The Slayers
Chapter 97 (Season 3)

Johan was completely confused by what was happening now. He only used the name of his sword, Helios. But now it is thought to be a savior.

"Ehm, you seem to have misunderstood."

"Misunderstand what? With your excellent equipment, and your clothes are white in gold, and your sword looks luxurious too!"

'... What kind of coincidence is this?' Johan is increasingly confused, but he thinks about using the name Helios first even though he does not like to lie.

"Ha-hahahaha, my family is famous too apparently."

"Of course, your family is very mysterious and powerful! Your family is known for their excellent sword skills!"

"But...why did you just show up now?"

"Errr, because I think it's time to help, the world is being pushed by dragons that are getting stronger today, right?"

"Yes! That'sthat's true! Thank goodness the Helios family is finally willing to help us!"

Johan immediately felt guilty, not until when his lie will continue. But he doesn't want to stay here long.

"Then, may I go-"

"Ah, no! You're not hungry? What if you taste the dishes in this mansion?"

"Ah, no-" Johan wanted to reject her, but Grid immediately cut in.

"No need to bother, Mr. Johannes. It's an honor to be able to entertain guests as great as you!"

"Eh, but-" Johan really wanted to refuse, but his stomach was not supportive at all. His stomach immediately made a special and funny sound.

"A... Maybe just a little bit?" Johan was now embarrassed half to death because his stomach could ring at a time like this. He ate only one loaf of bread that did not fill his stomach. Grid laughed and guided Johan to the dining room.

They headed for the dining room not far from the space they were in. When entering, there was a long table with various chairs. He sat at the end of the table, Grid sat across the table.

"Servant!" Grid shouted loudly, a moment later, a female servant came.

"What's up, mister?"

"Cuisine for our guests and for me, don't forget, add special seasoning Kronoes family!"

"Good sir." The waiter bowed with a polite smile and left.

"You really don't have to bother, Mr. Grid. I'm not feeling good." Johan's looking to get out of here as soon as possible.

"No need to worry, your own stomach is not filled, right?"

Johan said nothing more, he felt his rejection would be useless in front of this person.

After thirty minutes, the servants came with plenty of food. Johan immediately gaped and from his mouth drooled. He immediately wiped his saliva, it would be embarrassing to see.

The waiters put down foods that smell really tempting. Starting from chicken, sausage, steak, and other foods.

"Please, take as you please."

Johan directly picked up the chicken and ate it very greedily, Grid laughed heartily at Johan until he coughed.

"Ah, sorry." Grid stood up from his chair and took out a glass bottle containing a blue-colored pill. He took one and drank it.

Grid immediately sat back down.

"You all right, Mr Grid?"

"I'm okay, just an old disease." Grid then took one of his meals.

"Is it good, Mr Johannes?"

"It's so good, Mr. Grid!"

"Want to be delicious!"

Johan ate it with the food, but the Seraphim immediately appeared behind Johan and held his head with both hands.

Johan's body was instantly channeled with angelic energy. Johan was surprised and confused.

'What's the Seraphim?'

[That guy tried to kill you!]

'What? Why?'

[I don't know, but in the food there is a deadly poison.]

'But he also ate. uh, don't-don't take the pill...'

[Yes, it was likely that the pill he was taking was a poison-fighting pill. And I've been draining angelic energy to ward off poison. So you can be free to eat.]

'Thank you so much Seraphim!'

[It's my duty as your patron, Johan.]

Johan was happy because he could now enjoy the meal without hesitation. Grid was confused and surprised because of Johan but considering he was from the Helios family, he thought that maybe the poison would have an effect a little longer.

After a while, Johan had already finished eating and his stomach was already fully filled. He stood up from his chair and said "Thank you for the food, your family's secret condiment is truly amazing!"

"Hahahaha, thank you for the compliment, Mr. Johan. By the way, where do you have business?"

"I'm doing a search."

"What kind of search? Maybe I can help you."

"Errr, do you know anything about Gram's sword?"

"Oh of course I know! The sword belongs to Sigurd, the hero who defeated and killed Fafnir, one of the dragon's ancestors. He was the first to fight the dragon and inspire people to move against the dragon. His sword is rumored to have been broken due to the relentless fighting against the dragons. It's a story told down through generations."

"Why are you asking about Gram's sword?"

"I plan to find Gram's sword."

Grid rounded his eyes and immediately laughed out loud as if he were hearing the funniest joke in the world.

"Errr, I know my words are a joke, but I believe Gram's sword is still there."

"No way, people have searched year after year, decade and even century, but they never found it. So your search is futile, Mr. Johan."

"No, me-"

"Rather than looking for the impossible, why don't you enjoy your life?"

Johan instantly fell silent, not understanding the intent of Grid.

"You mean?"

"My point is, you shouldn't have done a futile and useless search. You should enjoy your life as a noble like me, eat anything, do anything, even you can enjoy the women in the brothels*l around here."

Johan was instantly speechless and speechless. Such a life was not too good compared to those outside? thought.

"What about war? Isn't there still a war with dragons?"

Grid immediately laughed back, he with his annoying smile said "War? That's not something that nobles like us deserve. Let the slaves and the fools fight, they are so funny to watch, HAHAHAHAHA!"

Grid laughed casually without showing any guilt. That's when Johan's head was thought of one thing, namely beheading useless nobles in front of him.
