Lightning Is The Only Way Chapter 673

Gravis was quite happy about the incident. His mother had given him the target to get 80% of the retail value, but due to the Average Trading Firm trying to steal from him, he got 90%. Advantages and disadvantages, eh?
"What am I supposed to do now, mom?" Gravis asked.
"First, you need to comprehend a very important Law to take full advantage of your business," his mother transmitted to him. "It shouldn't be very difficult for you to comprehend this Law since you have a very high affinity towards it."
"Oh? What kind of Law?" Gravis asked.
"The Lower Law of Honesty," his mother transmitted.
Gravis remembered that the highest world categorized the power of Laws differently from the middle world. A Lower Law was a level two Law.
"Honesty, huh? What's its use?" he asked.
Gravis' senses were pulled to a peculiar shop. "Can you feel the different aura that this building has? Compare it to the shop you just left."
Gravis concentrated on the aura, and sure enough, it felt different. The building gave off an aura of trust and honesty. "It exhibits a kind of aura of trust," he answered.
"That's what you want to have," his mother transmitted. "The fact that this building is giving off this aura means that the owner of this shop has comprehended the Law of Honesty and got a certificate from the Company Trade Evaluation Department, CTED for short."
"The Law of Honesty has two other related Laws, the Law of Deceit and the Law of Lies. All three Laws have the same ability, which is to make other people trust you. The only difference is how they accomplish to gain that trust."
"Someone with the Law of Deceit can give you half-truths that sound like they are the complete truth. Someone with the Law of Lies can give you lies that sound like they are the truth. When you talked to that stealing employee, have you felt that he was telling the truth?"

Gravis remembered how the employee gave a different market price to what his mother had said. Back then, Gravis felt like the employee was telling the truth. "I did," he said.
"That employee knows the Law of Lies, which made you believe that he was telling the truth," his mother answered.
"Huh, that's interesting," Gravis commented. "I presume that people with an affinity for one of these three things will find it hard to understand the other two?" he asked.
"Half-right," his mother answered. "People that know the Law of Lies have a lot of affinity for the Law of Deceit and vice-versa. Yet, people that know the Law of Honesty will find it very hard to understand either of the other two Laws."
Gravis scratched his chin. "I also presume that every Law has its uses, right? If someone wants to scam people, the Law of Deceit or Lies would probably be better than the Law of Honesty."
"Correct," his mother said. "No one would want to get a certificate for the Law of Deceit or Lies since that will only broadcast to everyone that you're a scam artist. Yet, if you have a certificate for the Law of Honesty, people are much faster to trust your claims. This Law is imperative for your business' success."
Gravis furrowed his brows. "I get that it is important but imperative?" he asked.
"For you, it is imperative," she answered again. "You have comprehended the Law of the Dead World as a new Immortal. That is exceptionally rare. If people know that you can create a World Weapon but see that you are only a new Immortal, they will immediately believe that you are a horrible scam artist. That's why you need that certificate."
"World Weapons? What's that?" Gravis asked.
"With the Law of the Dead World, you can not only fuse all kinds of materials but also use particular ore to create mighty weapons. The Middle World Core your father and I have talked about is one of these ores. When you use that as the core for your weapon, you will be able to create a powerful affinity with it. You should try creating a saber while you comprehend the Law of Honesty," his mother answered.

"What's the point of this higher affinity?" Gravis asked.
"Weapon Laws," his mother answered. "Cultivators from Battle Worlds don't cultivate the elements, but Weapon Laws, which they use to create a ton of techniques in conjunction with their other Laws."
Gravis blinked several times in surprise. Weapon Laws? There was something like that? Gravis had thought that weapons didn't have Laws since weapons didn't exist naturally. Only humans created these kinds of weapons.
'Though,' Gravis thought as he furrowed his brows and scratched his chin. 'Aren't humans part of nature too? So, wouldn't it be correct to say that weapons also naturally occur?'
Gravis ruffled his hair in exasperation. 'Great, something else I can't properly place. Saying that weapons occur naturally sounds very debatable, and I hate stuff that isn't clearly defined. Just accept it and move on,' Gravis thought.
"Thanks, mom," Gravis transmitted. "I'm going home and will concentrate on understanding the Law of Honesty."
"Have fun!" his mother transmitted.
Gravis went home and went back into his room.
As soon as he entered his room, emotions assaulted him.
He hadn't been in his room since he had returned from the lower world. For the last month, he had always stayed with his children in a separate room.
Gravis' room had a bed, a table with some chairs, and some shelves. The light of the outside reflected off the blue walls, giving the room a bright and happy atmosphere.
There was not much stuff in his room since he had thrown away most of it when he entered the Research Assistant School. Yet, he could still see some dumbbells. Gravis had always wanted to cultivate, and he had used these dumbbells to become more powerful when he was younger.
Gravis sighed. 'This is like the room of a stranger,' Gravis thought. 'It's hard to believe that I have lived here for years.'
Gravis looked at the room some more but quickly went back to doing what he came here to do. He sat down in the middle of the room and concentrated on understanding honesty.
He wondered how long that would take.
And two years later, he got his answer.
BOOOOM!
Gravis managed to comprehend the Law of Honesty.
'Only took me two years to learn another level two Law. Interesting,' Gravis thought as he scratched his chin.
Gravis felt a peculiar aura coming out from him, and when he concentrated on the city, he also saw a lot of the people in a different light. The feeling he got could be described with a gradient from light to dark. Some people felt warmer and brighter, which symbolized their affinity towards honesty, and some of them felt darker and colder.
Yet, surprisingly, a lot of these people had no aura at all. Gravis also noticed that mainly people more powerful than him didn't have an aura. This meant that he could either not see through them due to their power or that they had comprehended Laws that made it harder to discern their aura.
After looking at the city for some minutes, he looked over towards the room of his father.
"Father, can you tell me how I make one of these World Weapons?" he asked.

The Forgotten One
Hey there everbody. This will be my second upload to Roll 20. Unfortunately I wasn't able to continue my previous one due to life and what not but I'm now back and have a some what new idea I've been kicking around for years. We'll see if i head back to my other fiction due to having things calming down. And like always I'm open to constructive critisims. Any way on to the synopsis. The world as we know it is gone. Torn from everyone due to two major things. First and foremost a biologica lweapon that no one wanted to take credit for after it was released and couldn't be stopped (a zombie virus of sorts) and the way that many nations thought to stop it from spreading was to destory everything they could ofcourse that didn't include them selves. So there the world was in a mexican standoff with hundreds of countries with hundreds of nuclear weapons just dareing one another to make the first move. Once again no one knew who started it but it didn't matter once it started the world was doomed. In an attempt to save people some scientists began working on a way to cryogenically frezze people so they could surive the on coming armegedon. The problem was before they could begin testing it on humnas the nukes began launching. In a bid to save them selves a family gave their youngest son to the scientists as a test subject. He had already been infected by the virus weeks before the nukes were being threatened and still retained his humanitiy. After being betrayed by his family after telling them of his ability to stay him self and a few things the bio weapon had changed in him physically he was sedated with enough drugs to kill a whole pride of elephants and forced to take part in the experiment. The last thing he remembers was watching his world close around him (his cryo pod) and his family's face of sadness but also hope in the fact that them betraying him may give them a chance to live. This is a fan fiction in which many aspects of one of my favorite games will be quiet prevelent. It will be obvious to those who have played it but for those who may not the game i'm going to be baseing some of the things in this novel is called Prototype. And no I do not own the rights to the cover. If the creater would like for me to pull it down please messege me.

Indomitable Marvel
-This is a wish-fulfillment story that is in the MCU universe and will follow the MCU in my own way. The goal is to blend my story in and around the MCU. -It will be a while, a very long while before I get to the actual MCU storyline. -The story may seem a bit slow depending on what you're after. -Updates will be slow. -He does not start op. -Be warned I'm a below-average writer, I need to work on my details and wording, and probably everything else. Expect quality fluctuations. -((( Useful feedback is much appreciated. ))) -This will have a harem since my last story didn't have one. --Expect badly written lemon scenes. They will be marked for an easy skip for those who don't want to read it. If you can handle all that, then welcome aboard. -The Asgardian Theoric is about to get a second chance. [[[ https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Theoric_(Earth-616) ]]] -The story starts before the MCU where he will grow his abilities on his way to becoming indomitable. -1st volume: Prologue -2nd volume: Troll War - (ch.12-59)-3rd volume: Hidden Forces - (ch. 60-???)-4th volume: Olympians-5th volume: Mutants-6th volume: MCU-7th volume: Darkness???-8th volume: ??? ___________________________________To help answer some questions people might have. - No beast companions and as of right now no plans for beast companions. (But then again Hela does have Fenris...)- No kingdom-building,- The beginning of the story puts a lot of people off because I didn't go the normal route people would like, and they don't tend to like the troll arc.- He also starts a little rash and seems a little weak because his powers easily drain him, some of this is explained later though and fixed by Gaea, but many miss this and only concentrate on the fact that he isn't being and doing what they think he should.- I should also explain that he has some memories that were locked away and then deleted because of his rashness. This was simply a way to end the whole locked memory thing, the Acanti soul was a plot point to give him future memories of the MCU, beyond that it served no more purpose so I got rid of all the other useless knowledge, He was in no way nerfed as some would like to believe.- I made him a little more emotional then I would like at the beginning, it was my attempt at trying to give him a personality after being criticized for the lack thereof in my last story. - Ruthless? I don't think so, I'm going more the route of a fair Mc. He'll do more of an eye for an eye type stuff, gender does not matter to him when it comes to this.- While the harem isn't the end all be all goal, it's true that he's going around getting women.- I do have a story beyond the harem though and will not focus too heavily on the harem beyond the obvious. Mostly he just goes around sleeping with them and beyond that is anyone's guess whether they stick around or not, I do try and make it feel a little more real, but it is a harem. ___________________________________ -I have also posted this story on Royal Road and Wattpad.
