Gravis and Orpheus talked for several years after their awkward reunion.

Orpheus praised Gravis' Battle-Strength especially, telling him that when Gravis had pulled that one stunt, even Orpheus had felt a feeling of mortal danger.

"Haha, I still remember when I first met you," Orpheus said with a bright smile while sipping some coffee. "You were only a Body Tempering Cultivator. In fact, you couldn't even be truly called a Cultivator."

"Just that one teacher you had who had been in the Unity Realm had already been worlds above you. And now, look at you! You're powerful enough to even make me feel threatened. It's almost unbelievable that you achieved all of that in only a bit more than a million years."

Gravis only smiled. "I still remember when I saw you back then. I had only heard about the first four Realms, and the Unity Realm truly felt like something that I would never reach in my life."

"And then, I met you, and you were on a level of power I couldn't even comprehend. I had no idea how powerful you actually were. I knew that you were powerful, but I didn't know how powerful."

That's when Gravis started laughing. "I still remember when I couldn't control my Will-Aura, and I used it on that one teacher. What was his name? Forneus, I think? Of course, he also suppressed me, but I wonder how he must have felt when you suddenly showed up."

"I wonder how it feels like to be reprimanded by a Peak Star God while only being a Unity Realm Cultivator," Gravis said with a smile.

Orpheus only smiled bitterly. "I still remember Forneus, which is surprising since he was only a Unity Realm Cultivator. He was a subordinate of my subordinate of my subordinate. Yet, whenever he interacted with me, he never really showed any fear. He only showed boredom and annoyance. That's quite admirable for someone of his level."

Gravis nodded. He still remembered that his teacher back then had even given Orpheus some attitude, which was shocking beyond belief considering the difference in their power.

"By the way, what did you do all day in your job?" Gravis asked.

"Mainly just managing the overall development of the different departments," Orpheus explained. "My subordinates were the ones that trained all the Researchers. I only looked at the different Cultivators in training from time to time to evaluate their growth."

"After that, my subordinates give me all the reports, and I have to find an effective way to improve the results without going over budget. I also had to evaluate all the different techniques the Researchers brought back and decide if they were marketable or not," Orpheus explained.

"Speaking of," Gravis interjected. "How does the Research Institute even make their money? I know that they sell techniques, but I don't see how that's viable. After all, basically everything has to do with Laws at the Unity Realm or higher."

Orpheus only leaned back. "It's not only about the techniques. It's also about ways of smithing, alchemy, Sect management, disciple training, Law combinations, and Form Laws."
