Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis looked to the horizon. There, he could see a lot of black buildings and lightning striking the ground.

It was the Lightning Guild.

Gravis had never intended to become an enemy of the Lightning Guild, but he couldn't help it. They had attacked him, and he had had to strike back. Yet, he never forgot his debt to Gorn. This whole thing was actually a bizarre situation for him.

He wanted to help the Lightning Guild, yet they wanted to kill him. Though, were they wrong in doing that? Not really. He had killed tens of their disciples, after all. This whole thing could create a whole debate about the rights and wrongs of both parties.

Gravis was already inside the Guild Master's and the Vice-Guild Masters' Spirits. They hadn't talked to him yet, which either meant that they weren't happy about him being there, or they didn't recognize him. 'Well, then let me be the initiating party.'

Inside the Lightning Guild, the Guild Master and the Vice-Guild Masters were talking with each other, trying to guess the identity of the new person. There were a lot of confusing things about Gravis.

"I don't know who that is. I've never seen him before. His cultivation could also, at best, be described as weird," said one of the Vice-Guild Masters.

The Guild Master was rolling some steel-balls in his hands and creating annoying, cracking noises with them. Luckily, the Vice-Guild Masters were already used to that sound. "His whole cultivation is so strange," he said to the others.

The two Vice-Guild Masters nodded. "Yeah. He obviously has a Spirit, which means he is at the Spirit Forming Realm, yet the Magic I feel from him is like he is at the third level of Magic Gathering," said one of the Vice-Guild Masters. They could only feel the Energy passively stored inside Gravis' body. His dantian only had lightning, after all.
