At night, at the top of the watchtower, Sven looking at the woods that not far from this camp. His eyes watch carefully on those trees, sometimes the leafs on those trees flying in the air, caused by blowing in wind. The breeze at that night is chilly but also refreshing as well, makes Sven feel so calm by it.

"It's been a 5 month that I've lived in this camp. The training was not that rigorous like the rumours, thanks to my experience I say. Well, that said, I still not performed well in the class of magic. And those people keep murmuring about my dark magic as well, " he born under the unlucky black star, he's bad luck, dirty, blah blah...", what a crap.."

"But in the class of physical built and class of art defensive war, even in the class of mock strategy... I can say I done pretty well, good job me!" Sven smiling," But man, this sure exciting. I never knew that taking a formal lesson like this is so much fun, unlike at Demon realm, all that such thing will be learned by their own clan, and I learn that by sneaking around in their territory cause I don't have my own clan, or to be accurate, I don't even know what type demon of myself"

with that talk, Sven suddenly remembers at Mana, who the first demon found him in the destroyed village," if she doesn't found me back then, I don't even know all this kind stuff. And I might not as strong as right now. I have to bring back a souvenir for her"

Sven chuckled," I remember those days, that Mana and I were so close friend, even caused envious by all kind of demons who wants her.Well, I wouldn't blame them because Mana is a really deadly beautiful demon that I know, that's the truth. They suddenly ask for a fight, so it was a bloody day as I've already stronger back then. They do not know that I considered Mana as one of my clan, the one only precious family"

the orange coloured looked at the sky, sign that it begins the early morning. But Sven still looking at the woods, because this night was his turn to be a watch guard. Suddenly, he heard someone panting, then he turn his gaze toward in camp.

A skinny boy was running around the camp in this early morning," Edward, was it??" Sven murmuring

Suddenly he's falling from running, but he rises again with trembling push out, Arghhh"

"he must be the type of worked hard person, every single day, right after training, he's running, training his technique with his weapon and magic.He's rushing his training again... But poor him, he's always being a targeted by those jerks if comes to sparring and mock war, and of course... badly injured,"

Sven looking at him for a while, and after he finishes his run, he went to the special dummies training place, as it can move and hit. After that, he brings out his sword and shield and start swinging and thrust at those dummies," his swings was late for 8.3 seconds, and his thrust was not hit critical spots. is he been serious down there??"

The dummies are arms with wooden swords, wooden spears, and shield. And the dummies are some kind of hard to defeat if those things in a group, and with that, he's already cornered by those. Edward being hit by those wooden spears, which he cannot evade it.

"one, two, three,... fifteen critical hit. He's already dead if this is war" Sven chuckles. A swing hit right in Edward's right cheeks, causing him falling to the ground, grovel in front of the dummies.

"Damn it, why I can't win this thing... Arghh!!" Edward suddenly charges at one of the dummies and being struck by a spear, causing him to thrown back. He sweats a lot because he endured his pain.

"Hey, what are you doing down there" Sven smiles, looking at Edward

"you... Sven right?? what are you doing here?"

"Hey, I was asking first the question here you know..."

"It's what are you looking right now, training with dummies" Edward looking away," now answer my question"

"man, what an impudent person you are. This was my shift as a watcher right now."

"so, do your job then, go away!" Edward yell at Sven

"unlucky for you, MY SHIFT IS DONE... hahaha" Sven laughing

Edward gives a glaring at Sven," then you better stand still, I don't want you to interfere with my training" said him

"being hit with the dummies?? what a masochist" Sven grin

"just shut up, don't be cocky, just because you are among the top rank in defensive art war. Someday I will claim my right as the highest rank for sure"

Just about Edward walks forward to the dummies," Say, is not like I want to know your story, but why do you even to enter this camp, with such a small feature of your physical. In addition, you seem a bit rash?" ask Sven

"mind your own business!" as he continues to walk

Sven releases a heavy sigh," the reason for your slow evade is that you wielding those heavy arms. Those sword and shield are not suited with you". Those words make Edward stop again, then Sven throw his short sword at Edward," use this, it might fit you well"

Edward grab that short sword and ask for a shield," you don't need a shield, trust me" said Sven. Then Edward continue his training and with surprising, he's able to dodge all those attacks with fast agile. " see the pattern of their attack, you can strike back as long as you understand their flows" said Sven

With Sven's instruction, Edward manages to defeat one of the dummies, then he jumps backwards. And with a happy face, he looks at Sven with surprise," not yet, buddy. There's more" said Sven with a smile.Then, he manages to defeat all the dummies, which he could never do since he came here.

"your body is skinny and average. But despite that, you have an elastic muscle and agile to cover it. Traning to strength your wrist a lot to perform more deadly techniques. And this time, you should use twin light blade."Sven walks towards the watchtower, leaving Edward behind

With that, Edward seems feeling bad after receiving those pieces of advice from Sven," I want to get revenge!"

"you want what?" asked Sven

"Revenge... my brother is killed in a recent war against the demon army. I coming here to train myself so I can get revenge for my brother," Edward said

"Is he someone important?"

"He is one of the holy knight, the black knight. He is my only brother, he's kind and talented, I'd admire him the most" Edward clench his teeth

"I even believe that he might be the one that mentions in that storybook, the prophecy knight. Just when he appointed as the holy knight, he was very happy that he not sit still and tell to me every single day, it's annoyed me, to be honest," Edward recalled his memories with his late brother, with a bitter smile

"Just when I come back home after business class, my father and mother were seen devastated with the letters on the table. I afraid to open that letter, think that it must have to do with my brother, but I muster all of my confidence and read the letter, and I crying for that, as the letter told... my brother was dead in battle, killed by the holy knight hunter, Sealgair"

Sven just stood still, knowing that It was because of him that his brother was dead.

"that's why, I run all day, training hard after dinner, to push my limit so that I can defeat that bastard with my own hand.I will find him, even cost me for the rest of my life for searching him. And to do that, I must become the holy knight, then surely he must be targeted me. But I have a minor problem in here" Edward trying swing that short sword with fast, causing a sound of his slash.

And now, you already help me with one of my biggest problems, and I thank you for that, friend" said Edward with a smile

"you know, I was at there, that your brother fighting against Sealgair. For the first time in my life, I saw that epic match, clashing with a sword against spear, the two of them seems even match. Your brother was a great fighter and also great knight, and that's come from my deepest heart"

"thank you"

"I will give you an advice for your training so that your dream can come true," said Sven

"I want to fight someone strong, so lend his hand to become stronger might be a good plan for me" Sven smiling

"And for that, we will train together until we strong enough to gain a place at holy knight, then together, we march against them, shall we" Edward stretch his hand, to give a handshake

Sven greet that hand with his hand," he's not that potential, but I guess he will become nuisance to me when we clashing each other in future"
