Chapter 429 Deep Down
Alix swallowed and the others wondered what it was that they were hearing, they all turned their attention to Alix and Adora smiled at him as she pointed towards him.
"You are the last real heir, this place is the land of your ancestors," she said and he felt a gust of wind brush against his face as the others exchanged glances and Dral smiled at Adora before looking at Alix, who lowered his head.
"You are serious, aren't you?" Alix asked and Adora approached him, then a gentle smile appeared on her face and she peeked at him and he glanced at her.
"Alix is the Malactric heir?" Kyris asked as he and the others looked at each other in complete shock and Adora exhaled deeply.
"You know that I am speaking the truth, you have felt it many times before, it's one of the reasons why you wanted more answers to all of the questions you have had so far, am I wrong, Alix?" she asked and he looked at her as he clenched his right fist.
"No, you are not wrong, there are many times where I have felt strange things, different," he responded and she nodded, then Dral exhaled deeply as he got up and Kyris looked at him.
"Adora, you are being serious?" Zack asked and she glanced at him as well as Kyalln then nodded as a few thoughts ran through Alix's mind like a lightning bolt and he exhaled deeply.
"Yeah, she is telling the truth, I know it's a lot to process as well but with everything that has happened so far, deep down Alix had a feeling and he knows that what she is saying is the truth, he is the heir, the child that was saved that night," Dral said and they looked at him as did Alix.
"Well, that was not something that I was expecting... But I should have noticed, there were many times when I found a few things weird," Kyris added before exhaling deeply, feeling a bit relieved.
"A lot of weird things did happen, but the way Alix is, obviously it would have been hard to figure out, he has always fought his way through things," Nina said and Eliza nodded as well as Yan and Alix's gritted his teeth.
Alix remembered the seal on his heart and everything else that has been happening to him and realized that each part that was mentioned so far was true.
"So, you are the one who is their son? The last one?" Yaron asked with his eyes shimmering as tears appeared in them and Alix's brows furrowed as he looked at him, then Yaron hugged him and Dral smiled.
"I am glad, I am glad, I am sure the others will be happy as well, I am sorry, I just acted on my emotions, it's good you survived," Yaron said as he raised off of Alix and he lowered his head and Adora glanced at him.
"But, how?" Aerav asked and Dral exhaled deeply before looking at them.
"After his parents died, she came to Adora's kingdom, I supported her from afar and she became the legal guardian of Alix, he just never knew, he was in the orphanage for a while, but she watched him from afar as she got up in life, she opened the cafe, then a few years later mixed the bakery with it, she made sure Alix wouldn't punish for anything and did everything she could, even made sure he ended up right back with her, the woman she is my wife," Dral said and Alix's eyes widened as he looked at him.
"Huh? Sally is your wife?" Alix asked and Dral nodded, then Alix exhaled deeply as his mind became slightly stormy and Adora smiled at him.
"Sally is a hard worker, I am sorry for being suspicious all the time, but I had to be careful, I didn't want to disturb your life at that point, she thought that maybe you didn't have your parent's abilities and because I saw no sign of it, I tried to stay put but then when your abilities started awakening and I found out what's wrong, we both had a serious discussion," Dral responded.
"Since we found out it was a seal and we couldn't do anything about it, at the moment, only one person came to my mind who could do it and that was Adora, we had to do what was best for you and your future and that's when Adora took charge of everything for you, a whole after I had met her, the one your father wanted you to meet up with, what he said during his final words, is no other than Adora, the girl that has always been by your side," Dral added.
Alix looked at Adora while paying attention as to what was being said to him and he held onto the back of his head and Adora's brows furrowed as she looked at him.
"She was the one connected to the heir, the one who was tasked with bringing him out and she did her job as well, even though it was the hard way, that's because, she believes in you as well," Dral said and Alix smiled at Adora and she did the same.
"Your parents are the reason you two were connected from birth, you were meant to walk a similar path in life, but that was based on your own choices and she is the only one that open the seal, which has to be done carefully after she took a part in your life, after Sally and I made the decision, everything changed for you," he added.
"Your parents would have been glad to know you two came to be if they were here, you guys came pretty far, even though they are gone, their spirit lives on within Alix, you are the one the enemy doesn't know lives, you are their son, the one and only heir to the Malactric's, you are the only one who can get to the full truth behind it all and the ones that destroyed everything," Dral said.
Alix gnashed his teeth as he clenched his fist and the storm within his mind began to disappear and the green glow from the tree stretched towards him and the others gasped as they looked on.
