Gravis was a bit taken aback by the comment. How was he weird? These things were obvious, and someone as powerful as the Empress should be able to see the logic in his decisions. A smart, educated, and thought-through decision couldn't be called weird!

"How am I weird?" Gravis asked, genuinely confused.

"Your personality keeps changing!" the Empress transmitted to him in frustration. None of the other beasts should hear her talking like this. After all, she still needed to keep up her image in front of her subjects.

"First, you walked with arrogance to the group of Lords that said they could defeat a Half-Step King."

"Then, you seemed domineering and impressive after killing that level four Lord."

"Then, you appear like you don't care after your so-called fight with the red hawk."

"Then, you appear like an embarrassed child after winning against that mammoth."

"Then, you appear like a schemer with trust issues."

"And now, you appear like you have just immediately changed your personality just because I have said some words. Even worse, everything points to the fact that you genuinely meant that. How is it even possible that a beast can change that easily and quickly!?" the Empress nearly rambled.

"I can't get a read on your personality because it seems all so jumbled up! Then, you have these strange powers that are so strange that not even I, a level three Emperor, know how they work!"

"Your personality is weird! Your powers are weird! You are weird!" the Empress concluded after her rant.

Only Gravis and the white ape heard what the Empress had said. Such rambling would show an indecisive side of the Empress and wasn't something that the other beasts were supposed to hear.

The white ape only sighed when he listened to the Empress. He didn't like how casually she put it, but he wholeheartedly agreed. Gravis was weird!

Gravis felt a bit embarrassed when he heard her ramble. However, he also understood that his conduct seemed weird in the eyes of beasts that didn't know him. Hell, his personality was even somewhat weird when compared to humans.

All of these rapid changes of mood and conduct from him had reasons behind them, but it would take forever to explain all of them to her. Additionally, she probably wouldn't even be interested in such a long session of explaining.
