Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 14 Sword

"Stop right there, don't say another word, you married the guy your sister was married to, you know how sick that makes me yet you show concern for me why?" Adora asked as a wicked smirk appeared on the queen's face, she placed her hand around Adora's waist and pulled the girl close to her.

"I care because you mean a lot to me, there is nothing that you can do that will change that, now go take care of yourself, sweetheart, don't spoil this pretty face of yours, go" she responded then released the girl and Adora walked away angrily.

"Are you okay?" Sally asked as Alix walked into the bakery with his hands trembling.

'Yeah I am fine Sally, I will just get to work" she responded.

'You can't you have training" she said and he sighed while feeling useless.

"Your highness, Ayden, Aerav and Sarah are here for training," a guard said as she was about to enter her room and pulled her hair before her face, she looked at him sternly.

"Get Elijah to start their training, I need some rest, also tell him to get Alix here too, I am not going easy on him after well just go to Elijah" she replied and he bowed and then left.

"That feeling, fear, anger, they were all there, on Alix, who the hell is this kid?" she asked herself as she went to her bathroom to change.

A little while after a knight walked into the bakery.

"Alix" he called out.

"I am here to take you to the castle," the knight said.

'Does this girl have no heart?" Alix asked.

'Go on be safe" Sally said and he smiled as he got into the car with the knight and left.

"You guys are here, nice, Elijah will take care of you two," she said.

'You are our mentor, not him not that we have a problem with him though" Ayden replied.

"Good as long as you don't have a problem, now I know you guys train on your own too so put it to use," she said.

'What about Alix?" Ayden asked as the knight arrived with Alix.

'Alix will be my personal student, meaning I will teach him since he seems to be a special case" she said.

'What?" he asked.

"Think you can get someone better to teach you?" she asked and he sighed.

"Fine if you insist" he responded as she looked at them.

"Are you ready to choose a weapon Alix?" she asked.

"Sure I guess" he responded as she grabbed him by the collar and pulled him towards her.

Alix looked at her with zero concern in his eyes, he didn't give a damn.

"What?" he asked.

"Pull yourself together, I don't want to be the one to dig your grave," she said as a few weapons appeared before her and Alix.

"Choose wisely," she said as he looked at the weapon levitating before him.

There was a handgun that lit up blue, an axe along with a double-edged red and white sword, a scythe, the blue angel wing arrow and bow and a metal gloves with a diamond in the middle that allows its users to capture magical beasts.

"Make a choice," she said as she looked at him.

"I think I will take this" Adora said as the double-edged red and white blade sword moved to her but then pulled back to Alix and got stuck choosing between them.

"What the hell?" she asked as he was about to grab the sword but she took it first.

"What are you?" he asked.

"This is my sword Alix, I will not let you have it just because you are stronger" she responded.

"Why are you like this?" he asked and a smirk appeared on Adora's face.

"Here," she said as she gave him another sword made of black and silver designs.

"Thanks," he said and she smiled.

"Alix, is there something you are hiding?" she asked.

'Why do you hide your face? is it because you are ugly?" he asked.

"What did you just say?" Nina asked in an angry tone as she was about to pounce on Alix but Adora grabbed her by the arm.

"I am going to rip this kid apart," she said.

"No, let it be, maybe I am ugly, I thought Elijah explained why I wore a mask but I guess everyone has their own opinion, come on, we are going to train on the hills, it's once and fresh there," she said as she walked away.

"Damn it, maybe I should trust her," Alix thought as they walked to the hills.

Upon arriving there, she looked at Elijah who disappeared without any trace.

"He has the power to disappear for ten minutes, not more or less, if you can find him by then I will decide who stays in this team and who doesn't," she said and they gasped.

"But I thought this would remain our team" Aerav replied.

'I decide on that, you won't be any good if you are useless" she said and Alix smiled.

'Do what she says, find him and I think she wants us to take our belongings from him, noticed our weapons are gone, if each of us retrieves it within the ten-minute window we will be able to stay in this same team and with them as our mentor, we have to learn to work together, but my weapon is still here" Alix said and she smiled.

"You can adjust and work with them as a team yes or no?" she asked as she moved so fast that he could barely see her.

"Stop moving," he said as he grabbed her by the arm and her eyes widened then she shoved him away.

"Answer my question, if you can't I will put you guys up for a greater test during the tournament, trust me that's not something you want," she said.

"It's really up to you guys you know," Elijah said as he reappeared and they jumped.

'So what's it going to be Alix?" Elijah asked.

'Fine I will answer, yes we all get along well so I have no problem working with them" he responded and Sarah sighed.

'Man, you are the best, you saved us here, believe me you did" Ayden said.

'Go on, i will stay here with this one" Adora said and the others went deeper into the woods.
