Chapter 835 What Is That Smell
Chapter 835 What Is That Smell
'What the fuck is going on! Why is he treating this a game,' Aeris internally complained as Archer battered the monsters.
She watched as Archer threw them around like they were sacks of rice while hitting others, but what he did to the bigger one was bad. Aeris soon watched him beat the daylights out of the poor monsters, causing her to feel bad for the trembling creatures.
'He's brutal, but I understand it, he needs to be like this to survive against all the enemies his got,' Aeris thought while she saw him healing the Grassland Rhinos while speaking to the monster.
Aeris continued to watch him until the group of monsters nodded like chickens, which made her laugh, and she started to understand Archer even more.

[Back to Archer]
''No more getting rude to me, or I will beat you again? Do you understand Ross?''
''Yeah, man! Just don't slap me again, that hurt,'' a man's voice replied.
That's when one of the other Grassland Rhinos charged at him. Archer saw this and looked at Ross, who almost looked ashamed of his fellow monster. All he did in return was step backward to dodge the charge.
But the rhino flew past him and crashed into one of its elders, causing the older monster to start beating on the younger one and making Archer laugh. He turned back to Ross, ''Like I told the cats, find more of your kind and say your leader wants to challenge them.''
''You'll fight more of us?'' the monster asked timidly.
''Yes,'' Archer replied with a smile. ''I will fight them, beat them, and then create an army out of you.''
Ross, the Grassland Rhino, nodded its big head before rushing off into the tall grass, leaving him, Aeris, and the Colossophants, who were watching the scene with wide eyes and regarded him with respect.
Berty slowly approached him and spoke in a tone of worship which baffled him, ''Great One. I know many watering holes where you can find strong monsters.''
Archer turned to the Matriarch and spoke, ''Okay. Take us there, and we are heading south to the human lands.''
The Colossophant nodded her head. Archer grabbed Aeris's hand and Blinked. The couple reappeared on the monster's back as she started walking, followed by her herd, and they ate some of the grass.
While traveling, Archer created a couple of chairs for them to relax in. Once he was sat down, Aeris commented as she got comfortable, ''Why are we traveling on the back of Berty? And why did you name her such a strange name?''
Archer was just about to reply when someone appeared and sunk a knife into Aeris's chest, causing her to fly off the back of the Colossophant. When the black-haired girl hit the ground, he was in shock.
Something inside him clicked as his rage consumed him, causing him to fly forward and grab the being who stabbed his Dark Wraith. Archer soon realized that these were ninja-looking soldiers.
With that, he cast Soul Sunder, ripped the man's soul from his body, and devoured it like a demon before doing the same thing to the others that appeared. Archer tore their lifeless corpses apart until the surrounding grassland was covered in blood.
When he calmed down, Archer felt a hand gently placed on his arm, causing him to spin around. Standing before him was Aeris, a sweet smile gracing her pretty face. His eyes traveled down, and he noticed a rip in her dress, but otherwise, she appeared unharmed.
''What happened to you?'' Archer asked while grabbing a hold of her.
Aeris giggled, ''I'm a Wraith, remember? Physical attacks cannot kill me, only harm me,'' she answered while being wrapped in a tight hug.
As Archer did that, he sorted through the assassin's memories and could only trace the source to a noble in Starfall City. 'Wait until I go get Leira. I will crucify the whole family regardless of what the empire says.'
He tightened his hug to the Wraith girl, who melted against him. While the two did this, Berty said, ''Great One. I smell a Grizzarok closing in on us from the West.''
''Okay,'' Archer grinned, ''Watch this.''
After speaking, he Blinked off Berty's back and appeared in front of a massive grizzly bear-looking monster. Without wasting time, the creature swiped at Archer, who blocked it using the wings he summoned.
The monster's paw slammed against his white scales, and Archer lashed out with his tail and took the creature's legs out, causing it to crash to the ground. Then he tamed it by beating it some more.
Following that, they continued traveling while beating more monsters who joined his growing army with shocked Aeris. She was looking at all kinds of creatures, from twenty-foot-
tall giants to small, vicious-looking dinosaurs that snapped at anything nearby.
Archer found them amusing to tame, so he kept slapping them away until they fainted. Then, he used Aurora Healing on the monsters, bringing them back to full power, which allowed him to control the dog-sized creatures.
Once they crossed the border, Archer told the monster horde to travel through the empire and keep heading south until they reached a forest on the coast and waited for him. He also told them not to attack anyone unless they were attacked first.
Berty agreed to lead the horde, and Archer shooed her away as her voice annoyed him. As they vanished, he summoned his wings while scooping up the amazed Aeris before taking off and heading toward Alexandria, the capital of Nefertiti's homeland.
The Wraith girl's smile never faded as she trailed small kisses up and down Archer's neck, eliciting his shivers. As they neared the city, a spell hurtled towards them, but Archer's Anti-Magic Skill deflected it. Despite this, the impact still sent him flying backward.
More magic flew at Archer, but the skill blocked everything. He was sent crashing to the ground while shielding Aeris, who also transformed into her Wraith form. Once the duo recovered, he squinted at the wall and saw the soldiers lining up to fire again.
Archer chuckled, ''Idiots,'' he said before using Blink to appear on the wall just as Aeris let out a shrill scream that stunned the Zenian soldiers. He saw a pink flame flying directly toward him as she did that.
A happy smile appeared on his face as Nefertiti crashed into him and sent the two flying over the side of the wall, causing Aeris to panic. The Wraith girl rushed forward, wrapping them in her shadow as they hit the ground.
When Aeris returned to her humanoid form, she lay on the soft grass while Nefertiti straddled Archer. The pink-haired succubus's eyes glowed with untold love before she quickly kissed him.
Archer was sent to heaven when feeling her soft, plump lips against his own. He returned her kiss while taking a handful of her juicy behind. Soon enough, they broke apart as Nefertiti's eyes landed on Aeris.
The Wraith girl watched them with bright red cheeks, but her red eyes were filled with fascination. Archer smiled at the short-haired as Nefertiti spoke in a knowing voice, ''Finally admitted to yourself? Now you have let me make this clear.''
Nefertiti stood up and approached Aeris before holding her hand out. ''Don't try interrupting my private time with my husband,'' she said. ''You can have him once I've drained him good.''
Archer watched a radiant smile appear on her pretty face as she continued, ''I need him inside me, Aeris.'' She wrapped her arm around the petite girl's shoulder. ''I hope we get on, but don't get in the way of me and my husband. Can we agree on that? Otherwise, you will get burnt by my arcane magic.''
''I have no intention of getting in the way of your relationship with our husband, Nefi,'' Aeris honestly replied. ''I just want to be friends with you girls.''
His shock upon hearing the succubus's words was palpable, and his expression betrayed his surprise. As Nefertiti advanced towards him, she pressed her chest against his, causing his breath to hitch.
''I know you will never leave me, and now I know you love me,'' she said with a loving smile. ''Come, let's head to the local inn. My parents are busy sorting out the empire's land.''
Archer nodded in understanding as they walked to the nearest inn. Nefertiti turned to Aeris before entering. ''Just remember not to affect the other's relationships, Wraith girl,'' she said with a smile. ''The others are too friendly to say that, but it had to be done.''
Aeris nodded with a smile as they entered the establishment. Despite the sudden hush that fell over the place, it didn't deter them from conversing about the recent events across Zenia.
He recounted their tranquil flight over Mediterra, prompting him to remember to collect the three elves after dropping off Nefertiti at the 1st Fleet. Aeris gestured towards an empty table, and they all settled down to continue their discussion.
Nefertiti looked at Archer and scrunched up her little nose, ''What is that smell? It's disgusting,'' she said in an annoyed voice.
He laughed before casting Aurora Healing on himself and Aeris while explaining, ''Well, what you are smelling is Berty, and I will be giving her a talking too when we leave the city.''
''Berty?'' Nefertiti said as a confused expression crossed her face.
Aeris giggled, ''He tamed a herd of Colossophants and many other monsters. It was fascinating,'' she said in an amused tone.
''Colossophants! How did you control such a monster husband?'' Nefertiti while looking into his eyes.
