Michael was not sure what to think about Hiraku. Of course, Hiraku was extremely strong. He was a Peak Tier-3 Awakened and had a unique Soultrait.
However, Hiraku looked distant and cold. It was hard to approach him.
Fortunately, Michael didn't intend to approach Hiraku, in the first place. He came here to talk with Frederik about the last few weeks and to invite his friend to join his territory.
Even though Frederik had been in a coma for a few weeks and recuperating from the Minor Curse and various wounds, he had advanced to the Mid rank of Tier-2. That wasn't too bad given that he couldn't enter the Origin Expanse to exploit the time dilation to the fullest. However, Frederik was dirt poor now. His family's savings were used up and it would be difficult to improve any further.
