Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis waited a little. Of course, there came no answer.

Gravis thought about this situation some more and concluded that Jaimy had probably died, together with his younger brother. This lower Heaven had watched Gravis constantly, always overseeing everything that happened. When Jaimy had failed in killing him, he had basically helped Gravis in some bizarre way.

This whole incident with him, him throwing Gravis into a ditch, making him insane with anger, and even killing Gorn, had increased Gravis' power. Gravis remembered that Heaven had planned, at the time, to never give Gravis any enemies. It had given him all the resources that he needed, a Guild Master as a friend, and his whole life in this lower world would have gone down smoothly until he reached the Spirit Forming Realm.

Gravis didn't like thinking about Gorn's death in a positive way, but the impact that it had on Gravis' power was significant. Gron's death had sent the Lightning and Fire Guild to kill him, which granted Gravis more tempering for his battle experience and will. Without Gorn's death, he wouldn't have been able to create a Unity Will in the Energy Gathering Stage.

Gorn's death had been one of the consequences that Jaimy's action had brought. Of course, Gravis and even Gorn himself were not without fault.

Additionally, Jaimy's actions had also forced Gravis into a mad struggle for power. Without Gravis' insistence on breaking his body and recreating everything, he wouldn't have been so shameless to demand more lightning from Gorn. At that point, Gravis would have only been able to condense natural lightning. In a weird way, Jaimy's actions had pushed Gravis to power.

Was Gravis thankful to Jaimy? Of course not! Jaimy had tried to kill him. Even though he had failed, he had still mutilated Gravis and even forced him to live off of shit for a while. Something like that couldn't be forgiven.

Gravis and also knew much more. When everything had happened, it saw that Gravis would

Actually, as Gravis thought about it, his father might have even been delighted about the conduct of this lower Heaven. Without it knowing, this lower Heaven had sent tempering experiences to Gravis.

This might seem like a net-positive, but Gravis wouldn't have had the opportunity to increase his physical power. After all, he had gotten most of the body tempering pills from fighting other guilds. The fight with Red, specifically, had even increased
