Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 165 The Day

After everyone finished eating, Adora got up and went to get a glass of chocolate milk in the kitchen since there was no one there.

"Ah, this feels nice," she said as she sipped her milk and smiled.

"I feel nice and relaxed this morning," she mumbled, gnashing her teeth as she remembered Casian's words.

"I wish I could wipe the smug look off his face, pathetic, I have a feeling he is up to no good, I will smash his face into a wall if he tries anything stupid," she said as she ate a few freshly baked chocolate and chip cookies from a jar.

When Adora finished she wiped her lips and placed her mask back on but as she was about Alix came into the kitchen and grabbed her by the arm.

"You seem to have eaten out your food, are you going to complain now?" she asked when he locked the kitchen door, placed his plate on the cupboard and lifted his shirt up and she left staring at the mark on his chest.

"When did that appear?" she inquired.

"I found it this morning, so it was probably last night while I was sleeping; do you know what it means?" he asked.

"No, but I am sure it's related to your little block there, which has grown recently," she replied, and he sighed.

"Will this affect me in this fight?" he asked.

"It probably will," she replied, "but I can release the block now if you want."

"No, not now, only if you think I am going to lose my fight," he said to which she smiled.

"You are really determined to win this aren't you?" she asked.

"I don't know, maybe," he replied, "I mean, I can't let all that training go to waste." She scoffed.

"If you say so, fine," she said, "I will do as you wish, but I want you to be cautious during your match with Casian."

"You still don't trust him, huh?" he questioned.

"Do you?" she asked.

"No, I don't, I don't like the way he spoke, he was definitely trying to tell you something, at least that's what I think," he said.

"I feel the same way; come on, let's join the others," she said as they walked to the living room, where they knew the others would be once they finished breakfast.

"Alix, do you know how Casian fights and what his abilities are?" Kyris inquired as Alix and Adora entered the living room.

"Not much," Alix replied, "his fighting style is different from the others, more advanced."

"You truly are Mr. Observer," Kyris said, and Alix sighed.

"You are right, fighting him will require both stamina and speed; do you think you can go head to head with Casian?" Kyris inquired.

"I believe I can compete with him if I put everything I have learned so far out there," he replied, and Kyris smiled.

"I am glad to hear that, this match has me worried because they are all at a higher level and at a very frightening rate, the only way to win is to break your own record and go higher than theirs," Kyris said.

"You are correct, and that is what we intend to do, we will not let them walk over us, I despise it when people do that, and they are confident they will be able to kick us aside, another reason I don't like them, even if I acknowledge that they are strong, I have no intention of fearing them, we will not let them win," Alix said as his eyes glowed red and Adora smiled.

"I admire that," Isabella said, smirking.

"So do I, and we will be there to cheer you guys on," Cameron said, giving Alix and his team hope.

"Thank you for your support guys," they said while lowering their heads and Adora walked up to them, then patted Aklix on his head along with Sarah, Ayden and Aerav then they rose up.

"You don't have to thank us either, but I was wondering if you were sure that even if you didn't win or even if you did win, you would still be my team?" Adora inquired.

"Of course, we will," they said, and Alix agreed with his teammates.

"Well, guys, I think we should all go to the arena right now; we don't want to be late, do we?" Kyllan inquired.

"He is right, we should not be late no matter what," Adora said.

"All right, then we will go get our things," Alix replied, and they went to get their things while Adora smiled.

"They have all grown a lot haven't they?" Olivia inquired as she approached Adora.

"Yeah, they have, and I guess that's a good thing in its own way," she replied, to which Olivia smiled gently.

"I like the idea of combining all of us into one big team; there is no need for separate ones, and the others agree as well; after all, they have no problem with Alix and the others," Olivia explained.

"I am delighted to hear that Olivia, and I will do it as soon as possible," Adora responded.

"There's no rush, you can take your time," Olivia yawned, and Adora patted her on the shoulder as they came with their necessities.

"Are you guys ready?" Kyris asked as his staff appeared in his hand.

"Yeah, we are ready," Alix responded as the blue formation formed beneath their feet, teleporting all of them to the arena and Zack smiled when he saw them in the lobby and went over to them.

"I see you're here, and good morning," he said.

"Yeah, we are, good morning Zack," Alix replied.

"Well, I'm glad you guys came early, you can warm up if you want, you can even get things at the canteen and relax a bit more, this place is packed, it's going to give me a nervous breakdown," Zack said as they looked out at the arena and gasped at the sight of a much larger crowd than they had ever seen in the tournament before.
