chapter 1151: unlimited food

archer waited for the umbraworm queen to accept his terms, which she did shortly after that, which made him smile as he spoke. "stay here and i'll be right back. i have to make your home."
the monster nodded in agreement before he teleported into an empty part of the domain and quickly expanded it to twice its size. then, he started creating an underground world connected to the surface by a chasm.
tunnels spread out in all directions, allowing them to hunt monsters for food and whatever they needed. ten minutes later, archer was done and opened a portal to the umbraworm nest.
he stepped through before speaking to the queen. "i finished the new home for you. go pick a place and there's unlimited food for your children."
when the monster heard this, it let out a loud hiss that caused the ground, walls, and even ceiling to convulse as more worms appeared. archer watched as they surged toward the portal.
without waiting for the monster to get close, he took to the air and started hovering in place as he watched the umbraworms enter. this took hours, as billions of them poured out of nowhere and entered the portal.
but shortly after that, archer grinned when realizing what he could do with this information, causing him to think, 'a new food source for the domain's denizens. these worms will help the monsters grow.'
following that, he sensed a wave of creatures heading in his direction from a small tunnel and billions more poured out. archer was utterly shocked, causing him to look at the umbraworm queen. "how many of you are there? my domain won't be able to handle this much."
'many more, master,' she answered while organizing the horde of monsters.
when archer heard this, he vanished into the domain before pouring mana into the realm, and the worm's underground world started increasing its size until completely ran out of
mana.
his body felt heavy, drained by the immense exertion, but archer pushed through, shaking his head as he snapped back to the real world. as he did, the umbraworms poured into the portal, their dark forms flooding the space.
an hour later, the once massive chamber lay empty. yet the domain now had an unlimited food supply for all his monsters. following that, archer started flying through the tunnels and noticed the rest of the creatures.
when he saw this, he summoned thousands of stone men and ordered them to capture every monster that could find. minutes later, chaos erupted as the giant constructs started grabbing anything they could find.
while this happened, archer created a massive swamp surrounding the umbraworm chasm home for the new creatures he was collecting. once he was done, the stone men started throwing all kinds of monsters into the portals that opened.
worms, insects, and eerie humanoid creatures writhed and screamed as they were dragged away, helplessly kicking and struggling in their kidnapping. archer watched with a smirk, finding the chaos amusing.
everyone started laughing as demetra commented, "well you best chain him up in the palace dungeon. he wanders away all the time and we have to send him a message."
when archer heard this, his eyebrow rose while replying to the shark woman with an amused expression, "you're talking like i'm not here but yes, you're right."
the women giggled even more, their laughter filling the air, before he turned to alexa with a sheepish grin and explained, "i have a habit of wandering off and getting into trouble. now and then, brooke, ari, luce, or mary have to come to my rescue when i end up tangling with a stronger titan or primordial monster."
alexa's eyes widened in shock as she replied, "stop risking yourself, arch, you're a dragon! what could beat you?"
archer smiled when hearing the care in her voice but quickly spoke, "the nameless things or primordials. they are a pain in the ass and ambush me from the shadows, which causes ari to appear to beat it up every time, or the time when mary dragged me out of the underrealm when i was poisoned by a scorpion titan."
when everyone heard this, their eyes widened as nyx questioned, "why do you always get
into trouble, darling?"
he shrugged before laughing. "i don't know. i'm always exploring the underrealm and fighting titan, which is fun."
alexa shook her head with a loving smile. "i can see the old you, babe. you're trying to hide it,
but he's still there."
when archer heard that, his body tensed as emotions surged within him, but he quickly shook his head to steady himself. rising to his feet, he spoke firmly, "i'm going to capture more
monsters before heading over to check on the fortress."
without another word, he summoned his wings and took to the sky, leaving the seven women confused. alexa looked shocked, but talila frowned as she explained, "that's how he goes every time someone brings up his past. he shuts down and goes exploring to block out the
memories."
alexa frowned as she replied as the stars lit up the surroundings, "i heard it was bad, but he never went into detail about it."
a low growl echoed across the ledge where the cabin stood, drawing everyone's attention to nala. her tail stood rigid, a clear sign of her rising anger, before she erupted in fury. "they practically tortured him!" she snarled. "the scars may be gone now, but i remember back at the college of magic, you could see them. and then there were the vile rumors they spread
about him!"
