Chapter 834 Punching A Majestic Creature Like Me

Archer smiled in response, ''We will,'' he said. ''Would you like to help out around the kingdom? There's many things to do.''

''Like what?''

He thought briefly, ''I bought a zoo in Teuila's homeland. I will move it to Draconia and need someone to capture rare monsters.''

When Archer said that, he felt excitement from the Wraith girl, ''I'll do it! I know some jungles where I can get you some,'' she exclaimed. ''But they are dangerous. Will the people working there be fine?''

''Yes,'' he answered. ''I'm sure the old couple knows what they're doing; Teuila is currently dealing with them.''

While flying across the open grasslands, Archer spotted some hairy rhino-looking monsters and swooped down before laying a solid punch, which caused a boom. The impact sent the creatures flying.

This scene shocked Aeris, but Archer said, ''Can you capture this monster? I may have to knock out a few others so we can breed them for the army.''

Without speaking, she jumped off his body and wrapped herself over it as he scanned it.

Following that, Archer knocked out several more, allowing Aeris to hold them in her shadow storage, which fascinated him. After capturing the monsters, she wrapped herself around his body.

Archer felt the heft and grunted, prompting Aeris to delve into the intricacies of her storage skill. The revelation fascinated him, so he tested something out and sent a stream of pure mana into her body.

He felt her body shudder as she let out an adorable moan, ''Ahhhh.''

''I'm sorry, Arch!'' Aeris quickly stuttered.

Her reaction made him laugh. ''Thank you for helping me,'' Archer said with a smile. ''I missed you, Aeris.''

''I've also missed you,'' she replied quietly. ''It's been lovely without you and the girls.''

When Archer heard that, his heart swelled, but he decided to hug her when they arrived in the Zenia Empire. Soon, they crossed over a swamp, and Aeris quickly spoke as her clawed hand pointed to the west, ''Look, Arch!''

His gaze turned to the left, and what he saw shocked him: a herd of elephant-like monsters stood twice as big as the Earth ones. Archer decided to scan the creatures.

''Oh, they're strong. I can use them for the army,' he mused.

This gave him an idea, so he rushed toward the bigger one to challenge the monster and gain control of the herd. Aeris looked shocked as her red eyes widened. ''What are you doing, Arch?''

He didn't respond; instead, he punched the Colossophant's head, sending the massive creature spinning and knocking over several others. The sight was so comical that he and Aeris laughed until their stomachs hurt.

When the creature heard this, she knelt with her herd, proclaiming, ''You're the Great Lord, the man who walks the great grassland and becomes its overlord. With you leading my people, we can reach a height that no Colossophant has ever reached.''

The massive monster knelt even lower. ''Great One, we will follow you until the end of time and crush your enemy.''

Archer looked at the monster and chuckled at its amusing theatrics. Then he took hold of Aeris's hand, and Blinks reappeared on top of the Colossophant, who was shocked.

While standing, he could see all across the grassland, and thanks to his mana senses, he sensed thousands of creatures. When he felt this, an idea popped into his mind, causing him to send Aisha a message, [Send more transport ships along with the 2nd Fleet and order them to bombard the Swarm Monsters they find along the coast]

The dragonkin woman confirmed before getting back to work. Once that was over, he turned to the Lionarus, ''Your name will be Brutus,'' he said before giving him an order. ''Find more of your kind and tell their pride leaders I challenge them to a fight.''

When the lion-like monsters heard his order, they all stood up, and it was only then that Archer realized there were more than fifty of them here. They were like lions from Earth but more savage-looking and twice the size, which worked for him.

Archer could use them as a surprise. No one would expect a king to go around the wildlands collecting an army of monsters. After that, he looked at the Colossophant who was daydreaming and stamped his foot, ''Oi woman,'' he said. ''Your name will be Berty. Now let's search for more of your kin.''

''Do not disrespect a lady by striking her head, young man,'' Berty complained. ''You should treat your elders with respect.''

''Shut up Berty,'' Archer replied. ''I will punch you again, and this time, I won't use healing magic on you. Now let's go.''

The Colossophant Matriarch grumbled something before alerting the herd to follow her and their new leader. When the other monsters heard this, they all looked at Archer, who smirked at them as Berty started walking.

[Aeris's POV]

When she saw Archer punch the house-sized monster and it went flying, she was shocked: 'How is he so strong? He's three years younger than me.'

Aeris watched as he dealt with the leader of these intimidating creatures who were staring at her like she was a bug. But then something happened as Archer caught a well-known grassland hunter called Lionarus by the throat as if it were nothing.

'Goddess! What sort of monster have I got myself involved with,' Aeris thought while watching Archer treat a notorious predator like a house cat.

All Aeris could hear was the Colossophant making strange noises, while Archer replied similarly, which confused her. 'Does he speak monster?'

When she stopped paying attention and turned to the surrounding landscape, it was like a wilderness with rolling hills covered in various trees. While watching this, the monsters she had caught earlier were acting up.

Aeris turned to Archer, who was scanning the horizon, ''Hey. Those creatures from earlier are trying to escape.''

Archer smiled while running his fingers across her cheeks, which made her blush as he replied, ''Let them out in a second and stay on Berty.''

'Whose Berty? Don't tell me he named the Colossophant!' Aeris was losing her mind at the weirdness of it all.

Taming monsters by punching them in submission was so amusing. While she was lost in thought, Archer tapped her, ''Aeris, can you let them out in the middle? I will beat them up and make them part of my new army.''

''Okay, Arch!'' she responded with a smile.
