Chapter 159 Knocked Out

"I am hungry," Adora said, and it chuckled.

"Serves you right for not eating properly, stupid mask," it replied, and she pouted.

"You keep having fun, if only I can strangle you," she said.

"I would like to see you try, go get something to eat, I don't want you to starve to death here," it replied, and she chuckled before putting her mask back on and then left to the kitchen to get something to eat.

After the girl took her food, she began eating, while eating, she couldn't help but feel more sleepy than before.

"Drink a sleeping pill or something, this is not good, what if something happens and you sleep away in the middle of it?" it inquired and she sighed.

"I know, I know," she replied, "but I tried sleeping, so it's not like I didn't."

"I know that, maybe have someone knock you out so you can get some sleep," it suggested, and she smiled.

​ "Perhaps I will do that; even a few hours of sleep will suffice," she replied then sipped her drink, and looked at the shadow.

"Don't you feel alone in there after I seal you?" she inquired.

"Not quite because I know you are always here no matter how long I am sealed for," it replied.

"Give me a little more time and you'll be free," she said.

"It's fine, take as much time as you need, I am not in a rush," it replied.

"So you say, once people know you are up and walking around freely, they will come for your head; let me know if you get into trouble; I don't mind starting a fight," she said, and it chuckled.

"Do you really want to bring down the magical parliament?" it inquired.

"I have been wanting to do it just like my mother, they are useless and try to overrule my father, despite him being the king, he knows that I am sure he would be glad to get rid of them too," she replied.

"I think he wants them gone too, you know, there's only so much your father can do," it said.

"I know that, believe me, I do, good thing that woman is by his side, I guess she helps out a lot, even though I hate to admit it," she responded.

"Do you despise your father and stepmother?" it inquired, and she smiled.

"No, I don't hate them, and I have no reason to," she replied, and the shadow smiled.

"You are more mature than your age; there aren't many like you," it said as she finished her meal.

After the girl finished eating, she wiped her lips, then reapplied her mask then left to her room.

"Knock me out, huh?" Adora asked before entering her room.

"I guess I will do just that, I am going to seal you now, okay?" she said.

"All right, good night," it replied, and she closed the seal before going to Kyris' room and knocking on the door.

"Coming," he announced as he opened the door, and Adora smiled.

"Could you do me a favor?" she inquired.

"Sure, what exactly is it?" he asked.

"Put me to sleep," she responded and he left staring at her.

"You want me to knock you out? Why?" he asked.

"I want to sleep, in fact, I need to sleep so please," she said as his eyes glowed white and he tapped her behind her neck, knocking the girl out, and as she fell asleep, he lifted her up in his arms and carried her to her room, gently placing her on her bed.

"So you're having trouble sleeping," he said as he looked at her, then sighed and sat down on the couch and after a little while of gazing, he fell asleep.

Later that morning when Adora woke she stretched off, yawning, and smiled when she looked at the time and saw it was already 9 am.

"I got a few hours of sleep, that felt good," she said, smiling, when she noticed Kyris sleeping on the couch.

"He stayed, he has always been like this, he is one of my special cases," Adora said as she tapped him on the hand and he flung up from his sleep.

"Relax," she advised, and he sighed.

"I was in a nice deep sleep, I am too lazy to get up today," he said as he stretched away, and she chuckled.

"You were so tired that you slept away here last night, keep an eye out for a stiff neck," she said to which he smiled.

"I don't care, did you get enough sleep?" he asked.

"I got about five hours of sleep after a while, so that's good enough, thank you Kyris," she said.

"You are welcome; how long have you been having difficulty sleeping?" he inquired.

"Forever," she smiled as he stood up, then sighed and patted her on the shoulder.

"I hope you get to sleep better soon enough, I am going to my room to freshen up," he said.

"All right, uh... Kyris," she said, and he turned to look at her before leaving.

"You don't have to thank me again, just try to sleep more, okay?" he replied and she smiled.

"Okay," she said then he left and Adora sighed while taking her mask off then went to freshen up.

After Adora finished her morning routine, she got dressed then left the room and went to the living room where Zavis was lying on the couch.

"Good morning," she said, and he smiled at her.

"Good morning," he replied.

"What exactly are you doing here?" she inquired.

"My back hurts, and I feel like an old man," he said, and she laughed.

"You may have trained a little too much; this happens from time to time; just go easy on yourself and you'll be back to normal and raring to go," she explained.

"She is correct, you will be fine, this happens to a lot of people, especially when they overtrain, good morning guys," Alix said as he entered the living room, followed by Yan and Nina.
