Rise of the Malactric Heir

Adora sighed as one of them stepped forward and the king smiled as did Kyris and Alix stared at them, then his brows furrowed as he sensed the energy that circulated around them and from that, he could tell that they were powerful. 

"You guys are finally back," Kyris said. 

"Yeah, we have been away for too long, I can see much has changed, especially from the new faces around," the guy that had stepped forward replied and Kyris chuckled. 

"Yeah, much has changed since you guys left, it's good to see that you are all just fine," the king said and they all bowed their heads and the king chuckled.

"I don't like going over the same thing over and over again, just raise up," he added and they raised up then the guy glanced at Adora with a smirk on his face. 

"Princess," he said as he went to her and her brows furrowed then she sighed. 

"Aragi," she replied. 

"It's good to see you again, it's been a while, don't you think?" he asked as he got closer to her and Alix glanced at him and Adora's eyes narrowed. 

The guy in front of her was tall, slim yet muscular, fair had light brown hair, which was slightly long, touching the back of his neck and was in a small pony with dark brown eyes mixed with a light orange around the circle. 

"It's good to see you again as well, welcome back," she responded and his eyes narrowed as he stared at her and she pulled her head back. 

"Who are they?" Zack asked and Adora glanced back at him. 

"Ah, yes I have to introduce you guys, it's one of the things that I didn't get a chance to do at an earlier date," she responded and Kyris nodded. 

"Well, guys, this is team one, the one mysterious team, looks like they have finally decided to return," Adora said and Alix's team exchanged glances after hearing that. 

Alix sighed as he remembered a few things that he heard about team one before and what Adora as well as Kyris had once told them and he scoffed. 

"Aragi, guys, this is the latest team and one of the most important ones as well, this is their leader, Alix, you guys should get to know each other," Adora said as she pointed to Alix and Aragi's eyes narrowed as he looked at Alix, who looked right back at him. 

"So you guys are the new team that I heard so much about, I see, nice to meet you," Arago said as he brought forth his hand and Adora glanced at Alix. 

Alix sighed then shook the guy's hand and Arago glanced a him and both of them smiled at each other, as Adora looked on. 

'Why do I feel slightly uneasy just looking at these two?' Adora wondered then her brows furrowed and Ifrit chuckled as he patted her on her shoulder and she glanced at his hand as Alix and Aragi released each other's hand. 

"Well, well, looks interesting, I didn't expect to see you guys here," Xemon said as he entered the living room and Aragi turned to look at him. 

"Your Highnesses," Xemon said as he bowed his head and they smiled at him. 

"There are a lot of you here today, I wasn't expecting this at all, I see the princess and the others are back as well, anyone cares to fill me in on what's going on here?" Xemon asked and Alix left staring at how many of them were in the room. 

'This place is crowded, a little too crowded for my liking, damn it,' Adora thought. 

"Why is everyone showing up like this? One after the other?" Alix asked and Adora chuckled then patted him on his shoulder and she looked at Xemon. 

"I will tell you what's going on here before all of this gets confusing, which it already is, so please listen carefully because I won't repeat bro," Kyris said before exhaling deeply and Alix patted him on his shoulder then he scoffed. 

"On second thoughts, you go ahead Alix, I might run out of breath soon," Kyris said and Alix's brows twitched and the others chuckled then he sighed. 

Alix began explaining to them what was going on at the time and Xemon as well as Aragi and his team members, paid close attention to what he was saying, without saying another word. 

After a little while of explaining, Aragi held onto the side of his head and Xemon exhaled deeply then approached Alix and leaned in towards him. 

"You are invading my space, I might get the urge to punch you Xemon," Alix said and the others laughed then Xemon chuckled as he looked at him. 

"You guys sure have had an interesting couple of months, that's for sure, I see you have all been through a lot, you guys even went to the Malactrics birth land, quite interesting indeed...." Xemon replied as his eyes narrowed and Alix smirked. 

"Well from what you just told us Alix, a lot has happened while we were gone, some of these things I have never even heard of while we were away, so you have been doing a lot of things, huh, Adora?" Arago asked as he leaned in closer to Adora. 

Adora looked at him and Alix grabbed onto his hand as he was about to touch her and Aragi glanced at him and Alix's eyes narrowed. 

"I think you are invading her space quite a bit, care to step back a little?" Alix asked with a piercing look in his eyes and Adora left staring at him, as did Aragi. 

With the air surrounding Alix, Aragi's brows furrowed then Alix released his hand and he pulled back immediately. 

"Ah, sorry about that, Adora," Aragi said and she smiled at him.

"It's fine," she replied then glanced at Alix who sighed.

Adora smiled at him then he looked at her and a gentle smile appeared on his face. 

"Then, now that it's all cleared up and everyone is on the same page, you guys do what you have to and I will get going, we will talk about the investigation later," the king said then left. 

After the king left, Adora and the others left the living room and went outside. 

"Then shall we discuss a few things about what we should do here?" Kyris asked as they gathered around and Xemon looked at them and decided to help since at the time, there were a lot of them.
