Chapter 254 To Test

Alix smiled as she saw the others willing to train in a somewhat harsh environment to improve.

"To be honest, the snow mountains would be better, the wind is cold but not as cold as there, the harsh environment would be better for training as well, so maybe you guys can wait until we get back home and we can ask her to go with us there," Alix suggested.

"I agree with Alix here; he is correct; there will be a lot better for all of us; all we have to do is suggest it to her, and she will take us," Kyris said, to which Cameron nodded.

"All right, then I'll wait until we get back home, we'll all ask her, and I hope to meet the other teams soon, to be honest, I'm kind of excited to meet them, I want to see how strong they are," Sarah replied.

"Some might exceed your expectations, and some might be just like us; we're not that different, and to be honest, most of us have one thing in common," Cameron said.

"Let me see, most of us wanted a place where we could belong, be ourselves," Alix replied, and they smiled.

"Yes, that's exactly it, you guys do know she wasn't expecting or was going to ask any of us to help her right?" Cameron asked.

"She doesn't have to ask, and we're not doing this because we owe her anything; we're doing it of our own free will, am I right?" Alix inquired.

"Totally, you are right, you are growing on us, all of you, I am sure the other teams will love you guys too, one hundred percent sure, they hardly have problems with others or even new members, we are not perfect, we have our little quarrel at times but it doesn't matter," Cameron responded.

"I'm pretty sure they will like them; they are just waiting to get back home; they will pounce on you guys; don't take that negatively; it's not a bad thing; they just like to meet new group members at times," Kyris said and the others smiled.

"We're looking forward to meeting them; I'm curious to see how strong they are," Alix replied with a smile.

"Good, now let's continue watching the anime, it's going pretty well so far, for a movie, let's relax and enjoy it," Yan said as they sighed before continuing to watch the anime that they had put on which was good for them while Adora sat in the valley under a tree, relaxing her body with the cold breeze blowing.

"Adora," someone called out, but she ignored the voice and concentrated hard on her body.

"Adora," someone yelled, and she jumped, turning around to see no one nearby.

"I really despise this," she said.

"Adora, be careful," the person said, and she gnashed her teeth as her eyes began to glow red, as did her hand, which she passed over her hair, causing a strand of her hair to glow red, blocking that specific voice from reaching her, and she sighed.

'I wonder why I keep hearing that voice, Ifrit isn't here, I wonder if he can help, but I won't bother him, it's best if he stays out of this, they'll just find another reason to blame him for things he hasn't done,' Adora pondered before closing her eyes and continuing to meditate.

A little while after, Alix went to the kitchen to get a drink when he decided to test out what the iron claw that appeared on his hand is really capable of so he drank a glass of juice and then went to the garden where no one was to practice a little.

"This should do it," he said, taking a deep breath and smiling as the claw formed on his hand.

"Now let's see which and which ability I can use with you instead of using bare hands, I will have more control," Alix said as dark flames formed at the tips of his clawed fingers.

"Nice, didn't think I'd be able to use this in portions, especially this small," he mumbled as the flames began to move according to his will, and he scoffed and took a deep breath as small red lighting strikes began to appear on his arm and formed around the black flames, and when he released one of the small balls of it and threw it up in the sky, it exploded with lightning flashing in the air, and Adora heard it then turned around and smiled upon seeing the small red streaks of the lighting vanishing in the sky.

"I see someone practicing, at least this shows his interest in his powers, which I am glad for," Adora said with a smile before she sighed and returned to relaxing which was getting hard due to her being distracted and her mind was not at ease.

"Now that's a great one, I didn't think I could merge the two, this gives me a chance at better attacks," Alix said, deciding to continue testing his abilities to see what he could do with them and on what scale they would cause damage.

For the very first time, Alix wanted to test his limits and see what he was truly capable of even though he knew all the gates were not opened as yet and that couldn't be rushed.

After a few hours, Adora returned to the castle, where she bumped into Alix then looked at him and smiled.

"Sorry, how did training go? I saw," she said.

"It was good; I came up with a few more ideas; I think I will be able to use more of my powers now that you have opened a gate," he replied to which she smiled.

"I am glad, I didn't expect to see you so interested, I'm going to get something to eat, it is almost night, I have to pack too, I tried relaxing my entire body for hours, but, most of it was a waste," she sighed before walking away, and he scoffed.
