While Gravis was making his way over to his first destination, around five hours had passed for Aion, who was still waiting beside the Wind Wall.

WHOOSH!

A mighty Spirit reached Aion's location and came into contact with him. "Where is he?" a thundering voice echoed in Aion's mind.

Aion could only smile bitterly. Gravis was his friend, yet he was still part of the Heaven Sect. It felt kind of weird being between two opposing forces. "He has left shortly after I have destroyed the token," Aion answered back.

Aion felt some annoyance and rage from the Spirit. "Why didn't you stop him!?" the voice practically shouted.

Aion remained calm. "He has broken into the Spirit Forming Realm. You should know about his unprecedented Battle-Strength at the same level. I can't stop him at all."

Instead of calming down, the voice got even more enraged. "What!? It's only been five days! How has he reached Spirit Forming from the sixth level of Magic Gathering in only five days!? Are you lying to me!?" the voice shouted.

Aion could only continue smiling bitterly. "You don't understand Gravis. The first thing I did after I returned was gathering information on where he was and what he did," Aion said back.

"What could he have possibly done to break through so many levels in just five days? He would have needed to start a war with a guild!" the voice shouted back.

"In a sense, that is exactly what he did," Aion said back.

The Spirit shook and stopped for a second. "What?" the voice said back in shock. "How is he still alive then?"

"Gravis used a brilliant plan," Aion started explaining. "First, he went to the Fire Guild and offered them life and death tempering as long as the disciples paid with one body tempering pill. He killed many people like this and gathered a lot of body tempering pills without creating any enmities with the guild."

The voice remained quiet for some seconds. "That is actually a brilliant plan. It seems like I have underestimated this Gravis," it said back.

everything in its range, including Aion's nod. "After that, he went to the Earth Guild but left just as quickly. His next stop was the Darkness Guild, where he did the same thing, as in the Fire Guild, again. Like this, he had gotten enough body tempering pills to achieve
