A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 555 Undead Dragon

Aslan had a shocked look on his face, but Tiamat laughed before explaining. ʼʼThatʼs fine. It will be a small incursion, but the witches are fighting the dragons that inhabit that place.ʼʼ

He nodded while commenting. ʼʼIʼll travel there first and let my army do their job. I want to earn a place in the Celestial Magic Tournament.ʼʼ

Tiamat chuckled before turning to the king and queen, who knelt, which caused Archer to start laughing. He quickly started teasing the elder dragons. ʼʼYouʼre bowing to my wife, you know?

Upon hearing this, the couple grew irritated with Archerʼs disrespectful treatment of their goddess. Tiamara shot him an annoyed glare, provoking a reaction from the goddess. ”Donʼt give him that look. Canʼt you see Iʼm not offended? The boyʼs not entirely wrong, though it wonʼt happen anytime soon.”

Upon hearing this revelation, Tiamara and Aslanʼs silver eyes widened in shock, but they quickly nodded in understanding. Seeing their reaction, Archer couldnʼt help but chuckle to himself.

After that, Tiamat looked at him with a loving smile as she informed him. ʼʼWell, with that done, I can go back to my palace. I just wanted to warn you, my little white dragon.ʼʼ

She smiled at Aslan and Tiamara. ʼʼTry to teach him what you can, but as you can see, heʼs not doing so bad. He does need to act smarter, but heʼs only sixteen. Just keep an eye on him for me.ʼʼ

Before the goddess vanished, Archer blew her a kiss and then grinned, which shocked the silver dragon couple, who were looking at him like he was crazy.

Tiamat disappeared, and the three were left standing on the balcony. Archer turned to Aslan and commented with a charming smile. ʼʼShall we continue our lesson, or can I see my girls?ʼʼ

Aslan smiled before speaking. ʼʼFollow me, boy. Thereʼs much we can talk about.ʼʼ

He followed the older man after Tiamara said bye as she flew off. Aslan commented as they entered the mansion. ʼʼYou see, being powerful has its benefits but also its downfalls. If you donʼt know how to wield it, then youʼre only a glass cannon waiting for someone stronger to break you.ʼʼ

They exited the room the balcony was connected to and walked down the corridors of the mansion. Archer saw maids who had smiles on their faces as they went about their duties.

The two proceeded with their walk through the silver dragonʼs home, eventually arriving at a crossroads.

Aslan guided him to the left, and during this journey, the elder dragon shared his thoughts. ”Iʼve seen some of your battles, and thereʼs no denying your strength. However, as I mentioned earlier, your fighting style resembles that of a wild animal. To confront more formidable opponents, You need to use a smarter strategy and be more tactical.”

They stopped at a large door before Aslan pushed the doors open to find a large library. Archer looke around and saw that it dwarfed his one. He swore that he would make his bigger but remembered the island the northern kingdom gave him.

Seeing the grin on Archerʼs face, Aslan chuckled and remarked, ”What plan have you hatched this time, boy? I recognize that expression.”

ʼʼOh. Some kingdom gave me an island, which is quite big, if I remember, but I need to ask one of the girls about it. I wanted to set up a dragon kingdom there when Iʼm older.ʼʼ Archer answered as he approached a bookshelf.

Aslan nodded his head before motioning at the books and spoke pleasantly. ʼʼYouʼre welcome to learn any spell in here if you wish. Iʼll leave you here because I have to deal with matters of state.ʼʼ

Archer turned to see a Dragon-kin man standing at the door waiting for the king. He nodded to the man and handed him two bracelets, which confused the elder dragon.ʼʼ

He held up his wrist and showed Aslan as he explained. ʼʼThese are for you and Tiamara. Send mana into it, and you can contact me if you need help.ʼʼ

Aslan smiled as he thanked Archer, but then a look of shock appeared. The older dragon rushed to a shelf before searching for a specific spellbook.

When Archer saw this, he walked over to him and asked in a confused voice. ʼʼAre you going, senile old man?ʼʼ

ʼʼNo, we need your help with something, boy. Do you want the location of a horde of treasure that belongs to my father?ʼʼ

Archerʼs eyes narrowed in suspicion, which caught Aslan off guard, but he quickly explained in full. ʼʼOur fields have been dry for weeks now, and if this continues, we will lose this yearʼs harvest, but hereʼs a spell that will allow you to produce water over them to sustain them until the rains return.ʼʼ

When he heard the dragonʼs reasoning, he nodded before questioning. ʼʼWhy havenʼt you recovered the treasure? Youʼre a demi-god. Is there something guarding it thatʼs stronger than you or Tiamara?ʼʼ

Aslan nodded with a sigh before informing him. ʼʼUnfortunately, an undead dragon guards the treasure, and sea beasts of demi-

god rank or lower guard the island. So itʼs impossible to travel there.ʼʼ

He still wasnʼt convinced, so he questioned the king. ʼʼWhy not fly over it?ʼʼ

ʼʼWe did, but the sea beastʼs reach is far, and the undead dragon attacks when I get closer. I can escape from it, but fighting it is out of the question.ʼʼ Aslan commented as he found the book he was looking for and handed it to him.

He took it and saw it was a water spell, but Archer knew he didnʼt need to learn it, so he refused it before declaring with a grin. ʼʼI can do it without the spell. Just show me the place you need help with.ʼʼ

When the elder dragon heard this, he smiled before leading Archer out of the library and along some corridors before reaching a courtyard. He summoned his silver wings and soared into the air.

After doing this, Archer did the same thing and followed the king as they flew over the city until they reached the grasslands. The two flew for an hour until they reached loads of farms dotted all over the land.

Aslan landed and spoke from up high. ”When Frostwinter began, we thought we had plenty of food in our storerooms. But we used too much this year. So, the farmers decided to grow kupak, our winter crop. It only lasts a week at best, but it grows fast in the mana-rich soil.”

When Archer heard this, he nodded and started casting Mana Manipulation. He imagined tons of water raining down, helping all the crops.

[Aslanʼs POV]

Aslan watched the boy float higher than him and closed his eyes. When he saw this, he wondered what Archer would do, but dark clouds appeared overhead.

He was surprised when rain started falling and washed over the dry crops. When the farmers below saw this, they started cheering, which made Aslan smile.

After the boy finished, he turned to him with a grin. ʼʼAnywhere else need watering, old man?ʼʼ

When Aslan heard this, he got annoyed but ignored the teasing and nodded. ʼʼYes. All the farms need water, and when youʼre done, Iʼll give you the map to the treasure.ʼʼ

Archerʼs eyes glowed once the word treasure was mentioned, but he soon rushed off. That day, he got reports of people getting wet all over the island when random rain storms appeared, which gave him a headache.

But Aslan was thankful for the Archerʼs help. He waited a few hours, but the boy didnʼt return, so he went to find his wife standing on a balcony overlooking the Silvershade Kingdomʼs capital.

He landed beside her, and her silver eyes turned toward him as she inquired in a curious voice. ʼʼWhat did you get him to do?ʼʼ

Aslan chuckled before revealing the details. ʼʼI promised him fatherʼs treasure if he helps with the crops.ʼʼ

When Tiamara heard his words, her eyes widened in shock. She quickly shook her head and scolded him. ʼʼWhy would you do such a thing? The boy could die if he ventured there!ʼʼ

He backed off when he saw his wifeʼs anger before explaining his reasoning. ʼʼThis white dragon is different. He wonʼt go rushing in there and will think logically. All Archer has to do is wait.ʼʼ

But as soon as he finished speaking, loud thuds were heard at the door, and a maid rushed in without being ordered.

Tiamara saw the look on the Dragon-kin womanʼs face and demanded. ʼʼValessia! Whatʼs wrong?ʼʼ

The maid looked nervous as she reported the news. ʼʼThe guest your Majesty was entertaining was spotted flying over Southwatch Fortress, and when the soldiers attempted to stop him, he ignored them and sped up.ʼʼ
