Chapter 825: Younglings (1/2)

SHING!

Gravis appeared inside Arc's clearing. It was just as peaceful as always, except…

”Who's that?” a deep voice asked.

Gravis looked around and noticed that there were about ten beasts present, all having different sizes. There were small beasts, and there were beasts over a hundred meters tall. One, in particular, was over 500 meters tall.

Of course, such sizes appeared gigantic to humans, but for beasts, this was still considered rather small.

Funnily, all other beasts sat on the back of the huge one, which was an elephant. The tall beasts sat on his tusks while the smaller ones sat on his ears. Some also sat on his head.

Gravis had to admit that all of this looked rather adorable.

Adorable?

Cultivators and humans, in general, wouldn't call something like this adorable, but Gravis had been inside a Natural World for a long time. He could tell the age of most beasts, and he saw that all of them were relatively young. They were probably all under a century old.

All the beasts looked at Gravis with a questioning look. They hadn't seen him before.

”Oh, Gravis,” Arc said with a smile. ”You came at just the right time. I am currently teaching these young fellas here, but another class is waiting for me. Would you be fine with taking over for today?”

Gravis was surprised when he heard Arc's words, but he quickly realized the truth.

Arc had probably foreseen that Gravis would come here and had prepared this class just for him.

Gravis had to sigh at Arc's foresight. Gravis hadn't talked to himself when he decided where to go. Everything had only happened inside his mind, which meant that Arc couldn't have known what Gravis had planned.

However, Arc was still able to predict that Gravis would come here.

”Eh?” one of the smaller beasts, a snake, uttered from the elephant's tusk. ”But we don't know him. How can he teach us?”

Arc only showed a friendly smile. ”Aeri, don't be rude to our guest,” he said. Then, he gestured at Gravis. ”This is Gravis, and he is the most powerful Immortal. He is more than qualified to teach you.”

”The most powerful?” Aeri asked with surprise. Then, she looked at Gravis and squinted her eyes. ”The most powerful Immortal of what?”

Arc laughed a bit. ”We don't need a quantifier. He is simply the most powerful Immortal, period.”

Gravis felt a bit awkward when Arc talked about him like that.

”Even more powerful than oldest brother?” Aeri asked.

”Aeri,” Arc answered with a smile. ”Your oldest brother is an Immortal Emperor, not an Immortal.”

”Oh, right,” Aeri said.

”Is he more powerful than Big Johnson?” another beast asked.

”Pfft!” Gravis sputtered involuntarily, eliciting several confused looks. What was so funny about Big Johnson?

'First, Long Johnson, and now Big Johnson? Why do I keep running into sizable Johnsons?' Gravis thought.

Arc rolled his eyes when he saw Gravis' reaction. ”Yes, he's more powerful than Big Johnson.”

”Wow,” every beast said. Even more powerful than Big Johnson? That had to be really powerful!

Gravis had already realized that all these beasts were at the Unity Realm, which would have been called a Lord back in the middle world.

”What am I supposed to teach them?” Gravis asked Arc.

Arc laughed a bit. ”Oh, you don't need a teaching plan. They will simply bombard you with questions. You can answer all of them but be honest about everything. As long as it doesn't involve your past or your secrets, just answer them honestly.”

Gravis felt like he had been put on the spot, but Arc simply walked away, leaving Gravis alone with the class.

Some seconds of silence passed.
