Chapter 356 Head To Head

"Adora, who is that?" he asked as he inflicted more pain on her body, and a dark shade began to cover the red glow within her eyes and a smile apepared on her face.

"Your demise, I.... I'll let him do whatever he wants, Alix!" she yelled, and Alix appeared behind the reaper and kicked him, causing him to release Adora, who fell to the ground as the reaper crashed into the table and the others jumped.

Before his accomplice could move, Alix dashed in front of him and he gasped as a smirk appeared on Alix face and the sword appeared in Alix's hand, which he used and stabbed the guy through the heart and his body lit up orange before turning to flames and the reaper chuckled before standing up.

"You managed to hit me? That's nice, what are your abilities?" he asked and Alix glanced at the others who stepped back.

"Adora, what's going on here? It's hard to even get close a reaper at times, he managed to hide himself completely within the shadows," Ifrit mumbled as Alix glared at the reaper whose scythe began glowing green and Adora glanced at him, then at Alix and remembered the promise she made herself.

'What should I do? Let him go on? I can't risk exposing him, this is....' Adora thought.

"You all deserve to die, you won't leave us to live a peaceful life, in order to get rid of you all, your master has to go right?" Alix asked with a piercing look in his eyes and the reaper scoffed.

"Yes, but everyone knows that he is not going anywhere, I will kill you if you get in my way, move I will not warn you again," he responded and Alix chuckled.

"I will get in your way, I would like to see you try and kill me," Alix said as the reaper disappeared, then reappeared beside Alix who sensed him and was about to dodge him but the tip of the scythe, wrapped around his clothes and the reaper threw him out of the ship, causing him to crash into the ground but Alix regained his balance.

Due to the commotion, everyone in the castle came out and the king and queen eyes widened as everyone exited the ship and Ifrit helped Adora out and she looked at Alix before sighing as the king and queen approached them.

"Adora, is that a reaper?" the king asked and she nodded.

​ "We should help him," Kyris said as he was about to move and Alix looked at them with a serious and strange look in his eyes and Kyris flinched before stepping back, knowing that's what Alix wanted.

"Adora," Kyris said as a smirk appeared on the reaper's face and his eyes began glowing green and black.

"Since you insist on getting in my way, I will show you what a reaper can do, I cannot die, not by the likes of you, that's for sure," he replied and Alix gnashed his teeth.

"You guys think so highly of yourself? Wow, I will test that theory today, indeed I don't know much about what she is keeping but, who cares? You guys are the real problem, I am starting to enjoy this, come at me when you are ready," Alix said.

"We shall see," the reaper replied and Adora held onto her chest and gnashed her teeth.

The reaper then lifted his scythe up in the air and dark energy began forming around it and Alix's eyes narrowed while looking at it and his armor claw appeared on his hand.

"Here I come, let's see how strong you are, Alix," he said as he hit the tip of the scythe into the ground, which began vibrating and dark spikes started shooting up from it and Alix jumped up in the air, avoiding them, but out of no where, one appeared behind him and pierced his arm but he disappeared and reappeared above one before it could do any other damage.

"You are fast," the reaper said and Ifrit looked at Adora and she sighed.

"I am not going to let you win," Alix said as he took a deep breath and blew fire so hot that it burst through the spikes and before it could hit the reaper he dodged it.

"It'll crash into the ship," Scott said, and Kyris leapt in front of the ship, forming a barrier before it to protect the ship and when the fire crashed into the barrier, it vanished and Scott sighed in relief then Kyris smiled.

"So you aren't weak after all, I want to see why even he is interested in you," the reaper said, and Alix exhaled deeply as the scythe's handle began to move like snakes and the others looked at each other.

"What will he do now? I just have to concentrate on my skills and they will appear, right?" Alix muttered as he looked at Adora, who took a deep breath.

Flames began to form on the scythe's handle, which began to move like a whip while extending, creating more dark flames and destroying the ground around it as it moved, and Alix smiled then exhaled deeply, and a few dark balls began to form by the tip of his claws, surrounded by small lightning bolts and the reaper didn't see since he hid his hand behind him.

"Let's see how much you can take for a mere human," he said as he unleashed the attack, and the flames rushed towards Alix, and the scythe's handle began separating and rushing towards Alix, who jumped up in the air and released the balls, causing explosions and they flinched.

The reaper's eyes widened as a bolt of black and red lightning came out of the smoke around them and struck him, sending him crashing into the ground, and Adora looked at Alix as he landed on the ground and looked at the black flames that surrounded him, his eyes glowed bright red changing the color of the flame, and the reaper stood back up and looked at the injuries on his body.

"How can he go head to head with me? What on earth is going on here?" he mumbled as he turned back to look at Adora, who smiled slightly. He gnashed his teeth before taking a deep breath, and energy began to surround him as flames formed around Alix's hands.
