I ENDED UP AS A DUKE'S 7TH CHILD

CHAPTER 59

"Davinia, your blows are becoming very predictable. Once a person fights with you for some time, they will be able to read you like a book," said brother Neel.

"What should I do then?" I asked escaping from his attack.

"It's not something, anyone can teach you. You have to understand such things by yourself. Everyone is taught the same moves and trick. Now, how and when to use, this depends on us," he said and blow my wooden sword. I saw it flying high and then sister Athena catched it like a fruit which just fall from a tree.

"I lost again!"

"You lost for the 13th time today by both me and Athena. Do you think you can carry on, if you keep fighting like this?"

"Neel, I think you are being too hard on her. Don't you see her body? Even if she changes her technique she can't outdo us by her strength," sister Athena said comforting me.

"Yeah I think you are right,............ HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU, TO NOT CALL ME BY MY NAME??? I'M TWO YEARS OLDER THAN YOU!!!!"

"No no no," she said in a sarcastic way. "Did you forget last month I turned 16. ONLY ONE YEAR OLDER."

"I'LL ALSO TURN 18 NEXT MONTH. SO STOP CALLING ME NEEL!!!"

"Yeah whatever, Davinia I think you should eat more. Don't you think you are too small for your age?" asked sister.

"Umm, I weight more than Meitry though." I said confusedly. "Master was telling me to spare with kids my age, that's way I can understand my potential more."

"That's a good idea!" said sister. "You can try sparing with Matthew."

"Matthew just started recently, she will easily beat him. I think you need someone with similar experiences as yours," said brother Neel.

"Then who can be it? Most of the other Ladies I know has only recently started." I said.

"What about Prince Liam? You are friends with him and I'm sure he also started from an early age," both me and brother stared at sister " Did I say anything wrong?"

"Yes! Very wrong. He is trained by imperial masters. How can I practice with him. I have no chance to even stand before him."

"Davinia, so you are saying my training is not enough," screamed brother furiously.

"No, that's not what I meant....."

"NO! YOU SHOULD PRACTICE WITH HIM FROM NOW ON. ANYWAY HE INVITES YOU OFTEN, SO RATHER THAN ENJOYING THE TEA AND CAKES YOU SHOULD SPARE WITH HIM. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT!!!!!!!!" he shouted at me.

"Yes, I understand," I replied with a broken heart.

[Later during self study session. Davinia, Meitry, Alex, Matthew, Logan, Clausius, Rose are present here]

"Meitry, Davinia what's your plan for this year's study vacation?" asked Alex.

"I think I should go to the North this time," replied Meitry.

"Ehhhh," we all showcased our disappointment at once.

"Who goes to North by the end of the year in their sane mind?" asked Alex.

"Do you know how cold is there? Even your breathe becomes ice," I said.

"Oh ho you both, maybe our Meitry wanted to see the young Lord of North, you two don't understand anything. There are rumours of him being a 'snow-white'. It's okay Meitry. I understand you," teasingly said Matthew.

We all giggled at once.

"I just wanted to know about the North a little more. How the people live there that's all. That's it," frantically said Meitry.

"Haaaaa," sighed Clausius, "You guys are so lucky you can go for study vacation."

"Once you are 11, you will also go. Don't be sad," said Meitry.

"WILL YOU ALL KEEP TALKING OR FOCUS ON YOUR STUDIES?" Logan shouted at us.

"Sorry," we all said at once.

"Logan is too much serious about everything," whispered Alex.

We all strongly nodded in agreement.

"Can I ask something?" asked Rose out of the blue.

Although none of us likes her and wants to talk to her but I still replied, "You may."

"What is a study vacation?"

                               BONUS
                         SNOW WHITE

         [This story is based on this world]

Long ago there lived a young boy named Snow White. His hair was as white as snow. Fairies and witches would come to see him from far. He was very beautiful. As he grew older he became more and more beautiful, there were no opponents for his beauty among men and women.

But as he grew older he realised everyone loved him only for his beauty. How hard he tried, no one noticed how good he was in archery, how well he cooked, how prettily he knitted. His whole identity became his beauty.

As time went by he became scared of his own beauty. He locked himself in a room. The fairies and witches went to him. "What's the matter, my child? Why did you locked yourself?" they all asked.

In return he only asked them one question, "Would you have come to see me in this locked room, if it wasn't for my beauty?"

Hearing Snow White they all asked themselves if they actually would have gone to him, if he wasn't beautiful. And realise no, they wouldn't."

Then they casted a spell on everyone who were enchanted by Snow White's beauty and loved him only because of it.

Finally Snow White came out of his room and started living the life he always wanted.
