Lightning Is the Only Way

After several days of teaching, Gravis finally dismissed class after everyone started to become unruly. They were probably not used to staying in one place for so long.

Fortunately, Gravis' concentration was powerful enough to easily handle such a long teaching session. This was nothing in comparison to comprehending Laws or forging equipment.

Gravis activated his Spirit Sense and saw Arc sitting on a tree stump a couple of kilometers away.

SHING!

Gravis teleported over.

"Really? You teleport even for such a small distance?" Arc said with a smile without looking at him.

"Well, I don't have as much time as you," Gravis said.

"Yes, but when you move too fast, you miss the beauties of life," Arc said as he smiled at Gravis. "Isn't that the very reason why you are here?"

Gravis blinked a couple of times.

Arc was right.

Gravis had only chased power for the last 2,500 or so years, which had changed him subtly. Gravis thought about why he had teleported and realized that this minuscule time difference actually was negligible.

Gravis sighed. "How did you know?"

"Because you're a smart person, Gravis," Arc said. "You realize the dangers of only chasing power and know that chasing power will invalidate the very reason why you want to become powerful."

Gravis fell into thought.

Then, Arc started laughing. "I'm just messing with you. Everyone takes breaks," Arc said with mirth in his voice.

Gravis also had to laugh when he heard the genuine mirth in Arc's voice.

"No, but seriously, you need to connect to your human side between sessions," Arc said. "You don't want to end up becoming an emotionless power machine."

"Speaking of human side," Gravis said as he remembered one of his questions. "How come that the beasts in the class act more like humans?"

"That's because they are part human," Arc said like it wasn't a big deal.
