Volund had waited a long time, about 45 minutes. But he was suddenly startled by Johan who came and carried him.
"Ap-ap-what? What's going on?"
"Let's go back, Mr. Volund!"
"You made it?" Volund saw Gram's sword hanging on Johan's left waist. The sword still exuded a majestic aura despite being broken.
"Yes, I managed to get a piece of Gram's sword."
"...thank God, then let's go."
After that, Johan darted towards the Volund Workshop.
But Johan did not dare to fly too high. The dragons might have noticed that Gram's sword had been stolen, so he flew low.
But, the deed was in vain. The dragons on the hunt were madly looking at Johan who was flying low, and one of the dragons saw Gram's sword hanging on Johan's left waist. The eyes of the dragons were basically sharp.
"There!" One of the dragons finds Johan and immediately shouts at the other dragon. After which, the dragons flew low and breathed out their flames at Johan.
Johan certainly flew very nimbly and avoided the breath of fire coming from various directions.
Volund held on very tightly to Johan. Volund clutched both of Johan's shoulders very firmly. Johan felt pain on both shoulders, but he himself had to focus on avoiding the breath of fire.
The longer the chase lasts, the more the forest burns and scorches. Johan did not let this chase go on. Johan raised his speed, plus, he used a skill.
"Mr Volund! A strong grip!"
Hearing that, Volund's grip grew stronger, leaving both of Johan's shoulders numb. But Johan activated his skill immediately.
"[Star acceleration]."
Johan's body shone and there was a spark of stars appearing. Johan's wings grew bigger and brighter.
Then he sped up very fast. The dragon that blinked once instantly lost Johan.
"Where is he!?"
"We lost him!"
"Search more thoroughly!"
Meanwhile, Johan has arrived in front of the Volund workshop.
"Please wait here, Mr. Johan, I'll fix Gram's sword." Volund quickly picked up Gram's sword and opened the doors of his Workshop.
"How long does it take to fix it?"
"3 weeks with all my strength."
Johan immediately gaped and his eyes perfectly rounded. He didn't have that long. But how else, repairing a legendary sword is not easy.
"Just relax, I can set the time so you only have to wait 3 hours."
Johan became relieved by that. At least he didn't need to skip the Academy. If he had to wait three weeks, his presence would be asked, there would be gossip about him, his image would be bad and his foster father would be disappointed in him.
Volund entered his workshop and there was a glimpse of light in it.
Now, Johan just needs to sit back and wait. He might get bored and could only talk to the Seraphim.
But, it seemed like there would be dragons accompanying him.
"Oh my goodness..." Johan lazily stood up and prepared to fight against the dragons who found him.
***while it's somewhere else.
"Yeah!"
"No need to scream, it doesn't add to the damage. Unless you're, Norga, barbarians or clambers usually yell indistinctly."
"Groaaaaa!"
"Not screaming like a wild animal either. Don't follow me like I'm."
"Sir Alan job what the hell!?" Alex asked who was frustratingly attacking Alan.
Alex's attack is stopped by Alan's legs and Alan uses it as a step and back. Norga who attacked with a hammer from behind so missed.
As soon as it landed smoothly, Alan said lazily "How many times do I have to prove that I'm an Alchemist? I myself have practiced Alchemist magic with attacks from magic circles, created homunculus, made versatile gear, and you guys have also entered my workplace right? So, why are you still in doubt?"
"Only, that big brother's ability isn't like an Alchemist!" Shouted Norga who tried to attack again.
But Alan quickly mengleding Norga until he fell. Alan continued by pinning Alex's neck with both feet and slamming him to the ground.
"I told you it was just a passive skill."
Alchemist Alan can knock down Alex and Norga in three seconds. Alex and Norga are level one.
"It looks like enough of our training for today, tomorrow be prepared to go mortal. You two go alone. Go to Slayers' office and order a snake-level portal with my money. No one else, just the two of you, okay?"
"Wait, snake level?" Alex asked in surprise while looking up.
"Yes, snake level, is there a problem?"
"That's too high for us! Didn't it take a level 50-100 or above for a snake-level mortal?"
"Indeed, but I'm sure you can. You guys have improved your stats, right? That should be enough."
"But.."
"No need but-but, the sooner the better. After all if there were any rumors about a level one slayers duo being able to complete a snake level portal, it would be incredible. You'll be considered super rookies."
Alex and Norga immediately imagined it. They will be the target of many people, praised by many, and they will be famous! For Alex, maybe his achievements will be known by Cindy and he has a chance to get close to her. For Norga, he might be able to take revenge on the person who rejected him once before, but considering that the girl was at Slayers Academy, Norga found it impossible for him to know.
But still, their lack of experience left Alex and Norga insecure.
"Is there no faster way, brother?" Ask Norga curiously.
"Of course, it's more efficient."
Alex and Norga's faces instantly brightened. But Alex realizes that this faster way is not good, because Alan himself did not mention it earlier.
"How sis?" Ask Norga enthusiastically.
"PK."
Just two letters away and it immediately shocked Alex and Norga. Their faces were both instantly gloomy.
"This is the most efficient way, but the most risky. I used to go straight up to level 57 quickly because of PK. But I don't want you guys to be like me. Moreover, if Nolisia feels the killing from you, especially you," pointing at Norga, "I will be beaten up completely."
"If you do PK, you will also become famous in a bad sense. So don't do PK. In the future, you might do PK, but, for now be good and gentle Slayers, you understand?"
Alex and Norga nodded confidently. They immediately stood up and prepared.
"Oh yeah, before going to Slayers' office. I want you to buy a gun first. You want online messaging or direct messaging?"
""Direct message."" Answer them simultaneously.
"All right." Alan walked up to Alex and Norga, he then held onto both of their shoulders.
"Huft, I hope he doesn't go berserk." They then teleported.
**The Ling Hua Place.
Ling Hua was currently relaxed and wanted to enjoy his hot coffee. Just as he was about to drink his coffee, his shoulders were suddenly held by someone.
"Huh-h"
"YAHOOOO!!!"
Ling Hua startledly doused Alan's newly arrived face. He wanted to surprise Ling Hua. It worked, but in exchange...
"COGGGGHHHH!!!" His face was doused in super-hot coffee and his eyes went blind.
