Rise of the Malactric Heir

"This won\'t hold me, not now or ever, but your power is great, it\'s just being used for the wrong purpose," Adora said as a snake formation appeared in her eyes and her body began glowing black, breaking free of his darkness, and he gasped as she glared at him.

"T- That\'s impossible," he said as her sword glowed black.

"The look in her eyes is that of a pure killer," Alix muttered as the others stared at her.

"What on earth is going on here?" Vellon inquired, and Adora scoffed.

"Vellon, tell your master that I have a trump card, and I will not let him win. Also, tell him how many minions you lost tonight, and I am sure he will be thrilled," Adora said.

"Kill her," the guy yelled as all of the guys in the hoods rushed toward Adora and Alix\'s eyes glowed bright red as Adora stood there looking at them but before the one who appeared behind her could touch her, he suddenly lost both of his legs and Adora\'s eyes widened as Alix stood before her and Kyris swallowed deeply.

"Don\'t touch her," Alix said in a cold tone.

\'Who the hell is that boy?\' Vellon wondered, and Adora sighed as she leapt into the air, placing her sword before her, and looked down at the others as the guys in the hood surrounded her.

"You should have said goodbye to the ones you love," Adora said as chains wrapped around her body and dark whips slashed her on her right arm then wrapped it tightly.

"I\'ll kill them," Alix said, and Adora chuckled as she slashed the chains with her sword and the dark whips vanished from her grasp. As the enemies were about to strike, Adora moved so quickly that when she landed on the floor, all anyone could see were the bodies falling behind her, and Vellon\'s eyes trembled.

"They are dead, retreat, we will come back for him another day, and that\'s when you will lose Adora, master has a few surprises for you," Vellon said, and Adora\'s eyes glowed purple as Vellon and his minions left.

"They were slashed apart, the guy with the darkness control lost both of his arms," Yan explained as the barriers vanished and Adora gazed at the man bleeding to death in front of her.

"Who\'s your master?" she inquired.

"If you tell me, I might be able to give you another chance at life," she said.

"I- I would have told you.... but he would have killed me too... it\'s better to die here," he said, tears streaming down his cheeks as he took his final breath.

"Damn it," Adora exclaimed as blood ran down her arm and Alix grabbed her and lifted her up.

"He is dead, it doesn\'t matter," Alix said, while she looked down at the blood on his sword.

"That was your first kill, how did that feel Alix?" she asked while her body went back to normal and he lowered his head, clenching the sword tightly.

"I felt relieved, it got me angry when they were just doing what they wanted," he said as Zavis rushed to her and hugged her tightly, and she sighed as she wrapped her arms around him.

"This isn\'t over, Zavis, it\'s not even close, I think we just made a mistake too, though I don\'t feel scared at all despite their master being someone terrible, we now know that everything is his doing, including the genome editing," Adora said before Zavis rose off of her and Niya gripped his arm tightly.

"You are bleeding," Alix said, and Adora smiled as she looked at her arm.

"It\'s fine, let\'s go back to the castle," she said, and Kyris gave Adora a worried look as she glanced at him.

"Teleport us back, please," she said, and a large blue formation formed under their feet, and they were all back in the castle\'s living room in less than a minute.

"I apologize for the match, guys," Zavis said.

"Is a match more important than your life?" Alix asked and Zavis\'s eyes widened as he stared at the boy who had a very serious and scary expression.

"Calm down, Alix, but he\'s right Zavis, you guys can watch it online when you\'re ready, but for now, you guys have dinner," Adora said.

"I want an explanation for not letting us help you, and you are not leaving without answering me either," Kyris said, and Adora looked at him.

"You guys have powers they don\'t really know about I knew I could handle it and can handle more than that, you guys will get to do whatever you want soon enough, tonight\'s fight was nothing, you would have just wasted perfectly good energy unnecessarily," she responded and he sighed.

"Is that a valid reason?" she asked.

"In a way," he replied before she patted his shoulder and he looked at her arm.

"I am going to my room; uncle, could you please send me food and possibly ice cream if you have any?" Adora asked.

"We do, and it will be with you in a few minutes," he replied, lowering his head alongside the queen, Niya, and Zavis.

"W-what are you guys up to?" she questioned, and Alix smiled.

"Thank you," they said and Adora sighed.

"You are most welcome," she replied while walking away and Alix sat down with the others in the living room while the maids brought them dinner.

"How fast are you thinking these days, Alix?" "You were pretty quick back there," Kyllan noted.

"I suppose it\'s just my instincts," he said.

"That, and the fact that you\'re becoming more powerful at a rapid pace," Kyris explained, as Alix sighed.

"Perhaps," he replied, taking his food and started eating while Adora collected her food and desert from the maid, closed the door, and placed the tray of things on the table in her room, then removed her mask along with the top she was wearing then looked at her arm.

"He got me good," she smirked, recalling Vellon\'s expression when she was attacked.
