10 To Enter the Academy 1 9 (1/2)
Saldimir, named after his town's name, the hero of Saldi, and Idris, the genius mage ever born. These two excelled in knowledge, wisdom, and the world of mages. Who would have thought that Eddra could get the chance to see the two in person?
Eddra had heard about these two in his groupmate in the military. That groupmate of his was the human definition of a chatterbox. Ask him a thing and he would reply a thousand paragraphs.
This friend of his had much information about these two, more than anyone could imagine. He mentioned that Saldimir, or sometimes the middle-aged man preferred to be called Saldi, could control time and manipulate people that he uses telekinesis.
The certain thing he had done in front of people was bending a spoon and breaking glass. However, these two items were already bent and broken before Saldi showed it to others. Saldi simply turned back the time of the items were they were still not curved nor shattered to thousands of pieces. On top of that, he was also known to be a cunning man and someone who loves manipulating people.
Of course, his friend had something he knew about the other young man, too, the one who was born and destined to be a genius mage. Idris' power was the light, and with his light, he could do many things.
If Saldi loves fooling people and entertaining them, Idris was the complete opposite of the middle-aged rotten man. Idris did not want to interact nor never heard spoke to other people, like ever. However, despite this, he was kind to the people and did not care the slightest of their ranking, unlike the first man described.
What added his curiosity to Idris was, his friend said, he graduated a year from the academy and worked under the military after, without telling his purpose.
Eddra blinked his eyes, not able to believe that the two powerful beings who he only heard from a friend of his had set foot to their residence. If Eddra's dumb self was the one porting the present body, he might simply shrug off the importance of these two.

”... Eddra?” was his mother calling him, ”You will see these men in the academy. They were the ones the dean sent to deliver your uniform.”
'... Wow, Mother. You have such powerful peers. To be able to send two powerful individuals for a small errand was lame... and simply bewildering.'
Despite Eddra feeling his hands shaking from the sudden overwhelming power from the two, he did not fail to draw a pleasant smile on his lips. ”I understand, Mother.” Eddra reached a hand on Saldi of which was accepted immediately.
”Sir Saldimir, I am Eddra Issac Orhom...” Eddra placed his other hand on top and shook the guest's hand smoothly. ”Please to meet you,” he cheered. If Eddra had heard the information of these two a year and a half when he was in the military, Idris must be presently just a year younger than him.
”Hm... Likewise, Sir Eddra.” Saldi broke off the handshake and smiled back to Eddra then after moved his gaze to his second brother. Seeing this, Eddra took the chance to state what he had read on the new plate.
”... [Status Check],” he barely whispered, avoiding the men to hear him.

'Ah... What are these question marks?' Eddra thought to himself, asking if the [System] was broken. Despite thinking that he might have broken it, Eddra tried it on the other guest, whispering the same words.

Noticing no difference, Eddra's eyebrows were drawn together as he mumbled, ”... [Hide Status Check].”
