The Empress was a bit confused by Gravis' bow. She wanted to say that he was acting weird again, but after remembering that Gravis technically didn't count as a beast, she decided not to comment on his behavior. Instead, she acted like he had not said anything and simply continued with her agenda.

"Empress, Grand Elder," a new arrival said as he appeared before the Empress in a bow. Gravis had barely been able to see this new beast arriving, but at least, he managed to notice it this time.

This was an Elder, an Emperor. For the first time, Gravis was able to follow the movements of an Emperor. He was closing in on their power.

"This is the one," the Empress said as she gestured to Gravis, "proceed as ordered."

"Yes, Empress," the new arrival said.

This new beast was a red wolf. Obviously, he had an affinity towards the fire element. Right now, he was only two meters tall, but his true size was way bigger.

The red wolf turned to Gravis and smiled. "Hello, Gravis," he said with a friendly tone. "I'm Elder Ferris, and I will be your guard and guide for the next 100 years."

Gravis nodded with politeness. "Hello, Ferris. I'm Gravis. Thank you for your help," he said.

Ferris wasn't the biggest fan of Gravis not calling him an Elder, but he had noticed that Gravis even talked to the Empress and the Grand Elder like this. Due to that, he just let it slide. Additionally, Gravis had an incredible Battle-Strength, and Ferris felt him worthy enough to call him by simply his first name.

"You can go now," the Empress said. "If there's anything that proves to be an issue, simply inform Ferris or another Elder. They will report it to me."

"Will do, Empress," Gravis nodded. "See you later, Grand Elder, Empress," Gravis said.

"Good luck, Gravis," the Grand Elder said with a smile.

'Luck, huh?' Gravis thought but decided just to accept the well-wishes. Then, Ferris and Gravis left the Mountain of Pride but stopped at its foot.

"What did the Empress offer you that you're willing to follow me for an entire century?" Gravis directly asked Ferris with a voice transmission.

Emperors had a different status to Kings, and sending an Emperor to keep watch over a level three King would definitely be beneath them. If the Empress recklessly commanded these Elders, they might decide to join another Empire. This meant that he had to have been offered something for his services.

Ferris simply smirked. "To follow you around, I get the reward of following you around," Ferris said with a joking tone.

Gravis furrowed his brows and looked at Ferris with confusion. "Could you elaborate?"

Ferris chuckled a bit. "Simple. You have access to every Law Comprehension Area for the next century. This means that you will obviously spend the next century in these Law Comprehension Areas. After all, you wouldn't let such an opportunity slide."
