Rise of the Malactric Heir-Chapter 358 "A Reaper Is Not Invincible."

"C- Can he really hold it back?" Scott asked and Adora swallowed as her eyes glowed red and she looked at Alix's body and the energy that was forming around him and she sighed.

"I am not letting you leave here alive, I don't care how many of you I have to kill," Alix said as a red energy surrounded the ball and the reaper's eyes widened as he stared at it and when he tried moving away, something gripped his feet and he saw it was the fangs of Alix's wolf and Adora gasped.

"When did he think of doing all of this?" she mumbled as the reaper tried grabbing on to the wolf, but failed since he used the shadows to protect the wolf and Alix smirked as lighting formed around the ball and he released it.

A wave of energy rushed their way as a result of its release, pushing them back, and the reaper lifted his hand, attempting to stop the ball as it was heading straight for him, but in doing so, his hand began cutting, and Alix chuckled.

"Not every fight you can win, I learnt that a while ago, power is not all that matters, you need a brain as well," Alix said as the wolf disappeared and upon making full contact with the reaper, the ball exploded in a bright light and everyone closed their eyes then reopened it and only saw smoke in the air.

After the air around them cleared up, Kyris removed the barrier and they saw that the reaper was hurt but was still alive and he looked at Alix with nothing but hatred in his eyes and Alix looked right back at him without a fear in his.

"You tried, but couldn't kill me, but.." he said and Alix smiled as the reaper lifted his hand and Alix chuckled.

He disappeared and before the reaper could grab his scythe, he saw it vanished and his eyes widened as something pierced his heart and everyone gasped when they saw Alix pierce him using his own scythe, which was releasing a red energy.

"How?" the reaper mumbled as Alix released him and he turned to look at him.

"You should never overestimate yourself, you can be killed with your own weapon and a bit of force, a reaper is not invincible, you brought this on yourself, too late to regret your actions, you should just die now, I will kill anyone who comes after us without a good enough reason," he said and the reaper chuckled, before turning to face Adora.

"You finally found a suitable one.... I hope he doesn't give you nightmares," he said, and Adora scoffed as the reaper and his weapons vanished in a cloud of red ash, and Alix exhaled deeply as they approached him.

"Are you all right?" Yan asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine; I didn't realize I could do certain things, but I guess pushing yourself does produce wonderful results," he responded, and Yan nodded.

"You need to be healed; let's take care of that first, and then we'll talk more about all of this, but you did more than good; I can see how much you have grown and changed..." Kyris said as he looked at Adora, who lowered her head and turned away, her eyes trembling, and Ifrit looked at her as she took her phone from her pocket while holding onto her neck.

"Hello," she said after dialing Xemon's number and he answered. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

"Princess, are you guys okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, the reaper is dead, I wanted to let you know, are you guys okay?" she asked.

"Yeah, we are, don't worry," he responded.

"Do me a favor, dig up all the past files and everything on the war, I need some answers," she said.

"Got it, I will see what more I can get, you guys be careful, they are on to every one of you," he replied.

"Yeah, I know," she said as she started seeing blurry before disconnecting the phone.

"Hey, you and I need to talk," Alix said as he approached Adora and she glanced at him before grabbing onto his arm, and he looked at her.

"One minute," she said as her eyes glowed green and his eyes narrowed.

"You okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, I am fine, uh... Can we talk in the morning?" she asked.

"Yeah... I suppose," he responded.

"Kyris, think you can fix that part of the ship with magic and possibly reinforce it?" Alix asked as Kyris looked at the ship.

"Yeah, I can do that, Scott will help, but can we do that until morning?" he asked and Alix nodded.

"We will talk more about what happened here in the morning for now, you guys take the guest rooms in the castle, you all just need to rest, you are too young for all of this crap," the king said as he gnashed his teeth and his daughter placed her hand on his shoulder and he sighed.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine, I just realized how much of a target we all are, we only wanted to keep the peace and this is what we got for it, we're going to pay with much more sooner or later, this is just the beginning," he responded as he walked away and Adora gnashed her teeth.

Everyone knew it was true, and if they didn't find a solution soon, they'd all be bowing to their enemy leader.

"What are you thinking, Adora?" Ifrit inquired.

"Nothing, get some sleep, all of you, you guys must be tired," she responded as she walked away, and Ifrit's eyes widened as he noticed a shadow looming over Adora. He wanted to ask but knew it wasn't the right time.

They had no idea that the hell of the past had begun to rise, and Alix was breaking through the gates like they were nothing because of how much stronger he had become but there was also a price to be paid for that.

After going to their respective rooms in the castle, they all thought about nothing but ways to get stronger and help each other before calling it a night and attempting to get some rest, which most of them did.
