A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 1047: Work Has Picked Up



"Interrupt, and I will burn this country to the ground-Liza or no Liza. This man murdered me and roamed free. I will show Earth what real justice looks like," Archer warned, his voice like a dark promise.

Without hesitation, he summoned two Shadow Creatures, their eerie forms materializing at his side. He commanded them to lift Noah, holding him upright as Archer stepped forward, 'Now for the fun, how can I make him feel pain?' he thought with an evil grin that spooked

everyone.

With a menacing gleam in his eyes, he summoned his claws, tearing away the bottom of Noah's pants. "I'm going to flay you, human," he hissed, his voice cold and ruthless. "You will stay awake. You will scream. And I will take my pound of flesh."

Noah squirmed, helpless, trapped in place as Archer's claws sliced through his skin, peeling it away with methodical precision. The Special Agents watched in horror, frozen as his screams echoed, filled with agony.

Archer's eyes were cold, unwavering, as he continued until his murderer passed out from the unbearable pain. Once Noah's legs were flayed entirely, he cast Aurora Healing, the wounds knitting together instantly.

His murderer awoke with a guttural scream, his mind reeling from the fresh torment. Archer slapped him hard, silencing the scream with a mocking smile. "Now, now, no need for that," he said darkly. "Save your strength. I have much more in store for you, Noah."

Then, Archer looked at the Shadow Creatures and smiled, "Keep the murderer in the darkness. I want him to feel what it's like to be in nothingness."

Noah soon vanished, which shocked the special agents watching the scene. Archer cast Cleanse over the garden and got rid of the blood; once that was done, he turned to Ava with a smile, "Sorry about that. I had some personal business to attend to, but ignore all that."

The black-haired woman looked at him with narrowed eyes before looking at the others and waving them away. She turned back to him while speaking, "Why was you torturing the man? Wasn't that over the top?"

Archer let out a bitter laugh as he replied, "He killed me, Ava. Stabbed me over and over, tore me apart from the inside out. He's the reason I grew up in a nightmare, tortured and abused by my own family. I didn't even know what love was until I met my girls. So don't tell me it's too much-Noah deserves far worse."

Following that, Archer summoned his wings and quickly took off before he got angry with the agent. While flying, he sent Alexa a text and soared across the Atlantic Ocean, using Aura Detector to see if he could find anything.

But he found nothing and continued riding the wind, pushing himself to go even faster. Archer soared high above the Atlantic, his wings cutting through the cold, biting air. Below, the ocean churned endlessly, a vast, restless expanse. Yet something caught his eye.

Several ships dotted the surface, their lights flickering like faint stars against the dark water. Some were slow-moving cargo vessels laboring through the waves. Archer paid them no mind, focusing ahead as he pushed harder.

Soon, the distant silhouette of Europe began to emerge on the horizon. He sped up and descended closer to the surface to avoid the airplanes roaming around; it took him ten more minutes to reach the U.K.

Archer flew straight to Alexa's house, where she was waiting for him. Not long later, he arrived and landed in the garden, only to see the beautiful navy-haired woman standing there with a beaming smile.

He flew to her house, where she was already waiting for him. Moments later, he touched down in the garden, his gaze falling on the stunning navy-haired woman standing there with a beaming smile.

Alexa rushed to him, throwing her arms around him in a tight embrace. "It's so good to see you, love," she whispered, her voice tinged with concern. "What happened earlier? Mom told me you left with an enraged expression."

"I caught Noah and have him trapped in the shadows," Archer replied, pulling her into a warm embrace.

When Alexa heard the name, she stiffened, but he reassured her, "My creatures have him, and he can't get out, so you're safe."

She nodded in understanding and led him inside, smoothly shifting the conversation. "Work has picked up. We landed a dozen new clients, all recommended by the U.S. government." They soon reached her room and stepped inside just as Archer responded, "That might be Elizabeth. I did mention to her that I was with you."

Alexa grinned as she slumped down on her bed, "Well, whatever she did has put a lot of labor on my shoulders, but it's always good to be busy."

Archer walked over to the window, his eyes narrowing as a storm loomed on the horizon, fighter jets roaring overhead. He sighed and said, "At least you're staying busy. I'm starting to feel the pull to return to Thrylos. I need to expand Draconia and take care of the Alliance."

"Will you come back here?" she asked worriedly.

Archer chuckled as he replied, "Of course, but you're coming with me. You can help Ella run my company. Between the two of you, it'll thrive."

When Alexa heard that, she smiled before nodding, "That would be good. I need a change of scene as this place is getting worse. Even Mom wants to leave but put off the American move because of business and the investigation."

His eyebrow raised when hearing this, and he asked, "Any more news on who attacked you lot?"

She shook her head while revealing, "The government hasn't found the real culprits, but we know it is a Russian Family we compete with. They hired assassins, which is becoming a common thing nowadays."

Archer's anger flared, and he summoned his Shadow Creatures with a wave. Their dark forms materialized around him as he commanded them to protect everyone in the Davis family and

their home.

Startled by the shadows' sudden appearance, Alexa leaped into his lap, her heart racing. As the shadows melted away into the night, Archer could feel them silently circling the property,

standing guard.

"What did you do?" she asked, joining him by the window.

"Made sure you will be safe, but it looks like things are getting worse," Archer replied, pointing into the sky. "The Swarm leader is back for revenge; I will summon the three girls to

protect you."

Following that, Archer activated the dragon tattoos, and seconds later, Maeve, Ashoka, and Nyx appeared in the room. They were confused, but he spoke seriously, "Ladies, ensure Lexi is protected. I know you three can look after yourselves."

They nodded, but the orange-haired woman asked concernedly, "Another fight? How are they tracking you so quickly?"

Archer smiled before answering, "My mana, and after this fight, I should be close to having enough to open a Gate back to Thrylos."

When the three heard this, beautiful smiles appeared, and they all agreed to protect the mansion with a nod. Archer used Blink to appear outside as the Terravian Leader on Earth

appeared with a cocky smile.

"Looks like we can pick up where we left off," the creature said smugly.

Archer didn't reply while casting Blink to reappear in front of the enemy and punched it in the chest, causing a loud clap. The Terravian was sent crashing into a nearby field as he thought,

'Now let's finish this.'

He took off and followed the enemy, landing with a crash in the open field. His eyes locked on the Terravian Leader, slowly rising from the crater. "You're fast," the creature growled, brushing the dirt off its chest, "but you're nothing compared to what's coming."

"I don't need to be fast," Archer said coldly, "I just need to finish you."

Without warning, he disappeared in a blink, reappearing directly in front of the Terravian. His fist, crackling with raw energy, slammed into the creature's armored torso, sending

shockwaves.

The earth beneath them split from the force of the blow, fissures spreading outward as the Terravian was thrown back, crashing into a boulder with a deafening roar. Archer sent a dozen Eldritch Blasts and Plasma Missiles that slammed into the creature's body.

Explosions erupted around him, the ground trembling violently beneath his feet as the shockwaves battered the Terravian Leader. Realizing the creature was beginning to rise, he sprinted forward, urgency fueling his every step.

As Archer closed the distance, he channeled his Mana Manipulation into a powerful punch aimed squarely at the creature's face. The impact echoed through the chaos, but to his shock, the Terravian caught his fist mid-strike, a sinister smile spreading across its face. The creature crushed Archer's hand, but he retaliated with a tail swipe that slapped the enemy

in the chest and sent it crashing into a nearby tree. Before the creature could recover, he shot forward again, summoning his claws in mid-air.

They gleamed wickedly in the moonlight as he slashed across the Terravian's chest, leaving deep, sizzling gashes in its armor. Black blood splattered across the ground, hissing as it hit

the earth.
