Chapter 105 Birthday

"There was no accident."

Annan spent April very safely and smoothly.

Time has come to May unknowingly.

A few days have passed, but the White Knight has not suddenly come to the door. Roderick, who took the initiative to contact the White Knight, has not been thoroughly investigated, and the identity of the vampire has not been revealed.

Detective Antonio, who was privately commissioned by the captain of the White Knight to investigate, although he still had not come into contact with the secrets of the White Knight, he did get some useful latest information.

"At the end of April, a lot of white knights came to our city. However, those white knights were not investigating serious black magic incidents that occurred locally. They were investigating someone else."

Annan was a little surprised when he heard this accurate news. Even the magic professor Dulan was a little confused about what the white knight was doing.

"In short, there are a lot of white knights here, but these white knights are essentially divided into two different groups of investigation teams. The one with the larger number is the new white knight team that comes to investigate unknown objects. It is estimated that they are officially There are ten or more white knights.”

As for the original White Knights who were responsible for investigating local black magic incidents, they also received additional support, but in terms of manpower and resources, they did not seem to have as many as the new investigation team.

But no matter what, now that there are many white knights operating in this city, it is best for Annan and the others to keep a low profile and never attract attention.

"It seems that the incident at Veronica Buck's orphanage has not been discovered yet. That's right. White knights are not omnipotent. In fact, just like ordinary police officers, white knights can only take precautions before they happen. , if a black magic incident really occurs, then deal with it.”

A lot of major events have indeed happened in Kedax City recently. The two local gangs have been seriously damaged, which has affected many aspects. The black magic incident that the official intends to suppress must also involve many people.

However, the entire city as a whole is still running smoothly as always. It will not be said that it has stopped because some people died or someone is missing.

Annan welcomed his birthday in this subtle atmosphere where ordinary citizens were unaware of any danger.

May 6, Annan. Grant's birthday, today's birthday is also the day when he turns eighteen.

Annan didn't feel much about this so-called adult day. He had been an adult for who knows how long in his previous life.

Of course, for Annan's relatives in this world, this day still needs to be celebrated properly.

"Annan, dad contacted me last night. He should be back before dusk."

Annan's cousin Catherine. Grant, I took a special day off today to celebrate with my brother and father.

"Dad should have come back a few days ago, but I heard that he encountered some accidents on the road, which caused him to be a little late. But that's okay. The city was not peaceful before. The two gangs were fighting each other. I shouldn't be able to come back today. In danger."

Then, just as Catherine said, before nightfall, Annan's uncle Mark. Glenn, he came back after a long journey.

"Annan, happy birthday!"

mark. As soon as Grant entered the house, he laughed happily and congratulated Annan.

This long-distance truck driver who worked in other places before today is a lean middle-aged man with a slightly protruding beer belly. His appearance is not even remotely similar to his pretty daughter Catherine.

"Dad, go take a shower first. You smell strange."

Catherine walked out of the kitchen and pushed her father unceremoniously, asking him to tidy up his appearance.

"Hahaha."

mark. Grant didn't mind his daughter's sarcasm at all. He laughed heartily a few times, and then followed his daughter's instructions to go to the bathroom to take a shower.

"Happy birthday!"

Soon after, a small birthday celebration for a family of three began.

Annan, who has long adapted to his current status, is like a simple young man, talking and laughing with his relatives at the dinner table, and accepting the celebrations from their relatives.

"Uncle, Catherine, I have something very important to tell you."

Annan felt that the time was almost up, so he straightened his face and put on a serious expression.

It was his birthday today, and he had expected to have a showdown with his relatives around him.

"What's wrong? So serious."

Uncle Mark joked over a beer.

"Could it be that you made a certain female classmate pregnant? Hahaha!"

"dad……"

Catherine gave her father an annoyed look.

"Annan, do you have something to say?"

"Yes, today is my birthday, so it's time to tell you."

Annan nodded and cleared his throat with a pretentious cough.

"To be honest, I awakened my magic power not long ago and became a magician."

"……ah?"

Mark opened his mouth in astonishment.

Catherine was a little surprised when she suddenly heard her brother say this, but she quickly reacted.

"You have awakened your magic power...this is a good thing!"

Thanks to the popularization of modern education, magicians who had a mysterious veil in the medieval times are still not often encountered by ordinary people in modern times, but they do not know anything about them.

Catherine did not doubt her cousin's story. There was no need to joke about this kind of thing on her birthday.

"Annan, what are your plans?"

Catherine felt that her brother might have been prepared to surprise her family members at this time.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

"Uncle, Catherine, if possible, I would like to enroll in the Magic Academy next year."

Annan, who originally thought about performing magic on the spot if the two relatives in front of him didn't believe it, saw that things went so smoothly and spoke his mind without any nonsense.

"Magic Academy..."

Mark put down the beer in his hand with a strange expression.

"I remember that the tuition fee for the Magic Academy seemed to be...but there is no problem!"

Mark slapped the dining table hard.

"Don't worry, I still have some savings. Even if I have to borrow money from the bank, I will let you go to a magic school!"

"If it's not enough, I can pay for it."

Catherine was not as excited as her father. She calmly expressed her support.

"Well, actually, you don't have to worry about tuition fees..."

Annan took out the introduction brochure of the Magic Academy that he had prepared in advance and handed it to the two relatives.

"Actually, after I discovered that I had awakened my magic power, I secretly went to the local magic academy and met a magic professor there..."
