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 Maeve’s 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 wasn’t muscular. She was staring at him with something like interest, which fascinated him.

‘This woman should hate me, but her gaze has no malice.’ Archer thought to himself.

He shook his head and turned his attention to Maeve’s fiance, who was staring at him with an innocent smile, causing him to think. ‘Are they marrying her to an idiot? She deserves better.’

While Archer was thinking, Maeve’s father demanded while taking a step forward. ”How dare you touch my daughter, boy! She is the third princess of the Avaloch Kingdom! Do you know it’s a death sentence for such crimes?”

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 Archer’s explosive reaction. However, their unease deepened when all he offered in response was a smile.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm Archer ignored the king’s question and introduced himself to Maeve’s fiance with an insincere smile. ”I’m Archer Wyldheart. The white demon of the Southlands, the Scourge of the Church Of Light, and the Doom of the World. Who are you?”

The young man seemed taken aback but answered. ”Seamus Albion. Second Prince of the Albion Kingdom and Maeve’s fiance.”

When Cian heard this, He thought, watching the interaction unfold. ‘Stop mentioning that you’re her fiance, idiot! Can’t you see he’s getting angrier.’

”And where is this kingdom?” 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 couldn’t. Seamus answered without realizing he was dooming his homeland in the distant future. ”It’s North East of the Avaloch Kindom.”

When Cian, Caoimhe, and Siobhan heard this, they sighed as their sister’s fiance just shot himself in the foot. Archer chuckled as he thanked the boy for the information. ”That’s very good. I heard the east is very nice during Frostwinter. Don’t tempt me into visiting.”

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. ”I see you’re friends with Cian and Maeve. How about you two visit us after we settle in the Albion Kingdom?”

Archer’s 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, “He’ll 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.

Maeve’s 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 couldn’t 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 didn’t have a problem bragging. ”So, my new friend. How wealthy is your kingdom? I heard it’s just a petty realm selling livestock to survive.”

When asking this, Maeve’s father snapped, his voice accusing. “Enough of your games, dragon!”

”Oh, aren’t you touchy. I was getting to know my new friend here as I don’t have many my age.” Archer looked at Seamus with the friendliest smile he couldn’t muster, ”Ain’t that right?”

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

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

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. ”The gods can turn water into wine, but I can turn your mother into mine.”

When hearing this, Ronan’s 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. ”See you soon, Father-in-law. Make sure to keep an eye out for me.”

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

”Why not all three and their mother?” 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. ”What is your name?”

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

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

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 didn’t know what was happening but spoke as he followed the queen. ”I wish you luck in the tournament, Archer. It was nice meeting you.”

The young man walked off while he grinned and mumbled. ”I’m sure you won’t be saying that when I steal Maeve.”

”You are evil, Arch. Can’t believe you got my mother all flustered like a young girl.” Cian’s voice rang out from behind him.

Archer chuckled before asking. ”The human wasn’t as you described. He seemed like a meek child.”

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

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

“It’s not that. You hate Seamus because he’s marrying Maeve. Since you already see her as yours, you’re subconsciously projecting your aura onto him, making it feel like a formidable beast is glaring at him.”

He nodded in understanding. ”So why don’t any of you feel like this?”

”Because we’re friends, Arch, and no threat to you. Being a dragon, your instincts will tell you when someone has bad intentions toward you.” Cian answered.

But Archer wasn’t 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. ”I’ll be going against my Father, so show me what a life with you will be like, my dragon.”
