A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 931: Demon Shark Emperor

Archer noticed the concern in Kassandraʼs eyes and responded with a reassuring smile. ”Honestly, having a Kraken daughter would be incredible. Sheʼd be just like you, Kass- beautiful, strong, and supportive.”

The black-haired Titanʼs face lit up with joy as she nestled closer to him, overwhelmed by happiness. Meanwhile, Lucrezia sat beside Archer and rested her head gently on his shoulder with a smile on her pretty face.

He put his arm around the blonde, declaring in a determined tone, ”I will become the strongest being on Thrylos so I can give you girls the best, and thatʼs a promise.”

The two hugged him even tighter just as Demetra sent him a message, [Husband, my older brother is and wants to fight you. Heʼs by the southern seawall]

When Archer heard this, he jumped up, saying, ”A Demon Shark Prince has come to fight me, which will be hilarious when he realizes Iʼm a Demi-God. Will you ladies like to join me and watch?”

Kassandra and Lucrezia narrowed their eyes before nodding in agreement. Afterward, the three exited the carriage, and as the afternoon sun beamed down on them, Archer scooped the Kraken girl into a process carry and summoned his wings before taking off without wasting time.

The Death Witch followed behind as they soared over the kingdom until reaching the seawall, where Archer heard Demetra arguing with someone. When they got closer, he grabbed Lucrezia before using Blink to reappear next to his shark woman.

When Demetra spotted him, she stopped arguing with a similar-looking young man with the same blue hair and yellow shark eyes as hers; she smiled before speaking, ”Husband, my brother Tristan wants to fight you.” ”Yes, lizard, letʼs battle and see if youʼre worthy of becoming my little sisterʼs husband. If not, you will die here, and I will take her back to the empire,” the Demon Shark Tristan commented with a smug grin.

Archer chuckled before asking with a knowing smile as his eyes glowed with excitement, ”Are you sure, fish? Iʼm sure you wonʼt like the outcome.”

After he spoke, the three women stepped back, causing Tristan to look confused by their actions. Archer scanned the newcomer before he launched an attack to see how strong Demetraʼs brother was. [Tristan Shadowborne] [Level: 550] [Rank: Supreme Mage] ʼOh, this will be easy,ʼ he mused before shooting forward and landing a punch on the manʼs jaw, which sent him flying into the sea with a loud crash.

After landing a decisive punch, Archer followed up with his next move, his gaze fixed on Tristan as the Shadowborne prince shifted into his formidable shark form. He transformed into his dragon form without hesitation, diving into the water as the young man lunged to bite him in half.

His tail lashed out with a powerful strike as the giant shark surged towards him, sending Tristan spiraling through the water until he crashed into underwater mountains, causing a mini earthquake.

In one swift motion, Archer cast Azur Cannon, a violet beam of concentrated energy. The beam cut through the water precisely, slamming into Tristan and eliciting a roar of pain from the Demon Shark prince.

Archer didnʼt give Demetraʼs brother a chance, as he used Blink to appear in front of him. He quickly transformed into his Shadow Prince form and melted into the underwater shadows, causing Tristen to grow confused until the Demon Shark was sliced along its flank, which made the man scream in pain. ʼNow, letʼs see if you give up after this,ʼ he mused before slashing at Tristanʼs body, causing blood to pour into the water and attracting many monsters that were lingering in the shadows.

He noticed the Demon Shark was trying to flee by returning to his humanoid form and dashing into a nearby Deep Trench, but Archer caught the man and threw him toward the three girls. Following that, he turned to the creatures hiding.

Archer let out an earth-shattering roar, causing boulders to break into pieces as the monsters fled into the darkness. Once they were gone, he joined the girls on a nearby beach as they stood around Tristan, who was dying due to his body nearly being sliced in half. ”If you take me to your Father, I will heal you back to normal,” Archer suggested.

Tristanʼs eyes narrowed, but he nodded due to the searing pain, allowing Archer to cast Aurora Healing on him until he was healed. After that, the young man got to his feet while looking embarrassed. ”Iʼm Archer Wyldheart, fiance of Demetra and king of Draconia,” he introduced himself. ”Weʼre also here, husband,” Lucrezia said with a smile.

Tristanʼs eyes widened in surprise as he saw Lucrezia and Kassandra. ”Why are you allied with a mosasaur and a kraken?” he demanded, his voice laced with disbelief.

Archerʼs lips curled into a confident smile. ”Allow me to introduce you. This is Lucrezia and Kassandra Wyldheart, queens of Draconia.”

Both women smiled proudly at the introduction. Tristanʼs skepticism didnʼt waver. Turning to Demetra, he asked, ”Youʼve allied yourself with someone much younger and aligned with the enemy?”

Demetraʼs smile didnʼt falter as she waved off his concern dismissively. ”Archerʼs strength speaks for itself. Heʼs more than capable of holding his own, even against Father. Youʼd do well to respect him,” she said, her pride evident in her voice.

Tristan nodded before diving into the sea and transforming into his Demon Shark form. Archer glanced at Kassandra, Lucrezia, and Demetra, ”Do you want to join me?”

The Kraken girl shook her head, ”I better not, Arch; the Shadowborne Empire is dangerous for other Titans,” she explained.

Archer frowned before replying, ”I will wipe out every Demon Shark except Demetra if they try to hurt you, Kass.

Kassandra beamed, ”Meet the Shadowborne Emperor; I heard heʼs a man of many connections to the Underrealm and other places,ʼ she informed him with a smile.

He smiled before cuddling the Kraken girl and kissing her before moving on to Lucrezia, who spoke, ”I will stay here to defend the islands, my love.” ”Thank you. Once Iʼm back, we three are going on a date,” Archer said with a smile.

This charmed Kassandra and Lucrezia, but they soon returned his affection before jumping up to the sea wall. Demetra jumped into the water while transforming into her normal form, allowing him to jump on her back.

Archer leaned against her dorsal fin, and she cast the usual spell over him before diving and following Tristan. The three swam through the deep sea as the local monsters avoided the two Demon Sharks.

While traveling, Archer messaged the girls and informed them of his plans. They all told him to be careful, except Mary stopped Demetra from swimming because she said she wanted to join them.

The two waited for the Primordial; reaching them took her a few minutes. Mary dived into the water and joined Archer on Demetraʼs back, smiling as she started following Tristan again. ”Hello, husband. Sorry for getting involved, but the Demon Shark Emperor is dangerous, and

I wanted to be there with you,”

Archerʼs smile softened as he looked at her. ”Thanks, Mary. Itʼs great to see you.”

Her smile deepened, and without a word, she leaned in and kissed him tenderly. The kiss was warm and full of unspoken affection. Afterward, they settled into a comfortable silence, enjoying the view as the landscape sped by.

It took the group half a day to arrive at the borders of the Shadowborne Empire, marked by massive monster skulls. Archer noticed a dozen smaller Demon Sharks patrolling the area. They were completely black, which allowed them to camouflage. ʼDem, are these your empireʼs soldiers?ʼ he sent a message to Demetra. ʼYes darling,ʼ she replied with a nervous tone. ʼBe careful and do not leave my back, or they will attack you.ʼ

Archer smiled before watching the Demon Sharks surround them, but two roars echoed from Demetra and Tristan, which scared them away. He watched this and laughed as they scattered in all directions.

Soon enough, the shark woman commented in a wary voice, ”Weʼre getting close to the entrance of the capital, Neptura City.”

Following that, Demetra dived into the darkness as Mary commented, ”I havenʼt been to Neptura City in decades. They may have improved it since then.” ”Was it bad?” Archer responded.

Mary nodded, ”Yes. Death was common, and hundreds died a week, but thatʼs when the current emperor was a young shark and didnʼt know what he was doing,” she explained. ”Will they try to target me while traveling?” Archer said

The grey-haired man was about to speak, but Demetra replied, ”No. The other sharks and monsters wonʼt attack if youʼre with Tristan or me.”

Archer thanked Demetra for her guidance and soon noticed a distant glow on the chasm walls. As they swam closer, the light revealed itself to be reflected off the crystal-encrusted ground. After another ten minutes of navigating the deep, the true spectacle emerged-a colossal dome encasing the city, designed to shield it from the relentless deep-sea currents. As they approached, Archerʼs eyes widened in awe.

Before him stretched a sprawling metropolis, its countless buildings extending far beyond the horizon. It was an astonishing sight-an intricate cityscape that rivaled those on the surface but set in the profound depths of the ocean.
