Lightning Is the Only Way

All beasts fled. The Ultimates were about to fight, and they had to flee. Gravis was among them. Even if the Lightning Ultimate was no danger towards him, a single error on Meadow's part might end his life. Meadow, obviously, wasn't his enemy, but accidents happen.

The beasts didn't stop until they were over 50,000 kilometers away. There were even two Empires between them and the Ultimates. From this distance, none of them could hear or feel anything that was going on in the distance. They had no idea what was happening over there.

CRRRRRRR!

Suddenly, the earth started trembling. At first, the tremor wasn't very powerful, but as time passed, it became more powerful. Did this tremor originate from the Plant Ultimate? They could feel it even from such a distance!? No beast, not even the Ultimates, should be able to unleash so much power that it could be felt from such a vast distance.

CRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

The tremor became more and more powerful. The beasts looked at the shaking floor that started to split apart into vast crevices. What was going on?

Yet, when they returned their gazes to the horizon, they all froze. What did they see? What even was this!?

A brown sphere made out of an uncountable number of roots rose in the distance. They were over 50,000 kilometers away, but they were still able to see this sphere. How big was this sphere!?

The sphere rose and rose as the ground got destroyed. The two Empires between them and the Ultimates were being decimated. The earth split apart and swallowed the ore and the weaker beasts. It was like the apocalypse had arrived.

After some seconds, the sphere finally fully rose from the ground. Yet, the sphere was still connected to the ground by some kind of wide pillar. The pillar wasn't as wide as the sphere, but it wasn't small in any sense.

CRRR!

All beasts felt a cold shudder run down their body as they witnessed something incredible.

The sphere wasn't just some sphere. It was a head!

And it had just opened its eyes!

Then, this pillar below the head… could it be?

CRRRRR!

The earth exploded as the Empires were annihilated. Only the beasts that could fly managed to survive. Everything else was swallowed by the earth.

In the distance, the body below the neck appeared. It had broad shoulders, and the beasts could even see arms growing out of its shoulders. How massive was this body!?

"I comprehended my first level three Law 42,000 years ago," a majestic and deep voice echoed throughout the world. It was like this voice was ever-present as it stretched into infinity.
