Chapter 38 Dragon’s Domain

Archer arrived at the spot he woke up at, looking around he spotted the river washing into the ocean, he looked between the two. , ‘I’m lucky I got washed up.’ , He decided to follow the river north, hours passed as he still followed the river but the jungle was getting thicker the further he walked. , As Archer trekked through the dense jungle, he couldn’t help but be spellbound by the beauty surrounding him. , The sun was shining through the canopy, casting dappled patterns of light on the vibrant foliage. , The leaves of the trees were a rich assortment of greens, purples, and reds as if painted by a master artist. , Sounds of the jungle were alive with the chirping of birds, the buzzing of insects, and the occasional roar of a wild animal in the distance. , But the jungle was also a perilous place. , The ground was slick with moisture, making every step treacherous. , Vines snaked across the path like tripwires, and the trees were draped with hanging roots that obscured the way forward. , As he pushed deeper into the jungle, he found himself surrounded by a cacophony of sounds and smells that threatened to overwhelm his senses. , The beauty surrounding him was deadly, as he soon realized. , Poisonous plants with lush foliage hung overhead, and vines with thorns lurked around every corner. , The sounds of snapping twigs and rustling leaves signaled the presence of unknown predators. , Archer had been trekking through the jungle for hours, unaware of the danger that lurked in the shadows. , He had been so focused on the beauty of his surroundings that he hadn’t given a second thought to the possibility of encountering a man-eating beast. , But as he pushed through the dense foliage, he heard a rustling sound to his left. , In the next moment, a massive beast pounced on him from the bushes. , Archer barely had time to react before the beast was upon him, its sharp teeth bared and ready to tear him to shreds. , With all his might, Archer struggled against the beast, his heart pounding as he quickly cast Cosmic Sword. , Stabbing the beast in the head, it fell to the ground dead leaving his heart racing, Archer turned his head towards the beast. , It was a bear in all but color, it was a dark greenish color. , ”Suitable for a jungle.” , Getting back on his feet he cut out the beast’s heart, storing it away, that’s when he remembered he can create two new spells thanks to the jump in ranks. , Looking around he climbed up the closest tree and sat on a branch. , Pulling out and eating the hearts he has collected so far after he was done he checked his status. , ‘Status.’ , Experience: 3000/9000 , SP: 37>61 , ’61 huh.’ , Archer got 2400 experience from the hearts, and 500 from the jungle bear. , He spent 10 points on HP, mana, strength, constitution, and stamina, and put 6 on charisma and 5 on intelligence. , HP: 1310>1410 , Mana: 4600>4900 , Strength: 640>740 , Constitution: 700>800 , Stamina: 670>770 , Charisma: 750>810 , Intelligence: 620>670 , Feeling refreshed he pulled out some pastries and started eating as he admired the view from his perch. , As he was eating he heard growls and roars below him, he looked down and saw raptor-looking things fighting another dinosaur. , Pulling out some chocolate he started to eat as he watched the mid-afternoon entertainment. , As the fight was going on he remembered why he was up here and started to think about spells to create. , ‘I want a spell that creates a space for myself.’ , All of a sudden he got an idea about something called a Domain, so he started to imagine his own dimensional space that he can upgrade with his mana. , Spell Creation activated , Nothing happened, it didn’t bother him though as he was watching the dinosaur wrestling match, he pulled out a bottle of dragon tears and started drinking. , Dragon’s Domain created , Dragon’s Domain: A space where a dragon can horde his treasure and pamper his women, can be molded into whatever the user needs, and can be upgraded by using the user’s mana , He got happy as he managed to create such a skill, he didn’t want to create any more spells at the moment. , Happy that he has got a spot he can hide his stuff instead of keeping track of it in his Item Box. , Archer finished his drink and threw the bottle at the victorious dinosaur, hitting it on the head as it looked around baffled. , He giggled when he saw its reaction, he jumped out of the tree while casting a cosmic sword before impaling the beast. , It looked like a duck dinosaur from Earth, but had sharp teeth and could fight which confused Archer even more. , Taking his knife out he looted all three dinosaur hearts and stores them alongside the bodies. , ‘Dragon’s Domain.’ , A white portal appeared in front of him, he shrugged as he stepped through and saw grassland the size of a football pitch. , Looking around it was empty as far as the eyes could see but a smile came to his face as he started imagining the grasslands growing bigger, and a small forest popped up all around. , Large trees stretched into the sky, but something wasn’t right to him. , Picturing a massive tree in the middle of the forest with paths leading to it, Archer made his way down this peaceful-looking path that snaked its way through the forest. , Until it stopped at a massive tree, he checked his mana before doing anything else. , Mana: 2900/4900 , Looking up at the big tree he started picturing a cottage built into the tree with a balcony at the front, while inside there were bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a large room to store all his loot. , More shaking was felt as the tree molded itself into Archer’s perfect chill spot, though he will still sleep outside of the domain. , Nothing helps him relax more than a good old tree branch to sleep on, shaking his head he checked out his new creation. , Nestled at the center of the massive tree, stands a large fantasy cottage, built into the trunk itself. , Its walls are made of smooth, polished wood that has been worked to fit the shape of the tree as if the tree itself grew around the cottage. , The roof is made of wooden shingles that are covered in thick moss, blending seamlessly into the surrounding foliage. , Gleaming windows dot the exterior of the cottage, each framed by intricately carved wooden shutters that can be swung open to let in natural light and fresh air. , A sturdy wooden bridge leads up to the balcony which had a bench looking outwards, the front door is covered in intricate carvings of woodland creatures and leafy vines. , He could see a small balcony that overlooks the surrounding forest, offering breathtaking views of the canopy below. , Birds flitted and chirped around the cottage, and the rustling of leaves in the breeze provides a soothing soundtrack to the idyllic tranquility of the forest. , Archer started walking up the wooden bridge to reach the front door, opening the door he walked in. , As he stepped through the door of the plain but welcoming cottage, he was greeted with a cozy but spacious living area. , The walls are painted with light, warm colors, creating a sense of comfort and serenity. , Large windows allow the soft natural light to stream in, illuminating every corner of the room. , A comfortable sofa rests in front of the crackling fireplace, perfect for curling up with a book or spending time with Ella. , Nearby, a modest wooden dining table sat in the middle of the room, flanked by comfortable chairs upholstered in soft fabric. , The kitchen is simple but functional, with plenty of counter space for preparing meals. , A narrow staircase in the corner of the living area leads down to the basement, where Archer finds a large storage room. , The basement is dry and well-lit, with sturdy shelving lining the walls to store all sorts of items. , Whether it’s extra food or chests for gold, the storage room is spacious enough to accommodate all of his storage needs. , He walked through the treehouse and admired his handy work, looking around as he dropped onto the comfy sofa and relaxed for a little while. , While he was sitting there he pictured the domain to be more wild, with small beasts running and flying around with a small river running through the domain. , Checking his mana after everything was done. , Mana: 300/4900 , ”Oh **.” 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝑚, Archer took out a mana potion and quickly drank it. , Mana: 800/4900 , He stood up and walked over to the balcony doors and opened them as he walked through and leaned against the railing and looked out over the domain. , It was a small forest, trees stretched as far as the eyes could see, he saw some birds flying here and there. , Before he left he unloaded all the random loot he got into his storage room before leaving the domain. , Stepping out where he killed the three dinosaurs, he carried on with his walk while thinking. , ”I’m happy with Dragon’s Domain, every dragon needs a space to hide his treasures.” , A/N – Leave some comments, power stones, and gifts.
