Chapter 447 - Truths For All Presiders

Feyor was cautiously assessing Seeker.

"There is something strange with how you speak. We asked for information about the Lost Primordial. And yet, your deflection to Straviaa's question draws in a lot of other questions. Presiders! Be careful! He has a power that is similar to mind control!"

Everyone but Tiana was startled.

"Now, why would you say that, Feyor? If you kept your mouth shut, we would have gained an advantage. Are you secretly allied to Straviaa and Enderks?" Tiana frowned.

Feyor was stunned. He slapped his hand on his forehead as he realized what he had done.

"Oh... Now I see. You intended to make him say that, didn't you, Progenitor?" Tiana gave a curious look at Seeker.

"Hehe." Seeker didn't answer but simply laughed.

Straviaa was giving Seeker an enraged look. She had believed Seeker's words, and suddenly, she realized something was wrong. Obviously, this Progenitor wouldn't tell them the truth! Yet, she was somehow drawn into the rhythm of Seeker.

"You! How dare you! I demand compensation! You have been lying to us!" Straviaa shouted.

"I was telling a lie. But those lies are intended to show the truth. You now know of the mystery here on Earth. I might have switched or altered a few. I could be the Lost Primordial, and my enemy is the Progenitor. I am also doing you a favor. Among the powers that were acquired, it is the power to speak the truth and use it to make us trustworthy!" Seeker explained.

"You Mid-Tiers would never understand it. I am assuming only Top-Tiers like Tiana can."

Tiana maintained her silence and only chuckled.

"The truth is, you all had some clashes with the Lost Primordial already. I am showing you what the Lost Primordial is capable of! His powers in telling the truth will confuse you. Who knows? You might be allied with them. Why do you think Andronze and Pridgeon helped them attack a power Top-Tier like Shakstress? And even now, as I revealed that I lied, you still can't help but trust me." Seeker laughed.

"He's... right..." Straviaa answered unconsciously.

"What strange power is this? Presider Tiana?" Feyor asked Tiana.

Tiana smiled.

"Shakstress has this. Her defeat in Egypt has long proven that they have this power. But it's interesting. We are all using anti mind control techs. And yet, you have this power?"

"I'll give you a hint. It isn't mind control!" Seeker revealed.

"As I said. I was just telling the truth. That power is one of the things that our body has. This is why we are different and, in some ways, superior to you who have Thrones. And that brings us to the next trade—information regarding the Phallium suits that I am using to gain your trust. Unlike the former trade, this one will be given off individually. I can show you data on how we slowly transform humans into superhuman beings that can harness the power you Nefilus users have. Of course, I leave it to you to discuss whether you will trust me. I did just lie to you." Seeker chuckled.

"Lennox. You're up. Take over and speak before that lady can understand my Zone."

The lightning emerged and connected with the Presiders once more.

Lennox began to talk directly to them once more, and Seeker allowed Greg to take over his body.

Greg made an expression that looked like he was lost in the forest.

Tiana saw it and frowned, but she began to talk to Lennox for the next techs to offer.

The Presiders began to discuss with Lennox. And as before, only Zeraphine didn't join in.

Feyor began vocally arguing with the other Presiders and voiced his suspicion. But even then, the rest began trading deals. 

As the trades continued, the main thought process of Lennox was watching inside Seeker.

"That's a bold gamble. You are revealing one of our strongest aces in this battle."

"I'm sure you understand why."

"I do. But the risk is too high. You tell them this power, but this truth is also a lie. It's a lie because we also have the power to tell lies."

"Trust me. This is the best course of action."

"What a very Seeker Carlean response. 'Source: Dude, Trust me.'" Lennox sighed.

"Mid-Tier Presiders are people of techs and many powers. Unlike Top-Tiers who have made a focus on one, notice how Andronze, Gordon, and Pridgeon like to keep an accounting of everything they know. Them knowKnowinghave this mysterious power will make them even more cautious towards each other. We have to keep that wedge of trust between Presiders apart. Don't you see, Lennox? I am following the real power of the Lost Primordial. The power of Unity. Our lies can make them trust us, and we might soon have real Presider allies."

"Any complaints about the information? So we can move on to the next trade." Seeker waited. 

He was watching, and Lennox was also observing their actions.

"Your ability to follow Lowengren's Path is astonishing. It's working. I can feel the math that dictates they believe."

"Let's hope so." Seeker kept his front.

"How many Presiders does the Lost Primordial have?" Feyor asked.

"I don't know. I wish I knew. But it's probably as many as mine." Seeker shrugged.

The group was twitching from Lennox's answers. 

"What technology do you know that he has and uses?" Straviaa asked.

"You guys probably know more about this than me. Haven't there been many clashes between you and the Lost Primordial around the world? I will admit that Feyor's group clashed with mine in Pangea, and that's when that goat appeared and played the docile lamb. But as for those in One China, Russia, Europe, and elsewhere, I have no knowledge of those."

"... You didn't say Egypt." Tiana raised her eyebrows.

"Of course, I didn't. I was involved in that battle. Various battles were happening, and a city in Egypt was wiped out. Who do you think was responsible for that if the Lost Primordial allied with Andronze?"

"I have a feeling that you are switching identities. You claim one thing, but I believe it's the opposite." Tiana answered.

"As expected of someone with Zone. Well, I can't clearly say which one is my man and which isn't. But why should I tell you?" Seeker laughed.

The eyes of Tiana turned amused.

"Why indeed? You really are a person who can see the Workings of the Universe. It's strange. I thought I could see through you earlier, but now I can't." Tiana smiled.

The nearby Presiders reacted. They have always heard of it. Tiana's confirmation solidified the Progenitor's place as a Top-Tier.

"How generous. Saying those words to make the ones nearby respect me. Or are you doing it to make them fear me and see me as a threat?" Seeker laughed..

"Shall we continue?" Seeker asked.

"Let's just move on to another issue." Tiana insisted.

"Wait! I still have more to ask!" Straviaa frowned.

"Me too..." Feyor frowned.

"Hurry." Tiana smiled and turned on a particular video of a battle occurring just above the land and had an astonished expression.

"Oh? Are they fighting now? Interesting. Hope our side wins." Seeker made a passing comment, but Tiana ignored him and watched as a werewolf and a serpent fought in the city above.

The group paused as each Presider was thinking of more questions that they hoped Seeker would answer.

Some began to initiate trade requests and asked some specific questions.

"I have a trade request." Feyor requested.

"Technology for technology. What techs do you have? Maybe there are techs that are compatible with mine."

"Cold Fusion." Lennox took over and gave the answers as Seeker listened.

"It worked. That Tiana couldn't understand our Zone." The Adult Seeker called to the rest of the consciousness in Seeker.

"Your emotions are affecting mine. Stop it." The Child Seeker frowned.

"Sorry. I'm just rather excited. Our plans worked. I lived and died being in the hands of these Presiders. But now, we are actually leaving them with truths and lies that assure us being hidden from their view." The adult laughed.

"You painted a picture of a totally different enemy. And we are successful at it. This picture of the enemy makes us look like allies. Very impressive, Seekers." The woman inside Seeker's head talked.

"Yeah." Greg approved.

The other Presiders began imitating the trade, and even Seeker could feel the delight of Lennox.

"As they say, keep your friends close, your enemies closer. Now we have a very clear picture of that expression." Lennox's haughty voice was heard. Among the souls and manifestations of Seeker, Lennox's soul also appeared. Yet even though this manifestation appeared, several voices constantly conducted trades and made counteroffers to the various things that the Presiders were giving.

"You like their offers that much??"

"I love it. It will greatly help us, and soon, the Presider War will be the cover for our upcoming Overcomers War in Egypt. Are you sure you won't join us?" Lennox asked.

"No. It's better for me to keep my nose out of that battle. My Master, the Realm King, feared the Tyrant Empress for a reason. And here you are, subtly prodding me to join even though logically, the answer would always be no. See how affected you are, Lennox?"

"So that's what I'm doing? Interesting. And here I thought all my lust was in Egypt with her. I guess I have to get stronger."

"You have to. And me not joining that Overcomers War is because of another reason. It's about time for each of us to go back and prepare our own households for war. You all can't rely on me and have to become stronger on your own. I've already made the Unlocked Army reliant on me that we might be forgetting that we are Overcomers. Yes, we will follow the Path of the Lost Primordial and be Brothers that Dwell in Unity, but you all have to grow; otherwise, I can't grow. These Presiders see the Lost Primordial and the Progenitor as enemies and is divided. But if we want to win this war on Earth, we have to be as numerous as they are." Seeker answered firmly.

"Hmm? Finally." Lennox smiled.

"What? What did they offer?"

"We now have a name for that material. It's called a Nefilus Chrysalis. Basically, it's a hardened form of Universe Energy. Feyor is offering us a few."

"That Crystal? We can finally make those! How nostalgic.. We now have the very material that helped me reincarnate. Finally, the Thought Transmitter can be created!"
