Chapter 1078 - 1078 – Gravis Leaves, Stella Joins (1/2)

Power Walker had no idea what had happened between Silent Walker and Gravis.

However, just an hour after Silent Walker went silent, he told Power Walker that he and Gravis had come to an agreement.

Silent Walker used his ”Law of Honesty” to tell Power Walker that their enmity had been solved.

They didn't need to keep Gravis here anymore.

”It's good that you know your place,” Power Walker harrumphed. ”This time, you managed to survive thanks to the kindness of my junior brother. Don't anger him again, or you will die.”

”I won't,” Gravis said with a smile. ”We came to an agreement, after all.”

”You can escort him back to Opposer City,” Silent Walker said. ”We don't need the full five years.”

Power Walker threw some more reprimands at Gravis, but then he escorted him back to Opposer City.

An hour later, Gravis was back in Opposer City. Power Walker handed Gravis over to the guards, and Gravis gave his emblem back.

Now, Power Walker was no longer allowed to take Gravis away while in Opposer City.

The guards had made a ton of money off Power Walker.

Power Walker left without a word and went back to his Sect.

Meanwhile, Gravis returned to his apartment.

”Honey, I'm home,” he sing-songed.

Stella giggled as she saw that Gravis had returned after only a couple of hours. That was far faster than she had thought.

”So, how did it go?” Stella asked as she put her arms around Gravis, happy to see him back.

”I earned a ton of money,” Gravis said with a smirk.

Stella looked with quite some surprise at Gravis.

Gravis earned money?

But hadn't he been the one that had been taken away?

How did he suddenly earn money?

Gravis showed the 200,000 God Stones to Stella and informed her of what had happened.

In the beginning, Stella hated Power Walker, but the more Gravis told her about Silent Walker and Power Walker, the more she felt pity for Power Walker.

This poor guy was being poisoned by his own disciple.

That was truly a tragic fate.

”And you will let him get away with all of this?” Stella asked with an angry frown.

”Yep,” Gravis answered with a laugh. ”We made an agreement. I won't go against him or his Sect anymore.”

Stella grimaced.

She really, really hated people like Silent Walker.

”I think he's gotten off too lightly,” Stella commented. ”If this continues, he will become a Star God, and his master will never gain his freedom. This sucks!”

”Then, why don't you do anything about it?” Gravis asked with a smile.

Stella halted for a second.

Then, she fell into thought as she scratched her chin.

”Could you tell me more about the Sect?” she asked with shining eyes.

Gravis told Stella everything he knew about the Sect, and Stella's eyes became more and more interested.

”Isn't this too convenient?” Stella asked.

”It's a bit funny, yes, but it isn't because of coincidence or luck. Someone with such a personality is more likely to commit crimes,” Gravis answered.

However, Gravis scratched his chin.

”Although, I'm not quite sure anymore, now that I think about it. I basically made an Ancestral God my enemy. In a sense, this was bad luck for me again. I simply managed to turn it around thanks to my Law of Sentience. If I hadn't had that, I would have probably needed to pay the 350,000 God Stones. After all, an Ancestral God is really dangerous.”

”He could have sent his puppet to kill me. Sure, his puppet would die, but he would get away scot-free. I mean, it would feel cool to see him get killed, but I don't want to exchange my life for his.”

Stella also thought about the topic for a bit, but she was quickly distracted by something that was much more interesting.

”Anyway, I will go now. I need to plan some things,” Stella said.

”Sure,” Gravis said with a smile. ”But I think you should get into contact with that other disciple. He should be in Opposer City right now. He's pretty powerful, and he is a very honest beast. I think he could become quite an asset to the Myriad Sect.”
