Reid Astrea Husbando

Reid Astrea (レイド・アストレア) was the first Sword Saint and a key figure in the sealing of the Witch of Envy 400 years ago. Mentioned throughout the series, he formally debuted in Arc 6 as a secondary antagonist. Reid had waist length, fiery red hair, sky blue eyes, and was mentioned to be a head taller than Subaru with a muscular body. He wore a crimson kimono which he only wore half of, leaving the right side uncovered, a white sarashi around his body, and a black eye patch over his left eye that has an ugly pattern. Reid was shown to have a very frank and rather crude personality, as Subaru was easily able to imitate his method of speech, and tended to speak in short sentences, frequently ending them with you (オメエ omee). However, he had no interest in titles, stating that he was himself, others were themselves, and that he was strong not because he wielded a sword, but simply because he was strong. He was also lustful, mentioning that he would have had Emilia in bed if he was still alive. Despite being somewhat frank and abstract, Reid was quite clever. In addition to this, he also had a great amount of knowledge regarding how to fight with the sword and once spent three months lifting nothing but his sword. His effort led him to be the first person in history who attained the Heavenly Sword. Reid Astrea was born around 400 years ago. Throughout the years, he trained relentlessly and soon achieved the very zenith of swordsmanship, becoming the only person in history who reached a level of swordsmanship known as the Heavenly Sword. He became famed for a plethora of his activities, such as slaying one hundred Dragons in a fight, his achievement of 6,000 undefeated victories at the Gladiator Island Ginunhive in the Vollachia Empire, his victories in drinking competitions, and other varying exploits.[1] In the years predating the Great Calamity, Reid travelled alongside Satella, Echidna, Flugel, Farsale Lugunica, and Alec Hoshin for unknown reasons, though according to Alec, it was a journey to save the world. At an unspecified point in time, he also met Divine Dragon Volcanica. Reid was known in history for being the one responsible for the eradication of the Blight Dragons which used to roam the world back then. According to legends, he cut down numerous dragons with a single swing of his Dragon Sword. After Satella, the Witch of Envy, suddenly went out of control and went on a rampage across the world, Reid met with the Dragon and the Sage in the city of Flanders, forming an alliance with the heroes.[2] The heroes set their goals on defeating the rampaging Witch who mercilessly killed thousands and thousands of innocents and toppled one country after another. After realizing they were unable to kill her, Reid and the others managed to defeat her and seal her away in the Aguria Sand Dunes, located in the Dragon Kingdom of Lugunica's easternmost region.
