group soared through the sky; Archer hid them using Mana Manipulation, allowing them to travel unnoticed. They quickly flew over Florida, gliding across multiple states until they reached a distant mountain range, where the first hole awaited.

As they looked for the tunnel entrance, Ellie glanced at him, her big brown eyes full of curiosity. Her voice wavered with nervousness as she asked, "Why are we flying so fast?"

Archer glanced at her and smiled before responding, "We're not going that fast. This is just my cruising speed. But one day," he added with a playful glint, "I'll show you how fast I can truly fly."

After that, he looked at the young woman and asked a question that caught her off guard, "Do you have a boyfriend, El?"

She stiffened before asking in a quiet voice, "Why are you asking something like that? You don't have your eyes on me, do you?"

Archer grinned at her question but didn't answer as he continued, "I'm going to take you out one day, big sister. Where have you always wanted to visit?"

"Italy!" she instantly answered.

Her sudden declaration made him laugh before replying with a chuckle, "We can go there soon; I want to see the world while spending time with you."

Ellie's cheeks flushed as the group descended toward the ground, the entrance to the Swarm's lair now in sight. A tremor ran through his body as Archer touched down-a warning. His senses sharpened instantly.

"The Swarm has been here recently,' he thought grimly. Turning to the three women, his tone firm, he said, "Can you two guard the entrance? The monsters have already left, but they'll strike from behind if we're not careful."

They nodded as Archer put down Ellie, who kept glancing all over the place before he continued, "You girls will stay here and watch my back. The creepy creatures always attack me from behind."

Maeve nodded in understanding as Ashoka stepped forward, her voice steady. "We'll cover your back, husband. I can sense some of them lingering nearby."

Archer's eyes narrowed as he scanned the area, his instincts flaring. The presence of monsters lurking in the underbrush became clear. Without hesitation, he raised his hand, casting Eldritch Blast at the hidden creatures.

The explosions made Ellie jump, startled by the attack. The others giggled while he smiled. Archer grabbed her by the waist and jumped into the dark hole, which caused the brunette to scream in fear.

When they descended into the darkness, thanks to his wings, he slowed down and used Blink as he spotted the ground below. The duo reappeared at the bottom, where a dark and oppressive atmosphere was over them.

Ellie trembled as she looked around, but Archer cast the Cosmic Shield around her and smiled, "Do not step out of this barrier, big sis. It will protect you and allow you to see what I've become."

"Why are you doing this?" she replied worriedly.

"Because you need to see what you'll be getting involved with," Archer answered while scanning the tunnels around them. "You and Michelle may unlock magic when you return to Thrylos with me."

When the brunette heard this, her eyes widened as she inquired, "You want Mom and me to come with you?"

Archer nodded gravely before replying in a severe tone that shocked Ellie, "Earth isn't safe anymore. Governments are drowning in debt, chaos rules, and evil spreads unchecked. Perverts roam freely, while the rich treat the poor like disposable pawns."

He took a step closer, his voice steady but full of conviction. "Draconia is different. It's something new, something better. Every person in my kingdom matters-from the elders who pass down wisdom, teaching the young the rights and wrongs of the world, to those who contribute in their own ways. Everyone has a place Ellie."

The brunette looked stunned, then shook her head in disbelief. "It sounds like paradise," she muttered, "but it's hard to imagine when you've spent your whole life here."

Archer nodded, understanding her skepticism. A Blightborn creature lunged from the shadows as he was about to respond. In a flash, Archer's hand shot out, catching the monster by its neck and halting its attack.

Ellie screamed, but he ignored that before speaking with a grin, "These things have been after me since I was thirteen, and now they are colluding with the Alliance to take my kingdom down, but they are failing."

"What's the Alliance?" she asked with a curious expression once she calmed down.

"Dozens of empires and kingdoms joined together to try to wipe me out, but thanks to my Death Mist, which blocked all their plans," he explained. "Once the girls and I return, we will go to war with them."

Following that, Archer snapped the Blightborn's neck, causing its body to go limp before he threw the corpse at another creature. He chuckled when the charging monster was hit and ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

taken out.

'Damn I should use bodies as missiles,' Archer thought before doing the same thing.

'Why is he treating this like a game?' Ellie wondered, her thoughts racing as she stood behind the shimmering violet barrier-the same hue as her brother's eyes.

Through the protective shield, she watched Archer as he tore through the slender man-like

creatures that had emerged from the tunnel. His calm demeanor as he butchered the

monstrous being only added to her unease.

Ellie was concerned, thinking, 'Brother isn't the same anymore. He's more wild now.'

After that, Archer turned to her with a smile and said, "Follow me, sis, and stay close."

She nodded before following him, looking at his board back, which sent her heart beating fast. 'Don't tell me I'm attracted to him?'

Ellie found herself studying Archer more closely. His short white hair stood out-it was a rare feature for someone so young, usually a sign of age, yet he carried it effortlessly, looking

every bit his age.

Taller than most men she knew, Archer was built strong but not overly muscular, giving him a powerful presence without seeming excessive. Now that they were alone, his pointy ears appeared, along with a swaying tail that moved gently from side to side.

Ellie couldn't help but find him handsome, a warmth rising within her. She quickly shook her head. 'He was my brother. How can I feel this way? What would our siblings think?' Despite her inner conflict, curiosity ate at her. As they continued down the tunnel in silence, her thoughts raced. Unable to hold back, Ellie glanced at him and asked hesitantly, "Do you

find me attractive, brother?"

When Archer heard that, he grinned before turning around and whispering into her ear, "I would make you mine, but it's still too early for that."

After hearing her question, Archer watched as Ellie's cheeks flushed, her wide brown eyes full of surprise. He chuckled softly, amused by her reaction, then turned and continued down the

tunnel.

Without waiting for more attacks, he cast Crown of Stars, and glowing orbs of light began to orbit around him, casting an ethereal glow as they circled his figure. The spell instantly activated by shooting any Blightborns that got close to them.

A violet glow lit up the tunnel, causing more creatures to attack, but Archer summoned his

Shadow Creatures, who decimated the enemy. Ellie was shocked and questioned as they continued walking, "What are we looking for, brother? And how long will it take?" [Drop some powerstones, comments, and gifts to help the novel grow; I appreciate all the support you can give]
