A Journey That Changed The World. - Chapter 979: Anti Magic

Chapter 979: Anti Magic

Archer smiled at the Novgorodian before using Blink to teleport in front of him. The soldier tried to react, but his tail struck and pierced his chest. Just after that, he cast Soul Eater with a cold efficiency, ripping the man’s soul from his body.

A glow radiated from Archer’s hand, which spooked the three women. Nyx innocently said, “What did husband just do, girls?”

“He ate the Novgorodian soul to get useful information,” Maeve answered while cleaning her sword.

Following that, he threw the body to the side and spoke in frustration, “The Alliance is working with the Swarm to try to beat us.”

He pointed at the body, “This was a trap to get me here, but my Anti-Magic already destroyed their barrier, and all we need to do now is deal with the Blocker. They also moved the spell into the Underrealm, where we must go.”‘

The three women agreed with a nod before they followed Archer to the center of the island, killing any enemies that tried to attack them. After traveling for an hour, they reached a large fortress that guarded the passage to the spell, blocking teleportation.

‘I will be able to use the Domain soon,’ he thought with a big smile as Draconian needed the monster army to win the upcoming world war.

Archer grinned when spotting this and decided to use Azur Cannon multiple times, causing chaos as the three waiting women charged in. After casting his spells, Ashoka and Maeve sprinted toward the fortress.

“These beauties are always ready to fight.’

He looked at Nyx, who summoned her wings with a smile before exploding forward and picking both women up so she could throw them onto the wall above. With swords ready, Maeve and Ashoka carved through the Blightborns, Ratlings, and Novgorodians, who fell in droves.

Following that, he rushed forward alongside Nyx, and they started fighting the Alliance and Swarm before tearing through all their soldiers and more powerful units. Maeve and Ashoka fought as a team while traveling to the southern side.

Their sword skills impressed Archer, who watched them easily fight the Novgorodians. Ashoka started battling a tall Blightborn, but the tiger woman kept out of range of its claws while cutting it up.

Archer and Nyx were using their Dragon’s Breath to take out a large group of enemies that tried to swarm the two women. It took the group of four half an hour to kill every enemy they could find before they needed to rest as the sun started to set.

He stood on the fortress wall, looking south, only to see a mountain pass covered in creepy fog that seeped down the sides. Archer knew some nightmarish monsters were there, but it didn’t bother him.

While the women looted the fortress, Archer enjoyed the beautiful wild landscape. Rolling grasslands met a forest before the mountains blocked the way south. That’s when he spotted a dot flying in their direction, causing an alarm in his mind.

Without thinking, Archer summoned his wings before soaring in its direction as he summoned his claws and spotted a Terravian who was a Demi-God like him. The two clashed mid-air, with him blocking the creature’s sword by grabbing the blade.

His tail struck out like it had a mind, but the Terravian blocked the attack, sending sparks flying. Following this, the two traded blows, with neither getting the better of the other as the force of the strikes radiated out shockwaves.

Archer was enjoying himself as he landed a slash across the being’s chest, sending it crashing into the ground below. He followed up with a Dragon’s Breath that slammed into the enemy. The violet flames were soon joined by Nyx’s chaotic ones, which helped burn the Terravain and allowed them to overwhelm it. Archer quickly grabbed hold of the enemy’s face and went to cast Soul Eater but was kicked.

Nyx swooped in and started slashing at the enemy, who battered her away like an insect, which angered Archer. He used Blink to get close and kicked the being in the face, sending him flying backward.

The Terravian crashed into a nearby hill, but Archer followed behind while casting Eldritch Blasts into the creature’s body, causing explosions to erupt. Thanks to his attacks, the enemy was weakened, allowing him to land a decisive blow that broke the being’s neck.

Archer watched the enemy Demi-God drop to the ground, but he quickly used Mana Manipulation to burn the corpse into the dust while he caught his breath. Shortly after that, Nyx joined him as she rubbed her head, “That thing hit me hard; I got a horrible headache now.”

He looked at the chaos dragon and cast Aurora Healing on her, which caused the older woman to smile as she shivered. “I love feeling your mana Arch; it’s so relaxing,’ she happily commented.

Afterward, they met with an alarmed Ashoka and Maeve, who were sleeping when the fight broke out. Archer explained everything that happened, shocking the duo, but soon enough, they continued south.

When they approached the Teleportation Blocker, Archer instantly felt the mana in the air change, which made him shiver as he said, “Stay close, ladies. Something feels weird.”

They all agreed and prepared for a fight when they got close to the Swarm’s hole from which it was coming. Archer peered over the edge and only saw darkness, causing him to think, ‘Me and Nyx will carry the others while we descend.’

Following that, Archer turned to the three women and informed them of the plan and their opinion, looking at Maeve with a smile. “What do you three think about me and Nyx flying down there while carrying you and Ashoka?”

Everyone agreed before preparing to descend. The air around the hole was thick with an eerie stillness. The only sound came from the faint rustling of wind across the grass, but even that seemed muted as if the world held its breath.

Archer stood at the edge, gazing into the void. Darkness swirled below, thick and oppressive, promising untold dangers. Maeve approached him, her eyes meeting his with a steady

resolve.

She was always ready for a fight, her sword already drawn and gleaming with the faint light of the setting sun. Archer glanced at her with a half-smile, “Ready for a ride?” he asked, his voice calm despite the ominous atmosphere.

Maeve raised an eyebrow, her lips curling into a playful smirk. “Always. Just make sure you don’t drop me.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Archer chuckled softly before wrapping his arms around her thick waist, pulling her close. Maeve stiffened momentarily before relaxing into his embrace, resting one hand on his

shoulder.

She was used to fighting on her own two feet, but she trusted him. Nyx, standing nearby, unfolded her wings as she approached Ashoka. The tiger-woman’s ears twitched, and she looked up at Nyx with excitement and nervousness.

“You ready, tiger?” Nyx asked with a teasing grin.

Ashoka nodded, her tail flicking behind her. “Ready as I’ll ever be.” She stepped forward, allowing Nyx to scoop her up with a surprising gentleness.

Archer could feel the shift in the air as they descended-the dense, suffocating aura of mana that filled the cavernous depths. The walls of the Swarm’s lair were jagged and wet with an unnatural sheen, and the echo of distant skittering noises reverberated through the hollow

space.

Maeve tightened her grip on him, her breath steady but her heart pounding against his chest. “I can’t see a thing down here,” she whispered.

“It’s just sharp stone walls with sharp ones jutting out,” Archer said with a smile. “Just be

ready to fight.”

She agreed with a determined nod as they got lower, and soon, a strange wave of mana rushed through the tunnel, making the group shiver. Nyx commented, “The Teleportation Blocker is

getting close,

Arch.”

When they finally reached the ground, Archer instantly knew where the device was and started leading the way there while preparing to fight, but nothing appeared, causing them to relax as they spotted the glowing green orb slightly.

‘Why does this feel weird? There’s no Terravians or Novgorodians around,’ he pondered while

glancing around.

“Will you use Anti Magic on that orc, darling?” Maeve questioned.

Archer nodded with a smile before approaching the Teleportation Blocker, and when getting closer, the strange feeling intensified, ‘Ignore it and get access to the Domain.”

The three women were behind him as he activated Anti-Magic, directing it toward the device. The moment his magic made contact, everything around them exploded.

Talila stood on the back deck of the DRN Archer’s Pride when a sudden instinct made her turn north. An earth-shattering explosion ripped through the air the next moment, making her heart sink. ‘Oh no!’ she thought, panic rising within her.

She composed herself before sprinting across the deck just as a heart-wrenching scream rang

out from their quarters. Talila sped up and shortly reached their room, where Ari was curled

up on the floor.

“The pain! How is husband enduring such torture if this is a fraction of it,’ the Elemental woman spoke with a whimper.

Talila rushed over to her and questioned in a worried voice, “Ari! What’s happened?”

The older woman didn’t answer immediately and muttered, “Archer protected the three by taking the brunt of the explosion. He wrapped his wings around them before the blast hit him. “Are they alive?” Meredith asked as she rushed into the room with a healer.

Talila looked at the blonde maid before answering, “Yes, Nyx, Maeve, and Ashoka are fine,

but Archer is badly injured.”
