A Journey That Changed The World.

Archer was staring into the distance wondering why there were grasslands here.

As he was thinking Tiefel walked up behind him.

''Little guy, why do you have that look on your face?''

He turned to face her.

''Why are there grasslands in the middle of a mountain pass, I don't get it.''

Tiefel started to laugh as she covered her mouth.

Archer looked up at the woman with blonde hair and amber eyes, he noticed she was quite tall for an elf.

''What's so funny?''

She stopped laughing as she answered.

''Well this mountain range is called The Giant Mountains, historians say the giants once had a city here, they had magic that could revitalize the soil and allow crops to be grown.''

Archer nodded his head with a smile.

The camp was set up, but the only issue is there were no trees for him to sleep in, as he was looking around he pulled out a meat wrap and started eating.

Sarah approached him.

''Archer I have a tent set up for you, follow me.''

When Archer followed her, he saw a small tent set up not far from the green tents of the guild staff, he thanked Sarah as he entered the tent.

He pulled out a honey brew and started drinking it.

It tasted really sweet and gave him a nice warm feeling that spread throughout his body.

Sitting down on the bedroll he started eating the 10 hearts he looted.

Once finished eating he checked his status.

'Status.'

[Experience: 1300>3000]

[SP: 2>12]

He saved the points and got comfortable on the bedroll, falling into a deep sleep and having another horrible nightmare.

In the nightmare, Archer desperately clung to Ella's hand, trying to hold on tight as she pulled away from him.

Her face was twisted in pain and sorrow, and her eyes told a story of heartbreak and loss.

Archer could feel his own heart breaking into a million pieces as he watched her slip away.

He tried to scream out her name, to convince her to stay, but no sound came from his lips, and she kept moving further and further away.

She was disappearing from his sight, and Archer knew that he was losing her forever.

He ran after her, blindly pursuing her, but she was always just out of reach.

Her voice echoed through the darkness, telling him that she had to go, that they couldn't be together.

It was worse than any physical pain he had ever experienced, like something was tearing him apart from the inside out.

Finally, he collapsed on the ground, helpless and alone, as Ella disappeared into nothingness.

He was left with a deep feeling of loss and despair as if the world had become a little bit darker and colder without her in it.

The nightmare was a cruel twist of fate, reminding him of how fragile happiness could be, and how easily everything he loved could be taken away.

He woke up in a panic, looking around.

Remembering Sarah gave him a tent to sleep in, he heard talking and laughing as he got up, he cast cleanse on himself and changed into a new set of clothes.

He tidied up his messy hair while stepping out of the tent he saw Tiefel, Barador, and Isaiah sitting around a campfire while cooking, Jaen was nowhere to be found.

Tiefel noticed him and called him over.

''Little guy come over here and have some breakfast!''

He walked towards them and took a seat, as he did Barador flicked his horns causing a jarring feeling to run throughout his body.

Archer slapped his hand away, Barardor laughed as he rubbed It, feeling a slight sting.

He complimented the boy.

''Wow, little man you're quite strong, especially since you're so little.''

They all started laughing, Archer let out a small chuckle as Tiefel handed him a bowl.

Looking in he saw a soup-looking food and bits of meat.

He took the spoon and started eating.

The meat tasted like pork the soup was spicy, it was really nice, he pulled out a fizzle fig and drank it.

The drink tasted fruity, he noticed that everyone was staring at him with wide eyes, when he noticed them he asked what was wrong.

''What's wrong?''

Isaiah spoke before anyone else could.

''How much stuff do you have in your storage, for the last month we have seen you pull out all sorts of shit, now fess up.''

Archer looked at him while he finished his soup, he put down the bowl while pulling out some chocolate and started eating.

''Food and drinks.''

Everyone looked at him like he was an idiot.

Tiefel spoke up.

''He means what kind of food do you have.''

''Chocolate, sweets, pasties, and other goodies, oh and I bought 100 drinks from a stall.''

Everyone's eyes opened wide as they heard him speak.

Barador looked at him.

''Why do you have so much food?''

Now it was Archer's turn to stare at the man like he was an idiot.

''Don't look at me like that boy!''

Tiefel laughed at her husband seeing him get flustered.

Archer just stared at the elf while eating chocolate.

''Because I like food, and knew I'd be away for a while so I bought extra.''

They all nodded while finishing their food, Archer watched the guards pack up the camp.

A couple of hours later they exited the Giant Mountain and entered vast grasslands with a raging river running through it, but the whole caravan can see black smoke in the distance.

Elric stopped the caravan and started talking.

''Be alert and keep an eye out, the noble faction is pushing the royal faction into a desperate situation, only the goddess knows what they will do, be careful everyone.''

He motioned for everyone to continue, Karna city wasn't far from the border so it wouldn't take long to get there.

A few hours later a city could be seen in the distance, thick black smoke could be seen blotting out the sun.

The caravan crossed a wooden bridge and got really close to the city, the bridge was half a mile away.

More and more beasts appeared everyone could see an army battling with goblins, orcs, and trolls in front of the city.

Archer rushed to the front summoning his two swords and started killing the goblins he was coming across, he even saw orcs and trolls in the distance.

He heard a caravan guard call it a beast wave, from the memories he can piece together, it happens when dungeons become full and the beasts start pouring out.

They ravage lands and slaughter the people, other beasts try to break off, escaping to other parts of the kingdom.

The caravan guards all charged toward the beasts along with the adventurers.

At this point, Archer was spamming fire missiles and slashing beasts down left and right.

Taking a deep breath, his hand clenching tightly around the hilt of his cosmic sword. He had fought beasts before, but this was different.

The goblins, orcs, and trolls had joined forces to take down a human city, and he knew that stopping them would require every ounce of his strength and skill.

As the two armies collided, he swung his sword, cutting down goblins with ease.

Feeling the power coursing through the blade, crackling with electricity and charged with cosmic energy.

As he fought, he also was casting spells that brought chaos to the ranks of the enemy.

With each strike, Archer grew stronger, slaying orcs with a flick of his wrist and summoning bolts of lightning that burned bright against the dark sky.

The goblins, orcs, and trolls fought fiercely, but they were no match for the strength and willpower of Archer or the people fighting behind him.

The battle raged on for what seemed like hours, with the fire of combat never ceasing.

As he battled on, his stamina began to falter, but he refused to quit.

Casting body enhancement, he felt a surge of power inside him, his violet eyes shone brighter than ever before.

An energy flow he has never felt surged through him as he felt his body enhancement evolve into something different.

[Body enhancement > Cosmic Enhancement]

[The cosmos smiles upon you child, Mana has blessed you, and now the cosmos deems you worthy of such a blessing, go forth and change the world, we will be watching]

Reading the notification that popped up in front of him, not knowing how.

Seeing he got a new skill he activated it and something in him changed, a new power surged through his whole body.

That's when he heard the bad news being shouted out.

''More beasts are coming, retreat!''

The adventurers started to pull back but archer stepped forward and started killing beasts.

With every kill, Archer's body grew stronger.

The cosmic power that had surged through him at the start now filled him completely, and he was almost invincible.

The orcs, goblins, and trolls fought desperately to stop him, but he was too quick and too powerful.
