Lightning Is the Only Way

Chapter 350

Some seconds passed in silence.

"By the way," the Opposer said. "You can probably also guess now why the old bastard and I are enemies."

Gravis was a bit surprised when he heard that. He had expected that they had some enmity because of something that had happened previously, yet his father said that he could guess it now?

Surprisingly, finding out why his father and Heaven were enemies was more difficult than finding out why death existed. But after some seconds of thinking, Gravis felt like he found the reason.

"You're a humongous storage of Energy without a key to open it," Gravis said.

His father smiled. "Well done. You always were a smart kid," the Opposer said.

Gravis felt happy to hear his father praise him.

"After a certain time," the Opposer explained, "I have reached a Realm that no one had reached before me, but the old bastard had noticed it too late. At that point, I was able to resist his influence. Obviously, I can't tell you exactly how I did that since that would definitely force him to act against you."

"So, after I was able to resist his influence, I became the strongest magnet for Energy in the whole world. Yet, since the old bastard can't kill me, he can't access my Energy. As you said, I'm a huge storage room of Energy that the old bastard can't access. So, he tried to kill me with everything he had. This created our enmity."

"Honestly, though," the Opposer said while furrowing his brows. "I don't know if the old bastard is truly unable to defeat me or if he is only acting like he can't. After all, I am an incredible source of attraction for Cosmic Energy. It could also be that he can kill me but just wants me to become fatter."

Gravis' insides shivered. He couldn't hear worry from his father's voice, but he was pretty sure that he felt his father worry. This was the first time in his life where his father appeared like he didn't have full control over everything. That possibility hadn't even crossed his mind.

The Opposer sighed something that Gravis hadn't seen before. "Actually, around five days ago, I felt like I fell into the old bastard's scheme."

"What do you mean?" Gravis asked with worry.
