Chapter 59 Peace(2/2)
"No, I just suddenly wanted to eat it," Lorenzo paused and then said, "It seems like today is my birthday."
"Birthday?"
Arthur was a little surprised.
"Hmm, how could we beggars remember our birthdays? Then the priests regarded God's birthday as our birthdays...probably."
Lorenzo also said with some uncertainty, "Anyway, it's just a matter of atmosphere."
"Ah... then I'd better wish you a happy birthday."
Arthur said kindly, which made Lorenzo even more uncomfortable.
"So, what's the matter with you?" Lorenzo couldn't bear it anymore and asked.
"Nothing, I was just going to the Platinum Palace to report the situation, and then I saw a familiar guy on the roadside, so I stopped by," Arthur said.
The atmosphere was silent for a while, and Arthur looked at the city that had recovered from the disaster, with many complicated scenes shining in his eyes.
"It's all over, Lorenzo."
"Um."
"What are you going to do next?"
"Take a break and then become a detective. That's how it should be. Return to your old job."
After Lorenzo said something, he thought of something. He turned his head and looked at Arthur.
"What about you? Are you ready to retire too?"
"More or less, I went to the Platinum Palace today mainly to discuss this matter. Now that the dark fate has been ended, those monsters wandering in the world will continue to decline and die."
"So is the purification agency ready to disband?"
Lorenzo asked, the prey disappeared, the hunter should retire, just like the demon hunting order.
"No, but we will transform. Even if the darkness is ended, it will still take some time for the remaining monsters in the world to die completely. We can't wait any longer, and we won't allow these risks to exist. We will continue to chase
The remaining darkness will this time be led by those who built the country, and hunt among the countries."
Arthur talked about his future prospects.
"But I am indeed retiring. It should take a few months to hand over the responsibility and power to the next generation of young people. Then I will retire with Merlin."
Lorenzo thought of something when he heard this, and whispered to Arthur.
"Don't tell Eve, this is what I said," he said mysteriously, "Do you remember the island you prepared for her? She seems to be thinking of a way to trick you there."
Arthur was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"I've known this for a long time. She's my daughter. How could I not guess what she's thinking?" He finished laughing and sighed, feeling like he was letting go of a heavy responsibility. "She doesn't like it, so she might as well leave it to me.
, when I retire this time, I plan to move there with Merlin."
Lorenzo had a strange feeling when he heard this, as if he had gotten to know Arthur again. There was no longer the force and oppression before, and now they were just like ordinary friends.
"Ah... it sounds good, but I didn't expect that I would be considered someone worthy of your stopping and saying hello?"
Lorenzo still remembered Arthur's boredom with him and asked, "Aren't you annoying me?"
"Of course, you were so annoying before. If it weren't for you, Eve would be on that island now." Arthur complained.
Lorenzo was silent for a few seconds and then asked again.
"Then are you still bothering me now?"
Arthur looked at Lorenzo's face and said.
"It's still annoying, but I think I can tolerate it a little bit."
Lorenzo laughed and picked up the leftover cake, "I'm going home to clean up and prepare for the festival in the evening. Do you want to come?"
Arthur shook his head and stood up together. One walked to the end of the street, while the other got on the carriage.
"I have friends too, Lorenzo, and I want to be with them at the festival tonight."
Without saying anything else, Lorenzo waved to Arthur, the carriage disappeared into the street, and Lorenzo merged into the crowd.
