After handling the Domain's new residents, Archer turned to Vivienne with a broad smile. "''to go?'' he asked.
She nodded, her fiery red hair catching the light, and he wasted no time. Wrapping an arm around her waist, he teleported them both back to the heart of the Domain. The moment they arrived, a chorus of low chittering filled the air, drawing Archer's attention to the ant queen.
Her expression was grim as she addressed him, ''It seems the Dark Termites are attacking one of my food banks,'' she said, her voice laced with urgency. ''I must go and lead the children in defense.''
When Archer heard this he nodded and opened a portal to her hive but Vivienne quickly kissed him before stepping through. Following that, he went to visit the necromancer sisters and started walking through the forest after leaving the treehouse.
'The others are boarding the ships, the Alliance are reeling from my attacks so I have time,'
He traversed the untamed wilderness, keenly aware of the countless monsters lurking both on the surface and in the depths below, where the Nightmare's scouting tunnels twisted like a hidden maze beneath his feet.
'Seems like they are spreading out, maybe I should keep increasing the size of the Domain?' Archer pondered.
As he pressed on, the towering wall that protected the sisters' underground sanctuary loomed into view. The stench of death clung heavily to the air as he approached, so pungent it forced him to wrinkle his nose in disgust.
With Mana Manipulation, Archer swept the foul odor away, clearing the air around him and causing the aroma of wildflowers to appear once again. Soon enough he teleported to their entrance and heard screams ringing out.
'Are they experimenting? This should be entertaining,' he thought while stepping into the underground world.
Archer walked down the stairs that were covered in darkness but he was able to see everything around him. Five minutes he arrived at the foyer with tunnels leading in all directions.
'They've been decorating this place it seems,' he mused while glancing around at the well-kept place.
There wasn't any furniture apart from a few paintings hanging on the wall which caught his attention.
Thanks to him creating it he knew exactly where they were and headed in that direction until reaching a wooden door that led to their main lab. He knocked and entered only to Morena standing over a struggling woman.
The prisoner was squirming on a metal table while bound and gagged with eyes full of pure fear. While this happened Demacia was cutting apart three people and was covered in blood causing Archer to think, 'She's sweet but then there's this serial killer vibes that I've grown to love.'
Following that, he stepped in and approached Morena and grabbed her thick waist causing her to push back into his crotch as she spoke in a happy tone, ''You finally reappeared you naughty dragon.''
Archer smiled when he saw this and cast Cleanse on the necromancer before hugging the young woman who melted into his embrace. While doing this, Morena finished her experiment and pointed out the mistake. ''You forgot to add the control Runes. They won't attack us but anyone else is fair game.''
Demacia turned around with glowing blue eyes as she exclaimed, ''You're a genius, big sister!''
Following that, she rushed over to the Blood Crawlers, which were trying to get up. When the young woman arrived, she chanted something before waving her hand, and the creature stopped moving.
Archer watched with fascination that the Licker-looking monster crawled toward him and bowed before rushing into the darkness. This caused Demacia to start a celebration which caused Morena to shake her head with a smile.
She approached him and explained, ''Blood Crawlers are horrible weapons built to withstand magic. They charge into the enemy ranks before tearing them apart. We created them to be sacrificial soldiers to aid us in the war.''
''Interesting,'' Archer mumbled when hearing that as the Blood Crawler made its way to a room Demacia was leading it to.
Following that, he turned to Morena's table where the trapped woman tried escaping from the straps. Archer spoke with a curious expression, ''And what are you trying to do?''
The older woman's blue eyes glowed with excitement as she answered, ''Super Soldiers Arch, they will become a nightmare for the Alliance, I'm telling you now these weapons will become fear across Thrylos.''
'She's creating Tyrants! What are these damn sisters up to!' he thought.
''I look forward to seeing them in action during the war,'' Archer shook his head and replied with a growing smile, ''I restocked your ingredients room, go check it out.''
When Morena heard this she entered the stockroom and let out a sharp breath as Archer approached from behind, ''I used over a million mana to create all this, I feel the strain but its vanishing thanks to my Regeneration.''
She turned to him with glowing blue eyes as she muttered, ''You have a million mana? How is that possible.''
Archer started laughing before revealing, ''I have much more than that Morena but I can still feel the strain when using loads.''
Following that, Demacia finally cleaned up and greeted him with a hug as she commented with a big smile, ''We've used loads of prisoners husband, can you get us some more?''
He nodded in agreement and opened a Gate back to Earth and cleared all the prisons of the vile men and women using his Shadow Creature army that covered the world in darkness as they abducted millions of scum.
Once Archer did that he expanded the sister's prison until he stretched deep underground and needed elevators to get to the lowest floors. While this was happening he turned to Demacia, ''Create thousands of Blood Crawlers, we can use them as guards for the present I got for you two.''
