Chapter 2 The Legendary Credo
When Alice raised her head again, the vulnerability and hurt in her eyes had dissipated, leaving only pure indifference.
Indifference can be a shield to protect Alice, but it cannot resist all the trauma in her heart.
But Alice has no choice.
"It was you who killed those adopted companions, Alice...you unknown monster!"
"You will get your comeuppance, you ugly monster!"
"Get out, get out of the Love Orphanage, you are not welcome here for a minute!"
"Go away! Go away! Go away!"
The children's shouts were mixed together, and they formed a ball and hit Alice who was standing alone in the corner.
The veiled "ugly" Alice looked at all this as if she were looking at a ball of air, without any waves in her eyes.
The adults in charge of the children watched quietly, without any intention of stopping or scolding them. They silently acquiesced to the children's yelling and cursing. It seemed that the culprit who killed the adopted children was Alice.
Faced with the sudden accusations and injustices, and the vicious expressions on her young faces, Alice did not cry.
Alice didn't care about them. Alice looked at Edward. The boy had no intention of looking at Alice again. It seemed that even eye contact had become a shame. Edward's face sank into the shadows, as if his face was empty without any facial features.
horrible.
Alice looked at Edward steadily, although Edward never responded to Alice's gaze.
Alice's heart gradually sank to the bottom. The light of hope in her eyes was like wax blown out by the wind, and dimmed and fell silent with a snap.
At this time, the children got the silent permission of the elders and managers, and intensified their efforts. They were not willing to show off with their mouths. They had long disliked this ugly Alice.
Therefore, the children threw banana peels, waste paper, empty cans and other garbage over without hesitation. Alice was hit on the forehead by a can that came at high speed, and the wound was bruised and purple.
There was an unknown flame burning in Alice's chest. Alice felt that her emotions seemed to be out of control, and she urgently needed to find an outlet, otherwise, the consequences would be unpredictable...
When she realized this, a seven or eight-year-old boy was rushing over with his fists waving.
Alice opened her mouth and let out a silent cry. The bright lights in the room suddenly exploded into a large spark. With Alice as the center, an invisible wave of air suddenly set off.
It's like a transparent tsunami on land.
The running boy, the peels, cans and waste paper still flying in the air, the shouting children approaching, the rotating ceiling fan above the head, and the old tables and chairs around were all blown away by the "wave" and flew in all directions.
Stumbled over the wall!
At this moment, Alice's mind went blank. She did not want to harm the children in the Love Orphanage, even if they had hurt Alice by any means. But Alice believed that she was completely different from them.
Alice has not learned to control her emotions, especially after facing the betrayal of her most trusted friend, how should she choose to deal with this ruthless world.
Alice was not a child born into a loving family. Alice was a girl abandoned by her parents from the very beginning.
Alice knew that she shouldn't give up on herself. If she could control her emotions, the children wouldn't be like now, covered in injuries. The orphanage wouldn't be in a mess like it was after being ransacked by robbers.
She seemed to have returned to the time when she was five years old. When she used her own abilities to rescue the milk-colored cat with a middle parting, the people around her screamed in panic. Only this time, the frightened adults turned into children, and their gazes
He looked at Alice, the initiator of the "transparent tsunami" in panic but angrily.
"...monster! Monster, monster!"
"Get out! Get out of here, you ugly monster!"
Alice looked at the children lying on the ground, shouting in anger and moaning in pain. Alice stepped back step by step, she wanted to escape, there was no point in staying here and continuing to live.
But where can she go?
Alice doesn't know.
"Excuse me, is Alice here?"
The door of the Love Orphanage was suddenly pushed open, and a handsome and tall man appeared outside. He asked politely with a charming voice full of magnetism.
No one expected the arrival of this handsome man, nor did they think that this man with extraordinary temperament would come to inquire about the whereabouts of the notoriously ugly Alice.
Alice, who has a purple birthmark that takes up one-half of her face, is the ugliest and ugliest child in the All-Love Orphanage. No one likes Alice.
Although the birthmark on Alice's face had long since disappeared, and after the birthmark disappeared, Alice actually became the most beautiful child in the Love Orphanage, but no one except Alice would know this secret. Including Edward.
"...It's me."
Alice mustered up the courage to say it under the astonished attention of everyone. Her beautiful eyes were lit up with a faint light, and despair seemed to be leaving her.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Alice. Due to some unexpected things, I delayed my trip to find Miss Alice, so I only found you now. In order to compensate for your loss, I have decided to send you to Kerry in person.
Multi-Academy, if you don't mind... Oh, I'm Mondlis, I'll be happy to help you."
The handsome young man said this in a respectful yet cordial tone, and from beginning to end he did not pay attention to anyone present except Alice.
Creedo Academy is a magic school that only exists in legends. In reality, no one has ever seen Creedo. Even if someone accidentally discovered it, they would not gain any trust from people.
If it weren't for the extraordinary temperament of the man named Mondris in front of them, everyone would probably regard him as a liar who abducted children, or a mentally retarded person with a monotonous mind.
After all, it is unbelievable to leave so many beautiful children alone and only have an ugly girl like Alice.
"Why are you looking for Alice? Sir."
Edward, who had been silent in the corner, suddenly spoke, his tone was puzzled and a bit curious, and there was a slight surprise hidden in his dark brown eyes.
"Oh, handsome little boy, are you Alice's friend? If not, I have no comment."
The handsome man who called himself Mondris refused easily in a relaxed tone.
Just because others don't know about Alice's dream doesn't mean that Edward doesn't know about it. Alice has also heard Alice mention the existence of Credo Magic Academy in a longing tone. She didn't expect anyone from Credo to come here.
