Chapter 55 - Blue Rose Base

According to the information given to him by sister Theresa during his early days, the Blue Rose magic knight squad is a special squad due to it being composed solely of women and having the motto of refusing to worship and idolize any man. For a naive man, the Blue Rose base could be seen as a promise land, but from what Grim was told by Finral, the male members of the squad actually served as errand boys to the women and have sacrificed their masculinity for a love that they will never receive.

In simple terms, its the home of the simps.

Standing above the base with his broom, Grim closed his eyes and sensed the ki and mana of those insides.

'A couple on the upper layers and a few on the middle ground... While fighting more opponents would be fun, I can't afford to waste time since I can't use my grimoire or specific spells.

[Breath of Flames]

Breathing lightly, the orange glow of his magic element wrapped itself around his body.

Since [Breath of Flames] was his most destructive breath style without the use of his swords, Grim decided that it'd be wise to use this one in order to complete his mission.

'I should also change up the way I talk so I can avoid suspicion if they ever manage to suspect me... Now the question is, what kind of personality should I go for? I could try to copy Finral but something about that makes me cringe. I could try acting like Asta but I'm not particularly a fan of yelling. Luck's personality is too volatile and I'd probably lose myself in the act. Magna's is too in your face and Gordon's is too quiet and a bit too creepy for my taste. I guess I could act like Gauche, but do I really want to act like a sis con? I don't know why I'm even considering it. I guess that only leaves Yami... For some reason I don't think I'd be able to pull it off though.'

[A/n: Yami is one of a kind.]

*Sigh* 'I guess I could take aspects of Finral's and mix some of my personality in... Yeah, lets go with that for now.'

Nodding to himself, Grim put his mask on and floated down towards the Blue Rose base.

"Hey Risacca, do you think sis is okay?" Standing in a beautifully furnished room, the boisterous Sol lay on her friend's bed while the mȧturė looking Risacca stood in front of her mirror and checked her figure out.

"I'm sure she's fine. The captain isn't so weak that she needs you to worry about her."

"I know, but I can't help but feel uneasy y'know." Sol sighed.

"I know." Risacca nodded. "But as members of the Blue Rose, we have a duty to believe in our captain."

"Aww, isn't that nice."

Freezing in place, the Sol jumped off the bed as the two women quickly span around in direction of the mysterious voice only to see a masked man in black sitting on the windowsill while looking at them and stroking his chin.

"No need to stop for me, just carry on with your conversation and pretend that I'm not here." The man said hurrying them along.

"..."

"..."

Surprised by the man's appearance, Risacca and Sol fell silent for a second before their grimoires started glowing.

"Whoa, whoa whoa!! No need for that ladies." The man said waving his hands in front himself.

"Who are you!" Sol snarled while channeling her magic.

"Me? I'm just your friendly neighborhood peeping Tom. Who are you?"

"..."

"..."

"Risacca."

"Yes Sol?"

"Prepare to get someone with healing magic."

"Right away."

"Sorry beautiful, but I'm afraid that more than two women is a bit too much for me to handle at the moment."

"Humph!"

Activating a spell from her grimoire, a stream of water shot out of her hand an extinguished the flames.

'Hoh? A water mage, unexpected by very welcomed.'

Smiling, Grim got up and looked at the damp ground and started nodding before looking back up at Risacca.

"Y'know, I've never had a girl squirt this much for me."

Hearing him, Risacca face suddenly went dark.

"Sol." She called in a dark voice that made Sol feel nervous.

"Yes?"

"Forget the healer, they'll be useless by the time I'm done with him."

"Oh wow!!" Grim exclaimed. "I didn't think you'd be this into this threesome."

"SHUT UP!!" Risacca screamed losing her composure and shooting a high pressured ball of water at him.

*FWOOSH!!*

'Damn, took you long enough to attack.'

Positioning himself in front of the window, Grim spread his arms out wide an received the attack head on.

*BANG!!*

Thrown back by the force of the spell, Grim's body shot through the open window and was sent sprawling towards the hard concrete.

"Did you get him?" Sol asked.

"Of course." Risacaa pushed her ċhėst out with pride.

"Hey!!" Grim's voice rang out from the outside. "While I like swimming and all that, I'd prefer to be doused in a different kind of liquid if you catch my drift!!"

"He's alive!"

"Impossible!!" Risacaa denied and ran towards the window.

"Yo." He waved when he saw both girls looking out the window.

Seeing him standing there unharmed, Risacca unintentionally growled.

"My turn!" Sol grinned and hopped out of the window.

"SOL!!" Risacaa yelled.

'So its the earth mage now.'

*THUD*

Landing with a dull thud, Sol walked towards Grim while stretching her arms.

"Since sis isn't here at the moment, punishing you will be my job."

"I'm not a fan of BDSM so imma have to turn you down in that regard."

"It wasn't a request."

"Wow, haven't you ever heard of no means no?"

[Earth Creation Magic: Divided Mother Earth]

Summoning 4 giant earth golems, Sol had her puppets surround him.

"Now you want to make it gangbang? You've got some pretty extreme kinks."

Ignoring him, Sol thrust her hands forward and ordered the golems to attack.

"Heh." Grim grinned when he saw the golems fist growing larger in his eyes.

"I guess we're gonna play rough."

*BANG!!*

As the fists crashed down on his figure, Grim managed to jump above them and plant his feet on one of the golems arms. Running up the golems arm, Grim charged from the wrist to the shoulder before launching himself in to the air.

While up there, he covered his fists in flames and fell toward Sol's figure.

"SOL!!" Risacaa screamed from the balcony.

[Earth Magic: Mud Wall Partition]

Slamming her hands on the ground, a thick wall of mud ascended from the ground and bore the brunt of his attack.

*Crack*

"Huh!?"

*BANG!!*

Bursting through the blockade, Grim continued to drop towards her.

"SOL RUN!!"

*BANG!!*

Barely managing to jump out of the way in time, Grim's fist left a small crater in ground as sweat dripped from Sol's face.

"More... Show me more!!" Grim laughed forgetting that he was meant to conceal his identity.

Covering his other hand with fire magic as well, Grim charged towards Sol.

"Stay back you pervert!!"

Activating a spell from her grimoire, Risacaa shot a pressurized jet stream of water at Grim

'Whoa!!'

Seeing the attack, Grim didn't attempt to avoid it and let himself get pushed back.

"Risacaa!" Sol turned to look at her.

Using a spell that created a staircase of water under her, Risacaa quickly made her way down and joined Sol.

"Sorry for interrupting, but I couldn't let that pervert anywhere near you. Who knows what he would have done if given the opportunity."

"Kehehehehehe." A weird laughter erupted from the distance. "Finally deciding to join in eh? Getting jealous?"

"You scoundrel! How dare you utter such absurd statements!!"

"Yeah!" Sol agreed. "Now that the two of us are together, there's no way you'll beat us!"

"Is that so?" Feeling the movement of Ki and mana from inside the building, Grim realized that they were being too loud and had most likely been heard by the others.

'Fuck, they haven't hit me enough yet... That sounded more mȧsȯċhɨstic than I would have liked.'

Realizing that his time was quickly running out, Grim needed them to hit him with stronger spells.

'I should target their pride and anger them.'

"You think that the two of you stand a chance? Y'know, since you're girls and all that, I'll take it easy on you and fight with one hand behind my back."

"What!" Seeing him look down on them and put his left hand behind his back, the two girls felt like he was underestimating them.

"Y-You!!"

"What? Don't tell me that you want me to put my other hand behind my back too? I mean it wouldn't really make a difference but I guess its good to make you guys feel like you could do something."

Feeling their rage start to bubble up, Grim watched in joy as their grimoires started glowing brighter.

"Ooh, a big spell is coming! They just need a little push.'

"Is Charlotte in? I have a bet going on with another pervert that I'll be able to fuċk her into submission, so any news regarding her whereabouts would be much appreciated."

"..."

"..."

"DIE!!"

Unleashing the strongest spells in their grimoires, Grim underestimated the power in their attack and sneakily switched to breath of the Beast.

*Sigh* 'I really need to find a better way to get new breath styles.'

---

*Huff* *Huff*

Breathing heavy, both Risacca and Sol found themselves sitting down as they had just used up a ton of mana in that final spell.

"We did."

"Yeah." Sol nodded looking pleased with herself.

"Hey!!" Members of the Blue Rose came running out after hearing the commotion. "What's going on?" They asked after seeing Sol and Risacca covered in sweat and sitting on the courtyard grounds.

Barely managing to catch their breaths, the two of them explained the situation and pointed to the area the spell had hit Grim.

"A masked man in black?" One of them asked after going over to the destroyed area.

"Yeah, he was wearing a black mask as well."

Crouching down, the woman picked up a piece of black cloth and returned to the others.

"This was all I found."

"Impossible." Risacca rejected. "Even the captain wouldn't be able to walk off that attack let alone some random pervert."

---

'FUCK!!'

Sitting down in a location not to far from the Blue Rose base, a bloodied Grim sat with his back against a rocky wall as he focused on breathing and controlling his pain. Right now every inch of his body was screaming out in pain and begging for him to rest.

Gritting his teeth, he discarded his black robes and changed into the clothes he had stashed away before attacking the base. If not for [Breath of the Beast] and his enhanced evasion ability granted to him by the Transparent World, Grim doubted that he would have been able to completely avoid the attack while also taking enough damage to achieve his goal.

'Ha! I know I asked for it and everything but, if I ever get the chance, I'm gonna go back and kick their ȧsses.'

Grinning to himself, he looked at his shining grimoire.
