Rise of the Malactric Heir

The king was surprised that they had captured one of the most powerful demons, but he knew he wasn't happy for some reason.

"How did you catch him?" the king inquired.

"He was at the ball last night, dancing with the princess, I picked him up by his presence and look, which he concealed, but I saw Ifrit once, a long time ago and it seems as though he was friendly with the princess, he is nothing but evil and if the princess knew about him, we will need to talk to her, we sentence Ifrit to death for all his wrongdoing," Sam replied, and the king sighed.

"I'm not going to die at your hands; I didn't come here to hear your nonsense," Ifrit declared, and Sam laughed.

"There's nothing you can do; you even got the princess involved; why is she with an evil being like yourself?" Ifrit gnashed his teeth as Sam asked.

"Shut up, you don't know anything," Ifrit responded.

"You know nothing, I'll kill you myself," Sam said and Alix clenched his fists as he remembered Adora's relationship with Ifrit and how she considered him a family.

"Do you have any objections, your majesty?" Sam inquired as the king fixed his gaze on Ifirt.

"No, I don't," he replied, and Sam smiled as they all took a step back, and Ifrit smiled.

'I can't fight back, Adora, I will put you in more trouble, I wish I could see you this morning, I had a gift for you too,' Ifrit thought with a smile as all the LARS agents gathered around him and Sam's hands began to glow bright red, and Ifrit sighed.

"Ifrit," someone called out and before Sam could strike, Adora appeared in front of Ifrit with her eyes glowing bright red and everyone gasped.

"Adora," the king said, and Adora kicked Sam away, and one of the LARS agents assisted him in getting up, and Adora sighed and looked at Ifrit.

"This is why I told you to stay away," she said, gnashing her teeth as she looked at the shackles on him.

"You really shouldn't have come," he replied.

"Shut up," she said and he lowered his head when she turned to face the others.

"What exactly do you think you're doing, Sam?" Adora inquired.

"Getting rid of an evil," he replied, to which she scoffed.

"What evil are you referring to?" she asked.

"Ifrit, first and foremost, I will kill him," Sam replied.

"Don't even think about approaching him; I'll rip you apart," Adora threatened.

"Adora, what is the meaning of this?" the king asked.

"I will tell you all one of my secrets, Alix I promised I will tell you and the others about the one I had within me, listen carefully," she responded and he smirked.

"Go on, we're paying attention," Alix said, and Adora smiled.

"Ifrit was the one I had within me," she replied.

"I thought about it, I have been thinking since I saw him last night," Alix said and Adora smiled.

"Why was he sealed within you, princess?" Sam asked.

"Who sealed this evil creature within you, Adora?" the king inquired.

"I sealed him within me, he is no evil creature father, I have never stood by evil before, you guys need to listen carefully to what I say here because I will not let anyone lay a hand on Ifrit," she replied, and the queen smiled before the king sighed.

"All right, we'll listen," the king said, and Adora smiled.

"Good, Ifrit had not massacred an entire army nor city before the war, he was forced to, he is not evil, I met him the night mother died, he was going to die or be forced to do something really bad, so I used up the little energy I had and sealed him within me, it's another reason why I was sleeping for almost a week," she replied, and the king left staring at her.

"No way, what if he is the one who murdered your mother? Nothing you say will change our feelings about him; he is an evil that should not exist among men," Sam said and Adora looked at him sternly.

"What did you say?" Adora asked.

"Adora," Kyris said as she sighed and looked at him.

"I'm going to make my point clear, and I hope you all understand because I'm not going to repeat myself," she said, and Kyris smiled.

"Ifrit is innocent, he didn't kill anyone on purpose, nor did he kill my mother, he never laid a finger on her, and I am witness, a living witness, that night Ifrit helped me and I simply saved him, besides you guys have no proof that he did anything, all you have is what you heard from others, rumors, he may be a demon, but not all of them are bad, and if you don't believe me, summon the demon lord, he will explain to you in his language, hurt him and I will send you to the pits of hell, I will not hold back," Adora said and her friends smiled.

"I believe her, if he was evil, he would have made a move long ago, and Adora is correct, you have no proof, all you have are those filthy words that come out of your mouth," Alix said, and Kyris chuckled.

"Shut up, you have no right to speak here, even you don't have a proper background," Sam replied, and Alix's eyes began to glow blue.

"Say that again, then you will see what I can be like when I am not in my right mind," Alix said.

"I suggest you don't drag my team into this; I might start losing my patience; what else do you need to see the truth?" Adora inquired.

"All I see before us is an evil, his intentions are dark, maybe you are one of him too, evil," Sam responded, and Alix was about to move when Adora smiled at him and he chuckled.

"Push me and I'll show you what's evil; I'm not a jerk like you," Adora said.

"What did you say? Seize Ifrit and if the princess gets in the way or any other, get rid of them too," Sam yelled, and Adora clenched her fists before grabbing Ifrit's shackles, which caught fire and engulfed her right hand, and Sam chuckled.
