Lightning Is the Only Way

BRRRRR!

Fire came out of the Emperor, and after a second, it split off of his body. Yet, instead of charging forward, the fire stopped beside the Emperor and took the Emperor's form. In no time at all, a perfect fire-copy of the Emperor flew beside him, also looking at Gravis.

'This is the thing that blocked my Lightning Crescent previously,' Gravis thought. 'This should be his level two Law. He can probably fight with this copy just as well as with his own body. This ability is incredibly useful in a fight, but it doesn't fully concentrate on attack. Either its attack is not as powerful as the spires of the Inquisitor, or it costs a ridiculous amount of Energy.'

"I would have never thought that I would need to use my level two Law of Fire Forming to fight a level four King. You're really as powerful as everyone says," the Emperor said coldly.

Gravis didn't answer. If he wanted to waste time for himself to recover, he would have engaged in this conversation. Yet, as soon as Gravis regenerated everything, the fight would become too easy. Sure, as the fight was right now, he would still get tempering, but not nearly enough for his liking. He wanted to genuinely be in danger.

Seeing that Gravis didn't answer, the Emperor readied himself.

Whoosh!

Yet, his fire copy suddenly started falling down uncontrollably, shocking the Emperor. For some reason, he had suddenly lost control over his fire-copy!

Obviously, Gravis has used his Spirit to destroy the will on the copy. Without anyone controlling the fire, gravity became active and pulled it down.

The Emperor recovered quickly and narrowed his eyes at Gravis. "So, the reason why I couldn't control my fire spears was you. You can cut the connection between me and my element. I don't know what Law that is, but I don't need to know."

Another copy appeared beside him, but there was a distinct difference this time. The difference wasn't in its appearance but in what it was doing. The tails of the lizard and its copy were intertwined. Like this, the copy wouldn't leave the Emperor's side, making it impossible for Gravis to destroy the will on it.

Then, the Emperor charged at Gravis with his full speed. Even fire came out of his legs, which allowed him to accelerate to insane speeds.

Usually, Gravis would have no issues evading such an attack, but he had to conserve his lightning. If he used the Law of Lightning Speed or his explosive acceleration method, he would use too much lightning. He needed to recover. Otherwise, he would never win this fight.
