For a while, Gravis and Mortis remained silent.

Now that they knew the power of the Law of Sentience, they started to question everything that had happened to them in this world.

The highest Heaven knew the power of the Law of Sentience.

The Opposer knew the power of the Law of Sentience.

Arc knew the power of the Law of Sentience.

This meant that they knew exactly how a fight between Arc and Gravis would look like.

So, why did they all act the way they did?

It made no sense.

Gravis looked at Mortis.

"I think things are not how they have been told to us," he said.

Mortis nodded solemnly.

"I refuse to believe that none of the three beings involved in this could overlook something like that," Mortis said. "Something smells fishy."

Gravis also nodded. "It's too weird. A lot of the things father told me don't seem to add up."

Mortis looked through the roof of the cave with cold eyes, directly at the sky.

"Do you think he lied to us?" he asked.

Gravis also looked at the roof of the cave.

Silence.

"I'm not sure."

Mortis nodded.

"There's not enough information to make a clear judgment," he said.

Gravis looked at Mortis.

"Then let's get enough information."

SHING! SHING!

Then, the both of them teleported away.

In just a couple seconds, the two of them reached Arc's clearing.

They didn't need to use Arc's emblem to come here anymore.

They could go wherever they wanted.

SHING! SHING!

Gravis and Mortis appeared a couple meters away from Arc, who was bathing his feet in his lake with a smile.

Silence.

"Don't you have some questions?" Arc asked with a smile as he turned to them.

Gravis' brows furrowed.

"Why have you helped me in comprehending the Law of Sentience?" Gravis asked.

Arc laughed a bit.
