Old Man Lightning combed his beard, pleased. "That's a good decision, Gravis," he said with a smile.

Gravis nodded. "It's hard finding high-grade Spirit Beasts that actually want to fight. After all, they have reached the end of their cultivation journey. Why would they want to temper themselves then? Yet, this Ogre seems to be different, at least by what I have read about it. Apparently, it's making a lot of troubles for everyone."

Old Man Lightning nodded. "Yes. It's called the Ogre due to its similarities to the mythological creature. In actuality, it's just some big ape or gorilla. I haven't seen it myself, so I don't know."

Gravis lifted an eyebrow. "I was wondering about that name. So, there's some mythological creature called Ogre?" he asked.

Old Man Lightning scratched his chin. "Well, calling it mythological might be a hyperbole. As far as I know, we once had those creatures."

"And I'm guessing we don't anymore?" Gravis asked.

Old Man Lightning nodded. "Yep. The Ogres were a species of big, hairy, human-like brutes. I think they could be counted as a mixture between a human and a beast."

Both of Gravis' eyebrows lifted. "A mixture of human and beast? How would that even work?" he asked.

Old Man Lightning rubbed his beard in thought. "It's hard to explain. Anatomically, they were pure beasts, yet surprisingly enough, they managed to mate with humans. That's why they were so peculiar."

Gravis put his hand on his chin in thought. "Mate with humans as a beast? I didn't know that was even possible."

Old Man Lightning shrugged. "Well, it isn't anymore. We, humans, like having beasts due to the potential tempering we get from fighting them. That's why the beasts still exist, even though we could probably eradicate them. But those Ogres went too far. You should know how something as simple as a beast reacts if it finds a weaker mate."
