Chapter 153 Relieved

After hearing what Kyris said Adora grinned.

"Wh- What?" Kyris asked.

"I don't understand why you're bragging when you're the one who lost to me," she responded, and the others burst out laughing, followed by a smirk from him.

"I hope to beat you someday," he said to which she smiled.

"I will be waiting for that day," she replied as a whip of dark energy flew her way and she smirked, but just as she was about to get rid of it, Alix grabbed it and Kyris blew a whistle.

"Are you going to make it a habit to obstruct my path?" Adora inquired, and Alix gave her a glance before releasing the whip, which mixed itself back into Kyllan's energy.

"Do you think you're getting the hang of it?" Alix inquired, and Kyllan's eyes began to glow red, along with the darkness around him, before the energy vanished and Alix smirked.

"I did it, guys," he said as he ran up to Adora and tightly hugged her.

'She let him hug her, she usually doesn't let people, she is weird,' Alix observed as Kyllan rose from her and she patted him on the shoulder.

"You are doing well; if both of you keep up this pace, you won't have to worry about things like this again," Adora said as the others exhaled a sigh of relief.

"You guys eased our tension a bit too, I am happy for both of you," Ayden said.

"So are we," Aerav replied, smiling as Adora yawned.

"Are you still sleepy? Serves you right for not sleeping," Alix muttered and Adora kicked him off of the waterfall and the others laughed.

"Are you still sleepy Alix?" she shouted and he grinned.

"Why did you do that?" Yan asked.

"Because I wanted to," she explained, "and he deserves it for picking a fight with me."

'I will make you pay for this,' Alix thought as he emerged from the water, and Adora went over to her fox, patting it on the head, and it vanished along with the tiger.

"Adora "You are usually a person who is full of energy; you never sleep away like that, is everything okay?" Kyris inquired, and Alix looked at him, then at her when he arrived at the top of the waterfall.

"It's nothing, don't worry about it, Sarah and Ayden, come over here for a moment," she said, and Sarah and Ayden walked over to Adora.

"Y- Yes," Ayden said and she smiled.

"Relax, you guys are not in trouble," she said. "I want to ask you both one question each, is that okay?"

"All right, go ahead," Ayden said.

"Ayden, you are strong," she replied, "but tell me what you lack when you use your lighting," he lowered his head.

"I can use the lightning well, but I don't use it with enough will power, not enough force, due to which it doesn't cause too much harm to the opponent, I will work on it," he said then she patted him on the shoulder.

"Sarah, what do you lack while fighting with your sword?" Adora inquired, and Alix smiled.

"I lack speed; I also need to improve," she replied.

"Good, I'm glad you guys know that, none of you have reached your full potential yet, I'll help you all get there, we'll help each other, so now, I want you to train with Ayden, you two will be able to help each other, you teach her to move faster and you help him with power, you are a good target, point out his mistakes while he is training and why he can't use more force, you are good at those things too," Adora said and both of them smiled.

"Are you guys okay with that?" Adora asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine with it, your highness," Ayden replied.

"I understand and thank you," Sarah said.

"There's no need to thank me, I'm just doing my part, this is my responsibility," she replied, as Alix approached her and wrapped his wet arm around her neck and her brows twitched as he smirked.

"'She will kill you,' Kyris muttered, holding back his laughter.

"Alix," she exclaimed.

"Just take the thank you, you deserve it anyway," he said.

"You are both welcome; tell me, Kyris, despite being the princess, will I be able to cover it up if I murder someone like my student?" she asked.

"Of course," he said, and she looked at Alix.

"What? Do you really intend to murder me, your highness?" he inquired.

​ "I see you are playing a smart-ass," she said.

"Why are you angry?" he asked with a teasing look on his face and she sighed.

"You deliberately placed your wet hand on me, that's fine, for now I'm going back to the castle, it's almost night, and I'll deal with you in my own time, I always catch you off guard," she said and his brow twitched.

'She is right, damn woman what the hell is she up to?' Alix wondered as she walked past him, then winked at him and he sighed.

"Whatever she is planning, she will get you good, let's go," Kyris said in a teasing tone as they all returned back to the castle.

Upon arriving back at the castle, Niya threw herself on the couch in the living room, and Zavis grabbed her by the feet and pulled her off, then sat down and she pouted.

"You're so mean," she exclaimed.

"Shut up, you deserved it, I won't show pity, shoo," he replied and Adora chuckled, then the girl got back up and sat on another couch.

"Guys, I am going to freshen up because I'm wet from head to toe thanks to someone," Alix said.

"All right," Sarah replied, and as Alix was about to leave, he noticed Adora staring at him.

'What? Why are you staring at me like that? "You are plotting against me," he said.

"Perhaps I am, but I wonder whose fault that is; if I were you, sweetheart, I would be extra cautious," she replied, and he grinned then left.
