Commander Rime's intervention was dangerous to Gravis' path. Gravis' Will-Aura had already grown from the battle, but it hadn't grown nearly as much as normal. The fight had been difficult enough to give him a significant boost to his Will-Aura. The fact that he had been under enough pressure to understand another Law proved that fact.

Yet, Commander Rime's intervention had nearly killed the feeling of danger. If Commander Rime had been ready to interfere with words, it wouldn't be illogical to assume that he would have also been prepared to intervene physically. This fact took away a large chunk of the feeling of danger.

It didn't matter if Commander Rime had been willing to interfere physically or not. The feeling of the situation was all that counted when it concerned tempering. After Gravis had finished the fight, he almost felt like the danger he had been feeling just now was fake, even though it wasn't. This was the damage that someone could inflict by interfering in a fight.

If such interventions happened more, the perceived feeling of danger would vanish and, along with it, the pressure. With no feeling of pressure or danger, Gravis wouldn't be able to temper his Will-Aura anymore. This meant that his path to power would be destroyed. Because of these reasons, it was absolutely imperative that Gravis could never allow anyone to interfere.

"Commander Rime," Gravis said with icy killing intent, "by interfering in my fight, you have endangered my path to power. In order to keep my path to power as pure as possible, I'm required to kill you now as an example to everyone else and myself. I can't allow anyone to interfere!"

The squad was shocked and confused as they heard Gravis' words. Yes, tempering was important, but the fight had made Gravis understand another Law. Wasn't that the only thing that counted? Additionally, Gravis would have won either way. In their mind, Commander Rime's intervention appeared pointless and harmless. It was completely inconsequential!

The badger could understand Gravis' reason and mindset, but he also believed that Gravis was taking this situation way too seriously. If Commander Rime had actually saved Gravis' life, this would be a different story, but he hadn't accomplished anything with his intervention. Just like the squad, the badger thought of the intervention as inconsequential.

Commander Rime shivered when he heard those words. "What are you saying?" Commander Rime asked calmly but in confusion. "I only wanted to save your life since you are such a valuable asset to us. I acknowledge that I shouldn't have interfered, but nothing happened in the end. I only wanted to save your life!"

"I know that," Gravis said coldly, surprising everyone. If Gravis understood, then why was he so filled with hatred? Why was he so hellbent on killing Commander Rime? The Commander only wanted to help Gravis!
