Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis didn't think for long about the fact that he managed to comprehend a useless Law. He had more important things to worry about.

'Alright, with the Composition Law of the Body, my offense has gotten quite the boost. As long as my opponent doesn't also know this Law, I have a way to actually injure and maybe kill a beast four levels higher. That leaves defense, speed, and a little bit of additional offense for beasts that actually know that Law,' he thought.

Gravis looked at the Water Ultimates. 'My next stop will be the Soft Complex and Medium Complex Composition Laws. I need wood, water, earth, and air for that. Let's start with water.'

Gravis walked over to the two Water Ultimates. With his Spirit, he could keep track of both displays and see them as one, making things easier. Most of the displays were about the different offensive, defensive, and healing elements of water, but some also showed variety.

The level three Law of the land beasts' Water Ultimate wasn't truly the equivalent of the higher form of water, but a related offensive Law. Water had an intrinsic connection with temperature, and beasts with a water affinity had it easier to comprehend these Laws.

One could say that the Temperature Laws were not truly part of water but related. After all, fire also had quite a connection with the Temperature Laws. One could call them a neutral set of Laws. It was just easier for beasts with these affinities to gain insights into them.

Yet, the Temperature Laws were not something Gravis was interested in right now. He was more interested in the different kinds of materials that he could use. There were also liquid kinds of metal that would remain liquid until they were exposed to truly cold temperatures. Since these materials would remain liquid under normal circumstances, they would count as a mix of Medium and Soft Complex Materials.

The two Water Ultimates ignored Gravis and let him do whatever he wanted. Even when Gravis took some parts of their special kinds of liquids for himself, they didn't care. As long as it didn't affect their displays, it wouldn't matter.
