Chapter 949 Gift and Tears
He was more than ready to kick the Supreme Human Alliance in the butt, but that didn't mean Michael could do that easily. In his current position, Michael would suffer much more if he joined the Nest in the fight against the Supreme Human Alliance. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"You can kick their arses, but I won't join you yet," Michael shook his head with a sad smile.
Selena and Eren were a little surprised, but his sad gaze directed toward Alice was enough. Michael had just lost Lincoln, and he had no idea how troublesome rescuing Alice was going to be. The Blood Incursion had much more time feasting on Alice, which suggested problems. Removing the Blood Incursion's influence from Alice was going to be a lot more difficult than it had been with Kaleb and Zeke. Even Eren and the Nest Leader were fairly certain of that, let alone Michael, who was the first to remove Blood Incursion's influence on one of its countless victims.
Kaleb and Zeke had already been complicated to tend to. Rescuing Alice would be much more difficult. Timely actions, time, and effort were required to rescue her.
Still, Michael joined the fight against the Supreme Human Alliance in another way. He retrieved a few dozen Soultrait Symbols from his storage alongside enough SoulStar Fragments to upgrade all to 4-Star and more than half to 5-Star.

"I don't know what combination of Soultrait Symbols and star ratings will help you and the others increase your power level most efficiently. If you need more, you can always hit me up but don't expect too much. Alice will probably require many more resources than her brother and Zeke. I won't promise anyone to present anything. Just survive and call me up when you're out to fight. I might join you later point…once I'm done here."
Michael wasn't confident about solving all the issues with Alice and the Blood Incursion, but he wanted to sound confident. He prepared everything, bent down, and established a Link of Loyalty with his lover. Alice Zenovia might have been a future Queen of a kingdom in the Untamed Jungle, but the Supreme Human Alliance destroyed everything. Therefore, she might as well become his queen. That wasn't too bad either…right?
"Do you need anything else?" Michael asked the Nest Leader while retrieving a Platinum Teleportation Token for him to use in Alice's stead.
Even though Michael would be very busy in the next few weeks, maybe even months, he wanted to help the Nest. Michael didn't want Selena or the other Curse Users to die. They were strong, but the Supreme Human Alliance was at a disgustingly high numerical advantage. They had techniques like the Primordial Bloodline Arts and the Blood Incursion, which caused much more trouble than expected. The Supreme Human Alliance was an annoying enemy, but the Nest Leader smiled at him instead of plaquing him with worry. "We will be fine. Take care of your girlfriend, make sure she will be fine in your territory, and come back to us to fight the Nest once you're ready. I'm unsure how long you will take, but don't pressure yourself. The Supreme Human Alliance has many enemies. You are not the only one who can harm them!"
Michael smiled. More than once, he had considered himself the key to the Supreme Human Alliance's downfall. Maybe it was pride or his uncontrollable arrogance—possibly even his God Curses' influence on his persona—but Michael considered him incredibly important at times. Once, he even considered him the origin of the new era. That sensation quickly dispersed but had filled his mind for a few hours before.
Not that he was proud of it. If anything, Michael was shocked to discover how much his personality had changed since he manifested a War Rune. The manifestation of his War Rune changed…everything.
Michael shook his head and cursed softly. His persona confused him, but he was still himself. The changes confused him, but Michael felt like he was more than he used to be. It was like he had only been a fraction of his true self before. He accepted the changes within him on a whim and studied the Curse Users. They were clearly surprised about his generosity and expected him to have an ulterior move. However, Michael didn't do anything like that. He waited for Selena to distribute the Soultrait Symbols and integrate the SoulStar Fragments into them.
A few minutes later, all Curse Users in the Nest Leaders office were happy to add one or multiple Soultraits to their arsenal. Michael didn't really care who used the Soultrait Symbols as long as they were compatible with their Curse or Soultrait Symbol. In the best-case scenario, their new Soultrait would be suitable with both Curse and old Soultrait. Michael laughed, watching Eren, Selena, and the other higher-ups of the Nest as they experimented with their new Soultrait Symbols. Each of them was given, at least, two new Soultrait Symbols with the Nest Leader giving herself four 5-Star Soultraits. That was…excessive, to put it lightly, but Michael understood her point. The Nest Leader had been at the limit of her power at the 9th Tier for…thousands of years. At least, that was what Jormungandr and the other God Curses had guessed. From how Selena inspected her new powers, that had to be the case. He saw tears welling up in her eyes alongside flickers of unbreakable willpower. 'It does make sense. In her situation, I would have also given myself and the other Divine Lifeforms most Soultrait Symbols.'
All Nest Elders were Divine Lifeforms and well-versed in combat. They were the strongest Curse Users and thus the best choice for distributing Soultrait Symbols. It might take the Elders a while to get used to their new Soultrait Symbols, but if they fused compatible Soultraits into their Essence, it wouldn't take longer than a week or two to reach high mastery and double their combat prowess.
Within a few weeks, their combat prowess would skyrocket even further. As long as they combined their powers, Michael was certain the Elders would quadruple their current power.
The Nest Leader would grow even stronger than that. She was a mighty Lord with a territory larger than Michael's, had a powerful Curse that was either on par with a Beast God Curse or only slightly beneath a Beast God, and had two powerful Soultraits to use as her main attributes. Supplementing her main Soultraits, 8-Star Soultraits, with the power of four 5-Star Soultraits – overflowing with Soul Power – was bound to push her to another level.
"It looks like you and the others will be fine. The Supreme Human Alliance knows how strong you guys have been, but they have no clue how much stronger you will be all of a sudden. Take advantage of that, and the Nest should have no problem overwhelming the Supreme Human Alliance. A few heavy hits, and they will crumble," Michael smiled at the Nest Leader, who responded with an even brighter smile.
He trusted the Nest Leader and the other Curse Uses. Even Fera was given some of his trust because she hated the Supreme Human Alliance as much as he did. Maybe even more. Still, Fera was an annoying bitch.
"Fight well and survive," Michael prayed for their survival and left.
Meanwhile, the Nest got started for a Titan War.
