The battle was over.
Egypt had retreated, and the strange ship had also vanished. Some parts, which roughly had a span of nearly forty square meters and several stories worth, fell down like a meteor to the sea below.
The WGP announced that they were victorious with the help of a mysterious alliance.
"We of the Everhiss clan have made the tough decision of allying ourselves with a certain power. However, it is clear that this ally of ours had their own secret alliance that consisted of Egypt and that Moon that we previously thought was destroyed at the Pangean region. We do not know whether or not that was the same ship or if it was another. But the world now knows that the WGP isn't an organization that can protect you. Had those two ships attacked the World Helm itself, even I cannot claim true victory for our own. Therefore, I am requesting all Emperors to meet and for us to discuss how to face this new world." Phoenix Everhiss made his public appearance, going so far as to show his face in the announcement.
The Everhiss won the support of those who took part in the battle as the salvaged parts were distributed. Equally. A segment of the ships was being shown, and bidding took place.
Experts of all sorts were hired b the government of the nearby nations and made their bid as to which part they would take. Naturally, the WGP was the first to take their piece. But the part they took was one on the outer edge of the ship of the saucer.
Most of the engineers stated that the deeper the parts are into the large saucer, the more valuable. But the WGP took a fringe part and added suspicions to the previous conclusions.
The Many Mansions of the WGP carried a large piece of Shakstress's ship and began to deliver it to the World's Helm.
Phoenix retreated to the Many Mansions as some of their trusted officials initiated the bidding.
As he entered the room, several Emperors awaited him, each with their own reports to make.
"Any word from Seeker?" Phoenix ignored everyone and turned to Nogard.
"That damned brat sure has a lot of orders to make an old man like me. So what's the situation in the WGP?" Nogard laughed.
"The world is in an upheaval. That battle is forcing the WGP to take actions beyond what we ever have done. Still, this has already pushed thee WGP to the point that a Throne War can happen. The WGP has never been this unified. The sight of that Throne gave us a lot of grounds to study it. The energy that they call the Universe Energy is vastly different from the ones that we create. Because of that, the ones who want to fight back are growing in number. It almost got approved the last time I suggested combining all of those WGP megastructures and Many Mansions. I just need to justify why it has to be in Jerusalem, and operation Tale of Two Cities can finally start!" Phoenix laughed.
"Pridgeon will undoubtedly position his moon in Mesopotamia. Have you found anything to support the possibility of building it?"
"We have checked with the reports in Mesopotamia. As you said, a lot of resources are being sent in. A city is being built there. It's capitalizing with the movement of regathering the Jews. Now, in these uncertain times, more and more people are joining in the cause to regather the Jews thanks to Eagle's sermons. And if Babylon is built, we will have reason to place the entire fortresses of the WGP and build the city of Jerusalem." Pheonix assessed.
"The Presiders will also start building their cities. And it's our job to make sure that only two cities remain. As it stands, Andronze might join and help Pridgeon. But Seeker's plan has gone mad. He wants me to develop my powers to affect others who are not supporting our cause. That vision of the Lost Primordial drove him insane."
"How so?"
"Just as the Tyrant Empress has her power to influence everyone through dreams and vision and influence the world, Seeker is convinced that it's possible to train to a level where my soul will linger and be some spirit that can haunt people! He said that since cures and life-prolonging sciences are not yet complete, the best thing I can do is cultivate that my soul will continue to live on even when I'm dead!" Nogard chuckled.
"Is it possible? There have been some among the Everhiss family who saw dreams of that succubus. Is it possible for your soul to really move out of the body?"
"I don't know." Nogard shrugged his shoulders.
"My ability to use my powers is limited within a certain range. In that soul world, I don't even know how to move. I can attack and even kill someone within roughly ten meters from where I am, but that's that. I still have a locality and a position in this dimension. This is why the Realm King and the Void Assassins techs are among the things I have been studying. I'll probably have a lot from Seeker's recent power-up, but right now, I don't know how to move and attack and have no locality in my body."
"But what about the Tyrant Empress? Can't she move around with her power?"
"It's not really her soul, but it's the manifestation of her desires. But it's not really 'life'. Seeker wants me to 'live' outside of my body. So it's a bit different from what the Tyrant Empress can do. My power is Soul. Do you know why she is called the Rider of the Red Horse? It's because her powers are more or less a nightmare. And not many people realize that the word nightmare comes from 'night' and 'mare'. A mare is the Old English term referring to a demonic creature. One demonic creature is responsible for giving bad dreams. But I guess that in the future, the Tyrant Empress's powers of desires that reach the subconscious and the dream worlds will cause nightmares and such. Of course, today, a mare is usually what we call a female horse. So it's really a play on words."
"I see. So a Nightmare!"
"Yes. She actually tried to appear before me, but I easily repelled it. She is on the path to Soul Cultivation. But you can say that my powers are more advanced to a certain degree. But ultimately, the two of us are simply treading on different routes as the Lost Primordial intended. Who knows? Maybe everything that we have been through was planned by that Lost Primordial."
"Everything we've been through? You mean the plot of the Lost Primordial doesn't focus alone on Seeker?"
"The more we know about Primes and Principals, the more we get the sense of what they can do. If I can alter beyond the three dimensions, I can dictate your fate. The Tyrant Empress lived a very dangerous and scary life, as did all of the Overcomers. What if the Lost Primordial arranged every situation? He is more of a god, after all. Isn't it even mentioned in the bible?" Nogard asked.
Phoenix recalled the verse that Eagle taught them.
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." Pheonix quoted.
"Won't it be a simple thing? When time and reality are all but one, dictating the future and molding us into who we are, are but easy tasks for those who are gods. Perhaps that is what Primes and Primordials can do. We are in between the fight between two gods. Luckily, the Lost Primordial seem to worship our God." Nogard smiled.
"Then all the more reason to follow his plans!" Pheonix declared with passion.
Nogard smiled but vowed in his heart never to meet with Eagle. He subtly implied the existence of other gods, yet the fanatic of Christ took everything as something that supports his new theology.
"In any case, Seeker is telling me to cultivate and literally become a ghost. Unlike the Tyrant Empress, I can be a free spirit that can move back and forth around the area. What insanity. He wants me to pass on this technique to that Pangea artist he found. If both of us are able to work together, we can have the ultimate spy."
"I've heard of that artist... To think Granite Malang was able to see the real form of Presider Lanterk!"
"With Principals reaching Earth, people with special abilities like this painter becomes extremely useful. Too bad we haven't made much progress in this. Granite Malang was a miracle on his own. He could even be a seed of the Lost Primordial if I'm not mistaken"
"It's good to have God in our side! We will win this war!" Pheonix laughed.
Nogard smiled but began to consider avoiding Eagel's sermons.
"What about you? What shall be your direction, and why did you stay here?"
"That vision that Seeker saw and the many spoils we acquired in the battle has changed the direction and path of every Overcomer. Anyone who wants to be an Overcomer is now revamping their Paths and trying to develop what Seeker has discovered." Nogard stood up. He was wearing a Supreme Exoskeleton that they had acquired from Shakstress.
"I believe that the key to accomplishing what Seeker wants me to do, is to extend the range of the power of my soul. Continue with your report. But after this, I wish to fight with all the Emperors here. They can bring their Thrones. But I wish to fight everyone here.. The only way for my Path to become stronger is through combat."
