Rise of the Malactric Heir

"What exactly do you want to do?" Kyris asked while looking at Misran who sighed.

"What I am saying is that I want to go with you guys wherever you go when it comes to our main enemy's case," he responded, and Adora looked at him.

"So you'd join us alone, and the rest of your team would stay in the kingdom under the king's order, and if anything happens here, they'd be able to help protect it along with the others?" Do I have that right or wrong?" Adora asked and Misran smiled.

"You're right, after all, not everyone can tag along," he replied, and Adora sighed.

"You're right about that too, fine, I'll let you tag along and I'm sorry guys, but this is for the best, Olivia and Cameron will stay back here the next mission we go on," Adora said, and they smiled.

Cameron said, "That's fine," and Alix smiled.

"Is it?" Adora asked.

"Yes, you're only thinking of all of us, so that's fine, we understand," Olivia replied.

"I see, but are you sure this is okay?" Adora inquired.

"Yes, it's fine," Cameron responded, and Adora smiled.

"Is that settled?" the queen asked.

"Yes, for the time being, it is; there are a lot of us, but there is nothing we can do about it," Adora replied and the queen smiled.

"You're right, there's nothing you can do about it; all you have to do is make sure you're there for each other, protect each other, no matter what," the queen said, and Adora smiled.

"Got it," she replied, and the king smiled.

"Do you want to call in the other teams, Adora?" Misran inquired.

"Not a good idea, for the time being, they know what's going on, but they've been ordered to stand down, they'll come when we need them, even you thought it was best to keep it this way Adora," Kyris's brother said, and Adora nodded.

"He is correct; I agreed with him; I believe it is best to leave them be for now; the kingdom has enough protectors; let's hope that's enough," she replied.

"You are correct, we have no idea if things will go our way, we don't know if we will win, and the last thing that one should possibly even consider is underestimating the enemy, they are strong on a horrifying level, but I guess we have to give it our all because we are not weak either," Alix said, and the others agreed.

"The boy is correct," the king replied.

"Yeah, he is, well, all we have to do is get even stronger," Ayden added and Adora smiled.

"You've all gotten stronger than you think, I wonder when you'll realize that, anyways, I have other things to do, I'll see you guys later, enjoy your day off," Adora said as she stood up.

"Take someone with you," the king replied, and she turned to look at him before leaving the dining hall.

"Why?" she asked.

"To assist you in protecting yourself if necessary," the king replied.

"I'll go with her," Xemon said as he stood up, and Kyris and Adora both looked at him.

"Don't you have anything else to do?" Adora asked.

"The general will be with your father for a while, he is a strong man, your father will be fine, and Kyris will also be with the king, right Kyris?" Kyris smirked as he asked.

"Don't worry Adora, go on, the king and queen will be fine, and besides, this is a bit of practice for me, after all, I want to be the mage of the heir," Kyris responded.

"Alright, if that's what you want, so be it," she said before leaving with his brother. As they exited the castle, Adora turned to face him, and he smiled.

"What?" he asked.

"What are you doing? Even though we've become friends, you never just agree, which is strange "she responded to which he chuckled.

"Would you have preferred Alix came?" he asked, to which she scoffed.

"That's not it," she replied.

"You could have fooled me sweetie, but where are you going?" he inquired.

"To clear my mind," she responded.

"I don't believe that," he said and she sighed.

"Fine, I'm just going into the city; have there been any cases like Kyllan's recently?" she inquired.

"I see, you were going to the scientist and stopping by the parliament, weren't you?" he asked and she smirked.

"I wouldn't have stopped you from attacking them right now, but wait," he said.

​ "You of all people tell me to wait?" she inquired.

"Yeah, you should celebrate your birthday tomorrow, then make a move, isn't that better?" h e asked, and she lowered her head, remembering everyone's happy faces when they found out it was her birthday then sighed.

"I wasn't about to attack them, I was just about to drop some information on them, I wanted to see how they would react and what move they would want to make, I had no intention of going against what the king said, I am not stupid. I think before doing things," she replied, and he smirked, knowing she wasn't even lying.

"That's good to know, I see you are a little calmer, which is good, I thought you might be angry, and no, there haven't been any such cases recently; I'm not sure if there will be any more," he said.

"I see, they really did want to cause more trouble within the kingdom; if Kyllan had lost complete control that day, it wouldn't have ended well," she replied and he nodded.

"Well, I still need to check on something, do you still want to come?" she inquired.

"Sure, let's go," he replied as they both climbed into a car, and instead of bringing a driver, Kyris's brother decided to drive and then they left.

"Where do you think Adora will go?" the king inquired.

"Don't worry, your highness, she will be careful, and I doubt she will cause any trouble for the time being," Kyris replied, and the king sighed with relief.
