Rise of the Malactric Heir



While Adora was eating, she thought about what could happen and knew that she had to take a chance and hoped that with help the person would be able to meet her when the time was right.

A while after, when they finished eating, Alix stretched off and looked at Adora who wiped her eyes before clutching her head and sighing.

Alix tapped her on her shoulder and she looked at him, then he smiled and she held onto his hand while Ifrit and Nina peeked at them.

"Are you okay?" Alix asked.

"Yeah, I am fine, just a bit tired, don't worry," she responded and he exhaled deeply, then she got up and looked out the front shield of the ship.

Adora's phone rang and she sighed, then picked it up.

"Hello," she said.

"Hi," the person replied and when she heard a different voice answering the phone, she gnashed her teeth and clenched her right fist.

"The one we were chasing got away, so is this really your doing princess?" the person asked. Adora chuckled and they all looked at her.

"I suggest you stop, I recognize your voice the next time we meet, you will not like it, I will make sure you pay," she said and Ifrit glanced at her then he got up and snatched the phone from her hand and she glanced at him.

"Adora, going against us was the biggest mistake of your life, you are an opponent I wish to fight, let's see what happens, your team members will burn as well, also if I were you, I would up my game, the semi-final will begin soon, then the finals, the race will start, that my news to you, his decision to enact the final part has been made," the person replied and when Alix heard that, he stood up since Ifrit placed the phone on speaker.

"If you manage to touch them, I will burn you alive, mark my words, you will watch yours burn as well," she said then ended the call with her eyes glowing bright orange and Ifrit looked at her as she turned her back on him.

"What was that about?" Alix asked.

"Like I said earlier, they started making their moves, if they catch up to any of my team members by mistake, they will only give them two choices, that guy is the captain of one of the enemy's teams, Vellon knew him as well, he found my friend's burner phone, seems like their leader might make another move soon, you guys heard, soon it will all begin," Adora responded and Alix sighed.

"Have they attacked any other cities as yet?" Alix asked.

"I will check in with my brother in the morning, I wonder if it's really going to get started soon," Kyris responded and Adora's lips trembled as she thought about her team members and everything that could be lost if they failed and the very same thing, was what Alix thought about at the moment.

"Then we need to get this over with quickly and head home just in case something breaks out, Adora is your friend alive?" Alix asked.

"Yeah, he is alive, I don't know where he is though and to keep everyone safe, he can't contact me, he is on his own for now," she responded.

"I see, well Scott, increase the speed of the ship, we need to get to that location as soon as possible, full speed if possible," Alix said.

Scott bowed his head and they left staring at him and Adora glanced at Scott.

"I- I am going to get going," Scott said and Adora glanced at Alix then she sighed before collecting her phone from Ifrit, he grabbed onto her shoulder and she patted him on his hand.

"Adora..." Ifrit said.

"If he goes at full speed we will be able to arrive by tomorrow," she replied.

"You guys should get some rest, you might need it," Alix said and the others agreed with him then they got up and went to their rooms.

"Cool your head down, you need to relax Adora, once whatever truth there is, once it is out..." Ifrit said and she looked at him and then smiled.

"I know, good night Ifrit," she replied and he smiled at her then went to his room and Alix looked at Adora.

"Good night, Alix," she said.

"Good night," he replied, then went to his room and Adora sat down on the couch and held onto her head.

"I am tired... I just want all of this to be over now, I don't want any of this," she mumbled, then the star marking appeared in her eyes and she saw it on the table and she sighed.

"This is another simple truth that I have to tell him, I hate these secrets as well, I can't wait for tomorrow to reach, I want to get rid of them all, maybe then I..." she said.

A few minutes later, Adora got up and decided to go to her room.

She opened her room door and when she was about to enter, she came to a halt, looking at the dark room, she sighed then closed the door and went to Alix's room.

She opened his room and saw he was on his bed and there were no lights on. The girl entered his room, then took her soft jacket off before laying beside Alix and wrapping her hand around him.

"I am sorry, I think I will be more comfortable here," she said as she held onto him tightly.

Alix glanced at her since he was awake and he placed his hand on her head and her eyes widened and she raised up to look at him.

"You are awake?" she asked and he chuckled.

"Yeah, you are going to sleep here tonight, come on, I am tired as well," he responded and she hugged him tightly, placing her head on his chest and he exhaled deeply.

"Good night, Adora," he said while passing his fingers through her hair and tears appeared in her eyes and her lips trembled.

"Good night, Alix," she replied and a gentle smile appeared on his face and within no time, both of them fell asleep.
