When Gravis heard the name of the mountain, he felt his insides shake. For some reason, he felt a resonance coming from the mountain when he heard that name, which was something he hadn't felt before. For some seconds, Gravis remained silent as he took in this feeling.

The Red King noticed Gravis' reaction and smirked. Yet, he didn't say anything to bring Gravis out of his thoughts. Some beasts had this sort of reaction when they saw the mountain and heard its name.

Gravis felt like the mountain became even more powerful in his vision. To him, the mountain felt like it was sending out an aura of absolute hegemony. It was like this mountain was showing him that no one would ever be able to suppress it. It felt like the mountain would stay here forever.

"Some beasts feel this resonance," the Red King said after some minutes. He had already seen that Gravis had somewhat recovered, which was why he continued speaking now.

Gravis looked to the Red King. "What does this mean?" he asked.

The Red King smirked a bit. "It means you have a chance of comprehending the Law of Pride in the future."

Gravis narrowed his eyes. "Law of Pride? Something like that exists?" he asked.

The Red King nodded. "Emotions are part of the world, and therefore, have their own rules. So, you can also understand them and use the Laws associated with them."

Gravis thought about this for a bit. The fact that emotions could also take the form of a Law was something he hadn't expected. He had thought Laws were more like the natural workings of the world. He didn't think that something as elusive and personal as emotions could also have Laws associated with them.

Of course, Gravis noticed something else. "This mountain is not natural, is it?" he asked.

The Red King nodded. "The Empress has spent countless years and countless resources to create this mountain. She knew that she was close to understanding pride but was just missing the last realization to understand it. So, she decided to create the most powerful and most imposing mountain in the world."
