As dragons, unless they encountered a Green Dragon, being poisoned to death by this little bit of toxin would truly be a laughingstock among dragons.
There was no need to mention Friel; Jona Velli felt it would be a bit troublesome to ask her. But as for Gris... 'Jie jie jie...'
"Dealing with an idiot like you is a piece of cake, isn't it?"
... "Older Sister! Older Sister! Where's the delicious food you mentioned?"
The sound of a massive object landing came from outside. Gris, whose voice arrived before he did, pushed open the door, his face filled with gluttonous excitement.
Gris, in human form, looked around and saw the large quantities of fruit and wheat, and the excitement on his face receded like the tide.
"Just these crappy fruits? I thought it was something else."
Jona Velli ignored Gris. Seeing her not responding, Gris walked over to her and looked at the jars and bottles on the table, as well as some strange devices he didn't understand, his face full of confusion.
"Older Sister, what are you doing here?"
Jona Velli turned her head, a smile of a successful scheme on her face. At that moment, Medusa, who had followed behind, slammed the wooden door shut.
"Older Sister... you... brought me here to eat, right?"
The smile on Jona Velli's face widened. In the next second, the door was sealed with ice. Jona Velli pressed one hand onto Gris's head, her hand slowly transforming into a white dragon claw. The immense pressure gave Gris the illusion that Jona Velli was about to crush his skull.
"My dearest brother, your Older Sister has run into a little trouble. I'm sure you'll definitely help me, right?"
A bad premonition welled up in his heart, growing stronger. Gris swallowed hard and gave a sheepish smile.
"Uh, Older Sister, what are you talking about? Of course I'll help you."
Jona Velli restrained her aura and let go, instead patting Gris on the shoulder and giving him a look that said, 'I knew I could count on you.'
Gris didn't know what that look was about, assuming it was just Jona Velli's strange old habit acting up again.
Over the next month, Jona Velli continuously brewed various liquors.
But without exception, the liquors brewed during this period either emitted a strange stench or were outright biological weapons.
Of course, the worst part was Gris. He had completely become Jona Velli's guinea pig. In just one month, he had fainted over a hundred times from tasting her brews, each time ending up belly-up.
Sometimes he even had the illusion that his brother-screwing Older Sister had somehow obtained the Green Dragon's Venomous Breath and secretly added it in to kill him.
Tasting it over and over again made Gris go from extreme resistance at the beginning to reluctance, and finally to his current state of numbness.
However, tasting it time and time again, day after day, significantly increased Gris's poison resistance. One could call it a blessing in disguise.
"Come, my lovely brother, down this cup of wine!"
Looking at the numb Gris, who was lying sprawled on the ground and trapped in ice crystals, Jona Velli walked up to him holding a glass jar.
She could clearly see the slight resistance in Gris's eyes, but it was all useless. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about running away, but the result was what he was now: his entire dragon body was frozen in ice, with only his head exposed.
Jona Velli said in a gentle tone.
"It's fine. One more time won't hurt."
"Don't worry, I feel like it should work this time. After all, it smells like the real deal."
As she spoke, the wine Jona Velli brewed was already nearing Gris's lips.
Gris's lips quivered. This time, he really didn't know if he could make it through.
"Aunt Tiamat, if I don't make it, please make sure my 'loving' Older Sister comes to join me."
Jona Velli kicked Gris in dissatisfaction.
"What are you saying? I'm your Older Sister. How could you curse me like that? Do you need a lesson?"
With that, Jona Velli stopped pretending and violently pried open Gris's mouth, pouring the glass jar's contents into his throat with a 'glug-glug' sound.
