The King of Grangold is the ruler of Grangold in Monster Girl Quest Paradox. While he originally appears in his human form like in the original series, it is revealed that his proto-human blood has been awakened by the Lilith Sisters.
Biography
The King of Grangold is briefly mentioned in Part 1, whispered by soldiers about a monster that ignored swords and magic alike, destroying all that crossed paths with him.
In Part 2, while Luka is on his way to Grangold to infiltrate the castle, there are several glimpses of the King of Grangold battling with the army. Indeed, he ignores mortal blows and retaliates with massive area-clearing magic. Only muttering that his "queen needs him back."
Once in the city, after having Lazarus open a route inside the Grangold Palace, he is encountered in the sewers. Both Lazarus and Merlin gun him down and use high-tier fire magic, to no success. Then, it seems that for the first time, the King Of Grangold shows his true power, transforming into a magical chimera. To fend him off, Lazarus and Merlin leave the party. Upon reaching Lilith, a short cutscene is played of Lazarus and Merlin talking to the King, before earth magic appears to collapse the area, courtesy of Tamamo.
After beating up Lilith and all that transpires after that, the King of Grangold is freed of his brainwashing and reconciles with Queen Ant, who then both reside in the brick warehouse to the right of the castle, which is under repair from the battle. The first thing Grangold King asks if the party is to take care of the Lady's Village situation, as well as the civil war going on in Succubus Village. He promises to reward the party well and gives out various unique weapons and a Genji Glove for completing it.
Later on, while Spider Princess alongside the other 3 Monster Queens are attacking various cities, Grangold King appears to be taking a rest. After Luka and co fend off 2 waves of spider monsters, Spider Princess gets news that the Grangold Castle is devoid of people and in disrepair, with the King nowhere in sight. Furious, Spider Princess appears to want to take it out on the citizens, but the camera pans to the brick warehouse, and the door opens. Grangold King takes a single step forward, apparently wanting to enjoy some fresh air. A moment of silence occurs before he notices the spider army attacking, and then he teleports to the right wing of the spider monsters and wipes them all out in a single breath.
The party is shocked. Spider Princess is also shocked before also teleporting to where Grangold King is and fighting him. After the party regains their senses, Atlach-Nacha, a mini-boss, appears and engages the group in a battle. In the time it takes to beat her up, Spider Princess orders a retreat and vanishes. Not even a second later, Grangold King appears in front of the party and demands to join, vowing vengeance upon the Spider Princess.
He makes a small appearance during the Pocket Castle Meeting in the Collaboration Scenario to comment on the fact that leaders being brainwashed is extremely common.
