Ifrit glanced at Adora then placed his hand on her shoulder and she glanced at him then he smiled and she exhaled deeply before her eyes returned to normal and Inalia and Nova exchanged glances.
"Please explain yourselves," a guy who was tall, muscular, fair and had short blonde hair said as he approached them with a slim and fair brunette woman by his side.
"Who are you?" Alix asked.
"I am Yaron, I am partly in charge until he returns," he responded.
"So you are the so-called..." Adora mumbled and his brows twitched.
"Wh- What did he say to you? He called me names didn't he?" he asked as he leaned in closer to Adora.
Alix stood before her and the guy looked at him and Adora peeked at Alix.
Yaron stepped back a little and a gentle smile appeared on his face as he looked at Alix and Adora.
"Ugh... Let's forget about that..." he said.
"Call him names, I will tell him," Adora replied and he chuckled.
"You guys are close after all, that's surprising, he never lets himself get close to anyone much less kids, I will tell you that demons live here as well, half breed but, tell me, why is a greater demon here?" he asked as he looked at Ifrit.
"He is Ifrit and he is here with me," Adora responded and Ifrit's eyes glowed red and the guy left staring at him.
"Ifrit you say, that demon from the past, from what I heard, isn't he on their side?" he asked as he disappeared and reappeared before Ifrit and Adora flinched then Alix moved in front of Ifrit and everyone left staring at them.
"Listen to what has to be said and don't jump to conclusions, he is with us," Alix said, Ifrit glanced at the guy and he sighed.
"Explain this, please, if you don't, he will be in trouble," Yaron replied and Adora sighed.
"He wasn't with them by choice, I wish that one could be here right now, whatever, I will explain it myself," Adora said and Yaron glanced at her.
"I don't mean to be rude princess, but you have to understand, he is a threat as well, so," he replied and Adora smiled.
"Yeah, I know, he is strong, feared by many but as you can see, quite timid as well," she said. Ifrit scoffed and Alix chuckled.
"Do you want to tell him?" Alix asked and Adora sighed, remembering she had a lot to tell later as well.
"Go ahead," she responded and Alix smiled then looked at the guy and he began telling him parts of Ifrit's story and they all listened carefully and while he was talking, Ifrit lowered his head and Adora glanced at him.
"You okay?" Adora asked.
"Yeah, I just hope this is going to be our last fight, meaning we don't have to face such threats again," he responded and she patted him on his shoulder and he smiled at her and she grinned.
After Alix finished telling the guy the story, he turned to Ifrit and sighed before lowering his head as did the warriors that tried to attack him earlier and Ifrit glanced at them.
"Please don't, it's fine, I still did wrong no matter in what way it happened," he said and Alix glanced at him then sighed.
"You are too hard on yourself at times, loosen up, you have something better to fight for now, don't you?" Alix asked and Ifrit's eyes widened, he looked at Alix and the boy smiled at him then looked at Adora and Ifrit chuckled as the girl talked to Inalia and Nova.
"The princess and you, you two seem close," Yaron said and Alix glanced at him then smiled.
"We are," he replied before going to Adora and Yaron chuckled as he looked at them.
"Once again, we are sorry for all of this," Yaron and his partner said and Ifrit smiled at them.
"Also princess, before we go to where the creatures are, have you heard anything from him?" Yaron asked with a concerned look in his eyes and she exhaled deeply while clenching her right fist and Alix glanced at her.
"No, not as yet, he made a promise though," she responded and Yaron chuckled.
"He will be here, he never breaks his promise, come on, let's go to see them then we will head to the old castle just the few of us though, no more or less," he said and Adora nodded.
"Come on, I am sure you guys will love it," Nova added as he walked ahead and they followed them.
After a few minutes of walking, they took a path not far from the waterfalls and came to an open valley which was connected to the one leading to the fallen city but it was blocked off by a barrier so that no one could enter from the city's direction.
"Where is it?" Alix asked.
"We are here," Nova responded as they passed an opening between two large trees and Alix smiled when he saw how many different types of creatures were in the valleys, surrounded by different types of trees and flowers.
"Woah," Alix said and Adora held onto his hand with a gentle smile on her face, Alix smiled when he saw her eyes shimmer.
"Adora, look," Alix said as he pointed up at the sky and she chuckled when she saw Minastra.
"For some reason, he looks bigger," Alix mumbled and Adora chuckled as they stepped into the valley and some of the creatures began approaching them and just then, Myalis heard her creature growling and she smiled.
"Loos like they want out," Alix said and Adora chuckled
"Yours too?" she asked.
"Yeah, it's been a while since I have seen him as well, hope he doesn't wish to bite my head off," he responded and Adora chuckled.
"Well, let's give them some fresh air, I think they will fit in just fine here," Alix added and Adora nodded.
Both of them placed their right hands on the ground and two large magical circles appeared and from them, leaped out her tamed beasts as well as Alix's and the others gasped when they saw them and Alix and Adora smiled at them when they roared.
