Chapter 481 Soon

Adora's eyes widened as she turned around and a black space opened up before them and a guy came out, one who she as well as the others, recognized to be a commander and they sensed the presence that placed them all of alert, within the portal, knowing the leader was somewhere behind it. 

"He is there..." Alix mumbled as his eyes glowed brightly and Adora glanced at him then she looked at the commander. 

"What are you doing here, huh?" Adora asked as she stepped forward and he looked at her and his brows furrowed as a sword appeared in her hand. 

"Adora, don't, now is not the time," Ifrit said and she scoffed. 

"The time, huh? When is ever the right time? Answer me, what are you doing here?" she asked as she pointed to his deceased mate and his brows furrowed as he stared at him. 

"What the hell? You did this?" he asked. 

"You guys are coming for us anyway, why should I hold off on killing you? Give me a reason, I don't care who comes in my way right now, I will kill them right there," she responded with a piercing look in her eyes. 

'What's wrong with her right about now? I it really just anger or more? We cannot act rashily right about now,' Alx thought. 

"So, you killed them, well if it was up to me princess, I would go at you right now, but I have been warned already, well the time is near as well, let's see how long you guys will be able to hang on for," he said and she glanced at him with her eyes narrowed. 

"We know the time to end this all is near but," she replied as she moved fast and his eyes narrowed as he turned around and he noticed blood dripping on the ground as she beside him. 

"You... You will see soon enough Adora, he won't ignore you either," he said as they saw that his hand was slashed at the side. 

Adora felt the gaze upon her strengthen and her yes widened then she turned around and Alix stepped forward and he scoffed. 

'Something just doesn't feel right about this part, what are they up to? If only he would show his face, that bastard...' Alix thought and Adora exhaled deeply then lowered her gaze as she felt the energy, slightly pulling on her. 

'W- What the hell is this? This guy....' she thought as she gritted her teeth then clenched her fists. 

"Your Highness, you still have a few minutes left to give an official answer, I suggest you choose wisely and lives will be spared, or you can all just go to the pits of hell together," he said and Adora placed her sword by the arm she glanced at her with a smirk on his face.

"Are you sure you guys are that different princess?" he asked and her eyes narrowed as she stared at him. 

"What did you say?" she asked as he picked up the dead body from the ground and began walking away as the others looked on, wanting to get rid of him but knew that it would be best to let him leave, for they would return soon. 

'Tick tock, tick tock, your time is slowly but surely running out, he will come and let's see who will be able to face him..." the guy said as he sensed a different aura coming from Alix, which caught his attention for a split second. 

He looked around to see who it was coming from, but Alix had realized and fixed himself before the guy could realize it was him. 

Alix had no intention of letting him leave alive, but knew it wouldn't make any sense to kill him at the time, for a war was coming and it was just a few minutes away. 

'Why? Why is this only getting worse, I am not sure how long I can keep this up anymore, I am tired...' she said as she began seeing double as she looked at Alix, who glanced at her and the guy left the area, through the portal. 

"Do you really think that you will be able to defeat me?" a voice asked before the portal disappeared and Alix gritted his teeth then Adora's sword disappeared. 

"Adora..." Aragi mumbled and she looked at him then sighed before approaching him as well as Mika's sister. 

"I am sorry for your loss, Mika was my responsibility as well, I wasn't there," she said as she bowed her head and the girl flinched as the others looked on and Adora gritted her teeth. 

"I am sorry, this was because of me as well, all of the teams are part of my responsibility as well, I am sorry," Alix added as he bowed his head, beside Adora and her eyes widened as she looked at him. 

"Alix...." she mumbled. 

"It's true, this is my responsibility as well, so you are," he said and she walked away from there then Mai grabbed onto her hand. 

"You guys don't have to apologize, we did this because it's to save everyone, it's only their fault, please don't apologize," she said. 

"She is right, everyone agreed to doing this on their own accord, to fight and live free than to sign their life under someone who will control everything, everyone did this for the sake of what they love, they took a fighting chance and now things are different, don't apologize," the king said. 

"Still..." Alix mumbled. 

"None of this is fine, I hate it," Adora mumbled but no one heard nor no one knew what was going on in her mind. 

"You guys need healing, let's return to the castle and look after all of you, come on," Xemon said. 

"I am fine, you guys go ahead," Adora replied as she walked away and the king along with Alix glanced at her. 

"What is wrong with her? She is acting weird, now more than ever," Alix said and at the same time, the air got heavy and a portal appeared behind Adora. 

"You should be a little more careful," someone said as a whip like thing came out from the portal and grabbed onto her. 

"Adora," Alix called out and the king's eyes widened.
