Chapter 312 Violet Lightning
They sat in the infirmary for a while before leaving for the domain. When they entered the treehouse the girls flopped down on the sofas.
But Archer wanted a relaxing bath and told them to let him be for a while. He walked into the bath chambers and got undressed.
He dropped into the water and laid back as he closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of the hot water washing over him.
Archer decided to create a new spell cause he still could create one due to ranking up a while back.
[Spell Creation activated]
Once he activated it he started to imagine the spell he wanted. Archer wanted a spell that could nullify all magic in an area around him.
That's when he saw a notification appeared in his view.
[Null Void created]
Archer checked the information of the spell.
[The Null Void is a magic spell that creates a zone of twenty meters around the user where all magic, spells, and enchantments stop working.]
After he was done with creating his new spell he decided to check his status as the hot water made him feel good.
His muscles relaxed and the pain soon died down. Once he was settled he mumbled.
''Status.''

[Stamina: 7600>7900]
[Dragon's Breath: 7>8]

[Analyze: 2>3]
When Archer saw that he ranked up he got excited because it meant he could create another spell which he knew would be very useful to him.
[Spell Creation activated]
He repeated what he did with the previous spell and imagined the spell he wanted to create and a notification popped up.
[Immunity: Poison, Curses, Charm, Disease, and mind control do not affect you - The skill is passive]
Pleased with the results he continued to relax until he got out of the bath and started getting ready.
When he was done he stepped out of the bath chambers and looked around but the treehouse was quiet.
He closed his eyes and started searching for the girls. Archer soon found them in their rooms asleep.
That's when Sia came to mind and he decided to go see her. He cast Gate to her quarters in the castle.
Once the portal was open he stepped through and looked around. But she wasn't there, so he walked out of the room.
As he did that he's unexpected appearance caused the guards outside to jump back but quickly recognized him.
''Where is Sia?'' He asked them.
One of the soldiers answered. ''She is meeting with the castle commander. Shall I lead you there?''
He nodded and followed the soldier. The two walked for some time until they reached a room.
When they got closer they heard a man's voice shouting. ''General you are under my command and will do what I say!''
''No, I won't be leading any more men into ambushes, I've lost many soldiers already and so have you.''? He heard Sia reply.
Field marshal Dorian got angry and started shouting at her which made Archer angry.
He barged in not caring about the soldier or the people inside. When he entered he saw Sia sitting there with a look of anger on her face and four people sitting opposite her.
The man was smiling but it soon vanished when he spotted Archer. He quickly spoke. ''Why are you barging into my room boy? I will have you arrested and thrown into the dungeon.''
Sia turned around and when she spotted him her eyes widened but before she could talk the man snapped. ''Well answer me or are you stupid?''
When the soldier heard the commander's words he shook his head and knew what was going to happen, so he got out of there.
Archer vanished from the entrance, he instantly reappeared next to the man and slapped him, which sent him flying to the floor.
Sia jumped up and went to stop him but he looked at her with his blazing violet eyes. He grabbed hold of the man.
He turned to the window and cast Blink. Archer appeared on a roof outside to the shock of everyone inside.
But that wasn't enough he Blinked to the highest tower in the castle. He stood on the edge with the man dangling.
Archer had an evil grin as he spoke. ''Why were you shouting at my woman human? Tell the truth or die.''
Dorian became nervous and started talking. ''I wanted her to lure out the Misthaven troops so the main force could attack.''
When he heard this he got even angrier as he thought to himself. 'He was going to sacrifice her for his own gain.'
''What was your goal?'' He spoke in a low voice.
The man knew the boy was angry but believed he wouldn't be killed as he was an Avalonian Field Marshal. ''To gain favor in court, she is only a general which the empire has many.''
As the man spoke Archer became enraged as he spoke. ''You disgusting human. You will die tonight and the whole empire will know it was me.''
A broad grin spread across his face as he drew a deep breath and launched the man into the air as he let out a stream of dragon's fire.
It hit the man causing him to burst into flames as he plummeted to the ground and crashed into the castle courtyard.
He watched the man's burning body fall to the ground with a splat. Archer was pleased with the outcome he wouldn't tolerate disrespect.
That's when he heard footsteps from below him, he looked down and saw Sia and the other people who were in the room watching the Field Marshal floor to his death.
Archer Blinked and reappeared in front of Sia. He brought his hand to her cheek as he spoke. ''Where are these enemy soldiers?''
The older woman spoke as she leaned into his touch and spoke. ''They are coming from the south and have been hard to deal with.''
He nodded with a grin as he leaned forward and whispered into her long ear. ''My Sia I will deal with them. Tell the emperor it was me who killed him, he won't be able to do anything, I'll meet you in your room later.''
Sia smiled as she heard him and she kissed his cheek before dealing with the Field Marshal's death.
Archer looked up at the rising sun and summoned his wings as he took off south the deal with the soldiers.
He flapped his wings and sped up as he was using Aura Detector to find anything. While flying for an hour the sun fully rose.
Even though he hadn't slept it didn't affect him as he searched. After flying for a while he got a ping and headed toward it.
In his search, all he found were caravans and beasts but now he found them. Archer rushed forward and soon saw a large camp that was located on Misthaven's border.
With a graceful glide, he descended through the foliage, his boots landing softly on a sturdy tree branch.
He crouched there, his violet eyes narrowing as he peered through the leaves.
Ahead, a dense thicket of trees gave way to a clearing where the Misthaven soldiers had set up their camp.
The camp sprawled before him, a chaotic mix of tents, wagons, and activity.
Misthaven soldiers moved about, their armor glinting in the morning sun as they bustled with preparations. The scent of a recently kindled campfire wafted through the air.
His eyes scanned the scene with a mix of curiosity and calculation. He observed the soldiers' routines and noted their numbers.
In the center of the camp, a large tent bore the markings of a command post. Archer assumed that's where their leader or commander was likely to be found.
He didn't know what to do but a smile crept across his face as he just decided to do it the old-fashioned way.
Archer cast Element Bolt and Crown of Stars. A bolt made of pure lightning appeared above him and he imagined targeting the middle of the camp.
It shot forth like a streak of violet lightning, a brilliant arc that cut through the air.
The soldiers, absorbed in their tasks, barely had time to react as the bolt struck the ground in their midst.
The impact unleashed a blinding explosion of magical energy. A shockwave rippled outward, lifting dirt and debris into the air.
Soldiers were thrown off their feet, their shouts of alarm drowned by the deafening roar of the arcane detonation.
Archer watched as the mana bolt's radiant burst enveloped the soldiers, its energy disorienting and dazzling them.
They stumbled and staggered, shields and weapons falling from their grasp as they tried to regain their bearings.
For a moment, the Misthaven camp was plunged into chaos.
Soldiers yelled and scrambled to their feet, their armor clinking and weapons clattering as they struggled to make sense of the sudden onslaught.
Archer seized the opportunity, his wings unfurling as he launched himself from the tree branch.
