If you seen James and Harada, you'll see that their looks didn't much change since twenty-nine year ago.

There are theory that awakened Slayer was slower aging when you comparing to normal people.

even if both of them already passed fifty, they still look like around 25 to 30 year old.

people started to calling awakened people with 'Slayer' since professor Lin Hong theory was correct about mysterious gate.

Slow aged slayer is one of professor theory, but not all slayer got body like that. it's just some slayer that has some degree of strength, like S-ranked slayer. until now, people still missunderstanding this, and envying to everyone that got awakened.

"James-sama is so kind~"

"yeah Mr.James we will listen to you"

the fans was replying him and lessened their tension a bit. then James and Harada processing into a Car.

"don't mention it! and i am coming along because you said you got bad feeling about Japan and guild leader ask me to come along. your instinct save us many times, so i won't complain."

"i love this country culture so much you know. that's why i came to this country when i got bad feeling about it."

Harada father is scientist of Ministry of International Trade and Industry, he was exiled to United States in 1960. to covering a political scandal of ministry of International trade and industry. but the cases was blown up in 1970. his father became scapegoat and he was forced to take all the blame. and the politician who behind everything was live free while his father suffering from all of that.

his father that can't take anymore and finally he hung himself. fortunately her mother was re-marrying good man in United State. and she live happily there. that's why she change her nationality into United States and hate Japanese so much.

"but your father name already cleared, isn't he? why you still hate this country so much?"

"it's just political scheme, they just want me comeback and became Japanese Slayer. that's why some politician will be 'late hero' for me, they just want to be hero that can recruit me back to Japan."

"take it easy girls. look they crowed sidewalk along the road to welcoming us."
