The Red King sighed again and looked at Gravis with a serious expression. What he was about to say will change the whole dynamic between him and Gravis.

"The Empress has a fondness for special food, and you fulfill all these-"

"Shut up, you lying piece of shit," Gravis interrupted the Red King with a sneer.

The Red King was shocked when he heard that. At first, he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Did he just get insulted by some Lord? He would have never believed that a mere Lord would insult him like that. This felt so surreal to him.

"Lying?" the Red King asked in a threatening tone.

"Yeah, lying," Gravis answered.

The Red King was still taken aback, but he soon recovered. Then, the Red King just laughed menacingly. "So, that's it," the Red King said. "You aren't able to handle the truth and avert your eyes-"

"No, you're just lying," Gravis interrupted him again.

The Red King took another deep breath to calm down. Gravis' constant interruptions made his blood boil. "And what, pray tell, makes you think that I'm lying?" he asked with narrowed eyes.

"For starters," Gravis said as he pointed at the Red King, "You objected to me calling you a liar but didn't object to me calling you a piece of shit. That's a pretty good indication that you're lying."

The Red King's face transformed into a grimace. He hadn't even thought about that.

"Additionally, if I would be killed in five years, you could just kill me now and freeze my body. Like this, you wouldn't need to fear me going for a 'walk'."

"Also, you want power above everything else, and you sounded pretty convincing when you said that I would be your future enemy. This means that you know that I won't just die as soon as I arrive there."
