Chapter 592: Orthars Decision (2/2)
Gravis looked at Orthar as a sense of his was awakened that he hadn't used in over a hundred years.
In Gravis' eyes, Orthar's body gave off a particular feeling. Gravis knew this feeling.
This was the feeling of when someone's Karmic Luck changed!
Right now, in front of Gravis, Orthar received Karmic Luck from Heaven!
Gravis' eyes narrowed. 'What's your plan, Heaven?' Gravis thought. 'Why are you giving Orthar Karmic Luck now?'
Gravis very quickly came to a conclusion that made sense. 'This middle Heaven doesn't break the rules. This means that this Karmic Luck doesn't come from this middle Heaven but from the highest Heaven.'
'Father and I have already realized that the highest Heaven wants as many of my friends to reach the highest world as possible. We're both unsure if the highest Heaven wants to use them as hostages later or if it truly just wants to repay me.'
Gravis stood up and looked at the sky of his Life Ring. Orthar was confused about Gravis' sudden change of expression and emotions. These emotions made no sense to Orthar and seemingly came out of nowhere.
”Is this it?” Gravis asked. ”Do you want to show me that Orthar can also temper himself against humans in the highest world? You are ready to sacrifice the inherent advantages that humans have over him to further insure yourself against me?”
Gravis looked at Orthar. ”Heaven, I'm uncertain of your goal, but if your goal is to make me complacent with the status quo and no longer pursue supreme power, this won't work. If that is your goal, you won't be able to achieve it.”
Gravis continued looking at the confused Orthar. Yet, Orthar's Karmic Luck didn't reduce at all.
”That's not your goal, huh?” Gravis asked. ”Fine, then I'm fine with this. Even if you want to take more hostages against me in the future, in exchange for a future of one of my friends, I'm willing to take the risk.”
Gravis took a deep breath. ”I doubt that you would want to hurt me by deceiving me right now. That's something that the idiotic lower Heaven would have done, not you. It's just not worth it. Additionally, you also know that you wouldn't be able to hide it in front of father.”
”So, I hope that you keep to your word, highest Heaven,” Gravis said.
”Gravis, what's going on?” Orthar asked.
Gravis turned to Orthar. ”The highest Heaven has granted you Karmic Luck. I have told you of my conflict with the highest Heaven. Either it wants to repay me for what it had done to Stella, or it wants you to become powerful so that it can use your life to stop me.”
”Are you willing to follow me to my homeworld, knowing about these possibilities and dangers?” Gravis asked.
Orthar didn't even hesitate. ”Tempering is always dangerous, as is the unknown. I see no difference in danger between staying here or following you to your homeworld.”
Gravis nodded. Then, he smiled.
”Then, I'm happy to have you on board!” Gravis said. ”It seems like our paths will only split for a short time until I leave this world. Try to become as powerful as possible during that time.”
Then, Gravis smirked. ”And I have just the thing that will help you,” he said.
”Oh?” Orthar said with interest.
Whooop!
Suddenly, a small green slime appeared in front of Orthar. ”This is the CMO. By watching it, you can comprehend a ton about Life Laws. From now until the day the Light Ultimate leaves this world, you should look at it.”
”The more Laws you manage to comprehend, the better,” Gravis said.
Right now, Orthar felt like they were back in the River Tribe with Gravis as the leader. Orthar was not an emotional beast, but he couldn't help himself thinking about the past.
”I will,” Orthar said.
Gravis nodded. ”Great, I'll leave you to it.”
Then, Gravis looked at the horizon of his Life Ring again. ”Meanwhile, I will also concentrate on learning as many new Laws as possible in the next 50 years. I'll tell you when the Light Ultimate leaves the world.”
”Gravis,” Orthar said with uncertainty. ”It feels unnatural as a beast, but if I am to live among humans in the future, I should get used to it. So, let me try this.”
Gravis raised an eyebrow. ”What?”
”Gravis,” Orthar said.
”Thank you.”
