616  Fulfillment of the Horoscope

It was alarming.

Vender was not doing any of his eccentric things. He was not saying anything out of the ordinary. He was not talking about his favorite shows. He was just sitting there and struggling in pain.

"We'll have to see. I'll try to move my realm within Vender. Lynd and I were able to copy him for a second." Seeker spoke.

Lynd was lying down close by.

Lynd had his missions while Seeker was trying to infiltrate Cecilia, and they had successfully led the Presiders away after saving Ninalet's relatives.

He had just fought a great battle against a Presider and managed to escape and meet up with Seeker's team in their retreat.

But at the collapse of Vender, Lynd had to quickly end the story and imitate the power of Vender.

Seeker also helped, but the two of them received a tremendous backlash. It was as if their body was not cooperating with them, and every cell wanted to 'go on its own' to do 'whatever it pleased.' They held on and continued the broadcast and managed to imitate Vender's power for a few seconds before Lynd collapsed to near exhaustion.

Seeker spread out his realm, and Lowengren and Harker tried to use the spreading Realm to sense Vender.

Vender quietly sat down, not complaining.

Lowengren and Harker could even feel the 'emptiness' of Vender. Not a trace of his power remained.

"This...!" Harker panicked.

"He's all out. I can sense it. It's a strange feeling." Lowengren explained.

"How can our Path be all out? Is that even possible?" Seeker frowned.

"In any case, that Presider is strong! And I thought Render would be a challenge." Lowengren was amazed.

Harker and Gardo were also confused about why Vender's power was defeated.

"Who has that power?" Seeker asked Cecilia.

Cecilia looked confused.

"What kind of power are we talking about? I don't exactly understand what's going on."

WARP!

A strange light appeared beyond the ship, and a figure fell down and crashed on the ground.

"What's that?" Gardo peeked out.

"It looks like a girl," Guinevere spoke.

"Scan her, Guin." Seeker ordered.

The ship drew closer and used its powers to detect the form of the woman.

"No Thrones. Is this a Pioneer or a Presider?" Gardo wondered.

"I can't detect any power from her similar to the Nefilus suit," Guinevere answered.

"It could be one that is like Cecilia."

"I don't remember anyone like her. And I know all the female Presiders except Haresha."

"Let's just take her in. Any information works from now on." Seeker decided.

Guinevere approached the wounded woman and drew her into the room.

Haresha could hear faint voices as her body began to recover.

"Are you alright?" The voice spoke again.

Haresha couldn't move as her body was in critical condition. Though her physical body was healed and well to the point that Seeker and the rest were confused why she was still unable to move, the reason was that her real body hadn't healed yet.

All traces of her defenses and the form of her Nefilus body used up its energy to heal the core body. But yet, her true form, which included the Nefilus Suit, was very damaged. So it was a miracle and such timing of great luck that she healed exactly all of her Nefilus Suit and deceived the team of Seeker.

Haresha was confused but recalled what had happened.

"...Ex...plosion...?" Haresha mumbled

"She's alive. I don't understand why she's like this. Is she in shock?" Guinevere pondered.

Through their memories, everyone present could easily act as a licensed doctor with advanced specialization. They were also taught and trained to perform procedures to master this craft.

"No. It's the soul. Her soul is incredibly weak."

"...Then it could have been that a Presider attacked her. Many Presiders here can easily attack the soul. I hear Presider Renkerdis, who was called Enderks on Earth, could do that."

"Then let me try..." Seeker reached out and held his hand onto Haresha.

The souls of Seeker acted out and began to add a layer of Soul to Haresha.

Haresha sensed the two souls.

"...Gemini!" Haresha mumbled again. But then she realized she was talking out loud and pretended to mumble strange things.

But she was starting to feel afraid. Two twin souls had her life up close. She then recalled her Horoscope. This was the twin that she had to be afraid of!

She was panicking, but her body was too weak.

"Seeker! I am sensing a Presider moving here!"

"It's got to be that Render! He's not done searching for us yet! Jake! We'll use your power. Swim down the ground and find us a hiding spot within the mountains! Guinevere, shrink the ship as much as possible!" Seeker ordered.

As the Unlocked team moved as commanded, Haresha was stunned. She tried to open her eyes and could finally see the room where she was.

She saw the strange ship dive down and a Throne glowing as many others were passing on their power to him.

Jake led the ship to dive down into the ground, and they began to swim through the soil.

"...Pisces. My future..." Haresha mumbled again, but no one cared anymore.

The massive ship entered the mountains and found a cave within. As the world within the Orbital was naturally forming, even the mountains had caves where everyone could mine. The ship stopped, and Lowengren was using his power.

"I am a rock. I am a rock!" Lowengren began to chant as Guinevere began to change the formation of the ship.

Render was moving close by and continued to seek anything that he could attack.

"First Haresha and then that Porrelom... And here I thought I was getting close to finding the trail!" Render was moving in haste and scanned the location.

"Some large Pioneer groups are hidden close to the mountain... And a rock." Render noticed. Render was too blind to notice the peculiarities of his words that he would take notice of a rock.

But he made the quick decision and attacked the fortress of the Pioneers to find the earthling.

Haresha was recovering, and she quickly stopped her Nefilus suit from recovering itself.

She realized that, just like before, her Horoscope had led her to a place where she really needed to be!

She went out to stop Render from attacking and moving, which would have kept Seeker's team in one place. And when she went out, she found a gathering of the strongest which even included Principal Dormin. But her confidence to stay and listen allowed her to understand the truth that even Principal Dormin was affected by the strange power!

Though in the end, Perrolom made a guess and landed a powerful at her, she managed to escape.

Because she was using a powerful invisibility that cleared her of any presence, which included the fourth dimension and the fifth dimension, her Nefilus body was without any defenses. The attack destroyed it and forced the suit to give up its form and hide within the stars of Astrology to slowly grow once the stars are properly aligned.

"Render has left. It seems he finally... gave up. What happened?"

"We don't know. But our issue is fixing Vender. We need his power! It's possible that Principal Dormin will regain his power and see the future once more!"

Haresha was amazed. Her eyes were barely open, but she could see the person of concern.

"That man... is the source that caused everyone's power to disappear? Vender? Isn't that the name of the main character in that cheesy love story?!" Haresha was quietly pondering.

"I... don't think we have to worry for now," Lynd answered as he weakly sat on his throne.

"Why?" Seeker asked.

"I can feel it. Vender's power is out there. And I can feel that strange power faintly returning. Right now, someone is using Vender's power. Perhaps it was... the Presider that made that strange dimensional attack."

Haresha recalled Porrelom's words. He thought he had found the source of the strange anomaly! Many would have disregarded this, but Haresha knew that Porrelom's power was dangerous. His guesses were more often right than wrong. It was possible that he somehow found and took in Vender's power!

"The Pioneer seems conscious," Guinevere informed.

Haresha tried to calm down. She recalled the Horoscope. She needed just to stand her ground. Haresha decided. Her efforts these past months after the Presider War was focused on how to survive the Principal's plan to devour them. And now, she had found her ride!
