"An Aubility?! You're a funny man, Keo. It's been tested numerous times that demi-humans cannot take GodForge pieces. There are world wars fought exactly because of how many atrocities had been done to prove that."
Michael shrugged. "I don't know, professor. That just seems the only likely possibility."
"There has to be some other reason," the professor insisted.
"Would you like to bet on that, professor?" Michael asked immediately, sensing an opportunity.
"Sure!"
He smiled. "That would be two favors you owe me if you lose this one."
"And we would get even if I win. If that ridiculous guess turned out to be true, then I'd be doubly in your favor."
Michael smiled and let the professor keep on laughing about the insane 'guess' he had.

One of the Werewolf Judges answered, "You mean Jaku? Yeah. He did."
