Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis had declared his stance towards Heaven and had taken the oath. Yet, to fulfill that oath, he first needed enough power. So, what would be his next course of action?

First of all, Gravis needed to become familiar with his new powers. His father had told him that humans would receive a new weapon when they reached the Nascent Nourishing Realm. Even though Gravis didn't know what that weapon was, he already felt a peculiar feeling that hadn't been there before.

It felt like his centers of power were even more connected than before. When he had been in the Unity Realm, it had felt like cables connected them, but now it felt like they were the same thing, just in different containers. It was hard to put this feeling into words, but this was the closest analogy Gravis could find.

Gravis moved his power around so that everything was perfectly equalized in his being. His body, his Spirit, and his lightning all had exactly the same amount of power now.

Whooom!

Gravis felt some kind of resonation inside his being. Additionally, he also felt like his being was about to pulse. The feeling could be likened to someone knowing that they would be sneezing in a couple of seconds. The pulsing wasn't happening yet, but Gravis knew that he could will it to happen.

Whooom!

Gravis' being pulsed, and he felt a burst of power coming out of his being. Yet, this additional power could not be used like this, making Gravis fall into thought again.

He remembered the feeling of the pulse and moved the power of his being around some more. Gravis realized that he could summon the pulse even when not everything was equalized. Yet, surprisingly, the pulse never became stronger than when Gravis pushed all his power into one center of power. Additionally, that center of power also couldn't be increased further with the pulse. 300% of his power was the maximum.

"Hm," Gravis hummed as he thought some more about this. "There has to be some use for this."

Gravis made the pulse appear again and tried to concentrate it into one center of power. Whenever his being pulsed, that center of power would reach a power of 300%.

Gravis scratched his chin. "Hm, I can't get past the 300% barrier in regards to one center of power, no matter what I do."

Then, Gravis smirked.
