"We don't want to be anywhere else, we found our calling," Ayden explained.
"He is right," Sarah replied and they all nodded in agreement,
"It is good to know you are all staying on my team; is that the same for you, Alix?" Adora asked and he glanced at her then smiled.
"I have nothing else to do, besides I have a feeling that this is where I should be for the time being," he replied, and she chuckled as they continued eating.
"I guess me leaving was not such a bad thing either, I feel happy after a very long time," Adora reflected as she stood up.
"I am going to freshen up," she said and the others smiled as she walked away.
Adora went to her room, locked the door, and removed her mask before she sighed and opened the seal on her chest.
"You seem happy," the voice from within said and Adora smiled then threw herself on the bed.
"Yeah, I am, for once I am, maybe I am the one who needed to find my calling as well," she responded.
"Maybe, also I am sorry Adora," it said.
"Huh? Why are you apologizing?" she questioned.
"I might be holding you back, you know if people find out about me they will cause problems, you kept me in this world for years don't hesitate to get rid of me, you have done enough for me," it said, and she scoffed.
"Please don't go there, the only thing I will do is give you a life, you will be able to walk freely soon, I promise, I really don't care what people say, this place is corrupted, it will give me reasons to deal with them, I will build the kingdom my mother desired," she replied.
"You never give up, do you?" It questioned, and she snickered.
"No, of course not, not on my dear friends, they provide me with a purpose as well, including you, but you already know that," she replied.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "Thank you Adora, now I know you have things to do, seal me off," he said, and she immediately closed the seal before taking her clothes off and went to freshen up.
While taking her bath, Adora closed her eyes, allowing the cold water to run down her body and she was able to relax.
"I will tell him the truth soon enough," she mumbled as she remembered her mother's last words and the darkness surrounding her as she died and Adora clenched her fists.
After Adora finished taking her bath she got dressed and put on her mask, then returned to the others who had finished eating and were relaxing in the living room.
"Did you guys enjoy your meal?" she asked.
"We did, thank you," Ayden said as Adora sat and Nina stood up.
"It's time for you to eat, Adora," Nina said.
"It's fine, I will get my food, I told you there are things you don't have to do for me Nina," Adora said as she stood up and left to the kitchen on her own, and Nina smiled.
"She is right, Adora dislikes it when people do too much for her," Yan said, as Nina sighed.
"I know, but I can't help myself; she seems a little happier today," Nina responded.
"I agree, her happiness is a good thing," Kyris said.
"How come she isn't happy most of the time?" Alix questioned, and both Kyris and Nina gave him a smile.
"I told you before that if you want to know anything about her, you'll have to ask her yourself unless you fear her that much," Nina said, as the others nervously smiled.
"It's not that we fear her; it's just that I don't think we have the right to pry into her life," Sarah explained.
"You fear her as well, I'll ask her myself soon, I think we have that much right now," Alix replied, smirking.
"You are a brave one, and you are correct; you are her team, and you have the right to ask and learn about your leader," Yan said.
"Since the leader is Adora, I understand why they are nervous," Kyllan said. "But Nina is right, you guys should all sit down around a campfire or something and let her tell you her side of the story, not the side that people talk about her."
"Yeah, I think we'll do that," Aerav replied. "Most people are wrong about her, and that's crystal clear."
"What are your thoughts on what some people say about me? Which is correct and which is incorrect?" Adora asked as she approached them, and Alix and his teammates left staring at her, unsure how to respond, and she sat down.
"I think most of them are lies, or things based on people's perceptions of you because they don't know the truth," Alix said and she lowered her head.
"I will tell you half of my story soon, but for now just let it go," she replied, and Nina glanced at her.
"Would you like to tell us what you and Xemon discovered?" Kyris questioned.
"We discovered the next location of the next energy source, and Adora ran into an old friend," Xemon said as he walked in, and Adora's eyes began to glow red as she clenched her fists.
"Where will the finals be held?" Adora asked.
"The kingdom of Silna," Nina replied and Xemon smirked.
"Since that's where you have to go, I think you all should be careful, the finals will get rough, especially with Vellon going after the very energy source, be cautious," Xemon said.
"So that is the location of the next source?" Alix inquired.
"Yeah, that's where it is," she said, and they smiled.
"I see, and the friend you ran into was Vellon, am I right?" Kyris asked, and Adora sighed.
"Yeah, it was," she said, and Xemon sat down beside her.
"Why can't you just kill him?" Alix asked, and Adora turned to face him.
"I am not sure I want to, let's not have this conversation right now, please," she replied.
'Well, guys, we will be leaving tomorrow, after lunch, on a ship headed to our next destination, you guys are up for an adventure, for sure," Nina said, and they all smiled, excited for their next trip.
