A Journey That Changed The World.

However, Talila soon said, "I can sense our husband nearby. I can't see him, though."

The others all started looking around, which shocked Archer, who thought they wouldn't be able to feel him, but then Halime commented in a confused voice. ''I can't sense anything. How come you lot can?''

Before anyone could reply, Llyniel whispered as she played with her beautiful brown hair. ''I can't sense him either.''

When the two girls finished talking, they looked upset, but Ella quickly figured it out. ''It's because of our dragon tattoos. We all are connected because of them, but now we know why you two can't feel anything. It's because you haven't made love to him yet.''

After the half-elf concluded her remarks, Halime hesitated before opening up. "I told him I was ready. Will he be forceful? My mothers warned me it can be painful."

Teuila turned to her with a smile before answering. ''Yes, it hurts because of his size, but he casts healing magic on us, so we don't feel it for long, but Archer is very caring. He doesn't force us into anything and enjoys it when we take control.''

All the girls nodded except Llyniel and Halime. After chatting for a bit longer, Sera turned toward the wood elf and asked in a teasing voice. ''When are you making love with your husband, Llyn?''

Llyniel shook her head before speaking in a quiet voice. ''I want to wait until we're married. It's a tradition in our kingdom.''

Sera's eyes opened as she smiled. But it was Nala who spoke up. ''Archie will understand. He doesn't pressure us. Look at me; I jumped him and wanted to make love. I was aching for days after, but I loved it.''

Afterward, the girls conversed about Archer, highlighting his playful and cheeky nature, qualities they genuinely admired. Hearing Nala's honest remarks, laughter erupted among them, knowing well the sensations of intimacy with Archer that often left them sore.

However, as they discussed Archer, a creepy feeling was heard, and suddenly, a pitch-black being appeared in the middle of them.

As the girls stared in shock at the ten-foot-tall shadowy figure with piercing violet eyes and a strange glow emanating from its mouth, an instinctive fear gripped them. They watched the being, their expressions a mix of apprehension and curiosity.

Abruptly, the towering silhouette made a foreboding, unexpected shift, prompting the girls to jump in unison, bracing themselves for the worst. Without hesitation, Teuila, Talila, and Nala swiftly readied their weapons, preparing for a fight.

Ella swiftly armed herself with a bow while Sera conjured her claws, the group assuming defensive stances in the face of the mysterious movement.

But to their surprise, the shadowy presence began to transform, its edges softening and features becoming more defined. A radiant smile slowly materialized within the silhouette.

As the transformation continued, the shadowy figure revealed itself as Archer, his familiar and comforting presence emerging from the once-intimidating darkness. The violet glow receded, replaced by their husband's warm and familiar features.

His eyes sparkled with mischief, and a playful grin illuminated his face. They all saw Hemera in his arms while laughing. Relief washed over the group as they realized it was him. The girls exchanged glances, their initial fear giving way to laughter and smiles.

Archer lowered Hemera to the ground, who burst into laughter before speaking, "You should have seen your faces."

Teuila huffed at Hemera and remarked, "Don't laugh, you cheeky elf! How do you expect us to react when our husband suddenly appears looking like that?"

They all started laughing, but suddenly, the headmistress appeared in the garden they were hanging around in and eyed Archer with narrowed eyes before commenting. ''What was that ominous feeling that washed over the college?''

Approaching Ophelia with a smile, Archer greeted her, "Headmistress, you look beautiful this morning."

She eyed him skeptically, emitting a huff before questioning, "Tell me what you did?"

"I'll spill the beans if you agree to let me take you on a date," Archer replied, producing eye rolls from the girls behind him.

Nefertiti commented in a jealous tone. ''You lewd dragon! Why are you trying to woo the headmistress?''

Archer turned to the pink-haired girl with a grin. ''Because she will become mine one day.''

Ophelia listened to his words and got annoyed, but he asked. ''Have you heard of the Shadow Prince?''

When the witch heard this, her eyes widened before speaking. ''Yes. But it's an old legend that has died out. Why do you ask?''

''Because I've become the third Shadow Prince, and that's what you felt,'' Archer told her, which shocked the headmistress.

The girls were listening in and grew curious. Teuila asked while the others just looked at him with amazement. ''How is that possible? You're a white dragon?''

Archer nodded proudly, "I'm a mana dragon, Teu. I can use all the mana I want while learning any spell or magic."

The quick-witted blue-haired Aquarian declared, "Don't you start calling me that! It's bad enough she does it."

She accusingly pointed at the giggling Sera, who couldn't resist teasing, "Teu, don't get so stressed. It's only a nickname."

Teuila turned to her with mock exasperation, "I don't want a nickname. Stop it, you cheeky dragon."

Watching the peculiar exchange, Ophelia couldn't help but comment before leaving, "Do you mind meeting me at my office once classes are finished?"

He replied with a grin, "Of course. I'll be there after college."

Acknowledging him with a nod, the witch vanished from the garden they were chilling in. After ten minutes, the bell went off, alerting everyone to the start of classes.

A lively atmosphere filled the air as they proceeded to class, vibrant chatter echoing around them. Ella, perpetually curious, couldn't resist probing Archer about his schedule.

"Hey, Arch, what class do you have next?" she inquired, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

He paused momentarily while remembering his class before a mischievous smile crossed his face. "Questing and Adventure with Teuila, Talila, and Nala," he replied, emphasizing each name with a playful tone.

When hearing their names, they exchanged amused glances and shared smiles. After hearing that, the half-elf grinned and posed another question. "When are we going to start the dates again? If I remember correctly, it was Llyniel's and Hemera's turn."

"Oh yeah, I remember now. It was Halime and Talila - Sera and Teuila - Sia and Leira. I'll start taking you girls out after I meet with Ophelia," Archer replied.

They all smiled before stepping into the college, and when they did, they spotted Lioran and Cian walking past. The two stopped and greeted them. ''Ah, Arch! There you are. We have Questing and Adventure now. Are you attending?''

He nodded at the lion boy, and that's when Cian spoke. ''Do you think you'll clear the quests today?''

Archer shrugged. ''Yeah. It shouldn't be a problem.''

Cian nodded before Nalika, Leonora, and Cassie appeared with smiles. The large group walked down the main halls. Once some girls reached their classes, they spilt off after kissing Archer.

After saying farewell to most of them, they entered the Questing and Adventure class. The sight of the mostly filled classroom greeted them as they found their seats.

All eyes in the classroom shifted toward Archer and the girls as they entered. Archer proceeded to his desk, greeted by welcoming nods and hellos from fellow students.

Teuila, Talila, and Nala took their seats beside him, wearing smiles that echoed the camaraderie of the close-knit group. Samara stood at the front of the class as the girls settled in while explaining something.

She turned around at the sound of the door.A bright smile crossed her face as her eyes met Archer's. She raised her hand in a casual greeting and beckoned him over.

"Hey, Archer! Glad you could make it. It's been a while since I've seen you." Samara called out, her friendly demeanor evident.

He smiled at the woman before she turned her attention back to the class and began to announce. "I've managed to swing a few free periods for us. That means we have extra time to devote to your quests and adventures. You can use it for planning, preparation, or even diving straight into the action."

A ripple of excitement passed through the students as they absorbed the news. Samara's initiative was met with approving nods and murmurs of appreciation.

"So, let's make the most of it!" Samara concluded with enthusiasm, energizing the class for the upcoming opportunities.

Amidst the lively atmosphere, Archer caught the eyes of Teuila, Talila, and Nala. He nodded at the trio with a knowing smile, silently acknowledging their shared understanding.

However, his attention shifted as he noticed Zarina sitting alone with a moody expression. He walked over to the girl who looked at him with neutral eyes. He gave her a charming smile before speaking. ''Hello, Zarina. How have you been?''

The redhead answered with a fed up voice. ''I've been good. We going to complete the quests today?''
