Chapter 71 Wolf
Upon seeing how the bests were fighting and listening to their master's command, Alix got curious and a bit excited at the same time.
"How did you handle this guy?" Alix asked, his gaze fixed on the tiger.
"I saved his life, he pledged his loyalty to me, I had to get used to him, and we trained a lot together, you have to learn how to work together for teamwork, you can always make your companion stronger that way," Adora replied as Alix signed up his name to fight next and a few people recognized him from the tournament.
"Well, I'll take my time with this because it's my first time," Alix said as Adora placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Let him fight and observe your opponent's master and how they collaborate; in a beast-on-beast fight, it's best to let them do their thing, rust me, whoever your opponent may be, he will win," Adora replied.
"That guy is just ordering his beast around, it's like slavery," Alix said and Adora looked at him.
"I know, that's why you get to choose how you interact with your beasts; will they be another set of powerful creatures you just want to use for your own gain, or will they be friends who help each other in times of need? Your decision, Alix, make it wisely, you are not insane "Adora responded, and he sighed with relief.
"You are mean and kind, what else are you, your highness?" he asked.
"I am a mixed breed, so you get everything in one, which is good for a lady, right?" She asked, leaning in close, and he pulled back.
"In your case, you are definitely one of a kind," Alix responded.
"Be careful, Alix, I might be the one who traps you," she warned, winking at him and he smirked.
"I don't think so," he said as the announcer called his name and he went to the side of the cage as the tiger roared while entering that cage, causing everyone to gasp.
"He's frightening," Alix said as a tall white and blue striped wolf with red eyes walked into the arena, he was fierce, with shackles on his neck that disappeared as the cage closed.
"That one is strong," Alix said, noticing the immense darkness surrounding the wolf.
"I want him," Alix declared.
'Not going to happen,' Maila said as she approached Alix, who looked at her as the fight began.
"Why not, and what are you doing here?" he inquired as she locked her gaze on the wolf.
"I come here a lot, I've won a lot of money, I want the wolf, if he wins, I will be able to make a challenge, and the owner of that wolf will not refuse," she responded.
"If the owner gets him back, he or she even seems to be unable to control or even win the trust of that wolf, I can clearly see that the wolf hates its owner and I assure you, you are underestimating that tiger, I will have my hands on that wolf," Alix said, as the tiger jumped up with a roar and its eyes glowing.
It was going to slash the wolf who gave him the death stare and hit him with its tale which sent the tiger to the other side of the cage.
"The wolf, it's as strong as my boy, their fight can be fierce," Adora mumbled as her eyes glowed and she stared at the wolf.
"That wolf wants its freedom; it reminds my tiger of his life in the past, which is why they won't go hard on each other," Adora explained as she approached Alix, who smiled and blew a whistle, drawing the tiger's attention.
"Get him to submit," Alix whispered, and the tiger's eyes glowed red as the wolf charged angrily at him. The tiger dodged its attack before striking him against the head with his glowing red paw, causing the wolf to collapse on the ground, and Adora's pet stood on him, pressing it down while staring into its eyes, and the wolf finally submitted.
"I don't like this," Alix said, clenching his fists in rage, and Adora grabbed his arm as Alix stared in hatred at the wolf's owner.
"Don't pick a fight, you won it, you can change that wolf's fate," she said and Maila scoffed.
"Be careful, a lot of people want to get their hands on that wolf, I'll see you around Alix," Maila said as she walked away, winking at him.
"Boy, get off him," Adora said and the tiger did as told then the cage opened and the wolf stood up, still growling, and shackles appeared on its neck and shocked him, causing the wolf to howl in pain, but Alix rushed over to him, grabbed the electric shackle, and ripped it off the wolf's neck.
"He is no longer yours; don't even think about touching him or I will break your neck," Alix said, and the owner laughed.
"Enjoy your time with that waste," the young man said as Alix walked out of the cage, and approached him then punched him across the ground, and Adora smiled.
"Pathetic, fool," Alix commented.
"You son of a bitch," the guy yelled as he rushed up to hit Alix, but Alix's eyes began to glow red and the air became heavy, intimidating the guy.
"W- whatever you can have him, you are monsters alike," the guy yelled as he walked away, and Adora patted Alix on the shoulder, and he returned to normal while the other stared at him.
"That's some presence," Yan observed.
"Tell me about it," Ayden said.
"Let it go," Adora said, and he looked at her sternly before turning to face the wolf who seemed as though he was about to go on a rampage.
"You won it, Alix, that thing is staring at us, I don't want to die by those fangs," Sarah said nervously as Alix closed his eyes and the wolf stared at him with glowing eyes.
