Chapter 937: Are You Satisfied With Us
Archer stood on the balcony of his room admiring the beautiful bay after boarding the First Fleet's Flagship, which was now sailing out of Dragons Cove. The seawall gate opened, allowing the vessels to exit the kingdom into the stormy sea outside.
The seawater rushed in, but the DNS Archer's Pride barreled through it before making its way out to the open sea, followed by dozens of ships. This caused Archer to smile and think, 'At least there's enough protection; they won't have to rely on me to fight their battles.'
Following that, he turned his attention to the chaotic sea all around them, which caused waves to crash against the ship's side. Archer noticed no sailors were on the top deck, thanks to the risk of being washed overboard.
While on the balcony, Teuila joined him with a loving smile as she closed the door behind him. "Hello, handsome. You look lonely out here," she said.
Archer turned to the blue-haired princess with a warm smile. He pulled her close, wrapping his arms around her waist before capturing her lips in a passionate kiss. Teuila melted into his embrace, her body softening against his.
As they kissed, Archer's hands wandered with a playful touch, gently squeezing Teuila's toned behind. The unexpected gesture elicited a soft moan from the Aquarian Princess, which mingled with his kiss.
When they finally pulled apart, Teuila beamed up at him with a teasing glint in her eyes, "Why do you always have to be so hands-on?" she asked, her tone light and flirtatious. "Not that I'm complaining, but with twenty-something fiancées, wouldn't you get bored?"
Archer shook his head, "Of course not. I love each one of you girls in my own way and love spending time with each of you," he explained before kissing her small nose and earning a giggle.
"Are you satisfied with us?" she suddenly asked another question.
"Yes," he nodded with an honest smile. "Don't get me wrong, I can still go even after seeing everyone, but it isn't affecting me."
Without a word, Teuila's playful demeanor shifted abruptly. In a swift motion, she pounced on him, sending Archer sprawling into the comfortable chair behind them. She straddled him, her blue eyes gleaming with unmistakable desire while smiling.
The intensity of her gaze left no doubt in his mind about her intentions. After that, Archer gave the blue-haired beauty she wanted, and the two of them started to make love on the balcony until both were tired.
However, that wasn't all, as he sensed the others in his room. He quickly cast Cleanse on the two before carrying Teuila inside and putting her on the large bed. After that, he turned to Nala, Brooke, Demetra, Edith, and Olivia, causing him to chuckle before tending to the five women.
Archer cast Timewarp around the room, creating a bubble of suspended time that allowed them to enjoy their moments without constraint. When he dismissed Time Warp, everyone except him was fast asleep, sprawled contentedly around the room.
Minutes later, he looked at their peaceful, slumbering forms with a fond smile. Archer placed each woman in the bed and kissed them on the forehead before leaving the room. When he stepped outside, he noticed the dark corridors, with only dim blue lights lining the walls.
He started going to the galley to get something to eat and bumped into the Draconian Defence Minister Jaya Darkwater, who was wrapped up in a thick blanket. Archer smiled charmingly at the tiger woman before getting her, "Evening Jaya. What are you doing up?" "Your Majesty, I was just going to get some tea as I couldn't sleep," she answered politely. "Can I join you?" Archer asked. "The others are asleep, and I'm not tired yet."
Olivia glanced into his eyes with a weary, resigned expression and said, "I'm a forty-one- year-old woman with seven children and three grandchildren. No one in the empire would consider marrying me, so when false evidence was presented to Alistair, he believed it and chose to marry my younger sister instead, solidifying the Anderson family's position in the region. As a result, I was banished."
He looked at her, puzzled. "There's nothing wrong with your age. I find you beautiful and incredibly smart. People often don't make sense. So what if your children have disowned you? I believe in you and your worth. If you choose, I will give you more children, and they will grow up knowing how wonderful their mother truly is."
"What if I can't give you any, though? Will you throw me away?" Olivia asked in a quiet voice.
Archer shook his head, "No, but you will be giving me three daughters who look like you but will act like me," he answered with a chuckle.
Olivia's head snapped toward him, and with gleaming pink eyes, she demanded, "How do you
know that?"

[Jaya Darkwater's POV]
"The world has seen enough darkness, and it seems fate has given us a bright star to beat it back,'' Jaya mumbled as she watched Archer leave the kitchen.
She was brought back to reality as the door slammed shut, causing Jaya to look at the plan the king had left behind. The tiger woman went through it and saw many strange things that confused her, but that was technical.
'Archer wants to build underwater bases that are entrances to the Under Realm?' she thought.
The bases were as big as his palace but were built for research, military, and industry. The Wyldheart Company was the only outside entity involved with the deep sea bases, which caused her to think, 'These could be useful. Everyone knows the underwater world is much better for
resource harvesting."
Her eyes widened in shock as she examined the kingdom's underwater weaponry blueprints. One design caught her attention-a massive, cylindrical machine transporting sailors deep
beneath the surface.
"This could be ideal for launching surprise attacks and obliterating enemy ports and harbors,' Jaya thought, her excitement noticeable as a smile spread across her face.
She poured another cup of tea, her attention riveted on the plans. As she became increasingly engrossed in Archer's detailed designs, a sense of excitement and curiosity took hold. She resolved to discuss these revolutionary ideas with Meera as soon as possible.
