Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis felt a pit in his stomach.

Wendy looked down at the ground. "You can probably guess what happened next. The executioner had been sent here to kill my husband," her voice quietened. "He never stood a chance."

Gravis also sighed. Wendy went through a lot of hardships. The closest person to Gravis that ever died was Stella, back in his homeworld, which couldn't be compared with losing one's love. They had only been very close friends, and Gravis had still been young.

Wendy continued narrating. "I was devastated for months, and I only felt pain. How foolish was I to believe that Heaven sent my husband back to me? I tried to cope with the situation by learning about history because I wanted to understand why that happened. I went to a city and learned all I could about Heavenborn and how they acted."

"After a long time and a lot of reading, I realized that Heaven didn't care about the individual. It only cares about the whole. Everything that it deems a danger to its rule would be destroyed. The history books said that no one who managed to condense a Will-Aura in the Body Tempering Realm ever survived to reach the Magic Gathering Realm."

Her eyes grew severe, and Gravis could feel rage coming from her. "I was angry, and I started hating Heaven. Why did my husband have to die when he managed to save his life? Did Heaven doom him to be a slave? Was being a slave his only way to survive? At that point, my ambition had returned, and everything I felt before, vanished."

Gravis sighed and thought that if the same thing happened to him, he would maybe also change into something completely different. Something like this could change a person fundamentally.

Wendy gnashed her teeth. "I know that my husband only wants me to live in happiness, and I also know that he would never wish for me to fight against Heaven," then she sighed, "but I am not that strong. I can't forget him, and I only want to meet him in the afterlife."
