Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis and Stella talked for a bit, but Stella quickly left to introduce everyone to their new member, much to Gravis' dismay.

However, Gravis had to work anyway.

If he got called in to work during their special time, it would be frustrating and awkward. That had already happened more than once.

Stella introduced everyone to Broad Walker and informed them about what role he would be playing. Gravis had already discussed most of the things with Manuel since he was the Sect Master, but not with the other ones.

The other ones were rather surprised when they heard that they would get a new, powerful member, but they became even more surprised when they heard that their new member would soon become the most powerful person in the Myriad Sect.

A lot of them were skeptical and nervous about this new development. Someone they didn't know would become the most powerful member of their Sect? This didn't sound good.

However, Stella and Manuel explained to everyone how the contract between Gravis and Broad Walker worked, which alleviated their worries.

Broad Walker had to follow the orders, and if he refused a reasonable order from the Sect Master, the City Guards would visit their future Sect and would force Broad Walker to abide by the contract.

Broad Walker had essentially signed over a huge part of his freedom, but he knew that already.

He only hoped that his new disciple brothers and sisters wouldn't treat him like his previous Sect treated him.

After talking for a while, Broad Walker wanted to compare himself to the others in power. He wanted to know how he would rank among the Sect without Gravis' help.

In the end, Broad Walker managed to beat Skye but lost to Liam and Azure. With that, the triple third-place ranking of the tournament was destroyed.

Now, Liam and Azure had two wins, one loss each.

Broad Walker and Skye had one win and two losses each.

This made Liam and Azure the two third places and Broad Walker and Skye the two fourth places of the Sect.

If one ignored the places and only counted the individuals, this meant that Broad Walker and Skye had four beings in their Sect that were stronger than them right now, at least as far as they knew.

Dorian's powers lay somewhere else, and Manuel and Ferris didn't unveil their true powers.

After fighting with everyone, Broad Walker got to know everyone better, and all his hidden regrets vanished.

These people were honest and friendly.

This was already far better than his old Sect!

In actuality, Broad Walker felt like he joined a gathering of young, motivated, talented, powerful people that were just starting their ascent to power.

After a week of getting to know everyone, Broad Walker went to Gravis.

However, they weren't alone.

Everyone else from the Sect wanted to watch too.

In the end, everyone gathered outside Opposer City.

When Gravis arrived at this location, he got distracted.

He looked at the gigantic wall and at the grass on the ground as memories flooded his mind.

He had been here once before.

'Grassis, huh?' Gravis thought with a smile.

Gravis remembered how he had nearly died here after some beasts started fighting many kilometers away.
