Rise of the Malactric Heir

Chapter 316 Got Away



"She's going for the kill," Kyris said, frowning.

"Don't make that face, Kyris, you are stronger than a lot, something else that wasn't here at first cast the barrier to keep us from getting to Adora, it's more powerful than us even if I manage to break the barrier, something else might be here," Alix said as Kyris stared at him, then Kyris smiled with the others and the barrier finally started cracking.

"Keep doing what you're doing and don't stop," Kyris said as Alix maintained his focus on the barrier, which was difficult because he was also concerned about Adora.

"Come at me again, and I will kill you," Adora said as she, Vellon, and the others sensed a heavy presence in the area.

"Vellon, use the last plan, she is serious, we can't afford to lose any of you guys here, if you don't, I wiill come myself and she won't return to her friends, not that you care but still," someone said to him, and Vellon smirked.

"Perhaps this will help you make a decision," Vellon said as he approached Adora, and she was about to let go of the spikes when he appeared beside her and whispered something in her ear, and her eyes widened as her body began to glow bright red, and black vine wrapped around her hands, tying them together, and she stared, remembering her mother's death.

'I failed them, mother,' she thought as she was lifted into the air by the vines.

"Adora, get out of here," someone in her head said, and her eyes began to glow blue as she grasped the vine and looked at Vellon.

"I will kill you," she said, and he chuckled as flames caught on the vines, slightly burning her arms, and a barrier formed between her and the crystal, causing her to lose her grip on it.

"Alix, it's breaking," Eliza said, and with a loud crash, Alix ripped the barrier open.

"You guys stay here," he said as he jumped out of the ship, and they exchanged glances as a portal opened beside the crystal, sucking it in, and both she and Alix sensed something dark within it that sucked in the crystal, before the portal closed and Adora sighed.

"Now that we got what we came here for, all of your friends in the ship efforts went down the drain, I have to say, they are fighters, and they will be of good use in the future, take her as well, we are leaving," Vellon said.

"I'm not going anywhere with any of you; I'm going to kill all of you after what you did," Adora said as she released the spikes and they began dodging them as Alix grabbed onto the vine with his clawed armor and ripped them off of her. He caught her by her waist as she looked at him then released the small balls causing explosions as he flew up in the air with her and went into the ship which took off with speed as Vellon looked on and then sighed.

"They're going to be more of a problem in the future than we think, they have all gotten stronger, that one among them though, Alix, he managed to hurt me and they managed to hurt you guys, it's true whether you like it or not, they can kill us just like we can kill them, that's the reality, we have a lot to do, we're done here, let's go," he said as they left and the others looked at Adora as she looked at Alix who smiled at her and Kyris began headling her arm.

"Are you all right?" Zavis asked, and Adora smiled as she looked at him.

"Yeah, I am fine, sorry guys," she said and they all looked at her.

"Why are you apologizing?" Alix asked.

"I placed us in this situation and now even the crystal is gone, because of me," she responded.

"That's not true, do you think we blame you?" Alix asked and she looked at him as his eyes narrowed.

"He's correct," Ayden said.

"No one blames you Adora, things like this happen," Kyris said as Adora clenched her right fist.

"Still, I am sorry," she replied and they smiled, then Alix patted her on the shoulder and she glanced at him.

"It's not your fault, don't beat yourself up about it, though that situation was off and there were two other unknown presences there, one really dark and strong," Alix said and Adora gnashed her teeth.

"I know," she replied as Alix sat beside her, and they both sighed as the others took their places at the table and chairs on the upper deck where they were.

"I know what that could be, one of the presence, the one who was by the portal," Adora said as she tried to stand up but nearly fell and Alix grabbed onto her.

"You are taking time to heal, I am sorry," Kyris said then she patted him on the shoulder.

"It's fine, you don't have to apologize, it's dark energy," she replied before he sighed and stood up.

"One of the things there might have been one of those involved in my mother's death, I'm not sure," she said with a smile, and they all stared at her as Alix's grip on her waist tightened and she glanced at him, her eyes shook when she saw how scary his eyes looked.

"Are you certain?" Alix inquired.

"No, I'm not sure, I won't be sure unless I am able to clearly see, I couldn't see anything because of the portal but I sensed a presence," she replied, and he scoffed.

"This conversation does not end here or there; we all have a lot to discuss, but I'm curious, Adora, what do you think about Vellon's actions?" Alix asked, and she sighed, but she didn't answer Alix's question, she knew something was wrong, but it wasn't something that could be easily solved, and they all knew that, Alix then placed her on one of the chairs to sit as the sun went down and the sky darkened as the stars began to appear, and Scott looked at them and sighed.
