Chapter 1018 Mike, the New Michael

"What...the hell did you just do?!" Loki asked, trying to fathom why Michael would sever a portion of his soul. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Michael chuckled, "You don't know what I have done and what I am doing with this?"

Loki cursed quietly, "Of course, I know what you have done. I also know what the Spring of Abundant Life did with your brother. But why do you think this is going to work on an ordinary soul?"

"Ordinary Soul? This was a Living Soul enhanced with two 8-Star Soultraits, a trace of Fenrir's Divinity, and Jormungandr and Hel's presence to alter the soul and affix it the same fluctuations as myself." Michael smiled.

"As for what exactly I did. I created a Plan B in case the Will wishes to throw me out of the Origin Expanse before we're done expanding the Untamed Jungle into a Primal Region. Mike, which is what I called the Living Soul, will help me with that. He will be my right hand, my left hand, my brain, my consciousness...and much more. He will be my everything. After all, Mike is ME...more or less."

Michael glanced at Loki, who listened intently. Loki might be the God of Trickery and a born God with countless years of living experience, but Michael's crazy actions were still something new to him.

"Mike is going to enter the Origin Expanse and organize the influx of the Everlasting Blessing's lifeforce, but that is only the beginning. Mike will also organize the energy of the primal root and how it is going to be channeled through the Untamed Jungle to expand it as fast as possible. After that, Mike will help the Super Awakened and other forces to convince the Lords living outside the Untamed Jungle to either join the Untamed Jungle or prepare for an all-out war against hundreds of thousands of enemies and millions of monsters. Well, there will also be a bunch of Divine Lifeforms on our side at that point, which means we will have an easy time with the expansion no matter what the Lords decide."

He shrugged and focused on his Living Soul as the first signs of growing a body entered his sight.

'[Second Body] must be accelerating the Living Soul's body growth. That is good to know. The soul is strong enough, and the Living Soul has more than enough energy, nutrients, and lifeforce, too. I can supply everything it needs!'

With that in mind, Michael focused on the creation of Mike's body for the next two months.

Two months. That was all they needed to form Mike's perfect body. A second body was born with the same soul and consciousness as Michael.

Mike rose form the Spring of Abundant Life, his eyes glowing golden as he looked at the man – himself – standing before him.

"You look great," Mike said, the corners of his lips tugging into a sly smile.

"I was just about to say the same," Michael responded with the same smile. However, Michael's smile turned into a shit-eating grin when he saw the War Rune forming on the back of Mike's hand.

It wasn't the exact same War Rune as everyone else had. Instead, it was a portion of the same rune, which connected Mike to Michael. Mike might not have proper Lord Powers, but he had the means to control Michael's subjects like everyone else.

After all, they were the same.
