Though Ace and Deuce tried their best to catch Grim, the feline was pretty fast and even managed to dodge Deuce's cauldron. It didn't really help Ace has to use net since his magic was still sealed. Meanwhile, Ren and Morgana were able to use their skills to corner and catch the little runaway.
"Mrrah! Let me go! I've had it with these boring classes!" Grim complains while squirming in Ren's hold.
"Grim, if you don't go you'll never become a great mage." Ren states with a knowing look and the feline halts his struggling.
"Dammit! Why do you have to be so bossy?!" The fire-cat grumbles.
"And how are you so fast!?" Ace asks, out of breath.
"Wow... Is it because of your persona power?" Deuce says in awe.
"Yep! I guess this world allows us to use it more freely." Morgana says.
"That's cheating!" Ace says accusedly.
"You're the one who initiated the bet. Speaking of which, it should be lunch soon and I seem to remember the terms..." Ren states and Ace growls.
~Take Your Time~
When Ren thought of a cafeteria, he half-expected the food to be like what Ann had told him about when she had lived in America for a time. So not appetizing. However, he was not expecting a full-on buffet that could rival the Wilton Hotel.
"Yahoo! Lunchtime at last! Man, they got some good-looking grub!" Grim says excitedly as he checks out the dishes on display.
"I'll say. It looks better than the buffets we went to before." Morgana says, back in the "Mona-bag".
"Indeed. What do you two want to eat first? We'll get anything." Ren agrees then says. Ace and Deuce both groan, seeing as they were paying for it.
"Oh! I know! A fluffy omelet! Some grilled chicken and, and bacon and egg tart! Oh, there is tuna!" Grim says excitedly.
"Hey, give us a break! We're the ones paying for it!" Ace exclaims.
"And whose fault is that?" Deuce asks with a grumpy expression.
"Shut up!" The heart boy retorts. Ren just shakes his head and walks over to the buffet, placing Grim back up on his shoulder.
"Hey, hey, Ren! Grab the grilled chicken! It's the last one left!" Said cat exclaims.
"Alright, one grilled chicken." Ren says and grabs the said dish.
"Perfect! Oh and that tuna! And the omelet too. And that jelly-filled bread. Ah! Just fill your whole tray with one of everything!" The fire-cat says excitedly. Ren couldn't help but laugh.
"Jeez, calm down, would ya? Though I admit, it does look good." Morgana scolds, though can't help his own hunger.
"My-my wallet, I can practically hear its cries..." Ace says in despair. Deuce sighs from next to him. Just then, Ren felt a hard impact at his side.
"Hey! Watch where you're going!" A voice exclaims and the boy turns to see two older boys who looked like trouble. One had silvery-gray hair and the other with reddish-pink hair. "Ah! My carbonara! You broke the yolk in it!" The silver-haired one complains.
"Whoa, that's messed up! Breaking the gooey egg yolk is the best part! You better make this right, pal!" The pink-haired boy said next.
"I'm sorry about running into you, but your carbonara is fine, you can still eat it." Ren apologizes then states.
"That's not good enough!" The silver-haired punk refuses. "I know... How about that grilled chicken as compensation." He then suggests.
"What?! No way! That's our grilled chicken!" Grim refuses.
