Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

Chapter 1017 Michael 2.0

Loki was still unsure what Michael was going to do. He had never been an Awakened, which was not uncommon among the Rebels, and never visited the Origin Expanse. He had heard enough about either, but his knowledge of Soultrait Symbols wasn't as extensive as Michael's. In fact, not even Fenrir's knowledge about Soultrait Symbols was as great as the knowledge Michael had acquired. Fenrir might be the source of all the knowledge Michael acquired through Extraction, but the Beast God was born a God. Fenrir had been as strong as a Beast God since birth, yet it took aeons to shapeshift his Divinity and create exactly what he wanted. Jormungandr and Hel had been more fortunate. Hel was the incarnation of Death and had thus no problem acquiring the Death Authority, while the World Serpent easily acquired a decent mastery of the Poison Law and the Power Authority.

Still, it was interesting to know that Jormungandr and Hel had sealed and forsaken their Divinities for thousands of years to enter the Origin Expanse. However, it wasn't that the two godly siblings were fleeing from the Primal to consider escaping into the Origin Expanse. No. They started looking for Fenrir in the Origin Expanse. Interestingly enough, Fenrir found them instead.

One way or another, Michael's knowledge of Soultrait Symbols was so extensive that he could easily decipher the powers of Soultrait Symbols according to its presence and the details unraveled by True Vision.

That was also why Soul Cutter, Implant, Prehistoric Vessel, Second Chance, and the Extra's Body were the perfect Soultraits for Michael. He didn't waste much time but used Insert on the Soultrait Symbols while also infusing Fenrir's Essence and curse power into the Soultrait Symbols. He also added the Essences of Jormungandr, Hel, and the Nature Heart with a trace of his purest energy into the fray, yet he didn't overdo it. There was no need to insert too much of the God Curses' Essences into the pair of Soultrait Symbols he formed for his grand plan.

[Second Body – Stage of the Split Consciousness] and [Perfect Soul Vessel] were created.

Michael was unsure how exactly he managed to create a Soultrait Symbol with such a long name since no Soultrait Symbol was longer than three words before, but that was also interesting. He was curious how different a long name would be once added to his Soul.

Well…a part of his soul.

Second Body and Perfect Soul Vessel were upgrade to 8-Star Soultraits without a second thought. Michael would have considered moving a little slower, but he was unwilling to waste any time. If it worked out, everything would be alright. If not…so be it. Michael shrugged inwardly at the thought of failure. It was okay to fail. As long as he didn't allow the failure to get through to him, he would be fine!

The Soultraits' names didn't change as he upgraded them, but something changed. As he upgraded the Soultrait Symbols, Michael lost control of them. It wasn't as simple as saying, Michael ever had control of the Soultrait Symbols, but one thing he could do with 9-Star Seer and True Vision was to analyze the Soultrait Symbols and their powers without infusing them into a suitable Soul. That was not possible as he upgraded Second Body and Perfect Soul Vessel to 8-Star. Instead of knowing for sure what was going on with the Soultrait Symbol and being able to decipher it at once, Michael could only 'feel' what was going on. It FELT correct to upgrade the two Soultrait Symbols and to leave them at 8-Star. At last, after who knows how many years had passed, the minuscule portion of his soul that had never reacted to his attempts to be used…reacted. It was the portion of his soul that came with the acceptance of his Twin Fates. As the new thread of fate wove into his Essence, Michael's soul expanded ever so slightly. The minuscule portion, which had never reacted, was the result of the insignificant expansion.

The portion of the soul connected to the new fate that had intertwined into his being when he rescued his brother was something that was never part of Michael. No. It was part of Michael, but it was never supposed to be part of this body. That was what Michael realized when he saw the Spring of Abundant Life and recalled what it had done with Danny's Living Soul.

Michael didn't hesitate and severed a portion of his Soul, cutting off the tether to his other fate once and for all. The Twin Fates were forcefully torn apart, severed with a simple slash. Michael extracted the portion of his soul, ignoring the immense pain severing it had caused, and added it to the Soul Grimoire.

Once the portion of his Soul was inside the Soul Grimoire, Michael fed it with all Soul Tears – they accounted for more than one million Soul Tears after the little disaster with the Volcano God and his domain. Strengthened, the minuscule portion was strong enough to endure the influx of millions of SoulStar Fragments.

Michael didn't wish to waste too much time, but he infused a steady stream of SoulStar Fragments rather than throwing mountains of Fragments into the smaller portion of his Soul. Thereafter, a trace of Fenrir's Divinity was added. It was merely an insignificant portion of the Wolf Divinity's trace, which he had added to the Soul, but it was enough to nearly tear it apart. Still, Michael achieved what he wanted. The trace of Fenrir's Divinity created a Soul Sphere in the soul fraction, expanded the soul, and strengthened it.

At the core of the Soul Sphere, a Divinity Seed of Extraction was formed. It was deactivated, of course, but ready to be unleashed once needed.

Second Body and Perfect Soul Vessel were added to the soul fraction, and they merged seamlessly. The Soultrait Symbols were visible in the Extraction Soul Sphere, but only for a moment. They disappeared after that without leaving any traces of existing. The Soultrait Symbols were no more, but the soul expanded while growing stronger…firmer… The soul fraction evolved and transformed into a Living Soul.

"Yes!!!" Michael exclaimed, his fists shooting into the air.

He made a victory pose and chuckled like a little child. His plan was working out. No, it was even better than he had planned because the consciousness of the Living Soul was born within Michael. It tapped into Michael's mind, where everything was shared. After all, the consciousnesses were one and the same.

THe new consciousness was just like Michael, but it had only recently been born. Differences were bound to appear, but Michael was confident the changes wouldn't affect him negatively. If anything, the older consciousness would be positively affected by the newborn mind in his head.

They were the same, though alike, and felt the exact same as well. The only difference was that they could control different bodies.

Precisely, Michael could control his body, whereas Michael 2.0 couldn't control anything. Other than the Living Soul, of course.

"That is perfect," Michael mumbled before throwing Mike – which he decided to call Michael 2.0 – into the Spring of Abundant Life.

In the meantime, Loki could only stare at him in confusion, shock, and a mix of various other emotions, including anger.

"What…the hell did you just do?!"
