A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 653 The Gods Can Turn Water Into Wine

Archer watched as the man tried to talk to Maeve with a smile, but she replied politely while looking uninterested. He turned his attention to her fiance, who had bushy brown hair and blue eyes. He was big but looked like a dimwit, which confused him.

He approached Maeve, slipped his arm around her waist, and pulled her closer, causing the three people to give him death glares. Archer noticed a man who stood at seven feet looking down at him with anger growing in his grey eyes.

Guessing this man was the King of Avaloch and Maeveʼs father, Archer knew his hatred toward him would only grow, and, in the future, it would lead to a blood feud. He soon realized he would never accept their union, a thought that greatly amused him.

After looking at the man, Archer turned his attention to the woman who looked like an older version of Maeve, only with green eyes, bigger boobs, and wasnʼt muscular. She was staring at him with something like interest, which fascinated him.

ʼThis woman should hate me, but her gaze has no malice.ʼ Archer thought to himself.

He shook his head and turned his attention to Maeveʼs fiance, who was staring at him with an innocent smile, causing him to think. ʼAre they marrying her to an idiot? She deserves better.ʼ

While Archer was thinking, Maeveʼs father demanded while taking a step forward. ʼʼHow dare you touch my daughter, boy! She is the third princess of the Avaloch Kingdom! Do you know itʼs a death sentence for such crimes?ʼʼ

As the king waffled on, Cian, Maeve, and their elder sisters arrived just in time to hear his words. Their faces paled with apprehension, anticipating Archerʼs explosive reaction. However, their unease deepened when all he offered in response was a smile.

Archer ignored the kingʼs question and introduced himself to Maeveʼs fiance with an insincere smile. ʼʼIʼm Archer Wyldheart. The white demon of the Southlands, the Scourge of the Church Of Light, and the Doom of the World. Who are you?ʼʼ

The young man seemed taken aback but answered. ʼʼSeamus Albion. Second Prince of the Albion Kingdom and Maeveʼs fiance.ʼʼ

When Cian heard this, He thought, watching the interaction unfold. ʼStop mentioning that youʼre her fiance, idiot! Canʼt you see heʼs getting angrier.ʼ

ʼʼAnd where is this kingdom?ʼʼ Archer replied with an even bigger grin, hiding a boiling anger fueled by jealousy.

While he was trying to control himself, Maeve tried to escape his clutches but couldnʼt. Seamus answered without realizing he was dooming his homeland in the distant future. ʼʼItʼs North East of the Avaloch Kindom.ʼʼ

When Cian, Caoimhe, and Siobhan heard this, they sighed as their sisterʼs fiance just shot himself in the foot. Archer chuckled as he thanked the boy for the information. ʼʼThatʼs very good. I heard the east is very nice during Frostwinter. Donʼt tempt me into visiting.ʼʼ

Maeve and Cian trembled upon hearing those words, fully aware of their implications. Unaware, Seamus continued to prattle on, releasing the squirming girl as he spoke.

When Maeve was free, she watched him with narrowed eyes as Seamus answered with an innocent smile. ʼʼI see youʼre friends with Cian and Maeve. How about you two visit us after we settle in the Albion Kingdom?ʼʼ

Archerʼs smile turned darker, but Seamus was oblivious to it all as he assumed he had made a new friend. It was a chilling transformation that sent shivers down the spines of those familiar with his true nature.

The siblings exchanged worried glances, dreading what shenanigans he might unleash. Yet, they remained silent, watching as he posed seemingly innocuous questions they knew harbored ulterior motives.

Cian leaned over and whispered to Maeve, ”Heʼll kidnap you at your wedding, sis. Is this truly what you want?”

She turned to her older brother and gave him a nod before returning her attention to Archer as he conversed with her fiancé, who was clueless about the doom that would fall upon his kingdom.

Maeveʼs parents watched with astonishment as this seemingly friendly front Archer put up masked the true menace they believed him to be. Despite his charming behavior, the older couple couldnʼt shake the unease.

They braced themselves, especially when they noticed the obsessive gleam in his eyes whenever he looked at Maeve, heightening their unease. Anticipating that he was plotting something sinister, the couple heard the rumors.

Archer posed a question that made the people shiver, but Seamus didnʼt have a problem bragging. ʼʼSo, my new friend. How wealthy is your kingdom? I heard itʼs just a petty realm selling livestock to survive.ʼʼ

When asking this, Maeveʼs father snapped, his voice accusing. ”Enough of your games, dragon!”

ʼʼOh, arenʼt you touchy. I was getting to know my new friend here as I donʼt have many my age.ʼʼ Archer looked at Seamus with the friendliest smile he couldnʼt muster, ʼʼAinʼt that right?ʼʼ

The young man thought Archer was friendly and spoke up to defend him. ʼʼYes Father-in-law. I see no dishonesty in him, and grandmother told me dragons are truthful beings.ʼʼ

Archer nodded like a chicken, causing Maeveʼs Father to get even angrier, but he made it even worse by speaking to the king with a grin. ʼʼI am very honest, Ronan Avaloch. I shall give you a quote to remember me by.ʼʼ

He walked over to the man, who was staring at him with eyes full of rage and hatred, causing Archer to chuckle before speaking with a cocky grin. ʼʼThe gods can turn water into wine, but I can turn your mother into mine.”

When hearing this, Ronanʼs face turned several colors, and he was about to attack Archer, who was openly mocking him in front of his family. But stopped himself as he noticed Ophelia Blackfire standing close by and a large group of girls staring at him like he was scum.

A few of them took out weapons, causing Ronan to rethink his next actions before leaving the arena. While walking away, Archer spoke to him with a smirk. ʼʼSee you soon, Father-in-law. Make sure to keep an eye out for me.ʼʼ

Seamus looked at him and asked in a curious voice. ʼʼWhich sister will you be marrying, Archer? Both are lovely.ʼʼ

ʼʼWhy not all three and their mother?ʼʼ Archer replied while looking at the older woman, who stared at him amusedly.

He looked into her beautiful green eyes and asked with a charming smile. ʼʼWhat is your name?ʼʼ

The womanʼs eyebrows raised before inquiring in a heavy accent that reminded him of how Celts sounded on the history documentaries back on Earth. ʼʼNaomh Avaloch. I must ask, why did you provoke my husband if you want to marry his daughters or me as you said?ʼʼ

A smirk appeared on her beautiful face when she finished speaking as she enjoyed Archerʼs attention. He shook his head while responding. ʼʼI like teasing people. Especially old men who think they are powerful but are nothing but an ant to me.ʼʼ

After responding to her inquiry, he leaned close to her ear, his tone dripping with seduction. ”While Maeve is mine already, upon seeing you, I find myself desiring you as well, my warrior queen.”

He leaned back with a smirk, leaving Naomh flustered and red-

faced before she turned around and walked over to the other woman. Seamus didnʼt know what was happening but spoke as he followed the queen. ʼʼI wish you luck in the tournament, Archer. It was nice meeting you.ʼʼ

The young man walked off while he grinned and mumbled. ʼʼIʼm sure you wonʼt be saying that when I steal Maeve.ʼʼ

ʼʼYou are evil, Arch. Canʼt believe you got my mother all flustered like a young girl.ʼʼ Cianʼs voice rang out from behind him.

Archer chuckled before asking. ʼʼThe human wasnʼt as you described. He seemed like a meek child.ʼʼ

This time, Cian laughed as he explained. ʼʼDo you know how much willpower someone has to be around you for long, my friend?ʼʼ

ʼʼWhat are you talking about? None of my girls have this issue.ʼʼ Archer replied in a doubt-filled tone, which caused Cian to laugh.

”Itʼs not that. You hate Seamus because heʼs marrying Maeve. Since you already see her as yours, youʼre subconsciously projecting your aura onto him, making it feel like a formidable beast is glaring at him.”

He nodded in understanding. ʼʼSo why donʼt any of you feel like this?ʼʼ

ʼʼBecause weʼre friends, Arch, and no threat to you. Being a dragon, your instincts will tell you when someone has bad intentions toward you.ʼʼ Cian answered.

But Archer wasnʼt listening as he watched Seamus try to kiss Maeve goodbye, but she expertly dodged him, which forced the young man to leave disappointed. Once he left, the orange-

haired girl approached him with a big smile.

This uplifted his mood, but her next words drove him mad. Maeve stopped next to him and whispered so that only they could hear. ʼʼIʼll be going against my Father, so show me what a life with you will be like, my dragon.ʼʼ
