Lightning Is the Only Way

The air around Gravis' opponent shook as he gathered a ridiculous amount of Energy. Gravis looked at the process very closely to learn more about Weapon Techniques.

First, the Laws were gathered around the person. Then, they got absorbed by him. Gravis couldn't feel what was happening inside his opponent's body during that time. After that, a powerful force entered the man's spear as he readied himself for a strike.

CRACK!

The space around Gravis cracked as the enemy used Space Confinement to block teleportation and to restrict Gravis' movement. Like this, an average opponent would have no choice but to parry or block the attack. Evading would be out of the question unless the enemy also had an Avatar of Space.

Gravis could use his Law of Freedom to escape, but he wanted to actually feel the power of his opponent.

The enemy also activated his Will-Aura to suppress Gravis' movement.

The man pulled his spear back as he loaded his entire being into the attack.

"Burial Ground!" the man shouted with power as he struck forward with his entire being.

BOOOOM!

The air behind the guy seemingly exploded as he shot forward with incredible speed. Gravis hadn't expected that his opponent would be able to unleash such speed, but it was still in Gravis' ability to handle.

The man closed in on Gravis, and his strike finished just as he arrived in front of Gravis. Then, with his full power, he unloaded his strike into Gravis.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Kilometers of ground were destroyed below them as the air shook.

CRACK!
