Chapter 1176: You're The Demon King

Archer looked at the beautiful grey-haired woman and nodded, "There's plenty of food in my Item Box. It could last up to a year, which isn't a problem."
Mary beamed when hearing this. She jumped up while questioning, "What else do you have?"
"You'll have to wait and see," he answered while grabbing her thick waist.
The mature woman pushed herself up against him while wrapping her arms around his shoulders before kissing him. He happily reciprocated and as they did this, the cave started shaking.
They separated, causing Mary to mumble, "Damn sea serpents haven't given up."
Following that, Archer watched her step back as she spoke. "I have to go deal with these pests. I kicked them out of this place and claimed the cave."
He started laughing when hearing this. "Go deal with them. We can continue when you're finished. I'll go check on Vivienne to see how the Nightmare Ant Colony is coming along." The grey-haired woman nodded with a big smile before jumping into the water just as he opened a portal to the entrance of the ant's home. Archer stepped through only to have several assassins to lunged out from the surrounding trees.
When the monsters realized it was him, they quickly stopped before scuttling back into the underbrush. He was just about to enter the colony, but Vivienne appeared with a big smile just as he started to fade.
The ant queen grabbed him and both vanished, only to reappear in the Lionheart Kingdom where a group of Lion Knights were fighting the Alliance. Archer quickly noticed an injured Lioran.
Without waiting he spoke to Vivienne with a voice laced with determination, "Take out the foot soldiers, I'll deal with the Demi Gods."'
As soon as his friend spotted their arrival, he shouted with a triumphant grin, "Now you're all screwed! The Demon King has arrived!"
Before the enemies could process the warning, Archer surged forward in a blur, appearing directly in front of the Demi-God. With a fully charged Nova Punch, he struck with
devastating force, obliterating his opponent in an instant.
The sheer impact left a shockwave rippling through the battlefield. Without missing a beat, Archer turned to the remaining enemies, his eyes burning with fury. Panic spread among them, but he was already on them, relentless as a hound chasing prey.
Launching himself into the air, Archer's voice rang out with a commanding roar. "You dare attack my friends? Now suffer the consequences of your actions!"
His body crackled with unrestrained power. The Alliance Demi-Gods quickly surrounded him, their confidence obvious in their sneers and glowing weapons. He smirked, his eyes narrowing as the ground beneath him trembled.
"Is this all you've got?" he growled, his voice laced with disdain.
In a flash, Archer vanished, reappearing behind one of the Demi-Gods before they could react. With a single, devastating slash from his mana-infused claws, he cleaved through their defenses, shattering armor and annihilating them in an eruption of light.
A deafening shockwave erupted, tearing through the battlefield like a storm. The earth quaked beneath their feet, cracks splintering like veins, while the force hurled debris into the air, blotting out the sun.
Lioran staggered but kept his eyes fixed on Archer, who stood amidst the chaos like an unstoppable force of nature. His aura burned brighter than the stars above, which showed him that his friend was becoming a legend.
"You truly are a monster, brother," Lioran muttered, his voice a mix of awe and disbelief. His lips curved into a small, knowing smile. "Your dream... it's within reach."
The redheaded woman turned around with a friendly expression as she spoke. "I see you're my husband's friends. He doesn't have many, but I'm glad he cares to come to your aid."'
Lioran stepped forward and answered, "Husband? Are you his woman? I don't believe we've met. I'm Lioran Lionheart, brother-in-law to Archer and older brother to Nala." When the woman heard this, her eyes widened as she introduced herself. "I'm Vivienne
Wyldheart."
The others introduced themselves one by one: Cian, Alaric, Nalika, Leonora, Cassie, Tarial and Apollonia. Archer made note of each name as they were spoken. Lioran's gaze lingered on the red-haired woman as she nodded to each of them.
Lioran noticed her antennae twitched subtly, betraying her attention as she glanced southward. "Stay here," she said, her voice firm but calm. "My children will protect you.
More soldiers are on their way."
With a graceful wave of her hand, a portal appeared, and seconds later hundreds of giant black ants surged forth, their chitinous bodies gleaming in the light. He stood frozen, confusion flickering across his face, but the red-haired woman remained composed.
Turning to the monstrous creatures, she issued her command with unwavering authority. "Protect these young men and women. They are the Master's friends."
A cacophony of chittering filled the air as the ants responded and they encircled the group in a protective formation. Just then, Nalika and Leonora each reached for Lioran's arms, their worried expressions betraying their unease.
Following that, the ants went to work and killed the incoming Alliance soldiers with ease as
they watched a sea of monsters wash over the enemy just as a battered and bruised body crashed down next to them.
The women yelped in fright but Lioran calmed them down, "It's the enemy leader who is a powerful Demi God, ladies, don't worry."
Archer crashed to the ground with a thunderous impact, the force sending tremors through
the earth. Across from him, the injured man staggered to his feet, his voice dripping with venom as he snarled, "You're the Demon King! A blight on this world!"
