Lightning Is the Only Way

The Immortal King looked with shock at Gravis.

How was he still alive!?

How did he build a house!?

There were so many questions running through the Immortal King's mind.

"Don't ask," Gravis immediately said as he looked at the Immortal King evenly.

"Wasn't about to," the Immortal King lied.

Gravis looked at him for some seconds and then looked at the emptying bowl.

"How long does the rain last, and how often does it appear?" he asked.

"It appears once a year and lasts for a week," the Immortal King answered.

"So, I just have to wait?"

"Yes."

Gravis sighed and went over to a mountain, where he simply sat down and waited.

It annoyed him to no end that he had to wait to comprehend more, but there was nothing he could do.

So, Gravis spent an entire week just waiting and thinking about in which order he would comprehend his next Laws.

The week took way too long to pass, but eventually, it did.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Slowly, the ball pit started to form again, and Gravis immediately grabbed some balls. After some seconds, there were enough balls to encompass Gravis' body. So, Gravis built a cocoon out of lightning balls around him.

Then, he went back to comprehending.

The Immortal King simply shook his head.

He had given up on trying to understand Gravis. This was not worth the effort.

Like this, another year passed until the next rain arrived. Gravis went back to the mountains again and seemingly waited.

However, inside his Life Ring, Gravis had stealthily stored a ton of these balls. They would be his backup balls for when the rain was coming. So, this time, Gravis didn't have to wait for a week. He simply created another body and kept comprehending.
