Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis and his father spent a couple of days together, talking about random things. The important conversation was over, and from this point forward, Gravis would never speak of the Brand again. The danger was just far too great that someone could overhear him.

After some time, Gravis' mother joined them, and everything immediately became livelier with her around. She took some pot-shots at the Opposer's ego in a playful manner, but the Opposer didn't mind. One of the reasons why he loved his wife was because she talked to him as equals. No one in this world but Heaven talked to the Opposer on the same level. Even the Black Magnate still had some reservations.

Some days later, Orpheus also joined them. He had been called over by Gravis since he wanted to include Orpheus. Orpheus was his family, just like his mother and father. Gravis didn't call for Yersi since he didn't want to interrupt Yersi's alone time with Jake.

Yet, Yersi appeared of her own volition after a while with Jake in tow.

It was about time that she introduced Jake to the rest of her family.

In the beginning, Jake was incredibly nervous as he stood before three far more powerful beings. Especially the Opposer frightened him to a high degree.

Of course, with Gravis' mother being here, this awkward atmosphere didn't last long. Yet, with a seemingly innocent and normal question, the entire atmosphere changed again.

"Could I ask for your name?" Jake asked Gravis' mother.

Some awkwardness appeared in the atmosphere, surprising Gravis, Yersi, and Jake. This was a normal question. Why didn't Gravis' mother answer?

"Don't ask about the names of people at the Ancestral God Realm or higher," Orpheus said.

Jake was surprised, and Gravis also realized something very strange.

He didn't know the name of his parents. Wasn't this a bit abnormal?
