Liam and Stella looked at their teacher's disintegrating hand with shock and horror.

All rage vanished from Stella's mind as she shot to her teacher. "I'm sorry!" she shouted emotionally as she held her teacher. "I didn't mean it! I was angry!"

Stella's teacher smiled at Stella and stroked her hair. "I know," she said. "It's alright."

"Why!?" Stella shouted. "Why did you sacrifice your life for mine!?"

"Because you are more important to me than this old life of mine," she said. "My tribulation would have come in a couple thousand years anyway, and I wouldn't have been able to comprehend a level six Law until then. My life was already over. So, instead of living these last few years without reason, I decided to sacrifice this last bit of life to extend yours."

Liam only looked with shock at his teacher. His teacher would die? She had been like a mother to them!

After a while, Liam also shot to his teacher with tears in his eyes, embracing her tightly. He didn't want to lose her!

Gravis sighed as he saw the three of them embrace. Suddenly, he missed his family too. He had only been here for a couple of days, but he already started to miss his three kids and his parents.

'Sadly, my journey in the higher world has only begun,' Gravis thought.

However, Gravis also looked at Stella. For some reason, he was actually happy that Stella didn't die.

He admired Stella. She knew a ton of Laws, and she even knew the Law of Empathy. Additionally, she had warned Gravis several times instead of simply accepting the challenge and scoring an easy kill.

In her mind, Gravis had been no danger at all to her. She had no reason to warn him several times to not throw his life away. This meant that she honestly didn't want to kill him.

On top of that, she hadn't unleashed her most powerful attacks immediately. Instead, she only demonstrated her powers slowly in front of him, hoping that Gravis would accept that she was more powerful and concede. Gravis was sure that Stella would have accepted Gravis' submission and wouldn't have killed him.

From the very beginning, she didn't want to kill Gravis.

Did Gravis want to kill Stella?

He was fine with killing her for his own power, but he wasn't a big fan of it. She had proven that she was actually a nice person.

Sadly, being a nice person wasn't enough for Gravis. She had been a powerful opponent, and he wanted to temper himself. He had killed so many nice people before, so what would make this one different?

However, Gravis actually preferred this outcome over her death. Gravis had received his tempering. He had upgraded his Law of Danger and managed to learn a ton about the Major Law of the Elements. His Will-Aura had also already increased by a level.

Gravis got what he came here for, and Stella didn't die.

'No reason to remain here,' Gravis thought. 'We met, we fought, and now our paths will split again.'

Gravis turned around and checked the map in his head for the next resource point. This first fight had been a doozy, but he doubted that something like this would happen again.
