Lightning Is the Only Way

With this Law being taken care of, Gravis left the storm and appeared in the normal Law Comprehension Area again.

The Immortal King noticed that Gravis had left and looked at him. "Want to take a break?" he asked with a smirk. Staying up there for five years was probably stressful beyond belief.

"No, I'm done," Gravis said with a smirk as he summoned a small ball of lightning that exploded.

The Immortal King couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Gravis had comprehended this Law in just five years!?

Up there!?

How!?

"Well, anyway," Gravis said with a little bow, "thanks for having me. I'll be on my way. Bye!"

SHING!

And with that, Gravis vanished from the Law Comprehension Area, leaving a stunned Immortal King behind.

For the first time, the Immortal King felt envious of someone weaker than him. He had been here for hundreds of years, but this Immortal just came in here and comprehended the Law in only five years.

Was he truly so slow in comprehending Laws?

Did he have no affinity towards lightning?

How come some random Immortal was so many times better at comprehending Laws than him? What had he done to deserve this?

The world truly was unjust and unfair.

Some people were more talented than others, and the Immortal King felt frustrated. He had put in so much work to comprehend this Law, but this guy had it so easy.

It was unfair!

Meanwhile, Gravis quickly returned to his usual spot and noticed that Stella still hadn't returned.

After replacing the jade token with a new one, Gravis went to his next location.

After some minutes, Gravis arrived at his next location, and he was a bit surprised about what he saw.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

A cloud of lightning was flying in the air, striking the ground from time to time. The ground wasn't destroyed since it just absorbed the lightning strikes. The only difference to normal lightning was that this lightning moved with incredible speed.

Why was Gravis surprised?

Because it looked so very ordinary.

Gravis had seen three wondrous Law Comprehension Areas when it came to lightning. They had all looked beautiful or intimidating in their own way, but this one? This one looked so very plain and normal.

It was just a typical lightning storm with speedy lightning.

Nothing more.
