Michael slowly steadied his breathing while Wisdom continued clinging proudly to the back of his neck.
The owl clearly had no understanding of how absurd what it had just done was.
Michael, however, understood perfectly.
Michael reached up and grabbed the now much larger owl before pulling it in front of him.
Wisdom puffed its chest out proudly.
"Wisdom strong now."
"Yes," Michael admitted honestly. "Very strong."
The floating feathers behind the owl shifted slightly as if reacting emotionally. Tiny cracks appeared in the air around them before healing instantly.
Hmm, seems like it still needs time to control its powers.
That much was quite understandable. After all, it had jumped an entire major rank.
This was also not the result Michael had expected.
Originally, he had estimated that merging all the materials with Wisdom would at best push it into the Extraordinary rank with a one-star rating.
If things went especially well, then maybe two stars.
But three stars?
