After a few minutes, everyone returned to the castle and the king exhaled deeply as he held onto his head and Adora glanced at him then her brows furrowed and she clenched her fist as her mother's death flashed before her eyes.

Xemon stepped forward and he tapped the king on his shoulder and he looked at the young man, who smiled at him.

"All those who need healing, please come," he said as he went into the castle and everyone took a seat in the living room and Xemon sighed then he began to heal the king.

"Adora," Aragi said as he was about to approach her and she placed her hand on his shoulder then he lowered his head.

"Don't apologize, just go get yourself healed, what's done is done, nothing we can do to change it, this is a reality I accepted a long time ago, though, I am sorry," she replied and his eyes widened as she bowed her head and her father glanced at her.

"Please don't bow your head to me, there is no need for you to apologize," he said and she looked up at him then he exhaled deeply and she smiled at him.

"I see, but still, I will," she replied and his brows furrowed and he was about to say something else and Nina tapped him on his shoulder and he looked at her.

"Kyris healed me, go get yourself healed, let her breathe a little, I think she needs to right about now," Nina said and Adora's eyes narrowed then Aragi nodded and he went to Xemon to heal him.

As everyone was taking turns healing, the demon lord approached the king and he looked at them, then smiled.

"How can I help you?" the king asked.

"I am sorry about earlier today, a lot is happening right now, we are all working on the strategies that we came up with, each race within this city, is working on something, countermeasures; there is still quite a lot of work that needs to be done, but it will be, for now, I think you guys should rest," he responded.

Both the king and the demon lord, as well as the other leaders, looked at Alix as well as the team and they sighed, knowing that they were young and had quite a burden on their shoulder, one that they were supposed to get rid of and they knew that.

"They are too young... I don't want to see their future ruined because of us..." the king said.

"I know, but you know it's not our fault either, this was not an outcome we were expecting either," the woman replied and the king sighed.

"That's why, I am going to bring forth that which I need to in order to help win, I don't care how powerful he is, he is going to pay the price," the demon lord said with a piercing look in his eyes and Alix glanced at them then smiled.

'They all seem quite stressed about all of this and it's only natural since this situation is getting bad and if we don't win that fight, it's all over, I have to make sure we do, I am going to give it everything I have, no matter what, we have to win this,' Alix thought as Nina approached Adora and the leaders kept on talking, involving Dral and Alix as well, who paid close attention.

As Alix was talking with them, he glanced at Adora and her eyes mistakenly met with his and he smiled at her then she waved at him.

'Whatever it is that she is hiding, it is clearly not good, damn it, I am slightly sleepy, we have been at these things, all day long,' Alix thought.

"Adora, what's going on with you?" Nina asked and at the same time, Ifrit grabbed onto her arm and she looked at him.

"We need to talk, I am not asking either," he said and Nina glanced at him.

'He seem upset, what's going on here?' Nina wondered and Adora exhaled deeply.

"We have nothing to talk about, I am fine," she said and he gritted his teeth as he squeezed her arm and Adora's eyes narrowed.

"Ifrit," she said as she placed her hand on his.

"It's fine," she added as she placed her hand on his then he walked away and clenched his right fist.

"Is it my fault..." he mumbled and she heard him then grabbed onto his arm.

"Don't even think like that, it's not your fault, I am stuck because of me, that's it, nothing more and no one to blame, you need to go and cool your head off, top thinking about it, this is not the time for that," she said and he nodded then she smiled and he scoffed before patting her on her shoulder and leaving.

"What was that about?" Nina asked.

"I guess part of him is blaming himself for me being entangled in this situation, but it's not like that at all, it's my own fault, but I will not regret it, not for a moment," she responded and Nina exhaled deeply.

"Adora, stay with Alix tonight," Nina suggested and Adora's cheeks flushed as she looked at the girl and Nina smiled.

"Why would I do that? We have other things to worry about right now," she said as she lowered herself.

"Adora, this is feels weird, you love him... Don't you?" Nina asked and Adora smiled at her then shook her head once and Nina smiled at her.

A little while after, everyone decided to go home and call it a night and they would continue where they left off the next day, since they had quiet a long day.

After everyone left, Adora didn't see Alix and she went to her room, to call it a night.

When the girl finished freshening up and do what she needed to, she took off the lights and got into her bed, where she felt something wrapped around her waist and her eyes widened.

Before she could say anything, a hand covered her mouth and the lights in the room switched on.

Adora turned around and her eyes widened when she saw it was Alix and he grinned at her and her cheeks lit up, pink.

"Hey," he said with a wink and both of them burst out laughing, since he actually managed to scare her.
