A Journey That Changed The World.

After defeating the three girls in their mock battle, Archer rushed to check on Teuila. Finding her lying on her back beneath a nearby tree, her blue hair fanned out around her, he approached cautiously.

She remained still, her arm shielding her eyes from the bright sun above. Kneeling beside her, he gently rested his hand on her thigh before casting Aurora Healing on her, causing a violet light to wash over her.

Teuila shivered at the touch, her fatigue evident due to the fight. 'I'm glad she's okay,' he thought while tending to her. 'I didn't mean to hit her so hard.'

Despite her weariness, she managed a tired but genuine compliment, ''That attack was brilliant, Arch.''

Archer smiled before hugging the blue-haired girl after he helped her to her feet, ''Thank you, Teu,'' he replied. ''Are you okay?''

''Yes, darling,'' Teuila said while sinking into his embrace with a dazzling smile. ''I must rest for a while before heading to the capital. Now, let's check on the other two.''

He nodded before they approached the elf and lion girl sitting on the training field, breathing heavily. Talila looked annoyed while staring into the distance. When Nala spotted him, she jumped up with a delighted expression stretched across her pretty face.

The lioness rushed toward him, but instead of dodging or bracing for impact, Archer opened his arms wide, welcoming her embrace. Nala wrapped her arms around him with a joyful grin, burying her face into his chest.

Archer, in turn, enveloped her in a warm hug, his arms encircling her gently but firmly. Their embrace spoke volumes, conveying a deep trust and connection between them. Despite Nala's exhaustion from the battle, she found solace and comfort in his presence.

They stayed in the embrace momentarily before Archer let the lioness go before they approached Talila and cast Aurora Healing on her while placing a heartfelt kiss on her forehead.

His affection caused the grumpy elf to smile as she hugged like the others. After pampering the three some more before the girls wanted to wash. Archer kissed each one when they stepped through the front door.

They walked to the bath chambers while he cast Cleanse on himself and his clothes. Once Archer felt fresh, he started to make breakfast after walking to the kitchen and checking the cupboards.

Amidst an overload of food options, Archer was undecided until his gaze settled on a dish resembling Earth's pasta called Durum's Pasta. His decision was made when he discovered a sauce labeled Dragonfire in a mason jar.

Its fiery red coloring was like traditional tomato sauce, perfectly matching the pasta. After finding those two ingredients and planning what to eat, he knew what to cook after a few minutes, 'Pasta bolognese! But I need some meat. Where do the girls keep it?'

Archer looked around the kitchen but couldn't find anything, so he checked what he had in his Item Box. He started searching through it, but something happened as his consciousness was taken somewhere else.

He reappeared in an endless void of nothingness. Archer was baffled but soon realized it was in his Item Box and scanned his surroundings. That's when he saw thousands of things, including weapons, treasures, beast corpses, and more.

After a thorough search, he found a mountain-sized pile of beast corpses a dozen meters from where he had appeared. 'When did I collect all this?' he internally said while in shock. 'It must be the accumulation of the years of killing.'

All kinds of beasts, and there were some he didn't even remember fighting, which confused him to no end, but he shook his head before spotting the red dragon he fought in the past and thought he'd try dragon meat.

'Does this make me a cannibal?' When thinking that, he shrugged before continuing.

With his decision made, Archer walked towards the lifeless body and tore a chunk of flesh from the dragon's corpse. After that, he plucked the crimson scales from the skin. Dropping them to the ground, they vanished into thin air, only to reappear moments later a short distance away from him.

Archer looked at the glowing red scales and noticed hundreds of thousands of white ones of different sizes. He was confused until his scales were shed. He guessed that they had been sent here instead of the real world.

'I'll ask Tiamat when I see her next,' Archer thought before returning to the large piece of meat he was holding.

He left it near the dragon's body before wandering around his Item Box. He wondered why he'd never done this before but was amazed to see piles of gold coins, gems, and other valuable things.

That's when he saw the metal he collected from the cave he rescued Demacia from, and that reminded him to see the necromancers when he had some free time. Afterward, he left the Item Box and came back to reality while standing by the kitchen counter.

He shook his head and brought out the dragon meat, which had been cut off in the Item Box. Its weighty form landed with a thud beside him. Without hesitation, he started working using Mana Manipulation and skillfully trimmed away every bit of excess fat and gristle.

Once he had done that, Archer brought out the large bowl he could find and used the spell to cut the meat into mince. He then dropped it into the bowl before seasoning it with Crystal Shard Salt and Shadowbane Pepper.

While meticulously preparing the dragon meat, he set a pot of water atop the mana oven. He used Mana Manipulation to heat the water until it was boiling, releasing a cloud of steam due to the heat.

Archer carefully poured the Durum Pasta into the bubbling water, followed by a dash of salt, before working on the other part of the meal. While that was cooking, he turned his attention to the meat after taking out a pan and putting it in the mana oven.

He imbued the stove with mana, igniting the part beneath the pan with a fiery roar. With the pan now scorching hot, he placed the mincemeat inside, and as soon as it made contact with the metal, the cooking process began.

Archer reached for the Dragonfire Sauce as the meat cooked, effortlessly pouring it into the pan with a flick of his wrist. With a large spoon, he began to stir the meat and sauce together, infusing it with flavor before adding a sprinkle of Frostfire Chili Powder for an extra kick.

After adding that, Archer smelled a tantalizing aroma filling the kitchen as the dragon mincemeat simmered in the pan and was mixed with the fiery Dragonfire Sauce. When the smell of the spices hit his nose, his mouth watered.

He then lifted a spoonful of the hot meat to his lips. As he took a bite, a delicious flavor erupted on his tongue. The sauce mixed with the meat and Frostfire Chili created a delightful blend of heat and sweetness.

Archer continued cooking until the food was ready, then dished it into a massive bowl on the kitchen table just as Teuila, Nala, and Talila appeared. Teuila, the Aquarian Princess, wore a loose-

fitting white dress matching her sky-blue hair and clung to her sculpted figure.

Her outfit ended with a thick white hooded cloak wrapped around her shoulders, keeping her warm during the cold weather. After looking at Teuila, who was smiling at him, he turned to the lioness Nala.

Archer loved her outfit even though it wasn't suitable for the weather. She wore shorts that strained against her thick thighs and a dark blue wool-looking jumper. It was a weird combination of clothing, but it suited her well.

Next was her wild, dirty blonde hair, which cascaded down her back in waves that reached her bubble butt. Archer loves how fluffy and voluminous it evokes the image of a lion's mane, which makes sense as she is a lion princess.

Her sparkling sapphire-blue eyes locked onto him before she sniffed the air as the aroma hit her nose. Archer saw her tail excitedly wag behind her as it was clear the lioness loved the smell of the food.

Lastly, he turned to Talila, who was wearing tight black training pants that hugged her shapely thighs and a long-sleeved shirt that struggled to fit her ample chest. She was looking at the bowl on the table with a confused expression.

When Archer saw the three, a smile appeared before he greeted them, ''I was cooking while you three washed,'' he said while placing the utensils on the table. ''I wanted you to experience it as its new dish, I remembered from my previous life.''

Nala was the first to react as she walked up to the table before sniffing the air, causing her tail to straighten as her gaze turned to him, ''Does this include Frostfire Chili, Archie?

''Yes it does,'' Archer replied before continuing. ''I used Red Dragon Meat, Durums Pasta, Dragonfire Sauce, and chili to make it.''

When Talila heard this, her eyes widened, causing Archer to grow curious and question, ''What's wrong, Tali?''

''Ella and Halime love that stuff,'' the silver-haired elf replied. ''I'm sure they won't mind.''

''We won't mind what?'' A voice asked.

The sudden interruption caused Nala to yelp before everyone spun on the culprit, only to see Ella, Halime, Sera, and Lucrezia standing there. Archer beamed when seeing the four girls before motioning to the table, ''Take a seat, ladies,'' he insisted. ''You're just in time to try my new dish.''

Seated among the seven girls, Nala to his right and Ella to his left, Archer joined in the meal.
