At night in Shin's room, after Grim agreed to Shin's proposal.

Shin opened a door to his balcony holding a glass of wine and wearing only his pants and silk robe.

He looked at sky.

He closed his eyes and smiled.

"So that's it..." He whispered then he heard a knocked on the door.

"Come in." He said.

It was Selena, she was blushing after seeing Shin without anything on top revealing his looks and body to Selena.

"S-sorry my Lord I did not intend to disturb you." Selena was flustered seeing him like. she always have liked him.

"Don't worry about it. What is it?" Shin asked, he looked at her and snickered.

"Don't be flustered! You're all tough when it's with others. Please be comfortable with me." He said.

"B-but! A-anyway I just wanted to ask why would you let that new guy in? We still don't know him!" Selena asked.

Shin smiled while looking at the glass he's holding and answered her.

"Because I wanted to help him. That's all."

Selena sighed and smiled at what Shin answered,

"You're so kind. Too kind in fact. If that's what you wish then I'll respect it my lord."

If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.

Shin thanked her, Selena bowed and went to her own room.

After she left Shin called Gabriel.

"Look after Grim, I'm pretty sure he's going to try to go at Whiteshore tonight. Even though he don't know how to get there."

Gabriel just bowed and vanished.

After Selena tore off Grim's arm Aguilles stitched it up again and showed Grim the castle.

She also showed him his own room, complete with bed, table and chair with one window making the moon Illuminate the room at night. It was just a small simple room but a cozy one.

The bed is useless to him though since he can't sleep.

They also gave him some clothes to wear, a dark brown full sleeved leather jacket, a belt bag, black pants, and darl brown leather shoes.

Grim looked at the sky from his window and looked at the necklace at the same time.

The stone in the necklace was a little bit different than before, there was some little light inside the stone that Grim never saw before.

He put on the necklace and looked at it again.

"I can't die. I could save them. I should not wait for tomorrow." Grim whispered.

He turned around and opened the door of his room and silently went off the castle not knowing that Gabriel is tailing him.

He looked at his surroundings.

It's full of snow and trees, the castle was located at the peak of a mountain he never saw before. Yet he still tried to find a way to go back.

Grim walked and walked and still can't reach the bottom, but he never got exhausted.

After a while he reached the bottom, he walked straight again until he arrived at the end of the island.

It is a beach on the eastern side of the island.

He tried to look around for boats but there is none around.

He's not breathing anymore so he though he can cross the sea by walking underwater. Just when he was about to go on to the water Gabriel apperead and touched Grim's shoulder.

"You shouldn't do that. Not only the current is strong but there are also sea monsters under there." Gabriel said.

"..." Grim just stood silently.

"Also they'll come here soon." Gabriel continued.

"Come? Who?" Grim asked.

"Holy knights, at your current state you can't beat them. If you wish to save your friends, we can train you." Gabriel said to Grim while pointing at Grims head.

"You might not need to train your body but you can practice magic." Gabriel then smiled softly at him.

Grim remembered his friend Elliot at Gabriel.

"Will you really help me? Why?" He asked the demon butler.

"Because you're already part of us." Gabriel said while walking away from the beach with Grim.
