Today was my birthday, and I'm ten years old starting today. My family and friends were the only people at my party. Even though it seems that Regius was a renowned family, which was basically like nobility. But my dad doesn't really like those formal types of parties. So we invited only those who are close to . Not that I mind, in fact, if dad invited more than these it might not be as fun.
There was so much food on the table I think that even if we had triple the amount of people gathered we wouldn't be able to finish this much food. I know we're pretty rich, but co on, at least let's not waste food.
When the party began the first to greet was my little sister. "Big bro, happy birthday!" My seven-year-old sister hugged while saying that. Next were my dad and mom who also ended up hugging after greeting happy birthday.
We weren't even halfway through the party, and my mom was already crying while my dad was holding it in.
"Oh! My cute little Edge is already ten. Next year you'll be going to school... No! Edge, you need to stay here with Mommy! Don't leave, Mommy behind!" My mom started yelling at , while my dad held my mom's shoulder and looked at her with teary eyes.
"It's alright Seri. This too is part of growing up. Our Edge is growing into a great man. When he cos ho he might be bringing his future bride or maybe future brides...." While my dad was saying trying to comfort my mom, he suddenly changed the topic. Now it seems like his tears were turning from water into blood.
It was at that mont, I noticed sothing weird in what he said. "Brides? I can have more than one wife?" I asked curiously. My mom started crying louder and my dad was now really shedding with the sa color as blood from his eyes and mouth.
"My son really is trying to get wives!" My father started yelling. Sarah was now holding my hand tightly. Eri looked at , and though her face was still as expressionless as ever. I thought I saw a black aura surrounding her, but that can't be, right?
"No dad I was just curious if you can actually have more than one wife." Hearing what I said, my mom started looking at in despair.
"My son is going to replace with so b*tch from God knows where she ca from! No, your mommy won't allow it! Edge can only marry a girl stronger than mommy! And that's final!"
Now my mom was saying ridiculous things. My dad doesn't like he will answer any ti soon. Surprisingly the one to answer my question was Kyle Chi, Gerard's father.
"Yeah, you can get as many wives as you want. As long as you can support them and as long as they agree to be with other wives. Well usually girls fight to be the first wife and it's difficult to make a girl agree to be the second wife."
So that's how it goes here, polygamy is allowed. Then Gerard ca forward and greeted along with his signature hearty laugh. "Hahaha, Happy birthday Edge! So you're aiming for a harem. Well, a guy as good as you, I bet you can make a whole kingdom your harem. Hahaha, that would be fun to watch. But honestly Edge you need to look at things closely if you know what I an."
After that whole fiasco, the party continued. Eri ca and greeted as well but she simply said: "Happy birthday" that's all. So we ate, we had so little gas then it was ti to open the presents.
The first present I opened was from the Chi family. It was leather gloves, I rember the first ti I started my adventure in my previous world. I also used leather gloves back then. I thanked both Gerard and Roland for the gift.
Next was the gift of the Slynn family. Their gift was so kind of paper charm. When I looked at the charm confused, Eri's mother noticed.
"This is a charm made by my family. It's a charm to bring you luck at tis of peril. I don't know how effective it is but my parents' used to say this is the greatest charm of the warbeast."
I see so it's sothing like a talisman. I bowed and thanked them for the great present. Next was my very own family's present. It seems dad and mom couldn't decide on one thing so they got two things.
From Dad, he gave a sword. It was a silver longsword with little to no decorations, but I could see it was a fine quality blade. My father then started boasting that it was a blade made by a famous blacksmith that he t on one of his adventures.
He was saving it for his son's exclusive use. I hugged my dad and thanked him. He then hugged back. "Co on. praise your old man for such a great gift!"
"Dad is really great, thanks for the great gift." While my dad was basking in the joy of my praise, my mom looked at dad and smirked.
"Here's my present Edge, my son." My mom then presented with a large staff. The top had a crescent shape and at the edge of the staff was a four-inch magic stone.
"There that's my gift. Though Edge has been training with magic all this while. I know Edge has already greatly surpassed my magic capacity. But with this staff, Edge can use spells that are one rank above his ability. A magic staff was ant to enhance one's magic. So the larger the magic stone the greater the enhancent. See your mommy got you a great gift, right? So co on praise mommy."
I hugged my mom and happily answered her. "Thanks, mom this is a great gift."
"See that my dear husband. Edge said it was a great present."
"He also said mine was a great present have you forgotten Selina?" My parents' then started arguing who had the better present, when my sister gave sothing.
"Happy birthday Big Brother this is Sarah's gift to Big Brother." With a smile, my sister handed to a drawing. It was a crude drawing but I could feel my sister's love for in the drawing. She drew and her playing in the flower field and with big letters she wrote. "I LOVE YOU ONII-AN!"
She forgot to write the C and the H but who cares. My sister is sooooooo cute. "This is the greatest present ever. Thanks, Sarah." I hugged my sister tightly while my parents seem to be kneeling in despair.
