Chương 165: Absolute
"HALT!!"
"Huh?"
Turning his head to look at bloodshot eyed Damnatio, Grim cocked his head to the side and sent him a playful grin.
"Were you talking to me?"
Doing his best to keep his rage under control, Damnatio grit his teeth and calmed the flustered nobles and brang peace back to the parliment. That wasn't to say that he himself could endure what was happening.
He had heard rumors about this so called Grim before and knew that he was not someone easy to deal with. If he wanted to regain control of the situation he couldn't allow the other party to derail him any further... Even if did take a dump on his desk and used several legistative documents to wipe his ass before blatantly stealing his cloak.
Yes... I can't allow myself to get swept up in his pace.
"Ahem." He cleared his throat.
"Where do you think you're going with the prisoners?" Damnatio asked in an authoritative tone.
"Oh? So you were talking to me then."
Frowning again, Damnatio nodded.
"I am."
"Pfft, then I don't need to care." Throwing his arms over the shoulders of Asta and Secre, he continued to head towards a wall.
"Erm Grim, where are we going?" Asta asked feeling that things had taken a weird turn.
Even Marie was looking at him with a massive ? on her face.
"To the exit." Grim laughed. Holding his sword tightly, he swung it down at the wall and opened up a huge hole big enough to fit the four of them.
Feeling a massive amount of mana suddenly crash down on them, Grim, Secre and Marie stopped for a moment as Damnatio's voice rang out again.
"If you dare to take another step forward, the council will have no choice but to see you as an accomplice of the accused."
"The council?" Standing quietly for a moment, Grim raised his head to look at the nobles. Most of which turned their head away as to not meet his eyes.
Seeing that most of them didn't even have to the courage to look him in the eye, how could a threat from some random noble he had never met before scare him.
Turning his head back to Damnatio, he let out a mocking smile
"And who's gonna stop me? You?"
Grinning at the thought, Grim's beast magic exploded out of his body causing the mana in the air to fluctuate wildly and caused a major disruption in the congress as several noble ladies clenched their legs together tightly and started to pant heavily.
"Go ahead and try and the... What was his family name again?" He asked Secre.
"Kira."
"Mmm." He nodded and continued. "And the Kira house will become history before the day's done."
"Is that a threat." Damnatio frowned and asked in a dark voice.
"No." Grim shook his head. "A threat implies that there's a way to avoid it. This is a promise."
"In fact, why wait. I might as well slaughter everyone in this room just to show you how fucking useless you all are."
"TREASON!!" One of the braver nobles stood up and yelled. He immediately regretted it moments later as Grim appeared on the stands and picked him up by the neck.
"Sorry, I didn't hear you the first time. Mind repeating that?"
Smiling at the man's choking sounds, Grim released a chilling wave of powerful mana tinged with hints killing intent at the surrounding nobles grounding them to their seats and forcing them to tremble and perspire heavily as a feeling of fear and helplessness overwhelmed their privileged little minds. Some of the weaker minded nobles even ended up making a mess inside the pants creating a nauseating stench that spread amongst them. But how could they feel embarrassed at a time like this? With the sight of a fellow noble on the brink of death, for the first time in their lives these haughty nobles realized just how insignificant they were.
"You think that just because you have some fancy title that you have power?" Grim spoke down to Damnatio without looking at him as he squeezed the nobles throat even tighter. "I'm getting tired of telling you nobles this but, the only thing in this world that is absolute is power."
Hearing this, Damnatio's figure shook slightly as he held the scales in his hands up.
"Stop this right now." He said in a dark voice.
"You've already broken the law by forcing your way into this sacred parliment, but now you want to add insulting and harming a noble on top of tha-"
"Kiru, Dammy or whatever the fuck your name is" Grim interrupted. "You seem to be
misunderstanding something. You're not the one in control
here. I AM."
"And as for that little trinket you're holding up-"
Turning his head to look at the scales in Damnatio's hand, Grim squinted his eyes and a moment later-
*Clink*
"Its an eyesore."
The chain holding up the pans suddenly broke causing the pans to fall and clang on the ground.
If one took a closer look, they'd see that the snap that broke the chain was to clean. Almost like it had finely cut.
A little trick Grim picked up after digesting the changes in his body left over from his elven form. While he didn't retain any of the power from that form, he became much more in tune with his magic allowing him to do things he never even imagined before.
One of those things being forcing mana in his eyes to activate a pseudo spell.
Compared to how he was before he unlocked his elven form, he was far stronger.
Hearing the the sound of his pans clang against the ground and feeling the now lighter weight of his scale in his hand, Damnatio's mind went blank.
Ignoring the frozen Damnatio and dropping the noble whose life or death status was unknown, Grim gently floated down from the stands in such a leisurely way that one wouldn't think he had just held the entire magic parliment hostage moments before.
Walking past the temporary mind broken Damnatio and arriving in front of a blank face Secre, he reached into his new cloak and pulled out a neatly folded Black Bulls magic knight robe.
"Is that-
Without letting Asta finish his sentence, to Secre's surprise Grim pulled it over her head.
"There, now its offical."
"This..." Unable to understand what was going on, Secre made a confused face that looked unexpectedly adorable.
"You were with Asta all this time right? In my mind that makes you as much as a member of us as him."
"But Yami-
Looking at the embarassed look on her face, Grim couldn't help but place his hand on her hand and grin like and idiot.
"Don't sweat it."

"What happened here?"
Finally recovering from having his scales severed, Damnatio realized that Grim and the accused were nowhere to be seen. Instead two magic knight captains stood before holding a parchment with the wizard king's seal.
