Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis returned home and told Stella and some of his other friends what he would be doing from now on. They were rather interested in his job and asked several questions.

Sadly, there wasn't much Gravis could say. The entire thing was basically recounted in just half an hour.

Gravis felt a bit weird. After all, he had a job now, and he was technically working right now, but no work actually arrived. He knew that there were only a couple of Cultivators with an intensity of four or higher, but it still felt weird for some reason.

So, Gravis decided to check up on the others while he waited for something to do.

Mortis was still within Opposer City. He was spending most of his time with his father and mother. After all, the two of them had to get used to Mortis first. Mortis also contacted Joyce several times, and Joyce also enjoyed talking to him.

They were slowly getting closer to each other.

Gravis felt excited for Mortis. Gravis didn't want to see Mortis fall into another hole so dark that he would decide to kill himself again.

Gravis' other friends were still planning on how they should create the Myriad Sect. They had the roles assigned, but they still needed to get materials, a place to stay, a plan, and many other organizational things.

Yersi was comprehending Laws while Cera was nowhere to be found.

Gravis also talked with Arc for a while via the ring Arc had given him.

Arc was enjoying himself to the fullest. He was looking at a ton of Laws and learned as much as he could about the highest world. Everything was new, and he loved every second of it.

SHING!

And that was when Gravis' first job appeared.

For a second, Gravis was surprised by the sudden appearance of an emblem in front of him, but he quickly regained his faculties.

"Work calls!"

"Have fun!" Arc answered quickly with mirth.

CRACK! SHING!

Gravis destroyed the emblem and teleported away.

Gravis hadn't even been able to see the spatial tunnel before he had already left it. The teleportation was instantaneous.

SHING!

Gravis arrived in the sky above a dark castle. The dark castle was several kilometers tall, seemingly piercing the sky.

Gravis immediately knew that this was a Sect just based on the color of the emblem he had received.

What color was it?

What kind of emblem would someone with zero Karmic Luck get on their first job?

What would wait for Gravis?

The emblem was actually ridiculous.
