Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 9 Speed

"Guys loosen up a bit, he is not going to eat anyone," she said as she went with the tiger inside of the castle.

'Do you think the princess is serious about helping us?" Aerav asked as the bell rang and school was dismissed for the day.

"She is serious alright" Alix responded.

"Alix how bad is your disease?" Ayden asked and he scoffed as they walked out of the yard, a black car that was well tinted was waiting for them.

"Hello," a young beautiful girl with long black hair, big boobs, and fair skin said as she came out of the car with sparkling eyes, and they left staring at her.

'A succubus" Alix said.

'Nina, yes I am, get in the car, you don't want to keep the princess waiting" she replied.

"You are right," Sarah said as they all left heading to the castle.

"She is right, I am weak, the princess hates weak people, it's been like this for me ever since I was a child, weak and simply pathetic, that's about to end because I plan to get stronger before I die and prove myself," Alix thought as he clenched his fists.

Upon arriving at the castle, they stared at the huge fancy yard and all of the guards by every entrance. it was more than just a fortress.

"You guys came," Adora said as she walked out of the castle and glanced at Alix as he came out of the car.

'Catch" she said while throwing him a sword and he grabbed onto it.

'You have got good reflexes" she said.

"Thanks that's probably the first nice thing that has come out of your mouth ever since we met" he replied and she scoffed.

'That's a bit rude" Elijah said and Alix sighed.

"Maybe" he replied.

"What's going to be their routine for today?" Elijah asked.

"Physical training, let's see their stamina, how long they can hold up for, we will start by choosing of weapons, also I want you to test their stamina, take them for a round in the mountains tomorrow morning bright and early" she responded.

'What time?" Aerav asked.

"5 am" she responded and Sarah coughed.

"What are we training for exactly? we don't want to become machines" Ayden said.

"You will listen to me if you want to win, I have no intention of wasting my time on you people, trust me I have better things to do" she replied.

? "Alix, what do you think since you are their leader?" Elijah asked.

'I think the princess's way might help us all i am thinking about is getting stronger even if i have to put up with someone like her" he responded and Adora smiled.

"He has got spirit, maybe, just maybe he can get strong even in his current state" she thought.

"Alix can you handle a sword properly?" she asked as she pointed hers at him.

'Come at me" she said as she stood still with her eyes clothes.

"Okay" he replied as he moved so fast that she could not sense his movement, as the wind blew she caught onto his scent and before he could have attacked her she sound around grabbing onto the edge of his bale and pulled it out of his hand then shoved him to the ground and he sighed.

"Don't go pouting on me, your movements.. your footwork, it's good, better than most of us, i couldn't sense you" she said and his eyes widened as he turned around to look at her.

"What are you looking at?" she asked.

"You say i am fast then?" he asked as he stood up and Elijah smiled then patted Alix on the shoulder.

'Yes that's what i am saying" she responded.

'Your friend is double weird i thought you said he didn't have any skill" the princess mumbled.

'So i thought, now we know he is not hopeless" he replied.

"Guys be prepared, your training started bright and early tomorrow morning" she said as they sighed.

"I am going to ask you this one last time, all of you, are you sure you want to do this?" Elijah asked.

'I do" Alix repodned along with the others and the knight looked at the orincess who scoffed as her mask on her face was about to blow off but she turned away and fixed it.

"Are you okay?" Elijah asked.

'Yeah, i am fine just needed to fix my mask, can't have this falling off now can i?" she asked and he smiled.

"The reasons Elijah gave me, is that the only ones why you don't want anyone seeing your face or not?" Alix asked as she stared at him then scoffed.

'What did you tell this nosy brat Elijah?" she asked.

"Nothing much, possible reasons why you cna't take the mask off, he got curious after bumping onto you" he responded and she sighed.

'Place your curiosity into training, that needs it more, do research, help yourself get better, never done on anyone" she said with a cold gaze and Alix downed his head.

"Do you think my speed can be of good use in a battle in the ring?" Alix asked.

'That really does deond on you, but yes it can be especially to those who does not know about it at all" she responded.

'I see, well i will work hard to get stronger, i don't know when i might die but i don't want to die weak" he said in a serious tone and the princess smiled.

"Oh i see, this ought to be interesting , the weak fella has a lot of guts, seems like he doesn't know when to give up, that stubbornness might be a turning point for this brat," she thought.

"You guys go on home, i want you back here on time tomorrow, if you don't arrive on time to train then you will face a terrible punishment" Elijah said as they smiled and got back into the car then left.
