Lightning Is the Only Way

In front of the Gate of Death, three beings stood.

Yet, in Arc's perception, he was alone.

The other two were invisible to him.

"Don't try anything funny," the Opposer said to the person beside him.

The other person didn't answer.

This was the highest Heaven, and it was looking at the Gate of Death with fascination and anticipation.

It had no idea if Gravis would survive or not.

The chances were overwhelmingly in favor of Gravis dying, but it couldn't be sure.

For the first time, the highest Heaven had no idea if something happened or not.

Why?

Because the area behind the Gate of Death was not inside its own Cosmos.

It couldn't look into it, and it couldn't grasp the full extent of the Force of Death.

Everything that happened inside there was beyond its ability to foresee.

If it cut off the Gate of Death right now from its Cosmos, Gravis wouldn't be able to return.

After all, as long as the Gate of Death was banished from the highest Heaven's Cosmos, even if Gravis survived, he would reappear in the Primordial Chaos.

Gravis would immediately be torn apart if that happened.

The Opposer stood beside the highest Heaven exactly to stop it from doing that.

If it did, the Opposer would destroy everything that he could.

He might even destroy the entire highest world.

He would do his best to destroy the highest Heaven's entire Cosmos.

If he did that, the highest Heaven could probably still survive, but the chances were very high that both of them wouldn't be able to kill each other.

Yet, all the gathered Energy in the last 50 billion years would vanish.

This was true for both the Opposer and the highest Heaven.

Everything would return to how it had been 50 billion years ago.

Because of that, the highest Heaven didn't dare to do anything.

After all, even if Gravis survived, the highest Heaven had an alarming number of other plans to fall back on.

These were the highest Heaven's thoughts.

What about the Opposer's thoughts?

Well, for the first time in the Opposer's life, his perception of what would happen eclipsed the highest Heaven's perception.

The Opposer was 100% certain that Gravis would return, and he was also 100% certain that the highest Heaven wouldn't do anything stupid.

There was literally no doubt in his mind.

Why?

Because he had seen the future Gravis.

However, the future Gravis hadn't appeared in the past yet.
