(King Realm)

"I've seen many things Grim. I've seen ninjas using their hands to throw gang signs at each other, transendent souls turn into buŧŧerflies with a weird eye vȧġɨnȧs on their foreheads and pink haired male historical figures that were cuter than 99% of the female population that it made me question my sėxuȧŀity at one point."

"..."

"Now you're probably wondering why I'm telling you all this right? Well my point is I've seen shit. A lot of shit. Some of that shit was my doing, sometimes it was just there for me to clean up. Sometimes things are fuċkėd, sometimes they aren't. But never in any of my previous lives did I say what you just said."

*Spits out blood*

"Hah, is that all you've got you bitchass chicken fuċker?"

Laughing at the wounds on his body, Grim sat tied up on a chair facing Rhya and the elf turned magic knights who were standing in front of him. Having taken his grimoire away leaving him unable to use any of his spells, he was forced to take a beating from Rhya and the others before being healed and repeating the cycle.

Apparently it was a good way to pass the time.

"I'll admit kid, you've got guts." Rhya complimented using his light magic to heal Grim's wounds.

"But don't think for an second that you're gonna get out of this in one piece. If it wasn't for Licht not wanting to kill you, do you honestly think you'd still be breathing right now?"

"Who knows." Grim shrugged not taking the beating seriously.

*Sigh*

'What is with this kid? I know Licht doesn't want us to kill him but, he's seriously aggravating! No matter how much magic we hit him with, he keeps smiling!'

Noticing that there was still a few minutes until they would reach the capital, he nodded to the elf inhabbiting Luck's body.

"Your turn next Lufulu."

"Finally!!" He laughed joyfully as sparks of blue lightning danced across his hand.

"Oh?" Grim raised his eyebrow when he saw Luck's figure arrive in front of him.

"Try to do better than the last guy will ya. This is starting to becoming boring."

"Hahahaha." Lufulu laughed as he placed his hands on both sides of Grim's head. .

"I just need to make sure he doesn't die right?" He looked at Rhya.

"Yeah." He nodded. "Since Licht didn't kill him, its likely that he doesn't want him dead yet."

"Gotcha!"

*Crackle*

Manifesting his lightning magic, on his palms, he sent a current directly into Grim's body.

"AHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!" Grim screamed as laughter started escaping out of his mouth.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"

Hearing him laughing at his efforts, an unexplainable expression crossed Lufulu's face as he ramped to voltage up even higher.

"ARGHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!! MORE MORE MORE!!!"

'What is wrong with this kid?!'

Watching the light show from a safe distance, the elves couldn't help but wonder what this kid's problem was. Despite torturing him with many different types of magic, he always took it in stride and even looked like he was enjoying it to a degree. This lead them to feel like something wasn't right. And if it was up to them they would kill him this very instance.

"That's enough Lufulu!" Rhya suddenly stopped him. "Anymore and you'll actually kill him."

"Tch." Looking at Grim's sizzling body, he probably would have backed off it wasn't for that mocking smile Grim was flashing his way.

[Lightning Magic: Thunder Arrow]

Manifesting a solid arrow made from pure lightning magic, Grim had a flash back to the Royal Knight exam.

'I see... So if the lightning user is strong enough they can fire off the spell without the help of others.'

During the Royal Knight exam, when fighting against Rill, Luck, Klaus and the fat woman with wing magic from the Blue Rose squad joined their magic together to create the [Thunder Arrow].

But here was someone using Luck's body to do the exact same thing but by themselves... The gap between this guy and Luck was waay to large.

*Stab!!*

"GYAHHH!!"

"LUFULU!!" Rhya screamed seeing the [Thunder Arrow] lodged into Grim's ċhėst.

Pulling him back, he rushed to Grim's side and started using healing magic.

'Dammit! I don't know if I can heal this!'

"Oi half breed." He called the bȧrėly conscious Grim. "Looks like you're gonna lose conscious soon, so before you do I gotta tell you something. I don't know how long you're gonna be asleep for but, by the time you wake up its likely that all the humans in this kingdom will be gone. So if there's someone's you want me to deliver a message to before you pass out, now's the time. Think about it as your final goodbye."

Listening to Rhya's words, the realization that this might actually be the end of the Clover kingdom finally dawned on him.

'This... is the end huh.'

Seeing that he wasn't responding, Rhya figured that he didn't hav-

"After I fall unconscious... Can you deliver a message to my girlfriend?"

'Someone like this is capable of getting a girlfriend?'

"Tell her... that she's the best piece of ȧss I've ever had... Its the least you could do."

"Sure kid, if I come across her I'll tell her. What's her name and address anyway?"

*Looks up at Rhya confused*

"You don't know your own mother's name and address?"

(Present time) (King Realm)

"Pffthahahahahahahahahahahahaha!! And to think you passed out after you said that! You should have seen the look on his face! The other elves had to basically pull him off you!"

Laughing hard at what had just happened, the distorted King wiped a tear from his eyes as he did his best to contain his laughter.

"Fucking priceless! That'll make a good memory in the long run."

"Yeah, yeah." Grim brushed it off. "How long till I wake up?"

"Hmm?" King hummed.

"With your current constitution thanks to your [Breath of the beast] base, your enhanced recovery speed from being a Demon Slayer and Rhya's healing magic, I'd say 5 more minutes give or take."

"5 minutes... Yeah, that's enough time... What about my grimoire?"

"Its in the other room, not even locked up or anything. Probably didn't even consider you'd be able to recover this quickly. Not to mention you're tied to a chair and all."

"Yeah." Grim agreed. "Mages have really weak bodies, in their minds I probably wouldn't be able to escape without magic. To bad my base strength is enhanced."

"Mmm." King nodded. "But you could have escaped earlier right? With your physical strength alone no rope at that level would have been able to bind you. I mean it wasn't even magically enhanced or anything."

"I was waiting for my mental fatigue to recover. I'm still not used to using [Hyper Focus] like that yet.. And besides *grins* they were giving me a free powerup."
