When Adora finished taking her bath, she got dressed then exited the bathroom. Alix glanced at her and she looked at him then he got up and approached her.

Alix placed Adora to sit down on the bed and he grabbed the brush and she glanced at him as he brushed her hair and a gentle smile appeared on her face then he pecked her on her cheeks and they flushed as her eyes shimmered.

"Your hair smells nice, strawberry like, let it dry now, no knot, I am going to freshen up, I will meet you for breakfast," he said as he walked away from her and she clutched her chest then her eyes glowed and the star marking appeared in them.

"How long will this last for?" she mumbled before sighing and leaving the room.

Adora went to the living room and the others looked at her then she smiled at them "Good morning."

"Good morning, Adora," they replied.

"Where is Alix?" Aerav asked and she glanced at him.

"He will be here in a few, he went to freshen up," she responded and he smiled at her.

"Inalia will be here for breakfast in a few, what a troublesome woman, good morning guys," Nova said as he entered the house and they laughed.

"Good morning," they replied, then he took a seat beside Ifrit.

While sitting near Ifrit, Nova glanced at him and Ifrit smiled, the young man's eyes narrowed and Adora glanced at them.

"Good morning, everyone," Inalia said when she entered the living room.

"Good morning," they replied.

"Did you guys sleep well last night?" the girl asked and Adora held onto her lower back before smiling and nodding.

"Good, breakfast will be here in a few minutes," she said after sitting down and Adora braced her head back on the couch.

After a few minutes, Alix came to the living room and he greeted the others and then looked at Adora before approaching her.

"Are you okay?" he asked and she opened her eyes and looked at him as he sat beside her.

"Yeah, I am fine," she responded with a smile on her face and at the same time, Inalia's friends brought them breakfast and placed everything on the table, they thanked them then they left.

"Go ahead and have your breakfast, you guys have a lot to talk about today," Inalia said as they took their food and Adora lowered her head.

'I have a bad feeling about this,' Ifrit thought as he glanced at Adora and Alix then exhaled deeply and they began eating their food.

While they were eating, Inalia glanced at Adora then she sighed.

"Princess, he has not arrived as yet," Inalia said and Adora stopped eating immediately, then she took out her phone and called someone but there was no answer.

"There is no answer, don't worry, he made a promise, he won't break it, this is his duty and he will be here even with his last breath," she replied and Inalia smiled at her and Adora clenched her right fist then Alix held onto her hand and she looked at him.

"Relax," he said and her cheeks flushed, then she turned away from him and Ifrit and Nina smiled when they saw that and Adora continued eating her breakfast.

After they finished eating, they looked at Adora and she smiled at them.

"We want to show you guys a few other things before you start with the past, will you come with us?" Nova asked as they stood up and Adora gnashed her teeth and Alix glanced at her.

"Sure, we don't mind," Adora responded.

"Well, seems like everything will be at our front door soon enough," Nina said as she approached Adora and was about to wrap her hand around her waist and Adora smiled nervously.

Alix grabbed onto Nina's hand and she looked at him and he smiled.

"Please don't," he said and Adora exhaled deeply, but then realized that Alix knew she was in a bit of pain.

"Why?" Nina asked and Adora's face turned red as Alix was about to say something and she didn't want him to even lie.

"No reason," Adora responded as she pulled Alix away from Nina and behind her.

He and Nina looked at her and a smile appeared on his face as he placed his arm around her shoulder.

"Hmm, I will let it go for now, you two enjoy yourself," Nina said with a grin as she walked away and Alix chuckled as Adora looked at him, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Why are you red?" Kyris asked and Adora flinched, then Alix and Nina as well as Ifrit laughed.

"N- Nothing, let's go," she responded as she walked away. Kyris looked at Alix and he shrugged then they left the house.

"Where are we going?" Eliza asked.

"A place where some of the creatures here are living," Nova responded and they looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

"How many are there?" Kyllan and Zack asked and Alix chuckled, then grabbed onto Adora's arm and she looked back at him.

"Will you be able to walk?" he asked quietly and she smiled at him.

"So you are worried, don't worry, I will manage," she responded and he sighed.

"There are quite a lot of different types of creatures," Inalia said and they smiled at her and Adora kept on holding on to Alix's hand and he scoffed.

"All right, let's go," Nova said as they walked away and they followed them.

While walking, a red glow surrounded Ifrit just after he exited the town and his body glowed red and the warriors there, surrounded him and two of them were about to attack him.

Adora's and Alix's swords appeared in their hands and their blades clashed with the ones that were about to attack him, blocking their attack and the others left staring.

"He is a greater demon, who are you?" the person asked and Adora pushed the person away as did Alix and Ifrit looked at them as the warriors glared at him.

"Don't even think about touching him and you won't like the outcome, listen before even raising your blades," Adora said as her eyes lit up while staring at them.
