Archer recruited the shadow-like Netherbeasts and was pleased with the new additions. He returned to Llyniel who was waiting with a worried look on her face.
But when he appeared she smiled and launched herself at him. The little wood elf hugged him like a baby monkey.
Her actions caused him to laugh as she looked up at him. Archer stared at her once he's stopped laughing causing her cheeks to go bright red.
Before she could slip away, he leaned in, initiating a kiss. Their lips met in a soft and tender union, reminiscent of the delicate flutter of a butterfly's wings.
It was a kiss filled with the unspoken emotions that had blossomed between them over their time in this realm.
Friendship, trust, and a love that had grown deeper than the roots of the ancient trees surrounding them since they'd been trapped.
As their kiss deepened, time seemed to stand still. The world around them faded into obscurity, leaving only the two of them and the profound connection they shared.
When they finally parted, their foreheads rested against each other, and they exchanged soft smiles.
Archer cradled Llyniel's face in his hands, his thumbs gently caressing her cheeks. His violet eyes filled with warmth as he reached out and gently brushed a strand of brown hair away.
She gazed up at him, her brown eyes reflecting the shimmering moonlight as a small smile was on her face.
"I've been wanting to do this for a long time," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.
Llyniel's heart skipped a beat as she tip-toed her lips drawing closer to his. "So have I."
Suddenly, she leaned in, taking the initiative, and kissed him this time around. In their secluded garden, they shared a passionate and intense kiss.
Their hearts and desires intertwine in that cherished space. After a few minutes, they separated and stared at each other again until Llyniel's face turned even redder.
She wouldn't look at him as she got out of his arms and rushed off to the cabin causing him to laugh.
He followed behind her and entered. When he walked in he made his way over to a sofa and sat down.
Archer pulled out some bread and started eating as he relaxed. While he was doing that he checked his status.

[Sp: 0>2]
[Dragon Aura Learned]
[Nature Magic Learned]
When he saw that he learned a new magic element. He looked at the little wood elf and concluded that it was the kiss.
He shook his head as he pulled his Magic Elements.
[Magic: Fire- Water- Earth- Wind- Lightning- Space- Darkness- Light- Void- Thunder- Spirit- Aquarian- Infernomancy- Celestial- Frost- Arcane- Sun- Moon- Soul- Nature]
Archer was surprised as he doesn't check this often and saw all the new elements he learned since he was thirteen.
That's when he thought to himself. 'This is over the top now. Am I broken?'
He started laughing to himself and soon fell asleep as he got even more comfortable. After an hour Llyniel poked her head in and saw him sleeping.
When she saw this she made her way over to him and climbed on top of him. Llyniel started cuddling him and fell asleep herself.
Archer grabbed her and started hugging her as he felt relaxed. The two of them slept until morning when they heard a loud roar coming from the grasslands below.
He opened his eyes and saw Llyniel snuggled up to him which caused a big grin to appear on his face.
But he moved her to the side as he got up and made his way outside. He summoned his wings and quickly took off.
Archer flew toward the roaring and saw dinosaur-looking creatures gathering in the forest at the bottom of his mountain.
He wondered what they were up to and thought to himself. 'Haven't they learned yet? There must be some Nightfolk left who are provoking them.''
When he got closer he scanned the closest dinosaur.
[Drakonosaurus]
[Rank D]
Archer continued scanning the other ones.
[Destraceros]
[Rank A]
[Basilithorn]
[Rank C]
[Eldertalon]
[Rank C]
[Dracolox]
[Rank S]
The horde was much bigger than he thought and was led by a gargantuan wingless lizard that bore a striking resemblance to a dragon.
Its scales shimmering like molten bronze moved with a regal grace. Its enormous head, crowned with twisted horns, loomed above the forest canopy.
Fiery eyes, the color of molten gold, fixed upon Archer, exuding an air of both ancient wisdom and fierce dominance.
The creatures trailing behind their draconic leader were equally awe-inspiring. Towering over the tallest trees, they sported armored hides adorned with bony plates and serrated spines.
Each step they took sent tremors through the earth, and their primal roars echoed through the forest.
Archer knew he was an intruder in their world, and his heart raced with a mix of excitement and wonder.
The dragon-like leader drew near, its unyielding gaze fixed squarely on him. A tense silence descended, interrupted solely by the constant roaring.
Then, with a nod of its colossal head, the majestic creature signaled for the horde to part. As the massive dinosaurs flowed around him like a river around a stone.
Something inside him ignited when he saw this thing and wondered what it was but it was telling him to fight like he held some long-held grudge against it.
Archer decided to scan the large lizard before doing anything.
[Fire Wyrm]
[Rank SS+]
Archer's eyes widened and a big smile appeared on his face which shocked the Fire Wyrm. As he hovered above the mountain he whispered to himself. ''Draco.''
He transformed into his massive dragon form which came crashing to the ground as the bright light blinded everything.
Archer let out an earth-shattering roar that forced all the dinosaur-looking creatures to back up and leave the Fire Wyrm behind.
The creature jumped backward but kept his gold eyes on Archer. That was when a violet burst of fire slammed into it.
His swift assault took the creature by surprise. However, the true intent behind Archer's attack became evident as he charged forward.
In a thunderous collision, he smashed into the Fire Wyrm. The force of the impact rippled through the forest, and the very atmosphere seemed to crackle with unleashed energy.
The two colossal beings entwined in a furious dance of fire and scale, their claws slashing and teeth gnashing as they fought for supremacy.
His tail lashed out like a whip, striking the Fire Wyrm's side with a resounding crack.
The creature howled in pain, but it retaliated with a searing blast of flames that singed Archer's scales.
Undeterred, he lunged forward, sinking his razor-sharp teeth into the Wyrm's neck, and started tugging his head trying to rip its flesh off.
The battle raged on relentlessly, a titanic clash between colossal foes. The once-peaceful dead forest that enveloped them now lay engulfed in merciless flames.
Yet Archer's determination to protect Llyniel and his mountain only fueled his excitement as he fought on.
With every swipe of his claws and each powerful snap of his teeth, he chipped away at the Wyrm's scaly armor.
Following his merciless attacks, he lunged forward, sinking his razor-sharp teeth into the creature's side.
The Fire Wyrm retaliated with a deafening roar of its own, striking Archer with a punishing barrage of claw swipes.
Archer took the attacks head-on and continued to fight. Hours passed and Both combatants bore the scars of their brutal encounter, their scales marred and smoldering.
They clashed again and again, claws slashing, jaws snapping, and tails whipping through the air.
The forest bore witness to the titanic struggle, as trees toppled and the very ground trembled beneath the weight of their battle.
Archer's rage burned with each painful wound he bore, his resolve only deepened. He fought not only for the safety of Llyniel but so he could claim this creature's army.
The Fire Wyrm, too, showed no sign of backing down. Its attacks and searing fury were matched only by the relentless onslaught of Archer's own aggression.
With each brutal exchange, the forest blazed brighter, casting long shadows of their tumultuous battle.
As the battle raged on, it became clear that neither of them would yield. Their injuries were a testament to the ferocity of their clash.
After an epic battle that seemed to stretch through an eternity, Archer finally managed to gain the upper hand over the Fire Wyrm.
Both were battered and scorched, their once-majestic forms marred by the relentless violence they had inflicted upon each other.
With one final display of strength, he lunged forward, his colossal jaws clamping down on the Wyrm's neck.
A torrent of searing flames erupted from the defeated creature's mouth that tried to bathe him in it, but Archer's sheer will proved insurmountable and he ignored the pain.
With a deafening crunch, he silenced the Fire Wyrm's assault. The forest, once ablaze with chaos, fell into an eerie silence as he stood victorious on the subdued beast's body.
His stained white scales shimmered as the very ground seemed to tremble beneath him.
Raising his head high, Archer let out a mighty roar that echoed through the forest, a declaration of his victory.
