Lightning Is the Only Way

Cynthia looked at the regenerated Gravis with a slightly opened mouth. She seemed rather shocked by what she saw. "You look incredible," she commented.

Gravis blinked a couple of times out of confusion. Then, he pointed at himself with a questioning look. "Me? How do I look incredible?" he asked in genuine confusion. Where did that comment suddenly come from?

Cynthia looked back at Gravis with an annoyed expression. "Don't act like you don't know," she said.

Gravis shook his head in surprise again. "But I genuinely don't know. I really don't get it. No one has ever said something like that to me," Gravis said.

Cynthia was a bit taken aback. "No one?" she asked.

Gravis nodded. "Yes, no one. I really don't get it. You're some kind of cat, and I'm some kind of lizard thing. My body doesn't even conform to any general look of any other beast. How could something like this be incredible or attractive?" he asked.

Cynthia lifted one of her eyebrows in confusion. "So, you really don't know?"

Gravis groaned. "No, I don't," he said.

Cynthia looked at Gravis again and scanned his entire body. "The more powerful we beasts become, the more we realize the combat potential of different bodies. At the beginning of our journey, we mainly look at beasts that look similar to us, but at some point, we can only see the inadequacies of other bodies. This completely changes our tastes for a mate."

Gravis was still confused. "But you have fur, while I have scales. You walk on four legs, while I walk on two. You have paws, while I have hands. We both are nearly as far away from each other in terms of looks as it gets."

"That's why you look incredible," Cynthia said. "When you didn't have any arms and legs, you looked weak and vulnerable, something we powerful beasts despise. After all, we all want to reach supreme power, and mating with someone like that would produce weak offspring."
