Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

Michael didn't expect the people from Nest to be so talkative, but Eren told him a lot. He explained various things that didn't make any sense at first.

That was also how Michael learned more about the Nest's hierarchy, how many Curse Users were at the Nest, how strong they were, and some neat information about their training methods. He was not sure what was going on, but Eren seemed to trust him a lot. That didn't surprise Michael a lot. He felt that he could trust Eren as well. It was weird.

"Since you have two Curses, you have to be more careful than others. We don't have many records of Curse Users proficient at wielding two Curses because most Curses fight each other until only one remains. If both Curses are similarly powerful, the Curse User is highly likely to die in the aftermath of the bloody battle inside him. However, you don't seem to have that problem just yet. Your Curses are either dormant, or the stronger Curse inside you has decided that the weaker Curse can be useful in the future," Eren explained at some point.

"But the problem is that your Curses are already too attached to your Soul. Actually, that is not a problem if you retain the upper hand in your relationship with your Curses, but it can become dangerous when you start doing things your Curse loathes. Your Curses will try to force you into submission and demand that you do everything they want. That is also why most Curse Users are taught to keep their distance from their Curse."

Eren manifested a few silver scales around his arm, and his pupils changed into silver elliptical-shaped pupils, taking Michael by surprise.

"But most won't be able to use Curse Manifestation properly if they maintain a safe distance to their Curse. It's still possible, but Curse Manifestation will be a lot harder. That, in my opinion, diminishes the true potential of a Curse. It's not a bad thing, per se. The issue is that Curses are not used properly."

Michael nodded his head slowly.

"That means your Curse is very attached to your soul, right? You can easily use Curse Manifestation to transform into a Dragonoid if that's what you call it," He pointed out.

Eren nodded, "That's about it. My situation is still slightly different from yours since I don't have multiple Curses, but my Curse is quite powerful. I can give you some tips in the next few months."

Michael's ears perked up.

"In the next few months?"

"Right, you didn't know about that yet," Eren snapped with a finger and smiled lightly, "We will create a bridge to this galaxy soon. If the Supreme Human Alliance decides to attack the Tritan Alliance and kidnap the Descendants - or whatever you called them – we also want to be there to hit them where it hurts the most."

During Michael and Eren's chat, Evalynn regained her composure. She cleared her throat and added, "The Nest also decided to create bridges to the galaxies where the Cursed Bloodlines originate. Of course, the Fenrir Bloodline is not from a backwater galaxy like this, but it already gave birth to several Cursed Children. It was about time to install the bridge…especially after I lied to them about your existence."

Michael listened to his mother, but he didn't pay much attention to her. He felt like punishing her by treating her invisible for some time. At least until he knew how to behave around her.

Daniel said that he was childish, but Michael didn't care. Furthermore, Danny wasn't justified in calling him childish. He could use Whispering Energy to talk to his mother, yet he didn't say anything to her. One sentence had been enough for him, even though he had been waiting for her for months.

Who was childish here?

At least Michael wasn't childish alone. That was already a victory for him.

"I also doubt that you would be willing to return to the Nest with us when you cannot ensure a way to travel back to the people you hold dear. I don't know much about you, but your mother told and displayed me enough of your achievements and actions to tell that you wouldn't leave the Tritan Alliance to face the Supreme Human Alliance on their own," Eren contributed to Evalynn's explanation.

Michael didn't expect his mother to tell Eren a lot about him, but the Geas might have forced that upon Evalynn. In the first place, Michael wasn't sure what to think about the Geas. It would be removed once a Curse User ascended to a Divine Lifeform. From that point onward, a Curse User was considered strong enough to protect the Nest's secrets without external 'help'.

It was a little weird, but Michael figured that the Nest was very secretive and that they didn't trust others very much. Everyone would have to earn their trust over time. That wasn't despicable. It was just that they made sure the Supreme Human Alliance wouldn't be able to find and hunt them down.

"You won't have to come with us back to the Nest either. Since you can control your Curses for now, you'll be fine for now. I can only offer you to come with us because you will suffer if you don't rely on someone else, especially if your Curses continue to get more attached to your soul. They will grow stronger and tumult at some point. You will need support by then, at the latest," Eren advised before he added,

"The Supreme Human Alliance won't be too interested in the Tritan Alliance for a while. They might be interested in the Descendants, but you will be their priority. Bloodhound might be out of order for a while, but they will come to get you once he is back."

Michael was in trouble and not sure what to do now. The Supreme Human Alliance was troublesome, and the Nest was a huge opportunity. But being so far away from his friends…

and Alice—was something he didn't want to happen.

"You don't have to leave right away, either way. Your Curses will be content for a while now after you ate your brother's Curse, but you should decide once the bridge between the galaxies has been completed. Your Curses will likely cause some vital trouble now that they've been feasting on a Curse. Keeping them satiated will be an issue in such a small galaxy. Just remember that when you make your decision. By the time the bridge has been established, we will have left, and I hope you will come with us to the Nest."

Michael sighed inwardly. He didn't have to make a decision right away, but his brain was troubled nonetheless. The World Serpent appeared again in his mind as if trying to soothe it.

[He is right, yet not really. That golden bastard has accepted you a little bit. I doubt he will cause any trouble as long as you grow stronger. You are the perfect vessel. He wouldn't harm you needlessly. Still, the Nest will help you grow stronger, and staying here will risk your friends, family, and Alice. Your own life as well. Danny will have it much easier in the Nest as well. They can help create a suitable vessel for his Living Soul. Their assets are on a completely different scale as well. You will grow stronger much faster, which will help you support your companions and family.]
