Magic Night

Late at night, at No. 19, Tibe Avenue, the lights of the second-floor window were still on.

Albert had read the contents of the books. He easily upgraded his fast memory to level 2. His memory had become much stronger compared to ordinary people. No human possessed this ability, at least not as strong as Albert.

Just now, Albert discovered that he had another unfamiliar skill: Wizard Blood, level 0.

Normal experience cannot upgrade this skill, it was only possible through skill points.

"This is the first time I have seen this situation," Albert hesitated, but still upgraded the wizard bloodline to level 1 using the skill points.

After upgrading his skills, Albert found out that his efficiency in learning magic had become higher. In other words, his magic power had become stronger, and his mastery of the Flash spell had become faster. After only a dozen minutes of practice, he had upgraded the skill to 1 level.

It meant that Albert had mastered the spell, and he can easily use it even without paying special attention to it.

'Should he invest all his skill points?'

Albert paused. Skill points were difficult to obtain. He needed to reserve some for himself as well for emergency use.

However, after thinking about it carefully, when he finally decided to use the remaining skill points, however he realized that he could only level up once!

What a pity!

After Albert raised the wizard bloodline to level 2, he didn't feel any changes in him.

Was it a passive skill?

Albert was a little depressed, but he didn't regret it immediately, he walked out of the room, and began to try the lock opening spell.

With a wand in one hand, he opened the "Standard Spell: Elementary" in the other, and followed the gestures taught in the book, and swiped his twice, which followed a curve like a reverse S-shape, it felt very awkward.

After a few more attempts, Albert again locked the door with his one hand and then swiped the doorknob with his wand in reverse S pattern.

Albert stretched out his hand again and twisted the doorknob a few times, but the lock did not open.

Failed.

Although the failure was expected, there was still good news. There appeared another unlocking spell on the panel, it had no experience.

"Albert, what are you doing?" A girl's voice was heard from behind, and Niya in her pyjamas appeared at the end of the corridor.

Albert turned his head and looked at his sister. He felt like a thief who was caught stealing a snack.

"Why don't you go to bed?" Albert asked.

"Can't sleep!" Niya complained, "It's really cunning of you to practice magic secretly."

Albert was a bit embarrassed, it's like being caught stealing... ahem, stealing desserts, be a little humble, please.

"I want to play too!" Niya said, staring at Albert's wand.

"But this is not a toy!" Albert shook his head. He wouldn't let his sister use this wand.

Little children know the least about restraint, and if they were to do things according to their own preferences, no one knows what big trouble they would cause.

The assumption was that Niya was also a wizard.

After all, Albert himself was a wizard, and so there was a high chance that Niya was a wizard as well, and if his assumption was true, he would not let Niya handle a wand this early.

"You are so sly, aren't you playing with it, too?" Niya complained, like a child with a toy stolen.

"Don't you have to go back to sleep?" Albert changed the subject.

"No, I can't sleep."

"Then I will tell you a story!" Albert took out the key, reopened the door, and walked in.

"Albert is too cunning!" Nya murmured, but she still picked up Tom and walked into Albert's room.

Tom was sniffing around as soon as he entered the room. He seemed to have been looking for owls. He had great estimations about the birdcage by the window.

"Okay, Tom, Jerry is out looking for food!" Albert picked up the shorthair cat, stroked its belly, he did not forget to put the wand in the drawer, locked it, and placed the key safely in his pocket. As a thief himself, Albert was aware of his sister's personality.

"I hate you! Is it necessary to guard it as if I am a thief?" Niya pouted in dissatisfaction

"Do you think I don't know you yet?" Albert rolled his eyes at Nia, "If you get the wand, wouldn't you blow up our house?"

"I won't!" Niya said stubbornly.

"Who knows? You can and don't forget, how you scratched your arm," Albert was reluctant to mention it. "I don't want you to lose one of them one day. The arm, even worse, your life."

"That won't happen," Niya felt a little frustrated.

It was a similar situation. It was not long after Tom arrived at their house, he scratched Niya's arm because of her rude treatment towards Tom. She still remembered that Albert scolded her angrily.

That was the first time Niya saw Albert angry.

"Don't forget the lesson," Albert asked rhetorically, "Do you still want to listen to the story."

"Yes!" Niya leaned on the cushion, caressed Tom's hair, and listened quietly to Albert's fairy tale. He was already very proficient. He used to practice oral English and improve it all the time. After all, he was not an orthodox Englishman. Although he has been engaged after crossing, he still has a little gap in that respect.

It is worth mentioning that he also mastered a foreign language incidentally, and French was also improved by his experience to a level. Albert was regarded as a genius and it was not without any reason.

"Albert, do you think I can use magic in the future?" Niya asked suddenly.

"It should be okay. I can use magic, and Niya should be able to as well," Albert comforted.

"That's because you are a genius and learn everything quickly."

"This has nothing to do with being a genius!" Albert was speechless for a while, "We are siblings! I can, so you should be able to."

"But grandfather can't. He said that his family can do it, but he can't do it," Niya murmured, "Furthermore, Dad can't."

"Even if you can't use magic, you can do other things," Albert comforted.

"It's too cunning, you can already use magic, so you can comfort others with such words. Tom, hit him," Nya grabbed Tom's paw and put it on Albert's face.

As the night got deeper, Niya fell asleep unconsciously.

The door was pushed open, Daisy and Herb in pyjamas walked into the room, looking helplessly at their sleeping daughter.

"Finally she fell asleep," Herb picked up Niya and returned to her room.

"Good night Albert, rest early, don't stay up late, you can read the book tomorrow." Daisy kissed Albert's face and whispered softly, "Your dad and I will not oppose your decision."

"Good night," Albert covered a yawn, reached out, and pushed Tom, this guy just rolled over lazily, as if he didn't intend to move.

"Forget it, good night, Tom." Albert pushed the cat aside, reached out to fiddle with the pillow, and found a comfortable position to lie down, and was ready to sleep. He was also very tired.

After all, magic was a tiring thing.
