The Demon Swordsman
CHAPTER 3

Eldrian who had just returned to his room again got scorned by his friends.

But again Eldrian just silent do not reply their words. Eventually, one of the students asked them to stop.

"Stop talking about Eldrian if you're not as good as him" said the man.

Eldrian certainly knew who the man was, he was Dean Gavrill his closest friend.

"How's your wound, Eldrian?" asked Dean.

"Only a small wound, after all I have also gotten medicine from teacher Seanna" Eldrian replied while showing the medicine he received earlier.

"Good, after all, you also have to recover quickly because soon there will be a big banquet on the continent of Althias" Dean said excitedly.

"Yes, we must not disappoint Philia's teacher and academy at the banquet." replied Eldrian.

Despite being called the actual banquet they had to fight each other to determine who was the greatest and deserved to be number 1.

The banquet itself is held every 5 years, Eldrian himself has only first participated in this banquet because he was not old enough 5 years ago.

Eldrian himself will be 18 years old in a few days.

"Where was the banquet this time, Dean?" asked Eldrian.

"I heard that this time at the Elvern academy, it was quite a distance away from the Philia academy, it would take 3-4 days at most to get there on horseback" Dean explained.

"Then we will spend a lot of time outside the academy" Eldrian said.

Dean nodded in agreement to Eldrian's words, "This is the first time we've spent a long time outside, we've got to have some El fun" Dean said.

The first time ?

Yes, students at the Philia academy are indeed forbidden to roam outside despite the holidays. They can only come out while performing their duties or have obtained permission from Seanna.

"Alright, hurry up and rest El." said Dean.

Eldrian lay on his bed after applying the ointment on his wound.

He closed his eyes so that he quickly fell asleep and entered the dream world.

......................

The Callia family residence...

"Happy birthday Miss Estrella."

"You're not a kid anymore now Estrella"

"Thank you for coming my friends" said the woman, who was called Estrella.

Estrella Callia is the youngest child in the Callia family, a very famous family in the Althias continent.

The Callia family produced many great witches and knights in every generation.

Unfortunately in this generation Estrella's ability makes the Callia family a little embarrassed.

Estrella is not good enough in magic and swords. Moreover, he also likes to make trouble because of his mischievous behavior.

However, Estrella is still liked by many people because she is a friendly and kind girl.

"My sister come quickly, I've taken a nice snack for you to eat" one woman told Estrella.

"Evina's the best" praised Estrella for her older sister.

"This is a special gift I ordered for you my sister" said Evina while giving a gift box that is not so big.

"What is it sister?." asked Estrella curiously.

"Open up to Ella" she replied.

Estrella opened the gift in front of the guests, as soon as she opened it Estrella developed a smile on her face.

"A gun?" asked Estrella.

Estrella hugged her sister very tightly. Their parents and guests also smiled at the behavior of the two young ladies from the Callia family.

Parents enjoy time for drinks and chatting.

The young people were also chatting about the banquet that was soon to be held.

The banquet this time will indeed be held at the Elvern academy located in this city they occupy.

"At the banquet this time I will show my prowess and attract the attention of the beautiful young ladies" said one of the young masters.

"Well, the prettiest one here is Miss Estrella, but we don't know how beautiful women are in other academies." said another young man.

"Any beauty out there is nothing that can beat my sister's beauty" Evina said.

"Miss Evina has always glorified Miss Estrella" they replied.

"Are you also going to take part in the banquet later, sister Evina?" asked Estrella.

"Of course, I believe I can defeat them." Evina replied confidently.

"If you are going to go with Miss Estrella yourself?" asked one of the women.

"Well, all I thought about was having fun while the banquet was going on" Estrella replied innocently.

Estrella only listened to the masters and also the young lady who was engrossed in chatting, in her mind she was eager to take part in the banquet.

It was just that he was aware with his sword ability as well as his bad magic how could he possibly rank first ?.

He will make his family even more embarrassed because he has a very stupid child.

After the show ended, Evina was helping her sister remove makeup.

"Why do you look so sad Ella ? Was the party unpleasant?." asked Evina.

"Of course it's fun, it's just...." Estrella could not continue with her words.

Hufttts....

He breathed because he was so upset.

"What is Ella?" asked Evina, who was curious about what her sister was thinking.

"On the banquet at the Elvern academy later." replied Estrella.

"What happened to the banquet?" asked Evina again.

Estrella explained what was the burden on her mind.

"I told you I'd tear the mouths of those who dare insult you later" said Evina who looked upset.

"Sister.the banquet was so big, the more people who saw my bad abilities, the greater the shame of the Callia family." explained Estrella.

"I've never been ashamed of Estrella, besides your ability is bad also because you are lazy to practice, if you are diligent you will be greater than those who insult you." replied Evina.

"But sister.." Estrella had not yet finished her words, Evina had already cut it off.

"You have to be confident Estrella, if you don't have this kind of confidence that the Callia family and the Elvern Academy are going to be very embarrassed. Did you forget that you are also a proud student of the Elvern academy?." asked Evina.

Estrella nodded, which her brother said was true. Although she is not good at swordsmanship and magic, Estrella is very good at science.

"Are you going to be able to accompany me to practice?" asked Estrella.

"Of course, tomorrow I will accompany you to practice, now you must quickly rest." replied Evina with a sweet smile at her sister.

Evina pinched her sister's cheek, "Good night Estrella."

"Good night, sister." replied Estrella.

As soon as her sister Estrella changed her clothes again and left the Callia residence secretly.
