Chapter 992: Lingering Souls

The Davis Range Rovers were on their roofs in the manor courtyard while on fire as the guards rushed to save the people; more were even lying on the ground dead or injured. When Alexa saw the scene, she stood in shock, trembling and mumbling about her mother and other sisters in the vehicles.
When Archer saw this, he felt terrible and comforted her by hugging her and whispering, "Remember what I said when we were sitting on that beach where we were twelve?"
She nodded before replying, "You said you would move mountains and help me in any way you can."
Archer smiled as he spoke while cupping her cheeks that were stained with tears, "Now watch what your husband can do and fall more in love with me, my girl,"
Without wasting any more time, he waved his hand and used Mana Manipulation to put the flames out, which shocked everyone. The guards aimed their weapons at him while telling him to step back.
"Shut up, or you will die if you speak again," Archer replied coldly.
Following that, he ignored them while approaching the destroyed wreckage before pulling out the four women he had known all his life, along with their bodyguards. It didn't take him long to realize that they all had passed away due to the explosions.
While studying them, Alexa ran up to him and nearly broke down but remembered his words. Archer stood up and barked an order, "Gather the four women here while putting the injured over there," he pointed at the nearby grass.
The surviving guards did as he said, and three minutes later, there were close to thirty dead people. Archer rubbed his hands together as he thought, 'Im a Demi-God, let's put my power to use and stop messing around.'
He was about to cast Mana Manipulation to engulf the bodies when Tiamat's voice sounded in his mind, 'It won't work my love. You must create a spell that will help you.'
When hearing this, Archer stopped before activating Spell Creation and created something called Dragon's Revival, which would use his immense amount of mana to bring back recently deceased people.
While doing this, he looked at the bodies with his dragon sense and noticed the odd-looking mana seeping out of them. The scene before him left him momentarily confused, but the sound of a completed spell snapped his focus back.
He pushed the distraction aside without hesitation and prepared for whatever was coming next. Archer activated and felt most of his mana leaving his body, causing him to drop to one knee while panting.

'Please help them, Arch,' Alexa thought intently, watching the scene unfold.
She panicked when Archer dropped to one knee, and a violet cloud appeared above him, causing her to think, 'Is this mana? It makes me feel weird. It's like electricity is in the air.'
Alexa shook her head as he raised his hand and pointed toward the bodies of her mother and sisters, who looked at peace, but soon enough, glowing violet orbs started to be created above each of the dead.
'Amazing, magic is special. I do hope I can use it,' she pondered while watching her childhood love do something straight out of an anime.
While this unfolded, Alexa noticed a sudden shift in the air behind Archer. A mysterious door materialized, and through it stepped three stunning women. She immediately recognized Nyx and called out to her.
'Wow, he does have some beautiful fiances.'
Nancy gasped, disbelief flooding her voice. "Bring them back to life? That's impossible!" Beside her, Grace broke into sobs, overcome with emotion.
Alexa noticed Nyx's mismatched eyes lock onto her sisters. With an enigmatic look, the dragon woman responded, "Watch closely. You're witnessing the rise of a future god. Archer is no longer the man you once knew."
At that moment, another powerful boom echoed as Archer gently lowered the glowing orbs into the lifeless bodies. The energy pulsed through them, illuminating the area in a divine
light.
The awe on the women's faces was unmistakable, their breath catching in their throats. Maeve covered her mouth in shock, whispering in disbelief, "Soul Resurrection... It's only spoken of in legends, a tale for children. Yet, here it is, right before our eyes."
***
Pour every bit of mana into the four orbs above the Davis women, Archer commanded himself,
focusing intensely.
With a graceful wave of his hands, the violet orbs descended, merging into the lifeless bodies below. As they made contact, they drained nearly all of his mana, leaving him with just a sliver
of power.
The fusion was instantaneous-his mana intertwined with their forms, mending every wound in seconds. Then, he saw them-four lingering souls hovering near their former vessels as if
they were about to leave.
Without hesitation, Archer reached out, grasping each one. He then guided each soul into its rightful body, instinctively knowing which belonged where. This took its toll on his body as he had never done anything like this.
After ten tense minutes, Archer checked on the four women and saw their chests rising and falling-breathing again. Relief washed over him, but then his vision dimmed, and the world
began to spin.
Just as he struggled to stay upright, a pair of weak arms gently wrapped around his shoulders. Alexa's voice whispered in his ear, "Thank you for saving my family, Arch."
Before he could respond, the world suddenly froze, time seemingly grinding to a halt. Confused, Archer glanced around, searching for an answer. That's when he noticed her-a woman standing just a few feet away, an amused smile playing on her lips as she watched him
with a curious gaze.
She had long white hair, pale white skin, and deep black eyes, giving him the distinct feeling
of death. Archer stood up and shook his head, feeling the woman's mana go haywire as his head stopped spinning.
