Rise of the Malactric Heir

After they sat down, Nina as well as Scott and the others brought the food as well as drinks for everyone to drink then they sat down and everyone began taking what they wanted to eat.

When they began eating, Adora glanced at them and sighed before taking a sip from her glass of juice and Ifrit glanced at her before tapping her on the shoulder and she glanced at him then he smiled at her.

"I am sorry," he said.

"It's okay, what's done is done and there is nothing that any of us can do about that Ifrit, we have to accept reality as it is and the only thing we can focus on is moving forward after that, you told me that before, I hope you do remember that," she replied and he lowered his head then sighed and nodded.

Adora patted Ifrit on the shoulder and he glanced at her and she smiled at him.

"You don't have to feel bad about anything Ifrit, we were supposed to be on the lookout for something like what happened but... sometimes we are just too powerless to stop it, that's the position I was in at the time and not only then, I was powerless to stop more than one death but...." she added and Ifrit swallowed.

"What are you going to do now Adora?" he asked and she scoffed.

"Killing him was never my destiny, it's someone else's but I will tell you what I will do, I will kill anyone that works for him, I am not going to question them, whether they are not or not, I will not ask, I will not give them a chance to kill another, I am sorry, Ifrit but I am not sure I will be able to keep all of my promises," she responded and his eyes trembled as he and Alix saw the hunger look in Adora's eyes.

"Adora, what is it that you wanted to tell us?" Alix asked and she looked at him then smiled.

"I have a lot of stories to tell you guys, starting with I killed many that worked for him, especially those whom I bumped into and didn't care about the innocent lives their boss took, they won't talk because he is right, I didn't spare them another minute, even I have my demons and I don't want you guys to all think that I am pure good, I am not," she responded.

"I don't think any of us here is pure goo Adora, not even me, I have my demons as well but what you did, I don't see it as wrong, some people might say that I might need to clean my eyes but I don't, they deserved it," Alix said and she chuckled.

"Thanks Alix, I can tell you that the demons you have to carry, it's bigger than mine soon you will find out why as well, I will let you guys know that the last heir to the malactrics is alive," she replied and they all left staring at her.

"Are you serious?" Kyllan asked and she glanced at him.

"Yes, he is still alive, he was saved, he has many different purposes, and right now he is living like a somewhat normal person, the leader of the enemies now knows that and he will try connecting to him, we can't find the heir but things will fall into line because he will awaken before your eyes, please don't ask me who he is, that's not for me to tell you, I will tell you what's mine to tell," she responded and Kyllan exhaled deeply.

"Then Vellon knew this, he was going to tell us something right before he died, I wonder what that may have been," Serina said.

"We won't know for now but maybe when every truth is out, maybe then we will know what he wanted to tell us," Alix replied.

"This story is going to get a bit more complicated, isn't it, Adora?" Zack asked and she looked at him.

"Yes, it will become a lot more complicated than it already is, on the night my mother died and I got Ifrit as a part of myself, the leader connected through the enemy he had sent and spoke to me," she responded and Alix's eyes narrowed.

"What did he say to you at such a young age?" Alix asked.

"One of the reasons I also got stronger is because he told me I was weak and he would just be wasting his time if he killed me, he said I am also one of the reasons my mother died, he said he will spare my life, that way maybe my mother would suffer more in her grave knowing she is the reason I will have to live with seeing her die before my eyes, suffer, he said that we will all bow to him and maybe I might end up coming to be of some use to him in the future, he said he doesn't care if I end up pursuing the truth and if I do become a threat, I will lose things close to me," she responded and Alix's eyes began glowing slight red.

"That's mean, that's just beyond heartless," Sarah said and Adora smiled.

"No, it wasn't, he was right at first, I was weak, knew nothing about myself, I had to lose something to gain the rest, he had only told me the truth," she replied and Alix gnashed his teeth as Adora's eyes began closing and the memories of the past came flashing before her eyes, the ones that were a part of the truth and the ones that she had to tell them which would only bring hurt and darkness.

Adora began feeling sleepy since it was already late in the night and the others looked at each other before returning their attention to her and she yawned.

"Adora, are you okay?" Alix asked.

"Yeah, just a minute, I will continue, there is a lot more to tell you guys," she responded and he sighed.

"That's enough for one night, it's already past midnight, you can continue later on in the day, there is time, we know that there is a lot more you need to tell us, it's too much to talk in one night," he said and the others nodded in agreement with him then he got up and lifted her up in his arm since she had slept away.
