chapter 1111: summon you when it's time

archer nodded at his father with a warm smile. "that's fine. the garden is huge, and i'll have plenty of palaces for you to relax in."
hearing this, darren's eyes lit up with excitement. archer watched his father's reaction before adding, "you can wait in my domain; robert bennett is already there, but he is pissed off because i'm punishing him."'
his father's eyes widened but quickly nodded, "sounds good, son; how can i get there?"
archer grinned before opening a gate to the domain and the floor his grandfather was on. darren stepped through after hugging him with a pleased smile, and shortly after that, he heard robert's voice, "oh look, who is it! my useless son-in-law, get your ass in here and make me some tea. my grandson has become a tyrant and locked me away."
"'shut up, old man. you tried to scream at ashoka, and this is your punishment," archer retorted with a grin. "most people would have been killed, but because you're my grandfather, you're still here."
after that, he left the domain and went to see sasha and cece, who peppered his face with kisses and told him to visit them once the war calmed down. archer agreed to the twins' request.
once archer finished with them, he appeared in the white house and caught elizabeth off guard as she was working on some paperwork. "oh arch, you scared me. is everything okay?" "i'm heading back to my world for a while. there's some stuff to deal with, but i thought i'd come see you before i left," he replied with a charming smile.
elizabeth's face lit up at his words as she rose to her feet and wrapped her slender arms around his shoulders. the embrace was warm and familiar, prompting archer to smile as he hugged her back.
"i'll be so busy," she murmured, her tone affectionate. "the next few months will be crazy, but promise me you'll look after yourself, darling."
the two continued talking until someone knocked on the door, causing archer to teleport to isabella's house after giving her one quick kiss. there, he and micha were waiting. he noticed the women sitting around drinking tea while watching tv.
isabella was the first to see him and beamed as she spoke, "how's dad?"
"the same fouled-mouth old man he was always," archer replied with a chuckle before summoning robert.
his grandfather collapsed on the chair, shocking the two women as the man looked younger and healthier. when archer looked at him, his eyes widened, 'just like i remember him,' he thought.
robert turned to micha with a big smile and exclaimed, "this demon made me young again, daughter! i feel so much better since the cancer has gone."'
when micha and isabella heard this, they teared up, but the old man cut that short, "none of that, ladies! it's bad enough i've had that soppy darren fussing over me; he's become creepy now."
archer laughed as he explained, "dad has become very friendly now."
an explosion rocked the ground, sending tremors through the earth. fortunately, her enhancement absorbed much of the impact, allowing her to stay steady. without hesitation, she dashed toward the castle walls, leaping up and scaling them.
'atleast my claws and help me get into the fortress,' she mused excitedly.
the lionheart soldiers above recognized her and held their positions, allowing her to climb unhindered. when nala reached the top, she transformed into her humanoid form just as an older woman appeared and knelt alongside the soldiers.
clad in the armor of a lionheart general stood inara silvermane, a trusted friend of her father and one of archer's favored companions. nala took in her commanding presence, admiring her beauty and strength.
'she would be a good addition to darlings pride,' she grinned.
inara inclined her head respectfully and greeted her, "princess nala, it's a relief to see you, especially in dire times. our scouts reported that the draconians are engaging the alliance forces to the west, though it seemed almost too unlikely to believe."'
"we are here and fighting the alliance dogs; they pushed us back to our beach fortress. the legions are managing to hold them back, but it will be too late as they overwhelm us," nala responded while taking out some ale and downing it.
inara's red eyes widened in shock, and the surrounding soldiers exchanged anxious glances. yet nala's voice remained steady and confident. "we'll abandon the fortress once i've cleared the enemy forces. afterward, you'll push through, but we'll flank the alliance army and follow the coastline until we rendezvous with the legions."
"are you sure we can make it? only a few thousand of us left and hundreds of wounded," the older woman revealed.
a concerned expression appeared on nala's pretty face as she waved her hand behind her, which sent a wave of earth spikes that sliced through the air and peppered the alliance lines, causing plumes of smoke to shoot into the air.
when the lionheart soldiers heard this, they looked worried, but nala continued, "i will deal with them. just make sure to move when the soldiers are down."
inara nodded with determination before shouting orders out as the lionheart men and women went to work loading up the injured. while this happened, nala jumped off the wall, transformed into her lion form, and crashed into the enemy lines.
after that, she sent a wave of earth that decimated most of the soldiers, but she still started
attacking them with her claws and teeth. the alliance army didn't know what to do as nala dodged most of their cannon shots.
the ones that did hit made her growl in frustration, but she sent earth bolts back in response, which caused them to explode.
