Lightning Is the Only Way

The visiting Vice-Guild Master of the Fire Guild had watched everything go down with shock. Gravis had practically played those two people to death. He hadn't used his Will-Aura and had used his weapon only once to parry an attack. Gravis' strength made his heart beat faster in nervousness. Someone like this could do whatever he wanted in the Middle-Continent. Why was he still here?

The Vice-Guild Master of the Fire Guild shook his head and quickly went over to the two heavily injured people. "Are you still alive?" he asked them.

"Barely," sent the Guild Master with his Spirit. Meanwhile, he coughed some more blood. Some shrapnel had pierced his lungs. After he said that, he retrieved some healing pills from his Spirit Space and ate them, also swallowing a lot of blood. The Vice-Guild Master of the Earth Guild did the same thing.

Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!

Fragments of his shield got pulled out of the Guild Master's body as he used his Spirit to remove them. More blood flowed, but the pill had enough nutrients and Life Energy to heal this. Slowly, his injured body started healing.

If he hadn't had some Spirit left over from the fight, he wouldn't even have been able to do that. His Energy, though, had been completely exhausted. The shield had absorbed all his Energy before it broke. If it hadn't, his body would have been distributed onto the surrounding kilometers.

The Vice-Guild Master was better off. He didn't have any shrapnel inside his body and had less broken bones. Yet, he was still in no condition to fight. In comparison to the Guild Master, though, he still had Energy left. He had used a lot to support his Guild Master, but everything had been over too fast.

The Vice-Guild Master of the Fire Guild nodded. "Alright," he said, "I'll go to the Earth Guild and look at what he is going to do."

"Go ahead," sent the Guild Master.

The Vice-Guild Master nodded and left for the Earth Guild. By now, he had decided that he wouldn't get involved with Gravis anymore, even if Gravis decided to massacre the whole guild. There was a difference between a life and death battle and suicide. When he had first seen Gravis, he still held a glimmer of hope. He thought that if they all fought him together, they could win. Now, he didn't think that anymore.

Meanwhile, Gravis had already arrived at the Earth Guild's entrance. Many disciples gathered at the entrance. They had noticed that their Guild Master and Vice-Guild Master had left the guild, but they hadn't seen Gravis since he hadn't appeared in public. He had, after all, only been speaking to the experts via his Spirit.

The disciples saw Gravis appearing and narrowed their eyes. Their leaders had just left the guild, and now an unknown person had arrived. Though, the new arrival only radiated Energy equivalent to the seventh level of Energy Gathering. His arrival was probably only coincidence.
