Rise of the Malactric Heir



The people that were there gathered around them and Alix looked at them as they smiled and he exhaled deeply, knowing that after a very long time, they had found a little peace and didn't want to ruin it for them but knew that they deserved to know the truth as well.

"What's going on?" one among them asked and Dral glanced at Alix they approached him and Alix looked at Dral.

"Alix, you are one hundred percent sure, right?" Dral asked and Alix smiled at him a little.

"Yeah, it needs to be done, I have to do what I am supposed to as well, right, Adora?" Alix asked as he glanced back at her and she tilted her head a little then nodded and he scoffed then looked at the people.

"We have an important announcement to make, one which concerns the past and the present along with what may happen in the future, it concerns the heir of our king and queen," Dral said and everyone left staring at them.

They began exchanging glances, wondering what they were talking about and got a little confused since no one has talked about that for a very long time and Dral sighed as he looked at their confused faces then glanced at Alix, who stepped forward.

"Everyone, please be quiet and listen to us, in fact, listen to this young man and what he has to say to you," Dral said as the warriors came as well and Alix looked at them then sighed and his eyes shimmered.

"Hey, this is important and none of us are joking around, we understand why you are confused but we don't have time to waste as well, so please be quiet and listen," Alix said in a heavy tone.

Everyone became quiet and turned their attention to him and Adora as well as the others looked at him and smiles appeared on their faces then Alix sighed as he looked at them and his eyes narrowed.

"The truth is, the heir of the king and queen, is alive," he said and everyone gasped as they stared at him and the warriors exchanged glances.

"Hey, you... What are you talking about? Do you have any idea as to what you are saying?" one of the warriors asked and Alix glanced at her.

"I asked everyone to be quiet, please do the same and before you jump at someone, listen to everything they have to say, I know what I am talking about, listen," Alix responded and he stopped talking immediately and Kyris chuckled then Adora sighed and Dral nodded.

"Fine, we are listening to you, you better be telling the truth as well, go on," the guy said and Alix scoffed then nodded and the people looked at him.

"I wouldn't have said what I just didn't if it wasn't true, I know how much most people here have been through, what this land has been through, I know everyone thought he died that night just because he wasn't seen afterward, but he was saved by wonderful people and grew up in a kingdom nearby and because of them, today he is able to see who he is and where he came from," Alix said and everyone smiled at him and it brought tears to some of the elders among them.

"Is this true?" the warriors asked and Dral along with Yaron stepped forward and they looked at them as though they had just seen someone who died and came back to life.

"Yeah, guys, it's one hundred percent true," Yaron responded.

"Yes, what he is saying is the truth, one he had only recently found out as well, the king and queen's son is alive," Dral added and the people smiled at him.

"Where is he now?" another asked and Dral glanced at Alix as the people looked at them with eager eyes, waiting for an answer.

Alix's brows furrowed as he glanced at them then sighed and Adora and the others looked at him.

"Do you guys think he will go on or will Dral do it?" Eliza asked and Serina looked at her then shrugged and Adora smiled a little.

"No, he is going to tell them who he is by himself," both Kyris and Ifrit responded at the same time then they chuckled and the others smiled at them then Alix glanced at them before smiling a little.

"Alix..." Yaron mumbled then Alix nodded and Yaron smiled.

"He is right here, among us and he has been for a while now," Yaron said and the people exchanged glances.

"The king and queen's son is me," Alix said as his eyes glowed brighter and his body began glowing as well, giving off a strong presence and their eyes widened as they left staring at him and Adora glanced at him as he stared at the people, who couldn't believe their own eyes and at the same time, a gentle wind blew past them.

"Is this true?" one of the captains among the warriors asked.

"Yeah, I can say it is because I have known for a very long time, ever since the night his mother and father died, because among the two that helped save him, I am one of them," Dral responded and Alix nodded and the people gasped.

A lot of them were confused about all of it since it came so suddenly to them and they began talking among themselves.

Dral smiled a little, knowing that they would at least need a little more explanation in order to fully accept it as well as understand it.

"Dral, go ahead if you want to, it will be better if it comes from you since you were there and know everything, we will also have to explain what's going on lately," Alix said and Dral nodded then stepped up beside him and he sighed.

"Everyone listen to me carefully, I will explain a few things, the ones that you need to know not more," Dral said and everyone listened carefully as Dral began explaining about how Alix survived and how he knew as well as where he went all these years but didn't give them more than they needed to know, only that which was necessary for them to understand what happened.
