Aris remained silent as he wrestled with his pride. His mind told him that everything that Gravis said was the truth, but he also felt that if he accepted the truth, he would lose. Accepting that someone else was right was always very difficult.

Gravis shook his head again. "Do you guys know what the most important thing is for becoming powerful?"

Aris was a bit surprised by such a stupid question. The answer was obviously power!

"Power itself!" Aris said, surprising the other two. Aris was willing to talk now?

"Power is the goal, not the prerequisite. What do you need to become truly powerful?" Gravis asked.

"Battles and a powerful body," Aris said.

"Half-true, Aris," Gravis said. "You were right with the necessity for battles, but the body part is not as important. After all, your body is already part of your strength, and you can change it however you want. Let me show you something."

Then, Gravis transmitted an image into the heads of his three children.

The three were a bit confused why Gravis transmitted this image. Wasn't this just some weak eel?

"This is the body I had after arriving in this world," Gravis said with a smirk.

Immediately, all three of them were shocked. This had been their father's body at some point? But this body was so weak and full of flaws! The body was slow, fragile, and had nearly no weapons. This body was about as bad as it could get!

"You should have noticed by now that it is possible to alter your body after every evolution. Right now, your instincts tell you to stay in this body and to become as small as possible. Yet, is that the correct choice?" Gravis asked with a smirk.

Before they could answer, Gravis sent another image. "This was my body after the first evolution," Gravis said as he showed them the image of the fleshy eel with an alligator head.
