Gravis' Spirit Sense encompassed the Life Ring, showing to Stella and Liam that he was currently in there.

Stella and Liam were currently just sitting in front of each other, probably talking with voice transmissions.

"We should be safe," Gravis said. "I'm just in front of the northeastern river. Whatever happens outside shouldn't include this region."

"We'll come out in a second," Stella said. Then, she looked at Liam with a knowing look and nodded.

Liam nodded back.

After that, both of them left the Life Ring and appeared in the small underground room.

This far down, the temperature and gravity were still far more powerful than on the surface, but Gravis wasn't so deep down that they couldn't resist.

It was just a bit uncomfortable for them.

Gravis sat at one side while Liam and Stella sat on the other side, side-by-side.

For some seconds, everyone only looked at each other.

Then, Stella sighed.

Gravis' heart began racing.

"Gravis," she said slowly. "I need to know everything about you."

Liam nodded on the side.

"I know that you have saved both of us, and we are immensely grateful, but there are too many unknowns about you," Stella said. "For example, you know this powerful plant, which brings up several questions about your affiliation with the beasts."

"You also have a beast body, and we don't know where you got it from."

"I know that you trust me, but I want you to also trust Liam," Stella said as she gestured to Liam. "Liam is my closest person, and I don't want to keep secrets from him."

"If you want us to stay in contact, you need to trust my brother too," Stella finished.

Gravis closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Trusting Stella was easy, but trusting Liam?

Difficult.

Liam and Gravis weren't close, and if he told the humans Gravis' secrets, it would become very dangerous.

Maybe even people from Arc's clearing would want to target him.

After all, Gravis knew a lot about the highest world, which was the next world that every Ascender would go to.

They would want to know everything about the highest world, and they would also want to know the secrets of the highest world.

Some people might even believe that Gravis had things from the highest world with him, and that was actually the case.

Even more, they would know that Gravis could make World Weapons, which would put an even bigger target on Gravis' back.

Maybe a powerful Ascender or Ancestor of the All-Matter Sect would want to kill him.

Maybe some other Sect coveted Gravis' World Weapon to sell it.

Maybe even the beasts would become interested.

In that case, Gravis could go nowhere in this world.

Telling Liam everything would put Gravis in a lot of danger.

Sure, maybe Liam would keep everything a secret, but what if Stella accidentally died?

What then?

Would Liam still keep Gravis' secrets?

Maybe he would fault Gravis for Stella's death, and unveiling all his secrets would be the best way to take revenge.

It was risky.
