BXBX NOVEL Chapter 86 Calmed
"Your Highness." someone called out.
"Is anyone there?" Adora questioned as she removed her hood while walking down a dark alley, when her tiger appeared in front of her and she smiled.
"What are you doing here, boy?" she asked, bracing her head against his.
"I\'m sorry, my lady, I know you\'re busy, but wherever you go, I can find you, the young man Alix is having trouble with his powers, but thanks to the pack we formed, his wolf can communicate with us," it said, as Adora sighed.
"Will he be able to calm down?" she asked as the tiger\'s eyes glowed red.
"Perhaps," he replied.
What exactly is your beast doing here?" the mage asked as he approached Adora.
"He came to tell me about something at home," she explained.
"Is everything all right?" he asked, and she lowered her head.
"Hopefully it will be fine, I am sorry boy, but you won\'t be able to find me anymore, I can\'t have you coming to meet me, I am breaking your tracking connection to me, keep an eye on him, just like I taught you to, hopefully, he can control it," she said as her eyes glowed blue along with the tiger before it vanished and she looked at Xenom, which was the mage\'s first name and he sighed.
"Come on, the last thing we want right now is to be discovered by those who think of us as spies," Xemon said as both of them disappeared.
"I\'m fine now," Alix said, his hands returning to normal and he looked at the wolf who stayed there with him the entire time.
"Thank you," Alix said, panting.
"You should be careful, good night," the wolf said before disappearing, and Alix got up and went to freshen up.
"I hate that I can\'t control what my powers despite learning so much," Alix said while taking a bath, and another mark appeared on his back that he didn\'t even notice.
After finishing his bath, Alix got dressed, ate dinner, and went straight to bed, where he quickly fell asleep.
"Vellon was here wasn\'t, Xemon?" Adora questioned as she removed her mask, and he looked at her as they stood on top of a building overlooking a city.
"Yeah, he was, he\'s probably looking for the other energy source, I might be a mage, but I can\'t figure out where the nest location is, I need something like a guide, a map, connecting to them," he replied.
We\'ll figure something out; will you keep your end of the bargain? Wait until the tournament is over and about bringing forth the finals if they win?" she asked and he smirked.
"You have known me for years; I admit we don\'t get along, but I am not going to lie about it," he said.
"If you say so, then I guess we should get going," she said as she jumped off the tall building and Xemon followed her.
The next morning when Alix woke up, he looked at the announcement on his phone for it was the day of their team match and he felt energized. The young man got up, ate breakfast, showered, got dressed, and left his apartment to see Sally.
"Good morning, Sally," Alix said as he entered the bakery, and she smiled.
"Good morning, young man. Are you prepared for today\'s match?" she asked.
"Yeah, I am, can I have a box of croissants?" he asked, smiling.
"Of course, are they for your friends?" she questioned.
"They are, the match will begin shortly before midday, the timing has changed," he replied.
"That\'s early, but I suppose it\'ll last a while," she said as she handed him his order and he paid for it.
"Thank you very much, Sally," he said.
"You are welcome Kid, good luck, and have fun," she said as he smiled and then left on his bike.
Alix arrived at the arena, parked his bike, and went up to the waiting area in the building, only to find the others already there, sitting side by side with other teams, waiting.
"Good morning, Alix," Sarah said as he handed her the pastry bok.
"Good morning, guys," he said.
"The team you\'re up against is already there, they have a private room, and you guys can have one too," Elijah said as he approached Alix.
"I don\'t see the point in that, do you?" Ayden questioned.
"No, we are fine," Alix replied.
"If that\'s what you guys want, fine just eat, drink, do whatever you want in the meantime, the first match starts soon, it\'s already 10:45," Kyris said.
"Here," Nina said, bringing a few cups of latte and handed it to them.
"Thank you, Nina, but you didn\'t have to," Sarah said with a smile.
"It\'s fine, you guys need it; I\'d like to stay and watch the match, but I have work to do," she said, pouting.
"Bad advice, but you can take a break from your work, stay, and enjoy the match; I\'m sure the king won\'t fire you," Alix said.
"No, he won\'t, Adora would go crazy on him," Yan replied as he approached them.
"What are you doing here, Yan?" Nina questioned, her cheeks flushed as he wrapped his arm around her neck.
"I came here to relax and watch a match; I was supposed to go on a mission, but I asked Xemon to put someone else in my space before he left with Adora, so I got time off," he explained, and Nina smiled brightly.
"So are you allowed to refer to my brother by his first name?" Kyris questioned.
"Well he seems fine with it; he\'s tired of people calling him the mage, if I were him I would be tired of it too," Yan replied, and Kyris chuckled.
"So you guys are the rising new team that we have been hearing about these days?" a guy asked as he approached Alix as the first match began, and Alix looked at him sternly.
