Morus' mind recovered instantly as his old personality returned. Gone was his reverence towards Gravis. Now, he was able to see Gravis for what he was.

The over 700 years of being a servant appeared inside his mind. The 700 years of having no freedom felt terrifying to him. He had wasted 700 years under someone else!

Gravis had already fully prepared himself for the inevitable battle. Every single beast that had been freed from Gravis' Life Ring previously had wanted nothing but his death. Being stripped of one's own will was not something that someone could take easily.

Morus' eyes narrowed as killing intent radiated from him. Then, he looked with cold eyes at the distant Gravis.

Yet, instead of speaking or attacking, Morus remained silent for several seconds. He was only glaring coldly at Gravis.

But then, he relaxed and looked evenly at Gravis. "You have not thought this through, Gravis," Morus said coldly.

Gravis only smirked. "I have had this plan for several centuries now, Morus," Gravis said. "I know that you have a high chance of killing me, but if you didn't have this chance, I wouldn't have freed you. You should know that I require genuine tempering since you should also know me pretty well by now."

Morus harrumphed. "That is not what I have meant."

"Enlighten me," Gravis said slowly.

"Being under someone else's suppression and control for so long truly makes me hate you. Yet, I know your power. If I were to attack you out of rage, I have a possibility of death without any potential reward. What do I get out of our fight?" Morus said.

Gravis raised an eyebrow. "There is something to that, yes, but are you just willing to walk away like that?"
