Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis didn't immediately consume the corpse since that would waste some of its power. After all, he wasn't at his peak. He first needed to regenerate to his current peak so that he could transform into lightning without his Realm falling further. That would only take around two hours.

Whoooop!

Yet, Gravis also didn't want to just let the corpse lay there. Because of that, he summoned it into his Spirit Space. His Spirit Space was quite massive by now, but he still needed to fold the corpse so that it actually fit inside. His Spirit Space had a width of two kilometers, enough for the corpse to fit but not enough for it to lay stretched out.

"Where did the corpse go?" the Red King asked as he flew over to Gravis.

Gravis furrowed his brows. He hadn't forgotten about the Red King, but he was still angry that the Red King looked at him like he was a commodity.

"I have a separate space where I can store dead stuff," Gravis explained curtly and vaguely. He didn't want to tell the Red King more than was necessary.

The Red King had a shocked expression on his face. "Have you comprehended a Law regarding space?" he asked.

Gravis shook his head. "No, it's just something unique to me in this world. You have seen the extent of my power, so you also know which Laws I know," Gravis said with an unfriendly voice.

The Red King didn't seem to mind Gravis' disrespectful tone, but he still released a sigh of relief. "I have never heard of such an ability, but it's more believable than you knowing Laws regarding space. After all, these Laws have only appeared in legend."

Gravis remained silent.

When the Red King saw that Gravis didn't answer, he only laughed and circled him a bit. "You have many peculiar abilities. You can transform into lightning, make stuff vanish and reappear, increase and weaken your body, heal yourself instantly, make objects levitate, and you even have this weird force-field around you that slows your opponents. You're the most bizarre beast I have ever seen."

"Every advantage has a disadvantage," Gravis simply said.

The Red King laughed some more. "Yes, I know. All these peculiar powers probably have a cost. Tell me more," the Red King said.

"I don't want to," Gravis answered.

The Red King furrowed his brows. "You do know that your life is in my talons, right?" the Red King asked.

"Yes, but you're suppressing me, and that's the thing I hate the most," Gravis answered evenly.

The Red King narrowed his eyes. "Do you hate it more than losing your life?" he asked threateningly.

"I don't think so, but you won't kill me," Gravis answered as he looked into the Red King's eyes.

"What makes you so sure?" the Red King asked as he landed before Gravis. In comparison to Gravis, he looked incredibly tiny and unthreatening. Yet, that couldn't be further from the truth.
