The debate was a bit of a struggle, to put it lightly. It was a lot more problematic than Michael had expected. Sometimes, the situation escalated, and Michael was certain a few Super Awakened would have crushed each other’s skulls if not for Hiraku, Danny, and him interrupting the quarreling Awakened before it was too late.
Fortunately, the debate worked out…somehow. The 24 hours he’d scheduled to go through the debate hadn’t been long enough, though. One day transformed into a full-fledged week of debating and ‘fighting’ with words about how worthy they were to acquire a particular Soultrait Symbol.
Many Super Awakened were so agitated when the others told them they weren’t fit enough to wield some Soultraits and started fighting for real. Their words were repelled and voided, so their fists had to speak up instead. That was definitely not what Michael had planned, forcing him to intervene. Unfortunately, that happened more often than he initially thought. He didn’t expect his presence and interceptions to be needed all over the training ground every 30 minutes or less. Still, the debate worked. Everyone had discovered something new about themselves, whether it was their debating skills, their affinities toward certain types of Soultraits…or what others thought of them and how they assessed each other’s prowess.
The latter was very interesting. Some Super Awakened considered themselves weaker than others in certain regards, but their comrades were of a different opinion. One Healer and one Summoner, two Awakened with those particular Soultrait Symbols, had been certain that their Soultraits fight well to them, but Berserkers and Warlock Centaurs, as well as some Forest Elves, explained to them how wrong they were. One of them was more suited toward melee combat. His combat awareness and tactical understanding of close combat fights were shockingly high, pushing him to the top percentile of the Super Awakened in that regard.
He was convinced to acquire other Soultrait Symbols and alter his existing Soultrait with Michael’s help.
The Summoner was in a similar situation. He had a Summoning Soultrait, which fit very well to him – his words –but the others said that this wasn’t the case. They told him to become an Elemental Awakened. Just because he Summons Elemental Sprites doesn’t mean he was a great Summoner. He could command the Elements much better than most of the Sprites he’d summoned! He was a born sorcerer!
Similar situations like this happened here and there. It was intriguing to see how much the opinions of some Super Awakened changed and how much influence they had on each other.
Throughout the debate, Michael had given everyone their share of Soultrait Symbols and Soultrait Upgrades. Over the last few months, he had killed enough enemies to transform the Awakened into proper powerhouses capable of killing Divine Lifeforms as Tier-6 Higher Lifeforms.
The set-up of monster Super Awakened was fairly simple. Since they’d been part of Michael’s territory for a while now and considered to be the cream of the crop among all Awakened of the Untamed Awakened, most Super Awakened had either two or three Soultrait Symbols even before Michael transformed them into Super Awakened.

Their Soultraits were averaged at 4-Star, which was decent but not extraordinary. Their average rating changed after Michael’s magical touch. The Super Awakened created Soul Spheres, which Michael had to supplement with enough SoulStar Fragments to avoid certain problems. He helped create the Soul Spheres as the number of Soultrait Symbols in their soul increased.
At the end of the debate, everyone had eight Soultrait Symbols, some who already had four Soultrait Symbols before, even more.
Not all of them had been pushed to 6-Star, but most of their Soultrait Symbols were 5-Star Symbols, which elevated their combat prowess to a higher level. With eight Soultrait Symbols and an average star rating of five stars, the Super Awakened were the strongest.
However, not all Soultrait Symbols were useful for combat. Every Super Awakened had at least one Soultrait Symbol that Michael considered a “Last Rope” Soultrait. That Soultrait was an emergency Soultrait, which would trigger and pull the Awakened out of dangerous situations like encountering a Demi-God, God, Primal, or the like. Not all Last Ropes were the same but all of them rescued the Awakened in the case of an emergency.
At least, that was the plan. Michael was unsure if it worked like that, but he sure hoped so.
Once the Super Awakened were fully equipped – they’d obtained a few Legendary High Artifacts as well – Michael told them to gather outside the Origin Expanse. Since he couldn’t travel back to the Tritan Alliance without killing everyone, he provided the resources and devices needed to gather somewhere he could reach.
Slipstream would help him teleport around and bring the Super Awakened where he needed them the most. Unfortunately, the Super Awakened needed a few weeks to travel and gather.
That was a little annoying since Michael and others were excited about their debut in the Supreme Human Alliance, but Michael chose to make use of that.
He traveled to the Novix Galaxy and wreaked havoc using Jormungandr’s Divinity and Fenrir’s Divinity. To be precise, they used their Divinity through him to nourish the Divinity Seeds, but the specifics mattered little. Michael observed the Altors Union and Supreme Human Alliance alike. They were both annoying, yet it would have been great if the Altors Union was a little bit more annoying. Not annoying to him, but the Supreme Human Alliance.
Unfortunately, the Altors Union wasn’t that great at annoying the SHA. They were still not on the winning side. The Supreme Human Alliance had crushed everything Michael had done to increase their chances of victory. Michael was still clueless about how they did it, but the Altors Union struggled greatly. That was how he ended up making an offer to the Altors Union. freewebnoveℓ.com
He might not love the Altors Union, but they were the lesser evil compared to the Supreme Human Alliance. In fact, the only annoying thing they did was to abandon the Nest. They weren’t trustworthy allies to have around, but it wasn’t like they did many evil things. In fact, Michael had yet to hear them do anything truly evil.
Once Michael considered that, he made a simple offer to the Altors Union.
“Hello there. Please tell your superior, or whoever is in charge of the armies, that I can provide 4-Star and 5-Star Soultrait Symbols to the Awakened of the Altors Union. I have distributed a total of 2,000 to those Awakened – this offer only applies to Divine Lifeforms – who become my Subordinates. If 400 Divine Awakened decides to become my Subordinates, they will be given five Soultraits. If 500 become my Suboridnates, everyone will be given four Soultraits,” Michael waved his hand dismissively in front of an Altors Commander.
“Either way, tell your higher-ups about my offer. I can help you change the Titan War against the Supreme Human Alliance. All you have to do is surrender a batch of Divine Lifeforms. Let me be clear about something: I can offer the Divine Lifeforms great deals but also sign a Soul Pact not to force them to do anything they seem inappropriate and the like. If you don’t accept this offer, I can always search for other Awakened to bind to me. The Altors Union might cease to exist, but my forces will prevail. I don’t have to care about your survival.”
“The decision is on you!”
