Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 274 Captured

'In what perspective do I want to see Alix right now?' She pondered, then got out of bed and went to take a bath to clear her mind.

A little while after Alix left, he arrived at his apartment and the first thing he did was took a bath.

'I'm going to learn more about my power, I'll practice a little more today, I will see what more I can do, I wonder if the others will be able to train after last night,' Alix wondered, knowing that he'd already gotten used to everything around him and his new way of life, and he knew he had found a purpose.

They had all grown and wanted to get stronger in the months they had spent together, and Alix wanted to push himself to his limit, which he was nowhere near, yet he was very strong, stronger than even he knew.

Alix's phone rang after he finished his bath, and he picked it up when he saw it was Kyris.

"Good morning, Kyris," he said.

"Good morning Alix, I wanted to ask you, do you have any plans?" Kyris asked.

"Aside from seeing the princess get rid of the parliament today and training a little, not much," he responded.

"I see, that's good, I wanted to tell you, the princess just came down, it's nearly 10 a.m. and she says she will be heading to the parliament at midday, she is going somewhere now, call the others and tell them to meet us at the parliament at that time, I would do it but I have a few things to do," he said.

"Alright, don't worry, I will pass on the message," he replied.

"Nice, thank you Alix," Kyris said.

"No problem," he replied, then hung up. Alix changed, then called the others in their group chat and told them what Kyris said, and they all agreed to meet at the parliament at noon.

After Alix finished talking to them, he went over to Sally's to buy a few things to eat.

"Won't you have breakfast before you leave, Adora?" the queen asked.

"I'm sorry I can't, but I'll be eating with a friend," she replied, and the queen smiled.

"That's good, be careful," the queen said and Adora smiled at her.

"I will, you guys stay safe too, I will meet you all at noon," she replied and the king nodded then Adora left to go meet Ifrit at the cafe.

The king lowered his head after Adora left, and the queen looked at him.

"What's the problem?" she inquired.

"I don't know why I have a bad feeling today, but whatever it is, I don't want anyone getting on Adora's bad side today, her birthday was only yesterday," he responded.

"I am sure she will be fine," she said with a smile, "even if someone gets on her bad side, Adora knows how to keep her cool, she is strong enough to protect herself and others." The king sighed.

"You are correct, it is nearing noon as well; let's go get our things done before then," he replied, and she nodded before they went about their business.

When Adora arrived at the cafe, she went inside, sat down and ordered herself cappuccino and a pastry to eat for breakfast since she was hungry.

While Adora was eating, she sighed because Ifrit had not yet arrived.

"Where is he? He is not one to be late, especially at times like these "Adora mumbled as she pulled out her phone to call him using the number she had got for him, but there was no answer.

'I guess I'll have to wait a little longer,' she thought as she sipped her morning drink.

Adora had been waiting for more than half an hour, and it was only a short time until noon.

'I can't stay here much longer, Ifrit, where are you?' She sighed as she remembered how dangerous it was for him to be in the kingdom, and she knew that if anyone discovered he was the ancient demon, there would be trouble not only for her, but mostly for him, and the last thing Adora wanted at the time was a fight.

"I'll try summoning him; if he doesn't come, I'll take it as a sign that something is wrong," Adora said as she exited the cafe, took a deep breath, and closed her eyes after entering a side alley near the cafe.

"Demon of the old, demon of fire, hear my words, I summon you,Ifrit," she said as a green circle appeared on the ground in front of her, but Ifrit was not within it.

'Damn it,' Adora thought as she set out in search of Ifrit.

Adora had been searching for Ifrit for some time when the others in her teams who were currently there and had agreed to meet them at the parliament along with the king and queen and the mage with the general arrived at the parliament, waiting for Adora.

After their arrival there, they saw a swarm of LARS agents outside, as well as a few parliament members, and there was a commotion in the crowd.

"What exactly is going on here?" The king inquired, and Sam, the very same parliament member who was arguing with Adora at her ball, smiled at him.

"Your highness, we made a great catch after years," he replied.

"What are you going on about?" the queen asked, when Alix saw the guy Adora was dancing with at the ball, Ifrit, in shackles with magical seals on them, his eyes widened.

"You-" Alix said, and Ifrit smiled as he looked at him.

"Your highness, I am pretty sure you all know him, this is the ancient demon with the fire element, Ifrit," Sam said, drawing a gasp from the king.

"Kyris," Alix said, and Kyris turned to face him.

"What's the matter Alix?" Kyris asked and Alix exhaled deeply.

"He was with Adora at the ball, she said he's like family to her," he responded, and Kyris left staring at him then sighed "This will not end well for them."
