Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 95 Captain's Offer

After Kyris left, Alix went into his apartment, and the first thing he did was freshen up because he was feeling very uncomfortable and his hand was aching him even more than before.

When he finished, he ordered dinner and when it arrived, Alix had a good meal before going to bed to rest, knowing he had pushed himself more than usual and needed rest.

The next morning when Alix woke up, he stretched off but instead of his pain going away it was just worst, little did he know, the darkness in his heart got a bit stronger after the fight.

"Damn, I really need to do something about this, the hit I got wasn't that bad to cause this much pain in my arm, I'm going to meet with Kyris, maybe he can do something about it," Alix said as he stood up and began his morning routine.

After Alix was finished, he went to get the keys to his bike but remembered he couldn't ride it, so he took the train to the castle instead.

When Alix arrived at the castle, he saw the captain, who he was supposed to fight coming out of a car, both of them sighed and went into the castle, where Alix saw everyone was in the living room.

"Alix, you made it," Sarah said as she approached him, and he smiled.

"Good morning, and I am sorry but I am a little confused here; what do you mean by made it?" he questioned.

"Good morning, we messaged you this morning to meet us here, isn't that why you're here?" she asked.

"No, I came here to meet Kyris, I didn't check my messages this morning, let me check," he said as he took out his phone and saw Sarah's messages about a meeting.

"I didn't see, but since I am here now, it shouldn't be a problem," he said as they sat down and the captain looked at him.

"I assume you know why I'm here?" the captain asked.

"Are you talking about your match with Alix?" Kyris questioned.

"Yeah, I can't fight him," he replied, and Alix smiled.

"Are you concerned about your reputation and what it would look like if you lost?" Alix asked, hitting a nerve and the guy scoffed.

"There is no way I would lose, but it won't look good on the captain's, I should have thought about it before accepting, I- I am sorry," the captain said as he lowered his head, and Alix sighed as everyone looked at him, waiting for his response.

"Did yesterday's match put us in the finals?" Alix questioned.

"Yeah, it did, I got the update this morning, there will be a royal rumble, then the semi-finals, and the winner of the royal rumble will go up against last year's royal rumble winner, who is now on last year's tournament winning team."

"They have four members equal and with his record, he is not going to lose, so in the end, you guys get to fight last year's Victor's, who wins, that's up to the teams, though the semi-final and final will be held in another kingdom," Kyris said, and the others looked at each other, concerned.

"So, what did the people with lots of potentials who participated in this tournament get?" Ayden questioned.

"Those who have really good abilities and a lot of potential got recruited by good people, some got a lot of money from the fight they won, it's a win-win situation, some made names for themselves and joined great teams, and those who deserved it got good opportunities," the captain replied, and Alix smirked.

"I get it, and I don't mind not getting to fight you because we're already making a name for ourselves," Alix explained.

"Is that it? You have no issues?" the captain asked and Kyris chuckled.

"That's how they are, well you better leave it at that before they demand something that even you can't give, they made the finals with effort, so that's good enough for them," Kyris said as the guy stood up.

"After the semi-finals which will be held in the next kingdom along with the royal rumble, forgot to mention that, the people will be eager to hear who will be fighting the champions, that is when we will announce your names, not that it is official, what happens after that is up to you guys," the captain said before leaving.

"So the winner of the Royal Rumble will be the champion's teammate, that's for sure; the team in the semi-final will also face the champions, but because they are monstrous they will win again, leaving you guys; I am sure the champions saw your match; you are a new team that's catching eyes."

"Make new moves, fight differently, fight in styles you have never fought in before, the finals are always epic because you will be facing one member each, that's how the finals are done, the champions keep a close eye on rising teams, after all, they are the black dragons," Kyris said.

"It is going to be a lot worse than yesterday's fight; is there any word on when we will be leaving for the next kingdom?" Alix asked.

"Not yet, but you guys have plenty of time, you'll get better, train, and even after that, the finals will take a while to arrive, we need to inform the princess about the change," Kyris replied.

"When will she return?" Aerav questioned.

"It's been a while, she didn't say when so we don't know when, she didn't want to go, Adora wanted to stay for the match, but things happen, not everything goes the way you want it to, not even for the princess, well guys, enough stressing, come on, let's have breakfast, I assume you guys are hungry right?" Kyris asked as he stood up.

"I know I am," Alix replied.

"So are we, I could use something really energetic right now," Ayden said and they laughed as they walked to the dining hall for breakfast.
