Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis went to his room, which was still the same. He hadn't really changed it, and all the things he had owned as a child were still there. It always felt a bit nostalgic to return to this room.

Yet, all the things also elicited a feeling of disconnect with him. It was like the child that had once played in this room wasn't him.

Too much had happened.

'Mortis is currently checking out the True Law of Divine Lightning's Explosiveness, and he should be done soon. I don't need his help to comprehend the Material Laws since it wouldn't save us any time anyway.'

Gravis sat down in his room and put the Space Ring holding the hard pure materials in front of him.

Then, he started the long process of studying the materials and seeing how they interacted when confronted with different forces.

After studying one material thoroughly, Gravis would make it interact with different Elements to see what would happen.

Gravis quickly entered his typical state of comprehending Laws, and time continued to pass.

However, it was always a one-of-a-kind experience when Gravis focused on comprehending Matter Laws. Whenever Gravis focused on a new Elemental Law, he was overwhelmed by all the different rules and workings inside the Law. It always felt like Gravis had to learn entirely new concepts.

Yet, when Gravis looked at the materials, he knew that he only had to look at all of them. Even more, Gravis could see his progress. Every single piece of matter he understood reduced the mountain of materials he still had to comprehend.

Gravis was always uncertain for the first half of comprehending a new Law. He had no idea how long he would need to comprehend the Law, but with materials, he could see how much he had to learn from the very beginning. Seeing an approaching goal made the process of getting there easier and more enjoyable.

This would be the first level seven Law that didn't rely on any level six or level five Laws, and Gravis wondered how long it would take.

The level seven Law of the Pure Elements, the Law of Temperatures, the Law of Emotions, the Law of Primordial Force, the Law of Perceived Reality, the Law of Sentience, and the Law of the Dead World were all comprised of level five and level six Laws.

Even Gravis' Form Law was made of level five Laws and the Law of Emotions.

One could argue that the Major Law of Death was a Law that didn't rely on weaker Laws, but the process of comprehending it was special.
