Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!
chapter-1013

The fissures in space appeared unexpectedly. At least Michael didn't expect them. However, the God Curses seemed to have expected them. No, they had called for them. They used their Divinities, consuming a massive amount of Essence alongside two of the dead planets – which Michael noticed were missing only now – to call for help.

'The Beastial Galaxies!' Michael exclaimed.

[Somewhat like that. The Beastial Galaxies are not enough to deal with a Primal. We needed more than a few old Beast Gods. Your Beast Halos are fairly useful. We could channel our Essences through them to verify the genuinety of our existence and showed them some memories of your fight.] Hal said.

[Well, we also showed them a little bit more about your past and everything else beforehand. Also, about your fight with the Volcano God. It was a little annoying to waste our Divinities like this, but I'm glad we did that for the last few weeks. Maintaining the Beast Halo was also a tad annoying, but it worked out well.]

A white horse, its muscles constricting with every step it took into the wide-open space, emerged from one of the fissures. It was winged with a pair of golden-framed feathers. The feathers attracted Michael's interest, but even more interesting was a six-legged horse with a familiar presence.

'This one is one of your siblings, ain't it? It feels oddly familiar.'

The six-legged horse looked at Percy and tilted its head. It neighed a moment later and appeared beside him. Percy didn't even sense the horse's movements nor the Essence it had released.

[I'm Sleipnir. And yes, these idiots inside you are my siblings. No, I cannot read your mind. Yes, your expressions are easy to read. And no, I'm not stronger than them. They're just idiots for getting caught or for fusing with you without asking for your permission. I apologize for their behavior. My siblings must have been very happy to find a suitable vessel. Happy enough to surrender a portion of their existence and forfeit their Divinities to create someone like you.] the horse, but Michael just listened.

He was confused, but that was only obvious. Who wouldn't be confused listening to the complaints of a stranger.

'Sleipnir seems nice. He has a brain.'

[Shut up! We just saved your life!] Fenrir growled.

'Thanks for that. But this is not yet over, you know?'

The Primal ignored the fissures in the fabric of space and reality and attacked Michael again. His body was torn apart and it was no surprise when Michael lost his lower body. His arms were missing as well, leaving him his chest, neck, and head unscathed.

If not for Michael's quick response, he would have died to the Primal's attack.

[Oh yeah. The Primal is still here and those idiots take too long to step through the fissure!!!] Fenrir complained, but Michael just shrugged. Or he would have if he had still his shoulder left. They were removed alongside his arms and had to regrow first.

The Pegasus appeared before Sleipnir and unleashed its power. It didn't say anything to Michael, but that wasn't needed. It looked deep into Michael's vibrant golden eyes and started healing him. The Nature Divinity kicked in, filling Michael with more than enough lifeforce and nutrients to supplement the Pegasus' Essence.

The Pegasus' Essence entered Michael's body and accelerated the supreme healing serum and River of Vigor drastically. Michael's missing body parts regrew almost instantaneously.

"Thank you," Michael hinted a bow toward the Pegasus, which neighed in excitement.

[My little girl is interested in your Nature Divinity. How did you procure it? She – or rather we – thought the Law of Nature disappeared eons ago.] Sleipnir asked while more and more Beast Gods and other creatures emerged from the fissures.

Michael could see a few dragons, two Hydras, a Behemoth, a Leviathan, Tigers, more Wolves – they glared in Michael's direction and were clearly displeased with him or what was inside him –, Frost Giants, human-like creatures and much more.

One particular man who transformed from a frost giant into a very human-like man smiled gently at Michael. [That's our father.] Jormungandr explained, to which Michael responded with an "Oh. Okay."

Was he supposed to thank their father because their children gave him their Divinities? But then again, Michael was never asked if he wanted their Divinities. Of course, he liked them, but it wasn't like the three siblings didn't receive anything in return.

[Don't bother doing anything. We will see him later again. He is a chatterbox and a sly, tricky bastard. Don't let him get to your mind!] Fenrir growled again, which surprised Michael a little.

'Looks like my family isn't the only one with issues.'

He chuckled, ignoring the Pirmal's follow-up attacks. A massive Gorilla, probably more than a hundred meters tall, appeared before Michael and blocked the Essence streams of the Primal with his own Divinity. The Gorilla had a Defensive-type Divinity, allowing the creature to block attacks from the Primal with little pain and effort.

"Back to the topic," Michael cleared his throat, "I acquired the Nature Heart as a Divinity Fragment from the Untamed Jungle. It was once one of the Primal Regions of the Origin Expanse." [I see. That makes sense. I also understand why my siblings chose to merge with you without asking for your consent. Everything was supposed to be like this. Sadly, I couldn't fuse with you and it is too late to do that now. If I had only been a little bit earlier.]

It was confusing to see Sleipnir show genuine sadness at the thought. He was sincere when he mentioned to merge with Michael. The regret in the Beast God's voice was overwhelming.

[He is ours! Back off, you annoying brick!!] Fenrir roared.

Michael raised an eyebrow but decided to ignore the siblings. They were even worse than he had been with Danny and his other family. He shrugged it off and turned to the other Gods. the Beast Gods attracted his attention, but he was more interested in the other Gods. There were more than a hundred of them, including Loki, but his eyes lingered on someone else.

Beelzebub.

'Did you guys invite this one as well?'

[Who are you talking about?] Jormungandr asked first, using Michael's eyes to see whom he was looking at.

"I am looking at Beelzebub. What is that guy doing here? Didn't he tell us that he is going to kill me the next time we meet?" [You met Beelze already? That's surprising.] Sleipnir said in Michael's mind, but Michael could only frown.

"It wasn't a nice meeting. He took over the body of the man who killed my brother – not directly, but whatever. I managed to revive my brother but that's not the point. I accidentally helped Beelzebub awaken and he told me that he would kill me the next time we meet."

[I don't think he is going to kill you. If anything, he will help you kill the Primal. We might be more than 100 Gods coming for your reinforcement but nobody can kill the Primal, especially if the Primal–...] Sleipnir didn't have to go all-in into detail because the Primal acted already.

He unleashed a typhoon of Essence and..disappeared. A few fissures were torn into shreds, leaving behind Torn Firmaments that would swallow the empty planetary system soon, but nobody paid much attention to it.

The Primal vanished just like that.
