Lightning Is the Only Way

Chapter 640

Silence reigned for a couple of seconds, and Gravis lifted an eyebrow.

"It was my fault," Aris said.

"Don't overvalue your power," Cera said like she had been offended. "You might be more powerful than me right now, but that doesn't mean that I was not also a danger."

"It was because of our rapid growth," Yersi said after Cera.

Gravis looked at Yersi. "Tell me more," he said.

Yersi looked towards the raging battle with even eyes. "A little more than a century ago, all of us managed to understand Punishment Lightning together."

Gravis nodded. He had expected something like that. Gravis had been made up of Punishment Lightning himself, and he had already expected them to have a crazy affinity towards that type of lightning. It wasn't shocking to him that they managed to learn a level three Law so quickly.

"The Earthquake Ultimate saw that-"

"Wow, wait a second," Gravis interrupted Yersi. "Earthquake Ultimate? As far as I know, there are no Ultimates left in this world."

Cera snorted. "That's what he called himself after our southern region was cut off from the other regions," she said with disdain. "The Earthquake Ultimate is or was the level four Emperor of the southern region."

"That rhinoceros?" Gravis asked.

Yersi nodded. "Yes, that was the Earthquake Ultimate," she said but then had to chuckle. "It's ironic that you didn't even know his name when you killed him."

Gravis leaned back as he sat on the ground. "Calling yourself an Ultimate even though you're not is kinda ballsy but also conceited," he commented.

The three of them were a bit surprised by Gravis' choice of words, but the phrase was pretty accurate.

"When we managed to understand Punishment Lightning as Kings, we quickly became Emperors," Yersi continued. "When the Earthquake Ultimate saw that he had three new Emperors with a level three Law each, he became troubled."
