Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis thought about his situation for quite some time until he finally rubbed his head in frustration. 'Fuck this! I need to go with the first choice. It appears absolutely impossible right now, but there surely is a way to increase my Battle-Strength even more.'

'So, a beast four levels higher than me would have speed that is impossible for me to react to, would create an attack that I can't resist against, and I can't even injure them. This means I need to upgrade all three aspects.'

'The best way to majorly increase these aspects is by understanding more level two Laws. First of all, I need to deal with the speed difference. Right now, I can increase my Will-Aura again, which would put the suppression to 30%. The problem is that I have no way to increase it right now. The only other beast in this world that has comprehended Punishment Lightning is the Grand Elder, and with me being a level five King now, he won't be able to help me.'

'Since he has overtaken the position of the leader of the Icy Pride Empire, he also won't increase his Realm for quite some time. So, increasing my Will-Aura falls flat,' Gravis thought as he scratched his chin. 'This means I need speed from somewhere else.'

Gravis glanced to the Lightning Ultimate. 'There surely must be an upgraded form of the level one Law of Lightning's Speed. Comprehending this Law would allow me to react to attacks, at least. This should be my first stop.'

'Then, I need to deal with my attack. Punishment Lightning is great and all, but it is only the base form of an attack. I need to manipulate it appropriately to make use of it as efficiently as possible. The Lightning Crescent has served me well for a long time, but it's a technique I have comprehended in the lower world. There surely must be better and more effective ways to use my Punishment Lightning.'

'Yet, maybe I don't need to completely change my technique, but upgrade it. Right now, my Lightning Crescent makes use of my Will-Aura, Spirit, and Punishment Lightning. Yet, it hasn't integrated other Laws. Additionally, I haven't comprehended any of the offensive Laws regarding lightning yet.'
