Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 153 Something In The Water?

Dorian narrowed his eyes, looking at the water thoughtfully. And flowing his gaze, everyone else also stared at the water in confusion.

Could it be that he saw something?

Seeing Dorian advance towards the water, Ajin quickly raised his tranquillizer vigilantly. But like a shadow, Butler Sheng suddenly appeared before him.

"Everyone, please take several steps back. Chan-ki, you stand here."

"Yes, brother Sheng," Chan-ki replied, feeling the tension in the air.

Could it be that there was some deadly predator swimming in the water?

Ajin and the rest wanted to step closer to Dorian but had no choice but to stand still. Butler Sheng's actions showed that there would be no room for maneuvering.

The animals also sat obediently around them, not daring to touch them.

Chan-ki's eyes kept darting between Dorian and Butler Sheng, dying to know what this was all about.

With a low chuckle, Butler Sheng decided to free him from his thoughts and anxiety, while slowly reaching for his great pocket, just in case.

"Chan-ki, you spent your time in the ward, so it's only natural that you don't know how great the Grandmaster is."

Oh?

Ears perked to heaven, Ajin and his men couldn't help listening in on the conversation.

.

The juicy intel they were listening to was too sweet to pass up.

The compliments from the butler were very high. His time and even his manner of speaking could make a person think this boy... This Tian boy, who should be broke, was some high-ranking leader.

The information they gathered vastly differed from what they saw and how Butler Sheng was describing the boy.

More than that, the title Grandmaster had long piqued their interest too. And it looks like soon enough, they'll be able to get all the pieces of the puzzle and successfully crack the code.

Ahin thinned his lips, focusing his attention on Butler Sheng's words.

As for Chan-ki, he too wanted to know what the mystery was about... Though he was getting nervous the more Butler Sheng talked.

Additionally, what was up with the thin rectangular pieces of paper he saw Butler Sheng bring out.

Lying trough. Was anyone ever going to explain things to him?

(YwY)

.

"Chan-ki... Do you remember what the Grandmaster said in the ward last time?"

Chan-ki looked to the ground in deep thought before nodding vigorously. "Yes! Yes, brother Sheng. I do... But what does that have to do with this situation?"

"Chan-ki's... As the Grandmaster said, our Tian family has a secret mission and job in this world."

Boom!

Everyone's ears jolted in warning, already guessing so many hidden, uncovered scenarios that the Tian family could be involved with.

Could it be that they were some secret undercover organization? Could they be involved in some top-secret research plan? Or were they involved with finding ancient artifacts?

Remembering how the boy could tame these beasts, maybe it had something to do with his skills instead.

No wonder!~... No wonder Marshall Gia would do so much for them.

Ajin and many others were quick to develop so many plot twists and plot armor for why Dorian's situation was different from what the public knew.

However, Butler Sheng's following words made them choke in disbelief.

"Chan-ki, what if I told you that our enemies were neither mortal nor animal?"

-silence-

"~Pff!... Hahahahha~~" Chan-ki and a few others cracked up.

Aiyo~

Why didn't they notice that this Butler was so funny?

.

Mina laughed so hard that tears had already begun forming at the corners of her eyes.

Everyone thought it was a joke... until they realized how unchanged Butler Sheng's expression was.

Ajin couldn't help being taken aback.

"Excuse, Mr. Sheng, you can't be serious, right?"

Yes. Yes... How absurd would that be?

"~HahahahaAH---..."

Everyone suddenly stopped laughing, feeling that something was alright.

As for Butler Sheng, he casually struggled while doing what the Grandmaster had commended, telepathically.

~Swish!

Butler Sheng threw the papers in his hands. And maybe it was their imagination, but they swore that the wind had magically sent these papers around them in a very organized manner.

Brother Sheng nodded while standing outside the formation.

Everyone, including the animals, were all in there. And Butler Sheng was standing opposite to them.

They didn't understand what was happening but stood still according to his orders.

Nonetheless, his actions did indeed arouse their curiosity.

The enemy wasn't human or animal, so what exactly was it?

For some reason, they started feeling uneasy and uncertain. It wouldn't be what they were thinking of, right?

.

Butler Sheng nodded in satisfaction at his work.

[Grandmaster, it's done.]

[Hmmm... Get ready.] Dorian replied, still standing at the edge of the water.

And with this, Butler Sheng was quick to take a battle stance, causing everyone within the formation to turn vigilant.

"Brother Sheng! Brother Sheng! What the hell is going on?"

"No time to talk. Just watch, and you'll understand. However, you're all safe in there."

Eh?

In where?

Butler Sheng was speaking their language. Separately, each sentence made sense. But when put together, no one could understand what he was saying.

However, before they had time to make heads or tails on the matter, they saw something completely unbelievable happen right before their eyes.

"Oh my God! Leader, leader, look!... Look at the Grandmaster!"

~Tap.

Dorian placed his foot on the water.

~Tap. Tap.

He placed his other foot, and soon, he began walking on water like an immortal.

This... This...

Boeing!

Everyone's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, with widened mouths of shock.

"God! I think my eyes have a problem with them. How can I hallucinate in the middle of the day?"

"If you say you're hallucinating or dreaming, then could it be that we all managed to enter the same dream somehow too?"

"F***! Pinch me; this can't be real!"

"Mommy... A real-life immortal!"

Chan-ki almost went down to his knees, wanting to bow and kowtow in awe.

All hail the Grandmaster! All hail, the Grandmaster!
