The Racial Symbol of a race was equivalent to an access permit – to their Racial Achievement Shop. Mankind’s Racial Symbol was broken into several pieces, which were put together whenever High Society members gathered to look through the Racial Achievement Shop to decide how their race should proceed.
Several pieces were considered lost after the civil war, but they managed to procure all of mankind’s Racial Symbol pieces to combine them into one piece. That was only possible because the Racial Symbol couldn’t be brought to the Origin Expanse if broken into several pieces.
Michael wouldn’t have an issue with that anymore. He was given the Racial Symbols of the three races belonging to the Tritan Alliance.
“How the hell did you manage to convince everyone to give you their Racial Symbols? You could destroy their progress and take everything from them. Do they even realize what they’re doing?!?”
The Nest Leader was a lot more agitated than expected.
‘Is she angered by her past experiences? Maybe her people were betrayed because of a similar situation?’
Michael shrugged. He could ask her in the future, maybe when she was more like her usual self.
“I think you understand why they decided to give me the Racial Symbols.” He said in a serious tone.
It was silent for a while before Selena groaned aloud, “Yes. I know. I do understand their reasoning. You gave them your Soultraits free of charge to help them prevent an all-out war and helped them suppress a Peak Tier-6 Hyuman with my blood. That might not be their main reason to give you their Racial Symbols, but it’s an important part. You, a Tier-4 Awakened, managed to increase the combat prowess of their strongest members drastically, and they know that you can do it again…and that you will do it again as long as you’re motivated enough to protect the Tritan Alliance.”
“The Racial Achievement Points are enough reason to keep you motivated – though I doubt you need such a reason in the first place. You are an oddball, and I’m fairly sure you would have helped them without the Racial Symbols either way. However, now you have even more reason to help.”
“Giving you their Racial Symbols means they trust you, but it also means that you will have to help them survive the next few years and even more so once the torn firmament returns. You will have to invest heavily into the Tritan Alliance using your resources in order to receive something in return – more Racial Achievement Points to use. Once the Tritan Alliance expands and survives against the Supreme Human Alliance, you will have full control of their Racial Achievement Points, which you ‘could’ use on yourself to advance faster than anyone.”
Selena cursed under her breath but continued, “The Tritan Alliance hopes you give them everything they need to prosper and is willing to risk everything to survive against the Supreme Human Alliance. You are their hope and savior.”
Michael didn’t quite agree with some of the Nest Leader’s points, but he didn’t say that. It was a matter of fact that the Tritan Alliance invested heavily in Michael. They gave him their Racial Symbols to gain even more in return and create a reason for him to stay with the Tritan Alliance. However, it was also a matter of fact that Michael was connected to the Nest and one of the strongest powers in the cosmos. The Nest Leader.
Some people have heard him talk to Evee and the Nest Leader before. They saw the fear in the eyes of the Peak Tier-6 Hyuman when he told him that the Nest Leader’s blood coursed through him, even worse than an ordinary Curse User’s blood circulating through him. They saw the Hyuman, a prideful Elite of the Supreme Human Alliance, cry.
They hoped Michael would use his connections to help the Tritan Alliance prosper and survive. Therefore, they invested in him with the most valuable things they had: their Racial Symbols.
‘It works. Planetary energy generators aren’t cheap, and I’m not planning to use the Racial Achievement Points for myself, either. I’m not lacking anything right now. Except for powerful techniques, which can be solved via the Altors Union or the Nest, Curse Fusion’s mastery is the priority either way. It will take a while before I can spend more time mastering new techniques.’
“Since you have their Racial Symbols, purchase a Cosmic Trading Market. I will talk to some merchants in the Altors Union about the trading market. As long as you insert a bunch of Soultrait Symbols into the Cosmic Trading Market, which is a market connecting to other Trading Markets across the cosmic for the records, you shouldn’t have any issues procuring what you need. You should use your Racial Achievement Points to purchase several hubs for the Cosmic Trading Market, a bunch of shops to specialize in certain goods, and find a few merchants in dire need of things you and the Tritan Alliance can sell.”
“Other than that, you should create Warp Points across the Tritan Alliance’s territory. Warp Points are too expensive if you connect all of them, but you should create one Warp Point on every planet – two or more if the planet is massive – and interlink them to allow planetary traveling within the stellar system. Since you already have a capital on every planet, you should also announce one of the planets as the stellar system’s main planet. Install a more advanced Warp Point on the main planet to accelerate traveling to other stellar systems in your control.”
“There is a lot more you should purchase, including more advanced technology to colonize planets if you ever think about expanding, but I would focus on your two stellar systems and the Origin Expanse. We haven’t discovered whether the torn firmament prevents Divine Lifeforms from entering your galaxy or just the two stellar systems. Still, from the little pile of information we have, we can guess that only five stellar systems are blocked off by Divine Lifeforms. That includes the three adjacent stellar systems around the solar system. But as mentioned before, we can only say for certain that two are blocked. We need more information to make a proper conclusion and prove our guess. ”
Even though Selena was angry before, she managed to calm down and devise several plans to help the Tritan Alliance with some of their most apparent issues.
First, the Tritan Alliance’s members lived too far apart. It was too difficult for ordinary humans to see a Berserker and Warlock Centaur in their short life. Since most people feared the unknown, it wasn’t that challenging for the Blaze Patriarch and his people to influence humans into believing that the Berserkers and Warlock Centaurs were bad people.
Selena considered that, so she wanted to create an easy means of teleportation in the Tritan Alliance’s territory.
‘If we’re using spaceships or underground trains, we shouldn’t have difficulty connecting all provinces with quick means to travel to the Warp Points. Once at a Warp Point, it will be easy to travel around. That will make it much easier to establish gathering points where we could also train the elite. It will also make trading much easier…and solving the issues between Humans, Berserkers, and Warlock Centaurs.’
Connecting everyone with Warp Points would improve various points. Selena stated that they were somewhat expensive and that each interlink of Warp Points would boost the cost exponentially, but it wasn’t like the Tritan Alliance was in control of many planets. They had only two stellar systems and less than 20 planets to connect.
He nodded slowly and checked the Racial Symbols, which he’d connected to simplify future processes.

Michael couldn’t assist but scowl when he saw the [Bloodline] tab, but that wasn’t Will’s fault. The Supreme Human Alliance was so obsessed over bloodlines that anything related to them annoyed him. Maybe a part of the annoyance was also because his bloodline was shitty – except for his brother. Daniel Fang was the best brother he could have gotten.
