Gravis looked at his friends with a wide smile.

Nearly everyone was gathered.

The only people missing were Stella, Liam, and his three kids, but they were all waiting somewhere else.

Meadow was also missing, but she would arrive later.

However, everyone else that was still alive was now here.

Memories shot through Gravis' mind as he saw all of them.

It was like no time had passed.

"You changed, you know," Manuel said.

"I know," Gravis answered with a wide smile. "You can say that I managed to see my true goal. Power isn't my goal. Freedom and happiness are."

Skye didn't think that her little brother had changed much. After all, she had only been in contact with him when he hadn't grown truly ruthless yet.

However, Manuel and Dorian felt the biggest difference.

Back then, Gravis had been a brutal teenager that only respected power. He even threatened the Freya Clan several times with annihilation just because they said some things he didn't like. He had also played with the lives of the Earth Sect due to their disposition, and he had no qualms in annihilating the Darkness Sect, even though it had only been Byron that had acted against him.

Gravis had been Mortis back then, and Mortis was quite different from the current Gravis.

Ferris didn't really think about these things. Gravis was his friend. Nothing else mattered.

Azure, Styr, and Sary had met Gravis when he was becoming more empathetic, but they hadn't met Gravis since the defining moment that completely changed him. That moment had been when Gravis had comprehended the level four Law of Freedom.

The last change had been when Gravis finally united with Stella.

His life was no longer filled with darkness, and he had even dreamed about stopping to cultivate at one point. Obviously, Gravis had only thought about that possibility. He wouldn't go through with it. It was simply an escape from the pressure and stress of Cultivation.

"Manuel," Gravis said, "did you know that you are the biggest reason why I've changed so much?"

Manuel was a bit surprised. "Me? What did I do?" he asked.

"You told me back then, in front of the Heaven's Trial, that I might not be as cold as I thought myself to be. These words made me realize that I had a lot of repressed emotions. I worked on them ever since, and this allowed me to become who I am today."

"Without you, I might have never realized that, and I would probably have become even more ruthless and cold-hearted," Gravis said.

Manuel looked with wonder at Gravis. "Really? I don't even remember saying something like that."

"Really," Gravis said with a laugh. "It might have been an unimportant comment to you, but it has changed my life."
