After he came back from the forest it had become quite dark . Though he ran to reach his house he was still very late. Very very late according to a certain demon .....
HE had to listen to his mom's scolding for quite a long time . Her insults are way more punishing than giving him lots of work to do or hitting him .
Allen's father and younger sister were worried that something had happen to him but did not scold him as they felt pity towards him when 'MOM' was scolding him .

ALEX POV
' Allen might be strong even when compared to some adults . But he has been acting a little to strange . He sometimes is able to think way better than me even though he is just 10 years old . And there is no way he looks like a 10 year old brat'
Allen was already a little taller than his sister though she was almost three years older to him .

{The following day Allen had finished all his chores that were assigned to him by his mom . He wakes up early that is at sunrise and does all his work before noon . He could now be seen sitting under a tree in his orchard / garden . Though it looked to others as if he was resting he was meditating .}
Looking at this Kira thought , ' ... fufu I wish what brother sis thinking about '
"Hey Alex what are you doing ?"
"..hu! .. Oh I am just resting here "
She tilts her head and points her finger against her own cheek . She looked extremely beautiful with her straight brown hair and amber eyes .
"I am getting bored . You promised me that you would take me to town "
"..haa?? .. What . I never said today , mom said I cannot go to the town before i was ten but maybe if i ask her when she is in a good mood she might just allow us ."
"What luck , you had to ruin her mood yesterday . If not WE COULD HAVE RELAXED IN THE TOWN YOU IDIOT."
She says the last words with a colder and louder voice different from her usual sweet and soft voice .
" Hey I cannot do anything about that I told you that i fell asleep "
"There is no way on this land that you were sneaking out into to edge of the forest only to sleep . I know many of your secrets dont you dare fool me "
" Ehh ... Now you sound more like mom "
"Huuu? I am not as bad as mom "
" Maybe you would turn out to be like mom "
" *pout* hmm . well whatever "

After pleading from their mother and coxing her they were able to get their permission to go to the market place .
Though there are many criminals in the kingdom enough to give an entire guild a lot of trouble , their town was very safe and peaceful as security is very strict and many noble men and women build their holiday homes here . But they still had to be careful about their belongings being pickpocketed .
Though Allen used to go to the town hall directly with his father to sell some of the recovery portions which were diluted under his mothers name. He had to dilute t as he did not want them to know that there was a portion maker that has the capacity to rival those that in the castle .

Allen got his things ready and carried a few things though he could put them all in the pockets dimensional space , he did want to look empty handed as the shopkeepers will think of him as a robber .
His sister Kira rarely had gone to the town and wanted to visit soon as she wanted to do shopping . And as you know it is very tiering to be tagging along with a girl or women for shopping as they can drag you around for hours .
The town was a trip of 30 minutes on a carriage .
Their father had come along to drop them as riding on the horse was way faster than going by carriage and he had some business in the hunters guild .
" Wow .. thats a very huge crowd . " Kira said as they saw at the town . no matter how many times a person sees there will always be a change in the appearance of the streets almost every street .
" hmm . Looks like it . dont get lost kids . and even if you get lost please come to the spot " Dad said worryingly .

I was being carried by mom and my sister was holding dad's hands .
It was the festival of ancient fire god and it was very crowded . But at one region when dad was speaking casually to his fellow hunters mom realized that Kira was missing . They both freaked out and started running around frantically , I was calm and stated using search by using my mana control .' Search ' was a magic that could detect monsters but i never used spells in the first place .
I was immediately able to pinpoint her location . I told mom to go to the location i point out .
WE found her crouching down and crying so hard that she had got lost . She cried a little to much that she was not able to talk at all until the next day . And was bashed up pretty badly .
I dont ever wanna make my mom that angry ever .
That how we came up with a plan of meeting at the particular spot even if we get lost .

Allen and Kira were both walking around going into various shops . Well can say that Allen was being dragged by Kira .
'Women really do have infinite stamina when it comes to shopping ' Allen thought when he was being dragged into another store .
"Hey brother .. look there ! THEY ARE SELLING SO MANY ASCESSORIES "
Allen was currently trying to find the presence that he could feel staring at them .
" oh.. ahh " Before Allen could say anything he gets pulled by his sister .
"Hello uncle ..., "
" Hello there missy and uh .. mister ? Are you fine ?"
Allen currently looked like he was gonna shrivel up .
"uh.... I am fine "
"... OK ... Well missy what would you like to buy , there are lucky charms and ..... . . . . ."
The man kept continued talking about alll the merchandise he had displayed .
"Hey brother . can you choose for me ?"
"Uh? ,.... Ok ... .. Maybe the yellow hair pin looks good as it matches your amber eyes . "
"Then its decided I am taking this "
Allens eyes widen with shock . He never thought that his sister would say yes to an accessory as she really is very picky . But Immediately choose to buy the one he choose .
' Maybe I should start giving her hints of what to take , that way it would be fast . '
They buy the hair pin He puts it on her hair and fixes her hair and they move to the shop for 'mages and hunters' as he wanted to sell out some portions .
