Altors Union

The Nest Leader's timing was excellent. Michael finished interrogating the Hyuman when Selena called him through the Curse User's communication device. 

"I heard from Evee that you're about to do something stupid. She has been researching your friends' whereabouts, but it's not simple. Don't even think about charging into the SHA's territory!" Selena sounded frustrated, which Michael could understand.

She had probably better things to do than running behind a newly ascended Curse User.

"You cannot enter the Supreme Human Alliance's territory. They will sense your Curses the moment you reach their borders. Even if you manage to conceal your Curses perfectly, they will be able to sense the Berserkers' and Warlock Centaurs' Essences within you. You will be dead long before you can find Alice and the rest. It will be an unnecessary death!"

Michael did understand the Nest Leader's reasoning, but he was restless. He felt helpless…useless.
