Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 10 A Technique

Later that day after night feel and Alix was working at the bakery, the colors in the night sky mixed with white, blue, and red, shining down onto the kingdom along with the moon.

Everyone was fascinated by the beautiful sight of an unknown phenomenon.

'What the hell is that?" Alex asked as he looked up at the sky and his hands trembled as a blue light appeared out of nowhere as if it was cutting through time snd space and while everyone was distracted something came out of the hole and after it did, everything went back to normal.

'What the hell was that?" the princess as she looked at the city from her balcony while her tiger rubbed himself on her feet feeling anxious for no reason.

"What's the matter boy?" she asked and he roared.

His roar was so loud that it echoed through the kingdom startling the people a bit.

'Enough, go inside" she said as she patted him and her father came into her room.

"Why did he roar so loud? h is a magical beast sweetheart, keep him at bay" the king said.

'He is just scared, stop calling him a beast, he has protected me whenever I needed him to, it's not fir for you to talk to him like that," she replied.

"Honey do not pet this animal too much," her stepmother said.

"Call me honey again and I will kick you into space" she replied and the king sighed.

"You are one rude little girl," she said.

"I don't care what you of all people think of me, keep your filthy thoughts to yourself, leave my room this instant" Adora replied and the woman left furiously.

"Behave, I will see you in the morning, good night," the king said as he walked away and the girl sat down on her bed with a sigh.

'Something is seriously wrong with this place" she thought as she fell asleep.

The next morning Alix woke up at 5 am, yawned, and got out of bed.

'I have to get up so early just to train?" he asked himself as he went to freshen up.

After doing so he noticed a dark matter surrounding him after he got changed into his clothes and looked at himself in the mirror.

"What the hell is that?" he asked as the matter formed into the face of some creature with a wicked smirk.

'I know of people having powers but this takes it, I am going to see a bloody doctor" he said then left.

After a little while of traveling, Alix arrived at the castle and the princess was sitting by the doorway with her tiger waiting for them.

"You are late," she said with a stretch.

'Seems like you did not sleep well, good morning your highness" he replied and she scoffed.

'The others will be here soon, have a sit" she said and so he did.

"Are you going to train with us?" he asked and she sighed.

"Will you be able to make it Alix?" she asked as he looked at her.

"She is a brat, stubborn yet helpful to others, doesn't care much about herself, in a nutshell, what kind of a person is she?" he thought.

"I have to do this" he responded.

"If you are doing it just to get money then forget about it, you will never win that way," she said and he scoffed.

"How can you be so cold?" he asked as she glanced at him.

"I am who I am, that's none of your concern, don't waste my time that's all I am saying" she responded.

"That's a tad cold but your highness are you okay?" Nina asked as she walked out in her strap nightdress which printed her boobs a little and Adora took her scarf off as the others came and Aerav left staring at her.

"Nina" Adora called out as she true her scarf at the girl and she grabbed onto it.

'Oh, I am sorry" she said with a wicked smirk and Alix looked at her then sighed.

"Can we just get started? we have to go in a few hours" Alix said.

'Your highness your meeting later on with the scientist, he postponed it" a guy said as he came to her.

'It's early why am I hearing of these things so early in the morning?" she asked.

'Elijah, start their training, and you better not go easy on Alix, I am serious" she responded as Elijah stretched off.

"Nina i sent Xios on a mission in the south, any news from him as yet?" she asked and Nin downed her head as her hair fell before her face.

'No news, he can take care of himself, he is not helpless" she responded.

'Don't Nina... he is one of us, you are too, please, also Alix you will be learning the defensive Martial arts, is that okay?" she asked.

"Defensive Martial arts is when you immobilize your opponent by utilizing their pressure points on the body, your primary focus lies on both throws and punches and it often relies on the stamina and strength of yourself and your opponent, never underestimates your opponent," he said and she smiled.

'You know your stuff, the biggest strength of this technique is versatility and speed, do you know that?" she asked and he nodded yes.

"Your weakness with using this technique, what might that be if you are not strong enough?" she asked.

'Potential lethal moves, it solely depends on the fighter though" he responded.

"I am impressed, you know your stuff," she said and Elijah smiled upon seeing the princess praising Alix.

'Go on, it's time for you guys to train, you have wasted enough time and the sun will be up soon" she said as Elijah ran off and they followed him.

'Aren't you going?" Nina asked.

"No, Elijah can handle this one, there is something off about that boy, do me a favor and do a background search on Alix," she said as she walked into the castle.

'As you wish my lady" Nina replied.
