Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 290 Good Enough

In the morning, Adora got up at 9 a.m. and went to freshen up before joining the others in the living room to have breakfast.

"Good morning," she said.

"Good morning," they replied, and she sat down and poured herself a glass of water, which she drank, while the others brought out breakfast for them to eat, and they began eating because even she was hungry.

"Who cooked breakfast?" Eliza inquired.

"I did," Alix responded and Adora smiled.

"It's good, and it's also healthy," Adora said, and he looked at her.

"Really?" he asked.

"Yeah, I have no reason to lie, am I right guys?" she asked, to which they replied with a nod, enjoying their breakfast.

"She's right, it's really good; I had no idea you could cook," Ifrit responded.

"Well, thank you, and I learned to cook when I was younger," he said, and Ifrit smiled.

"I would hire you as my personal chef and I am not exaggerating, it's my opinion, even I didn't know you could cook so well, I wish I could, I couldn't even if it's to save my own life," Ayden said, and the others laughed. Alix smiled, and Adora made herself a cup of coffee.

"Scott, are we still on course?" Kyris asked.

"Yes, we are, and right on time," he replied.

"That's good to hear; having a ship like this is more than just useful," Kyris said, and they agreed.

"Also, the reception is perfect, I can use the internet without any problems, I love the modern world," Zavis said then Adora patted him on the head and he smirked.

"True, everything has changed; it's dangerous, but a lot of things are simpler, to do," Zack responded.

"That's right, everything is just fancy now, and the old generations are handing over the world to the new generation, us, things can be a lot more better for everyone if villains would just disappear and stop making people's lives miserable, it's annoying how they just keep showing up, their selfish motives kills lots and lots of innocents, let's hope we can handle all of this now," Kyllan said.

"Let's hope we're good enough, though I doubt it has anything to do with what's to come, am I right?" Misran asked.

"I would say right on point, one can be perfect in a lot of things, but that doesn't guarantee a win, it takes a lot more when you're up against more than just an army," Alix responded, and the others looked at him, totally agreeing with him and Misran.

"You're right, it does take a lot more, we might not be perfect when it comes to a lot of things, but we better do our best, this time it's not just us who depends on our performance, it can be really pressurizing at times but if we lose, there is going to be a lot of bad things happening, ones that we might not be able to stop easily,," Adora said, and Alix gave her a sidelong glance as Ifrit smiled.

"I agree with you, we need to show that all of this training isn't for nothing, we have all gotten stronger than we were before," Alix replied, and Adora smiled before finishing her coffee and breakfast and sighed.

"Can you estimate when we'll arrive there, Scott?" Nina inquired.

"Uh... It's already been a day, so I'd say tomorrow or the next day," he replied.

Nina said, "Faster than expected, nice, thank you."

"You're welcome," he replied, smiling.

"It'll be faster than most of our trips so far, I hope we get what we came for," Zack said, and Adora glanced at him, hoping for the same.

"I hope so as well; I'm concerned," Zavis added.

"Are you going to be okay, Zavis?" He looked at Adora when she asked.

"I hope so, I am going to fight, I am no longer weak," he replied, and she sighed.

"Don't talk like that; you were never weak; you just weren't aware of it," she said.

"Thank you, Adora," he replied and she smiled.

"You're welcome, it's good if you give yourself more credit, all of you, well, I gave you all a choice and now you're here, I hope you guys get out of this too," she said, and they smiled.

"Well, we all know what we have gotten ourselves into; whatever happens next, we'll just have to deal with it the best we can, which means fighting for our and others' survival," Alix replied.

"He's right, Adora, we know why we are here, and whatever happens next is on us," Yan said, looking at Nina, who nodded.

"I agree with them," Kyris added.

"If that's the case, then let's hope this goes well; you should protect each other and yourselves, just like in training, except this will be a real fight, and you'll have to adjust," Adora replied, and they nodded.

"We will give it our best shot, rest easy, we came here at our own risk, whatever happens is not our fault," Aerav said, and Adora sighed in relief after hearing their responses because she was worried, and even that didn't make all of her tension go away.

"Stop worrying about what's going to happen, Adora; it's not going to help you," Ifrit said quietly as she lowered her head and he sighed before patting her on the shoulder.

"I know, I'm sorry," she replied.

"You don't have to apologize; none of this is your fault; let's just deal with the people who are responsible for making everyone's lives miserable," he said and she smirked.

"That's good enough for me," she replied, and he chuckled.

"Well, I'm going to open the upper deck shutters and the window, are you guys coming?" Scott inquired as he stood up.

"Sure, we cannot train in here or we will destroy the ship and we don't have anything else to do," Adora responded he walked away, and they followed him to the upper deck, where he opened the shutters and windows, allowing fresh air to enter the ship, and Alix exhaled deeply as the cold air brushed against them.
