Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 319 Still Evolving

Adora smirked as she waited for Alix and noticed her hand glowing red and blue.

'I guess being on edge is going to force open that gate, the twin stars, that gate adds power, it makes you stronger but can also destroy you from within, my powers are nothing more than destructive despite that, I am glad Alix is much stronger that then, if there is something worse than destruction, he is it,' she thought before sitting down on the couch and turning on the television, looking for something to watch while eating since she was tired and wanted to relax despite her body still hurting a bit.

Adora finally found something to watch after some searching, and at the same time, Alix and Ifrit entered her room, and she looked at them as they sat down with her and he placed the ice creams on the table.

"Are you feeling better?" Ifrit asked.

"Yes, I am thanks to Alix," she responded and Ifrit smiled.

"That's great to hear, Alix, you have grown a lot stronger since you first joined the team, you've all evolved, to be honest, and you're all still evolving, I can't wait to see how far you guys can go, it'll be a sight to see, and thanks for helping her," Ifrit said, and Alix smiled.

"Thank you, and you're welcome; besides, I don't think you need to thank me," Alix responded, and Adora sighed as she looked at the two.

"You two would make a great team," she said, and they both looked at her.

"Good team?" Ifrit inquired.

"Yeah, fighting together, I think that would be perfect if you two want, you can also train together," Adora replied, and they exchanged glances before Alix sighed.

"What do you have to say to that, Alix?" Ifrit asked.

"I don't mind, I'd be glad to train with you, you're more experienced in fighting than I am, it'd be a good opportunity to gain more experience," Alix responded, and Ifrit smiled.

"Well, I agree with that," Adora said, and Ifrit sighed.

"Well, I agree we'll make a good duo, we can train together now and then because I'm also training with Aerav, Adora this team is literally growing really fast, I never thought they'd evolve at this rate but they've all surpassed my expectations," Ifrit replied and she nodded.

"Well, now that that's settled, you can join us Ifrit, we have nothing to do, everyone is relaxing," Alix said and Ifrit looked at both of them and then smirked.

"Nope, I am not going to join you guys, sorry, but right now I think I would rather be in my bed sleeping, I am more comfortable that way and besides, I am pretty tired, but thanks for inviting me, good night, you two and try to get some sleep, damn it," he replied as he stood up and they smiled.

"Good night," they replied, before he left and Alix closed the door before joining Adora in front of the television to eat their ice cream while watching a movie.

Adora noticed Alix looking at her while they were watching the movie and turned to face him.

"Would you like to ask me something?" she asked, and he sighed.

"I had a family great enough to make an impression on you, right?" he asked as she stared at him before smiling.

"Yes, you did, they are great, that I assure you of but they were also very dangerous, however, you were loved by both your mother and father, dearly Alix," she responded as he stared at her then lowered his head and smiled.

"What's the matter, Alix?" she inquired, and he sighed.

"It's nothing, thank you for telling me," he responded and she clenched her right fist, wanting to tell him everything but forcefully held herself back.

"Don't thank me just yet, more of your past will be revealed, you may not like it, but it's a reality that you must accept no matter what, even though if you get angrier than ever, now stop worrying and enjoy the movie or go to sleep, whatever pleases you," she said with a smile, and he glanced at her then smiled.

"Right now, I'd rather enjoy the movie, it's going nice so far so that's good, I just hope I don't sleep awa here," he replied, and she chuckled as they finished their ice cream and continued watching the movie.

Later that night, after they had finished eating and watching the movie, Adora turned and saw Alix had slept away on the couch and she smiled before turning off the television, cleaning up, then pressing the button by the side of the couch and it opened up into the shape of a bed large enough for Alix to sleep comfortably in, then she covered him with a blanket and placed a pillow under his head.

After she finished, the girl smiled as she looked at his sleeping face.

"You look really peaceful when you sleep sometimes Alix, I wish we all had a normal life, where we could have been happy, even if it was just once, I want us to have a normal, good and happy day now, but I'm starting to wonder whether that's even possible with how things are now," she said as she climbed into bed, covered herself with her blanket, and turned off the lights.

After more than an hour, Adora had finally fallen asleep.

That night, many thoughts ran through their heads, but they all had one goal in mind, and they planned to work their hardest to make it happen, even if the chances were slim.

The next morning, when Adora woke up, she saw Alix was still sleeping and she smiled then got up and stretched off, but she noticed her hand was still aching but despite that, it was almost healed.

Adora went towards Alix and looked at him as he slept, then smiled and moved his hand from before his eyes and due to how cold her hand was, it caused Alix to wake up and the first thing he saw was her face and he smirked as she stared at him.
