Chapter 551 Silvershade Kingdom

As he stepped out, the salty scent of the sea enveloped him, and he gazed upon a scene that both captivated him.

In front of him lay a rough sea, its waves crashing violently against the cliffs below. The foamy spray rose, a relentless battle between the sea and the land.

He could feel the raw power of the ocean, an untamed force that echoed the chaos within and could sweep him into its depths.

His eyes fixed on the churning waters below, and a sudden movement caught his attention.

Archer saw a sleek, dark shape emerge from the depths, soaring into the air with breathtaking speed.

It was a large shark, its powerful body cutting through the waves. In an instant, the shark seized a sea creature that resembled a struggling seal.

'Impressive. It possessed considerable strength, comparable to that of a sizable boat.' Archer mused silently.

He watched the encounter between predator and prey as the well-adapted shark leaped from the water, claiming its meal.

The sea creature fought hard, but nature's plan unfolded predictably. A primal dance between hunter and prey played out amid the rough sea.

It served as a reminder that the circle of life persisted in the vast and turbulent unknown. As he watched the sea, Archer heard footsteps approaching the door.

He turned to see the woman who helped in the Swarms tunnel. She stopped walking when she spotted him.

She shook her head with a smile and approached him. When she got closer, the woman introduced herself. ''I'm Tiamara. Queen of the Silvershade Kingdom.''

Archer looked at her and saw the queenly aura she carried. She stood tall, her regal stature highlighted by beautiful silver hair flowing down her back.

Her silver eyes gleamed as she looked at him. Archer thought she looked to be in her early thirties, but she's a dragon, so that he couldn't tell.

When he stopped examining her, she spoke in a surprised voice. ''Oh, I didn't think you'd be up already. Our healers only stopped working an hour ago.''

Archer got a confused look on his face before speaking. ''How long was I sleeping?''

The woman got a thinking look on her face as she answered. ''About a week. The poison infected most of your body and was hard to remove, but our healers are some of the best, so they managed to do it.''

When Archer heard the woman, he replied with a smile. ''Well, thanks for healing me. What do you want it to return?''

She started laughing before replying with a chuckle. ''Nothing, little dragon. We're here to help you. My husband and I will train you as Tiamat commanded. You will learn how to become a fierce dragon who will be at the forefront of the upcoming world war.''

Archer was listening and grew curious when he heard the woman's words and remembered Tiamat's warning.

He realized the Swarm would emerge into the world and try to destroy the kingdoms and empires of the surface.

The memories he took from the Terravian informed him of the timeframe, seven years now, thanks to all the trouble he caused them.

While he was thinking, Tiamara spoke in a concerned voice. ''The war will come in five years, and we must be prepared.''

As she spoke, Archer interrupted her. ''It's seven years. I caused too much trouble for them when I was in their underground lair.''

Tiamara started laughing when she heard him, which confused Archer, but she explained once she calmed down. ''Tiamat was right. You're a menace to anyone who crosses you.''

He chuckled and agreed with the woman, but she quickly spoke again. ''Follow me. We will start your training right away.''

Archer nodded before he followed her as they entered the door. He ended up in a decorated palace hallway, but nothing like he expected of a royal family.

As they were walking, he looked all over the place, which caught Tiamara's attention. It caused her to ask. ''What's on your mind?''

He stopped walking and decided to ask in a curious voice. ''How come it's not decorated like the other palaces? I've been inside many, and they're so overdone with that stuff. It's a waste of treasure.''

When Tiamara heard him, she giggled and internally thought. 'He's definitely not like the previous white dragons. They loved to decorate their palaces but this one seems to hate it. Interesting.'

Archer looked at the woman and wanted an answer, so she gave him that. ''We invest our wealth back into our cities, towns, and villages to help the people. If we have a happy populace, it means they are more productive and can help the kingdom out more.''

Tiamara motioned for him to follow her as she diverted to a wooden door, which she entered.He followed her onto another balcony that overlooked a city.

When Archer saw this, his eyes opened as he spotted it. A breathtaking sight unfolded before him.

He saw a beautiful city nestled between mountains and the sea, stretching as far as his eye could see.

The air was filled with laughter and celebration as happy citizens roamed the streets. Archer watched families, couples, and friends walk through the colorful markets.

Archer noticed every citizen had a big smile and looked generally happy with life. The buildings were soaring towers and quaint houses adorned with intricate designs.

The city's vibrant hues painted a picture of prosperity. Archer marveled at the care taken in its construction.

A festival was in full swing, banners and decorations adorning every corner. Stalls overflowed with exotic foods, and the small wafted through the air.

People gathered in squares, dancing to lively music, and laughter echoed through the streets.

The city was surprisingly clean, streets shining as if freshly washed. Lush gardens and parks adorned the landscape, adding to the city's allure.

Archer couldn't help but notice the harmony between nature and architecture, a testament to the kingdom's commitment to its people and surroundings.

As he was watching, Tiamara gestured toward the bustling city below. "This is Silvershade, our capital. It's the jewel of our kingdom, and many kings and queens have come and gone, yet this city stood the test of time.''

He nodded at the woman's words before she summoned her beautiful silver wings and grinned at him.

''Follow me, little white dragon, and see if you can keep up with an elder,'' Tiamara said as she jumped off the balcony.

Archer chuckled before summoning his wings and following the woman.He launched himself off the balcony with a powerful leap, descending into the open sky above Silvershade.

Feeling the rush of cool wind against his face as he spread his wings wide, the membranes catching the air like sails. The city stretched out below like a beautiful painting.

Archer observed the festival's happenings in the streets—the busy markets, happy dances, and people's laughter.

The air carried the scent of delicious foods and the tunes of lively music. As Archer descended, he adjusted the angle of his wings, feeling the currents of air guide him.

He saw the cityscape rush past him, and he marveled at the intricate architecture and the harmony between nature and civilization.

Tiamara soared ahead, her silver wings cutting through the air with grace. Archer grinned, accepting her challenge, and he surged forward with a powerful beat of his wings.

The city became a blur as he gained speed, weaving between towers and skimming over the rooftops.

Everyone below noticed the spectacle, pointing and cheering as the two dragons raced through the sky.

Archer's heart pounded with exhilaration, the wind whistling in his ears as he maneuvered through the cityscape.

With every twist and turn, he felt the thrill of flight coursing through him. Silvershade unfolded beneath him like a living map, its streets, and squares forming a celebration canvas.

Closing the gap between them, Archer caught up with Tiamara. Side by side, they soared through the city.

Their wings synchronized as they flew. The sun began to dip below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the city as they continued their aerial journey.

As they glided together, Tiamara turned to Archer with a playful smile before teasing him. "Not bad for a little dragon.''

Archer grinned, but she gestured toward a courtyard and instructed, "Touch down there."

He acknowledged with a nod, steering in the designated direction. In view was a sizable house with a backyard garden, enclosed by a towering wall that ensured privacy.

Tiamara landed as he dismissed her wings followed by Archer who landed with a thud causing the woman to giggle.
