THE ETERNAL VAMPIRE SYSTEM

042 - SWORD TRAINING

“I've mastered a lot of magic, why should I learn to fight?” andreas asked in between he and Lotra to rest after practicing the sword.

It had been a week that Lotra had taught him how to use a sword to attack Andreas, so that the boy could fight even without using magic.

In one week learned a lot of rapid improvement from Andreas, even Prata was quite amazed by what happened, when he was at the age of Andreas he was so weak.

Alfred told him at one time that according to him Andreas had above average ability of a child his age, Lotra thought it was commonplace because in him there was the soul of a Benedictus.

However, it turns out that his mind is different, he should expect higher because Andreas is not an ordinary child.

In one month there are so many styles that he mastered, he can use magic and swordsmanship simultaneously without anything lacking and wrong in the slightest.

“At times magic can run out when you fight enemies who have higher magic, but fighting with swords will be endless,” said Lotra answered Andreas's question. “The magic is like the water in a bottle will run out if you drink and get sunburnt, while fighting that bottle you can take back the water or use that bottle to absorb the sun's heat.”

Andreas nodded as if he understood what Lotra was saying, though he still tried to grasp what the metaphor meant.

Lotra spoke to him as if he were not a child but a grown man.

Does Lotra know about her? Agras thought a little, although then his own mind answered with the word impossible, because many people still continue to ask about who he really is then it is impossible Lotra can know.

“Are you a witch, Uncle?” ask Agras curious.

Lotra has a different strength and body than other demons, Andreas thinks the possibility of Lotra a demon with great magic, especially coupled with his incredible endurance.

“Witch? It doesn't seem,” replied Lotra.

Andreas thought that it was just a joke. Lotra may have no magic at all.

“You must think I'm kidding, right? But in fact it's not. I am an ordinary vampire, a descendant of demons who do not have any magic, I do not have magic even I can not master the spell, different I have a very strong body like a giant.”

“It's obvious if it is, but I think magic can be honed and developed,” Andreas said.

“What your father never told you, that the witch is a descendant and not. If they have offspring then that is he was born into a witch, but if they are not descendants then that magic he got from the split God grace, like natural talent. I don't have both,” Lotra explained.

Andreass now understood, but Andreas thought it was no problem for Prata, the proof was that even though he did not have much more powerful magic power, he was no ordinary vampire.

Even Andreas himself thought that originally Lotra was not a vampire but a giant or a monster, everyone would say that if they first saw it.

However, what is still a question for Andreas is, why there are demons even vampires who do not have magic at all

Wasn't that magic indeed innate from birth, a lifetime even a thousand years old, which he knew all vampires could use magic, because with it they lived.

Unfortunately, what he heard and saw all answered his question.

Even without magic, Lotra already has a great power, even able to rival many demons in general.

"System, I want power just like Lotra."

[It can, but it's just a copy, sir. Not really like Lotra's.]

"It's okay."

[Copying force done ... Copying completed. Strength and skill have been added]

***

Alfred says that Andreas must be able to the Tower of Magic for his education.

That night Lotra went to Andrew's room, where he saw Andrew sitting on his bed rubbing his sword.

He had to say goodbye to Andrew, for it was time. Seeing the coming of Lotra Andreas put down his sword.

 “What's up?” So asked Andreas. “We're done training, aren't we?”

Hearing Andreas's question Lotra nodded in response.

“All your training is done, I must return to my territory,” Lotra said.

Andrew wanted to ask why, but he said because he now realized that he did not need a teacher anymore and when Lotra taught him was done, Lotra had to return to his territory, because he had a son and a wife that he had to take care of there.

According to the father, the magic tower was opened, and he had to go back there to study.

Andreas must enter in the second year.

“So when are you going back to your city?” ask Andrew again.

“Quickly, maybe tomorrow or tonight,” said Lotra answered Andreas's question.

It was quite difficult to leave Andreas there, especially when he realized he already had a strong enough bond with the boy, considering the few weeks he taught him.

Andreas was his first student, although he did not call him his last student, because after this he wanted to find another student who might be able to throw his boredom in the city.

If only the wife would allow it, because it has been a long time since marriage he has very rarely held a sword.

“Send my regards to your wife and child, after I finish studying in the magic tower, I will definitely visit you,” Andreas said.

Lotra nodded at what Andreas said.

After the conversation Lotra came out of Andreas' room, walking down the hallway of the mansion to his own room.

Andreas is now alone, still thinking about the return of Lotra to his city. Although not long ago Lotra taught himself to sword but he had assumed

Although initially Lotra was so scary and fierce to him, but how to teach him so great that he made himself master the science of sword quickly.

Andreas could have been so great because of his teacher Lotra, if it wasn't for Lotra he probably wouldn't have been.

His father was right to find a teacher for him, maybe if other teachers would not be like that.

Lotra is so great, not only his body is like a giant but he has tremendous power, even though Lotra does not have magic power, he said he was not born as a witch.

***

The day after Lotra returned home, Andreas went to the Magic Tower because it was opened.

Andreas goes to Alfred, but they don't use a horse-drawn carriage.

They fly together, while on the way they meet with Raquel, but Raquel uses a horse-drawn carriage.

Andreas it's time to re-learn after this he will find out a lot of information about a lot of things.
