The dark room was sealed with many techs. In the very depths of this room was a woman.
Zeraphine of the Presiders was locked in a large room, and her Throne had been dismantled.
She remained in shock after everything was revealed.
The truth was brought to her and shocked her.
She was deceived about the Lost Primordial and the Progenitor. Her only visitor was her friend, Charm, who she also loathed.
Charm had visited her numerous times when she was free and would even use warping technology to cross the distance despite her missions as a Novelty-Blastoise leader. She had been a constant visitor and was approved by the many leaders of the Unlocking to come and go as needed.
But this time, her visit was full of frustration. She barged in and no longer acted like one of the persons who hurt Zeraphine.
SLAP!
In her rage, she rushed up and delivered a slap.
Zeraphine spat out a lot of blood from the sudden slap and threw her to the ground.
She was wearing her Nefilus suit and had some energy left, giving her a durable body.
But Charm's slap was a slap that would have killed a normal person.
"What are you-!"
"I'm not going to talk to you and make some pity party to feel sorry for your betrayal! Do you know what I was ordered to do?! Do you know what I found out?! I was tasked to eliminate the underground forces of Pioneers and Planteds in the chaos that occurred! You know what I found? Humans... being experimented on! I found the database of what they have been doing on Earth! And some of them were approved by you!" Charm raged.
"Here I was, talking to poor old Zeraphine or Lara, or whatever your name is...! Did you know that the real Lara nearly died when they extracted your mind or soul and put you back in this body? Thank God she's Unlocked now! I was so stupid! I saw you and didn't see your actions! You've been killing, experimenting, and toying with lives! And here I was, feeling sorry for you! Sorry, Zeraphine! Sorry that you are from an alien race who treats us, humans, like pigs!"
SLAP!
Zeraphine couldn't fight back.
Charm had already reached the Inhuman stage and was too fast for Zeraphine to defend.
STOMP!
Zeraphine's head was being pressed down as Charm forced her foot on her head.
"I ought to crush your stupid head! Those lives! Those people! They were nothing to you! And I felt sorry that Seeker lied to you! I'm not sorry anymore! I wish he manipulated you! I wish he toyed with you all the more! I wish that I never loved you as a friend!" Charm roared.
"Love covers a multitude of sins. So I'm guessing you weren't at that level of love." Alean and Kristine appeared at the back.
"...General Alean!" Charm was shocked.
"Drop the formalities. I don't want to hear it. Everywhere it's like that... From now on, if you're with Kristine and me, can we just act like normal girls?"
"Normal girls don't fight in wars, general."
"They will. That time is coming. Just drop the title and call me Alean when we are alone. That's an order. Now... Please remove your feet from Zeraphine." Alean smiled.
Charm followed and moved back.
Zeraphine began to stand up.
ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom "Zeraphine. It's finally good to see you. Here, I brought someone you might recall."
Lara walked into the room. It was the former host of Zeraphine.
"Hello, Zeraphine." The girl spoke.
"You... survived." Zeraphine saw the girl.
"No thanks to you. But... I am flattered that you liked how I looked. I'm here because I understand you more than these people. Your soul was in me and controlling me for quite a long time."
"If you wanted to find out more about my Soul powers, then that Lynd shouldn't have destroyed my Throne!" Zeraphine shouted.
"I know your lying." Alean shook her head.
"It's pointless to lie to me. We have an idea of what your power is. But I'm here to confirm some things."
"I will not speak. Ask Garenjazz. Isn't he your bitch now?"
"He's an informant. You're the bitch." Alean smiled.
Zeraphine glared.
"I'm here... to break the flow. You probably don't know what my powers are because you would try to understand them from the perspective of a Presider. But the Lost Primordial did something interesting. Your leader, the Primordial, used the Nefilus Beast to make the Throne's power resonate with it. The Lost Primordial... er... found Jesus? I don't know. But he is using a different way to harness the Throne's power and wield the dimensions. And that is that he transformed us to be people worthy of sitting on those Thrones. So while our powers appear weaker to you, it has greater reach and growth. You need the Nefilus Suit to 'have access' to higher levels and purchase your armor with whatever socialist points you have in your world. We generally don't. The Throne only becomes a proper tool to harness it. But the power is with us. Unlike you, who need the Throne and the Suit." Alean smiled.
Zeraphine was stunned. That was very important information and explained numerous things that Zeraphine didn't understand.
Kristine and Charm frowned as they heard Alean say this. Why was she saying these things to Zeraphine?
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Because I am here to free you. And this is against any orders of any of my superiors, Arthur and Zeek included."
"What?"
"General!" Charm exclaimed.
Kristine and Lara were also surprised.
"Miss Alean! You're freeing this monster?!" Lara exclaimed.
"You know... When the Lost Primordial appeared and caused those Presiders to retreat, Arthur saw a great power that harnessed Universe Energy. Arthur's power is a great calculation that often is frighteningly accurate. But he needs data. He needs to see more of the powers of the Principal to make a reasonably good calculation. So right after the acquisition of the Throne, Arthur called me. And you know what he said?"
The group waited for Alean to answer.
"That we have no chance of winning. The Throne was not enough. We will have power, and right now, there is a ten percent chance that we could win against those Presiders. But ultimately, we won't survive the Principal. That's his calculation." Alean explained.
"Arthur hasn't told me that, Miss Alean." Kristine frowned.
"You think he will tell anyone? He hasn't even told Seeker or anyone else. He told me that I was one of the people who could change it because of my power. Do you know what I replied to him?"
"That you know a way? Is this why we are here? Zeraphine is the key?"
"No" Alean shrugged.
"Truth is, when Arthur called me, I already felt that a few weeks ago. My powers in Zone have gotten stronger, and I am sure we don't stand a chance of winning this battle. We can fight and defeat the Presiders, but I knew we wouldn't stand a chance against the Principal, just like Arthur. So I told Arthur, I don't know how to fix this."
Charm, Kristine, and Lara felt their stomachs turn and their world spin.
Alean was serious. They can't survive.
"But that's why we are here. When we fought Garenjazz, I drained all my energy in Zone. I couldn't see anymore. My vision ended there. Yet here we are. Alive. Because of things that Arthur could not predict and things that I could not feel. So I'm here to make a reckless gamble. The second Beast of Daniel is on its way here. No matter what path of right planning and suggestions I make, it will lead to defeat. So I'm here to throw the gaming board out. I need an unexpected element that will add more randomness and changes on the battlefield. And that is you, Zeraphine. You're going to be free."
"Miss Alean! She's a Presider! And she is under that curse of the Primordial! It's not something we can talk her into! She will betray us!"
"That's why I brought you here, Kristine! Touch her. Use your path to settle her emotions down. Keep her calm." Alean ordered.
Kristine was surprised and moved closer and touched Zeraphine.
"Zeraphine. Seeker truly loves you. He does. Garenjazz tells us that you are the daughter of a Prime. Then you probably have seen more than what Principals see. Seeker is a tool of the Lost Primordial. He is from the future. And in that future, he loved you, and you betrayed him. You killed his friends and nearly caused the defeat of the Unlocked armies."
Kristine and Charm were shocked that Alean chose to reveal this truth!
"Miss Alean!" Kristine exclaimed as she moved and lost contact with Zeraphine.
"General!"
Lara did not know this and was also startled.
Seeing the reactions of the two, Zeraphine realized that Alean had just revealed the greatest secret of their army!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
