Lightning Is the Only Way

Complete darkness surrounded Gravis. His Spirit was cut off from the outside world, and his eyes were closed. He also ignored everything that he heard. After all, he had to walk forward without any distractions. He only opened his eyes and Spirit for a split second every couple of seconds to see if he was still inside the Illusion Array.

While walking forward, Gravis swung his saber continually to destroy everything before him. He couldn't risk touching a tree right now. If he did, his lightning would unload into nothingness.

His heart pumped quickly. It wasn't because of nervousness, but because of excitement. He could see and feel nothing while one enemy at the Tree Stage and, at least, five enemies at the Sapling Stage watched him. Any one of those could attack him suddenly.

Gravis felt extremely close to death right now. Walking blind around an area where an enemy could strike him created waves inside his mind. This sensation alone was good tempering for him. Even if the others didn't attack him, in his mind, he would have still gone through a life and death crisis. Perception was everything when it came to the tempering of one's will.

BANG!

10% of his lightning unloaded again. This time, Gravis felt his lightning unload itself via his leg. He also quickly felt around 10% of his lightning regenerating. Apparently, he had just killed someone at the Seed Stage.

BANG!

Another unload from the same leg, and another wave of Energy entered his body.

BANG!

And again. Gravis was quite surprised by the disciples' willingness to throw their lives away, but he quickly thought of a reason. Some of the disciples probably made a pact where they decided to exhaust Gravis. After all, every single lightning strike cost Energy, and Gravis couldn't possibly have an infinite amount of that.

He also guessed that Byron had probably offered that gamble. He probably said something along the lines of that any disciple that managed to injure him would get some powerful weapon or something similar.

BANG!

And again!

BANG! BANG! BANG!
