"By the way, there is one thing that I am confused about," Gravis said.
"Yes?" Joyce asked.
"You saw that I had had a Will-Aura in the Body Tempering Realm, so why did you help me? You should've known about the Heaven Sect's ways," Gravis asked.
Joyce sighed. "Well, to be honest, I never expected you to pay me back."
Gravis lifted an eyebrow. "You didn't?"
Joyce shook her head. "I was sure that the Heaven Sect would kill you. The only reason I helped you was that I felt bad for you. Such a fate seemed too tragic in my eyes. But hey, good thing it didn't come true!"
Gravis smiled. "It sure is. So, anyway, the whole resource war thing is a no-go?" he asked.
Joyce showed an uncomfortable look. "Well, not completely."
"How come? Your teacher said that you never intended to partake in the war this year," Gravis asked.
