Lightning Is the Only Way

A man appeared.

In front of Gravis flew a middle-aged man with silver hair. His robes were black and white, and on his back, he carried a peculiar sword. It was over a meter long and slightly curved. It was thin, and it only had one edge. The last time Gravis saw a sword like this was in the lower world when he fought someone from the Fire Guild.

The sword radiated an incredible power of cutting, even more powerful than the cutting power of Storm. For a second, Gravis was confused. What could cut even better than the Element of Storm?

However, the more Gravis felt the aura of the sword, the more he felt familiarity.

'Space?' Gravis thought with confusion. 'Space can cut with such ferocity?'

The Spirit Sense of the new arrival extended, and he noticed Gravis and Siral. His eyes immediately fell on Siral, and he ignored Gravis.

"He is not your opponent," Gravis said.

The man looked at Gravis.

WHOOOOOM!

He activated his Will-Aura, which was on the level of a Peak Immortal King. His Will-Aura was just as powerful as Gravis' Will-Aura, but there were five levels between them.

By all intents and purposes, Gravis should be unable to move right now. The difference in Will-Aura was so much that Gravis would be suppressed by 100%.

WHOOOM!

Gravis' Avatar appeared, and it shone as brightly as never before.

Gravis could still move, but his eyes narrowed. 'My Avatar is at its limit,' he thought. 'This has never happened before.'

Gravis' Avatar was shaking, and it looked like it was close to breaking. It was like it was using 100% of its full power to resist the suppression of the enemy's Will-Aura.

'Generally speaking, the power of an Immortal King is associated with level five Laws. My Law of Freedom is a level four Law, but since it is also my Avatar, it has the power of a level five Law. The enemy's Will-Aura is at the peak of the Immortal King Realm, which means that its strength should also be at the peak of a level five Law.'

'This means that if my opponent had a Will-Aura at the level of an Immortal Emperor, I would be suppressed by some degree. Sure enough, if my Avatar of Freedom could protect me against every suppressive power, no matter how powerful, there wouldn't be different levels of Freedom.'

The man looked at Gravis' Avatar with intensity. He had never seen such an Avatar, and he could not tell what kind of Law this was.

Gravis moved closer a little bit to demonstrate that he could still move, but there were still kilometers between them. The eyes of the man slightly widened in surprise. He had expected that Gravis wouldn't be able to move.
