Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis remained completely silent and motionless for two weeks. More beasts gathered around the mountains as time passed, but none of them had any interest in getting to know such an unstable beast. Gravis' aura made it very unpleasant for the other beasts to be around.

In these two weeks, Gravis hadn't been able to focus on anything other than his current situation. He tried to calm himself down and forget the whole issue, but that also didn't work. Right now, he felt like he was wasting his entire time since he wasn't able to comprehend Laws at all in his state. Of course, this made Gravis even more frustrated.

"All members of the Empire willing to go to war, gather on the right mountain!" a voice echoed throughout the surroundings.

Gravis' opened his eyes and immediately charged to the right mountain. He had waited arduously for two entire weeks for this announcement, and he didn't want to waste another second. The feeling of not being able to do anything was driving him insane!

BANG!

Gravis violently landed on the right mountain, right in front of a small cheetah. Yet, like every other King, this wasn't the real size of the cheetah. Surprisingly, the cheetah was only a level one King. Gravis had expected a more powerful beast to lead the charge.

The cheetah looked at the 100-meter-tall Gravis. This beast seemed to be quite eager to go to war.

After some more seconds, the other beasts also gathered on the mountain. Only a select few fit on the mountain due to the mountain being so thin and the beasts being so massive. Due to that, a kind of unspoken agreement formed.

Only level five Lords were allowed to set foot upon the mountain while the other Lords kept hovering around it. The only exception to this rule was Gravis.

Most of the level five Lords didn't bother Gravis since they had no interest in coming into contact with such an obviously unstable beast. If they said the wrong thing, he might go crazy and attack them. Of course, that was only how most of the beast thought. There were some exceptions.

"Hey, leave!" an elephant said from beside Gravis with disdain.

Gravis turned his head and looked the elephant in the eyes, and when the elephant saw Gravis' eyes, it felt a cold shudder go across its body. Beasts had very honed instincts, and the elephant felt like it had made a mistake.

"Sorry," the elephant said as it took a step to the side, away from Gravis.
