Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

Selena's Curse confirmed that Michael Fang's Curses were far from ordinary. She knew everything about the young man even before he arrived at the Nest. Of course, she wouldn't allow a potential threat into their headquarters. He was thoroughly investigated, including his actions outside and inside the Origin Expanse.

Michael's whole life had been reported to Selena, yet many factors were still hard to comprehend. The Living Image of the massive serpent wasn't in the reports until she reached the last quarter. But while the Living Image attracted her interest, Fenrir's bloodline was more important to Selena.

There were multiple reasons why the Fenrir bloodline left the Nest a few centuries ago. Most reasons didn't matter anymore, but one particular reason affected sNest members even now.

The Fenrirs devoured a Cursed family. They devoured the root of another Curse.

The aftermath of the Fenrirs actions was simple, yet destructive. A Curse family ceased to exist, and the Fenrir bloodline evolved. It changed forever. The White Tiger bloodline would still be with the Nest if not for that horrifying event. Instead, their Curses showed signs of resurfacing in the offspring of the Fenrir bloodline.

The Fenrir bloodline wasn't blessed with many Curses. However, after devouring the White Tiger Bloodline, even those who didn't awaken a Curse of their bloodline would awaken a feline Curse.

The possibility of awakening a canine or feline Curse was the reason Selena wasn't too surprised to hear that Michael had two Curses. However, what surprised her was that his second Curse was a serpent. It didn't fit the Fenrir and White Tiger bloodlines.

At first, Selena was certain that the Fenrir bloodline devoured another, but that wasn't the case. It was just that Michael was different. A portion of his life inside the Origin Expanse was foggy. Not even the Nest's highly advanced equipment could pry into sevents that changed Michael's life forever.

How could Selena not be excited and worried at the stime?

She emerged before the entrance of the Ancient Isolation Chamber, her crimson eyes glimmering brightly. Evee retched, but Selena didn't mind the young girl too much. She put her down and stepped closer to the gate. Her fingers caressed gently across the gate's surface. She pushed the gate lightly, and it swung open.

The Ancient Isolation Chamber's insides unfolded before Selena, Evee, and Eren, who arrived at last.

Evee gagged again, this tfrom the horrendous reeking waft that brushed past the three Curse Users.

"What the–..." She gagged again, "Did he break the filter array, or what?! Are you guys sure that the SuprHuman Alliance didn't throw him at the Nest to kill us with his impurities?? How is it possible to release that many impurities in the High Ascension? Is he the reincarnation of a trashcan or what?!"

Selena and Eren shrouded their bodies in an energy membrane to ensure the horrendous smell wouldn't reach them. Their eyes lingered on the clump of impurities. It was twice the size of a head. An ordinary ascension wouldn't flush that many impurities out of the body. But it made sense. Eren had given his Origin Sap to Michael. It would have been a shif Michael's ascension was ordinary.

He would have wasted his precious Origin Sap for an ordinary ascension.

Fortunately, Michael's ascension was anything but ordinary. Several layers of skin, mixed with even more impurities, floated on the water surface and clung to the edge of the pool. It was Michael's skin, hair, and a lot more blood than they'd expected.

The pool was nothing like it used to look. The water glowed dimly golden, but Michael's blood was mixed into it, transforming the pool into a darkish golden mixture. It looked nothing like it was supposed to look.

But while the pool attracted sof their attention, the being emerging from the pool pulled everyone's attention to him.

The being didn't look like Michael anymore. Michael had changed. His presence was incomparably denser and wilder. As his figure ascended, his massive tail, covered in thick, black scales, smashed against the edge of the pool, creating a thunderous shockwave. Evee flinched, her eyes widening in terror when the shockwave reached her.

The shockwave was infused with curse power, which threatened to enter Evee by force. She could barely restrain the invading curse power and inched closer to her father and Selena. She upped her guard but flinched once more when Michael's wild eyes moved toward them.

His god-like sculptured physique was covered in scale-like marks. He didn't manifest a natural armor like Eren just yet, but the marks were the first signs. Contrary to everyone's expectations, Michael didn't reveal any Cursed Seals. Even the Serpent Seals weren't visible at this moment. However, that didn't mean his Seals weren't active.

His eyes, overflowing with vigor, canine-like, and glowing vibrant golden, stared at the Ancient Isolation Chamber's entrance. He eyes the witnesses but doesn't consider them fellow Curse Users. If anything, they looked nothing more like prey. That was what Evee felt, who shuddered again. She trembled involuntarily as Michael's eyes preyed upon her.

Michael tilted his head lightly, his drenched hair clinging to his body. He raised one hand, revealing razor-sharp weapons of death. Michael's hands had transformed into claws, a blend between a serpent's massive fangs and a wolf's claws. The claws were slightly curved, its edges sharp enough to cut through anything obstructing Michael's path.

Dazzling threads shot out of his claws. Selena and Eren were ready to make a move, but that wasn't necessary. The golden threads smashed unrestricted into the pool, devouring the last remains of Origin Sap.

The bits of Origin Sap that remained after his High Ascension were consumed greedily, further empowering Michael.

"He digested the Origin Sap entirely," Eren murmured, his eyes drawn to the pool. Everything inside was impurities, shredded skin, and Michael's blood.

"Not only that," Selena said, the corner of her lips twitching, "He gained access to two Major Seals during his High Ascension, and he hasn't lost control of his body yet."

Eren nodded slowly, only for Selena to add.

"Do you know what that means?" Selena asked Eren, who couldn't focus too much on the Leader's words. His attention remained on Michael. He was prepared to face a barrage of attacks at any moment. However, nothing like that happened.

"He manifested dozens of Seals for each of his Curse, enough Seals to form the first Major Seals for each. And, most importantly, he hasn't lost his cool yet. He is still in full control of his body."

"It doesn't look like he is in control of anything," Evee whispered, but Selena shook her head, an excited smile blossoming.

"Usually, Cursed Children cannot control their Curses right after their ascension. They attack whoever they see after their ascension. Their Curse makes them."

"That didn't happen to me, though," Evee recalled nothing like that.

Selena raised an eyebrow and glanced at Eren. Her expression revealed more than a thousand words.

"I attacked you?" Evee asked her father, only for Eren to remain silent. He was dead serious, his focus lingering on Michael Fang as he descended.

Michael landed smoothly on the edge of the pool, his attention still locked onto the three Curse Users.

An explosion of curse power and origin energy burst out of him as he sighed deeply.

His stomach growled.

"Did you bring something to eat?"
