why is beowulf sure he will win the contest against grendel? group of answer choices god is on his side he knows grendel is sick
iren [92.7K]

It can be inferred that Beowulf is sure he will win the context against Grendel because " he has the best sword ever made".

<h3>What is the evidence that Beowulf's sword helped him defeat Grendel?</h3>

In the narrative, Beowulf runs to the rear of the cave and discovers Grendel dead. He chops off his skull with the Giant sword.

The blood of those two creatures is so toxic and heated that the metal of the sword blade melts and drips away like an icicle, leaving just the hilt in Beowulf's palm.

Beowulf, the epic's protagonist, is a Geatish hero who battles the monster Grendel, Grendel's mother, and a fire-breathing dragon.

Beowulf's boasts and experiences show him to be the most powerful and capable warrior around. In his youth, he epitomizes all of the heroic culture's greatest virtues.
