Lightning Is the Only Way

CRACK!

Suddenly, something inside Stella's mind broke. Boundless comprehension filled her mind as she realized something.

'Teacher?' she thought in shock as her life was about to end.

'I would have died?'

Gravis' saber was still swinging at her head.

BRRRRRRRRRR!

Suddenly, an apocalyptic storm of fire exploded out of Stella's body. Gravis' entire body started burning violently as he felt like he was touching the sun itself.

The knockback from the firestorm was so powerful that Gravis couldn't move his saber forward anymore. His entire body was violently pushed back with an unreal amount of heat as he barely clung to Stella's body. If this heat had been in the form of an attack, Gravis would have long been incinerated. The only reason why Gravis was still alive was that Stella had to release this fire as an aura.

Gravis barely held on, but he felt his body starting to burn into nothingness.

'Level five Law!?' Gravis thought in shock. 'This is the Law of Inferno, but it can unleash the power of a level five Law!?'

'Does this mean that she knows the Major Law of the Elements and has it as her Avatar? Why? Why hasn't she unleashed this Law beforehand!?' Gravis thought in terror.

The only way to increase the power of the Law of Inferno to the power of a level five Law was with the Major Law of the Elements and having it as an Avatar. This was the same power that Heaven had shown.

Gravis felt himself being burned to a crisp.

'It's now or never!' Gravis thought.

PSH! PSH! PSH!

Gravis' three arms that grabbed Stella transformed into beast arms, and his claws dug into Stella's skin. If he couldn't kill her with his saber, he had to kill her another way!

An entire second passed as Gravis' body was starting to vanish slowly. His Law of Energy Healing was regenerating with as much power as it could muster, violently burning Gravis' Energy storage.
