Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis went to an isolated place and called Mortis and Arc.

Arc arrived relatively quickly. "What's up?" Arc asked with a smile.

"I'll reach the Star God Realm today," Gravis explained.

Then, Gravis took out a ring and threw it at Arc.

"That's a ring that allows us to communicate over long distances. Your own ring won't work anymore since I will be a Star God soon."

Arc looked at the ring with a smile and pocketed it. "Thanks. Mind if I watch you reach the Star God Realm? I'm interested in what kind of effect the Law of Sentience will have once it becomes a Star."

"Yes, I mind," Gravis said flatly.

Arc was a bit taken aback.

Then, Gravis laughed. "What's with that question? Of course you can watch!"

Arc also laughed a bit.

The two of them were still waiting for Mortis, so they talked a bit.

"What have you been doing ever since coming to the highest world?" Gravis asked.

"Different things. I looked at the world for a long time, but even that can become boring eventually. Recently, I got a new hobby," Arc said with a sly smirk.

"Oh?" Gravis uttered

"I like to join Sects and act weak," Arc explained with a smirk. "Not even the Ancestral Gods can feel my Battle-Strength, so it becomes quite easy to remain hidden. I simply act weak and act like a normal disciple."

"And then, I simply wait for some arrogant idiots to bully me or act against me. You would be surprised how many people you can anger just by being weak and existing in their vicinity."

"They act against you because you chose the wrong chair in a restaurant."

"They act against you because you don't let them skip the queue for basically anything."

"They act against you because you didn't bow before them."

"It's hilarious how quickly some people get angry," Arc said with mirth.

Gravis chuckled a bit. "How come I don't see that many of those?"
