Durin's Diary

Durin stroked the black cat on the armrest of his chair, sitting on the black leather sofa. Through the glasses perched on his nose, his gaze passed over the long table in front of him and settled on the man kneeling on the carpet: "I understand, you've made money in Naples, your business has been very successful, and you've led a happy life. You've had those secret police, friends in both the law and the underground, and even the Royal Family speaking on your behalf." "You don't need a friend like me, I know that. You're afraid of owing me a favor, and you don't want to get involved in troubles." "But now you come to me and say, 'I beg you, Mr. Durin of the Corleon family, please help me seek justice, so that my life and my family will not suffer and sink into despair.' Yet, in your eyes, I was nothing more than a second-rate artist involved in movies and music. Even at the brink of death, you still show me such disrespect, not even willing to call me by my title... Keeper of Secrets."

Chapter 179: Determination

When old Yishu arrived, he saw Durin and appeared somewhat surprised.

After listening to Durin recount everything that had just happened with Pool, the elder nodded. He personally opened a Teleportation Passage for Pool and his companions. Once they had left, the elder looked at Durin, his eyes filled with a complex expression, "In the end, you turned out to be just like your brother."

"He said he wanted to create a future for his companions where their young wouldn't have to suffer from hunger or the cold." Durin stood where he was, looking at his old mentor Yishu, "Such a future is beautiful, Grandpa, so I am prepared to supervise them closely. If they forget the vows they made today, or if they turn into something else over time, I will step in to punish them."

"Is it just because you are of the Fantasy Race, that you will live much longer than they will?"
