Durin's Diary

Chapter 260 Chapter 10.5: Alyssa Idar I

After saying goodbye to Durin, Alyssa brought her cousin Astrid to the pet area.

As for Astrid, Alyssa had known her since she was very young. At that time, she had just awakened the ability that Durin now calls psychic power. She could read the thoughts of people who appeared in front of her.

There was nothing at the beginning, after all, no one knew anything.

But when Astrid grew up a little, her parents died fighting on the front line, and Alyssa's cousin became autistic.

She seldom spoke to outsiders and held her books every day. Only her grandfather and very close relatives like Alyssa could chat with her.

Alyssa still remembers the party she took Astrid to one day.

There was a girl, perhaps resentful that Astrid had taken her place at the party, who called her a freak.

Then Astrid lost control, she floated up, and then the girl jumped out from the second floor while screaming.

That was truly a nightmare day. The legend of the Mage Tower, the bishop of the temple, everyone wanted to find traces of the cursed witch on Astrid.

Until the original creator appeared and saved her.

But from then on, all the children didn't want to make friends with her. They all said she was a monster.

And Astrid hid herself in the North, in the small building her parents left her.

Elisa's grandfather tried to find a husband for her more than once, but when the local boys in Copenhagen heard it was her, they didn't dare to approach her. Some boys from other places liked her looks, but she refused every time, threatening to commit suicide.

Originally, Alyssa thought that her cousin might be trapped in front of the fire in that small building for the rest of her life.

Until one day, she saw the detective and the doctor in the book that Alyssa brought her.

She saw the words on the title page.

Death ruins just one day, stress ruins every day.

Astrid tried to stand up and walk out of the room again, but was soon blown back to the fire by the cold wind.

But Alyssa understood that her cousin was getting stronger.

And this was indeed the case. When Mr. Durin met her, it seemed as if it was fate. Astrid decided to follow Mr. Durin and leave the small building where she had been trapped for eight years.

This year, she is fifteen years old.

"Sister Alyssa, none of these little animals are as cute as the white-faced owl." Astrid, who was beside her, held the little owl against her chest and looked at the little animals in the store.

"Yeah, but even though they're not as cute as white-faced owls, they're still cute, right?" Alyssa asked with a smile.

"Yeah, it's very cute." Astrid said as she stretched out her hand. Her cautiousness was rewarded by the cub licking her palm.

The girl smiled happily: "It seems that it recognizes me as its mother."

"That's incredible." Alyssa smiled and reached out to touch the cub in front of her. It was a little bear, and it would be many times bigger than Astrid in the future.

"Ladies, if you like, I can give you a discount." The store manager was a dark-skinned lady who must have been a native of the Southern Islands. No one knew who had taught her the universal subject, and she spoke it so accurately.

"Alyssa, can we buy it?" "If you really want to keep it and won't abandon it, there's no problem." This is what Alyssa thought - although Astrid is older than Mr. Durin, she is just a child in terms of her character, and it's nice to keep a pet, especially a bear.

“By the way, what is the gender of this bear?” Alyssa asked the store manager’s wife.

"It's a girl," Astrid added with a smile.

"Yes, miss, you have a sharp eye. It is indeed a female bear." The lady said with a smile.

“Okay, help us pack the boxes, I’ll pay.” Alyssa said as she took out her wallet.

She is rich now. Durin gives the girl the same amount of pocket money every month, and Alyssa also has an increased salary from the family. If someone close to Durin does not have money in her pocket, the Idar family will be laughed at by the entire assassin circle.

I was still paying when I heard a disgusting shout from behind me.

"Hey, isn't this Alyssa and your weird cousin?" The owner of the sarcastic words was a young girl with brown hair. She crossed her arms and had a look of disgust on her face.

But the three young men behind her didn't think so. Some of them even blamed the young woman: "Aina, how can you say that about Miss Alyssa and the young lady beside her?"

“Aina was beaten by my cousin when she was little, and we haven’t gotten along since then.” Alyssa looked at the situation and felt that a fight would not break out, so she glared at the young girl in front of her.

"Aina, you hate me because of your own fault. Every time you see me, you call me a freak, but it's just because you don't have the talent of a spellcaster and you're jealous of me." Astrid held the pet box in one hand and the shoulder strap of her bag containing books with the other.

"Enough! Astrid! We are all the Duke's children! Don't force me!" Perhaps her scars were exposed, the young girl named Ina screamed.

"Your jealousy is growing day by day, and your absurdity is almost insane, Ina. You may never let go of your hatred for me, I understand very well." Astrid's words completely ignited Ina's anger. The three black wolves beside her bared their fangs and pounced on her as their master wished.

At the same time, Aina pulled a pistol from her waist holster.

"You're crazy!" Alyssa subconsciously pulled out her magic weapon.

So Aina pointed the gun at Alyssa with a distorted face and fired the first shot.

"You're crazy!" The peer next to her grabbed the pistol slide and pressed the trigger with his thumb to prevent her from firing the second shot.

And Alyssa felt dizzy, and when she woke up, she saw that one of her horns was broken - the bullet grazed her head and broke her horn. She was going to kill her!
The angry girl quickly stepped forward and punched Aina in the face as she was still fighting with the boy for the gun.

She turned her head and spat out several teeth.

"You want to kill me!" Alyssa popped out the sharp blade on her wrist: "I should have killed you just now!"

"Alyssa, stop fighting!" Ina's cousin advised.

"You're still speaking for outsiders!" Ina screamed.

“What’s going on?” The question from behind calmed Alyssa’s nervous heart.

The backbone of the family has arrived.

Du Lin will definitely seek justice for himself.
