Ritual resonance

His desire for assimilating the Orc tribes into his Nation grew stronger as Michael envisioned the possibilities this could entail.

If they became his citizens, he could awaken their talents and subsequently upgrade their skills and their affinity to mana.

Right now, their [Sugar Rush] skill only increased the strength of their Earth element spells, but if he were to get his hands on it, then Michael was sure that he could upgrade that into a greater version of it where it could boost all elements!

If he were to couple this with their resonance ritual, then the Orcs could turn out to become an incredibly reliable source of security.

"How did you like the chocolate?" Michael asked, though he didn't need to hear them say it to know their answer. Their delighted faces and longing for more chocolate were more than enough for Michael to know they were hooked.

As it turned out, the Orcs were quite sweet-toothed.
