Demetrius Desmond

is the first son of the Desmond Family and the older brother of Damian Desmond. He is a second-year middle school student in Cline Hall as well as an Imperial Scholar at Eden Academy. He is also an exceptional student, barely getting a single question wrong on the midterm exams, as noted by Loid Forger, and earning six Stella Stars in the recent term finals.
== Appearance ==
Demetrius is a tall and slim teenage boy with short and slightly curly dark hair combed back, big light eyes, and pale skin. He generally resembles a younger version of his father, but in his gloomy mood, he slightly resembles his mother.
Like other Imperial Scholars, he is usually seen wearing Eden Academy's uniform and a black cape with a dark red lining and a gold cord holding it together at the chest.
== Personality ==
Demetrius is as secretive and cold as his parents and has an extremely narrow circle of communication (in his case, these are other Imperial Scholars). Mysteriously, when Anya initially tries reading his mind, it is completely silent. When she does get to hear his thoughts, he thinks about how he does not understand people and that thinking about it is a waste of time, showing himself to be highly unsociable, even towards his family. Nevertheless, it is clear that he is a versatile genius who earns his father's favoritism and participates in various fields to achieve achievements and glorify his family. It also seems that he is a fairly honest and straightforward person and seems to be someone who is quite stoic and silent, saying few words only when being spoken to and never starting a conversation by himself.
== Abilities and Skills ==
Athleticism: Demetrius has advanced skills in some sports. Ewen and Emile have admired his achievements in a photo album and called him a truly MVP.
Genius-level Intellect: Loid called Demetrius an exceptional student. Demetrius is extraordinarily smart and erudite in academics, as he almost never makes mistakes in his works, and in the term finals, he earned Stellas in six subjects that consist of mathematics, biology, physics, history, and two different languages.
== Relationships ==
=== Donovan Desmond ===
Little is known about their relationship, but it appears that the two were close. When Demetrius was little, Donovan barely left his son's side and always watched him study, perhaps due to Demetrius being an outstanding student and a worthy representative of the family. In the past, it is implied that he (and his wife) came to Demetrius's orientation when he first entered Eden and were in a group photo that was not done for Damian, which perhaps indicates some of Donovan's favoritism for his elder son. When Anya reads his mind, she hears that Demetrius does not understand his father after talking with Damian, who asks if he had anything to say about his achievement on the term finals.
It is unknown how is currently their relationship but it is implied they have become strained through years.
=== Melinda Desmond ===
According to Loid, Melinda is extremely detached from her husband and both their sons, which makes it clear that Demetrius has a distant relationship with his mother.
=== Damian Desmond ===
It seems that Demetrius has an extremely cold attitude towards his brother, so much so that he hardly even wants to talk to him on the phone, throwing only short neutral phrases. Nevertheless, he seems to have no problem fulfilling his request to pass the message to their father, but he also bluntly declares that the kid shouldn't have much hope because he may not come.
Later, when Damian does not give up trying to be friendly with his brother, Demetrius responds to him with cold indifference, rejecting his attempts to get closer. When it comes to their father again, Demetrius does not want to continue further conversations, stunning Damian that he does not maintain regular contact with their parent.
