Later that day, while Alix was practicing with the others in the living room and when he had finished and they had left to go freshen up, the sun had begun setting, he looked out of the ship and smiled as to how beautiful the sun look and at the very same time, Adora passed by and she left staring at it and a smiled appeared on her face.

"It looks good on you," Alix said and she flinched then looked at him and he smiled at her.

"That looked genuine," she replied.

"My smile?" he asked and she nodded then he chuckled.

'Yeah, thought it always was, never realized it, what are you going to do now?" he asked as he clutched his chest and her eyes widened.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"It's nothing, I will go freshen up, then I will join you guys for dinner," he responded then left.

Adora lowered her head as the star marking appeared in her eyes and she saw it in the reflection on a glass and she turned around to look at Alix as he left.

She wondered why the ability had started acting up again and then realized that the time where Alix would break free was near and she sighed as Ifrit approached her.

He tapped her on the shoulder after seeing she was lost in her thoughts and she looked at him and he smiled at her.

"What's on your mind?" he asked.

"It's nothing, it's all coming to an end now, very fast, who knows how long..." she responded and he patted her on the shoulder.

"Alix, all of this has to do with him, doesn't it?" he asked and she clenched her fists then he smiled.

"You don't have to answer, I already know the answer to that question, I can read you Adora, that look in your eyes, I know it very well, it lits up now, that's good, you are not the girl I used to live in anymore, you have grown as much as they have, maybe more," he responded before hugging her and her eyes widened then she hugged him back and he smiled before sighing in relief.

"I became the brother you never had, right?" he asked and Alix saw them and heard what Ifrit asked her and he smiled.

He came back because he left his phone in the living room but didn't want to interrupt and decided to leave it be.

Adora then raised off of Ifrit and he smiled at her as she stared up at him.

"Did I get that spot? Did I earn it as yet?" he asked and she smiled at him.

"You made that spot a long time ago, Ifrit, didn't think I would have to say that out loud, but you are right about everything, we have all changed because we have each other, a family of its own," she responded and he patted her on the head.

"Both of them are right, a powerful demon brother, not bad," Alix mumbled with a smiled before going to his room to freshen up.

"Well, I am going to freshen up also I will tell the others about a few more things if they need to know, starting from my past, it's time it all comes out to the board, don't you think?" she asked.

"Yes, it is time to let certain things out and keep the ones that has to only be told on the right time, a certain time," he responded.

"I know, well, I will see you for dinner," she said and he nodded then left and Adora smiled.

Adora then went to her room to freshen up since she didn't want to be late for dinner and join the others.

While she was taking her bath, Alix had finished and while he was getting dressed, he noticed within the mirror that the star markings had appeared in his eyes once again and he was confused as to why they kept on showing up and knew who might have the answer but also knew that he couldn't push things too much.

At that time, Alix knew that a lot of the mystery revolved around him and he had every intention to find out since one mission always gets him new insights on things.

A while after they had all finished freshening up and doing what they had to, they went to the living room and Adora went to the kitchen to help the others with dinner.

When they were finished, the others helped them and brought the food to the living room where they placed it on the table as well as things for them to drink then they all sat down and took their food.

After they began eating, Adora glanced at Alix and her eyes narrowed before they began glowing light blue and he glanced at her and smiled when he saw.

"Want something?" he asked with a smirk and she flinched before looking at him then smiled.

"No, nothing," she responded and he scoffed before pouring her a glass of drink and handing it to her and she accepted it then thanked him.

"If you want to ask something then go ahead and do it, I will answer in the best way I can as well," he said and she scoffed then sipped the drink before continuing to eat their food.

"Guys," Scott said as he looked at his phone and they looked at him.

"What's the matter?" Alix asked.

"It seems as though we will be arriving at our destination tomorrow afternoon," he responded and Alix smiled.

"That's good news," he said and Scott as well as the others nodded.

"There is other good news, in a way," Kyris said then threw his phone towards Adora and she caught it and saw it was a message from Xemon and she sighed then smiled before passing the phone around.

Xemon had messaged his brother to tell him that the kingdom was being secured, the king and queen had begun preparation just in case they had to fight a war for their own survival and seeing that they were all preparing made Alix and the others feel a bit more at ease.
