Lightning Is the Only Way

Chapter 927

It didn't take long for Mortis to calm down. Mortis was someone that liked to remain emotionless so that he could make the optimal, unbiased decisions possible. Because of that, all the rage and hatred vanished in less than an hour.

Gravis sighed and returned to Stella and Liam.

The three of them talked for a couple of hours more. By now, Liam was no longer as taciturn in front of Gravis as before. It seemed like he was slowly warming up to him.

SHING!

Then, someone new appeared in the cave.

Exar had left long ago, making this person the fourth human in the cave.

The three of them looked over.

The person was dressed entirely in black. They even wore a black hood and black mask to hide everything about themselves. The three of them couldn't even feel the aura of that person.

They could only guess that this person was probably a woman, based on her stature.

Stella and Liam became a bit nervous. Only assassins and thieves that wanted to stay hidden dressed like this since they didn't want to be discovered.

However, the two of them had also already heard from Gravis that an Elder from Underworld would come later to set up some Formation Arrays. This was probably that Elder, but they couldn't be sure.

"You're the Elder from Underworld?" Gravis asked with a polite smile.

The Elder turned her head to Gravis and looked at him.

"To think that I would be helping a beast in setting up a Formation Array," she said coldly. "The world is truly changing."

"Exar should have informed you that I don't consider myself a beast," Gravis said. He didn't take the comment lightly, but it was important to be diplomatic right now. As long as the Elder didn't go overboard, everything was fine.

"You even dare to speak the name of our Keeper this openly. If it hadn't been him that had sent me here, I would have killed you for disrespecting him," she said.

Gravis' friendly expression slowly turned to a neutral one. He had given her two chances to remain polite, but she didn't follow. Well, then there was no reason for him to be polite either.

"My relationship with Exar doesn't concern you," Gravis said. "If he doesn't like how I address him, he can say that himself. I don't think that someone of his caliber needs someone else to speak up for him."

The two of them shared a look for a couple of seconds.
