Chapter 605 A Presider Of Equal





The small hovercraft was being dismantled and reverse-engineered right inside the belly of Latias.

Up in the head, where the Bridge of the ship was hidden in a dimensional pocket that existed within the head of the Latias.

The team sought a place to hide and dug itself down on the ground and used Dug Down Deep to hide within the thick crust.

Before them were several Pioneers who began to explain what they had seen and experienced during the Presider Wars. The Conqueror that rose to power was an unexpected Low-Tier.

They saw the videos and watched the desperate escape of the Pioneers to the surface.

The problem was that many knew of Commander Ninalet, who served at the side of Presider Haresha and began to chase after her.

The tale of Commander Ninalet gave the team a perspective of how it is to live in a society of Presiders. Ninalet was one of the seven most trusted Pioneer that served Presider Haresha. Haresha was forcibly tossed into the crucible of the trip, hoping that she would die. However, the family that Haresha served did not want her to be the person who would inherit the best techs of their family and planned to focus everything on one Presider.

But the laws were set, and she was entitled to one, and their family could not kill their own. And so, the plan to send her on to the ship destined to go through a Presider War was set.

"When the revelation was revealed that a Presider War was set, no one was there to make an alliance with Presider Haresha. She had a simple tech of Low Tier value. Her eyes could peer through the dimensions."

"Basic Presider's Sight? That tech?!" Madelyn was surprised at the chosen tech.

"That sounds powerful. Why is it weak?" Lennox V 3.3.0 asked.

"Not everyone is as smart as your folks. That tech is practically useless. Many sought that tech ages long ago. But out of all of them, none ever rose to prominence. A Presider's choice is theirs to make. And I could imagine her Presider family's reaction when she picked that tech. Everyone hoped to create and use this tech to develop something and create powerful weapons. But it's not. No one can make devices or techs simply by seeing them. The eyes are yours, and no machine can interpret or see what you are seeing. In the end, Presiders and those like me who are close to becoming one consider that useless." Madelyne explained.

"Useless?" Rai chuckled.

"Ah... So being a Conqueror is similar to being an Overcomer." Seeker nodded.

"Exactly. The perspective of those who can't conquer or overcome is quite shallow." Lennox V 3.3.0 added.

"That eye would be a cool thing. If I had it, I wouldn't be so afraid fighting Presiders." Cliff thought.

"With that power... I could trick people into marching into their deaths!" Lowengren laughed.

"...?" The Pioneers were all confused as the group discussed.

"Why?" Ninalet finally asked.

"You guys think of using that to create techs, right? But... if she's anything like me..." Meryl chuckled.

"She took that weapon and realized she could use her sight to survive Mid to Top Tiers attacks. They all employ techs that diverge and alter the three dimensions."

"But that's useless! How could you survive even fighting a fellow Low Tier?" Madeylne asked.

"And that's where you differ from Conquerors. You see, a Conqueror won't aim for a Low Tier. That's pathetic. I'd go for a Top Tier." Seeker boasted.

"I'd probably do a Mid Tier." Cliff sighed.

"You'd die!"

"No. We won't. Ninalet, did your master ever shy away from a battle between Mid-Tiers and Top-Tiers?"

"...No. It is as you said. She avoided Low Tiers but would dive into the shocking battles that tore the directions between Mid Tiers and Top Tiers!" Ninalet explained.

"Most who took this tech failed to see the use of this tech. It isn't tech. It's a skill. A battle skill." Seeker explained.

"...And that's what she did. Wow. You guys really are conquerors!"

"Overcomers. We share Thrones." Seeker chuckled as he pointed at each other.

Madelyne was amazed. She could not help but think back to Pridgeon. He took the Devourer Suit because he wanted to take the opportunity and managed to acquire the powers of a Top Tier!

Lourca observed Madelyne from the back in secret and could not help but recall the days when the Lost Primordial was still alive.

"Will you remained allied to Pridgeon after this? Or will the hope of sharing thrones draw you to this side?" Lourca wondered.

"But you Pioneers shouldn't get all excited. Ninalet. Had it been you, would you have survived the path your former Presider took?

"No. I would have died long ago."

"Right. People like us who Overcome have the skill, the will, and the ability to accomplish these miracles. If I were a Presider, I wouldn't develop a tech. Instead, I'd perfect a weapon or skill to fight. I just need to master it. And if that has happened, then I would go into the heat of the battle and find a way to steal from everyone else. Which is stronger, a gun or a sword? The answer is the stronger wielder. It doesn't matter if it's a gun or a sword. It can kill."

"But to reach Top Tier means she also has the same power as Pridgeon." Lennox V 3.3.0 guessed.

"Yes. A devourer suit. Did she acquire techs at the defeat of a Mid Tier?" Seeker asked.

"No. She's still weaker. She will play it lowkey. It isn't that she's a coward or weak. She's just cautious. She would use her eyes to steal or take whatever she can and run away." Harker guessed.

"That's exactly what she did. She was known as the vulture for a time."

"And then, she challenged a Top Tier. Could it be a member of the Pig Five?" Lynd guessed.

Ninalet was quiet.

"Were you guys here? How do you know? You can tell the rest of the story from here!" Ninalet complained.

"Well, this is bad..." Cliff frowned.

"Why?" Vender asked Cliff.

"Idiot. The reason why Seeker and the rest could guess her actions is because that's what they would do! Don't you see? Right now, we are fighting against a Presider who is basically an Overcomer!" Gardo explained.

"Right. We are facing a Presider of equal to us Overcomers. That will, confidence, and the skill to back it up. This is probably why she didn't reveal us to the rest of the Presiders yet."

"She knows we're here?!" Meryl was startled.

"Meryl, think about it. Her basic tech is to see the dimensions! She probably knew when we arrived here. But she didn't do anything. If she alerted everyone, we would flee. But now, she's hunting us like prey." Lowengren explained.

"Oh, that makes sense. This means she saw us enter the ship... What a confident woman."

Ninalet's expression changed.

"Then... this means she's going to attack you?!"

"Definitely. But she can't be too eye-catching. If she's like us, she won't use her status as the strongest Presider to make huge and obvious moves. It could be done discreetly. I'm guessing many of her Pioneers, the ones that replaced you, Ninalet, would attack us.

"Well, she can try." Gardo chuckled.

"You don't understand! She now has the largest army of millions of Pioneers!"

"...Yeah. But we have Lowengren." Harker shrugged.

"Oh, thanks, Harker?"

"Seriously? I'm here, or Lennox or Rai, and you go for Lowengren?" Seeker frowned.

"He's already mastered using his lies in a battle between armies. Your squadron did its best to infiltrate and enter the circle of defenses of Lowengren. So many others aimed to bring down Lowengren, but with some flashy lights, the battle halted."

"Why?"

"...We all thought that Jesus had arrived," Harker admitted.

Everyone familiar with Lowengren had their mouth wide open.

Seeker recalled how he could not attack Eagle through the truth. To think that Lowengren would literally present himself as a false Christ to deceive many.

"Well, anyways... What's the play here?" Cliff asked.

"Well, we pretend to be unaware for now. Despite her ability to see through dimensions, it's not an omnisight that allows her to see everything. Lowengren. Let's see your power. We have to make this land more chaotic. You conquer a few Pioneer bases and try to gather information about the other Presiders. Me, Jake, Rai, and Irvana will head over to that base and rescue Ninalet's allies. And maybe after that, we could try fighting a Presider."

"Which one? We haven't even learned about the other Presiders?"

"Any will do. Harker, Lowengren... How long would it take for you to recruit an army to fight for us?"

"Hmm... Two days? Oh right... we're in space... I guess two 24-hour cycles."

"Two days?!" Madelyne and Ninalet couldn't believe what they were hearing.

"Two days? But it has to be an army capable of buying time for us to fight a Presider."

"Then probably five 24-hour cycles." Lowengren estimated.

"I'd need Gardo and Vender for that."

"Please take him." Guinevere's pleading voice was heard echoing throughout the ship.

"Then it's settled. Let's go. Ninalet, your hovercraft should now be finished with repairs, and a few of our techs are in it. Let's go get your family!"
