Normally he would be happy to entertain these two interesting kids for a bit, but with how time sensitive this war was, he wasn\'t in the mood for any funny business right now.

"I have a piece of information that I\'m sure you\'d like to hear, Principal."

Alex spoke, his voice calm and firm.

He spoke with conviction, which spiked Principal Farne\'s curiosity.

For Alex\'s tone to be so serious, the information he held had to be even more serious.

"Spit it out then."

With his approval to go ahead, Alex didn\'t hold back any longer.

"I believe I\'m the only one in the entire federation who knows this, with you and Mira about to be the second and third."

Alex paused as he turned to his side, giving Mira a glance before he turned back to Principal Farnes.

Mira was just as curious as the Principal at this point.

"We can harvest and use other sentient race\'s soul cores and use them to progress, just like we do with beast cores from the Primordial Expanse and the various Floodgates across the federation."

"..."

"..."

This news came like a bombshell to both Principal Farnes and Mira.

The implication of such a thing, if true, was monumental.

Not only for this war, but for the indefinite future as a whole.

The Principal recognised immediately that this basically meant that every race in the universe was basically enemies with each other.

Which was why he was so serious when he questioned Alex.

"How do you know this? If it\'s even true."

Of course, this was where Alex was put in a bit of a tricky situation.

The Principal didn\'t know about his Soulforge talent, so he couldn\'t just show the soul orbs he had gained.

Not to mention he had absorbed them already…

So the next best thing he could do was tell a half truth.

"I\'ve been keeping it to myself for now, because if this information reached the masses, I\'m sure there would be those mad or desperate enough to seek out other alien races for their soul cores."

"Back when I was on the Kree ship, there was a moment when something dropped to the floor when I decapitated one of the Kree pirates."

"I was in the middle of battle, so I couldn\'t really check what it was at first."

"But afterwards when I was done with them, I was shocked when I picked up the item that dropped and found that it was the Kree\'s soul core."

Principal Farnes had already got the gist of Alex\'s story now.

But he was still a little sceptical.

"I know this isn\'t enough to believe me yet, so I only ask one thing of you."

\'?\'

Mira and Principal Farnes were a little confused when Alex proposed this.

But their confusion changed to realisation when Alex spoke the next few words.

"Ask the system."

"Ask it if what I am saying about using these foreign race\'s soul cores is true."

Principal Farnes didn\'t show much of a change in his expression, until a few seconds later when his eyebrows furrowed and he turned to look outside the window in deep thought.

The fact that he hadn\'t called Alex out for lying yet was already a telling sign that the system had given him the answer he wanted.

Mira was the same, but there was also a mixture of excitement and anticipation mixed in with her myriad of emotions.

The fact that the Red Demon race would have the potential to drop their soul cores when they were killed would change the whole landscape of this war, not only for her, but for every other student, soldier or mercenary who fought.

It gave them a chance, other than the Floodgates, to advance and progress their own soul cores.

There was now an actual incentive for all of these people to fight.

"So that\'s why the Red Demon race was so quick to attack us then…" Principal Farnes muttered.

He caught on quickly, just like Alex did when he found out.

"What do you think we should do then, sir? We can\'t just keep this information to ourselves. The public would find out very soon anyway when the first reports of people looting and absorbing the Red Demon\'s soul cores hit the galactic net."

"By that point, we wouldn\'t be able to control the flow of information like we would if we released it ourselves."

Alex spoke to Principal Farnes.

\'He raises a good point. This kid could have a future in politics…\'

Principal Farnes wasn\'t one for politics himself, so he hadn\'t really considered this side of things.

\'He\'s right. We should be the ones to release this information first.\'

\'In fact, we could use it to our advantage, to motivate more and more awakened to join the war.\'

\'During peace times, this information could be very harmful to the human race.\'

\'But since we\'re already at war… Fuck it!\'

"I agree. We should be the ones to release this information."

Alex sighed a heavy sigh of relief when Principal Farnes agreed with him.

Things would get very chaotic and hectic if people discovered it on their own.

"But I should inform the old fogeys about it first."

\'Ahh yeah… I almost forgot to consider them.\'

The old fogeys Principal Farnes referred to obviously meant Admiral Olgierd and the others of the round table.

The information about the soul cores would seem much more credible if it came from the likes of Admiral Olgierd\'s mouth than Principal Farnes\'s.

Alex and Mira were soon teleported away from the office, finding themselves in Alex\'s living room once again.

While Principal Farnes teleported himself across planets in an instant and called for yet another emergency meeting between those S tier powerhouses of the round table.

***

"Damn it Farnes, what is it this time!"

"It better be good, I was just about to depart towards the frontlines, and now you\'ve delayed me." Admiral Olgierd said.

The other eight of the round table were quite disgruntled when they were suddenly called for another emergency meeting so soon after the previous one had ended.

But Principal Farnes didn\'t care how they felt.

He was the strongest one there, so he had the strongest say.

"I just received a very… interesting piece of information that could potentially turn the tides of this war in our favour."

The other\'s snide remarks and disgruntled expressions were washed away immediately after Principal Farnes said this.

Admiral Olgierd in particular was very interested to hear what this information could be, since he was the one most invested in the logistical side of the war.

"So it turns out that…."

Principal Farnes repeated what Alex had said to him and what the system had confirmed back to the other eight S tiers in the room.

They essentially had the same reaction as Principal Farnes did when he first heard it.

With Admiral Olgierd making the same suggestion as Alex of releasing this information themselves.

"I\'m sure you all can guess where this information came from, considering it can only be one person who could have learned of this."

Principal Farnes was right.

The others had already immediately deduced that Alex was the one who had reported this, which only increased their interest in him even more.

Some of them like Admiral Olgierd only became more and more confident that Alex would be joining them at the round table as an equal sooner or later.
