Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 181 Nurse's Call

After hearing Adora's opinion, the queen stared at her then lowered her head and smiled.

'She is a gentle soul, like her mother,' she thought as she smiled.

"Well, that's good to hear Adora, I was beginning to worry," the queen said.

"You shouldn't worry like that, you are a good mom and he is a good dad, you both did well," Adora replied, and Niya smiled as the queen sighed, relieved to hear Adora's words.

"Well, I'll go help Zavis, I promised I would, and now I don't want anyone else joining, you guys have one job and that is to rest, get better quickly, I hope I am making myself clear," Adora said as she got up and looked at them then they smiled.

"You are being clear, alright, more clear than you need to be," Aerav replied and she smiled then left.

"I got the chills just now, maybe it's because it's cold," Aerav said.

"I am pretty sure it's not the weather," Alix replied, and they laughed.

"She just wants us to know she is serious," Cameron said.

"I see, she can be scary at times," Aerav sighed, and Sarah patted him on the back because she was sitting right beside him.

While they were all chatting, the king and queen left to do their work, and Adora went to Zavis, who was training near the waterfall despite the cold.

"Don't you think you should get some rest?" Adora inquired, and he smiled as he looked at her.

"Adora, what are you doing here?" he asked as she approached him.

"Why are you in a rush? Are you scared Zavis?" she asked and he lowered his head while clenching his fists

"I guess you could say I am," he replied, and she sighed.

"I can't say there's no reason to be afraid, but there is no reason to rush; take your time and learn how to use your powers. Zavis, we are here to protect you; all you have to do is trust us. That's all I ask, that you relax and leave this to us," she said, and he looked at her then she patted him on the head with a smile on her face and he sighed.

"Okay, fine, I will leave it to you guys, but I will keep practicing except I will take my time," he replied.

"That's great to hear; what are you going to do now?" she inquired.

"I am trying to see what my powers are capable of, they can make vines move so far, it's weird but I think it's connected to nature," he responded, and she left staring at him before smiling.

"Of course it does, which is good for you and bad for the enemy; I wonder what the other sources can do; I destroyed one, you have the other; I hope I can get the rest; if I don't, then it won't be good; even if they get one, that will be a problem for us, that I am certain of," she said.

"Well, we have to fight in order for them not to get the rest, they won't go down that easily, I can bet they are actually pissed that you have two under your hands already, well one now, they are going to try again," he replied.

"I know they will, and that is when I will show them not to mess with my people," she said and he smiled.

"So how long ago did you guys wake up? I heard you don't get or don't sleep in late," he replied.

"Actually, it's both, but I got the rest I needed, so it's fine," she explained.

"Well, I'm glad you did, you needed it," he said to which she smiled.

"I do feel a lot more relieved," she said, "but I wore the mask for a long time..."

"I know, you started wearing it soon after your mother, uh...," he responded.

"Soon after she died, yeah, to be honest, it was for my own good," she said as he patted her on the shoulder.

"I am glad you took it off, I am glad you even came here, I thought that maybe we might never see you again, you were distant," he replied.

"I know, but trust me when I say it was all for the best, the best I could have done to keep people safe; now, however, a lot has changed, and this time I will not hold back from going after the enemy," she said.

"I expected you to say that after all, they made your life difficult, and it would be surprising if you didn't, their actions are wrong, and nothing in the world can justify hurting innocent people, am I right?" he asked.

"Of course you are, nothing in this world can justify what they are doing; I despise them," she replied.

"I know, and no one would blame you if you just wiped them out, so do you want to train with me, or do you want to go back inside?" he inquired.

"I am not in the mood to train to be honest, so let's go back inside," she said.

"Okay," he said as he jumped off the side of the waterfall and she followed him.

After going back to the living room where the others were, her phone rang and she took it out of her pocket, then looked at the number and saw it was Zack.

"Hello," she said.

"Is this Adora?" someone asked.

"Who is this?" she inquired, as the others turned to face her.

"This is the nurse who was assigned to you guys, my lady," she replied.

"Oh, hello, where is Zack?" she inquired.

"Your highness," she replied, "I believe you should all come down to the arena."

"OK, sure, is everything all right?" Adora questioned.

"You will see when you come," she said before hanging up.

"Come on, guys, we are going to the arena," she said with a concerned look and the other looked at each other.
