Lightning Is the Only Way

"Oh, yeah," Gravis muttered to himself as he remembered something. "That one Lord that I have killed before invading the Sand Tribe said that she was from the Stone Tribe. If I recall correctly, the Leader of that Tribe should be a level four Lord."

"Oi, Liza," Gravis transmitted to Liza, who was over a hundred kilometers away. Gravis' Spirit didn't reach that far, but thanks to his Lightning Fork, he could talk to her anyway. "A level two Lord is standing above our Spire. You want that?" Gravis asked.

Liza was a bit surprised. "Already? That was fast," she said and then hummed a bit. "I would rather see your power than eat them myself," she said.

Gravis chuckled a bit. "You don't believe that I can make myself more powerful, eh?" he asked.

Liza only smiled a bit. "I assume that you didn't lie, but that's quite a bold claim anyway. So, yes, I would rather see it," she said.

Gravis chuckled a bit. "Alright, sure. Just stay at the sidelines and watch. It's time I showed the Tribe my technique anyway."

Meanwhile, Gravis flew out of the Spire until he stood before the giant shark. The giant shark was quite surprised by Gravis. He had never seen a beast looking even remotely like him. On top of that, this beast felt incredibly weak. This was, by far, the weakest body of a Lord the shark had ever seen.

"Hey, I'm Gravis, the Leader of this Tribe. I was also the one that killed your officer. So, I think it's me you're looking for," Gravis said with a smirk.

The shark only scoffed in disdain.

Whoooosh!

A powerful, concentrated beam of water shot at Gravis with incredible speed. Gravis was flying, which meant that he had already moved all his power into his Spirit. As soon as the beast showed an inkling of attacking, Gravis activated his Will-Aura and shot to the side.

The beam slowed down due to Gravis' Will-Aura, and Gravis was quickly pushed to the side by his Spirit. Humans could fly faster than beasts since they didn't have to move such a ridiculous amount of weight with their flying technique. Therefore, it wasn't hard for Gravis to evade such an attack.

SHIIIING!

A hole was created that penetrated the whole Spire. The water beam had been quite powerful. Probably no one but Liza could evade such an attack. On top of that, this attack had only been a casual one.

The shark was shocked. Not only did this weak beast successfully evade his attack, but it also exuded some kind of pressure that made the shark move slower. The shark estimated that it could only use around 80% of his speed now.

"Oh, you want to get right to the action, eh?" Gravis asked with a smirk. "Sure, I can come to terms with that. But first, why did it take you so long to get here? I killed your officer like nearly two and a half weeks ago."
