The tirade of the Black Magnate left an impact on Gravis. The goal he was chasing would only result in emptiness? If some random person said that, Gravis wouldn't believe them, but this was one of the most powerful beings in the Cosmos. His power was only second to the Opposer and Heaven.

Yet, contrary to expectation, Gravis actually didn't feel the surrounding oppressive atmosphere inside of him. The Black Magnate's words brought an aura of gloominess and helplessness to the city, but for some reason, Gravis didn't feel like this helplessness had anything to do with him.

Gravis was even surprised at himself. He would have expected himself to get shaken and fall into an emotional crisis, but surprisingly, this didn't happen.

Instead of feeling the pressure of emptiness, Gravis felt like it actually wasn't such a big deal.

"I believe you," Gravis said after a sigh, "I truly believe that this is how it is when someone reaches the Heaven's Magnate Realm."

The young man furrowed his brows as he looked at Gravis. Due to Gravis' Spirit being the only Spirit not attuned to Energy, Gravis was the only person that the Black Magnate couldn't see through. He had the power to see through everyone since everyone was comprised of the same Laws. Yet, Gravis was different. That was also the main reason why the Black Magnate was so interested in Gravis. He was something completely new.

"That sounds like there should be a but," the Black Magnate said.

"But," Gravis said, "I don't think this is true for everyone."

"What makes you think that?" the Black Magnate said.

"You said it yourself," Gravis said. "You said that there is one being that is at your same Realm but doesn't feel this oppressiveness," Gravis said as he looked at the Black Magnate. "You are talking about my mother, right?"

The Black Magnate sighed as he looked to the side. "Yes. She is the only being at my Realm that seems to also be happy. Every other Heaven's Magnate feels identical to me. As soon as you understand everything, nothing is interesting anymore, even other beings."

"Yet, your mother is able to remain happy and cheerful, even though she has the same knowledge as us. I honestly can't understand why that is. I am in the same position as her, but my feelings are so very different."

"How can it be so different? We know the same things and have the same power, but the same thing that gives me such turmoil doesn't affect your mother," the Black Magnate said with longing. "I have tried to find the reason for millions of years, thinking that I might recover. Yet, I never found it. I just don't know how it is possible."

Gravis looked at the horizon as the city calmed down again. "I don't mean any disrespect, but I think nobody can help you with that."
