Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 295 More Time

"I get it, now I'm just more curious, but I'll wait until after what happens with this crystal to ask more," he said and she smiled.

"That's your right, no one will stop you," she replied, as he gazed up at the moon.

"So what about you, Adora?" he inquired, and she lowered her head.

"What about me, Alix?" she asked.

"You have many dangerous and dark secrets don't you?" he asked.

"I'm not going to deny it," she responded.

"I know you won't, tell us when you are ready, that can be bad for you, looking at how you talk about it, it's more of a burden to you isn't it?" he asked.

"Always so keen, yes, it is a burden, but it is one that I must bear until a certain point," she responded.

"You can be stronger with your teams, helping you with that," he said and she smiled.

"Including you?" she inquired, to which he scoffed.

"You like pulling my legs don't you?" he asked.

"It's fun, your reactions to certain things can be the best, especially when I call you a pervert," she replied, his eyes narrowing as he looked at her.

"You will pay for these things sooner or later," he said, and she smiled.

"We'll see about that, let's see what you're really capable of, Alix," she replied and he sighed.

"We'll see," he said, "your royal highness."

"Don't say it like that," she replied and he smirked.

"Like what?" he inquired, and she punched him on the arm.

"You can throw a good right, that's nice, are you ready to go back inside? It's just after midnight," he said and she sighed.

"Do we have to go back?" she asked, and he fixed his gaze on her.

"Not really, you don't have to," he responded, and she sighed before looking at him and standing up.

"Well, we can't possibly stay up here," she said as she flew back into her room with the minute she was allowed to use, followed by him, before closing the window and looking at him.

"Thank you once more, Alix," she said.

"You're welcome again, Adora, and good night," he replied.

"Good night," she said as he left to go to his room to get some sleep and she locked the door, turned off the lights, and took a deep breath before getting into bed where she felt at ease, and Adora fell asleep quickly without any problems or having to listen to any music.

When Adora awoke in the morning, she smiled and stretched before getting out of bed and going to freshen up.

After finishing, the girl dressed and went to the living room.

"Good morning," they said as she sat next to Nina.

"Good morning," she replied when Scott approached them and she looked at him.

"Good morning, guys, I have good news, in a way," Scott said, and they all looked at him.

"Good morning, what news?" Alix asked.

"We will be arriving at our destination in two hours," he responded and they smiled.

"Really?" Adora inquired, and he nodded.

"Yes, and I've even found us a place to land, it'll be by water in a remote part of the kingdom, no one will know we are there, and the ship will go underwater as well," he replied as they stared at him.

"Underwater?" Adora asked.

"Yeah, another addition to the ship's talents, that's another reason we took so long to build this ship, it's just like I said, it's one of a kind, do you want it to go underwater?" Scott asked.

"Will we get soaked going in and out?" Kyris inquired.

"No, once the ship is submerged, a barrier forms around it, moving the water away from the ship, and I can open the doors or anything else when we want and we're ready to go," he responded.

"That sounds good to me," Alix said, and the others agreed.

"All right, then this matter is settled, underwater it is; you guys did an excellent job with this ship, and I am sure m..." Adora said as her eyes shook and the others looked at her then she lowered her head and gnashed her teeth.

"Adora," Ifrit said and she sighed, then looked at him and smiled.

"It's nothing, Ifrit, let's just have breakfast and then get ready to land soon," she replied, and his brow furrowed as he approached her, placed his hand on her shoulder, and smiled.

"All right, guys, let's get eating, I'm hungry too," he said, and they laughed then brought out breakfast, which they all took and began eating.

Adora sighed as she ate, knowing there were still things bothering her, and it wasn't getting any easier now that the enemy was their main problem, the ones she was now certain wrecked havoc in their lives.

They were now all determined to take down the enemy, even if it meant a bloodbath, or else they would lose everything they cared about.

"Alix, doing fine?" Adora asked and he looked at her and then smiled.

"Yeah, just fine, just going to learn more control, my main target, other than a head," he responded and Adora's eyes narrowed.

'Head? I am pretty sure I just heard him say head, whose head is he aiming for?' Adora wondered.

"Earth to Adora," Alix said, and they laughed, then she scoffed at him.

"What?" she asked.

"We're right here," he replied and she sighed.

'Not having anything to lose, a lot would have preferred to live that way, but that's just boring and it's naturally hard to lock the ones you care about out, now, a lot is on the line,' Adora thought as she was about to drink her coffee when he noticed her cup was empty and she realized she hadn't made any for herself.

"You've got to be kidding," she muttered.

"Hey," Alix said, passing her a cup of coffee, which she accepted with a smile.

"Thank you," she said.

"You are welcome, stop getting lost," he replied with a smirk before finishing off his breakfast and she sipped the coffee he had made for her.
