"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR HAIR?!!"
After beating the elf inhabitting Luck's body, Asta and the rest finally had a minute to catch their breaths.
Looking at the white haired Grim who was oozing with an unfathomable amount of mana, Magna and Vanessa were drawn to his new features. Even the now conscious Luck had a weird look on his face as he was still dealing with the new changes in his own body.
"Fufufu, you seemed to have become a little bit more handsome since the last time I saw you." Vanessa laughed in a teasing tone of voice.
'A little bit?'
Hearing her, Grim froze for a moment and gave her a profound look.
Pointing his finger at her and slightly tilting his head to the side, he performed a magnificent JoJo pose and in a deep voice he said-
"Bitch I'm adorable."
[A/n: White haired Grim just built different]
!!!
Looking like he was surrounded by a divine silvery aura, even the usually flirty Vanessa found her face flushing red as her heart did several sommersaults in her chest.
'What the hell was that!'
Forced to take several steps backwards, she felt her knees suddenly become weak as Grim flashed her a world toppling smile.
"Ahh." Having an unintentional moan escape her lips, Vanessa's entire body felt like it was on fire as she found her eyes glued to his face.
"You okay Vanessa?" Seeing that something was wrong with her, Magna called out to make sure she was okay.
"I-I'm fine!" She half yelled while breathing heavily.
'Damn I'm good.'
Watching her from his position, a small smirk crept onto Grim's face as he switched his attention to the anti magic boy. That being said, the thing that drew his attention was actually the sword in Asta's hand.
"New sword?" He asked.
"Huh? Oh yeah, I got it off that Elf you were fighting backing in the base... WAIT A SECOND!! HOW DID YOU GET OUT OF THE BASE!"
"Really Asta? Look at me, who could keep such a loveable guy locked up?"
[A/n: You know somewhere in the kingdom people are doing a spit-take]
"Oh." Asta made an understanding face. "Did they let you go because you're a half elf?"
"...You heard about that?"
"Yeah, everyone in the base was calling you a half breed after all."
'For some reason I thought he'd somehow miss that.'
"I mean even the guy in Luck's body was screaming at you about being one."
"Wait!" Magna and the others turned to face them. "YOU'RE PART ELF!!"
'Now that makes more sense.'
Not wanting to explain everything to them, Grim shrugged and said "I guess so."
"Erm guys." Asta called out. "Not to get off topic and all, but we need to go help the others."
"Others?"
"Yeah! The other people whose bodies have been taken over by elves and are running wild. I think I'll be able to stop them if I use this sword."
"Speaking of that sword." Grim butted in. "How does it work exactly? It seems a bit different from your other two."
"Mmm." He nodded. "This one seems to have the ability of removing the effects of magic."
"Oh... So in theory it could have undone the curse on your arms from a while back right?"
"I think so."
[A/n: Should of removed Lolopechika's curse then]
Eyeing the sword suspiciously, Grim remembered that the only reason he was able to fight and move the way he could was all thanks to his [Breath of the Beast] base. But if he got hit by Asta's new sword...
"So what do we do now?" Magna asked seeing that everyone was basically ready to go.
"We should head towards the black bulls base." Vanessa said still unable to take her eyes off Grim. "If we're gonna save everyone, we're gonna need all the help we can get."
"Lets go then."
"Actually." Grim spoke up. "I've got somewhere to be, I'll catch up with you guys later."
"What! But we need y-
[Thunderclap and Flash]
Activating his new spell, his body turned in a flash of light as not even a trail of dust was left as he flashed out of there.
"Thank god he's gone!" Vanessa said finally able to breathe properly.
'That smile is way to dangerous!'
"That bastard!" Magna spat. "How could he leave us when-
"Its fine." Asta interrupted looking at the direction Grim had ran off in. "He said he'd catch up to us later."
Not wanting to start a fight with anyone, Magna reluctantly let the matter go.
"How do we even get to the base anyway?"
"You can leave that to me." Luck said finally grasping all the changes in his body.
Closing his eyes for a moment, crackles of lightning started to echo out as he transformed into the form Lufulu had used in the beginning of the fight against the black bulls.
"What the!!" Everyone gasped.
"It worked!!" Luck yelled.
"B-But how!!" Magna asked still shocked by Luck's appearance.
"I don't know, my body seems to remember how that elf guy used my mana. I've gotten even stronger now! I can't wait to fight Grim again!!"

While Asta and the others made their way towards their base, several houses in the town of Nairn were being torn up by the raging magic knights whose bodies had been invaded by elves.
"DIE HUMANS!!"
*BOOM!!*
*BOOM!!*
*BOOM!!*
Using their magic to devestate the surrounding area, the sounds of screams echoed across the town as several houses had collapsed with people still in them. For the ones who managed to make it out before being crushed, the sight of their loved ones buried limbs sticking out of the rubble was enough to cause a mental breakdown.
"MOMMY!!" A young girl screamed while clutching her mother's severed arm.
"Disgusting." Seeing the small girl balling her eyes out in the middle of the road, one of the elves raised their arms and without batting an eye, he fired off an offensive spell.
---
"Sis *sob* I'm scared."
"Its okay, everything'll be okay."
Hiding inside one of the houses that were still standing, a young woman with a bunch a children huddled around her sat quietly as they did their best not to be noticed by the rampaging elves outside.
Unfortunately for them, elves had excellent mana sensing abilities.
*Knock Knock Knock*
The door!!
*Knock Knock Knock*
Hearing the knock again, a bead of sweat dripped down the young woman's face as she realized the worst case scenario had come to pass.
Holding onto the kids even tighter, the group of them closed their eyes tightly as they heard the door swing open.
"What are you guys doing?"
"Huh?"
Hearing a familiar voice, the girl and the rest of the kids raised their heads.
"G-Grim..." The girl said in an unsteady voice seeing the white haired figure.
"Wassup Rebecca."
