Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis wanted to know, but he accepted that it was better if the results were shared with him when his daughter also got to hear them. Because of that, he didn't inquire further and left the shop again.

The next couple of years, Gravis relaxed again, waiting for Yersi to finish her comprehension.

Around seven years later, Yersi came out with excitement. Finally, she would get to know which Laws she had certain affinities for.

Because of that, Gravis and Yersi immediately went back to the Smart Cultivator to get her results.

As soon as Yersi gave back her current Virtualization Array, one of the clerks pulled Gravis and Yersi over to a side room.

The clerk ordered some high-quality tea, and they all only had some small talk until the tea arrived.

The tea tasted absolutely incredible. Gravis was a fan of coffee, but he could also imagine drinking this tea from now on. Of course, this was only natural. After all, the business of Virtualization Arrays was one of the most profitable businesses in existence. Buying expensive tea didn't hurt them at all.

The clerk left, and someone else entered the room. This was a man dressed in a very professional black suit. His demeanor basically screamed successful businessman.

"Hello, my name is Jake, and I'm responsible for evaluating the tests and advising our customers," he said as he gave Yersi his hand. Yersi was the one that ordered the test, which meant that she was the customer. Because of that, she should receive her greeting first, even if there was someone more powerful standing beside her.

"Thank you, Jake," Yersi said with a smile. "I'm Yersi, and this is my father, Gravis," she said as she gestured to Gravis.

"Hi," Gravis said nonchalantly.

Jake also gave Gravis his hand with a smile. "Don't worry. We only have the best interest for your daughter in mind," he said.

"I know," Gravis said.

Jake gestured for them to sit again and sat opposite the two. After that, he quickly retrieved a jade token and checked over it again. After some seconds, he nodded. "We can definitely work with that," he said.

"Now," Jake said after putting the jade token away again. "Let me first introduce you to our evaluation rating. We generally rate someone's affinity towards a specific category of Laws from one to five."

"One means you have basically no talent and that you need to work a really long time to make any progress in that category of Laws. There is even a high chance that you will make no progress."
